Apologies to DJ Premier, we’re violating. This is a real treat though.

Comments for "Violating Part 1: Willie Hutch Samples"

  1. Willie Hutch, “Ain’t That”

    Freeway, “Mellow”

  2. Most appreciated.

    I’d probably have to put down the Hospital love theme flip from Biggie’s debut as my favorite Hutch-sample-moment.

  3. good lookin’ Brooklyn!

    I am sorry that I chewed up your bandwidth but I had to listen to all those songs.

  4. Nah, no bandwidth bellyaching anymore.

    Coral is taking the brunt for most of the site’s downloads anyway.

  5. These tracks just remineded me how 3-6 and Paul are doin this whole “soul sample” thing better than Kanye himself…(Check that Gangasta Boo, Bun B, et al. “ridin and sippin” joint…i mean “junt”) kinda wish you woulda thrown Project Pat up there for the “I Choose You” sample, I know its obvious but THAT track was a match made in heaven.

  6. I think that Willie Hutch was a genius. Thats why everybody including me has sampled him. I used about 4 or 5 samples from willie already. And let me tell you, those are the beats my friends end up liking the most. RIP Willie

  7. 50 cent also used “I choose you” for his song “Pimpin Part 2”. But man, Willie Hutch made some great music R.I.P.

  8. You know alot of people really don’t understand the impact Willie Hutch’s music has had on hip hop today. So many of his songs are being sample by artists today but more so than others Three Six Mafia. Reason being Hutch’s music was sort of like the gangsta music of the 70’s. I mean think about how many times you’ve heard “the mack” sampled in a hip hop song. Sad to say though alot of youngstas out there now really have no idea who Willie Hutch is but they know the music when they here it.

  9. I do appreciate the downloads… But what is Willie saying in the chorus of the “love turned cold” sample. I know there’s a lot of discrepancy currently out here with 3-6 Maf’s lyrics, claiming that the part that is actually sampled from Willie, says something about lucifer being king. Willie’s track (and three 6’s for that matter) doesn’t sound anything like this to me, except for the middle part saying “you are king”. But towards the end of the track, it changes the first line to say, “you’re my queen”. So what exactly was this song about?


    — All-In    Mar 9, 01:33 AM   

  10. Let’s not forget the 9th track

    “Good Ol’ Love” for Masta Ace.

    (Hospital prelude of love theme/Give me some of that good old love)

    from the FOXY BROWN soundtrack he did.

  11. kanye west sampled the theme from the mack for poppin my collar for 3 six


    — Mally Mall    Apr 14, 07:13 PM   

  12. The theme for the mack wasn’t sampled for poppin my collar, it was used for “Testin My Gangsta”, and I doubt Kanye had anything to do with it.


    — All-In    May 15, 02:47 PM   

  13. “The Theme from The Mack” was used in both “Poppin’ My Collar” and “Testin’ My Gangsta”.

  14. If you want some hosting with no bullshit, holla at my man Kam via kamnet@yahoo.com and he’ll hook you up. I’ve worked with him for 10+ years now and he’s never done me foul.

  15. ~Grammy Awards Week~February 8, 2007. Tribute in Memory of Willie Hutch, The Biltmore Hotel, Los Angeles…Check out our website: www.williehutch.org “FROM THE HEART” His music lives on…..


    — Thelma    Jan 30, 01:56 AM   

  16. “Hospital Prelude to Love theme” is used in “Let me Luv U” by Jori Hulkkonen and “If things were perfect” by Moby
