People can say what they want about sampling but I discovered great funk, R&B and soul artists because of them. I would always look at the sample and try to find it and most often than not fall in love with the original track.
@NickD25 Bless, Nick D I can't begin to tell you haow much I agree. Hip Hop saved the old school. This great artist in particular owes much to hip hop. Most of the artist who sample great music end up making great music for themselves. You told the whole truth Nick! Praises
I love this 1 and Smooth's......different era's and different types of music, Smooth was hip hop and Patrice is r&b soul but both sound good..... I LOVE IT!!!!!!
Shut the HELL up.. I didn't know this was sampled. I guess cause I was younger and grew up when "Smooth's" song was popular. I'm about to pull this album out and play it in it's entirety. I love Patrice.
No one could compose those sweet smooth ballads like Patrice, She is truly a extremely talented composer,musician and singer who had a unique sound of her own. A true original who didn't sound like any one else. Something that is almost non existant among todays popular singers.
Patrice Rushen is one of the most sampled artist in Hip-Hop and R&B. Many arists have sampled her music Will Smith (Men in Black Theme), R. Kelly (Born in The '90s), Junior Mafia (I Need You Tonight), Smooth (Strawberries). They've used "Forget Me Nots", "You Remind Me" and "Where There Is Love" for their songs.
Q-tip is underrated as a producer. But real beat junkies know he turned the babies on to Patrice Rushen and that Minni Riperton sample on "Lyrics to Go".
@ElectAPromQueen Of course..gotta love Q-tip and what you said was so true..he is soo underrated..Lyrics to Go is still my joint to this day:)..I also think that Patrice Rushen is underrated also
This is one of many favorites I have from this talented "little lady", the groove is so smooth and mellow, with a beautiful melody, along with her sultry vocals, this is music, quality 80's music that is, no doubt about it!!
Thanks for posting this. I own a battered copy of Straight From the Heart and this particular track reminds me of a lovely afternoon spent reminiscing about blokes, plotting our future holiday and just revelling in the company of the kind of good friend who really understands you with my best mate at the time, in Whitley Bay, North East England. We just kept pulling the arm back and repeating the whole album!
