Earlier last week we brought you an exclusive Valentine’s Day beat tape from King E. With amazing production, this tape was the perfect soundtrack for that Valentine’s Day evening with your special someone. So many of you were inquiring about the samples that King E used in his production that I got together […]

There have been a lot of sample collections coming out, between the work I’ve done here and the sample collection from other sites such as Hip Hop Is Read, Lyrics2Go, and Bulldog’s Music Site. Most of them have been based on classic hip hop albums. I wanted to do one on a more […]

For today’s Thursday Throwback, we’re going waaaaaaayyyyyy back. 24 years to be exact… 1984. This was the year that I was introduced to hip hop and the song that got me hooked was UTFO’s “Roxanne Roxanne”. I was only 10 years old, but something about the simplistic beat and nursery rhyme-like lyrics […]

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 […]

Believe or not, this collection took a little bit to complete. There have been a few Late Registration sample collections floating around for awhile, but none of them have been complete. There were always a good handful of samples missing. Well, here it is finally…. all 21 samples Kanye West used to […]
