Throwback!



Sorry for the expletives in advance I couldn’t find a censored version! I know ya’ll remember this jam, and we all know the remix is better than the original. This is the typical video that would get rinsed out on Yo MTV Raps (an hour long music programme purposely for hip-hop music) -why was it aired so late and why did it get taken off?

Remember when artists would do a remix and the video’s would have a bundle of cameo appearances. Remember when Hype Williams was the only man you would go too to direct your music video. Remember when music videos were good and would demonstrate artist’s creativity. Oh how things have changed-sigh!

Puffy had to be first in the video to introduce the song along with his trademark dancing and appearance’s every 10 seconds. Was that his baby on his lap? Biggie Smalls doing what he does best. LL Cool J trying to create a fashion statement with his one trouser leg rolled up and his signature lip licking. Busta Rhymes when he was relatively slimmer, and way wackier. Rampage what ever happened to him? Irv Gotti before he became the master mind of Murder Inc. Benzino another rapper that fell off the radar, then again was he ever on it? I wonder where Craig Mack is now?
