On "Where Are They Now", one of the best tracks on HHID in my opinion (after you get used to the annoying James Brown (RIP) sample, the track's fine), Nas payed tribute to a lot of Old School artists that aren't rapping no more (well, some of them are), and what was the result? Well, less than two months later, three huge remixes came out of nowhere featuring these Old School elite.
Where Are They Now (80s Remix) (Feat. MC Shan, Raheem (Furious Five), Doctor Ice (UTFO), Kangol (UTFO), Kool Moe Dee, Sha Rock (Funky Four +1), Tito (Fearless Four), Grandmaster Caz (Cold Crush Brothers), Lique (Isis of X Clan), Dana Dane, Pebblee Poo & Just Ice )
Where Are They Now (90s Remix) (Feat. Redhead Kingpin, The Original Spinderella, Rob Base, Father MC, Monie Love, Mike D (of the Jungle Brothers), EST (of 3XDope), Positive K, Das EFX, Lords of the Underground, Dres (of Black Sheep)
Where Are They Now (West Coast Remix) (Feat. Breeze, Kam, King Tee, Candman, Threat, Ice T, Sir Mix-A-Lot, Conscious Daughters with scratches from DJ Bobcat)

Original Version & 3 Remixes
I personally think that the West coast one is the best, just love the beat, and the other two remixes are ridiculous too, but the beats are constantly changing.
But.... Where Is Tim Dogg?
What's your favorite, tell me what you think of the remixes.
