[nextchapterrecords]

[K4r1m]

nice use from cinematic

[RICO1UK]

Big tune!

[IcyShroomZ]

how did kanye even get to know this? T__T

the music he listens to and the one he makes himself are so different, but yet both cool

[cannoir]

yah well he listens to a lot of carribean and west african music. its no secret. Maybe you should try it.what kanye serves y'all is a diluted ( not bad ) version of various african music . it is just better suited for western palates.You'd be suprise how many people are a shamed to listen to the many african musical genres. they will not blast it in their car but they will hide the songz in their ipods.

[PWNtheHILL]

That's the first time I've ever heard a Beatles song be turned into a reggae song, but I've got to say.. It was amazing! This version is much better than the original.

[MechelleMelledee]

@PWNtheHILL Hello. It is a wonderful cover version isn't it. if you liked this, then you should search for "Louisa Marks All my lovin". it's another Beatles song cover version, and i really like it. you may like it too. :0)

[LaliOneLove1]

Fantastic Julian :D Bless!

[ska1bmw]

LaddieCres you have made my day and for that i wholeheartedly thank you........Peace

[SuperDayv]

Wow, who would have thought that a beat to a Jay-Z song came from a sample of a Beatles cover. Wild stuff!

[MastaEss]

@SuperDayv

Actually music has always been about one man stealing the ideas of another. It's not music unless its stolen!

"A good musician doesn't borrow, he steals" - Sir Paul McCartney

[TiminSE]

@MastaEss

makes sense, he gets a piece of this sample... This is one of my fave Beatles' joints

[IchhabkeinPlan123]

sounds like xmas-time!

[KoSeBreNervira]

kanye west really got an ear for music.

[evvia]

@KoSeBreNervira ,,,what??

[snorlax140]

@KoSeBreNervira Cuz he's not creative enough to make his own beats and instrumentals without sampling XD

[drorctipus]

@snorlax140 you obviously dont know how rap works. it is based off of sampling. all rappers do it, most just do it poorly or use the same shit that other people have sampled into the ground. this song for example doesnt sound like it would make a rap song, but sure enough this is how Jay-Z ends most of his shows...and its damn good.

[snorlax140]

@drorctipus Lol so tell me this, when people like kanye and jay z try to make a real beat with a piano, why does it sound so mediocre? Kanye doesn't know art

[nafeNafen]

@snorlax140 it's different man. it's the transition to a different genre that defines the art. art isn't all invention and creation; a lot of times it's innovation.

i cant believe how i stumbled on this though. the people who did the tiles in my house gave me the Trojan Tribute: Beatles Covers Collection and this was the first track on the first CD. i was like HOLY SHIT ENCORE

[snorlax140]

@nafeNafen I'm not sure man, for example, if i went to france and took the leonardo da vinci painting, and took it home, and scratched her mouth off and gave her a frown instead of a smile, that's not making my own art, that's kinda stealing.

[nafeNafen]

@snorlax140

at that point it comes down to the varying definition of art. To some, that may be art; to others, thats utter bullshit. if it ain't your cup of tea, don't listen to it.

for example, I could go to france, took the mona lisa, and painted on the head of Cthulhu, and 99% of the world would criticize me and have me jailed, while the H.P Lovecraft fans worship my feet.

[snorlax140]

@nafeNafen For one thing the Cthulhu is a mythical creature and bares no resemblence to mona lisa, therefore it wouldn't be a knockoff, more like a spoof. So there was no point you're putting out there :(

[nafeNafen]

@snorlax140 there's no point in arguing what you believe is art or not. all i'm saying is it's an opinion. i personally believe that when Animal Collective can sample the grateful dead and make a trippy ass song like "What Would I Want, Sky"; or when DJ Premier can sample a protestant preacher and make "Nas is Like"; or when Royksopp can sample the shortest guitar riff and make a chill song like "Eple" - it's fuckin art.

[nafeNafen]

@snorlax140 or when Gorillaz sample the friggen National Lebanese Orchestra for Arabic-Oriental Music to make "White Flag," or when Passion Pit samples the irish singer Mary o'hara to make Sleepyhead, or when Dilla, pete, premier, da beatminerz, nujabes sample ahmad jamal to make dozens of piano beats; i dont know, the transitions over genres are damned beautiful. of course i love original music. but i love all music, from Hendrix to Nas. whats the point of hatin orgasms in your ears

[snorlax140]

@nafeNafen It's basically hearing the same thing, so how is it an "orgasm" to my ears? Using somebody else's art and making it my own isn't art, it's being uncreative, i'm not saying i don't like samples, i'm just saying there's no point in showing any credit into the sampler, 110% of credit goes to the one who created the song with his/her imagination.

[nafeNafen]

@snorlax140 or, like many producer's do, you can take someone else's creation, imagine it as something different, flip it, and create it to fit your own imagination. Tell me how 9th Wonder's "Shots" sounds anything like Teddy Pendergrass' "Turn Off the Lights"

[snorlax140]

@nafeNafen I understand what you're saying, but it's still the same music, :( listen to jay z "young forever" now at school I'm talking about Alphaville when i mention Forever young, and idiots think i'm talking about Jay Z, that's not art, that's just being too damn lazy to make your own beats!!!!

[nafeNafen]

@snorlax140 there is a lot of wackness in the industry with that spews from a lot of producers. but you cant say the legends of hip hop were too lazy to make their own beats when hip hop basically spawned from sampling. lately, there has been a trend in hip hop of producing through electronic means and synth which i feel like is complete shit. DJing has always been defined by one's ability to flip, spin, scratch, n mix and match samples. I mean watch the DMC World DJ championships. crazy shit!

[snorlax140]

@nafeNafen In that case then hip hop isn't really creativity if you think about it if it all is nothing but mixed songs that other people have made, there's unnecessary sampling too, listen to "eazy e-i wanna fuck you" that was an unnecessary sample of bootsy collins

[nafeNafen]

@snorlax140 i mean unnecessary sampling is a pain in the ass, and lame knock offs usually sound like pieces of shit.

but with any musical instrument, those who handle and play it correctly can definitely produce creative pieces. samplers ARE musical instruments.

you can argue that covers arent creative either since the lyrics are exactly the same as the original. are you going to say john holt is not creative for making a cover of the beatles track?

[snorlax140]

@nafeNafen not real instruments though :( because they're used to use other instruments, when you say covers you mean by album covers?

[nafeNafen]

@snorlax140 nah i mean song covers. Check out The Beatles - I Will.

and no, its an actual instrument my dude. your idea of a "musical instrument" is abnormally narrow minded

[snorlax140]

@nafeNafen No it is not, "narrow minded" you don't see me trying to force my brain into thinking Biz Markie's version of "Vapors" is different than James Brown, when he just used his song, nothing different, it's the same instrumentsts man, just listen, even if it is a sample it's still hte same person's song,

[1965angel1965]

@KoSeBreNervira What has John Holts music got to do with Kanye West? You can't even compare the two because John Holt will always have a timeless talent whereas Kanye is here and now, will he survive the passage of time, if he matures and starts to take his singing more eriously maybe but he will never be in the John Holt class

[CikaKure33]

@1965angel1965...i have to correct myself. im feeling stupid for sayin this on youtube to ppl i dont even know but....i've found out hip hop has been cheatin on me. i loved it w all my heart and i came to find out after 10yrs that this bitch is fake. im prob the dumbest mfk alive man. i knew some of my fav songs are "sampled" but all of em???????? 99% of the sht i listen to is stolen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fuck....now what do i do?

[nafeNafen]

@CikaKure33 it isnt stolen man.....lol. the fuck these niggaz dont know what sampling is.

you listen to rap, from Kanye West to Pete Rock?

great, there are samples.

you listen to electronica, from Daft Punk to Royksopp?

great, there are samples.

you listen to rock/alternative, from Animal Collective to Radiohead?

great, there are samples.

"Samplers" are instruments too. Wiki them. They work similar to Synthesizers.

[XxKgeatxX]

@KoSeBreNervira He'ss A Sample Genuis

[iam01]

crazy thing is this is a beatles song....

[karanparekh929]

@KoSeBreNervira I fucking Love you dude

[whiskymarko]

@KoSeBreNervira

you mean jay z?

or does kanye have a sample of this too?

[JohnMakesABeat]

@whiskymarko kanye produced "Encore"

[whiskymarko]

@JohnMakesABeat

that explains everything:D

[Westasaurus]

Great song. Listening to '1000 volt's now!! :)

[nrobnas43]

I Will is from the Beatle's White Album. Funny, Obla Di Obla Da is a song about Desmond Dekker. I think Paul was a big reggae/ska fan. And it's nice to hear this version of it. I just found out about John Holt last week.
