Grove St Party, No Hands, Hard in Da Paint are what you wanna be playing at a party. Tekashi might be a close second, but his screaming is that of a menacing troll, whereas DMX and Waka are intimidating and booming. If you weren't alive when DMX hit mainstream, this was the closest thing to experiencing it. I fondly remember my my friends coming home after the club, telling me about how there was this one song that made the club go crazy, and it was just somebody shouting "waka waka waka waka flocka" over and over again. The horns were so much more aggressive and blaring, the bass was tuned to hit you as hard as possible, and it complimented Waka perfectly. I just thought it was the gradual progression of probably Shawty Redd linking up with Rick Ross and dialing his drums up to 11 to compete with whoever were the new hot producers of that year.īut when I heard Hard In The Paint, it all clicked. Didn't help that my friend's car didn't have a proper sound system. I thought it was a good song but didn't make me wanna look up who the producer was, or see Rick Ross in a new light. I first heard a (then-unknown-to-me) Lex Luger production on Rick Ross' BMF in the summer of 2010.
