that shyt was classic from the moment I heard it but I never cared for the lyrics, it was the hook and beat that did it

outside of a few tracks (hot damn), I never cared for the clipse. but this track.....:whew:

I know they were well respected, but I just never dug their style (coke rap punchlines)....I just never fukked with VA acts in general

Matter of fact, I fukkked wth the Sean Paul/Kardinal remix of Grindin a lot more. In Toronto, that's the version we fukked with

I heard it via the video the first time. I remember thinking what is this? :wtf:

Sounded so different than anything out. The first few times I heard it I thought the whole song should have sounded like the hook because it sounded too empty without the added layer.... then I heard it more and it sounded perfect the way it was.:whew:

Classic hip hop moment.

It was a little deeper than that as it progressed. They started playing on the whole kane and able thing... Started to get reflective as they started to see their people go to prison. For malice especially. They went on a solid run.

Excuse me if my wealth got me full of myself
Cocky something that I just can't help
Especially when the 20s are spinning like windmills
And the ice is 32 below minus the windchill
Filthy the word that best describes me
I just grindin man, y'all nevermind me

This is what I'm talking about. Aside from the conscious stuff, Malice had that clever, smooth arrogance

His verse on this still gives me the chills....




"Malice he think he hard, tough guy of the click
And Pusha he walk around like he swear he the shyt
You right on both counts bytch, Clipse is us
And there's a couple things that you don't discuss"

"I tried being humble, Humble get no respect
Now the first sign of trouble, that's a hole up in yo neck
But what I look like spending my nights in jail
I could never be a thug, they don't dress this well"


:whoo::wow:
