  • Shit , didn't know some a hiphop producer sampled this . And I'm a hiphop head . Must be out of touch.

    Anyway I've had this song for many years. It kinda changed my life about 15 years ago when I first heard it . I was like the woman in the song , tippin around uptown . 'When will you ever get enough?' That line got to me , had to change up my lifestyle . No more snow and sippin over priced drinks and regretting .

    You're doing it all wrong . That ain't the way to make love.

  • @cheebazoe maybe it's because you listen to big tymers and not real shit like MF DOOM and Madlib

  • my slugs pierce armor, he better be armed, ready, and prepared for fierce drama

  • Check out Oll Zen's beat on this sample. DOPE. But ypou wont find it on youtube. Googleit!

  • Eric G used it for Actual Proof - Coast part II

  • it was curtis jackson who made the beat. not doom or madvillain

    ahahahah

  • DOOM

  • "dont make me pound his tin crown face in"

  • Doom samples this so perfectly. takes the best parts of the whole song and mixes them perfectly

  • @IcyFresSH madlib does not DOOM

  • Comment removed

  • @MrMister296 You're right. Doom had no part in the production of Madvillainy at all.

  • @IcyFresSH Madlib is crazy with the beats and DOOM with the lyrics. what a duo

  • @IcyFresSH my man madlib made the beat! doom killed it though!

  • @IcyFresSH Actually madlib sampled it perfectly.

  • @WeHateSkating Was just about to say that ha. Madlib is that dude.

  • @IcyFresSH madlib made the beat

    madlib + super villian = madvillian

  • @IcyFresSH I think Madlib made this beat.

  • @IcyFresSH madlib produces not doom

  • @IcyFresSH madlib...maaaaaddddddllllliiii­iibbbbbbb

  • Comment removed

  • @IcyFresSH u mean madlib sampled this so perfectly

  • @IcyFresSH MADLIB sampled this ffuuuuuck

  • @IcyFresSH You mean Madlib samples this...

  • @IcyFresSH Agreed - but props where props is due, it's Madlib who produced the track.

  • i really don't care if Metalface sampled this.

  • Youve been dippin around the town with some fancy clown...

  • where i can find the lyrics ?

    what is he saying till fancy clown ?

    the first 6 verses ... ? thanks

  • @katomania I think it's:

    "I hear you in the background

    Whenever I phone

    Tellin' your brother

    To say you're gone

    You've been dipping around the town

    With some fancy clown"

    Not 100% sure on those last two lines.

  • @NCHammer326 wooing not "with some"

  • @NCHammer326 THAAAAANKS

  • @katomania No prob, though mskcouric corrected one part: replace "with some" with "wooing".

  • @NCHammer326 thats actually word for word... beautiful eh

  • This is why i love hip hop, it opens you up to a world of different music, which ends up being WAAY better than the music you started off listening to....

  • @LooseFit88 Hell yeah, man! Shame samples are becoming less common in hip hop these days.

  • @BradWest96 its cause ppl find it not original..iunno ppl think when ppl sample too much it weakens the beat..

  • Madvillain sampled this abso-fucking-lutely perfectly.

  • The sampler's reps then said that they were within their rights to NOT pay the original creator, because they had "used" not "taken" a small "8 bar" section and turned it into a "completely different creation". THEY JUST REPEATED THE SAMPLE FOR 8 MINUTES!. How about putting up the same piece WITHOUT THE SAMPLE, and see how well it holds up, if the sample was so insignificant...THE SAMPLER (THIEF) LOST THE CASE, BTW!! Don't be so sure you know what's going on! I had to testify, so I know!!

  • Don't be so sure that ZZ, or Lamont was paid for the sample. I have several friends that have recorded for major record companies, with major hits, and they have had songs sampled without their permission; even when they had not been clearance for the sample to be used. They then did not have their names listed for the sample or the performance of their production, singing, voice, etc....AND THEN, their lawyers, when they were being sued for it, attempted to belittle the original creation.

  • FANCY CLOWN.

  • oh shit its Clevland Brown form Family Guy

  • Credit where credit is due, and acknowledging the source, and hopefully monetary compensation would be in order also...Yes, it does take great ears to recognize great music, and even hear nuances...I have no beef with hip hop artists finding new points of view.

  • I listen to it...that's how I know that it exists...I think most of us can listen to a piece of music and recognize that it is great...The real magic is creating something from the ether, not grabbing someone else's creation, and claiming credit for creating it...and i have created tons of material of all genres...jazz, r&b, hip hop, country, classical, pop, rap, i just do mine without sampling someone else's work, or when i do, I give full credit to where I gleaned it!

  • I've had friends music sampled without them being CREDITED as having performed and even sung on, much less having been financially compensated for their creations. Some of the hip-hop artists have even gone as far as to take credit for sampled music, calling it "MY MUSIC". Kanye has even been quoted, bragging about being at the top of the music industry without any musical knowledge or being able to play an instrument or being able to sing!

  • spcial herbs

    

  • Madlib chopped this one up and made it his and Doom's song. By itself,it's still a great song though.

    RIP ZZ Hill

  • He Better be ready to get stomped in the ground !!

  • Does anyone know the lyrics to this?

  • half the people who came to this video didn't even know who zz hill was before lib flipped this

  • He looks like Jeron Wilson. lol

  • I am soooooo happy that Madlib sampled this.

    Nothing wrong with sampling when you create your own unique version like Madlib did on Madvillain. This man's singing was KEY for that song.

    Added so much soul to that intense, crazy album. Madlib and Doom, what a perfect chemistry.

    I love soulful music like this, and Bobby Womack among others.

  • What a fantastic sample

  • @mjwalk5 This is not a sample...This is the actual song, written and produced by Lamont Dozier (of Holland-Dozier-Holland fame)...Lamont is a musical genius, as you can tell by the number of songs that he has had stolen, uh sampled by rappers and hip-hop guys (I refuse to call them artists)...I LOVE HOW THE GROOVE SHIFTS AT 3:03...similar to how Lamonts shifts it on his own recording of "All Cried Out" on his Black Bach album...check it out

  • Comment removed

  • @hollidayevery you refuse to call them artist?, take a 15sec sample and make a beat. bet you cant AND there is a diff between HIP-HOP and RAP big difference but im guessing you dont care only listen to one genre of music i listen to everything from jazz to UK dubstep to soul to hip hop and everything in between you should show respect to the people who create good music and not be so ignorant. switch it up, dont eat the same peice of cake day in and day out tierd ass flavor gets played out

  • @hollidayevery I know this is the actual song. Im saying this was a great choice of mad lib to sample. And sampling isnt stealing. its taking something old and making something new out of it. Why wouldnt u have respect for hip hop ARTISTS who appreciate the same music as u?

  • @hollidayevery actually, it is a sample. if a section was used in a later song (which it was), then it is a sample. Madlib is as much of a genius as Lamont Dozier (if not more). Same goes for MF DOOM. And I'm pretty sure they paid for usage of the SAMPLE, so nothing was ever stolen...POW!!!

  • whooooo! Madvillain >>

  • Comment removed

  • Viktor Vaughn and Madlib killed this

  • @brapkid55 wow you actually got it right, people seem to think its doom on the track but it's his alter ego viktor vaughn rapping about doom stealing his girl

  • @hiphoplivs Exactly in the beginning he clearly says, "It's Viktor!"

  • @MrCombine yup, and he also says" it's up to you if you want a dude who wears a mask all day" we all know viktor doesnt have the mask so it must be doom!

  • @hiphoplivs word bond

  • Put ya sista on the phone!

  • "you wasn't sorry when you sucked him off in the hallway"

  • @Pomaori "have it your way, raw..no foreplay, thats you if you want a dude who wear masks all day"

  • @KnawledgeBorn Love the sample on Fancy Clown, but this song itself is beautiful, man. Madlib didn't just rip this beat because he knew he could mash it up. He likely did it because he liked the song.

  • you some FACY CLOWN!!!

  • @stevesk8r It's Fancy clown. And ZZ Hill died in 1984.. You know nothing about music at all.

  • @LeatherWhistle
