The FiRM`s "PHoNe TaP" [PRoMo CD SiNGLe]...




Dust`n off some more CD Singles today & the first one that I grabbed was The Firm`s "Phone Tap" joint. It was released back in 1998 thru Columbia Records & it has a total of 4 tracks on it. You get the Nas & AZ collabo` "Phone Tap" with Dr. Dre featured on the hook, you also get it`s Instrumental. Following that is the Nature solo joint "Five Minutes To Flush" & it`s Instrumental. Both tracks were produced by Dr. Dre & Chris "The Glove" Taylor...



I`m still DiGG`n these joints even 15 years later.....LoL, DaMn it`s been awhile since I last heard `em. "Phone Tap" for those that still haven`t heard it yet is a DoPe lil` concept joint that has Nas & AZ spittin` their verses as if they`re speakin` on a celly to each other while Dre`s on the hook actin` as the feds tappin` his phone. "Five Minutes To Flush" is another great joint that has Nature breakin` down what happens when it`s 4 in the mornin` & the Feds are at your door & they`re comin` for you. The way Dre & Chris flipped Whodini`s "Five Minutes Of Funk" for the beat was a nice added touch to the track as well. So go `head & check `em out for ya`self...

Something funny I noticed when I was searching for the "Phone Tap" music video on youtube is that there`s 2 different edits of the video....LoL, below is the first one I found, you will notice that at the beginning when the detective is shown the body in the shower he doesn`t say "Jesus", but in the version at the top of this post he does.....LoL, guess some folks were offended or something. Nothing of importance, just a funny observation....LoL
