"We be to rap what 🔑 be to🔒."

[@vernonhampton6973]

They were SO ahead of their time, and it shows that this sounds as good in 2024 as it did at release.

[@briangitachu8621]

This song will be fire for all eternity!

[@ellawalton9986]

After 30 years they still got it❤❤❤❤

[@OneOfThePauls]

I'm so happy this is still a thing - this was the absolute bomb back in the day

I met them when they opened for Sade. They were so nice and just walking around the venue AND NOBODY RECOGNIZED them. But I did and they autographed my ticket stub. ❤

[@pizzalibrarian]

I am crying a little bit, this is so beautiful. The original came up in my feed and wow, look at them in 2023. Wow.

[@AwestaKhalid]

Funny, I was having a bad dream until this song popped into it, then I woke up bobbing my head. Had to chase this song down. Beautiful!

[@pookstascott7145]

[@thegniffen4645]

Oh yes! So fire!

[@ModPhreak]

Oh man, as a bass player and rap lover I have all their music and I would have played it on one of my 5 string fretless bases.

[@MicDropBBQ]

They need to join T.Pain on tour. This is a whole VIBE for a lounge crowd that just got out for the night and dont wanna be in a crowded club standing in line for 30mins for a drink. This is a waitress-at-the-table type of vibe!

[@bradharrah3339]
