Funny to see this vid. Mic Geronimo was supposed to be the next Nas. Irv Gotti was a nobody at the time. That part of queens is an all asian community now too.

It was released the year I moved out of NYC for good, kind of sentimental about that. Like watching the old street scenes of NYC in the videos, like looking at a time capsule.
Never heard about the Nas comparisons. I would have been skeptical at the time, Nas was a prodigy. Still really like the song, great music to kick back and relax to.
Mic dropped Irv because he thought he could make it without him. I don't know what his new management did with him, but he appeared on MTV True Sex and his girl was playing him and he lost a lot street cred. He didn't seem as real as his video persona and he drifted away. My friend's sister was a groupie with him, so he also was cheating on his girl.
He could have been making songs with Murder Inc until at least the 2000s if he didn't play into his own hype. Also I think the big comparison to Nas was they were from Queens. I don't think anyone believed lyrically he could hang.

Opportunity there are a lot of players that look good when given chance.

As in Flushing?
Yes, I went to Queens College for 5 years so I spent a great deal of time in that area.
