Kool and the Gang "Give It Up"

Off their 1969 self titled debut lp. Another funky classic by Kool and the Gang. These horn licks let you know why they had the baddest horns in the land!!

I love Kool & The Gang?

Have you heard Amerie's Hate2LoveU? She samples this song.

[LamontCJ]

No, I haven't had the pleasure.

[LamontCJ]

Ditto!!

[vegunited06]

the breakbeat got sampled alot for early 90s rave.

[LamontCJ]

Gotcha! It's amazing how a whole generation relates to songs by it's sample taken for another song. Mad Crazy. I should be mad but art and expression is eclectic so I just wonder and appreciate in my way and respect others for their way.

@vegunited06 Don't forget Eric B and Rakim.

[almo2001]

More like this and KatG would be one of my favorite bands. But they went pop. :( Good pop, but not like this.

[Kiwizzle44]

For anyone who came for Eric B and Rakim, the sample is at 2:07 and then 2:24

James, Fred, Maeo, Jimmy Nolen: Eat your hearts out.
