That Main Source cut was one of my all-time favorite hip hop joints! I developed a crush on Large Professor from that point on.

And I remember when Steezo used to be a backup dancer for EPMD.

Man, I'm about to cry over Funky Dividends. One of my favorites from back in the day.

What I would like to find is the original song the beat is sampled from. I remember hearing it a couple times on the local AM "old school station" (remember them?)

Any help would be appreciated...
