Sample it twice
Sometimes, the same use of a sample can lead to the same success.
For example, The High & Mighty mostly known for this tune, began with the successful “B-Boy Document” on Rawkus Label in 1999. Mos Def, at the dawn of his carreer then, and the underground-to-his-feet rapper from Virginia Mad Skillz came to drop a verse each.
It will later be a part of the And 1 mixtape soundtrack.
A year later for the new millenium occasion, the D.I.T.C crew ( Diggin In The Crates) including Fat Joe, Big L, Lord Finesse, O.C, Buckwild, Showbiz & A.G, and Diamond D released an eponym album on which figure the track based on the same loop as High & Mighty, “Way of Life”.
Here’s Joe Thomas with his funky work, Polarizer. Both Buckwild and DJ Mighty used the song intro probably made for Hip-Hop beats.
Joe Thomas – Polarizer
High and Mighty – B-Boy Document 99
D.I.T.C – Way of Life
Enjoy Big L’s flow as it was one his last words as he was shot in 1999 and died. An other figure who now belongs to music legends.
