thumbs up if you used to listen to this back in middle/high school....back when kanye ,lupe, pharrell/n.e.r.d., common were releasing dope music and collaborations.
I'm a huge ATCQ, Lupe, Pharell [and Ye (CRS)] fan (especially in the 07' era). Seen all of them live. ... I started skating because of Lupe... I played The Cool so much that it skips... "WHY DID IT TAKE ME 14 YEARS TO DISCOVER THIS REMIX?" 🙈 #ashamed
One of the best remixes/collabs ever made in Hip Hop. Everyone here contributed some of their best work. Pharrell had his best verse I've ever heard from him and QTip sounded as good as he did on classic Tribe records. Still listening in 2023.
Whenever I'm in the airport, song plays in my mind. This is also a great song to play when you're in the car on a calm road trip, or riding on a train.
“My hood's in disrepair with no schools in it All the food ain't got no fuel in it So crude, that's why I'm duelin it” One of the greatest writers ever
"Remain upper tier/tear ain't no cryin down here/ only shed is in the backyard with the tools in it"- wow. Listening to Lupe makes me have to step my rhyme game up. I'm not ashamed to say so either.
the thing about lupe on any remix that he's on, whether it's his own or he's featured and no matter how hard the artist(s) is on the song, he WILL NOT let you outdo him whatsoever. his verse proved that, period.
yo they really just dont make them like they used to. I totally appreciate new music, but I guess being that I was a teen when this was out, it really makes me feel so nostalgic.
@SuperLegendaryone Agreed. On this track Q-Tip is the teacher - love anything he records!! Have to give props to all the artists though - overall MASSIVE track with true poets!
oooooooohhhhhhhh mmmmmyyyyyyy gggggggoooooooooddddddddd!!!!!!!! this beat was made for Q TIP. best remix ever. two of the best mc's of all time... no matter the era 90's or 09's, incredible....
@XthestreetsX im tellin you this dude lupe crazy thats why i listen he makes me think when you think about a line you be like damnnnn!!!! like he said in lupe the killa "i wave till i come back like a tsunama" think about that
This actually inspired to get my passport no cap I went to Tokyo and everything. Still traveling.

Moments in time.
You gone make me cry lool I had all of them on my Zune in Middle school.
Hell yeah, my freshman year of high school. Lupe, Kanye and Common dropped albums. I just discovered A Tribe Called Quest too, good ass memories
glow in the dark tour.. lupe n.e.r.d rihanna and kanye!!
Pharrell killed it
A true lyricist
Sarah Green’s verse is highly underrated.
fr she got a beautiful voice
Loved every feature from her❤
Pharrell and Q-Tip need to do an album together.
damn q-tip sounds so natural on this beat. it has a very tribe-esq feel to the beat. lupe kills it AGAIN goddamn!
was just thinkin that
Because it is, Dilla dog and Tribe Quest dropped so many Gems_#

BLAM‼️
I'm just finding this out in 2023 imagine how I feel lol
bro it took me 17 years! just discovered it today, how crazy is that??
Q tip's flow on this is just so tight.
Is it me or did Q-tip really spaz out on his verse because it was so hot
He did
Absolutely spazzed out. The way he started rhyming Serengeti… Lupe’s last verse “like Revere, revere”… still here 17+ years later
How come I NEVER knew this existed! omg
Same!
Glad it found you
Girl Me & You Both
man clicked ts fast asf😂
You had to be there digging through samples
Q-Tip's voice fits perfectly.
i say q-tip killed this. he teared it up with that flow hes a beast.

After listening to this song, I'm going to renew my passport.
Q-tip is my favorite rapper hands down
Whenever I'm in the airport, song plays in my mind. This is also a great song to play when you're in the car on a calm road trip, or riding on a train.
One of my fav Lupe verses. He flowed over it so crazy and I love the bars.
One of my favorite remixes of all time tbh.
this beat was made for abstract
Q-Tip is a legend.
Q-Tip on this remix made this 100x better. this was made for him
Took the advice and travel changed my life fr
we need this in spotify bro !
They all killed it
2 words: Sarah Green! SALUTE to Greatness!
I used to listen to this everyday in the eighth grade
Omg Pharrell And Tip Killed This
I used to bump this all the time back in the day. Glad Tyler brought this up, we need a Lupe x Tyler collab!!!
Nah fuck Tyler, and his weird wack ass
It'll sneak up on you like it's Metal Gear... I love this man.
“My hood's in disrepair with no schools in it
All the food ain't got no fuel in it
So crude, that's why I'm duelin it”
One of the greatest writers ever
I would have been a different person if I heard this 15 years ago..
Q-Tip owns this beat!
Pharrell floated/elevated over this track.
This shyt should be on DSP's. Love this joint so much......timeless!
this is my song! everybody did a hell of a job on this and the collabo is genius
Classic, Qtip is awesome on this track.
Boy I love me some Pharrell stream of consciousness with some falsetto 😅
that's why i like lupe. he references shit you wouldn't think of.
Lupe is just a lyrical genius
Forever.
2024 needs this
Real shit
They all KILL it in this remix....Dope!
Sarah Green murdered her part. Might be my favorite bit
It's dope asf and a classic one imho and all of them did well too.
I can’t even get past Pharrell bars, he be coming off
Q tip was sick but if you didn't think pharrell was good then you're dead wrong
Shpat77 pharrell a verse was my favourite! Genius!
This is hella dope asf and tbh Lupe Fiasco and Q-Tip should've collaborated together because it would've 🔥🔥
My first time listening to this, like 16 YEARS AFTER KNOWING ABOUT THE ORIGINAL ❤
"Remain upper tier/tear ain't no cryin down here/
only shed is in the backyard with the tools in it"- wow. Listening to Lupe makes me have to step my rhyme game up. I'm not ashamed to say so either.
Sarah green is good I wanna hear more of her
"Remain upper tier (tear), aint no crying down here
Only shed is in the back-yard with the tools in it"
Wasalu is such a beast!
12 yrs oh man! Gotta love this version.
How have I never heard this??? 🔥
I’m saying though!!!!!
the thing about lupe on any remix that he's on, whether it's his own or he's featured and no matter how hard the artist(s) is on the song, he WILL NOT let you outdo him whatsoever. his verse proved that, period.
Thanks Tyler
Lonny Coldchain AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Truee
What did Tyler do?
Goku Vegeta Shared this remix on twitter
DatBronyBassist lol he posted it again today

STILL HERE IN 2024!!!❤❤❤
Appreciate Tyler, The Creator for postin this
yo they really just dont make them like they used to. I totally appreciate new music, but I guess being that I was a teen when this was out, it really makes me feel so nostalgic.
@SuperLegendaryone Agreed. On this track Q-Tip is the teacher - love anything he records!! Have to give props to all the artists though - overall MASSIVE track with true poets!
Shouts out to lupe....lil haiti ..305 Dade county
You sound like Robb Bank$
Dale
Shoutout to lil Haiti and dade county from Missouri
Pharrell had some sweet lines too. "I'm just ramblin, I ride my bike in the clouds, Speilberg hire at me at amblin" But Lupe's verse was ridiculous.
I still think Lupe killed it
I never knew this existed. Wow
what a gem
Aye... as much as I listen to the regular version... I've just now discovered this some of my favorite dudes! Omg 😍❤
This and the come close remix are classics. P KILLED this shit damn...!
