AboutMatt Maguire Expertise I am new to allexperts, but have plenty of knowledge and experience in the realm of Sublime. Guarantee: you will receive an answer within 2 days of posting the question -- I have no feedback so far and would like to build some.
I can answer most questions about the band, the significance of the lyrics, the show dates,
the unreleased albums and tracks, misinformation, and, above all, I am an expert on their
influences and related music.
Experience I have been a huge fan for 14 years, I ran a server which distributed Sublime's live and unreleased music 24/7 for 4 years, I have answered questions about the band daily for years on their old website, and I know some of the largest collectors in the world. I created the 5 CD bootleg "Rewind Selector" which documents the influences of Sublime and was the topic of a Spin Magazine interview.
Education/Credentials I did not study music in college, but I majored in English, so I can write a clear response. I worked as a research assistant in the past, so I have skills in research if I need to figure out an answer.
Past/Present Clients Sublime fans aren't my clients, but I have distributed swag and rare tracks to all those who want them for years at no cost.

Question hey, that part in "smoke two joints" "smoke a big spliff of some good sensimilla" is extended on the 3rd track of the "bums lie" album, but i know that it isnt from just ice's "na touch de just" track. du jnow where it is from?
Answer Pedro --
You're talking about the Psycho Semantic Police track 3 in which the DJ says "Just so you'll think I'm cool..." and then proceeds to play Brad's vinyl of Just Ice (not Eazy E). The first line is "Smoke a big spliff...". That is, in fact, "Na Touch Da Just", it's just not the beginning. That track is somewhat freestyle and freeform and that verse is exactly from the track at 4:45 into the 7:30 minute track. Check again and you'll hear it.
If I misunderstood the question, feel free to rephrase it and ask again as a followup.
