Never Forget is a thread series where you and I - your host, Taadow - revisit some hits we may have placed in the attic of our minds. Today, Militia - "Burn".
"B-B-BUT WAS IT REALLY A HIT??"
Billboard Hot 100 Peak: #52
Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay Peak: #59
Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs Peak: #26
Billboard Rhythmic Top 40 Peak: #33
AFTERMATH:
- Some of y'all may be like "who the hell is this?"
Well, during the time many call the "Shiny Suit Era" when most everything was about shining
this was a West Coast group without any major co-signs having a hit out of nowhere. How?
The old fashioned way: make a song about weed!
- Two of the members of Milita got a couple extra minutes of fame added to this 15.
Ms. Toi is the female you may have heard on Ice Cube's "You Can Do It" later.
Mr. Tan was from Long Island, but he stayed on the West (Masta Ace Theorem) and you heard
him on Snoop Dogg & Tyrese's "Just A Baby Boy" from the Baby Boy Soundtrack.
- This song was produced by Emmanuel "Porkchop" Dean,
The alleged ghost producer of "Gin & Juice" and other Death Row tracks. Some ask:
"well if he made hits with Dre, then where's his hits without Dre??"
Here's one.
