Old heads how mad were u when Smif-N-Wessun pulled this stunt.....

[Yehuda]

I hate when this happens in the industry.

^^^ That's why I fukk with Black Moons - "Diggin In Dah Vaults" HEAVY

Probably my favorite project by them.

It used to be crazy because nikkas would buy albums thinking the video version of the song was on the album and get pissed. Like Crossroads lol.

You brought back memories on that one. I had E. 1999 on cassette and said “what the hell”. I actually have come to prefer the original but I bought that tape for the radio version

 

[Mr. Negative]

not having this on da shinin

I was disappointed.

But I wasn't mad.

5* album

 

[Mr. Negative]

for real. I knew this was a 5 mic album the first time I heard it.

First single, too (that didn't make the album)



pure NY to somebody from Mississippi who only knew fields and woods and Joliet/Chicago slums


edit: honestly it makes sense this didn't make the album. This a pure Summer song. Dah Shinin is Winter.




Honestly the first rap album to make me go

and this was AFTER/DURING 94/95 when I had gone through the Illmatics, Wu Tangs, Redmans and OutKasts.

Only album I hold in higher reverence for that time is Resurrection by Common (changed my perception of music in general)

 

[En Sabah Nur]

This shyt wasn’t really hot like that.

Lies. The only BCC single and video from 95-96 that got more play than this was Leflur Leflah. And the "I shine, you shine" parts that they also used for Mary J's single were definitely hot and known by people that didn't even know Smiff N Wessun like that, especially girls

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

Brownsville nikka… Don’t let me catch you in mother Gaston it’s on sight

 

[Bboystyle]

Evil Dee said they always did remixes for their singles. That was a BCC thing. Same with Black Moon.

This dropped almost a year after Dah Shinin' was released. So there was no way it could've been on the album.

Black moon worldwind is a classic.. gotta add that to my rotation

I don't even care if that song on its own was pretty good. I hate the OG Crossroads just cuz I expected the video version.

 

[wizworld]

For all y'all saying the remix was too smooth just be happy this didn't work

Wreckognize was mid at best for them at that time bc it was poppy. Cats understood bc they was finally getting a budget (atleast that was the impression). It wasn’t like we was hating. The mjb remixes were all bangers in the mid 90s she couldn’t miss

 

[Awesome Wells]

THIS, not being on the album is the true travesty. Might be my favorite S-n-W song

Definitely one of my favorites from them.

Perfect vibe for Dah Shinin' too. They threw it on white label vinyl, and you had to search all over to find it back then. Craziness!

 

[MurderToCassette]

Reminded me too much of these folks who were catering to a West Coast/National Audience

The West Coast Remixes

How is this a west coast remix? Knowledge Me is as New York as it gets

I remember he told me I had to hold the liner nots in the mirror then tells me I just got ouijiee cursed. man I was SHOOK his bytch ass had me sleeping with onions and garlic under my mattres on some dumb shyt.. mom found them and was BIG MAD.

That was on Mary's album tho. they were just a feature
