Cube and Das- The video and quotables put it over the top. The female security guard. I make dough but don't call me dough boy. Used to be the Don Juan now your name is just Twan.

although i have like the puff and mase as time has gone by after not being a big fan of the record for some reason

 

[Knights89]

if you say this is the GOAT hip hop song, no arguments from me. The beat is till a monster and lyrics are greatness.

A child is born with no state of mind
blind to the ways of mankind....

Melle Mel dont get enough shine



ironically they were hesitant to do the song at first, but thankfully they did it. A true game changer
