This tune from Gap Magione is definitely a great inspiration. I'd listen to this track over and over. Dilla or Fliying Lotus made great track out of it too. What good arguing about who did the best cover or who need best recognition? Gap is the source, and great artists made his genius revive. This is what I like about music. Sounds perpetually intertwined that would enrich themselves over and over!
its a beautiful song regardless with or without jaylib .. the fact is most people are looking up this track because of them , great music should be passed along its a commandnment of any artistic soul ... respect the old but embrace the new
HONESTLY......I love slum village, but when I heard the original version, I realized that the original is better.....if i didnt hear the original, i wouldve not been the wiser and said dilla version is the illest.....however, when it comes to dilla, if you really listen to the original sample in its entirety, than you are more appreciative of the original than the sample. If anyone really listened to dilla, then you know that he loved the songs he sampled and chose accordingly....
This is such a great composition, and Jay Dee got me so inspired I had to make a kind of tribute! Check it out on soundcloud search for Doctrations. Mad respect too Gap Mangione
I hate how people refer to this excellent song just as a "sample". Honestly, what the fuck how can you not appreciate the original itself? You guys are makin Dilla roll over in his grave.. I also like how people need to mention that flying lotus sampled this for "fall in love" when it was originally on a Slum Village album.
@Theb0x - just because someone mentions the sample does not mean thats all they see it for and have no appreciation for the song. dont get so worked up and realize that the sample is probably what brought them to this great track in the first place. and who gives a shit if people mention that it was sampled by others, its not like dilla owned the sample. light a joint/blunt and enjoy the music
@TheFreshPeddler i agree with you but the fact is j dilla and madlib took this song and made it an underground culture explosion ... if not for them this song would of probably not of been explored or even looked up they literally made it theres either way the music is beautiful and respected that we can all agree on
@Theb0x i think you should let people enjoy and appreciate the music and do the same your self lol theres no need to beef over music we both like. peace
i feel bad for this young generation they will never get to experience talent and creativeness like this with all this lil wayne lollipop nonsense"!!!!
@peanutboy0921 OMG,im in complete awe to hear my other Dilla jam..Man this dude is a MUSICAL GENUIS..there are no words to compare..I mean really,what makes you go through LP's like this to get heat..?
how did dilla and madlib manage to pull not one, but two, count 'em, TWO FUCKING HITS, with this one sample. they are like the mozarts of hip hop production
this is too much, cant get it through my brain how good the original is, and then what dilla and madlib done with it respectively is just pure skill!!
See now this makes sense...I was always confused about the Jaylib track "Official"...i know its been said a million times but it really does bounce like a Dilla track, not madlib, who in my mind has done nothing similar in his production collection. But he must have been influenced by Dilla's previous use of this amazing song. Respect to madlib but I just dont buy how he would otherwise just pull a heavy-dilla-style beat Official out of the bag randomly. makes sense.
First off, I love some of J Dilla's work. Like 10 Bricks. He MURRRRDERED that! but . . on jaylibs official . . he merely looped it and the percussion is sub par and frumpy. it has a certain groove to it i must say, sort of a Pete Rock feel. but . . when i'm about to sample something i check who did it b4 me and if they made it BANANAS then i don't touch it, out of admiration. Needless to say . . this sample is not off limits. Irregardless . . long live J Dilla R.I.P.
Ain gon lie, i feel Madlibs version more cuz it bangs but when I'm in my mode or zoning out, Dilla does it for me. Madlib and Dilla, the two very best. Also, I fell that Dilla put a lil more thought into his beat like no disrespect but Madlib could've made The Officaial in two seconds just by looping it. Dilla went in and found the melodies. But those horns are serious so props to both.
Yeah, dilla and madlib both sampled it, and both made killer tracks (especially fall in love) - but why are they getting all the credit? Its a great song by Gap Mangione!! Gap Mangione!!! Jeez...
^^^word to that. If you wanna give Dilla and Madlib their props, do it on the Fall n Love and The Official pages. Besides, all they did was loop it - this cat wrote it!
lol i wen ppl say all they did was loop it. its more den juss loopin. i produce trax ma self. and tha fall in love waz not looped. wen i remad that beat i had to cut certain parts out and put it bak together kinda like a puzzle. so dont get it twisted its more to the art of sampling then juss loopin. its wat yuh put into it
I wouldn't say a lot. A lot of his stuff sounds looped but he chops very subtly. Case in point, what he did with this sample for Fall In Love. He was a genius of this shit.
My God that image is scary. THE OFFICIAL! Hands in the air lemme see your wrist glow! Turn me up anotha notch in ya system, you know you want that hot shit to listen.
Come on people don't you people know it was Madlib who did this beat and Dilla who's rhymin'? You all giving credits, but to the wrong one for this track.. this was done by Madlib
wow man dilla, i cant say enough, the musical genius speaks for itself. Madlib does dilla big justice on continuing on what is left of hip hop today. rip dilla
