Cassio Ware keeps it intriguing as always. It's an oldskool jam with his idiosyncratic inclusion of a "we're gonna rock you" chant in the original mix. It's reminiscent of a basketball game or such, and guess what? It rocks. Blaze's reproduction, as expected, heaps on the soul but what's unexpected is how TOUGH this is. It pushes all the right buttons. The gem here however is the MAW mix. Kenny and Louie obviously decided this track must live up to it's name and added DA FUNK. They've stripped it back, made the top notes more techy, used some Nuyorican beats and given us the best track Romanthony never made. Perfection.
