"Cuz I'd rather be tried by 12, than carried by 6".
Undoubtedly one of the illest rap beats ever. This is one of the crews that should get honorable mention at Hip Hop Honors, for the beat alone. I just saw Video Music Box again for the first time in years, so Uncle Ralph inspired me.
The intro is dumb long, but the video is on there.

Amen. The first time I heard that beat I was taken aback cos it takes balls to leave so much open space. You've caused me to dig out the remix EP--some of them are kinda corny, but some bring good things to the table, the Autechre one, for example.
I'd love to hear that Remix EP. Thanks for the check in.
No doubt.
http://www.ninjatune.net/ninja/release.php?id=100 is the label's site for the EP, though the realplayer links aren't working for me. CDUniverse lets you listen to bits of them all, but the samples don't correspond to the actual track. Amazon has it right, but ya can't hear 'em all. Hmm...
