We’ve had a spare $15 iTunes giftcard for quite some time, so we figured, why not shake things up? Send over an email (be sure to include name and location) as soon as you figure out who the subject of this weeks Sample Wednesday is, and the first response will receive a card code to d/l $15 bucks worth of music from iTunes. Enjoy

    Hov

    Imaginary Playmates is a dead giveaway, but I didn’t have the heart to take it off the list (the song is so dman good!).

    We really just wanted to get rid of the itunes card we’ve had, and didn’t expect a kadrillion responses right away so…there’ll be a next time, and next time, we’ll up the challenge level quite a bit…

    Great selection as per usual. Would anyone know what sample J samples in ‘What More Can I Say?’

    I heard it years ago but can’t for the life of me remember who composed it.

    Keep it up POS!

    “What More Can I Say” is, indeed, MFSB’s “Something for Nothing.” It was also used by Tracey Lee and Biggie. Jay bit both the sample and the Biggie line about “rings ‘n things…bring ‘em out.”
