I want to write about how Kirk Franklin& #39;s exclusively prolific history with sampling in his music, and how it singlehandedly revolutionized gospel production.
I mean, we& #39;re talking Bill Withers, Patrice Rushen, Earth Wind and Fire, S.O.S. Band, Funkadelic, L.T.D., Jacksons, Deneice Williams, Kenny Loggins, Boogie Down Productions. No one worked harder than GospoCentric& #39;s sample clearance team.
Also, "Looking For You" is one of the greatest sample usages I& #39;ve ever heard.
Mary Mary too. When I first heard that Bola Sete sample on "And I", I lost it.
I just noticed "Walking" samples Crystal Waters& #39; "Gypsy Woman" and ...dawg, that foundation sets the whole record AWF!!! Love this joint. https://open.spotify.com/track/05kpDKj3MNFtZOlKkfurGG?si=VXzi_G8mRxu4bLOMDSANXA">https://open.spotify.com/track/05k...
But nah, J. Moss sampling The Time& #39;s "777-9311" for "Dance" is elite. https://open.spotify.com/track/5cNZQW3IKvXlc2adntDk34?si=b-qd9YgCT5iT9Wc_w6sVWg">https://open.spotify.com/track/5cN...
J. Moss sampling "Sesame Street Theme Song" on "Victory" is worthy of a GRAMMY nomination AND win. https://open.spotify.com/track/02q6RntuWc7HcIN41KtnN5?si=ULoItcDmQNOL-iHLcbtQiQ">https://open.spotify.com/track/02q...
