Special Ed: I Got It Made Vinyl 7″

Dun-dunna…..dunna. Is there a better known, one-bar loop in hip-hop history? We think not. With that simple, five note bassline,Special Ed kicks off his most classic cut, I Got It Made. Sure, this trackseems antiquated in a day when rappers rhyme about rocking whips on their wrists, but Special Ed laced this song with one notable quotable after another and took cash bragging to a whole ‘nother level. Choose: Im outspoken/my language is broken into slang/but its just a dialect that I select when I hang or I got a treaty with Tahiti cause I own a per-cent. Wicked nice. The Business Like Version takes the flip, but it’s really all about that OG. Comes in mini Profile sleeve.
