"N 2 Gether Now" is the one where Limp Bizkit put the guitars down. Cut for their second album, Significant Other, and sent out as its third single in 1999 alongside "Break Stuff", it pairs Fred Durst with Method Man, who had heard about the band and wanted a shot at working with a rock group for the first time. Wes Borland and Sam Rivers sit this one out; by Borland's account the idea was a track that was straight hip-hop.
DJ Lethal built the first version of the beat on a demo, and DJ Premier of Gang Starr, wary at first, came in to rework it and produce. The result is a head-nodding boom-bap strut, Durst and Method Man trading verses over Premier's gritty loop, and a reminder of where Durst and Lethal came from.
