In 2001 Peedi Crakk signed to Jay Z and Dame Dash's Roc-A-Fella Records label. Two years later he released his biggest single titled "One for Peedi Crakk," featuring Beanie Sigel, Young Chris and Freeway.
During an appearance on Doggie Diamonds' "No Filter" podcast the Philadelphia rapper explained that the Megahertz-produced song originally had verses from label mates Cam'Ron and Juelz Santana, but as soon as Jay heard it playing in the studio he had them removed from the record.
"I listened to it and I was really excited and happy because I was proud," Peedi said. "While I'm listening to it Jay walked in the room. Jay was like, 'What's that shit?' I was like, 'That's some new shit I just did, Jay.' He said 'Let me hear it.' My verse come on and as soon as Cam come on, Jay tapped the engineer. 'Yo, stop that. Delete that shit.' I swear to God my heart dropped. He said 'Delete that shit, get that nigga off of there.'"
Peedi later spoke to Cam and told him what had happened. Killa told him not to sweat it. He had a copy of the original version and gave it to Peedi.
It ended up on a DJ Kay Slay mixtape. You can listen to it below.
