[superbock91]

It makes me think about a Jamiroquai song : "Just Another Story"!!! The Bassline is almost the same!

[lovrenault]

@superbock91 and it's exactly Air's La Femme d'Argent bassline though ;)

[SteveSpent]

@lovrenault the sample for La Femme has been widley credited to Runnin' by Edwin Starr off the same album.

[roscoegino]

a nick bag of funk

[kabol69]

[87RepoMan]

[roscoegino]

some white honky 'bout to get hisself killed

[Effedup]

As sampled by Tone Lōc in the song "Lōc'ed After Dark", also DMX on the song "Crime Story", and I'm sure countless others :)

I love the internet...

[lt1fan94]

@Effedup dmx's play on this was actually pretty tight. i had the master vinyl, recorded the instrumental. put it on my mp3 and i ride out. throw this on at dusk, with your just your riding lights on. and creep.......

[DJChrisLoot]

@Effedup

I got 2 more... "High Rollers" by Ice T and "Nickel Bag Of Funk" by Digable Planets...

[tylersfs]

From 0:07 - 0:42 is quite possibly the pimpiest, funkiest, smoothest & chillest piece of work in music history. Period!

[huisrukker]

sooo smooth..

[roscoegino]

damn. my hat just grew a furry brim.

[JGCapone1]

dmx......crime story

[TodaysRapSucks]

@JGCapone1 suck a dick, this is all ICE-T. Pull your shoes up, perp.

[JGCapone1]

@TodaysRapSucks LOL!!! Get A LIfe Fam And Grow Up

[RikJamezBich]

Yeah Edwin Star is badazz. I didn't even know of him until youtube. Guess technology can be funky sometimes.

[BLakNoSe777777]

they made some grimey shit with this sample its a brazilian rap group

[BLakNoSe777777]

check out Racionais - "diario de um detento"

[mattiwata206]

i wish this could play everytime i made an entrance

[andrefreakincreator]

@mattiwata206 ahahha! great comment

[RawXIII]

@mattiwata206 hell yeah, u know?! i made a dope ass ringtone to that intro b4... also 'The Breakthrough', check that one out...i think its I. Hayes, slick ass shit..

[Ghostwine]

Does anyone have bass tabs to this? I can't find them anywhere, and I'm not very good at finding notes by ear yet.

[OoohWaaayy]

this is sampled in prodigy - mac 10 handle and this dope shit!!!!!

[oldschoolbx1970]

Prior to Ice T's High Rollers,I first heard this joint when I was just only three years old. I wish black radio in NYC would quit being so damn half ass and start playing something like this and less of the bullshit that they play now. Don't get me wrong. I like listening to John Legend,Raheem De Vaughn,Jaheem,Alicia Keys,Jennifer Hudson,Melanie Fiona,Fantasia,Ne-Yo,and some of the other R n B artists that I hear only on Kiss(98.7 FM) and WBLS(107.5 FM),too.

[girluninterupted98]

this is some pimp shit right here....

[oldschoolbx1970]

@girluninterupted98 That's right.

[starysamochod]

ice-t and prodigy also use this sample..this beat is hip hop without the gramofones :-)

[pimpin4ever305]

[iam01]

Ice T High Rollers... high high high.......

[beebhoy]

I'm looking an underground rap group who sampled this recently but can't find out who??

[thedict]

@beebhoy I think it's used in Mac 10 Handle by Prodigy, but it could just be a similar bass line.

[GodsS0N1]

This is what plays when I enter places in slow motion

[catchfree84]

[67mrblack]

simpiy dope!...this is a cold track!

[Dom20nik]

THIS IS GANGSTA !!!!!!!!!!!!

[betaultragroove]

everybody here have been forgotten Digeable Planets- Nickel Bags

from de album - Reachin' (a new refutation of time and space), 1993 the last years of the golden age Hip-Hop, am i wrong???

[jimmygggg]

the "golden age of hip-hop" was just an echo of the golden age of soul.

[Dj3000]

Not quite. The golden age is remembered for its remarkable lyricism (before the gangster nonsense). Then come the samples from funk, jazz etc...

[theconfusion105]

@betaultragroove I know i'm very late but I have not forgotten about DP. They're my favorite hip hop group. This was sampled for "The art of easing" on 1994's Blowout Comb.

[capnstaben]

Mobb Deep Mac 10 handle sampled this

[PhillyStress]

You mean prodigy sampled this...

[iam01]

Ice T Baby... High High High.... Rollers!

[ColtnWhite]

"Now you comin with me!!!!BOOM!!!!!" DMX destroyed this! Hip Hop

True Story: I knew the back-up band that toured with Edwin in the early 70's, they all said they couldn't believe how fucking stupid he was when they got to really know him.

[pookellypoo]

Lol how mean. Oh well...atleast the song is decent to listen to.

[passjay]

how many rappers have sampled this!! soo dope!!

[oleold]

Now thats pimpin soul for you this is a banger I love the 70's music the best era for music ever the 80's had more hits but the music was too cheesy to me the 70's music was funky and soulful the orchestra the wah wah the fender rhoses the funky bass lines of the fender jazz bass and the fender p bass.

[hiphopkid2]

the 70s had plenty of cheesy music as well the 80s has some very good music honestly each era offers good music and also offers corney cheesy music as well u just got to know ur stuff

[divaliceous1]

Yess Ice-T sample this song

DMX- Crime Story

[foufou2707]

[bugstrut]

Dilated Peoples sampled this back in the day, for one of their songs, but it was just an underground thing, as they couldn't afford to pay for the sample, and put it on their album.

[grantlonsdale]
