Tunnel banger! According to long-time Tunnel DJ Cipha Sounds—he warmed up the crowd for Flex & broke a lot of new records until Flex would give him the “shoulder tap”—”Part II” ripped everything.” From the opening “to all the killers and the hundred dollar billas” line to the unbelievable rawness of “rock you in your face, stab your brain with your nose bone,” this Mobb Deep anthem not only smashed in the aforementioned, storied NYC Sunday night party, but remains one the BIGGEST records to come out of the city in the ’90s. S/o to Havoc for the beat also, how he flipped Herbie Hancock’s “Jessica” is just mind blowing. This is a special 45 pressing courtesy of Get On Down. Includes “Parts 1” and “Part 2.”
