New to me but maybe old to you. If those that didn’t know, I first heard this song on a sampler I got before Fishscale came out. I guess the song didn’t make it to the album b/c of sample clearance issues. So what I got for you today is the original full song and a remix from the Rhythm Roots all star. I am sure its a different remix than what’s on the Wallabee Champ. Personally, I like this remix the best. Also, Ghostface rares like this and this are a treat!

If you were up on KTL for last month’s 5 Days of Gangstarr, you know the drilly. This month I wanted to bless you with one of the most prolific and influential groups in our time of hip-hop. Loved by coffee chicks and white dudes, The Roots bring not only history of our culture to the masses but a bravery to expand its boundaries. So… for Day 1, I give you the links that we posted on KTL before with a little treat.

Based on my discussion with some readers, it looks like the Gangstarr fans are divided into two factions - the Primo-beat lovers and the Guru Stans. Gotta admit the Primo Posse is winning. Volumes 11-15 are next…

First, props go to KillahBeast for putting in the work. Both respect and admiration goes out for the amount of time it would’ve taken to get this together!
Each Day I will post 75 or more songs that either was a non-album GangStarr joint, remix by premier/guru, or an appearance by either of them. This is going to be crazy!
