Pass The Mic Video Version
 

In the video version of Pass The Mic when Mike raps his third verse there's a jazz sample I can't find. Or is it them playing the music?

Anyone?

yeah the little cool horn sample. i’ve always wondered where they got that as well.

Re: Pass The Mic Video Version
 

yes, the horn sample but also the beat he raps over in his third verse!

Love that part :)

Re: Pass The Mic Video Version
 

yeah man, the beat part you’re hearing i’m pretty sure is theirs. you can hear it better in Dub the Mic. the little horn thing is in Dub too but it has an effect on it.

Re: Pass The Mic Video Version
 

I always thought it was a sampled beat from a jazz record.
Like the Dr John beat in Dub The Mic.

Thanks Micodin (y)

Re: Pass The Mic Video Version
 

I found the samples :)

The Beat part:
Funkadelic - "I Wanna Know if its Good To You"

The Horn part:
Southside Movement - "Funk Talk"

Well now that that mystery is solved, does anyone know where the "McDonald's" sample at the end of the single version of Pass the Mic comes from? Is that them (Beastie Boys, Young Aborogines, Young and the Useless)?

nice find! you know what it’s funny because i searched Who Sampled for Dub the Mic when this thread started and it only listed The Germs - Richie Daggers Crime which kinda broke my brain.

anyhoo, one mystery solved on to the next.

that’s always been my guess. i’ve always been a fan of that stinger on that version.

Back when that single dropped a friend told me it was a Descendents song performed live..?
