I was convinced it was too until I read the vinyl liner notes. He calls out samples on actually way more tracks than I realized, but that's not one of them...🤔

I finally got around to listening to the new Aaron Frazer album and it's been on repeat for the past couple weeks. So good! I love that Aaron explored the use of samples on this album and executed it perfectly! Soul music is sampled in a lot of hip-hop, but I don't know many examples of soul...

This has been my most anticipated album of the year. Can't wait for new music from Kelly!

100% agree, appending Vol. 1 to the end hopefully was because they have more to come. We'll see!

I've been listening to this album a lot lately and really love it! Pete Rock's production is great and Common's smooth delivery goes great over it.

Bilal featuring Questlove, Robert Glasper & Burniss Travis – Live at Glasshaus I wasn't aware of this until your post but definitely will be checking it out I'm enjoying the new NxWorries on first listen too!

Last self promotion post, I promise. This week's episode of my podcast plays more like a game and allows you to guess each of the 6 samples we discuss at a higher level and report how you did guessing in the Spotify poll. Thought you might like it, and this will be the episode format every 3rd...

Ok, this is my last self promotion post, I promise haha The latest episode of the Sample Mining Podcast is the first in what I'm calling the chip samples series. Instead of diving deep on a single sample, we discuss multiple samples tied together by a theme at a higher level. This week's theme...
