When I first heard “We Run Things (It’s Like Dat)” by Da Bush Babees, produced by Ali Shaheed Muhammad, the track blew my mind. I was 14 and going to J.H.S. 56 out in L.E.S. The song was amazing and at that age I was deep into reggae and hip-hop, and Da Bush Babees mixed both styles in their music. I was feeling this track so much that I copped the CD and would listen to the whole album (without skipping a track) every day. Listening to this joint today reminds me of lunch time back in J.H.S. reciting the lyrics with my homeboys in the park. “It’s Like Dis Y’all, It’s Like Dat Y’all We Represent for Hip Hop and Not the Rap Y’all……….” via YouTube.
