Okay so here's what it is- For almost a year now, I've been requesting this track and feeling foolish by the description I had to give-
So, the plot thickened as I found an old cd that I had recorded a bunch of tracks that I liked from Bobbito shows on. It had the remix to said track, but not the og-Vergill Tibbz wrote:Here's a joint that you probably remember because it was one that Bobbito played every week for over a month in maybe 96 or 97. It even had a remix that they played. Get ready for one of the dumbest descriptions for a song you've ever heard. I know cats think I'm an idiot for requesting this in the past, but if you heard it you'll know what I'm talking about-
Black Prophet - Extra Mile- Not sure if that's the artist name or track title, but dude calls himself the Black Prophet in it and before the hook, he says "cause I go the extra mile." The hook itself is sampled from an old song that goes,"Yah,yah,yaaah",..."yah,yah,ya-yaah". Random lyrics I remember from it-"my son, keep ya head up like a giraffe", "I be catching the holy ghost over and over","I'm broader than Broadway in broad daylight","cause I go the extra mile".
So, a new poster named mathematik, just sent me a PM with almost the entire og cut.Verge wrote: Well, I found the remix, so now maybe someone will be able to point me towards the original mix. Don't get me wrong, this remix is ill.
I'm gonna post in the Song IDs and Weekly Request-

So now, 2 things left-
01) Get the entire cut.
02) Find out who it is.
mathematik mentioned that people have commented that it mey be Roc Marcy. At first I thought no way. But now I'm not so sure. It could be.
Anybody?
