  6. This Sound Like They Made This Beat On “My First Piano”. Hella Weak But Kiss And Joell Killed Their Verses. Everybody Else Can Sit That Ass Down. PRONTO.

  7. Leave the classic alone. I agree wholeheartedly with Meka.

    It’s one thing to sample the track, it’s another to sing the same chorus while replacing “California” with “New York City”. What’s worse is… it’s a track that will be forgotten in a month, so it’s a lame track to attempt a resurrection of sorts.

  17. “It’s one thing to sample the track, it’s another to sing the same chorus while replacing “California” with “New York City”.” J

    Co-sign, change the chorus, like: [with Fatman Scoop]
    “I’m from NYC, NYC… hey hey hey hey,
    New York City, New York City… ohh ohh”

    but well Jadakiss > Joell Ortiz > Maino > Swizz Beatz > Jim Jones

  21. what none of you faggots seem to realize is that the original is a straight jack of roger troutman, so it wasn’t really dre’s to begin with. yall are soooo lame and you know nothing about music or hip-hop.

    fuckoff said this on March 15th, 2011 at 1:29 pm

  22. Lame. Not because of the MCs or because it’s about NYC but because they used this beat. Nobody will ever be able to top the original. I agree with Ryu: this makes NYC look desperate. Play the original side by side with this and tell me with a straight face that this comes close.

    fucka swisscheesebeat said this on March 15th, 2011 at 10:55 pm

  27. blow….. nintendo

    geezus, these punches needs to STOP, and Swizz should get a lifetime ban from any microphone..

    Fickle fans hating on Ja Rule, but I’ll tell you this much, any Ja Rule single is better than 98% of mainstream singles coming out today.
    No hate though, I see good things happening atm, so I truly believe it will change for the better.

    In the meanwhile, I’ll be bumping ‘New York’ and the new CunninLynguists album.
