    Default Just heard a crazy version of Visionz

    Its from a vid posted here, where U, Meth and Cappa are performing at some skateboarding thing... It has a sample in the intro which is definately not on Forever. Some woman saying 'All Eyes' (may be different) with the same piano loop but slowed down -

    Any ideas???!!!!

    The instrumental version of Visionz I have has a Sade sample in between the verses that matches the above description. It's from a DJ Storm tape I downloaded years ago, so I figured it was part of the original version and they couldn't clear the sample for the album. Was wondering if there was any discussion of it here for clarification by any who know.

    which looks to be the same event from the lineup & venue, but the clip is of Triumph...comments suggest it was an MTV performance

    I’m convinced the version with the Sade vocal sample was the original and RZA had to cut it at the last minute because they couldn’t clear the sample. Otherwise, he probably would have used a different sample they could actually get licensed.
    Such a shame, sounds great.

    are you sure it's a Sade sample? Do you know which song Deck sampled?

    I mean its a dope lil intro sample but i wouldnt pay big money for using it either. Shoulda had one of the girls sing something like it tho it would have added some flavor to the beat.

    Not just the intro, it comes back to as part of the bigger loop.
