From the counter

"Hate It or Love It" runs on a song The Trammps cut back in 1975, written by Ron Baker, Allan Felder and Norman Harris. Play theirs first, then go back to 50 and hear the old bones under the new house.

That G-Unit remix carries the names of Ron Baker, Allan Felder and Norman Harris, the writers of a song The Trammps cut back in 1975. Put the two side by side and you can hear the crew standing on somebody else's foundation.
