  19. the live version is so much more happy n uptemnpo. this is good but the live version is much better imo. they should record it in studio how the performed it live and have it as an alternate version or something

  25. It’s too bad about the MCA situation and the Beasties pushing back their album, otherwise september might be the best month ever for hip hop between new roots, B3, wale, and OB4CLII
