One of my favourite things about Gangster is that you can use it to play 6 degrees of separation with Agallah and Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham: Gangster appeared on Kay Slay's Diplomats Volume 4 mixtape next to M.O.P's That Simple AKA the track which would later become the Posh Spice & Mash Out Posse collaboration after Dame Dash tried to sign her to Roc-A-Fella. Dame, you a fool for that one!
Dame, you also a fool for the Posh Spice & Jim Jones song!

i can't think of another great rap song that was ruined in as many different directions than "it's that simple" between the posh version and the inferior metal version
did a nodj/cdq of the original ever leak?
Not that I know of.
Forgot about the Mosh Out Posse version 😄
The Spice Girl version of It's That Simple might be one of the worst songs I've ever heard. Another example in the ever growing canon of why we keep UK and US rap separate?
Posh Spice made Lumidee sound like Mariah Carey.
I can't even listen to the o.g That Simple without hearing Posh Spice's Godawful voice in my head. Dame shoulda got Sporty Spice Mel on there instead.
