Title: Any tracks on The Chronic sample-free?
Post by: Larrabee on November 13, 2005, 04:55:36 PM: I think "Deeez Nuuuts" is the only track on that album that is 100% original. Can anyone confirm this?

Actually, I'm not even sure "Deeez Nuuuts" is sample-free, either. I dunno about the drums or anything else, but the synthesizers sound an awful lot like something from a Funkadelic or Ohio Players track (with the long drag on keys moving across the 8th octave). Just because nobody's figured it out yet doesn't mean it's not sampled.

100% original is extremely rare in hip-hop. Pretty much every rap record ever made is based upon samples to some degree. That's what makes it hip-hop in the first place - you take old vinyl and make it into something newer and more exciting.

Post by: No Compute on November 14, 2005, 02:14:29 AM: Yeah I don't think Deeez Nuuutz has a sample (none actually are sampled though like BJv said) every other track does though. Yeah G Thang is pretty much the exact same as "I Want'A Do Something Freaky to You" same with The Roach sounding exactly the same as "P Funk (Wants To Get Funked Up)" although I view this as a parody of the track so it makes sense. Gz and Hustlaz is also pretty much exactly the same as "Haboglabotribin'".
