A Little Soul Sampling


Sampling a piece of music may not be creating your own work yet the reason I fell in love with rap and its beats was this flipping of old works. I've always been enamored too when upon hearing tracks with a sample, of finding the original piece of work. Being swayed by beats (and conversely not the lyrics) as much as I am, the sampled new songs make me listen again and again. Even the slightest bit of a sped up hook of a woman's voice can make a song for me, so it's interesting to see how much the producer has or hasn't changed the original. At times the new sampled track blows the older version out of the water, although other times its nicer to hear the orignal song without all that jive talk. Today we've got Curtis Mayfield whose other non-sampled material is groovy to say the least; the 80s RnB group El Debarge whose songs hold their own; Temptations once front man, David Ruffin whose work I just stumbled on (Shout out to Mally on this one). So without further ado, some samples (every once in a while I hope to put more samples up) and comment if you'd like on the new/old songs.
