This song is so soulful. Oldies, can never get enough of them.

[FlyboiIzzzie]

@bigblack1003 The real instrumental is by J.Dilla called Love It Here. So soulful

[disDoC53]

Nobody touches Dilla's beat.. Love It Here

[DemolionTheShadow]

[stevieplez2]

The old Campbell s soup commercial MMMMMM HUMMMMMM GOOD, must have gotten that from this song Smokey tune..... yes who agree?

[justsid]

I listened this the whole day. And I might just listen to it all day tomorrow. I have never encountered a song that made me smile so much.

[stevieplez2]

[OldSchoolRules96]

Senior year in high school and basement parties!

[HierBeats]

I literally just gave this song 40-50 plays...in the past 2 1/2 hours.

[chopnscrew1]

J Dilla Flipped It First My Point Being You Can Never Mess With A Classic Lol Sledgren Car Service Was Gangsta Af Tho

[770MASTER]

[Digthereal]

[GblasterY]

[KnokomistKnight]

I totally respect dilla, but truthfully CAR SERVICE brought me here !!!!

[sincere1]

CAR SERVICE? How about J Dilla's & Elzhi's "Love it Here"??!!! that was the dopest flip on this song!

[sylvia1585]

[young21fame23]

bow wow sell my soul < best version

until i sample this

[dwilkerson20]

If this aint SOUL, i dont know what is man. Classic Smokey...

[stevieplez2]

@dwilkerson20 Soul is a strong positive feeling.... as defines in the dictionary

[OFFICIALARTMUSIC]

My god, all of these comments about dilla and wiz khalifa AND NOT A SINGLE COMMENT about the amazing James Jamerson bassline. Just listen to that.

[kingpa1]

both tracks are dope but i think dillas have more creativity to it. with the chopping



[bigblack1003]

who else is here because of Car Service?

[LuvMeSomeHipHop]

@bigblack1003 that and bow wow's version, ha

[bookbossyyahurk]

J Dilla or Sledgren all that matters is that OG is in my swisher so my blunt taste flavor ¯\_(ツ)_/¯...

[OzArTMusic]

J. Dilla Forever! Ya'll..The Greatest...

[awsullyful]

they should never any hip- hoppers touvh any smokey music they ruin it i know smokey like for money sake but please dont touch

[UUUPPPCCC]

@awsullyful that didn't make any goddamn sense

[704QCsfinest]

RIP dilla, but sledgerens was better but dilla is dilla so u wanna be hip hop heads are gonna say ohter wise

[thangQanime]

@704QCsfinest who the fuck is sledgren and where is his sample then since you want to talk big?

[704QCsfinest]

@thangQanime look up car service by currensy and wiz khalifa

[thangQanime]

@704QCsfinest Ohhh lol so that's the guy who did that sample. Yeah I've known about Car Service for like a year and ironically I agree with you, his is better to me than the Dilla version.

[NellStalgya]

@704QCsfinest dilla kille dit,how he chopped the vocals,is insane

[sticxphrenic]

I Mean It Sounds Like Some Kind Of String, Like A Violin But I Can't Be Sure...

[renaissanceman165]

@sticxphrenic There are several orchestral instruments used throughout this track. If you're talking specifically about the backing instruments on the hook "...Your love is MMM", I hear primarily a string section most prominently. However, all throughout the song I hear muted trumpets, flutes, and a baritone sax. The high strings add the sweetening. Of course we also hear the mean rhythm section. Hope this helps! Ciao!!!

[renaissanceman165]

@sticxphrenic To add to my other post to you, just to clarify. The high strings I'm referring to are violins, but I also hear the lower strings, the cellos. The string section usually consisting of violins on top, followed by violas, then cellos, and usually the contrabass, or upright bass. In the case of a rhythm section with electric bass, it is not always necessary, unless there is a featured section in the song for just the entire string section. Ciao!!!

[sticxphrenic]

Does Anybody Know What Instrument Was Used To Record The Main Melody When Smokey Says, "Your Love Is Mmmmm GOOD..." Like While He's Singing The Word "Good" What Instrument Is Playing?

[nakhsa18]

damn i wish i never found this song!

i feel so fkn lonely now

[JuzaPIMPnMOB]

@nakhsa18 yooo i felt the SAME fckin way!!!

[nakhsa18]

@JuzaPIMPnMOB smokeys voice dude its powerful.

[sgsrepresenta]

i sampled this also...go to my profile and watch da vid named "even tho" let me kno wut u think...

-kaflame

[MrReasonTv]

Car Service bitchhhh

[TheKingOfKings69XxX]

1 person didnt feel better off

[thangQanime]

Man I wish there was a kid Michael Jackson cover of this song. It suited his voice perfectly.

[ramorris100]

In my opinion this one of the Miracles best. Should have received more air play back in 1967...

[thangQanime]

Smokey Robinson- Much Better Off=

1.Jay Dilla- Love it here

2.Cyne- Electric Blue

3.Wiz Khalifa and Currensy- Car Service

Trust me...just do it.

[FleetDaFuFu]

The First thing that comes to mind is Jetttssssssssssss Foooooooooool *throws up pinky and a thumb*

[mileswilliams777]

My nigga this where they got that Car Service beat

Smokey is one sick ass nigga those

[dq303]

dam this song rides

[tigerdrew92]

i love all three for different reasons

[tigerdrew92]

I love all three

[proudbluestaterful]

thank u so much i turned 60 yesterday and finding these songs espec this one is a great birthday treat

[TheRealNickMarino]

Curren$y- Ventilation Also Sampled This

[kill780]

@TheRealNickMarino no he didnt

[TheRealNickMarino]

@kill780 Listen to the opening of both songs The Voice is def. smokeys

[blakduke11]

Curren$y and Wiz Khalifa-Car Service Sample appears at: 0:41

[thamidwestmob]

It truly, truly hurts my soul that wiz khalifa and currensy's song is even mentioned in the same breath as J Dilla's. There is no soul in that beat; no feeling whatsoever. I'm beginning to fear for the future of hip hop...there are definitely some guys out there that can shoulder the load, but they're getting increasingly harder to find. Do people actually believe in 10 years we will look back at some of these songs and say "man, I miss those days..."

[realbrightmike]

no offfense but j-dilla's version is too subtle.sledgrens has that energy,especially in the beginning when the beat drops.it just gets me hype to get fly and hit the city.JETS OVER EVERYTHING-EVEN TAYLOR GANG!

[sbdon71]

@realbrightmike all he did was loop it, dilla fo life

[Levicobx]

Awesome music !! Let's all go back in that time machine to the 70s when music was special ~~~

[Antman1290]

Curren$y bought me here not gay khalifa

[LRGHQ1]

I'm not the one to decide, but Dilla's version feels more hip hop than Sledgren's...

[KwentEss]

@LRGHQ1 Waaaaaaaaay more Hip-Hop....especially when you throw Elzhi's rhymes over Dilla's track.

[FonziFree]

@LRGHQ1 can you send a link to Sledgren's Version of this flip

[AEVERONE]

hip hop is hip hop just keep it alive "R.I.P Jay Dee Dub"

[ahmadyk23]

Who gives a fuck if J Dilla (RIP) did it first, just because he's dead and Elzhi's song was more lyrical than Wiz's, doesn't make the beat better. Sledgren did it better the Dilla and thats real shit. TGOD

[WarithHajj91]

@ahmadyk23 that may be true, but its because the technology is more advanced

[erika2012vsu]

@ahmadyk23 Thumbs down comment all the way the fuck down! If Dilla were alive Wiz wouldn't be as big. And in my opinion Car Service was Wiz's only good song.

[dopescale]

@ahmadyk23 You like sledgrens version better? Damn, man I love Dillas version. Much more difficult chops, more swing, feel good joint. i like Car Service too and it def knocks but I gotta give it to Dilla on this one.

[sbdon71]

@ahmadyk23 taylor gang or live. dilla all day

[mizzjuicy38]

HEY TYRELL!!! U FORGOT ONE...FOR THE WALKERS AND STEPPERS!!

[shutterdust]

1:16-1:32

All the Dilla heads know what I'm saying!

[chillysardine]

Grimey and Silky at the same time... Chilly Cold tune

[EIGGER85]

DILLA DILLA DILLA DILLA DILLA DILLA DILLA DILLA DILLA

[fattymac21]

It seems like people do their hardest to make you hate Dilla. He's great, we get it. Stop trying to put other artists down with your dicksuckery.

[XxXShaggsXxX]

hah, whoever produced that curren$y track is trippin, the only legit sample ever done to this song was by dilla

[TheFinalPage]

@XxXShaggsXxX lool dickrider.

[Ghost1X3]

J Dilla used the song first so check out dilla

[TheFinalPage]

@Ghost1X3 U NEED TO TELL ME THE NAME OF THE SONG!!! IM DYING TO HEAR IT

[joe69798]

@TheFinalPage i no wiz got this n him n curenssy song car service its a nice song

[Ghost1X3]

@TheFinalPage its called love it here by jdilla

[tavian15]

Khalifa and Curren$y..nice

[Jpat5991]

The chorus nd that bass part is what makes his song!

[Lemonaderr]

Clear the runway babyyyyy!!

[theXenigma2000]

fucka car service

[MickSwaggger]

To anyone wondering who made the "Car Service" beat, it was Sledgren. He's one of Wiz's in-house producers for the Taylor Gang.

[TheDarryl1963]

One of the best crooners of all time! Smokey Robinson!

[killaclip]

Rip 2 J.Dilla smh :(

[guidado23]

J Dilla did it first

[JuneBlazeMusic]

@guidado23 Jay Dee did it best

[williamg2552]

@guidado23 NO...THE MIRACLES DID IT FIRST.

[khasm13]

love it here....

wow!

[williamg2552]

SMOKEY ROBINSON, BOBBY ROGERS, MARV TARPLIN, CLAUDETTE ROBINSON, RONNIE WHITE and PETE MOORE. THE MIRACLES RULE !!!

[TheRealAntt]

My nigga Van Solo ate this beat, search "Van Solo, Super Good"

[dayoungchief]

Car service is a nice song but Dilla murdered this,

[KiDAllEY52]

Smokey Robinson

[williamg2552]

This is not a rap or hip hop song. This is THE MIRACLES. They deserve credit for recording this song in the FIRST PLACE. I don't care who "sampled" it.

[KIDBreezyTV]

@williamg2552 instead of complaing. you should be happy that hip hop is leading people to go & listen to the song it was sampled from . win win situation .

[KIDBreezyTV]

@williamg2552 instead of complaining. you should be happy that hip hop is leading people to go & listen to the song it was sampled from . win win situation . everyone get vredit

[freewillie26]

@williamg2552 youre right they deserve the most credit for performing it and making it sound so beautiful also whoever composed the masterpiece. while i agree most rap is garbage (and im a 30 year old rap fan) it is refreshing when someone takes such a beautiful song and formats it in a way that people from a different genre can enjoy. leading them to look for the original. therefore exposing the youth to the real good music that inspired their favorite artist.

[knuckles6008]

Spittaaaaaaa!!!!!!!

[esk8r62]

@QuoteNotes16 for shur man sledren aint got shit on dilla! check out my flip of this track on my page called much better off!!

[QuoteNotes16]

@esk8r62 word up man that beat is even sicker than the khalifa 1

[Lawnoo]

@esk8r62 THANK YOU. Thought nobody would mention him.

And the most credit goes to Smokey, without a doubt. CruiseControl.

[Centralislip631]
