In 1977 i remember DJ's in the Bronx & Harlem Put this Record on and Everyone would lose their Minds, esp because the Dj"s would Scratch and loop the First 4 bars repeatedly which gave birth to the Loop in Today's Hip Hop. Although this was produced in Britain in 1968 I def heard this althrough my child hood in NYC baby...
thanks for the story! I grew up on Sedgwick and 197th, only a few miles from the birthplace of rap. Who remembers the Rap Attack on WBLS Friday night's!
Rap ? Hiphop ? This music comes from my youth back in the seventies ... From a time when music had no labels ... Years afterwards people wanted to "label" all kinds of music ... We didn't. We just danced the nights away on this kind of music. And I still do at the age of 68 by now ...
I have been listening to hip hop since 1978, have heard this break and sample over and over again and never knew where it was form til now LMAO! The whole joint is funky as hell!
This is definitely an instrumental take of Otis Redding/Carla Thomas' of "Tramp." Unlike the Lowell Fulsom original, that version features a swipe of the Temptations hit "I Know I'm Losing You," which is also present on this recording.
You sir are correct - the U.K. based Pama Label released this in 1968 - based on the Otis Redding/Carla Thomas version (Atlantic) from 1966. For legal reasons, the name title is 'The Champ' so as not to get sued by Atlantic/Cotillion/Fulson.
There are so many breaks out of this from Marley Marl, Original Concept to Main Source & Large Professor, KRS-1, Son of Bazerk, and the list goes on. There are so many variations of breaks and loops that originated from this classic cut. I remember growing up B-Boying in Chicago and dj's would cut this up back in the day. This is up there with Apache, Funky Drummer, Amen Brother, I know you got Soul and a bunch of others, peace !!!!
in answer: it has been sampled 19 times. Alan Hawkshaw who wrote the keys section also wrote the Grange Hill theme tune (officially called 'Chicken Man' ) it was also used for ITVs Give us a clue.
Grew up in the Boogie down remember all the pioneer DJ's made this one of the top break beat joints. Big shouts to DJ'S Kool Herc, GrandMaster Flash, Grand Wizard Theodore, DJ Charlie Chase for rippin up the school yards back in the day, plugging up to the street light is how we did it back then, thanks for the memories!
Listened to this as a child in the late 60s on my Uncle's Dual record player searched and searched for the track as I didn't know the name. Then I heard a track of Alam Hawkshaw play while watching TV series the Royal which is great for praying fantastic tracks. Did some searching and Voilà I found it. The great sound of the Hammond Organ, just like Jimmy Smith!
I remember seeing a pre Def Jam DMX rhyme over this break at a show in Y.O for ten minutes straight. So many classic hip hop songs came from this song. Salutes!
After hearing this dancing into the nearest furniture and getting badly bruised, I remember spending about four hours in 1993 trying to squeeze that underwater organ sound out of a sh1tty Rhodes VK1000 keyboard with slight success. What is that sound???... Farfisa though a Leslie though a phaser pedal??? Glorious dirty and funky!
Groove Me By Guy and The Groove by Jazzy jeff and the Fresh Prince brought me here! I always here this sample in every hip hop song from back then, I'm so glad to finally find it. I love music!
Amazing music like this is what happens when tracks from groups like The Meters spread throughout the world and other musician-connoisseurs pick up on it, flip it, and make it their own!
Amazing... the original label! JJ licensed the master to Cotillion, which was a subsidiary of Atlantic. A hip-hop classic, and a great quality transfer. Thank you.
Dis Was The SHIT BACK IN DA SOUTH BRONX EARLY 80'S!! EVEN THOUGH THE RECORD WAS 12 YRS OLD> BLOCK PARTY'S (JAM) PATTERSON PROJECT PS18, PS1, 156TH ST. COURTLAND AVE. OH MAN FLASHBACK>>40S & ALOTS OF PHILLIES BLUNT!!! ONE LOVE!!!
Thank you so much for posting! This tune rocks hard, and good job from youtube predictive autoplay algorithm, which brought this up right after 'Cramp Your Style' by 'All The People featuring Robert Moore'.
This track has got to be one of the most influential records of all time, certainly for soulies. Can't remember when I heard it, possibly the Chambers in Rochdale or the Masque.Or maybe even radio Luxembourg.
Otis Redding & Carla Thomas did a song called "Tramp", which was the basis for the Salt 'N Pepa sample. No relation to the Mohawks; it was Carla calling out Otis as an undesirable suitor, and Otis defending his character.
DullTorpor Sounds pretty exact to me. At least a lot closer than most of the stuff that Led Zeppelin got nailed for for ripping off. Listen to the horns and the bass line.
+blueslove61 Maybe I need to listen a few more times, but the resemblance doesn't leap out at me. As far as Led Zeppelin goes, they appropriated others' music quite a few times, including lyrics. Saying this as a fan of their music.
Here are the places The Champ are sampled: Onyx - "Slam" Maestro Fresh-Wes - "Let Your Backbone Slide" (Symphony in Effect) Redman - "Da Funk" (Whut? Thee Album) Eric B. & Rakim - "Eric B. Is President" (Paid in Full) KRS-One - "Step Into a World" (I Got Next) EPMD - "The Big Payback" (Unfinished Business) Cut Chemist & DJ Shadow - "Mohawks Champ" (Brainfreeze) Erick Sermon - "Stay Real" (No Pressure) Guy - "Groove Me"
One of the most sampled records used in Hip-Hop and electronica (dance music) history. Groovy and funky and the main beat is infectious!
Duh... No s**t sherlock. Why do you think we're all here listening to this f**ked up tune?

It's so amazing how these funk classics got sampled into some of the best hip hop tunes we hear especially during the 80s and 90's era.
Exactly, Ms. Patty!
I live for the funk, I'll die for the funk
and it was used in the game Glover
It's happened before, is happening, will continue to happen 👽

The legendary Alan Hawkshaw at the keyboard. Is there no end to this man's talent?

Definitely. Mr Magic's Rap Attack
I wish there were footage of that. I would have love to be there
I do. Listened to it in Branford, CT and made many mixtapes:)
The Hammond organ at it's pure best, always loved this pure sound
Yup
An intersection of Mod & Old School Hip Hop, perfect for a Mod like me who also loved Hip Hop back in the 80's.
Played by Alan Hawkshaw, the same guy who wrote the theme tunes to English TV shows Grange Hill, Countdown and Grandstand

Fantastic! Have not heard this for many years: Love it! A family friend was in this band.
RIP Alan Hawkshaw, keyboard genius from Leeds UK
Where has this song been all my life? My beautiful beloved son got me here.
Right up there with James Brown, and pretty much responsible for countless Hip Hop and Rap tracks.
Life as a DJ without this ...is a waste of time !!!! TUNE !
One of my all-time faves! Love it!

Where would hip hop be without these guys. Thank you pioneers of funk!
They would have sampled the amen break another couple of thousand times instead
The sound or "vox" that is at the very beginning of the song and all through out is used all the time in modern hip-hop/trap production

“I’m not saying I’m number one
Uh, sorry I lied....I’m number one two three four and five”. - KRS One
Ihateohioandmoving to florida top five bars of all time right there. Say I’m wrong. KRS GOD level M.C.
this is the greatest hip hop sample of them all, enough rappers sampled this
masterpiece so much you'll know the breakbeat anytime they play this.
Listen to Otis Redding's Tramp (1967). This is very similar to that.
Some one was biting
This was based on Otis reddings version of Tramp
Love it always for 40 years..... Feels like home.
That's my Dad Alan Hawkshaw on Hammond :)
Hi Kirsty :)

Dan Westlake news at 10 ..
Are you for real? Haha

Otis Redding and Carla Thomas Tramp was before The Mohawks The Champ. Still a good song
The composer of this breakbeat classic also did the Grange Hill theme tune, "I only want to help you Rowland".
Frank Ocean's Nikes brought me here!
Nathan Wells Yeah.

He used the vocals at 0:00 and put a delay on it

One of the most sampled 45s ever. Awesome!

I dont know why the song title is champ, its obviously a remake of otis redding's song, tramp, and they even say tramp during chorus
we were breakin like mofos to this!! thanks
