As soon as I saw a long form video in my suggestions, I clicked! He songs exactly as I imagined (his face and the "tall" impression I have of him always fit with this voice)
I agree! It really depends on how much effort and thinking goes into the sample. If it's chopped and/or sampled in a way that it's something completely new (Face to Face), it's different than basically just interpolating 80% of the song and changing nothing but the lyrics (I'm Good (Blue)). Then you have the latter, but it's actually executed well because there's a new element brought to the interpolation, or it's used in a way it wasn't before (Can't Touch This, NWA's Express Yourself, Kanye's Good Life, Lil Boo Thang, etc).
Incredible sampling. They made their own type of sampling with that album, especially with Face To Face. Most songs nowadays don’t have that heart and soul in sampling like older artists do or songs do.
The thing is, Daft Punk have sampled old 70s/80s disco, funk, and soul songs and somehow managed to make them sound like their own, they’d cut out certain parts of the song and replace them and would end up recreating everything from scratch. House and old school rap are a great example of how awesome and creative sampling can really be.
I think sampling does give new life to older songs, there's so many songs that we haven't heard and those who sample it makes us the listeners wanna go back and check out the original. At least that's what I do
Depends though. For example Take On Me is still far more relevant and better than any song that has sampled it through the years. Feel This Moment is a particular bad example.
Yup@@pradeeppandey1978! Mariah is a songwriter and writes most, if not all of her own songs. Janet also has a huge hand in the making of her music, idk if she does it all herself, but she still has a huge hand in what the songs are
Sample is a minor problem with music, The Real Problem is over commercializing this problem. Growing up in the 90s you realize how older ideas, fashions, and products are marketed to the younger generation, this still continues today maybe cause the lack of cultural identity. It’s like fast food and frozen dinners are look at as American cuisine.
Ppl will sell what they think/know will sell well. They may have "target markets" but if you will give them your money they wont complain where its coming from.
Thank you for reminding us that music has become an industry with massive studios having to produce hits. This also explains why so many songs sound the same. Thanks for all your videos ! Your musical knowledge is so impressive ! Hello from a French fan ! 😊
@@paquinraino8180Record labels actually used to mind their own business up until now with taking most of the money away from the artists. Thanks to Spotify.
You're explanation about the difference between sampling and interpolation, is the clearest, easiest to understand I've ever heard. Your knowledge and love of music is so clear and you share it without vanity or expectations in a chill, very likable way. Keep em coming Sir!
I like samples/interpolations like what Beyoncé did with "America Has A Problem" and what Doja did with "Agora Hills". Other than specific examples like that, the rest of these "cheat-code" type songs are soooo tired like they don't even try any more to make it their own like NLE Choppa "Hot In Here" for example.
See the thing is- sampling is an art form, but that’s when it’s done correctly, or creatively. While it’s all subjective, simple chorus and melody bites are tedious, manipulating the sample in creative ways is absolutely incredible. Even interpolation can be great, I personally love hearing Slick ricks “La di da Di” influence even today.
@@vladago sample chop a song rn and see how “easy” it is. I think that yes there is something to say about songs that are just the direct melody can be pretty lazy. Chopping your samples and having the ear to be able to make a song sound completely different takes talent.
You're voice is so much deeper than I thought. Great video on highlighting how even the music industry has become remake revamp reboot as has everything in Hollywood.
That's the way of the world. Mainstream always steals from the underground and counter culture. Look at tattoos. They used to be for losers, gang bangers and ex-cons but now every dipshit lame pop artist has a sleeve tattoo. Everything cool gets taken, watered down and repackaged for the unwashed masses.
I think messing with the sample like microsampling, layering samples, or altering samples in pitch or speed while also adding something new in the mix is the most creative. Throwing in a sample for the beat or interpolating a melody can be cool, but you can do so much more with it.
One T - The Magic Key is for me one of my fav sampled song, i can't stop listening this sound and it makes me remind of this old song i had forgotten, It makes me remembers tons of memory and this is why sampling old school is so cool. You remember those old times when you were listening the original one. For this song, i ended up liking both song a lot
I personally agree with sampling and interpolation as long as the sampling or interpolating artist make the original piece different. However, I DO feel that they have become overused in recent years.
"Buliding the future and keeping the past alive are one and the same thing" - Solid Snake, MGS2 Nothing has ever been original the way I see it, after all it's a part of who we are, we make something, it influences someone to make something like it and the cycle repeats, things don't just appear out of thin air. Like for example, rock n roll (which was originally a slang term for sex) was influenced by black music like blues, and artists like Kurt Cobain, Pink Floyd, The Beatles and Queen used to be influnced by artists like Jimi hendrix and Little Richard, who was a mentor to the beatles. And they were very influential as a result, influencing artists like Gorrilaz, Radiohead, Tame impala and many many more. Sampling is no different and artists also sampled in their music back then, it was called musique concrete, artists like The Beatles utilized it on their songs before, and sampling is the modern day concept of that, we take sounds and turn it into a new, unique thing. Of course this doesn't happen all the time with people like Diddy and Dj Khaled being a thing and the current state of sampling and music in general at a all time low, but that doesn't mean that music is dead and we should all just stop listening to it, what you need to do is broaden your horizons, you can't keep listening to the same thing over and over again and hear one song that isn't what you listen to and say music is dead because of ONE song, but humans are stubborn in nature sooo... If you want to hear the music you want to hear, then why not actually try something new for once? Lil Yachty made a psychadelic rock album earlier this year and jack harlow made a album that was really good (to me of course) and it's like i'm the only person on the internet who remembers them, I haven't seen anyone else talk them anywhere, it's like everybody wants to be the same, want to have the same music taste. Sampling exists for a reason, we sample because it's fun, we have no access to other kinds of instruments, which is one of the reasons why hip hop became a thing, to try different ways of making music, after all you can't keep using the guitar forever, you gotta try something new, and most importantly, to reintroduce these things to a new generation, because it's human nature to pass down things from one another, it's what makes us who we are, if we didn't do that, then who are we then? "There are just not memories of the past. There are also memories of today and tomorrow." - Lain, Serial Experiments Lain Everything is a cycle, always has been, so there will always be people criticizing others for what they do, so (idk how many years from) there will always be the older generation criticizing the newer generation, whether it be games, music, movies or whatever, and of course there will always be people making the things you want to watch, play or listen to, it's humanity after all, so when this year becomes a long time ago, there will always be humans being influenced by what was being made in this year, the past and the future, so this generation will be sampling by what they were was listening to in this year and the next will do the same and the next for years to come. That Lil Yachty album and many more are obscure for now, but when the day comes when someone finds that record or another and samples it for their next song, people are going to be introduced to something they didn't hear before, and are going to sample it/be influenced by it for their next work and the cycle repeats. "Understand the beginning to be the end and nothing is in between but space and time that I make, or you make, to relate, or not to relate, to the world outside my mind, your mind." - The Last Poets, When the Revolution Comes
I used to love the old hip hop samples because, at the very least, they were a mindful and zesty interpretation of the original song. My theory with an artist like Kanyé is ppl are mostly hypnotized by his work because of how fantastically he samples old school music and infuses it into hip-hop. Nowadays newer songs with samples tend to be uninspired and unimaginative. That Nicki ‘Super Freak’ song gave off such a carbon copy vibe. When this happens, the opposite effect of what the artist wants occurs, making me want to forget their new single exists, rushing back to the original to cleanse my palette. I felt this way, too, big time about Latto’s “Big Energy.” Geesh. This might all be subjective but I honestly think the tradition and quality of sampling has gone down overall. If you’re gonna use someone’s else’s ish, make it worth our time!
@@tatianacabral4988 That was Tink! Normani came out many years later 🤗 Although I love Tink, and she did have some cool melodies on that song, it was still too similar to the original so I hear ya
Ooh! YT finally placed something of yours a little newer, on my feed. Thank you for touching on this topic. Prince spoke on it extensively, and was extremely against all of the unoriginal sampling and artists not owing their masters, etc. Sadly 3 of the most original artists we had (Prince, MJ, & Rick James) are no longer here.
Thanks for explaining, and your approach makes it better. You changed my mind, now i think is good that new generations discover old hits thanks to new artists !
The record labels have got completely out of control. It was trending that way already, many bands in the 70’s made songs describing their dissatisfaction with the labels, and now look where we are.
Thank you for the video. I appreciate you! Much love! :-) I totally agree on all you said and that it does shed light on the older artist so that this generation and furthermore can hear and listen to them. However I’m sort of tired of the “NO” real discovery of taking the risk of being creative. I like when you sit just really create “new music” that is truly your own! And most times those artist that are not big never get the time of day to be in the spotlight or some label ends up using their song and sometimes not giving the original artist credit. Also, think that now a days my millennial and gen x (if not)…please take a course on or google MUSIC HISTORY because that will educate the heck out of you. I just dislike when say that a new artist…no that artist has been around for years it’s just you did not two seconds to google the name and be like ohhhhh snap they been in the game for a hot minute. And also challenge people to create a song…I did that for a project in college or these music camps they have and just have fun. Overall, I think you see in Hollywood that it’s sort recycling itself and it’s so so true! So maybe let’s get some originality and some creativity back.
Another point is that when creating a new song an artist runs the risk of accidentally (or purposefully) using the same or similar melody to another popular song they heard before and could get sued. [Example: Ed Sheeran]
Those are really great points and it makes sense because beauty is in the eye of the beholder and familiar things tend to be more beautiful, likeable. It’s understandable, although sometimes it’s a little cheap, but that’s ok to not take art so seriously all the time
Sampling and plagiarism are two different things. Sampling is creating a new work of art on the structure of a prior work of art. This pretty much references the artist's influence and inspiration. Plagiarism on the other hand is blatantly stealing other artists work and trying to pass it off as your own. I'm all for inspiration and influence. Not theft.
@@worldhello1234 I wouldn't argue that, I agree 100% on that. However, you can steal someone's "thunder" lol. But you're correct, ideas aren't scarce but the accent is literally an individualized element that cannot be stolen-its impossible. It's Copyright law and Rights to license all that jazz that make the industry a very dog-eat-dog place. It can be a safe spot and/or a detrimental place for music.
Speaking of why… why is the first time I’m hearing this man’s voice and I’m in love ? Please read me bed time stories lol your voice is sooo smooth and soothing.
Sampling itself can be great. Even full on covers can be great. But it often isn't great when it's done as a shortcut, which increasingly is the case now. (Also, "Superfreak" is a better song than "U Can't Touch This," and I'm tired of pretending it's not).
I don’t listen to the radio much nowadays, and when I do, it’s mostly those “best hits of the 80s, 90s and todays” channels, because the pop and Top 40 are constantly playing back-to-back Taylor Swift and the hip-hop and R&B stations, all of their music is just my music from the 90s, but bad. They even sample stuff that was already sampled, like Mariah Carey’s Fantasy and Mario Winan’s I Don’t Wanna Know
Clicking on this was my first time hearing your voice and OMG bro! I almost 🥜’d ‼️ Witchyo silky smooth, buttery, Barry White face ahhh voice 😩 Pause tho‼️
As someone who creates music, I really do want a second chance for a melody or a rhythm. I am not against that. It would be nice if I get some compensation for the work I do.
QuestLove also spoke about that - using a sample - is a Cheat code for the your brain because you are more inclined to like this new melody . As for me I am down for a new melody a new approach..
Honestly sampling has always intrigued me ever since i got really into Kanye. Kanye sometimes samples the most obscure songs and turns them into bops, he innovates instead of playing it safe, a true example of a sampling god
"innovates instead of playing it safe" is a really good way to put it bc its basically difference between good and bad sampling. sampling is an artistic tool that works when used by artists and not big studio execs looking to make quick profit
Hey Jarred! Very interesting video! I agree! But do you think if a not famous singer or producer uses a sample or an interpolation in their new track is it going to be that much successful? I mean they promote it kinda lot so it's somehow a combination of fame/promotion/funding and the sample/interpolation itself the key to the success that probably a new artist won't have the advantage of all that! What do you think? 🙂
I didn't realize this guy had a voice

Daft Punk's Discovery album is mostly sampled, but still a masterpiece.
Sampling is rather hit or miss for making one or more somg memorable.

Yee that's what the art of sampling was for. You always was picky w the samples cuz the sample choice said just as much as any lyrics you laid on it
True
Agreed and I do the same. Like with Eminem’s song Stan.
Depends though. For example Take On Me is still far more relevant and better than any song that has sampled it through the years. Feel This Moment is a particular bad example.
not very many people go back and check it out unless the sample was already a hit song
Creativity needs time.
Creativity just comes.
50's to 80's were a pit of creativity
Anything past the 80s has lost creativity. Lack of instruments/limitation?
@@darthseagraves it‘s the exact opposite i think, limitations make creative
@@darthseagraves Stop looking where you wont find innovation try looking at less popular music
Its still creative but its sad we always sample shit, we need new stuff
The 90s too
It’s cool that everybody gets paid when sampling, but I appreciate the effort into creating a brand new sound so much more.
I agree.
What Mariah Carey does with sampling is genius to me. She really is excellent at choosing her samples! Janet Jackson does it really good too
They sit down and produce themselves?
Yup@@pradeeppandey1978! Mariah is a songwriter and writes most, if not all of her own songs. Janet also has a huge hand in the making of her music, idk if she does it all herself, but she still has a huge hand in what the songs are

Plagiarism on the other hand is blatantly stealing other artists work and trying to pass it off as your own.
I'm all for inspiration and influence. Not theft.
You cannot steal ideas because ideas aren't scarce.
@@worldhello1234 I wouldn't argue that, I agree 100% on that. However, you can steal someone's "thunder" lol.
But you're correct, ideas aren't scarce but the accent is literally an individualized element that cannot be stolen-its impossible. It's Copyright law and Rights to license all that jazz that make the industry a very dog-eat-dog place. It can be a safe spot and/or a detrimental place for music.
This is the first time I heard this man speak
Bro I love hip hop, house music, and techo ofcourse I love sampling
"Good artists borrow, great artists steal"
Literally Peggy
I love you and your musical awareness. You’re also gorgeous
Thanks! I’ve learned so much from you!
Thank you Carlos!
Great video bro! I learned something new today
Yoooo finally we get to hear you speak
"Sometimes you don't have to reinvent the wheel, the wheel is fine!!"
Perpetual masturbation mentality.
This video may be short, but I learned a lot. Thanks for the info!
Speaking of why… why is the first time I’m hearing this man’s voice and I’m in love ?
Please read me bed time stories lol your voice is sooo smooth and soothing.
Bro can actually make good content its crazy
this video needs to blow up! J man linking the generation together with this one!
Very informative, good stuff!
Idk why I never thought to click on your vids before. This is my first time hearing your voice.
😮 he talks. I've only ever seen him sit and sometimes point. He's got a nice voice
I was thinking about that today and no song is original today. 😮
If you can do an original Song out of a sample then It's original
Plenty of songs had samples, used interpolations and were covers in previous decades also, especially hip hop songs
This was super informative and helpful. Wish you focused more on long form informative content rather than shorts!
Ooooh, first time hearing your voice!
I've been looking at so many UA-cam shorts that this is the first time I've heard you speak!
Goddamn, I didn’t think your voice would be this deep
So many popular songs. I see so many original music online that just not popular or as popular
Prince predicted it
bros voice is so calm
Can't believe people are so ok with the degradation of music culture.
I'm sorry sidenote, you have an incredible voice! Have you ever done voice overs for like books or something, if not have you thought about it??
wow i’ve never heard u talk before
u have a really nice voice
Sampling itself can be great. Even full on covers can be great. But it often isn't great when it's done as a shortcut, which increasingly is the case now.
(Also, "Superfreak" is a better song than "U Can't Touch This," and I'm tired of pretending it's not).
I don’t listen to the radio much nowadays, and when I do, it’s mostly those “best hits of the 80s, 90s and todays” channels, because the pop and Top 40 are constantly playing back-to-back Taylor Swift and the hip-hop and R&B stations, all of their music is just my music from the 90s, but bad. They even sample stuff that was already sampled, like Mariah Carey’s Fantasy and Mario Winan’s I Don’t Wanna Know
Bro thanks to all the samples you are famous in UA-cam!
Finally someone explained this to me and with such clarity! Make more educational videos. Cheers!
More often than not the songs have a single sample playing all throughout the song with maybe some modern drums and thats it, and it’s so annOYING
thank you music guru
Such a good voice ❤
Its so weird hearing this dudes voice after all this time lol
Clicking on this was my first time hearing your voice and OMG bro! I almost 🥜’d ‼️
Witchyo silky smooth, buttery, Barry White face ahhh voice 😩
Pause tho‼️
As someone who creates music, I really do want a second chance for a melody or a rhythm. I am not against that. It would be nice if I get some compensation for the work I do.
QuestLove also spoke about that - using a sample - is a Cheat code for the your brain because you are more inclined to like this new melody .
As for me I am down for a new melody a new approach..
Honestly sampling has always intrigued me ever since i got really into Kanye. Kanye sometimes samples the most obscure songs and turns them into bops, he innovates instead of playing it safe, a true example of a sampling god
"innovates instead of playing it safe" is a really good way to put it bc its basically difference between good and bad sampling. sampling is an artistic tool that works when used by artists and not big studio execs looking to make quick profit
Hey Jarred! Very interesting video! I agree! But do you think if a not famous singer or producer uses a sample or an interpolation in their new track is it going to be that much successful? I mean they promote it kinda lot so it's somehow a combination of fame/promotion/funding and the sample/interpolation itself the key to the success that probably a new artist won't have the advantage of all that! What do you think? 🙂
