[weeeeeeeduh]

proably the best one nobody really knows The Game, Ya Boy, and Cyserro - Fire In Ya Eyes (Samples Michael Jackson - With A Childs Heart)

[MzHipHop1]

Alotta people use to ask me why i like Michael Jackson so much. And i'd reply, "because Michael can't be replicated nor duplicated, and he has contributed a lot to hip hop, which so happens to be my favorite music genre. Then they'd laugh at my response.

So many Hip Hop artists sample his music. He's changed rap, maybe not the hip hop culture, but he's changed the music for the better. A true inspiration.

To all audiences.

Now that he's dead, people finnaly realize what i mean.

[ForgottenSoul700]

[tdog1281]

crazy tht 1 man change music from rnb to hip-hop and even music video games ! he did compose sonic 3 right?

[zeekmizaka]

the beat LLcool j used is the same beat jadakiss used is swagin

[IllVilleProductions]

I was just gonna say that

[NewWaveOldSchool]

I think if someone samples a song...the artist who it is sampled from should get credit on the track listing...that would really screw Kanye West I bet...

[luder2006]

they always do u idiot

[Th4Pr1m3K1n6]

@NewWaveOldSchool

I so agree with you. They really should starting putting the name of the person they sampled in credits. Because 95% of Hip-hop is sampled and I'd just love to know where the songs immediately came from right away. Half of these songs I was like "they sampled that?"

[BIGST0N3]

I was expecting you to put De La Soul - Breakadawn in this video that sampled I Can't Help It! But instead you think of a dumbass rapper?? Wow!

[sketchley80]

I don't call "sampling" being influenced by the King of Pop - I much prefer listening to the original of all these samples...one more reason why I find it hard to really get into rap music...

only a select few songs and artists do I actually enjoy in the rap world...hip hop it depends...there are a few more...but the music is so not original...

make up new melodies...and leave the integrity of MJ's tunes alone!

For example...PYT is WAY better than Kanye West's "song".

Long live MJ!

[Fashion4life]

I know what you mean, but I think they use his music cuz they really appreciate his music and they're actually doing a good thing imo cuz they're introducing a new generation his great music.. Even if it's just a sample ,they're still doing it.. I kinda agree with you that they need 2 do new melodies, but a lot of artists are doing that at the moment.. I'm a big hip hip fan, and even the king of pop enjoyed some hip hop tunes like Hard knock life... LONG LIVE the king <3

[ALMIGHTYIGZ]

I Aint never been a king.. r.i.p mj

[fizzwify]

biggie smalls also sampled "I want you back" to "one more chance".........I don't think MJ really knows how much people he touch in the music world....RIP MJ muahhhzzz.

[Jessenator]

Check out the "Man in the Mirror" mixtape by Rhymefest. It's all MJ samples and has a lot of great artists on it (i.e. Talib Kweli, Wale, Ghostface). Best tape of 2007 IMO.

[hotnix5]

[jetdatboy]

[Mj4Eternity58]

@jetdatboy EXACTLY!!!!!!

[neqquah]

"Breakadawn" by De La Soul was better than "Baby" by Fabolous

[someguyNAMEDCAM]

trae sample lady in my life to make swang

[RUS42TY]

[love5959]

(ugh, i can't stand kanye! he's a prime example of the OPPOSITE of mj. all about being a flashy star..its not about his brand of ART or the music)

[love5959]

damn... this is crazzyy.

it's a shame people weren't giving him the credit he deserved when he was ALIVE.

[iiPodGurL18]

He was the king tho, so what do you expect? lol .

[igotskillz49]

premier best producer ever to live

[Robanzee]

[stevenarsenal]

I tried to look for that song its all about the benjamins and all i can find is the other version

[zacky89]

How can you forget LIBERIAN GIRL Michael Jackson used by

Tupac Shakur Letter to my unborn child.

[schnulli79]

[R4wku5]

yea notorious big and jay-z are crap...

get real dude.

[catchfree84]

[R4wku5]

Does nobody understand sarcasme anymore?

[catchfree84]

i responded to the other guy...so your the cunt

[JakJakJaky123]

hey and lil romeo....

[paolotherapper]

oh cool shit man! nice! MJ was really worldwide man! peace!

[stat363]

i thought of a ill beat 4 human nature that

i bet no one thought of before

[qbanricanplaya1]

then make it and let me hear it wen its done

[Nikelea]

To be honest I thought the Nas sample was pretty obvious. Even though it's in a loop you can hear MJ singing in the back ground and no one sings like MJ. Plus you can clearly hear the music at one point. Not to mention the SWV song a year or two earlier. Of course I've been hearing this since I was a kid in 94 but I knew that was MJ even then. I don't know, maybe it was just me.

Still...Nice video

[awakeskes88]

yoo this vid is sooo tight !! mj truely a legend ... i knew most ov these songs n yeah sik samples ... but still ... samples they are cant be compared to the originals RIP MJ

[Jblaze1991]

yo theres a whole bunch more.like

q-tip-move.he sampled dat off mj

[Gdigga456]

man i never new nas sampled a beat from mj. michael was truly great

[lorrainemonique]

Okay, am I the only one who can hear that Beyonce' sampled "I Can't Help It" by MJ in the song "DeJa Vu". Listen closely to the music in the part when she sings "Boy I try to catch myself but I'm outta control. The sexiness is so appealing I can't let it go"

[Nikelea]

I can hear what you're saying. She even kind of sings like him, does a run MJ would do. Maybe they changed it up enough so that it's not technically a sample but more like a style thing. It was supposd to be a throw back song anyway. But she does that a lot, in Crazy in love she uses some of Prince's lyrics/melodies.

[JakJakJaky123]

well does beyonce rap tho???

[seanyj04]

i think she can but she chooses to it not that often.

[carinishouseofiron]

I didn't catch half of these song samples until I watched this video! Michael Jackson was truly a talented artist

[lennardnijenhuis]

2 days posted after the death of MJ :(

RIP

[KTHARLEM125TH]

yo pplz add me and subb n check out my music n rate

[rassclaat23]

yo the nas one is sneakyyyyy lmao

[anairda220]

yeah im surprised, a lot of ppl dont catch onto the nas one but i think that song is obvious too. the one i did not catch onto until about a week ago was the good life and pyt.

[La1Lan]

Great job... The only one I never caught on to was Nas. But all others have always been so obvious...<MJ 4 life!

[jordiekjo]

This was so well done...congrats...will be a viral video in weeks I'm sure...

[1Proverbs31woman]

thanks for this man..you are the best.!! i love you!!

[blackthought34]

Thanks, well done

Didnt even dawn on me that Michael was sampled in the Kanye and Biggie songs.

[ElectricWojo]

All rap songs with MJ are the best rap songs.

[jordan8704]

thanks this was great. i didnt know fabolous baby sampled MJ

[jetdatboy]

everyone samples Mj, even Jay z n Pac

[carinishouseofiron]

This is an amazing list. I had no idea some of these songs sampled the King of Pop. Great tribute!

[telisakeys]

Damn R.I.P. Michael Jackson. Your music WILL live on FOREVER!!.... Nice video too man.
