RZA is a muthafuckin musical genius! it takes mad talent to sample a song like that and use it in a banger like "ice cream"....... 21-gun salute from eastern nc!
This sample is nice and whatnot but obviously RZA combined more than just one sample to create Ice Cream. RZA samples like 3 and 4 records at a time for one song. He's a legend, simple
Scratch that. It's still the strings. "Ice Cream" has the piano behind them. Sampling makes me appreciate the hip hop producers that put work into re-creating older songs.
THIS IS AMAZING . One of my most sought after samples. RZA is king. I always thought it was a piano sample... he must have lowered the sampled rate on the ASR or whatever he was using for the beat.... thank you!!
Just bein honest I would've skipped right over this sample and my man went on to make one of the hardest beats of all time with it.. That's why sampling in hip hop is so special. You can take a small 20 second clip and make a masterpiece out of it. Salute the god!!
Me too up until the last couple of years I would have just heard the first 1 or 4 bars at the most fast forward it like twice and when I heard no more instruments tossed it now since strings are in I would have listened to the whole thing but it would have been like 1 in a million for me to catch those notes and heard how they could sound good on a 90s boom bap beat I mostly would have not even picked up on those couple of notes
All I hear are 3 notes that get looped and I think he adds a forth every 4 or 8 bars to switch it up in the full song but I just hear 3 notes on this clip
The thing RZA did at the time is unmatched because he was using that ASR-10. Anyone who uses it or has used it knows that some nights when you all high or drunk or both, you just go through so many records and you can compose a hot joint just by using pieces of music instead of trying to sample a whole damn song. Just sounds and interesting licks, hits, stabs (notice those now exist within sampled soundbanks) but back then you had to get it!!!
You underestimate the power of Ensoniq sampling technology from the late 80s/early 90s... ASR processed those samples in a unique way not to be duplicated by todays modern technology.
woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! i thought i would never hear this sample! for a while i thought it was played
I read some were that the "Ice Cream" beat inspired Mathematics to start producing, he heard Rza every hour using 7 or 8 different samples and when he heard it finished he couldn't believe the final product. Rza layered this with so many sounds it is ridiculous.
@cKunke2 I'm glad you understand where I'm coming from. Most people don't when I've said this on other forums. I've no issue with the copyright laws that the US brought in, but aside from Corporate influence over artists' output, and laziness the biggest reason for the sanitised Black music we have today is the fact that people can't really sample properly anymore. The producers that do/did can't because idiots literally steal other people's work with no alterations or additions.
Love the demo bro! I don't agree with the philosophies of Rza/Wu-tang, but Rza Crack my dome open to the possibilities of what could be sampled and how to flip a sample.
yeah man making music is an amazing thing, like magic, dope shit... i dont understand why people saying it was a mystery, isnt it the album credits? or just un earth the song.. anyway i love vids like this, dope stuff
On Twitter he said "wait people are just finding out that's the sample to Ice Cream? Lol hilarious" not a direct quote but it was something similar to that lol
@mikespits When they sampled even if they are not listed in albums they are still paid, legal departments usually handle all payments to appropriating (if there is such a term) parties. other what you foremention would then just ensue (literally) Just a reply..
@thatunit995 well yeah of course I agree. But that's not what has been done here though is it now? It's a very small section which has been looped, pitched and sped up. That's wholly different from the P Diidy school of sampling for example which just lifts the sample with no adjustments.
RZA EARS SHOULD BE IN A MUSEUM!!!!!
#FACTS
Mista Savage Man uranium shit!!!!! P2TG
Agreed!!!. Let's cut them off and make it happen.
Tai Quality BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHBWAAHAHA 😂 YES,I’ll get the scissors ✂️ and you’ll get the car now let’s ride out!let’s go!!!!
😂😂😂facts
RZA is a muthafuckin musical genius! it takes mad talent to sample a song like that and use it in a banger like "ice cream".......
21-gun salute from eastern nc!
Its brilliant...the song in no way sounds like it could become a banger...its litterally sleeping music..
Ice cream is a smooth but energetic song
@@ArMiNiSfUCkinRedicK my samples better
RZA's ears are razor fuckin sharp
RZA found the perfect loop
best sample RZA ever flipped.
100% By far
I just heard the sample for Triumph today. Idk. It's close. Lol
Mr. Sandman comes close. Now that one gave me goosebumps!
Curtis Pea Word, that's a really good one too!
BR1AN21 Tres Leches (Triboro Trilogy) is up there with this one.
0:35 Is when the magic happens
this just made Ice Cream a dark track ...RZA a LEGEND💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
ToneTone 1000!!!!
Holy shit. Rza be deep in them crates kid. This is one of the reasons why I love hip-hop. How cool is this?!!
RZA ears are a masterpiece
did anybody else get goosebumps?
yes, yes!
I'm getting spines up and down my chill.....
duuude, I got them as fuck!
Holy shit!!!! The way that was flipped....i wasnt hearing it at first....then when 0:36 came..
Mind blown
Wow Never heard a sample flipped so good
This sample is nice and whatnot but obviously RZA combined more than just one sample to create Ice Cream. RZA samples like 3 and 4 records at a time for one song. He's a legend, simple
thats the true definition of flippin a sample!!! ill
Scratch that. It's still the strings. "Ice Cream" has the piano behind them.
Sampling makes me appreciate the hip hop producers that put work into re-creating older songs.
Pure sickness. Amazing how a beautiful song becomes a hip-hop classic. Much respect for posting this
crazzy!!! damn it took 15 years to find this shit.....RZA's best kept secret unearthed!! Props to the cat that unearthed this shit....RZA is a genius
THIS IS AMAZING . One of my most sought after samples. RZA is king.
I always thought it was a piano sample... he must have lowered the sampled rate on the ASR or whatever he was using for the beat.... thank you!!
This should be in the top 2 uploads to UA-cam of all time!
Only RZA can turn a calm and relaxing song into a party gangster rap beat.
Just bein honest I would've skipped right over this sample and my man went on to make one of the hardest beats of all time with it.. That's why sampling in hip hop is so special. You can take a small 20 second clip and make a masterpiece out of it. Salute the god!!

Incredible.. I wish i had an ear for shit like that. That shit would've went right over my head.

Wow!!! FINALLY, I hear the original. Appreciate the upload. Always thought it was a piano. That's a trip. So simple but mesmerizing!
"AAHHHHHHHHHHHH YYOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!". yes. im 45, established, and still enthralled with the culture
Wow!!! FINALLY, I hear the original. Appreciate the upload. Always thought it was a piano. That's a trip.
This is a Masterpiece and da Brother Rza is a mastermind for sampleing that piece
Wow, all these years, I thought it was a piano sample.
Wow! It's dope how you got and looped the exact sound.
rza has an amazing mind
the most amazing music of all time
I just shat my pants when the sampled part came on... OMG
that was so worth the wait
Like how you let us listeners know how this was sampled. Thanks for that:)
Good job man, I like this one a lot. Thanks a lot!!
I understand why Raekwon said that RZA had lost his ears. Back then he was a beast.
God ,some of the producers are masters at what they do.
I Agree I Cant Believe a 15 Second Sample Made A Classic Song.
That is astonishing. I can’t say much more.
Wow! That track goes so hard!
You underestimate the power of Ensoniq sampling technology from the late 80s/early 90s... ASR processed those samples in a unique way not to be duplicated by todays modern technology.
But I thought Rza used a sp1200
Goosebumps.....
Great found...!
woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! i thought i would never hear this sample! for a while i thought it was played
Earl Klugh - A Time For Love, from 0,35 to 0,38 is the part looped and accelerated for Raekwon - Ice Cream
0:35 Still gets me, crazy how RZA found that.🔥
genius, this is amazing
DAMN DAMN DAMN!!!
I read some were that the "Ice Cream" beat inspired Mathematics to start producing, he heard Rza every hour using 7 or 8 different samples and when he heard it finished he couldn't believe the final product. Rza layered this with so many sounds it is ridiculous.
Earl Klugh!
OMFG. RZA is a Genius!!!
GENIOUS!!!!!
Genius
Beautiful *o*
RZA is a genius......
That flip from the sample is dope lol
rza you freakin genius !!!! best kept wu secret
Excellence!

HOLY SHIT!
Daaayuummm!!! Earl Klugh huh? Who would've thought?

The mood change at the half of the song is like: "yeah let's create something that will be sampled in the future" 😂

That crazy how RZA made this beat
praise the LORD.
Apparently Just Blaze has known this sample 4 quite a while
Love the demo bro!
I don't agree with the philosophies of Rza/Wu-tang, but Rza Crack my dome open to the possibilities of what could be sampled and how to flip a sample.
Now that this one is out of the way,does anyone have the Crooklyn Dodgers sample?
@nerd213 ..That's for the 2nd one...I was looking for the first one
blew my fuckin mind , good find. PEACE TO THE W CORP!
RZA Is THE Shaolin geniu!!
o shit, RZA YOU FUCKING GENIUS!!!!
Alchemist is nasty. RZA IS GLORIOUS!
RZArector
Anyone who does not listen to all types of music, especially Funk and soul music, dont know hip hop.
Wow for so long I though RZA sample the Mr. Softee theme
It’s been sped up and processed enough so that your ear’s playin’ tricks on you. Peace.
My mind playing tricks on me
Rza is a genius
w0w :)
rza *bows down*
yeah man making music is an amazing thing, like magic, dope shit... i dont understand why people saying it was a mystery, isnt it the album credits? or just un earth the song.. anyway i love vids like this, dope stuff
Nope. Wasn't in the album credits.
@@KAs619 then hopefully Earl (the genius) got paid. Jazz legend!!!
HOW DID HE DO THIS??? OMG>>>>>
And for once, it's not just first measures beat. Right within a track. RZA, you naughty you.
@eastskier57 actually it's not a guitar, it's a harp lol
On Twitter he said "wait people are just finding out that's the sample to Ice Cream? Lol hilarious" not a direct quote but it was something similar to that lol
0:00 to 0:015 did Florence + The Machine sampled this for the Stand By Me remix?

@mekz100 dont feel bad, i always thought the Shook Ones 2 sample was a guitar and turns out it's piano.
