Song: Bounce Ta This
Year: 1992
Album: Runaway Slave
With Dres of Black Sheep on the track, this is one of my favourites from the era.
Artist: A Tribe Called Quest
Song: Mr. Incognito
Year: 1994
Album: Not Officially Released in 1994
I believe it was 1994 when I heard this song on the radio. Since it wasn't released officially at the time, I assumed it was on a white label 12-inch single. This song also appears on the album shown in the picture, a compilation released in 2003 called Hits, Rarities & Remixes. Fugees (Tranzlator Crew) also used the bassline occasionally in "Nappy Heads".
Artist: Buster Williams
Song: The Hump
Year: 1975
Album: Pinnacle
I still like Jazz bass for Hip Hop. Showbiz & A.G. used the one-bar loop that starts at 7:10. A Tribe Called Quest used the two-bar loop starting at 0:40.
