Black Sheep's "The Choice Is Yours" Meets Soho/Hot Music With A Remix by Ahmed Sirour


Pure early-90's flavor here, courtesy of pianist/producer Ahmed Sirour. Get up to the sounds of Mista Lawnge and Dres on this new Soho/Hot Music club version of "The Choice Is Yours". This would've made a nice b-side to the single released back in the day, where outstanding remixes were released in abundance. Reminds me of the remix for EPMD's "I'm Mad" which also sampled Soho/Hot Music.

"Flavor Of The Month"/ "Butt In The Meantime" is available as a 12" Test Pressing, plus more collectors items here at eBay.
