lmao, every sample every crap rapper has sampled only two rap joints i see with "Musicians" is king tim and thats the joint, the other cuts are just cliche beats,and breaks. dont get me wrong all of em are good no great cuts. but every wanna be rapper is gonna snag this Mojo magazine and rip it into thier Akai mpc's lol

Finess said:

hell yeah...

"Money oh money
Got to get my hands on some"

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Thanks for the listing!

I thought it was gonna have rap from that same era, but it's like alot of breaks I have already. EXCEPT FOR flaming ember, "gotta get away" -- I LOVE THAT BUT DO NOT OWN IT. I totally haven't seen their vinyl in my travels.

Thanks again,
