KRS One Piano riff is taken from a reggae riddim called 'Boops'

I love YES! Really enjoyed your vid! Do you know if anyone has sampled Led Zep? (besides P Diddy)

[andersingram]

@itzillmatic Cheers dude !

i always wondered and its well interesting to know ... its a dope dope tune ...

[itzillmatic]

This is a great video. Especially because you put the Hip Hop song after the original one.

[itzillmatic]

@andersingram I have this book, Check The Technique, where emcees talk about the making of their own classic albums. KRS talked about his, Criminal Minded. He did the song in one night, and completely produced in himself. The drums were sampled, but he played the piano riff himself.
