Funny this thread came up. I found an old hard drive with all kinds of gems on it. An RNB blendtape and a Pete Rock one called Pete Rock Invented The Remix. I'm uploading that shyt tonight when I get home.

I'll screenshot the folder. A lot of this stuff is from 07-2010. I also found a folder full of VLS files with a bunch of remixes I forgot about.

Lmao at the same damn time


My favorite song of all time, so props to both of you.

This thread could basically be renamed "Pete Rock Appreciation Thread". The crazy shyt about Pete is that alot of times, the original version is a classic all by itself, straight up banger, and he STILL manages to either out right destroy it or at least do it justice. He's handed DJ fukkin Premier his head on a platter everytime they've "battled" track for track. You know you're the official remix king when you can embarrass the greatest producer of all-time on like 4 separate occassions. But anyway, some of my fav Pete remixes:
