I’m not sure if you guys are totally interested in this, but I figured I’d give it a try. What we got today is the original songs that are sampled in many popular songs. The top song is the original song, and the below song is the song that sampled the original. If you’d like, I have plenty more of these, so ask, and you shall receive. If you don’t like it, please let me know (be nice though haha), and you won’t get any more of these types of posts. Hope everyone had a happy and safe new year.
