$100 Bills sampled 'Spiral' by Vangelis. Using a mobile device, so I can't submit the entry.

Didn't the 2012 song "Glory" sample another song? I remember seeing it here. I think it was a Curtis Mayfield song.

Spinks said on Thursday, 17 May 2012:
Movie samples have different requirements in terms of metadata, licensing etc. - we're certainly planning to have them in the future though. You can see more in the discussion here: http://www.whosampled.com/forum/topic/216/Movie-samples.../

Jay Gumbs said on Thursday, 17 May 2012:
Movie samples aren't allowed as yet. They're still working on this feature.

The Fall Guy said on Wednesday, 16 May 2012:
I did not know movie samples are not allowed here. Is there a reason why?

Drpepperfan said on Wednesday, 16 May 2012:
It does indeed (best sample ever).

Shame it can't be submitted though, seeing as movie samples aren't allowed. :[

The Fall Guy said on Wednesday, 16 May 2012:
Doesn't "N****s in Paris" sample a Will Ferrell movie called "Blades of Glory"? There's a part in the song where dialogue from the movie appears.

This is the original credited song from where Jay-Z and Kanye sampled on "Murder to Excellence". The song is called "La La La" and it is the compostion of Mihaela and Gabriela Modorcea a.k.a. Indiggo Twins:

Take out the fake videos you posted.

I've just heard that Jay-Z is gonna try and launch JLS in America... please, don't.

He'll lose serious credibility in my book if he goes any where near JLS.

Not happy.

DJ Anubis said on Sunday, 27 June 2010:
I love his "Trouble" track, but what's up with all the "lil n****s" at the end? Inspiration ran out?

Jay-Z is the best rapper of all time.
