Probably cos the original wasn't cleared in the PE song and they want to avoid any problems with the original artist down the line

Like the Pete Rock sample in Runaway, the liner notes for this track credit the source to the sampled sample (James Brown) How exactly does this work? Does the label actually go out of their way just to figure out where Public Enemy got their sample from?

Isn't that a james brown sample?
