Ok you already know the sample comes from Soul II Soul's "Back to Life"...I actually admired that era....(sighs)... However the song's acapella was on the motion picture Belly (well actually the beat drops after the bridge and starts all over)... we remember the movie BEllY changed the way we looked at Movies as a hip hop generation....... Let's Revisit Belly........
SO.... With that being watched....
Why if this movie was such a major movie in our generation... Why was it heavily criticized as well as condemned by mainstream? And far worst the box-office numbers were horrible...
However Hype Williams is a genious he did an changed the video game with videos such as The Notorious B.I.G. ("Warning ") & ("One More Chance"), Craig Mack ("Flava In Ya Ear"), LL Cool J ("Doin' It"), Nas ("If I Ruled The World (Imagine That)", "Street Dreams", "Hate Me Now"), Missy Elliott ("The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)", "She's a Bitch"), Busta Rhymes ("Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See"), TLC ("No Scrubs"), Kelis ("Caught Out There"), and Jay-Z ("Big Pimpin'"), Aaliyah ("Rock The Boat") and is currently working with such of the likes as Kian and Christina Aguilera, Betonce's "Videophone"
Hype is a Genious...... Now New Music Videos are going back to Belly... For example the New Drake video.... Look Below
But I'm starting to believe that certain works of art aren't made for other people to understand... It's for our culture. For us to enjoy, remember and honor.. I still keep DMX in my prayers...
One more thing.... The Original Soul 2 Soul Track
