We crossed paths in similar weed circles. I first met Michael Marshall around 2012 when I was living in San Francisco. “I’m one of the people you’re playing in your car all the time!” said that man, Michael Marshall.

Messin’ with that indo weed, I got five on it….Partna let’s go half on a sack.” In fact, it’s the only part from the song that plays throughout the trailer.īut the man behind that famous hook? He’s feels he’s been nearly erased from the song’s legacy. It’s the chorus, and the distinctive refrain that everyone sings: “I got five on it. When you think about the song, though, the part that sticks isn’t the rap verses by Luniz or any of the rappers on the remix like E-40, although they’re all dope. People are not only reminiscing about how great the song is (which is literally what the parents in Us are telling their children as the trailer opens), but are also shocked at how well it plays as the theme to a horror film. Since the trailer’s release, the song has seen a sudden resurgence in popularity. The song that serves as the backdrop to the Us trailer? “I Got 5 on It,” remixed to sound pretty horrifying. On Christmas, Academy Award winner Jordan Peele dropped the trailer for Us, his highly anticipated follow-up to Get Out.
