First Person Shooter? Cole wasn’t the second nor biggest rapper

Amerikaz Most Wanted? Snoop had fallen off somewhat

Everyone else I can think of either didn’t hit the level of success they would or no longer occupied that spot

X & Jay was movie like. The only crime we didn’t get a video for the original

Despite no video for the original, I loved the remix with the video including Beans.....and Bleek.

At the time when the video was finally released, Cube was one of the biggest stars in the game, Public Enemy, marred by controversy was still one of the top 2 biggest groups(with NWA), and Kane had the ladies on lock while maintaining a solid male fanbase. 3 of the top acts at the time.

And contrary to the original post, neither Jay or DMX were the biggest in the sport when the song was made. Jay had gotten some success from his 2nd album, but it didn't put him over yet like the Annie sample(hard knock life).

:dahell:

Snoop hadn't fallen off at all at this point...He might not have had the same 1992-1995 buzz but he was still seen as a top 10 most popular rapper if not higher.
