Sloppy Sampling

I stumbled across this and thought, "Damn, that's some sloppy sampling." What are some other Hip Hop joints that have samples you've heard of that just make you cringe? Also, I once saw some local cats rapping over a sped up Rod Stewart sample that was easily the strangest thing I've ever heard someone rap over.

    At least Black Milk isn't rhyming over the singing. If you want sloppy "sampling" how about this?!

    Dang, I thought this thread was going to be about people's favorite songs with sloppy sampling.



    It'd be a lot cooler if it was.

    It's not too late to change that.

    okay really can you not hear where every sample pad begins? broken usually in the middle of a phrase, rather than around it?

    maybe you and others can hear it but you just don't consider it cringeworthy, but I know what the threadstarter meant.

    I can't believe this hasn't turned into a Madlib-bashing thread yet

    I'm ridin' with Marciano on that one. Which is the sloppy one? Nice sample though, especially since I don't even like the original song very much

    and btw, sloppy sampling is the 9th element of Hip Hop :real_headz: :get_on_my_level:

    I prefer the Roc Marciano joint too. I didn't know about Alc's version until I went looking for the sample... I agree, the rest of the song is not all that.

    But I love that, "Iiiii go out and spend my money, so they can see me styling!"

    i can hear it, i thought it was a stylistic and intentional choice?

    you know maybe it was intentional. I just don't like how the samples have been broken up like that, I guess. And it seems like the chorus is pitched a little differently than the main loop. And as Phill did point out, there are some great sloppy samples in hip hop. I mean, the Top Billin' drums were a mistake right? I won't knock that. Sometimes mistakes are good but I guess I just was just thinkin that this track just sounds off to me. I bet that if I'd never heard that Lee Fields record I wouldn't even notice. Oh well, if you enjoy then please keep playin it. I don't know everything.
