Love that Large Pro gave his flowers to DJ Mark the 45 King as one of the originators of the remix. Such an underrated producer 45 King was. Rest in paradise DJ Mark the 45 King 6:28

Extra P is the most New Yorkingest Hip Hop dude ever. He ends string points by saying "Word." ✊

[@doncatalog]

Word. Everybody else seems like they may have lost their NY, but not Xtra P!

[@KD_SWAGGER]

Large Professor is a legend. Nice with the beats and bars. Flushing's own! Much respect from Yonkers!

That “Ressurection Remix” is probably my favorite remix of all time.

[@joncan1942]

Is this the remix, when Common changes his lyrics? The video version?

[@ultramag.7]

I agree with him on that Akinyele album. AK did his thing with the rhymes. LARGE did his thing with the beats and ROB SWIFT did his thing with the cuts🔥
