Best Jim Jones verse, the emotion...the pain :wow:

That verse is tough but I have to disagree

Both verses from Beautiful Noise were better
Both verses on Fly Boys are better
His verse on Come Home With Me is better
His verse on The Jects is better
His verses on Getaway are just as good
His verse on Bout It Bout It is just as dope

"I'm Ready" is tied with "You Oughta Know" for the dips best joint...

youngin's don't know the struggle when the snippet of "You Oughta Know" was played on on The Diplomats Vol. 4 and then the official album came out and it was nowhere to be found. :mjcry: wasn't til Duke Da God laced us with the full, CDQ version on his Harlem Classics lp 5 years later that we were able to finally eat...
