He hasn't charted at pop since the beginning of 1998 when "Feel So Good" hit #35 but he's back with his first single in awhile and it will be going to pop June 29.
I think this could be his biggest pop hit ever. It wouldn't take much anyway.

does this song sample the theme from Welcome Back Kotter?
This is going to peak at #15 on R&R, maybe #16 on AT40.

I haven't heard the song but judging by the lyrics (which I've read) and the fact that it samples the "Welcome Back Kotter" theme, it sounds pretty lame.

Besides the obvious sample of John Sebastian's "Welcome Back", does Mase's song sample anything else? The instrumental (string-sounding) in the chorus sounds really familiar, but I can't place it.

God forbid they don't sample anything  It's a great song though. I'm glad the lyrics don't promote drugs and drinking like 90% of rap today |

yeah, but he doesn't need to brag about NOT drinking and doing drugs.
