    All these years I never knew Kay Gee produced this, but hearing it now, those drums do sound very “19-Naughty-3”.

      one of the things i missed about old school hip hop, the east coast had that old school jazzy flavor in their beats and the west coast had the funk in theirs, the instrumentals were truly art

    This beat brings a tear to my eye....it's crazy because it has such a 90s vibe and it reminds me of my childhood growing up, but now being a father all can see is my daughters face when I hear this and her growing up through the years and what she has become....❤❤😢😢

    "U.N.I.T.Y."
    Uh, U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity
    U.N.I.T.Y., love a black man from infinity to infinity
    (Who you calling a bitch?)
    U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity (You gotta let him know)
    (You go, come on here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., Love a black woman from (You got to let him know)
    infinity to infinity (You ain't a bitch or a ho)
    U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity (You gotta let him know)
    (You go, come on here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., Love a black man from (You got to let him know)
    infinity to infinity (You ain't a bitch or a ho)
    Instinct leads me to another flow
    Everytime I hear a brother call a girl a bitch or a ho
    Trying to make a sister feel low
    You know all of that gots to go
    Now everybody knows there's exceptions to this rule
    Now don't be getting mad, when we playing, it's cool
    But don't you be calling out my name
    I bring wrath to those who disrespect me like a dame
    That's why I'm talking, one day I was walking down the block
    I had my cutoff shorts on right cause it was crazy hot
    I walked past these dudes when they passed me
    One of 'em felt my booty, he was nasty
    I turned around red, somebody was catching the wrath
    Then the little one said (Yeah me bitch) and laughed
    Since he was with his boys he tried to break fly
    Huh, I punched him dead in his eye and said "Who you calling a bitch?"
    (Here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity (You gotta let him know)
    (You go, come on here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., Love a black woman from (You got to let him know)
    infinity to infinity (You ain't a bitch or a ho)
    (Here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity (You gotta let him know)
    (You go, come on here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., Love a black man from (You got to let him know)
    infinity to infinity (You ain't a bitch or a ho)
    I hit the bottom, there ain't nowhere else to go but up
    Bad days at work, give you an attitude then you were rough
    And take it out on me but that's about enough
    You put your hands on me again I'll put your ass in handcuffs
    I guess I fell so deep in love I grew dependency
    I was too blind to see just how it was affecting me
    All I knew was you, you was all the man I had
    And I was scared to let you go, even though you treated me bad
    But I don't want my kids to see me getting beat down
    By daddy smacking mommy all around
    You say I'm nothing without ya, but I'm nothing with ya
    A man don't really love you if he hits ya
    This is my notice to the door, I'm not taking it no more
    I'm not your personal whore, that's not what I'm here for
    And nothing good gonna come to ya til you do right by me
    Brother you wait and see (Who you calling a bitch?)
    (Here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity (You gotta let him know)
    (You go, come on here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., Love a black woman from (You got to let him know)
    infinity to infinity (You ain't a bitch or a ho)
    (Here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity (You gotta let him know)
    (You go, come on here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., Love a black man from (You got to let him know)
    infinity to infinity (You ain't a bitch or a ho)
    What's going on in your mind is what I ask ya
    But like Yo-Yo, you don't hear me though
    You wear a rag around your head and you call yourself
    a "Gangsta Bitch" now that you saw Apache's video
    I saw you wilding, acting like a fool
    I peeped you out the window jumping girls after school
    But where did all of this come from?
    A minute ago, you was a nerd and nobody ever heard of ya
    Now you a wannabe... hard
    You barely know your ABC's, please
    There's plenty of people out there with triggers ready to pull it
    Why you trying to jump in front of the bullet (Young lady)
    Uh, and real bad girls are the silent type
    Ain't none of this work getting your face sliced
    Cause that's what happened to your homegirl, right? Bucking with nobody
    She got to wear that for life (Who you calling a bitch?)
    (Here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity (You gotta let him know)
    (You go, come on here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., Love a black woman from (You got to let him know)
    infinity to infinity (You ain't a bitch or a ho)
    (Here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., U.N.I.T.Y. that's a unity (You gotta let him know)
    (You go, come on here we go)
    U.N.I.T.Y., Love a black man from (You must let him know)
    infinity to infinity (You ain't a bitch or a ho)

    Okay, I had to do it. I'ma drop my own version of this classic. Peep the acronymized concepts of each verse. Hope you like....Oh, and mad props to the originator; the legendary Queen herself.
    Verse 1:
    The world is cursed with enough infamy
    enough people are portraying misogyny and misandry
    the madness and mayhem is getting more intolerant
    apparently we need upliftment and empowerment
    so this is food for thought between you and I
    let me break down the concepts of U-N-I-T-Y
    Utmost Nobility Inspires Tender-hearted Youngsters
    when kids display manners it's mainly a stunner
    or a shocker; don't be misled chivalry ain't dead
    dispensing positive pleasantries will get you ahead
    teach kids that there's respect need to be shown
    steer 'em the right way they might initiate on their own
    no one's telling you to suck up, be a brown-noser
    or a sycophant, don't be like none of these posers
    if people would instill and unleash magnanimity
    the world would probably have less calamity
    [Queen Latifah Hook]
    Verse 2:
    Word to all of you this is concept number two
    if you only knew this goes out to dispicable crews
    Uncivilized Nimrods Imprecate Threats Year-round
    people like these are so easily found
    countries at war combating with each other
    psychos inflicting bloodshed on sisters and brothers
    these kind of people are on one accord
    destroying peace and harmony 'til the point it can't be restored
    all the villainous people truly need to scatter
    forget race and color because all lives matter
    we gotta diffuse the tyranny and oppressive energy
    why shall we fall victim to all the enmity and misery
    take the evil out of people so we can finally unite
    cuz' the destruction and opposition is simply not right
    [Queen Latifah Hook]
    Verse 3:
    I'ma end this off on a conscience note
    a little self-awareness is what I'm about to promote
    Uproot Nefandous Indulgences Troubling Yourselves
    your well-being is the priority of nobody elses
    drugs and alcohol can cause great alarm
    eventually these 2 things can produce bodily harm
    greed and materialism is a threat for sure
    it can make attitudes and intentions become impure
    temptation comes in all shapes and forms
    let it manifest in your heart; good judgment will get torn
    if you don't help yourself how can someone help you?
    keeping yourself together is the biggest job to do
    in life you gotta be physically and psychologically healthy
    you know obstacles can be tangible or stealthy
    remember you have to be your own advocate
    depending on other people you'll eventually regret
    [Queen Latifah Hook]
