Artist: Public Enemy

Title: Caught Can We Get A Witness

Album: It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

 

WAY to many for me to remember... Strange that this one wasn't already listed...

 

Natural Born Chillers - Rock The Funky Beat [Urban Takeover]

Vocal: If y'all really like to rock the funky beats

 

Special K - Up Top [Low Key]

Special K - Up Top (Remix) [Proper Talent]

Vocal: I like that for the people up top

 

2 In A Room - Somebody In The House Say Yeah! [Cutting Records]

Vocal: Somebody In The House Say Yeah

 

Couldn't think of one using the "Check this out" vocal... (though DJ Ani and DJ Psycangle probably have...)

Also used on Dope Jam - Rock the beats - Rude & Deadly

 

I think one of the Stretch things on A-KO sampled "check this out"

 

You are thinking of "Check dis", which has a different sample altogether; "Check this shit out"

Incidently, its not listed on the database either, if someone wants to add it, the details:

De-Elite - Check dis/Too deep (De-Elite Vol 1)

"Here we go again" is used in a jungle tune as well but can't remember which one. Some 94-96 amen thing.

 

Isn't the "Come on" at around 3:50 used in something? In a 92ish hardcore tune, it's pitched up a bit and repeated "come on, c-c-come on, come on". Might be a Seduction tune?

 

I'm getting so much worse at remembering where all of these were sampled :mellow:

Aaaaaaah...that's not actually the one I was thinking of but should have remembered that one too!

 

I was always under the impression that it was from "Power to the people" in the line "And you thought the beat slowed down, COME ON"

The whole line being used in many other tracks too.

 

EDIT - Only place i could find a clip. It's in the intro.

The sample in Seduction - Come On is definitely from "Caught, Can We Get a Witness". "Power to the People" doesn't have the "y'all" bit in there. The other one that I'm thinking of might actually be from Power...hard to say

 

You're right, though. That one's been sampled loads of times as well. The "turn it up" bit is very familiar and the "understand" at the end was taken for Tango's Understanding. I'll start a thread now

Not sure if this needs a new entry.

 

From a Public Enemy live show in London

 

"We heard that London in England likes to rock the funky beats

 

<crowd noise>

 

"if y'all really like to rock the funky beats, somebody say hell yeah"

"I like that from the people up top, check this out"

 

I think that this is the main source as the vocal is clean and sounds like the samples.
