When it's not original synth riffs and vocal chants, most of the samples in Bmore club music are current rap hits (mostly crunk since the classic "I Don't Give A Fuck" remix; these days you're as likely to hear Lil Jon's voice on a club track as Rod Lee's, which is kind of annoying) and occasionally ancient R&B/pop ("Please Mr. Postman," "Charlie Brown," etc), but a lot of producers have odd senses of humor and make club tracks out of the weirdest/silliest pop culture detritus. It's hard to keep up with who does what, most of the time I hear it on the radio, and even on a lot of mix CD's the producers of the individual tracks aren't credited, but I put the artist/title for the ones I know:
1. Morris Day saying "let's have some asses wigglin', I want some perfection" in Purple Rain
2. the Barney "I Love You, You Love Me" song
3. Chuck Berry's "My Ding-A-Ling" (Technics - "Ding-A-Ling")
4. a little girl singing to the tune of "Get Low": "to the window, to the kitchen, I put hot sauce on my chicken, aww yo breath is kickin'"
5. a guy re-singing the Big Pun "Pakinamak" skit (King Tut - "Back of the Ack")
6. "Uncle Fucker" from the South Park movie (Samir - "Uncle Fucker")
7. the guy from Chappelle's Show saying "I'm rich, bitch" (Technics - "I'm Rich")
8. Redd Foxx saying "you big dummy" (Rod Lee - "You Big Dummy"
9. William Hung singing "She Bangs"
10. that Eamon song
Labels: Baltimore club, Debonair Samir, lists, Rod Lee
