Roger Troutmans (evt Zapps) More Bounce To The Ounce er en fantastisk fet låt, som har resultert i utallige feiende flotte raphits. Men hvem gjorde det best? Her er noen forslag:
Above The Law feat Kokane - Return Of The Real Shit
EPMD - You Gots To Chill
Heavy D And The Boyz - More Bounce
Masta Ace - Slaughtahouse
Snoop Doggy Dogg - Snoop Bounce
Notorious BIG - Going Back To Cali
Brownside feat Eazy-E - Drama On The Eastside
WC & The Maad Circle - You Don't Work U Don't Eat
Ice Cube forteller følgende om sitt første møte med låta og pop-locking til SF Weekly:
The year was 1980, and the 11-year-old Ice Cube, then known to his classmates as O'Shea Jackson, had never seen pop-lockers before, and he'd definitely never heard music like the nearly 10-minute-long funk classic from Roger Troutman and his brothers. "The guys came in wearing all black with white gloves," Cube recalls. "He put on that song 'More Bounce,' and they started pop-locking. And I think from that visual, from seeing that, it was my first introduction into hip hop. Period. I didn't know nothing about nothing. I hadn't heard 'Rapper's Delight' yet. It was the first thing that was really fly to me. They started dancing, and since 'More Bounce' goes on forever, they just got down. I just think that was a rush of adrenaline for me, like a chemical reaction in my brain."

De feteste er Eazy og Above the law versjonene. Helt klart!
fett bilde hahahah
The Message er jo også en slags vri på More Bounce-beaten ....
Ellers er jo "You GOts To Chill" en klassiker av DIMENSJONER, og jeg vil tro at den var de fleste hip hop-heads første møte med beaten her hjemme i hvert fall.
jojo, men bare fordi new york elskende norge hørte den der først betyr ikke at den er fetest.
Som Pimp C sier: "We know hip-hop and rap and all that shit started in the
muthafuckin East. Then it went to the West coast and they did it a little bit better".
Above The Law hele dagen.
