10. “Auntie Maria's Crib (Remix)” f/ Action Bronson And The Kid Daytona

Nitty Scott, MC: "“Auntie Maria’s Crib,” the original, was like a Boombox family hit. It was a hit amongst my fans. It’s the joint that when it comes on the shows, everybody’s like, ‘Oh, shit shes gonna do “Auntie Maria’s Crib.”’ I think it was already worthy of a remix just because it already made so much noise. So for that the theme was gathering dope New York talent and having all the boroughs represented. You got me from Brooklyn, Acton is just the king of Queens, and you got the boogie down as well with Daytona.

"It’s just a smooth fly record. I knew they would be perfect for it. I knew they would kill it. I knew they had no problem talking about weed. [Laughs.] We wanted to get people who really embodied the lifestyle. Ok, “Auntie Maria’s Crib.” Everybody knows it’s a metaphor for getting lifted. It had to be dudes who were about that life. Essentially. Everybody knows Action and Tona are definitely about that life. Their verses are just colorful. Action just brings so much imagery as well as Tona. I just think it’s a really dope, laid-back, NYC joint.

"You don’t see much of that as I would like to. I feel like the issue with the New York hip-hop scene is that New York artists don’t seem to care about the New York hip-hop scene as much as they care about themselves and their careers. It’s not to criticize anyone, it’s more of an observation. We just seem more preoccupied with ourselves as opposed to the unity of the situation, which I think really causes us to not have that much of a presence on the collective New York City scene. I think it was a step in that direction as well. ‘Yo, we got dope talent here.’ Why not unite and create?"
