This is a blend I created as a hip hop tribute to the Queen Of Soul, Aretha Franklin. For those who don't already know, producer Ayatollah originally sampled Aretha Franklin's "One Step Ahead" to create the beat for Mos Def's "Ms Fat Booty". For Aretha's verses, I blended it over Ayatollah's drums so it hits harder. For Mos Def's 1st verse, I deconstructed the Aretha sample, and rebuilt Ayatollah's beat adding some changes of my own. Mos' 2nd verse is from the retail version.
