I danced to this song in Junior High School in a performance with some friends! I love the song when I was exposed to it at that age so when I heard J. Cole using it took me back! Good times.
Wow this song really opens my eyes about how close Afro Cuban music is to its African roots....essentially unchanged...at all because when I looked for this sample I just KNEW i was looking for a 1950s Cuban Son Montuno song
Ahh I'm so disappointed! I don't remember hearing a really solid Caribbean / West African sound since Wyclef made The Carnival. I got all excited about J Cole, hoping he'd found someone to make original beats with that sound for him, like "fuck yeah here comes some new/good stuff!!". Anyway maybe he'll popularize the sound for a minute, that'd be cool too I guess.
Who CARES if it was J. Cole who led anyone to this song? That's why sampling is awesome; it introduces you to new stuff. Get over yourself, seriously.
lol.. I J-Cole's on Fuse.. Then my mom told me that she knows this song. I was like.. wdf? Since she doesn't listen to rap. Then she told me that it's from our Country.. Guinea. I'm Guinea-American, lol. I feel so cool.. I can kinda understand what he's singing. It's in Malinka.
wow, what a great song. def not a fan of the mindless, idiotic and forgettable music of J.Cole but I'm glad the producer picked this song for the sample. I am now exposed to a timeless and classy song as this.
@JuraBL Haters gonna hate :) If you mind me asking then get the fuck off my channel and listen to this beautiful song on some J.Cole fan channel you ignorant pricks! By the way, that J.Cole crap of a song is a lyrical and musical disgrace for this Guinean masterpiece which is a genuine LOVE song instead of that fally boast'n'brag rap-crap!
@JuraBL Apparently you're the HATER because you have ZERO likes on your comment. Just look at the top comment. But you're right, the original is always gonna be better, however in some cases, a remix is always a good refreshment. Peace.
beat the pussy up thats the hook right there !!!
