Mobb Deep - If These Walls Could Talk (2002)
It's hot and sunny outside but let's ignore that completely and go for some moody Queensbridge raps with this unreleased Mobb Deep joint that was on the flipside of the NORE track I posted recently.
Depending on which bootleg or mixtape you have this is also known as 'Snitch' or 'Snitched On' and samples Beethoven's Fur Elise; obviously I didn't know that until it appeared on the Google search but it's one of those classical pieces everyone recognises. Grimey.
Other things worthy of your attention:

Its been pointed out to me that I Can by Nas also samples Fur Elise which may explain why the Mobb track didn't officially see the light of day being that they're from around the same time and all
ReplyDeleteI remember this track being around on some of the mixtapes back before Infamy came out in 2001.
ReplyDeleteBeethoven breaks big in QB in 2001/2002?
ReplyDeleteAnother fine find.
