when this dropped, I was in college dating a guy from the Bronx...we were in North Carolina in school.....All the NY crews thought they owned Hip Hop again.....i can't front...this song brought NY back to life....lol..We were in Club Rockafella in Charlotte and they had the whole club lit when this came on.....He was like "babe, this is real music"....damn I fell in love with him that night...and we had been together about a year....first time we partied together and it was beautiful...and yes I smiled while typing this.
Black Rob's "Life Story" was probably the most underrated platinum album in rap history. That album was a straight classic, especially for real hip hop heads. Everybody knows "Whoa:" and think he was a one-hit wonder without listening to that full album. Everything from "B.R." to "Can I Live" to "Jasmine" to "I Dare You" to " You Don't KNow my Name" was all banging. "Espacio" was a nice lil pop tune and then obviously "Whoa". That album was a classic.
Damnn , i was listenning to this.... 1:30 in i just get a flashback of the first time i heard this beat. I was in high school, this shit blue my mind! The whole track actually, Black rob's raspy voice is perfect for this beat! "My niggas live the fast lifeee..comme through in the porshe slow like whoa"
lol why you think all of his artists went and found god? cause they saw some sick homosexual satanism shit and freaked out n dipped out n ran to go get jesus frfr
This shit brings me back. This whole album was my shit! Lil punks these days wouldn't know a good track if hit em in the skinny jeans. Of course they might like that... Hip-Hop 1990-2001 R.I.P.
+dirtyplaya i hated when those puffy mofos sat next to me on the bus/train I remember I stereotyped guys based on their coat to ask them if they sold tree the puffier the better the tree haha
None of these kids will ever know how good we had the music between 1995-2005
