First time hearing the Beck track and it's pretty great. Never been a fan of Nickatina, and this ode to coke over acoustic guitars is no exception.

Thanks for posting the video - I'd never seen it before and it made me miss my home away from home.

It's actually a cautionary song about the perils of cocaine.

Well yes, the verses obviously are, but I think there’s a disconnect in tone between San Quinn and Andre Nickatina. I also watched a live version performed by just Nickatina (backed by The Roots) and his ad-libs / dialogue were more ode than cautionary tale.

I certainly like Girl- it's nice 'n' breezy. My fav' noughties Beck track you say? Probably Gamma Ray.

The Yaya track is intriguing but I'm not addicted after a first listen.

Close call but I'll opt for Beck.

A draw. I'm here with a friend that prefers the Nickatina track, while I slightly run for Beck unconvincigly, we're not thrilled by the matchup actually.
