Longshot, but can anyone name this song? (rap)
I've been trying to find out this song for years.. I've even tried calling random radio stations, emailing the contacts at radio stations, asking people, online, whatever.. hopefully someone here might know it.. I heard it in Hawaii, and it was ALWAYS on the radio, like I heard it numerous times, but I never got the name. I also remember hearing Whitney Houston's Heartbreak Hotel a lot around that time so I know it must be around 1999 or 2000. I've looked up archived top ten lists, etc, but I can't find the song..
Please, if you have any idea, please help, it's really bugging me. Usually I figure it out, but it's been many years now..
The beginning of the song samples the whistling from, "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ct6p0sP_KSk
And I think it samples the rawhide song, where they sing, Rolling Rolling Rolling http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShOiHPrwtHk but it's done rap, not the actual rawhide sample, they just sort of sing it the same tune in the beginning. The song is not like a dancey type of rap like jay-z. Kind of like Tupac style or Wu-Tang clan.
Thanks for reading.

Hey Luckyone, that's as close as to anyone I've asked. Most people had no idea what song I was talking about.
Do you have any clue as to who the artist might be?? I've checked top ten and top 50 lists as well as billboard charts as to the time around when Heartbreak hotel was popular, but no answer.. If you have any other tips on how I might find it too..
Re: Longshot, but can anyone name this song? (rap)
Go on Itunes and look it up that way through the rap section. Is it rap cause if it is its was by one of the artists from wu-tang or a one hit wonder rapper. I'm thinking maybe redman, method man. I know the song but haven't heard it in soo long but I can hear the chorus in my head. I'm a music fanatic so when it pops up ill make sure to post it on here.

Is it So Many Tears by Tupac?
I know it samples a modification of the whistling in the chorus
Re: Longshot, but can anyone name this song? (rap)
It's not Ghetto Cowboy by Bone Thugs is it?
Re: Longshot, but can anyone name this song? (rap)
So far all I can come up with is Sadat X- Hang Em High.

Nope. I just remember the whistling in a rap song. I'm sure I heard it on the radio.

If you know any of the lyrics,you can do a lyrics search..
I do that when I cant figure out the name of a song..
Re: Longshot, but can anyone name this song? (rap)
Thanks for the responses!
it's not any of the songs, but thanks for posting. I had not heard of Sadat X, and I like the song that was posted. I'll have to check out their albums.
The only lyrics I know are rollin rollin rollin, but I can't find anything with that..
If anyone has any possible suggestions, please let me know. I'm glad to know someone has heard of the song I'm thinking of though, and it's not just made up in my head..
