Foesum was a group out of Long Beach who was closely associated with Snoop Dogg, the Dogg Pound, and especially Warren G. The group originally consisted of T-Dubb, MNMsta, Dj Glaze, Tender D (Waniac), Mello D (Trip Locc), Travvy Trav, and Domino. Early in the group's career, Domino left, resulting in the diss track towards him entitled "Let'Em Understand Perfection" with Snoop Dogg. Later Travvy Trav died and Tender D (Waniac) and Mellow D (Trip Locc) left the group to become the duo known as the Twinz on Warren G's G-Funk Records. This left the group to be MNMsta, T-Dubb, and Dj Glaze after 1994. This particular track is one of many songs that was originally going to be on the group's first album in 1993 (which they worked on from 1990-1993). It was never released. It was recorded on Big Wes's Lock Down Records in assocation with Solar Records. Their original tracks recorded for the album were recorded on low quality analog cassettes so therefore there are no high quality versions in existance. The group was also acciated with Eazy E and Ruthless Records and was neutral on the whole Death Row vs Ruthless beings they had ties on both sides. Many of Foesum's first songs were inspirations for later Death Row remakes by Snoop, Warren G, and the Dogg Pound. It's a shame their album was never released and it's a shame these songs aren't in good quality because much of it is classic material. Waniac and Dj Glaze are especially compelling throughout the album. A condition that would ware out later in their careers. This track was recorded in 1992. Track Listing: 1. "Intro" 2.
