| Good ole Puff Daddy ya gotta love him for trying. When he dropped his new album 'Forever' he left a lot of folks here in the Bay Area a bit disturbed when he lifted the beat from the Luniz classic jam 'I Got Five On It' and used it in the song 'Satisfy You' which features R Kelley. Of course everyone and their momma knows that to be a Bay Aerea anthem of sorts. 'I Got Five On It' was borrowed from Jay King and his group Club Nouveau. When Puffy came to the Bay Area in August he was asking around on how he could track down Yukmouth and Numbskull of the Luniz. He apparently wanted to make a nice gesture and do some sort of remix. Well he finally hooked things up. Yuk and Num are all over the new version to the point you forget it's a Puffy song. The problem is Puffy's remarks in the beginning of the song. He gives a shout out to the whole Bay Area and names off a couple of cities including 'San Diego'. Local deejays have been having a field day clowning Puffy about this.. because San Diego is more then 500 miles away from the Bay Area in Southern Cali. It would be like somebody giving a shout out to New York City and then naming the Bronx, Manhatten and Buffalo. It would be enough to scratch your head. Puffy's brilliance has certainly left the Bay Area puzzled, but he gets props fro trying to reach out.. Next time look at your map Puffy. |
