Honestly, the list goes in this order as to who sampled this song the best. Eminem (No One's Iller Than Me), J. Cole (Dreams), and Kanye West (Drive Slow)
The sax solo at the end of Billy Joel's "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" also draws from the part around 0:32. Not just rap music borrowing from this song.
For the record, I like "Drive Slow" best out of the hip hop samples, but I have no problem with anyone who's into Pac's or Eminem's tracks more. We're allowed to like different stuff.
you all relize it would take a much bigger discription box to say every song that has sampled this.. the ones your saying are just the ones that didnt tweak it as much but there are thousands of songs that used just 1 or 2 bars from this..
Was there anything Bob James, Deodato and Dave Matthews WASN'T arranging back in those CTI days??? Another great post from one of my favorite jazz labels.
yall need to stop talking about drake and kanye sampling. this song is good by itself, and for you idiots out there 2pac was the first to sample this song. tired of u lil niggas talking about drake this lil wayne that. errything they doing 2pac did alot betta. Shorty wanna be a thug. do ur research lil dumbasses, and again this song is great by itself.
ppl need to start appreciating the fact that rapper who sample keep these musicians and these songs alive, i would have never heard of hank crawford and many others if it wasn't for kanye
@empire562 find part of a record that you like, record it into either a sampler [like an E-mu SP12 or AKAI MPC] or a digital audio workstation [Fruityloops, Reason, Logic, ProTools} and then cut pieces out & loop them and/or rearrange them how you want. I the sample has drums, you may be done, otherwise you'll have to sample a breakbeat to get drums under your melody. You kinda have to do it to get it though, so find someone in your area who makes beats and see if they'll let you watch them work
@TTOPSIE well boi-1da did use it for drakes miss me because if you look at the production credits of Thank Me Later, it says that they sampled the hank crawford song and if you listen at lik 1:41, the sample is there. just listen. it's there.
@gccards26 well it's the only sample in miss me. lol it's even in the hook when it gets mellow. the whole miss me beat is based off this sample, i think boi-1da did a great job with it.
