It's All the Way Live (Now)

"It's All the Way Live (Now)" is a song by American rapper Coolio. It was released in May 1996, by Hollywood Records, as the lead single to the Eddie soundtrack. The song became Coolio's fifth top-40 single and his fourth to achieve at least a gold certification from the RIAA for sales of 500,000 copies. The song sampled "It's All the Way Live" by funk band Lakeside, his second single to both sample and take the name from a Lakeside song after his 1994 hit, "Fantastic Voyage".

Despite being one of Coolio's biggest hits, the song did not appear on his 2001 Tommy Boy Records compilation. This was due to the fact Hollywood Records, who released the Eddie soundtrack, owned the rights to the song.

Critical reception

British magazine Music Week gave the song a score of three out of five, describing it as "a smoothly-produced cover" from the new basketball comedy Eddie. They also noted that the original recorders, Lakeside, perform on the track too.
