Don’t Quit Your Day Job: Original Samples

by Thomas on January 11, 2009 · 7 comments

Originally compiled by our homie Bulldog before his blog took a dump, Consequence’s Don’t Quit Your Day Job was a must for us to recompile. Most Kanye fans will dig this set as it includes the samples for some of Kanye’s best beats (”The Good, The Bad, The Ugly” and “Grammy Family”). This set marks Day 11 of our January Month of Samples. Enjoy!
