The last single from the debut combined English and Spanish lyrics, a trait the group carried through their career. It appeared in Lethal Weapon 3 in 1992 and peaked at five on the Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart. Its video shows the group performing at a house. Rolling Stone's review noted the live bass, percussion and guitar licks and Sen Dog, Cuban-born, swinging between his native tongue and street jargon. A Prince Paul Mix of the song exists, and a vocal from the start of that mix is sampled in Insane in the Brain.
