Samples Galore Jay-Z, Jurassic 5, Kanye West

For all you kids out there. This is a selection of a couple of my favourite samples used by some of my favourite players in the Hip Hop game today.


RIP Jurassic 5, Long Live the Kings


Mr Welfare Man- Curtis Mayfield - As used in Jurassic 5's 'Gotta Understand'
Music Man Pts 1 & 2 - Pleasure Web - As used in Jurassic 5's 'Jayou'
Make The Road By Walking- Menahan Street Band - As heard in Jay-Z's 'Roc Boys'

Jurassic 5 May Have Left Us, But Have You Heard The Dino 5

This is awesome, as part of the Baby Loves music series come the Dino 5.

The Dino 5 consists of Prince Paul, Chali 2Na (Jurassic 5), LadyBug Mecca (Digable Planets), Scratch (The Roots) and Wordsworth (eMC). A lineup any crew would be jealous of.

Part book on tape, cartoon series, part Broadway show, tells the story of 5 dinosaur budies who come together to teach key life lessons and have fun. It is said to be the Three Feet High and Rising for the new generation
