I don't care if this makes me sounds like a rappity rap rap nerd, that's exactly what I am. If you're not feeling this "
They Say (Remix)" you don't actually love hip-hop. I mean, do you really get what's happening here? A track with
Rapper Big Pooh,
Phife Dawg (of Tribe Called Quest) and
T3 (of Slum Village)? It's the Rappers Who Don't Get Enough Credit Because of Their More Famous Group Members All-Star squad!
Or as the headliner himself puts it, "I wanted to do a remix that felt like when Pete Rock or DJ Premier used to remix records, give it a whole new feel. As I was listening to the track and thinking about the message, I reached out to two legends from legendary groups who's contributions and skills may have also been overlooked."
Motherfucking mission accomplished Pooh, and that beat by ellipses-enhanced producer
Focus... and some live scratching only makes it that much sweeter. This shit just made my day.
For the record, the remix is off
the mothership's 20/20 Music series, and
the original version will be featured on Pooh's
Dirty Pretty Things LP, due out Nov. 1.
