Since I finished up the Late Registration samples last week, it was only fit that I do the same for Kanye West’s debut album, College Dropout. Now I know you’re saying, “Hasn’t somebody done these before?” Surprisingly, no. Just like the Late Registration samples, nobody has ever completed the collection (to my knowledge). Which is unbelievable, because there are only 12 listed samples that Kanye used for this classic album. This set is nowhere as spectacular as the Late Registration sample collection, but there are some nice gems on here. Thanks to Krome, who brought my vision of the album cover to light!

when you read the sample list you can realize that kanye is a genious. Who in these days still listening and using Blackjack and Jimmy Castor Bunch samples?
Thanks kev for this joint, and nice cover krome.
your the best
Most big producers that sample have people that recommend resords to sample, so don’t be amazed.
I was trying to finish this one. Couldn’t find the Arc Choir and The Dells songs. Set is missing one “Precious, Precious” by Jackie Moore for “Breathe In, Breathe Out”
Thanks Thomas…. I didn’t know of that sample. I’ll have to update this collection with that track.

hey kev,
I listen to the Bette Midler song and I wonder that the part that samples a womans voice in “last call” (“here’s to the roc” and “here’s to rocafella”) don’t appears in the bette midler song. Maybe you know where kanye took this sample from…

Hey man,
cheers for this. Just hoping you can re-up the full version of the Arc Chpir song though. The megaupload link only had the 24 second clip.
Cheers
