Song: Check It Out
Year: 1994
Album: The Main Ingredient
I think this is a great album but what's really funny to me is how almost every track contains a sample of Biz Markie or Big Daddy Kane.
Artist: Da King & I
Song: What's Up Doc
Year: 1993
Album: Contemporary Jeep Music
I have to mention that these guys used a different sample from the same song and did it earlier than Pete Rock. 93 Flava!
Artist: Young-Holt Unlimited
Song: Bumpin' On Young Street
Year: 1973
Album: Oh Girl
I still remember in the late 1990's walking into Cosmos Records on Queen Street in Toronto and hearing this song. I quickly asked what it was. The Toronto version of this song would be "Bumpin' On Yonge Street". The Da King & I sample occurs at 1:48 and the Pete Rock sample at 1:57.
