i had my condo downtown in 97 accurate 2.2 cl first year it came out feeling like the *
which i had a lot a far way to go i had a long way to go until i was really the *
and grassroots were working on an album and they gave us a bunch of beats
well gave me a bunch of beats but i guess it was me and shot claire because they had asked
for a collaboration they wanted collaboration and had sent a bunch of beats on a cd
and i was you know all their beats are crazy but my favorite beat uh the grassroots is made up by
uh three cats mr murray mr attic and swift and it's mr attic who did old time killing and
wholeheartedly
bunch of other great songs um had this beat on his pager and he's notorious for having some of his
best beats as interludes so they're only like 15 seconds or 20 seconds or 28 seconds on a cd
or he'll just save it for his pager and that was the one that me and shot claire wanted
so we called his pager about a thousand times one saturday afternoon i assume it was a saturday
and wrote our verses to his answering machine and then went straight to the studio
and laid verses in one take maybe one and a half takes you know punch halfway through and that was
it we were so energized and so happy to be a part of that project and that the song came out
so well that we asked permission and were granted to put body language on the underground tapes lp
