Tupac Shakur featured Eric Williams Of Blackstreet on the "Do for Love " Track

"Do for Love" (Originally titled 'Sucka 4 Luv' in its unreleased form) was the second posthumously released single by Tupac Shakur from his first posthumous album R U Still Down? (Remember Me). [b]The vocal sample is from "What You Won't Do for Love" by Bobby Caldwell [/b]but the song actually rechopped J Dilla's production on a remix of the The Pharcyde's track Y?, and his name was omitted from the production credits. It charted at #21 on the Billboard Hot 100. The video contained Tupac as a clay figure and a cartoon figure; this song also uses a quote from Sir Walter Scott ("O, what a tangled web we weave"wink.

I now agree that indeed Wikipedia does gets its facts wrong sometimes.

That was the vocal of Eric Williams of Blackstreet used for the hook,undeniable and unmistakable. Agreed that Bobby Caldwell was the original performer of the song What You Won't Do for Love.

By the way 1998 was a good year for hiphop music grin
