Hip Hop and Samples..
 

I guess this is a game or something. Please post a hiphop song and the sample(s) used in it. I always get excited when I hear something and think "O **** that in "insert song here".

So I was at work yesterday listening to Gnarls Barkley Pandora station and I hear this:

Moondog - Bird's Lament


and I immediately get a smile, because Mazzi used this kick ass melody in a song I found recently.

Mazi (SOUL Purpose) - Keep Movin


Here's the instrumental for anyone interested:

Mr Scruff - Get A Move On

Miles Davis's Pharoah's Dance off of the infamous Bitches Brew.

A.M. Breakups sampled a part of the intro on this Billy Woods track Sour Grapes.

Escala - Palladio


sampled by

Jedi Mind Tricks - On The Eve Of War

Three Dog Night - An Old Fashioned Love Song


sampled by

Grieves - Irreversible (ft Mr Lif)

sampled by GZA - Shadowboxin



and



sampled by Wu Tang - Tearz



rza is a genius and a great portal to old and obscure soul music.

Good stuff, Frown.
Nice JWB.. I didn't know either of those samples, and I agree about the RZA. Not a fan of his raps but his production is on point.

I hope some other people get involved this is great.

The Alan Parsons Project - Eye in the Sky


sampled in:

Immortal Technique - Eyes in the Sky

Leon Haywood - I Want a Do Something Freaky To You


sampled by:

Dr. Dre - Ain't Nothing But A G Thang (ft Snoop)

Dat bass line..

Lee Dorsey - Get Out My Life Woman


Sampled by:

Biz Markie - Just A Friend


AND

Cypress Hill - Hits From the Bong

Ah this thread reminds me of a radio segment I had called "Dropping Science" and I would basically do the same thing. Play a song then follow it up with the samples that were used in the song.









I feel like that is the third song this past week that I have heard use turn the beat around.

Sample:

Aretha Franklin - One Step Ahead [1965]


Favorite Flips:

Mos Def - Ms. Fat Booty [1999]


Phil Ade - Used To Be [2010]
