"A Divine Image" - David Axelrod

[YOFACE22]

things ain't ever gonna change... FUCK EM'!!!!!

[Bluexhox]

Epicness That Causes Eargasms At Every Listen. Simply Timeless....

[hoody232]

Hip-Hop samples:

Kool G Rap - Take 'Em To War

Lord Finesse - Check Me Out Baby Pah

Strickly Roots - Brothers Die'n Every Day

[FaceColey]

kool g rap sampled this offa 4,5,6

[jordan10103]

Hes not really hip hop before hip hop because hip hop was amongst the black before it became popular

[strickpropane]

if it's sampled then it's appreciated by someone rather than being lost in obscurity 30 yrs ago . yay!!!!

[akShGstyle]

/watch?v=TG4FA2mTdwA :D

[pngn48]

It also takes more time and more of a thought process, as well as more skill to produce original sounds to get original music. I.e. make your own shit

[pngn48]

@jaydoesfridge though true, a lot of modern "musicians" they just blatanly jack different shit from different classics and call it their own... I'm looking at you kanye west...

[BrannuSunyata]

David Axelrod was hip-hop before hip-hop was hip-hop. His mastery at taking traditional compositions that go back in time and modernizing them with jazz, funk and rock is ... beyond genius. Ahead of his time.

[Habib24202]

Search my Videos for "Nas Ether MidiMarc Remix" to see how Midi Marc used it

[zigman45]

dis shit has been sampled a lot n its still aint popular, with that said imma go ahead n sample dis too

[eyesea]

"if retaliation comes then yo fuck it it just comes"

[Abruzzese25]

Lord Finesse - Brainstorm / P.S.K. (No Gimmicks) (Remix)

[Lifesucksdie123]

the late and super great earl palmer on drums.

rip

[Madhandz]

David Axelrod is a true musical genius. And the sample has been used no end and can you blame them??? It's perfect for a dark hip hop track.

[rahooligan]

Thousands of rappers/hip-hop artists have used dozens of Axelrod's works. Not one of them is half as talented as Axelrod himself

[drabh1]

@rahooligan so why would they sample his stuff then if for one they don't appreciate it or have an ear for quality

[rahooligan]

@drabh1 They definitely have an ear for quality.. I don't doubt that. They also have the knack for altering the original music to suit hip-hop audiences. What I'm saying is that it takes real, true talent to create music like that from scratch. All it takes to sample it well is, like you said, an ear for quality - there isn't much actual skill required.

[jaydoesfridge]

@rahooligan Sampling and blending sounds is an artform in itselt, Many could probably sample this and get a semi-good result, but to actually come out with something that is well balanced, well constructed and catches a certain feeling is probably harder than you think.. That being said I most definitely agree that to compose this type of music from scratch would demand genius. But to beatmake gems also demands genius!

[MentalCarnival]

@jaydoesfridge i disagree. make your own fucking music lol

[HeartThrobDante]

JADAKISS - CARRY A CASKET...BLACK MOON - ONE, TWO...PAPOOSE - TAKE EM TO WAR...AND ABOUT 55 OTHER RAPPERS LOL

[phoen99rising]

@HeartThrobDante Papoose's song was a remake of Kool G Rap's song.

[OnlinePopstar]

@thothplay Hip Hop is Music. You're Ignorant.

[OnlinePopstar]

Hip Hop is Music. You're Ignorant.

[GantonMostWanted]

Black Moon - One-Two (02:37)

[nizxbit]

[KYS1978]

Godfather don used this record for seeds of hate....so many hiphop producers used this record. i could think of so many songs that have used this record. There are so many parts of this that can be used!! Take em too war by g rap. 2:08 is Brainstorm by lord finesse , o.c and krs one....i could keep on going. Despite the sampling, this is just an erie outrageous record.!!

(Surrender!) Nah, I'm goin out with a bang nigga

FUCK PATAKI, I gotta do my thang nigga

Forty-four mag, bustin into action

Brains left in particles, fragments and fractions

Grimm, the money stacker, heat packer

I'm lurkin, I'm waitin, attackin like a linebacker

[cycleRPM]

rudebwoybutler ...the track is Ed Rush - West Side Sax...

[sleepybag]

they aren't mutually exclusive.. hip hop is music as well but this is not in the genre hip hop, you were partially correct

[guiraymond]

"Cruelty has a human heart,

And jealousy a human face;

Terror the human form divine,

And secrecy the human dress.

The human dress is forged iron,

The human form a fiery forge,

The human face a furnace seal'd,

The human heart its hungry gorge."

[guiraymond]

"Cruauté porte un coeur humain,

Et jalousie un visage humain,

Terreur a la divine forme humaine,

Hypocrisie le vetement humain.

Le vetement humain est de fer forgé;

La forme humaine une forge de feu,

Le visage humain une fournaise close,

Le coeur humain est sa gorge affamée."

[rudebwoybutler]

Ed Rush samples this track on an early No U Turn records release, can't remember the name of the track, but yes it has been "remixed" with Jungle already

[Gmancrap]

Needs to be remixed with jungle.

[MrScissorhandz]

Don't get it twisted. I listen to every kind of music out there. And I was introduced to David Axelrod thru hip hop. Axelrod is a genius. But If it wasn't for hip hop, this song probably wouldn't get as much feedback. So fuck off Mr. English major!

[MrScissorhandz]

Classic Hip Hop! Rock on...

[CoolieBlack]

and "1, 2" by black moon, Axelrod is a freakin genius or something.

[arlt3]
