I remember watching Dead Presidents as a kid, and I instantly fell in love with the song. Now 17, turning 18 next month. Boy has time flown by by byyyyy.
Songs that I know sampled this song: 2Wicky - Hooverphonic, Hood Took Me Under - Compton's Most Wanted, Biggie Smalls - Warning. You know a song has a good beat when it's constantly being sampled.
@TuffLuck777 War sucks. I will live those memories forever, but I can deal with them. I often think of the families and loved ones of those who are gone. They suffer also. I am just a thankful survivor. Nam '72
@Charma34 War is a part of life -- life sucks! Since man has been on this planet, there's been war or fighting. I never think about the families that lost love ones, or the ones I've put down. I only try to remember the kid that went over, and really try to know the man that come back. So there are no survivors of war, cause that kid that went over -- didn't come back! Vietnam 69...
Yeah The Wu loops the same beat many times just flips em, RZA taught all the Wu Disciples producers their skills although they developed their own styles you can still hear the similarities. In my opinion at least.
Is this the song that was playing when they find Chris Tuckers' character dead sitting in a chair watching Soul Train? If not what song was that? That was a really moving scene in 'Dead Presidents'
@pucksterz12 Tired of being alone - Al Green... it was actually him performing it live on soul train, u can see it on the TV before they show Chris eyes glazed over... good scene. This song plays at the very end of the movie, once u realize homeboys on his to the mfin joint
I know it doesn't matter for me to say this cause I see that other have tried as well...BUT...Isaac did not write this song. It was composed by Burt Bacharach, with lyrics by Hal David and ORIGINALLY recorded by Dionne Warwick in 1964. Isaac didn't record his version until five years later.
lol... one of the dopest songs ever: back then gangsta-was-understated, you didn't need to be flashing your gunz or your RENTED cars & RENTED hoes in your videos.
On another note the drumbeat-drop-in was sampeled by Biggie on Ready to Die, I believe.
..but isaac hayes and robert diggs flipped this so nicely that ain't no one gonna remember who the fuck is burt backawhutevadafuck his name is 500 years from now..sheeit they don't remember him now!! they gonna remember isaac hayes and robert diggs forever though,everytime they hear this song played...just like how the white man flipped africa...flip from a flipper and God smiles!! so flip on the next man and hit 'em with 16 shots and all ya got / going to war with the melting pot!!!
@scruffyrunkin Very sad...your either quite young or just.......You are the reason i don't leave comments. Mr. Hayes DID NOT WRITE THIS SONG. It was written by Burt Bacarach (I know I spelled that wrong). He did a great deal of his work with Dion Warwick. Hayes did flip it nice but he did not write this.How do you know where your going if you dont know where you been? Good day sir.
such a wiked piece of music it does make me think of wu tang clan you can't go to sleep and mf doom he got a song sample musical flavas at the start they just use the best bits Im not really sure what to think about samples of all stuff I think godfather don explains it pretty good in a little documentary he mentioned repeting a melody with small changes andsuch can leav a lot to the imagination and all this and that forgot?
