Playa G – Drink A Yak (original version)
(From Drink A Yak 12″ single; 1996)



MP45 has been uploading 12″ single cuts which have never been on YouTube before and this song by Memphis rapper Playa G is the pick of the bunch for me. Full disclosure, ya host had never heard this Original mix or the album version before but I prefer this one, meself – the vocals get lost a bit in the album mix with all the added synthesiser warbling. Gucci Mane always says Project Pat was one of his favourite rappers, gonna hazard a guess he was a big Playa G fan too?

PS: presented without comment, this Discogs review of Playa G’s debut album.
