Naughty by Nature hip hop icon Treach added a like to a recent Instagram post promoting the single.
“When I signed my first deal back in 2011, i was a kid, In 90 days I went from rapping on my block to BET – into the studio with Freeway, Omillio Sparks, Q Parker of 112, Wu-Tang and DJ Kay Slay. I was busy with touring and radio all over the country. I wasn’t in Jersey a lot because of my schedule, I didn’t know my record was influencing the Jersey Club sound the way it did. I was saying to my label the remix is popping in Jersey and Lil Man is really behind this record. I don’t think they understood at the time but I knew Jersey Club wasn’t going nowhere”.
