Well Chris was playing this record pretty loud, also saying how he would make sure Slick Rick clearance gets done. Meanwhile two other A&R's at Def Jam ducked in, bopping heads. Long story short and weeks later Montell Jordan has a record with the same sample, ironic?! This record never came out, however it still rock.
