Ha ha, true. I'm tired today and can't be bothered to defend 90s UK music that's one step away from trip hop. Will save it for another thread.

Another one I might be in the minority on:

 

[DB_Cooper]

Possum Tom said:I'm with Harvey far all but shut em down. That is notnonly better than the of, but probably one of the best remixes of all time.







Sayin' though. I didn't think that was even debatable.

Yep, there is a significant wing of rap fandom that says that. Y'all love Pete Rock like he's your actual soul brother #1 and all still own records and are very loud about your feeling on that one. In some ways, y'all are right...EXCEPT that plety could never replace the OG version of Shut em Down, an anthem in many ways with a great video that embedded it onto our brains, with ANY remix of it EVER.

I think it's you and me against the world on this one. But yeah, I've always liked the OG better. That intensity just can't be matched.
