And you all thought the Nas samples were done! This set has been requested here on the site countless times. Our man Bulldog hooked it up a while back, but lost it along with the rest of his sample sets. We’ll be revisiting some more of the sets he’s done in the [...]

I know, I know, WTF right? Well, a lot of you may be scoffing now, but I bet you all will still download this set! I surprised Kevin the other day when I told him I was working on these samples and he almost didn’t let me post it. Luckily he came around and also [...]

Another collaboration with Goon! This time we hit up Fat Joe’s debut album, Represent. This was back when he went by Fat Joe da Gangsta. Yeah, glad he changed that! Represent has stellar production from Diamond D, The Beatnuts, and Lord Finnese. Enjoy the samples!

Unofficial Pete Rock day on the site today! Actually if we would have planned it out, we could have put together some nice gems. We’ll leave that for another time. Thanks to Goon for leading a hand in this set as well. Pete Rock’s debut solo album… so many samples!
September 14, 2008 – 9:27 am
Here’s a sample set that we worked on with Goon over at Goons Dancing. Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth released this EP as a warm up to their 1992 debut Mecca and The Soul Brother. The EP was only 6 tracks long, but it’s 17 samples deep!

Another project totally produced by DJ Premier, Wrath of The Math is the sophomore album from Jeru The Damaja, released in 1996.

1998’s debut album from The LOX had Bad Boy written all over it. With production by Puffy’s Hitmen and Dame Grease, Money Power & Respect introduced the world to Jadakiss, Sheek Louch, and Styles P. Now known as D-Block, the trio is set to give us a new album this November. Can’t wait. Here are [...]

This 1994 debut from Bad Boy artist Craig Mack was the second project released by Bad Boy Records. The first being the Notorious B.I.G.’s Ready To Die, Project: Funk Da World was highly overshadowed by the success of Biggie’s debut.
Executively produced by Puffy, this album includes the regular Bad Boy producers Easy Mo Bee for [...]

It’s been a minute since we’ve dropped a dope sample set on you all. Just so you know, Kev and I have been hard at work and we have quite a few sets lined up for release soon.
This one’s for all you Preemo heads out there! The Sun Rises in The East is the 1994 [...]

Here’s disc two of the much anticipated Unreleased, Collabos, and B-Sides. Ghostface Week has been a blast for us so far, but we ain’t done yet. We got more goodies to last through Saturday!
August 26, 2008 – 1:05 pm
So many hot Ghostface tracks that were either not on Ghostface albums or unreleased altogether that it took two discs to compile! This right here is Disc 1. Hope you’re enjoying Ghostface Week!

Since this is Ghostface Week here on the site, Kev and I have put together a few compilations of Ghost’s dopest work. This set right here is what I like to call Ghost Stories. Included in this mix is some of Ghostface’s best verses as an emcee. The order of the tracks should tell a [...]

Someone requested some Shyne samples. Here’s the first album. Second one coming up next!

Here are the samples from Wu-Tang member, Inspectah Deck’s 1999 solo debut — Uncontrolled Substance.

We got a ton more sample sets to put up, but can’t get em out fast enough! Here’s a small set to hold you all over. Internal Affairs was the 1999 solo debut from Pharoahe Monch. Incredible album, but because of the illegal use of the “Godzilla Theme Song” as a sample in “Simon Says”, [...]

Continuing on with another Def Quad sample set, we compiled the samples from Keith Murray’s debut album. Released in 1994, The Most Beautifullest Thing In This World was hot primarily because it was mostly produced by Erick Sermon. You’ll notice that this sample set coupled with Sermon’s No Pressure sample set make for one nice [...]

No Pressure is the debut solo album from Erick Sermon. It was the first album that the former EPMD member released after 1992’s Business Never Personal. It was well-received and is probably his most popular album. Although the album’s goal may have been for Sermon to establish a solo career, some feel that it sounded [...]

On October 24, 1995, Fat Joe released his sophomore album Jealous One’s Envy. Probably one of Joe’s better albums, it included guest appearances from KRS-One and Raekwon along with production by DJ Premier, Diamond D, and L.E.S.
Check the samples…

Released on September 12, 1995, 4,5,6 is the solo debut album from Kool G Rap. The release followed his break-up with DJ Polo in 1993. The album was not received well critically, but was warmly accepted by underground fans. Despite the album’s dark, grimy street sound, it peaked at number one on the R&B/Hip-Hop charts, [...]
