1. Durag Dynasty - 360 Waves
I wish I had room on this list for Roc Marciano, Termanology, Black Milk and Talib Kweli.
Before I played Durag Dynasty - 360 Waves for the first time, I thought to myself that I was about to hear a classic album. Alchemist, Planet Asia, TriState and Killer Ben did not disappoint. In the year 2033, the 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition should include last year's "Spudnik Webb" track.
Artist: Jerline And Friends
Song: Joy Trip (Part 1)
Year: 2007
Album: Best Of Friends
Although this song was recorded in the 1970's, it was rereleased on this 2007 album.
The Durag Dynasty intro is the sample starting at 0:01. The verses loop the four bars from 0:07 and 0:19. Another sample used in the song is the eight bars beginning at 0:57.
