“Mellow My Man” (1995)
"It was a glimpse into how we get down and our world. There were no live hip-hop bands before us. It was very much decided ahead of time that we were going to have the same instrumentation on every song. “Mellow My Man,” again, the lyrical dexterity and how well Malik and I worked together. If “Proceed” was a representation of where my head was at, then “Mellow My Man” was more representative of where Malik’s head was; it was just outlandish and almost zany.It was just weird shit where you feel like he made a mistake [laughs]. What is that? What did that mean? Why did you say that like that? He would explain it and it’s like, “Oh, shit!” “Mellow My Man” is indicative of his ability to pivot from one idea to another within the same breath. It’s also just an homage to classic hip-hop. We come from the era of, “One, two, one, two, in the place to be, to my man, to my mellow my man.” All the shit that you say that gives you another brief moment to think of the next thing that you’re going to say that actually means something."
