Sampling has become increasingly popular over the last few decades and this means that many of the most well known songs of the era are actually extensively based on other older, less well-known songs. So today we are going to take a look at 11 songs based on samples of older records.
📌1:50 I said "Summertime Madness" by Kool and The Gang, when the correct title is "Summer Madness". Sorry for any confusion caused and thanks to the commenters who brought it to my attention.
The outro music to this video is my track "Mothers Day" which you can hear in full on Spotify: open.spotify.com/artist/0wKKJ... 🎶

Su-su-su summertime. Summertime Madness...
It's cool - us "oldheads" knew what you meant 😊
4:30 Latto sampled Fantasy by Mariah Carey.
Another thing worth mentioning about 'Summertime' is that DJ Jazzy Jeff created and introduced the 'Transformer' scratch technique which is used on the sample.
Should I be sad that I was familiar with more of the samples than the newer songs? 😂
You could make an hour-long video about Daft Punk's use of sampling alone.
Would you mind saying a few songs (original and Daft Punk 'versions')?
@@CeceliPS3I can help.
Here's all the samples form the first 2 album:
ua-cam.com/video/gWB7QAiOdI4/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/11pK_yZNuQ4/v-deo.html
And honestly they're not even particularly impressive at it beside a few exceptions like Face to Face
there's this weird notion that Daft Punk were the sampling kings but a lot of their sample usage really was straightforward. Impressive for its time, but often basic in comparison to what's out there these days
They are the GOATs of sampling done right.
@@Rahlii Well, it's all relative of course. But compared to a lazy thief like Dr. Dre, Daft Punk are really the kings of sampling.
For their debut album Since I Left You, released in 2000, The Avalanches allegedly used 3,500 samples in total across its 18 tracks. We say 'allegedly' because even the duo of Darren Seltmann and Robbie Chater, the core of the band at the time, weren't sure of the number of samples.
Yes! Their track "Frontier Psychiatrist".. tour de force of sampling! It's such a weird song I have no idea how it even charted!
Peaked at #18 UK singles and 49 Albums chart
That boy needs therapy
purely psychosomatic ..
That boy needs therapy
Lie down on the couch! What does that mean?
You're a nut! You're crazy in the coconut!
Foooooking love it haha!
One of the best albums of all time
Yup. The Avalanches watching this video; “11 samples? That’s cute.”
And that is a banger of a track
Mary J. Blige also sampled Barry White's It's Ecstacsy When You Lay Down Next To Me. She is also a 90's R&B artist. A plethora of Hip Hop and R&B artists have sampled 50's,60's, and 70's music. I really enjoyed this video ! I learned a lot that I didn't know about. Great work:)
Exactly!!! How is he going to just completely skip over Mary like that with that sample tho? That's absolutely crazy!!
In the 90s, Puff Daddy/Diddy did a lot of the sampling for artist like Mary J.
@@missamercermaybe to keep the time down. He'll probably do more videos
@TheOneSymphony I certainly hope so!
Groove is in the heart is still an absolute dancefloor-banger 🤗
Agree, it's the sheer effort that's gone into it!
I love that song, not normally my taste but who can explain it
The videoclip is ridiculous.
I love deep techno, but that song always makes me wanna dance :)
@@joaopedrobaggio4475 love the videoclip, it's as silly as the track
"Miami" by Will Smith was based on the sample of "And The Beat Goes On" by The Whispers, "Steal My Sunshine" by Len was based on the sample of "More, More, More" by The Andrea True Connection, "Groovejet (If This Ain't Love)" by Spiller feat. Sophie Ellis-Bextor is based on the sample of "Love Is You" by Carol Williams, "My, My, My" by Armand Van Helden was based on the sample of "Comin' Apart" by Gary Wright and "Robot Rock" by Daft Punk was based on the sample of "Release The Beast" by Breakwater which I also remembered I might not have known.
Will Smith’s music is just as messed up as his marriage. He lets other men sample his wife 😂
Will Smith Man in black song Patrice Rushen forget me nots.
Yes @@bertalanduka and Fastlove by George Michael.
@@heathgarton3291 "Keep my sampling out of your f**king mouth!"
The interesting thing about the Bar-Kays sample is that its actually not fully in tune with the beat but slightly sharp, which gives it a bit more tension. Cool little detail.
Bless your ears!
Possibly because it's been sped up ever so slightly?
That's a point I've bring ppl attention , and it's because those players are human and for many reasons it can change .
Groove is in the Heart is such a decade defining gem! I enjoy listening to and watching the video as much now as when it came out!
Mary J. Blige's 1994 song You Bring Me Joy also sampled Barry White's Its Extacy When You Lay Down Next to Me. Every since I was a kid in the early 80's listening to Hip Hop djs. Discovering the original songs they sampled was always half the fun of listening.
Yes!!
Thank you! I was looking for this comment. I was like wait, I know that's a Mary song.
Two other Chic songs have been sampled in other famous songs:
- Le Freak -> Modjo - Chillin'
- Good Times -> Sugarhill Gang - Rapper's Delight
Not a simple on Rapper's Delight, an interpolation.
Chic Cheer -> "Love Like This" by Faith Evans
Good times's bass line was used in exactly 1881737282928262818 songs and counting
I read somewhere, that "Good Times" was no sampled, but the bass line was played by another bass player. I will have to check that.
@@kxam2Interpolation? Basically Rapper's Delight used the instrumental version with their rap over the top. I love both songs btw.
Groove is in the heart is one of my all time favourites. Beck samples Grrove is in the heart in his song Nicotine & Gravy.
without the sampling we wouldn't be here and listen to those goldies. thank you for creating this video ❤
Butterfly by Crazy Town and Steal My Sunshine by Len. Both of those are examples of songs I didn’t know included samples. And when I heard the originals, I couldn’t help but feel a bit sad and cheated.
I’m gonna be honest I did not know you were interested in the world of sampling jay but here we are, also when is the new map men 🙏🙏🙏
@@dimcats1he’s a talented musician it makes sense he would be interested in sampling and musical content more broadly
I knew about Butterfly being lifted from a chilli peppers track, but I had no idea about Steal My Sunshine!
Didn't know about "Steal My Sunshine"! Great example.
@@baalrog887yup
Samples More, More, More by Andrea True Connection
as always, a great lesson to make people aware of how modern pop music is made
Groove is in the Heart is such a wacky song and I had *NO* idea it had all of those samples. Some of those deep cuts feel so unnecessary, but they come together to make such a fun song, and I definitely appreciate their efforts.
The Men in Black song plays during the movie's closing credits and samples Forget Me Nots by Patrice Rushen (1982,) Will Smith's Wild, Wild West samples 1976 hit song "I Wish" and includes parts of the chorus from Kool Moe Dee's song of the same name.
That Art Of Noise "Hey" was so distinctive I've always assumed that it was a bit of a tribute to one of the pioneers of using samplers (though back then it was often sampling raw sounds).
Is that the "Hey" in the Bill Withers - Lovely Day (88 Sunshine Remix)?
@@flamencoprof it definitely sounds close to it. I had to look it up because I only have the original Lovely Day.
I don't think it is a coincidence that producer Trevor Horn was in Art Of Noise and produced Firestarter for The Prodigy.
Liam Howlett of the Prodigy is a sampling genius. The ones he chooses, how he manipulates and combines them; it’s just absolutely inspired. It’s practically an art form. Watch one of the videos where someone recreates a Prodigy song from scratch and be amazed.
I agree. The Breeders sample is so mangled that I never recognised it, but I've listened to Last Splash over and over, at a certain point it's more of a sound source than a sample.
Thanks for today’s deep dive!
Yeah he was great in his prime - breathe and Firestarter still sound absolutely otherwordly
Isn't he just 👌 _The_ (14min version) _Making of Smack My Bitch Up_ here on YT absolutely blew me away! It's nothing short of utter genius.
Liam is a damn genius ❤
Thank you for your incisive and detailed description of sampled songs, it is so informative.
Thank you 😊
PLEASE READ: Mary J. Blige also has a song that sampled Ecstasy from her album My Life 94. Also there are a lot of samples used by Stevie wonder aTupac has a harmonica sample in his song so many tears, Ushers song has a Stevie Wonder sample in Lil Freak, Coolio Gangsta paradise is also a Stevie Wonder sample. Will Smith Wild Wild West sample Stevie as well also Ja Rule’s Thug Luvin featuring Bobby Brown, The famous gospel group The Clark sisters! I could go and on! Stevie Wonder is my fave singer of all time clearly although I am just 35 I love and live for his music!
Reading up on Dan the Automator and finding out that the Gorillaz' debut is basically all samples was mind-blowing to me.
I know their other albums also use plenty of samples, but the debut is nearly 100%.
massive attack has some amazing sampling as well, and they have some little moments similar to Groove Is In The Heart where it feels unnecessary to the track but functions almost more as a nod to some of their influences. two that come to mind are the Velvet Underground sample in Risingson and the The Cure sample in Man Next Door. there are also other techniques they use that might not be straight up sampling but carry a lot of the same ethos-like the “automatic crystal remote control” line in risingson, and getting horace andy to sing a different version of his own song for Angel
assuming that's the one that samples Fire in Cairo because I felt pretty clever when I spotted that
@@kieranhyde8195 I believe it was 10:15 Saturday Night, tbh.
Groove Is In The Heart -- great song and a master class in taking previous hits and transforming them into something truly special.
David, you've completey uprooted my entire musical childhood. Crazy insights behind the history of instrumentals I grew up with.
Here's another one you could check out (one of my favorite sample connections)
"Hoochie-Coochie Man" (Muddy Waters) ->
"Bad To the Bone" (Delaware Destroyers- slightly modified to fit more in 12/8 or something like that) ->
"E.V.I.L. B.O.Y.S" (written and performed by Dan Povenmire and used in Phineas & Ferb, largely unchanged from the Destroyers lick- and yes, P&F fans, Dan *is* actually the "allergic" voice for Candace!)
Phineas and Ferb was probably the most pop culture oriented animated series on The Disney Channel, and pop music references and parodies in particular were so common.
Have you ever analyzed the many, many, many samples used in Frontier Psychiatrist by The Avalanches? That would be a fascinating video.
That boy needs therapy 👍
Purely psychosomatic!
Lying down on the couch. What does that mean?
@@nathansinclair9019 psychosomatic attakinsane!!!!
@@yoda6239 you're crazy in the coconut
Been fascinated with sampling since the ‘80s and one of my all-time favorite examples of perfectly-layered long-form samples is 1989’s “What U Waitin’ 4?” by the Jungle Brothers. Aside from multiple incidental samples, the rhythm, melody, and percussion throughout are from three separate songs and work together seamlessly 🥰
Other songs have used just as many samples or more, but few seem to belong together and groove so well as this. I’ll let you unpack what the source tracks were, but would love to see it covered in a future video 😁
Fantastic breakdown. I was not aware of the multiple samples for "Groove is in the Heart." Thanks for that. Subbed.
Don't think you've mentioned it so far in any of your other videos, but Paul Weller's "Changingman" has a pretty solid looped sample of ELO's "10538 Overture"
Ooh, I’ve been playing that for years on guitar and never knew that! Thanks.
I think that's more of an interpolation (Paul played the guitar himself) but yeah I went so long without knowing that it was from ELO
Interesting!! I'll check that out!
I'm a fan of Electric Light Orchestra, but I've never heard of that song. I'll have to listen to it at some point.
Edit: I listened to it, and I'm surprised at how unpolished it sounds. It seems like it could fit right in with the first few Queen albums in terms of tone. It's pretty great.
He also did a Taxman tribute with one of his Jam songs
Great video! I love finding the origins of samples in songs, it always makes me feel like I at least know at least a little bit about music, and that my ear is well-trained.
Excellent video. Being a music producer myself for the last 30 years, I knew most of these and others not mentioned using the same sample. But I def learned something on some of the uses. “Groove Is In The Heart” in particular. Well done!
Thank you David awesome work as usual! Sampling can really bring opposing worlds together in a way that conventional methods cannot. It can also teach us new approaches to arranging and writing.
Mariah Carey has sampled a lot. Heartbreaker is attack of the name game by Stacy lattisaw. Dream lover samples the emotions blind alley. Loverboy samples Cameo's candy. Honey samples several songs.
And she remade I'll Be There
Vocal track on 9:10 is by Sweet Pussy Pauline, she did vocals for a number of tracks in the house music scene, as well as spoken word.
A very educating and informative video for the musicians and also for the common people who enjoy listening music , especially these kind ! Congrats ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
There's also another kind of sampling: audio taken from motion pictures.
One example that comes to mind is the "Say that again?" from near the beginning of The Tribal Dance by Two Unlimited came from Back To The Future, Part I, when Marty is stuck in the trunk and first says "The keys are in here" to which Marvin Barry responds with that line.
I'd love to see a breakdown of something off if Paul's Boutique. Many of the songs use dozens of layered samples.
There's a video on UA-cam that breaks down all of their samples. It's very cool
@@bradywilliams2951 IT'S STAGGERING to follow along. The person who made that video deserves accolades for the deep research!
The number of songs that have sampled Genius of Love could justify its own video.
Brick City Mashin Redman the best
Same with Summer Madness
This series you're doing is really interesting! Honestly I stumbled on your channel tonight... 100% by chance. You really taught me a lot that I didn't know... Especially the part where you speak about groove is in the heart. Growing up... I remember writing in the car with my Aunt Tanya.. man groove is in the heart it was all over the radio!
Now I'm 34... And I find myself trying to hold on to those moments. When music was totally different. (There's more that I like to say other than just music was different... But I don't want to ruffle any feathers... So I will leave it at that.)
My apologies if I went on a rant... I do realize that may have happened.... It's just that your video brought back so many memories on top of as I said above teaching me a lot I didn't know.
Thanks 🙏🏼.
I hope all the original composers get their money
Did not expect to hear a bellydance instruction song in one of your videos...
What's one Will Smith song that doesn't sample? Everybody in the last 35 years grew up listening to generations of music borrowers.
That slap he did was original.
That's why I started to listen to the funk,soul,r'n'b and gospel music. It completly change my view and understanding of almost every music Gener nowdays.
And black rooted music artists have sooo big impact on music generaly that is unbeliveble.
That one song he did called switch lol
😂😅😂😅😂
Parents just don't understand🤓
That was absolutely great man. Groove is in the heart was the ish!!!
A sampling dear to my heart is Michael Jackson's use of "meme sama makossa" taken from Manu Dibango's Soul Makossa, later sampled by Rihanna Don't stop the music.
I'm from Cameroon like Manu Dibango, little known country, but to hear his sound reprised by the biggest names in music is heartwarming.
Not a sample
Yeaaaa
At times I find sampling a little lazy/riding on other's coattails, but Groove is in the Heart... wow, that's creative
'Groovejet' by Spiller ft. Sophie Ellis-Bextor samples 'Love is You' by Carol Williams, a 1975 disco hit
Recently I discovered that crazy town used a sample from a RHCP song so when researching about it I ended up here and this was a gift for me. Your videos are incredible work! Subscribed! 🤩
Thank you!!
This was such a cool educational video. I knew some but you educated me on a lot of the songs we have now.
I'd love to hear a meta-analysis of something like Girl Talk - All Day. Samples upon samples remixed together, at one point Deee-Lite is part of a remix which is made of samples in the first place.
Girl Talk's mashup albums are definitely a product of it's time, but they're still great fr
Portishead has some cool sampling lore. Pressing their own records to sample and then scraping them up so they sound old. Really cool and creative. I friggin love samplers
Yes!!! I love Portishead, and I love samplers!
@@ababin3 Same! I’ve been acquiring a bunch of old ones lately. It’s sort of becoming a problem tbh haha
@@G.GordonMidi I totally understand! 😂
Absolutely loving the breakdown of samples in Groove is in the Heart!
Thanks for the great video, it's very informative. My English is quite poor, so please forgive me, but I remember that in the early days of rap and hip-hop, sampling was the basis of the music, and dubbing accordingly was a feature, while in the 70's progressive rock was sampling from spontaneous sources.
In any case, I see this as an opportunity to re-evaluate sampled songs and musicians.
I think it has become an unwritten rule that people on the internet who say "My English is not very good" (or words to that effect) then go on to demonstrate a considerably better mastery of the language than many who have it as their mother tongue. Your use of English is beautiful. Don't ever think otherwise!
I used to hate sampling, thinking it was lazy and unoriginal. But it's a great way to discover new songs and if done right, it can produce some of the coolest backing tracks you'll ever hear.
Oh, it's still just as lazy and unoriginal as it's ever been. The only saving grace is that it does act as an advertisement of sorts for great forgotten songs. That doesn't make it any more innovative. Quentin Tarantino reintroduced the world to surf rock after Pulp Fiction, but that doesn't make him a great musician by any stretch of the imagination. Interestingly enough, I'm aware that many film snobs refer to his own directorial work derivative, but the difference is that he steals the cinematic equivalent of LICKS, not the SHOTS from the original films themselves. Sampling is no more "musical" than a television advertisement is.
@@ignatiusjackson235 Even the "laziest" sampling recontextualizes a piece of music and requires additional editing around the music to reinforce the beat/bass/melodic elements. All its own creative process. Good sampling requires enough musicianship to know how to do all of this. Using an element of something from something else doesn't automatically void everything about it.
It's at this point a 50+ year old celebrated technique in music used by greats such as Daft Punk, The Avalanches, J Dilla, Stevie Wonder, Flying Lotus, and countless others.
3 Feet High & Rising, one of the best Hip Hop albums ever, didn’t get a rerelease for decades because of sampling issues.
Prince Paul is the f'kin man!!!
Bootylicious's riff-- Stevie Nicks "was inspired by" or based the guitar off The Police's Bring on the Night, so let's credit the original source
i had never heard or noticed that bellydancing intro to "groove is in the heart" until very recently, and as soon as i heard it i recognized the sample as the basis for the tyler the creator song "i ain't got time!" it's really interesting to see a sample that was purely used for flavor in one song become the basis for an entire new song for another artist, and tyler seems to really love picking up obscure or interesting samples
The groove for “Steal My Sunshine” (1999) was entirely the break from “More More More” (1976)
Fav sample
Awesome! More please!
I actually learned most of these from a podcast called 60 Songs to Explain the 90’s. But you definitely went into more detail.
Awesome post! Thank you! 🔥
Dee-lite creation is brilliant. It reminds me of the De La Soul Album 3 feet and rising...
The interesting thing is, that some producers use samples, without permission or paying for the rights and they think they can get away with it. Like Kanye West did with a song of Omega (Pearls in her hair) in the original version of New Slaves.
Yeah, this would be a really good one to feature, given the length of sample used (around 1 minute 20s), the complex legal dispute around it, the stark change of style at the point it comes in and that the track is in English, but some of the original Hungarian lyrics feature prominently at the end. It is from an extremely well-known song in Hungary, but not well-known from outside.
Hey, Thanks very much for your research and resulting presentation. I really enjoyed this video.
Here's two for you:
_ Fatboy Slim - Gangster Trippin, sampled Ann Robinson's You dit It + Jackie Mitoo's Change the Mood, and the scratches part is from Premier on the X-Executioners LP.
_De La Soul - Ring Ring ring, sampled ,The Whatnauts's Help Is On The Way, breakbeat from Impeach The President by The Honeydrippers, Lou Johnson's The Beat.
The Barry White it's Ecstasy was also sampled by Mary J. Blige song you bring me joy on her 1995 album my life.
I was about to comment the same! I don't even know who that artist is that he mentioned! I wore Mary J's CD out when I first got it...I think it was her best!
If you want some examples of songs that sample multiple other songs, you should check some Soul Coughing. Down to This samples a ton of songs and most songs sample a lot of things (songs and other stuff like ads) thanks to Mark Degli Antoni who played keyboards in the band and loved to play with samples.
"Alright" by Janet Jackson, the CJ Mackintosh hip hop remix, samples "Earth Gaia" (about 5.45), which was in turn based on a sample of the drum intro to Prince's track "Release It".
One to add to the list is the unmistakable opening guitar riff from Isaac Hayes "Theme from Shaft" and Young MCs' "Know How". I love both songs.
Personally I love sampling as it can lead to some very creative beats, breaks and sonic surprises. Back in the day was a challenge to get samples from existing recordings, but I would try my best with the good old Casio SK1 and then later with a Commodore Amiga. Finding those good loop points, still dabble a bit now with the power of the PC and even the mobile phone just for entertainment purposes.
H ave really enjoyed this series of videos, realising where some audio samples have come from, even trying to spot them in today's music.
I agree Justin, I had a Akai S2000 with 2MB 💾 drive. What is annoying today is when I upload my whitelabel records to UA-cam, then get hit with a copyright ©️ infringement for a song from 1981 with the complaint from a 2007 song. I don't bother uploading my music since then.
Excellent video and very well narrated. I knew Liam Howlett used loads of samples but didn’t realise that Deelite were using so many in one song. Thanks David
Love this, so interesting ❤

Please may you do a video breaking down the composer Todd Rundgren? He is brilliant and pretty much any song you choose to break down will be enough honestly
I can tell how excited you are for this it’s great
Fantastic work and research :)
Latto used genius of love too.
“Someone to Call My Lover” by Janet Jackson has, in my opinion, the most out of pocket samples of any song I’ve heard. The guitar from America’s “Ventura Highway” mixed with Gymnopedie No. 1.
You taught me so much in this video. Thank you!
Great 😊
Thanks! I love this kind of Material!
Now do Avalanches - Since I Left You. Good luck with that one 😉
It could be interesting to do something about the meta of songwriters making instrumentals hoping to be sampled. It’s definitely a thing. The way songs are written to appeal to sampled “moments”.
do you have an example of this? seems interesting but nothing comes to mind
@@juicebox9657because it's not a real thing
@@juicebox9657 isn't that the business model of all those sample websites like Splice? Musicians subscribe to get "download tokens" which allow them to download samples/loops made by other musicians who will get a few cents for every download from the website. Some write entire songs and put the separate tracks (bass, guitars, vocals, drums) up for download.
I truly enjoyed this video👍🏾
Thanks 😊
Brilliant 👏🏽 ❤
“Hey, Will Smith: Keep my song’s sample out your f-kin’ mouth!”
Lol!
😂
😂😂😂😂
😧😧😧😧😧😧😧😧
I won't ever discredit these and those extraordinary creative people, who had these ideas to mix and sample all these great songs together. It's truly beautiful and it has expanded our ideas about music so far and beyond. But it's just not the same as an original song, composed and written by the artist or a band. I don't know, maybe that's just my preference and it hits to my feelings more.
I don't want to fight, I just feel this way, some of my favourite albums are based on samples.
I really like these videos, please everyone, have a pleasant evening and hopefully even better day tomorrow. And if you're sad, just remember you're not alone.
This was great 🎶💪
"The Long Way Home" by Terry Oldfield (the 14 minute version) was sampled in "Eggshell" by Future Sound Of London.
Did Deee-Lite get in legal trouble?
I know De La Soul was hit hard by lawsuits.
Anyway, So Here I Come with Neneh Cherry is another great one with a lot of samples. I can't remember if you've covered it already.
So we just...we just gonna sit here and act like Mary J Blige's "You Bring Me Joy" didn't exist? Is that what we doin' now? 😐😑😔
Holy shit this is EPIC!!! I am a house music aficionado of over 20 years, I love discovering original tracks as house music also borrows A LOT from soul and disco and r'n'b. But most of these were unknown to me. Except Modjo of course. I also love the Stardust¨s sample of Chic's Fate for their bombastic Music Sounds Better With You. Great video!!!!!!
Daft Punk song " Digital Love" sampled the intro music from George Duke's song "I love you more" from his 1979 album "Master of the Game."
Some other examples of sampling I can think of
- Original: Nirvana - Very Ape (1993)
- Sampled In: The Prodigy - Voodoo People (1994)
- Original: ELO - Telephone Line (1977)
- Sampled In: Green Day - 21 Guns (2009)/Pokémon Diamond/Pearl - Route 209 (2010)
- Original: Metallica - For Whom the Bell Tolls (1984)/Falco - Rock Me Amadeus (1985)/Bandai-Namco - Pac-Man Theme (1980)
- Sampled In: Bloodhound Gang - Mope (1999)
- Original: Lynyrd Skynyrd - Sweet Home Alabama (1973)/Warren Zevon - Werewolves of London (1978)
- Sampled In: Kid Rock - All Summer Long (2007)
- Original: Norman Greenbaum - Spirit in the Sky (1969)
- Sampled In: Fall Out Boy - I Don’t Care (2008)
- Original: King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man (1969)
- Sampled In: Kanye West - Power (2010)
- Original: Daft Punk - Harder Better Faster Stronger (2001)

Now i know why all of will smiths songs slaps so hard
The Barry White song was sampled a few years earlier by Mary J. Blige for the song "You Bring Me Joy" off her seminal 1994 sophomore LP, "Mary".
Oh Man what a deep dive ❤thank you
I see David Bennett, I upvote. Then I watch the video.
☺️☺️
Chilites said that's when they saw real money when Beyonce sampled their music. 💰 🤑 💸
Great video, one of my favorite samples in music is Sunrise that takes one of th BEST song in history, I Can't Go for That (No Can Do)
One of my favorites is Andrea True Connection's "More, More, More" being sampled for Len's "Steal My Sunshine".
