    Somebody build a time machine so i can go back to the 90's 😭 where hip hop was actually performed by people with actual talent.

    So glad I grew up in that era of hip hop. We had fun, we danced, we dressed up when we went to the clubs, we dressed down when we were hanging outside the clubs...it was an amazing time.

    this is way better than the album version. the one on the album was slower, the samples weren't as clear and I think the words were a little different. I've been looking for this version cause it's the one I remember it's also the one that came out on the radio that's why the album version sounds foreign.

    This duo were so goddamn creative it’s insane. Not only was their album phenomenal and 5 mic worthy, but for every single they released they cut a totally new mix of each track just for the singles and videos - one of which ended up becoming their biggest hit and one of the biggest rap songs ever at that point. And on top of the songs, the videos are insanely creative and entertaining too. I can’t believe they burned out so quickly, they had so much potential and ability. Truly miss these guys.

    A fantastic song about trying to ditch an ugly girl you accidentally hit on at a club.
    Their music was full of vulgarity, misogyny, and sexual references that I didn't understand until at least 10 years later.
    It was brilliant.
