the song is from 1997. I first heard it on a college hip-hop radio show back in the day. My boys and I lost it when they played it. Once we finally caught dude's name, we checked for him but he didn't have anything out. Found out a little late it was on a Tony Touch album. Never heard anything from dude in the way of a full CD, but I know yall come up with some good shit sometimes. If nothing else, it's an amazing beat to enjoy.

....its his best material and easily one of the best records from 1997 ...its Produced by the Vinyl Reanimators ...Check Out the Edo G EP from 1996 called "Acting" if you like the sound of this record
That comp was dope, I had already heard many of the songs on there due to me being an indie-rap nerd in that era but it collected a lot of the best stuff. I also dig the Natural Elements and Godfather on tracks a lot and there were some other good stuff. I remember that I HATED the G Dep song though...
not only that but duke had changed his style a bit and the producers on that lp completely bit the whole heatmakerz/just blaze/kanye sound of that era with their sped-up bootleg beats. that had me shaking my head and put me off the album quickly.
the best cuts were the bonus tracks which were his first and best songs, "Too Complex" and "It's Your Life".

Putting that 6 year old track on his album is the type of douchebaggery one would expect from a dude named "L Da Head Toucha". _________________________________________ The Combat Jack Show is the best hip-hop related internet radio show http://thecombatjackshow.com/
