Song: For My People
Year: 1990
Album: Business As Usual
Best Hip Hop album ever? Maybe. Top 10 definitely. I can't think of too many albums where every song is solid (I even like "Funky Piano").
Artist: The Game
Song: No More Fun And Games
Year: 2005
Album: The Documentary
The Game rhymes over the same loop.
Artist: Lyn Collins
Song: You Can't Love Me, If You Don't Respect Me
Year: 1975
Album: You Can't Love Me, If You Don't Respect Me 45-Single
Ice Cube had Yo-Yo and James Brown had Lyn Collins. This is an interesting song because it sounds like some of the song is repeated. Therefore, I will list both appearances of each sample.
The EPMD verse sample is the two bars from 1:25 and 3:39 (sounds identical to me). The EPMD chorus is the one bar from 2:06 and 4:20. Notice that each chorus sample is 41 seconds after each verse sample.
The Game had a more complex arrangement. The verse sample is the same as EPMD, but occasionally there is a one bar sample from 0:28. The "No More Fun And Games" sample is from 2:04 and 4:18.
