Goldie’s Parade is the ninth track (seventh song) on the New Power Generation’s first ’solo' album Gold Nigga (eighth track and sixth song on later pressings of the CD). While specific recording dates are not known, basic tracking took place in late April 1992, at Studios 301, Sydney, Australia (on the same night as the tracking of Peach, Goldnigga, Deuce & A Quarter, Everybody Get On Up, A 1,000 Hugs And Kisses and Baby Doll). The track contains sampled lines of dialogue by Stanley Fields as Sam Vettori from the 1931 movie Little Caesar (taken from Simon Harris’ "Beats, Breaks & Scratches" series, namely You Stick Around on the seventh volume) and from Goldnigga.
