Somebody helped me figure out what fucking song this is!

he references g-mob on the track, this must've been an outkast thing on mtv where dungeon fam was performing and breed did a guest track.... is khujo on this song? i can't even tell
oh fuck so happy to hear this again it's like i finally scratched an itch that i've had for YEARS

And maybe Stone was hanging with them on the show? So weird that i only remember hearing this ONCE and it's stuck with me for over a decade.

zip11 if you are a sock you are my favorite sock of all time

The guy dying while you were seeking him/his song is kinda reminiscent of second/third-gen. Holocaust memoirs. Makes the discovery more poignant, maybe.

Goddamn. That is funky. I am happy for Forks now. ILM comes through again.

do you think you were imagining/misremembering the part about Stone Gossard? I don't see any evidence that there was a video for this song or a Pearl Jam connection. what an awesome lost & found story though.

it could be in my head! I don't think there WAS a video; my hazy memory was watching this in high school (which is wrong, since this came out in 99 and i woulda been a college dropout by then so that's even weirder) on some sort of a live show with stone gossard sitting in with a rap group for a hotlanta style performance on MTV

Breed is great, had some play in the bay area even tho he was a Michigan dude.

Funkafied is the album I would suggest, the whole thing fits the vibe of that track you discovered.

A+ title edit!

this whole thing makes me happy

i pulled the mp3 of the youtube before i left the house and have listened to this 30+ times since
i was saying hello and smiling at total strangers on the streets of new york this morning i was so goddamn happy
it is playing now
it will not stop playing

ILX can change a life

haha, is this the biggest ILM success of all time, or the biggest failure? 7 years is just amazing!

wasn't there another long-running thread where someone was trying to ID a movie about a dude with a magician's hat or something? did that one ever get solved?

wow, really feelin this love

Holy crap. Well done!

Great new screen name, Forks! I remember selling a few Breed records in my retailing days, but I don't think I ever heard him. "It's All Good" is indeed all good.

yeah
be like rocky and run up the stairs you know
put my hands up in the sky
b... big winner shit winner shit

i was just weighing out the pros and cons of not posting to ilx anymore and the tipping point in favor of staying was this thread.
so thanks again.

The first time I ever heard Outkast was when Stone Gossard played "Ain't No Thang" on the radio when I was 14.

"Alright. That was - that was Weapon of Choice and they're out on Loosegroove records, which is a label I'm starting here in Seattle. And right now we're gonna listen to something else - we're gonna be playing some more Loosegroove stuff later in the night - but right now I really feel like we need to go to Atlanta and play some Outkast. This one goes out to Dirk and Lonnie. See ya."

that radio show is def downloadable.. perhaps it holds the answer

oh wait i missed the part where someone found it

I know I might be late but I too have been trying to figure out who sings that song for almost the past 10 years. I first heard the song maybe my sophomore or junior year in high school. It went like "Anything you wanna do, it's all good ridin drop top fleetwood thru the hood, everything is everything....(something,something) nothing but a chicken wing,shorty do your thang". To me it sounded like Jazzy Phae was on the track singing that hook. So I too would like to know & I'm a big music head...been that way since birth. But um yeah the hook keeps playing very clear in my head & it does sound like a down south song similar to Tela's "Bring em out" song.

Ntash916, it was identified a little bit upthread as "It's All Good" by MC Breed. Happy listening!

Thanks!!!! This made my day guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sock or no; i'm appreciative of any excuse to replay this

this is the best thread on ilm. it's like watching the birth of your first child.

Still need to track down the Stone Gossard performance though.

If anybody ever interviews him, ask him if i'm insane?

a reminder that even when all looks lost, hope springs eternal

big winner shit

was thinking about this thread listening to the Reply All "Case of the Missing Hit" podcast.

heh, that's why i bumped this

holy fuck there is a video. prominent jazzy pha!

this is not what i remember it from. still positive there was a live performance that i saw. video captures the energy nicely tho'.
