da remix BROKE da record up north, juvenile CLEARLY says it in da artcile. they did 2 presses of his album, one before da remix, and da one after da remixThat Jay remix barely caught play in NY, recall only hearing it twice on the radio (when flex premiered it and when Clue played it during the monday night mixtape). Ninjahood is wild delusional.Damn j u a rapper and never liked any New York rap ? Sheesh
Of course I have listened to and liked New York rap. I'm talking about the stuff that is coming out of New York currently.
And I can't speak for New York, but Juvenile was hot in the south outside of NO waaaaaaaaaaaayyy before that remix. As soon as "HA" hit MTV and Rap City, it took off and everybody was on it. If I recall, that Jay Z remix wasn't even on the earlier pressings of that album.
That remix caught zero play down here. I always thought it was hot, but it had nothing to do with Juvenile's success because the original was already fire. Like I said before, I can't speak for the New York demographic but outside of NY, that song blew up off the video, and Jay Z was not in it.
where it says in big bold letters "jay-z appears courtesy of roca-fella records" cuz he was da ONLY artist that needed clearance to be on that album.
