Sorry pal thats no music from "your days" that song is from my days when I was 5y.o. in '82... Its from Eddy Grant not from whoever covered it first in '97 There are tons of songs from even before my time covered over & over again...unfortunly 90% of the covers are garbage yet ppl who heard it the first time as coverversion & didn't (&some still don't) know the original love the version they grew up with or heard first... I don't know any 'modern' singer who didn't cover from old songs ('60 to '80) But in this case the cover version is really good/enjoyable & aceptable bc it wasn't ruined by the performer like many (most of the) other cover versions (or just main sequenzes of the musical part of a song)... Even 60% of the Jackson 5 were cover versions later covered again...songs like Ready or not/Fugees, Missy Elliots 'Suck it to me' from '96 as welloriginally performed in the late '60 beginning of '70... Or songs ike "The Riddle"/Nick Kershaw or Rhytm is a dancer/Snap for example & so on...they all got covered in the last 20 years & 99% was unbearable to listen to Miley Cyrus covered ol songs & the list goes on & on... But nothing to wonder about bc there are only a certain amount of tones + accords, so after decades its hard to do something completly new Time repeats itself & so does good music...
Takin it back to 97 before Ghetto Superstar Pras hit us with this from the Money Talks SDTK that was my movie this was my jam jus took me back. Classic late 90s Hype Williams video when the Fugees really were the shit.

That’s my tune right there… oh mannn this era hit different. So many good memories. We didn’t even realize music was gonna deteriorate up untill what’s left of it now.
Yeah bc 1/2 of the songs are cover versions of old/er songs...like this one - by the way Ghetto Superstar was performed by the Jackson 5 in the '70 & was allready a coverversion as they took on it, it just has another title... Its sad how less ppl know about music & songs origins these days...
That’s what I liked about the album. Lots of recognizable shout outs to older songs via lyrics and samples. The Grease is The Word sample on Blue Angels was awesome.

If he could actually rap anywhere near the level of guys like Mase and Rakim… maybe he would be rated higher 😂
