I don't think it was rerecorded. It's at the point now where Kanye can call someone up and get their stems no problem. Must be nice.

I've reported the submission for changing. Thanks for the info.

Indiggo Twins' LA LA LA is the original credited song from where Jay-Z and Kanye West sampled on "Murder to Excellence"; it is the compostion of Mihaela and Gabriela Modorcea a.k.a. Indiggo Twins who own the copyright. Here it is:

Please, take out the video above and place Indiggo twins' LA LA LA. Enough promotion on behalf of the Indiggo Twins.

It's an image manipulation made by taking the top half of Kanye's head and using Photoshop or some other digital software to attach the lower half of Jay-Z's head to it.

Whose picture is that on the video for "Murder To Excellence"? Is it Jay-Z with a bush, or is it a Clean-shaven Kanye West?

Jay93 said on Thursday, 08 December 2011:
@marioharvey yeah I think you're right that could well be the version.

marioharvey said on Thursday, 08 December 2011:
Its pretty much a loop with some instruments played over to accentuate and bring the loop together. The guitar and the buzz saw bass make it sound real big.

Here is what I think is the real sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3r0AsEB8gM

Jay93 said on Friday, 25 November 2011:
this is the wrong version

Jay Gumbs said on Saturday, 27 August 2011:
I think the name of the song is called Fetele De La Căpâlna. I don't know who performed it but it seems
Fetele De La Căpâlna is a Romanian folk song that means "Girls from Capalna".

never mind no reply needed, the break featured on drum crazy is from "The Sorcerer of Isis" by The Power of Zeus. Thanks anyway though

dj kirsh said on Tuesday, 23 August 2011:
I figured out where i knew the break from, it's not Don't Change Your love but it's a drum break featured on Drum Crazy Vol. 3. - "North Side" (Side A?) Track 1. But are we allowed to submit albums released as DJ/production tools?

dj kirsh said on Monday, 22 August 2011:
Ha sounds like Quincy samples Bob James Nautilus at 1:24. I don't hear the drums coming from here but I think the vocal parts at the same section in Murder to Excellence @ 2:30, probably came from this song off of The Color Purple soundtrack. They were probably chopped up with an mpc, pitch shifted and filtered. actually pretty damn dope.

Jay Gumbs said on Monday, 22 August 2011:
Never thought of it but it would look sick all beibered out wouldn't it? Hmmm.

There's another sample mentioned though and it might be where they got the drums from. Not sure. See if you can find anything:

dj kirsh said on Monday, 22 August 2011:
Yeah i hear ya, Jay. I was sort of pulling teeth to get a comment about the drums. I'm of no help with the Indiggo bit. nice profile pic change by the by though; I'm a big pun fan. you ever thought of biebering it though?

Jay Gumbs said on Monday, 22 August 2011:
To be honest, I think this is what they sampled. I just want to hear what others have to say because of the album credits thing. I can't find anything at all about Indiggo and Lalala which is why I figured maybe they re-sung it.

dj kirsh said on Monday, 22 August 2011:
Hmm if they resung Lalala then they really did a good production job because it sounds like direct with the right amount of reverb and such. What about the drums though...at 2:29 I think it sounds like Don't Change Your Love by the 5 Stairsteps or maybe an mpc flipped Synthetic Substitution. Any thoughts?

Jay Gumbs said on Monday, 22 August 2011:
Is it really direct? Because according to the album credits, Indiggo was either sampled or they resung Lalala. I don't think the details are correct for the original either.
