Dope track. I wish this would've seen some type of official release as opposed to some weak ass mix tape. I wonder what album session it was originally made for.

Severely underrated, I'd put it in top 20 Nas tracks easily. Lots of other dope songs on that project also. Joint with EPMD and Redman, No Love with MOP, also Mobb Deep feature, Hov, Loso, etc.

This is the official release. From Clue's "The Professional" album, shyt was fire for the most part. I think it even went Platinum, too.

Preferred the other one, "Live from da Bridge"

I had that album. It was Fab's debut. His song was called FABOLOUS. I think his rapper name was something else but they got mixed up and called him Fabolous and he ran with it afterwards.

The Jay-Z track is dope too. I always drop that when me and friends are sort of playing dope obscure tracks trying to impress each other. Everyone's always like oh, where is that from?!

It's funny, Loso got his way by mistake, yeah.

Overall dope project, lots of great features, even got DJ Muggs on there, that was unexpected, not sure if it ever went platinum but it did sold close to that if not.

I think Nas gives away some dope tracks for exclusives. He could've saved that one and gave Clue Big Girls or something like that. I always like to see his best stuff officially released on a Nas project. Maybe it will turn up on one of these Sony Legacy compilations that they do every couple of years where they pull at least one track that was not on his regular album releases.

There were some good songs on that Clue mixtape. Listening to these old songs makes me feel

Always loved this one from Nas too.
