Download: Mr. Chop – “T.R.O.Y” (Pete Rock cover) [mp3]

10/21/09 | By Andrew Martin | 2 Comments

Apparently this joint is a take on the Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth classic “T.R.O.Y.”. While I’m only hearing certain elements of the original in this, it’s safe to say this is a ridiculously dope instrumental either way. Mr. Chop, who Stones Throw says is DOOM’s go-to-guy for instrumentals, clearly knows what he’s doing here. In fact, Mr. Chop co-wrote and co-produced several tracks off Born Like This. And now, the beatsmith is tackling Pete Rock classics on For Pete’s Sake. And good lord, if this track is any indication, I’m definitely copping the entire project. Hit the jump for the tracklisting and buy it here.
