Maybe it's the title, "In the Air Tonight"?

Cuz it's not the Tupac version?

But like, even before Tupac did that, I'm 90% sure "In the air tonight" was literally the song that made Phill blow up with the Black community specifically.

He got sampled a lot and would feature on tracks, which is common now but not 30-40 years ago. But I'm pretty sure all that was because of the original version of this song.
