I know it from somewhere other than 'I Got 5 on It.' What is it?" I hadn't heard "Why You Treat Me So Bad" in actual decades so I'd forgotten it and needed a search engine to help.
Given how deliberate Jordan Peele was about almost everything in Get Out, I can only think that he's aware that some of the audience is coming at the music he's using the same way I did.
