about this song
Boston’s Guru and DJ Premier from Texas create a dedication to the home base of Gang Starr: New York City. They accent this ode to New York with a vocal sample from Long Island, New York MC Parrish Smith on EPMD’s “It’s My Thing.” DJ Premier said the following about the track: I was doing bass-line loops and wanted a hard bass loop to follow up the last joint. This was mainly to pay homage on how New York accepted us being even though we’re originally from out of town — I’m from Texas and Guru’s from Boston.
