All the greats have sampled from Curtis. From Jay-Z to Ice-T to Mary J to the Beasties. You're alone on this one.

Why not sample Curtis Mayfield?

deadbeatdj said on Saturday, 25 July 2009:
I love how Kanye demanded a Grammy for this one. I got one rule of sampling, and that is DON'T SAMPLE CURTIS MAYFIELD.
