Thank u for this video. It's the first I've watched of yours and just wanted to say I've been talking to my grandma who is piano player/teacher and loves music but always had warped view of hip hop and slowly I've gotten her to understand how complex and talented the greats are and I'ma gonna show her this and I know how much she loves music history going far back as you can that she will understand and enjoy your video as I did. Also I appreciate how she will be able to like it so much because it doesn't have lot, if any dirty language and she's very much turned off of actually listening and watching anything dirty so it's hard for me to find stuff to show her

References and Sampling are not the same.

These are references, although impressive and important to acknowledge how far reaching Slick Rick's impact actually is/was. If you're looking for the impact of a sample itself, Nautilus by Bob James has been chopped and flipped 8 million ways from Sunday and has been in used in every sub-genre of hip hop.

Yes. This is a well produced video and an interesting subject but it repeatedly confuses sampling with lyrical referencing. The clips the video starts off with like the Amen Brothers' breakbeat-that's a sample the way people commonly discuss music production. But Biggie's hook in Hypnotize is not. It's a reference. The only time "sample" is used this broadly to talk about both of these techniques is in generalized legal terms.

The reason Slick Rick, Doug E. Fresh, Humpty, DMC, Sugarhill Gang, Fast Eddie, "list mid-to-late 80's Hiphop artist here" was referenced and sampled so much in Hiphop, Dance, House, Pop etc is because he was a pioneer when Hiphop was coming up in the musical ranks. He's part of that first group of lyricists that stood out and rep'd Hiphop and led it into what became mainstream so for most folks it 'started' with him and his peers in the late 80's. And in the 90's Hiphop truly went mainstream so yeah 90's artists are gonna bring up strong references to what led them down their paths to stardom and success even if it was literally less than a decade before them. Also most of that was referencing, sampling is when you take a section of audio from a preexisting track and mold it into yours in some way. Great video dude!

Children's story has to be on of the greatest pieces of musical history telling ever made.

I remember when the website first came out called who sampled... And you could type in the name of the song and artist or just type in the artist and see what list of songs they have and you click on the song and it will show you where they got every sample from in that song it was so cool finding that out because you would think they look sample really old stuff and you find out they sample stuff that just came out the year before instead of stuff from the 50s 60s or 70s.

You should do one of these kinda vids on Sister Nancy - Bam Bam. Read an article a while back about how she's kinda pissed it's been sampled by seemingly hundreds but she never got money from royalties. And I think it's been sampled nearly as much as this track.

Dude this is gold!

Pierre Schaeffer's idea of "Musique Concrète" is one of the most important ideas in 20th century culture, and not just for its influence on hip-hop sampling and interpolation. In the 1950s, only a few years after he proposed it, it was put to use by a hugely popular British radio comedy called "The Goon Show", which was definitely one of the main influences of Monty Python's Flying Circus, but I reckon it also pushed boundaries of what was possible with audio technology and showcased it to an audience that would have included those who went on to engineer much of the popular music of the 1960s and 70s.

Great job on the video! Keep doing what you're doing while learning and improving with each video and I'm sure you'll find success!

I just found you on my recommended, your editing is absolutely amazing. Honestly you deserve so much more recognition.

One of the most sampled but not "the" most sampled. Lyn Collins' Think (About It) has been sampled more than Funky Drummer. The "wooh yeah" from that is one example but there are elements from that song throughout (early) hiphop and dance music. And the Winstons Amen Brother probably beats Funky Drummer aswell, allthough that was used a lot in Jungle/Drum'n'Bass/breakbeat and is pretty much the foundation those genres were built on.

using a line or hook isn't really "sampling" unless it's the actual audio clip from the original song but going of the way "sampling" is described in the video the only other hip hop song I can think of that can compete with "LA Di Da Di" is "Top Billin'" by audio two at least 90% of that song has reused in dozens of hip hop songs if not more

I like the story of the "Amen beat", which is still used to this very day.
