Nas’s name is on the liner notes for ‘Just Crusin’. I’m gonna take his word for it if he says he just pitched a few lines for Jiggy. :yeshrug:
Could be. But you know that’s how this industry is. There are people who make up what they call writing pools or they submit songs then the star get the song and get the credit.

That was a ahame that Will couldn't write Summertime It was a good song but it wasn't a lyrical masterpiece. I could've written a summertime vibe song like that.
it not being a lyrical masterpiece is part of the reason why its so good. Its chill, laidback, reminds you of the summers of the past :ufdup:

Not every rap song has to be some over the top lyrical spiritual miracle masterpiece.

But I will admit, Will Smith is not the rapper that we were led to believe he was from back in the day after finding out that he had Juice and Nas write some of his biggest hits.

Why would will Smith of all people lie about that. He like the most ginuine celebrity. He just copied his flow. He completely admits it in the video without hesitation l. If he say he wrote the record I beleive him. Anyone other than him I wouldn’t feel that way.

A timeless song. Almost 30 years old and still played at outdoor picnics by the uncle with the Bluetooth and leather sandals.
