Balans “Lyrical Commission”

Balans: It was a rhyme I wrote that I wanted to sound like a government letter or some corporate law manual type-shit. I remember saying to Jase, ‘Just use that piano loop.’ I wanted a simple beat and he tapped it out pretty quick on his keyboard. It’s a dope, sinister beat. I said I wanted a beat like Touch The Mic by 7L & Eso with Virtuoso. I always thought my vocals could’ve been pumped up more on it, I would’ve liked to have done it again. But Nuffsaid put it out on wax so I have to give credit – they got off their arses and did it. This was way before we’d thought about a name for the crew, and Trem came up with calling us Lyrical Commission. He was gonna write a track saying he was the janitor of the Lyrical Commission mopping up MCs and shit, which would have been good value.
