Title: Interesting FACT About a DJ QUIK Creation...
Post by: Shade Sheist™ on April 16, 2008, 09:01:10 AM
Yall know "Let's Get Down" by Tony Toni Tone right..?
of course, we all do.. LoL.

But did you also know that the hook/melody was borrowed from Kurt Cobain..?
Listen to "Smells Like Teen Spirit" ...
each B-Section and the end when he belts it on the guitar..

Quik is known for finding gems in different places..
The Indian sample from Truth Hurts' "So Addictive" was sampled straight off the tv..
all spawned from an argument with his Lady! LoL..

Dr.Dre.. does it too.. Listens to French Music and then interpolates new melodies..

Some of you knew this.. This was for those who DON'T.

Peace & Respect.

It's amazing how many hip hop hits contain "samples of" or "elements of" something. Dre's Next Epidsode is basically someone else's entire work with Dre adding some percussion. I once saw a list of all the hit songs and what samples they contained.


Anyways, more props to them. Ima  make a fucking hit off some samples!!!!! Who wants to go into business with me?!?!

Yo Shade, what was the beef between Damizza and Quik? We never heard Damizza side of the story. ..

Yeh, I've always noticed that and I still don't know if it was a good thang to sample a classic like that, but Quik and Raphael are legends and it came out great.

right.. dre sampled a french singer really known in france, charles aznavour. he used a song from him for what's the difference.

I remember Dr. Dre, Aftermath, and Insterscope got stung with a 500 million $ (yes indeed!) laswsuit back in the days over "Addictive" when an Hindi musician said Quik used an uncleared sample of that song ... A  judge later ruled that the album was not to be sold with out being stickered with proper credits for Mangeshkar (the artist)
