Sale History
Artist & Song Information
"No Role Modelz," from J. Cole's 2014 album 2014 Forest Hills Drive, features a smooth instrumental and a sample from Project Pat's "Don't Save Her." Despite not being an official single, it became one of J. Cole's most popular tracks, with over 2.3 billion Spotify streams and Platinum certification, remaining a fan favorite in his catalog.
"Captain Save Em Thoe," featured on E-40's 1993 The Mail Man EP, played a key role in elevating his status in rap, blending his unique slang with the G-funk sound of West Coast hip-hop. The song gained further cultural relevance when included in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, introducing E-40's early work to a new generation and solidifying its influence in hip-hop.
"City 2 City" by B-Legit, from his 1996 album The Hemp Museum, is a West Coast hip-hop track with deep basslines, smooth synths, and B-Legit's laid-back flow. A fan favorite, it represents the hustler lifestyle and helped shape Bay Area rap in the 1990s.
"Ain't Hard 2 Find," from 2Pac's 1996 album All Eyez on Me, features E-40, B-Legit, C-Bo, and D-Shot. Though not a single, it stands out for its portrayal of street life and West Coast unity, solidifying 2Pac's connection to the Bay Area and contributing to the album's legacy in hip-hop.
