How come nobody ever samples country

(1/6) > >>

I'm serious... I've said this like 1000 times, but if someone came along, and was creative enough to sample all the great country songs (not the stupid ones), they'd make a fortune.  I was just listening to this song "Angels among us" by Alabama, and it's country as hell, but man if you lifted that chorus for a rap track, it'd sell platinum.  It'd cross over a million different ways, I just don't understand why people ignore country music when they go sampling... the only thing I can think of off the top of my head that's ever been sampled is Refugee camp sampled or interpolated 'islands in the stream' by kenny rogers, and then wyclef put kenny rogers on his last cd.  

Trauma-san:
I'm listening to this other perfect sample now, this dude's singing about how this woman and him got in a big fight, and then the key changes, and he goes


"If I know me..... I'll turn this car around....
I won't get halfway through town, and I'll be sorry...
I'll stop and call, and you'll say you're sorry too...
and Ill come running back to you, if I know me"


That'd be a PERFECT sample.  Cut, Paste, Hit.  

Here's another one, same guy...

"All night, we love all night
Practice makes perfect, gonna get it right
Gonna get it right, one night at a time"


or there's another part of the song that goes

"I'm not yours, and baby you're not mine
but We've got something and it sure is fine,
lets take our love, one night at a time"

Either of those would be perfect for like a r&b flavored track, I just dont' get why people don't lift all this stuff.  

Trauma-san:
Another one, but it'd have to be redone to sound less twangy


"Oh baby... Oh, what a crying shame,
To let it all slip away, and call it yesterday...
Oh baby, my life would be so blue,
my heart would break in two, oh what a crying shame....."

This stuff is PERFECT and nobody outside of country has ever even heard it.  where's puffy, I've got a proposition...

Don Seer:
dont want people committing suicide to rap music too..

Trauma-san:
Oh, good point.
