I was playing chrono trigger on my ps3 and was like... WHAT? I know some rapper sampled this. I just couldn't put my finger on it! wow. well, being a true chrono trigger/ cross fan, i'm sampling it too lol.
@yousuffahimuddin oh god. stupid hipster kids that listen to Dom Kennedy and Blu and Kendrick Lamar but dont know shit about hip-hop. Black Superman is an Above the Law song. There's also a 2pac one. But you wouldn't know anything about that.
First of all, I don't like Dom Kennedy, I just like this song because of the sample. Secondly, the phrasing sucks. It's poorly written. The whole song is pretty poorly written.
"But you wouldn't know anything about that". Who's the hipster again?
@yousuffahimuddin Every nigga (and if u white u still a nigga cause u ignorant as fuck) wit a laptop think he a music exec..how u question dom kennedys writing skills??? this cat does hiphop justice...gtf outa heaaaaa
@yousuffahimuddin "I don't like this guy, I only listen to his songs ironically. But you probably wouldn't understand that, it's an UNDERGROUND notion."
The piano riff is sampled from SNES RPG Chrono Trigger (1995), the song is titled Secret of the Forest. You don't hear the piano until midway through.
Im the only person to have the OFFICIAL instrumental to this song, its on my channel ;)
