It was tight how Pac had K-Ci & Jojo, Aaron Hall and Danny Boy on the hook for Toss It Up

Dude had 4 R&B singers doing one hook, that shyt was so nice :wow:

And I always liked how this song didn't sound like nothing else in 1996 and not even the rest of the 90's.

Pac found a whole new sound with that 7 Day Theory album

:why:it was literally a remake of No Diggity.

"That was really a diss song [aimed at Dr. Dre]. They heard [“No Diggity” featuring Dre], and the next thing you know we was in the studio cutting it. We took the [Blackstreet] track. They wasn’t given nothing [by Dr. Dre]… We sang “Toss It Up” [over] the same “No Diggity” track, and [Blackstreet] did a cease and desist letter to us and stated that we couldn’t [release] it. So, that’s how the remix – the Makaveli that everybody had an opportunity to hear, that’s [why] the beat changed." - Danny Boy

Yeah, I know that now but at the time I didn't know and the beats don't sound the exact same.
