  • i dont find anything wrong with sampling. as long as you do a good job with it then its fine to me. if i was an artist, i would take it as a compliment that someone wants to sample my music, it shows that youre good at what you do. i never heard the original until i found out about this. they both have meaning so therefore i like both :)

  • love this tuneeeeeee :)

  • Comment removed

  • acoolchick Shut Up!

    i remember toto africa, i remeber this to, i dont mind either :)

  • Shut up?

  • I know there are people out there, who are whining, "Why did she ruin a song?". She didn't. Depending on who does what, I'm usually fine with samples within reason. It's fine, it had a real meaning and it is a good song that people like. You should save your complaints for a time when someone like Lady GaGa samples a good song like "Africa". Though it would take too much time to explain on Youtube, the real reason for the complaints is something psychological that goes on with everyone.

  • Wow, sound complicated and interesting as well. ;)

    I'm not whining, I just find sampling tasteless. I'm not only attacking JoJo for this sampling I'm attacking sampling in general. Well of course people like some of those songs and credit the musicians but the reason why the song is good is probably basicly the sampling part of the song. Without the Africa-part what would this song be? Okay it's good that most people in here know that the real song is Africa by Toto but for them who don't know..

  • You are totally right. I can't tell you how many times I listened a song that I really liked and ended up a little disappointed when I found out it was sampled. I like my artists to do their own stuff, like write the songs, help produce the track, and playing an instrument really earns points with me. Out of love and respect for music and music artists(which I have a lot of) I just go with it no matter how retarded music may start to sound, though I agree with everything you have said.

  • Hopefully it won't be too long before music reinvents itself again and we can stop hearing robots(in reference to autotune) on the radio, you know what I mean?

  • Yeah, I fully agree with you.

    But I actually think that we will see more real music in the future, than we see today. For instance do "producers" and musicians from the playing bands get more credited for their works on tunes nowadays than they got five years ago.

  • .. so, JoJo are the artist of this song and she gets the credit for this. And as if this is not enough almost all music today is produced by producers and a lot of musicians that we don't even know. What I'm trying to say is that I'm sad about the development in music. And a lot of the todays singers' voices are even made better with a computer! Maybe I'm whining after all but we should really appreciate the real musicians - them who make the music themselves and feel the music and not..

  • .. them who just steal music from the great songs of the past and get famous because of that. Then rather play the song as it was played before like for instance Kate Ryan did with "Ella elle l'a". But sampling is in my book like stealing even though most people ask before they "steal" and even pay for it. I really hope you can see my point - that the world should have more real musicians than it has today who make their music themselves. Otherwise they're not musicians.

  • Of some reason I really hate the phenomenon of sampling.

    Okay, as I can see some find this song awesome - I just don't like the idea of ruining a great song and a classic.

  • toto -africa

  • Actually this is not a remake of Africa, they just used the chorus in the beginning of the song. i love this song of jojo's. She's an amazing singer.
