While I know that the idea of someone covering this beat better than Biggie is just preposterous, this is the beat I always think of when I click on the acapella, so I just put them together for the hell of it. There's a few sketchy parts here and there, and the name sucks, but I'm pretty satisfied with the end product.
This was made using Pete Rock's "Juicy" and Tupac's "Cause I Had To".
It was all a dream...
EDIT: Yes, I know the production credits on the album go to Puffy and Trackmasters, but they're fucking thieves. Pete made the beat, Puff heard it, ripped it, stole the credit. Trackmasters and Puffy will burn in hell for beat-jacking and trying to pervert Jay Electronica.
Oddisee is one of the many up-and-coming beatmakers in this new wave of production whose ability and raw talent is truly jaw-dropping. Just skip over Asher Roth's verse. Yuck. Arby Wan Kenobi
