This is a thread noting the songs that other songs sampled from and give credit to the original song for the beat.

Pretty Ricky - Let Me Hold You sampled from Luther Vandross - If Only For One Night.

Puff Daddy - I'll Be Missing You sampled from The Police - I'll Be Watching You.

Vanilla Ice - Ice, Ice Baby sampled from David Bowie and Queen - Under Pressure.

I thought that the Vanilla Ice one didn't give credit to the original, stating that it had like one drum beat that was different or something.

MC Hammer - U can't touch this... isn't the beat taken from Super Freak?

Puff Dadd- Can't nodoby take my pride, can't nobody hold me down... i think that's an old beat

DMX- Ain't no sunshine.. This was an oldies song...with the beat

i can't even find an adjective do describe this, but it lies somewhere in the embarassingly unhip, stupid, irrelevant triangle
