I remember feeling this when it dropped. The Fugees were fresh off of dropping The Score the previous year ('96), so everything they touched was golden. All three of them (yes, including Pras) do their thing, but Lauryn's verse is classic. Even Wyclef's verse was dope. Couple that with Bounty Killer, who has always been dope in my mind despite what others say about his lyrical content, and you have a can't miss hit. Even the video was on point. My only beef is the fact that the track is edited, but it does say radio edit on the back. If there's an unedited version, I don't know about it, but I'd love to have it.

The second track, Living Dangerously featuring Barrington Levy, was a track that I didn't really appreciate when this single first dropped. I like it now even thought I couldn't stand it back in '97. It has more of a dancehall flavor to it than the first track.
