Skyzoo’s The Salvation is one of my favorite albums of the year so far… with production from 9th Wonder, Illmind, Just Blaze, Black Milk, and Nottz you know the beats are hot and there has to be some great samples behind them. So you know we would eventually get around to compiling a sample set.
There are still a handful of samples yet unknown, but thanks to the good people at the-breaks.com and rapcredits.com I was able to compile a good majority of the samples here. Most of these are really, really great soul tracks. The one gem on here that I really love is Stark Reality’s “Dreams.” It’s one of those epic 8 minute tracks. Check em all out after the cut…

@gros13..BEDLAM “seven long years” (drums) for “easy to fly” and JERRY LACROIX “mean ole world (drums) for “maintain”
Thanks Skeme, I didn’t know there was another version of the Kate Bush track. And yeah, maybe I need to start labeling the drum breaks vs. the samples.
@kevin..no prob..yeah the other version is the single release version..you can hear the sample right from the beginning..i sent yall the track..keep up the great work..PEACE
OOOOH, I was hoping to find this somewhere, but man I wanted that “My Interpretation” sample. Thanks for the hard work tho.
GOOD JOB KEV!!! I didn’t think you would find the sampler for “The Opening”. But you did…. But I’ll tell you one thing… If you find the sample for “shoother Soundtrack” I’ll give you $1000 dollars CASH… Or a FREE BEAT for artist of your choice that your associated with.
haha, yeah, that’s a tough one man. As of right now, I have no clue. But I’m gonna take that challenge!
No offense cyrus but its not hard to find the sample for the opener, it was played at the end of the saving grace episode by sky, just search the lyrics and youll see its by kate bush. Il def try look for that shooters soundtrack sample tho, and my interpretation. Got my copy of salvation in post today easily number1 album of the year. and props to kev for getting the shoutout on the back!
I’ve actually haven’t seen ALL of the saving grace webisodes. So I wouldn’t have known that. And as for Shooters Soundtrack sample… The Detox and Saigon’s Album will probably come out before you can find that one…LOL
@CYRUS THA GREAT..props on your production on the album..btw your LITTLE BROTHER “freestyle” from your 50mc’s 2004 mixtape is still in heavy rotation
@Skeme… Thanks alot Bro…
