i thought that was the isley's "footsteps" sampled on this track or is this a another version.

heybaby said:

"It Was A Good Day (Remix)" samples Staple Singers "Let's Do It Again".

"It Was A Good Day" samples Isley Brothers "Footsteps In The Dark".

I prefer the latter.

CinisterCee said:

hmm i didn't know there where two. i never heard the "lets do it again" version...

Adisa said:

yeah, sorry about that my bad

I like the Jungle Brothers - I'll House you (using the "Can you Feel it" shout from the jacksons live album.

Was that Randy or Jackie who said it? I think it was randy since he has a verse in the song.

Paul's Boutique has alot of great samples....It's to bad destinys child used edge of seventeen (one of my favorite songs) on that stupid booty song.

The worse use of a samlpe is tribes use of walk on the wild side. A great song should be sampled with care.

Another bad use of a sample is will smith using patrice rushens "forget me nots" on men in black.

I ain't got no money, I ain?t like those other guys you hang around.

I'm also not particularly fond of the artist formerly known as the fresh prince's sampling of "I wish" on Wild Wild west. Using such a great song for such a lame promotion of a lame movie is blasphemous

lilgish said:

I totally agree. I like Tribe's first album but that one sample bugs me.


I'd also like to know which Jackson that was yellin "Can You Feel It!" because Original Concept (Concept & Rick Rubin) sampled that same hollar in 1986.

CinisterCee said:

That "can you feel it" yell is off the Jackson's "Live". Guess I always thought it was Tito for some reason or some guy warming up the show.

Mary J. Blige - "Love Is All We Need" (from Rick James's "Moonchild")

Marlon C feat. D'Angelo - "Talk S#!t 2 Ya" (from Curtis Mayfield's "Mother's Son")

Kanye West - "School Spirit" (from Aretha Franklin's "Spirit In The Dark")

Kanye West - "Through The Wire" (from Chaka Khan's "Through The Fire")

Ice Cube - "It Was A Good Day (Remix)" (from The Staple Singers's "Let's Do It Again" and Parliament's "Sir Nose d'Voidoffunk")

Cam'Ron - "Diamonds and Pearls" (from Prince & The NPG's "Diamonds and Pearls")

Cam'Ron - "The Top" (from the theme song to Gimme A Break!)

Was it the radio edit that he used the Isley Bros. "Footsteps in the Dark"?

UptownDeb said:

Yes. That was the album version.

Also,

Mariah Carey feat. Xscape and Da Brat - "Always Be My Baby" (from The S.O.S. Band's "Tell Me If You Still Care")

okaypimpn said:

He's makin' "Wild Child" sound like...



...a munchkin!


Oh wait a minute, there were no black munchkins.

ya'll crazy. i never really liked that song i could never get why it was like so much by people.

Beastie Boys' "Paul's Boutique" is full of clever little samples.

And let's not forget about Big Audio Dynamite.

RipHer2Shreds said:

the video version used the SS sample

meltwithu said:

Then there must have been two videos, because I've only seen the video of the original version.

I forgot a pretty clever one:
Music Sounds Better With You - Stardust (Chaka Khan's Fate)

Loooove that loop in there.

RipHer2Shreds said:

On that note:

Modjo "Lady (Hear Me Tonite)" - Chic "Soup For One"

CinisterCee said:

Huh. I like that Chic song, don't know the perpetratin' sampler

RipHer2Shreds said:

Well, unblock me from AIM and maybe I'll send it

I'm sure you've heard this song, even if you don't know who Modjo is.

How about "DMSR" in Love Sign??

I've always been a sucker for 'Thank You Falettinme Be Mice Elf Again' in 'Rhythm Nation'.

Simply Red ~ "Sunshine" (Hall & Oats "I can't go for that")
Madonna ~ "Erotica" (Kool & The Gang's "Jungle Boogie")

Cinister Cee "That Cinister Appearance" - Evelyn 'Champagne' King "Love Come Down"

one of the worst uses of a sample...

though she has a great voice and has some good songs...

that song by Angie Stone, "No More Rain" or something that uses the ENTIRE Gladys Knight sample, "Neither One of Us"
...for that matter, if you're going to use a sample BE CREATIVE...either use a common sample in unique way (i.e. Dre's The Chronic using Parliament/Clinton samples) or use some obscure stuff or jazzy stuff (ATCQ or Gang Starr)

---ok...i'm done

Humpty Dance--Digital Underground (sample--Let's Play House by Parliament)

Mc Hammer --Pumps in the Bumps (sample--Atomic Dog by George Clinton) that song makes me want to hump the air. lol
