how many of y'all thought...

that pac's california love is an original song???

it's not a beat using samples, but today i discovered it's not original

the basic idea of the california love beat has been stolen from: Joe Cocker - Woman To Woman

califorina love is a great song anyway... but i was really suprised when i found that out and was wondering how many of you knew..

[Nima - Dubcnn.com]

yeah i found out a few years ago, it is kind of shocking when you find out one of your favorite beats was HEAVILY taken from another song.

i mean the most shocking one is the Nuthin' But A G Thang one but i figure everybody knows about that

[Lord Funk]

Older heads probably already knew that track - EPMD and K-Solo used it on 'Knick Knack Paddy Wack' in the late 80s.

Plus, I was sure that 'Woman to Woman' sample was credited in AEOM? It definately is on the promo 12" I got.

i think i came across the nuthin but a g thang OG
but i was bussy or something and didnt care that much... i dont know why
but now where you say it i think i recognize - who did the original, what is it called?

but im really shocked about california love.... i would've never thought its not original

Check out Overseers Diggin' Articles from back in the day and read about a listen to some of the samples used on the Chronic, Doggystlye and ATLs BML

I knew it sampled that.

yea sure, but it doesnt sample it!... i already wrote that - its not sampled - its "only" the idea.. they keys and the rhythm... its just very easy to reproduce - so no need for sampling

[Jip]

that thing overseer wrote up, the same song is sampled 3 times, twice on dogglystyle and once on the chronic, i find that a little hard to belive since that "sample FAQ" thing is down

[No Compute]

It's credited as a sample on Pac's Greatest Hits but not AEOM.

[Leggy Hendrix]

no shit
