This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

This song seems to be Dilla’s acknowledgment of the legacy he will leave behind: the prominent and poignant sample of Dionne Warwick’s 1973 song “You’re Gonna Need Me” is telling.

That same sample was notably used two years prior by legendary producer Just Blaze throughout Usher’s song “Throwback” from his best-selling 2004 album Confessions, which features a guest verse from Jadakiss, who is sampled in this song’s intro.
