It ain't got nothin to do with the streets, because I only heard Hold Me Back once (on someone's boombox lol). And 9 Piece/Stay Schemin/BMF/So Sophisticated got mad burn when it came out.

I just don't think it's a good song, I could care less about the mainstream.

Nevertheless I'm interested in what the video is gonna look like. MMG usually got crisp visuals.

It might not be a Hit single to people like you and I who eat sleep & breathe HipHop but the streets love that simplistic,

hook-heavy, bass-bangin' ish and the inspirational/motivational hook resonates with the have-nots.

I think YouTube took the video to Amsterdam or either it's HD and I can't play it on my phone but there's a link to Vimeo in case you missed it.

LOL, I heard people playing Biggie songs more times than I heard Hold Me Back this summer when I was home in NYC. But I did hear people playing other cuts from GFID.

And yeah, Amsterdam is one of my fav songs from GFID. I joked about Ross tryna be Biggie by recruiting the chick that played Faith Evans in Notorious, LOL.

Dayum not only does Ross need a bunch of features to carry him but what songs did he write on his own this album ? Look at the writer(s) credits. Nigga got more writers than Lil Kim SMH this can't be life.....

#scust

its called samples and producers get writers credit

It's sad you even gotta explain that shit but he's a 50-Cent fan so it's understandable.

Is it just me or did like 50 different aliases pop up and join this thread discussion?
