If this track was originally planned for IWW then maybe the remix has something to do with the 25th anniversary re-issue.So much like Deja Vu, this was an early It Was Written cut that was mistaken for an Illmatic demo. Easy Mo Bee did the original beat.
Maybe Deja Vu is next...but then again, two of those verses on Deja are ones we've heard before
Nas - Life Is Like A Dice Game (feat. Cordae & Freddie Gibbs)
- Thread starter Dylmatic
- Start date

The old track is way better, the pocket on the beat got more swing, it don't got the voice in the beat, it just sound sterile, no soul
I'ma be honest, people have forgot how to make hip hop

I was thinking the same exact shyt as soon as the beat dropped. The muddiness and grit of the original is partially what made it so dope.
I'm speaking strictly on the production aspect of the track though.
The muddy sound does add to the dopeness, but that's not why I don't like, the beat itself its just too stiff, that that beat slapped on the original, head nodding shyt, the new beat is stiff, and it don't have voice in the background which was the dopest part of the damn beat
