Check this..




Interviewer: Two compilations entitled "Shaolin Soul", made by a French guy, were released over here a few years ago. They gathered some of the original tracks that you sampled for the Wu albums (group or solo albums). Are you one of these producers who prefer to keep the mystery around the tracks they sample, or do you think that it's a good idea to put them out on the market at the disposal of the public and maybe help some soul or jazz artists being re-discovered ?

RZA: I think it was a good thing, it's a blessing for the artists. Look at Syl Johnson: you know who's Syl Johnson, right? You know I sampled him quite a lot. You know who's his daughter?

Interviewer: Err… No.

RZA: Syleena Johnson! And do you know who Syleena Johnson's singin' with? Kanye West! She's makin' money there!

Interviewer: Yeah, obviously…

RZA: Syl Johnson would always call me: "Yo RZA, you gotta talk to my daughter”. His daughetr's first record was on GZA's album "Beneath The Surface": she sang on it and made a great job. But we didn't sign her or whatever. Now, she's getting' a lot of money cause she's on Kanye West's album.

As for Syl Johnson, when I sampled his music, he called me up, he's like: "Yo man, thank you man…”. I said : "Yo, I will use 10 more of your songs in the next 5 years. I wanna pay you 100.000 $ right now”. He's like "What?!” (laughs). I paid him… I used the songs… He's back in business and he's makin' 1.000.000 $ a year now. So it's a blessing to help other older brothers get their shit cause so many of them have been robbed, cheated of their publishing.

Does anybody know the correct version of "I Loves You Porgy" used for A Day to God Is 1,000 Years? I've always thought it was Nina Simone's, but I'm thinking that's not it now....

I know it's Billie, but she recorded it so many times over the years it's hard to say exactly which one RZA used.
Probably my favorite RZA beat of the past couple of years.

America Is Dying Slowly

Yeah, I came across an old Billie Holiday version that kinda changed my mind about the Nina version I had. I think you're right though. I believe it's the Billie version now as well.

Does ne1 know or have the sample to Cilvaringz "Brothers aint brothers"???

what about sinusse impasse?

Theodore Unit (Trife) - Put It on the Line


Lyn Collins - Put it on the Line

LL Cool J's "I Shot Ya" used the same sample
