  • Starin' Through My Rearview (BigR OG Mix)

    Did my best to recreate the original version so I could play the OG on a regular basis without being annoyed at the degraded quality of any rip we have. So here it is, not perfect by any means, but the best attempt I think I can manage. I'm sure better mixers will come along with better attempts.

    Awesome Big R.. This is one of those amazing tracks that aslong as people keeps it close to the og it can't go wrong. I really love the beat breaks and variations that where lacking on the retail....
    I ain't choosing sides
    Hell nah,fuck everybody
    It's Westside when I ride watch 4 dead bodies
    Lyrics are colorful words and anesthetics
    Problems are getting worked out faster than calisthenics
    I'm bullet proof
    Blazed up on top of my man's roof
    Hands on a fully AK now what 'cha plan to do
    Moon motherfuckaz til they feel me
    It's West Coast nigga fuck New York
    Now did everybody hear me?

      pretty amazing mix. I was confused on how to drop the chorus instrumentation like you did because like I said. Half of 2Pacs hook seems like it should be apart of his verse since its twice as long. So its weird making it play the after he says "drug dealers". I also thought it sounded weird starting it after the first time he says "time fly" because it makes it seems like it randomly comes on halfway through the hook even though the beginning of the hook is apart of the verse.

      This has always made remixes sound odd too if you cut the hook. ill have to keep messing around with it lol

        one of my favorite tracks,

        thanks for mixing and sharing!!

        I tell ya, when the gang related soundtrack came out and had this on it, I bumped the shit out of it. For any young cats that didn't get to grow up through the 90's, It was so raw to hear this new 2pac material after he was gone. I'll never forget and wish I could re live those days once again..

                It's definitely nice to have the full layers .
