This post was solved by @lemonmelon, the song is “Paul Revere” (1986) by the Beastie Boys.

Don’t forget the clues, friends! The first clue I provided was that this song wasn’t released in the 90s and then got several guesses afterward that were all songs from the 90s. I’ve only got a few more posts left before I take my leave, it’s been fun but I’m usually not on often enough to keep up, so make sure to peep those clues on my final posts!

      A really great guess, definitely similarities, but unfortunately not the song. Here’s a hint: your song peaked in the Top Ten for the U.S. Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs Billboard weekly charts, my song didn’t chart in the Top Ten for that category but did chart in the Top 50.

      A good guess, but unfortunately not the song. Here’s a hint: your song was commissioned for a movie soundtrack, my song was not.

      A great guess that I was actually expecting sooner, but unfortunately not the right song! Here’s a hint: both of our songs have four people listed as the songwriters.

      Correct! That’s the song, you’re the winner, and this has been the story of three bad brothers and a little horsey named Paul Revere!

      Excellent guess, but unfortunately not the same song! Here’s a hint: your song features some truly fantastic verses from female rappers, my song does not.

      A really great guess but unfortunately not the right song. Here’s a hint, though I’m not sure anyone will see it since I seem to be the only one posting here that still gets downvoted into the negatives half the time just for playing: your song was released in 1998, my song released in a different decade.

      Unfortunately not the right song, but, while the horse here is not the famous Western star Trigger, the horse’s name is important to the song! Another clue: the song is in the Hip-Hop genre.
