"Poll question: What's your favorite Crooklyn Dodgers track?"


          

In 95, I think my Return of the Crooklyn Dodgers Vinyl saw more spins than any other single in my collection. Just re-listened to the original, and it's a toss up between the two.

Jeru just comes off so dope at the end of return... but the original feels so much more thorough.

The third version is garbage.

If you could only have one to keep....

9th wasn't the guy for that. Personally I'd have went to Large Pro or Pete Rock. Nothing against 9th at all.
But it's hard to pick between the first two. Tip version feels different than Primo's, and they both feel like they belonged with the movie they were attached to.

It feels so far removed from the first two. Why even bother. I honestly forgot there was a 3rd attempt until I wiki'd it.

2nd one isn't necessarily a better song, I just like it more. Gives me that screwface feel appeal, which is a closer representation to the Brooklyn I knew growing up.

Let my love slide in and never slip out

Had on repeat. When I heard there was a part couldn't see how they top it.

And yet they made something very different but complimented the first one so well. Both are awesome tracks. I don't even know if I heard this third one before.

Jean Grae's Crooklyn Dodger verse, much like "Ayo Tommy, my ring's outside".......

......some lines I'll try to avoid hearing again in the remaining days I'm alive.
