Drunken Tiger - 8:45 Heaven

Drunken Tiger member Tiger JK wrote this song during the production of his 2007 album, Sky is the limit. The song is called 8:45 Heaven because that was the official time (8:45am) his grandmother passed away and this song was written in her memory. The original instrumental of this song is from MC Juice's Sick of Hustlin'.
