Thursday Throwbacks: MC Lyte - "Poor Georgie" (PLUS JEEZY'S "SHAKE LIFE)
I decided to go with MC Lyte's Poor Georgie" for this week's throwback because of a new Young Jeezy track called "Shake Life" that I've been hearing on Sirius a lot lately. It's definitely a hot joint and finally something decent from his new Thug Motivation 103 album which keeps getting delayed because all of the songs he was releasing from it were garbage.
Anyway, I recognized the beat immediately since it's just a slightly harder version of MC Lyte's "Poor Georgie". The original sample is actually from Toto's "Georgy Porgy" which is a funky old school joint. Here it is for your listening pleasure.
