► The history of recording... "Purse Snatchers Remix": Method Man could have been on this song! • DJ LS One (DJ for the platinum-selling group ONYX, currently signed to Def Jam Recordings): Onyx did songs with Smoothe and Trigger, and with Method Man. I've known Smooth and Trigger since before they came into the rhyming life, and we've always been cool. Trigger and Khrist were signed to Def Jam, and Onyx is signed to Def Jam. So we decided, "OK, y'all do the song with us and in return we'll do a remix with y'all, so it’s like an even swap". We didn't call Violator Management and ask for Trigger. I went straight to them myself. I was like, "Yo, Trig, what's the deal? We're getting ready to do this song, we want y'all to get on the remix". He was like, "What's the song?" I told him, "Purse Snatchers". They listened to the original "Purse Snatchers" on the album and they was like, "Yeah, we was talking about that song, because that's the same type of style that me and Smoothe use". "So do y'all want to get on it?" "Of course". It took like two days. We were in the studio, we did it. Same thing with Meth. All he wanted was for us to do something with him on his new album. So that's how it went down. The second day we were doing "Purse Snatchers", Meth was in the studio, and he was mad that he wasn't on it. So him and [Onyx MC] Sticky Fingaz talked, they worked it out where we'll do a song on Meth's new album. The managers were talking behind the scenes and we were like, "We don't need all of that happening, because we took care of all of this."
