I had this album when it originally came out, and I could have SWORN that the words were NOT "Tear the Roof Off the SUCKER"; my memory is that they were just a little different - "Tear the Roof Off the MF". Does anyone else remember this? Jrpearman 14:00, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

In versions I've listened to, that part I didn't notice. 67.188.172.165 02:37, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] String Synth being used

Does anyone have information about the string synth being used on this track (definitely one of the funkiest in history, IMHO)? It sounds like a Solina String Ensemble, however I haven't been able to get this confirmed... Mley 22:18, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
