Believe it or not, it's not Dilla. Actually it's Karriem Riggins. The biggest protege of Dilla... The chord changes that Karriem chopped up were from Billy Strayhorn's "Star-Crossed Lovers", which jazz pianist Geoff Keezer played them into Karriem's sampler during a soundcheck one day during their times as part of the Ray Brown Trio!
Let’s face it. This will forever be a classic. If not for just the ever present underground consensus but for all who know GREAT HipHop when they hear it. ✊🏿🖤✌🏿
this cut was a banger and great depiction of the music business and life in general,this cut still goes hard,slum village came with a strong message joint
..." I know true love is hard to find Just let it find you for real If you found love to keep it real Keep love from being tainted, being tainted And you'll be alright...."
2000-2004 were my high school years and 2002 was the funnest. This song was one of many that was the soundtrack to my life those years. It’s unfortunate that this video only came on Rap City.
i felt this on a spiritual level 😌 2002 I was in 7th grade, 2002 hands down funnest years of my life until 2003-2004, 8th grade was even more LIT & FUN AF! the fun just amplified. I somehow always sat next to The funniest kids EVER! Id go to classes i hated in a good mood just because I knew they'd be there so i kno ima laugh my ass off all day Lol. This song, This group brings back amazing, hilarious memories. I'd do anything to go back to middle school for 1min....good times
It wasn't that innocent you just have a short memory. You talking like it was the 1970s. We have social media and rap was declining. Not fully but it started to go down.
When I Was Young In My Teenage Years I Never Understood This Song, But Now Since I'm On A Higher Vibration....This Song Is One Of The Realest Ever And It's Still Relevant Till This Day....No Doubt About It!!!!
I didn’t understand it so much, that after a while I thought I might of made the song up 😭😭. I finally heard it on the radio the other day and got happy because I thought about this song all the time but never knew what they was saying.

It's crazy how the early 2000's gives me an old school nostalgic feel now. The early 2000s were underrated.
Fr tho
You ain’t lying.
Agreed!The BEST music ever came out in the early 2000s💯💯💯
I agree everyone talk about the mid 90s but not enough seem to remember how dope early 2000’s was.
Yup. I'm feeling old af and sometimes I wanna kill myself bc life is so hard but music saves me 🥲
ONLY DETROIT COULD'VE NOT ONLY DROPPED A CLASSIC, BUT THOSE WHO ARE FROM HERE CAN REALLY APPRECIATE THIS SONG

Indeed
RIP J DILLA WE MISS YOU. Hip Hop misses you 😢

Facts
Wayyyyyy better than any new rappers and producers alike period.
This is Art in its finest form
As of March 3, 2024, this joint is still 🔥 !
reminds me of the old 106 & park and rap city days
Jerome yeah huh! :)
Jerome I was thinking the same thing
Right bro? Feel sad for the new generation 😕
And Rap City!!
These were the days🎯🎯🎯
Still slaps in 2022!! 👆🏾🤝🔥🔥
That wasn't a slap, more like a one-shot molly-whop.
2023 now
Old tunes can’t be denied. Timeless!
Let’s face it. This will forever be a classic. If not for just the ever present underground consensus but for all who know GREAT HipHop when they hear it. ✊🏿🖤✌🏿
I love when neo-soul & hip hop Collaborate together
J dilla basically invented Neo Soul
Very beautiful combination 😍😇
'REAL HIPHOP '
@kehindeoyegunle8920 yup, what hiphop should've been.
❤❤❤❤ neo -soul & hip hop
13 years later and this track is still the reason why all the new school artists will forever struggle to match-up to SV. This is ART! RIP Dilla!
Im at 18 yrs still going
Facts!
Still Dope in 2022. 1 J Dilla
NO DOUBT!!!!!!!!!!!!
RiP DILLA
Dang..... Rest peacefully Batim... We miss you! Stellar song will never be forgotten
Takes me back to 8th grade, talking to my crush on the house phone, while blasting this lol..... 00's til I die.🔥🎶🎶
This was the track that introduced me to Dwele. The rest was history...
Same!!!
Kanye West introduced me to Dwele. I went back and listened to all his shii. He criminally slept on.😴🤦🏾♂️
RIP Baatin

Just did some digging at a vinyl swap meet and came up on a copy of this song for 3$
This song makes me miss BETs 106 & park. The early to mid 2000s were so innocent, no smart phones and social media. Good times!
It wasn't that innocent you just have a short memory. You talking like it was the 1970s. We have social media and rap was declining. Not fully but it started to go down.
can't believe this came out in 02..still here tho
18 years goes by fast dont it 💨
