Upon first listen, the Kool G Rap song 'For Da Brothaz' became one of my all time top hip hop tracks. The storytelling is incredible, the flow & cadence exemplifies Kool G Rap's unique & remarkable skill, & last but not least, the beat is sooo smooth yet has all the hip hop groove you need to move.

This beat has sat with me for years along side the original Art Farmer track 'Soulsides', that T-Ray sampled for Kool G Rap.

Being a big fan of instrumentals, & not being able to find one of 'For Da Brothaz', I decided to chop together the open breaks from the Kool G Rap track & use more references from the original sample.

Preparing for a NYE set was my catalyst for completing this edit & it was divine serendipity that revealed Kool G Rap shouting "Happy New Year", it had to be done!

This is my idea of perfect scene setting sounds.

I hope you Enjoy.
