Twista & Tres' new song, Oh sampled the GREATEST GET THE DRAW'RS ANTHEM OF THE 80'S, "Tonight" by Ready for the World. I heard it the first time on the radio like YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH RIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGHT! But its cool.
Thougths?
Ooooh. So that's Ready for the World. I'd never heard of them until Kanye put out "Slow Jamz". When I first heard it, I was like "yeah right" too, cuz I recognize that sample from a song that probably only came out in Atlanta, around 1996. "That's Right" by DJ Taz (and Raheem the Dream?)
(girl sings) That's riiiight. That's roiii-e-oiii-e-i-i-ight. Party people (UH!) on the floor (C'MON!), all we do is give ya more. That's Riiiight. (THAT'S RIGHT!) That's Roiii-e-iiii-e-i-i-ight.
What y'all know about that? What y'all know bout that BellBivDevoeSoSoDefCarlMo remix? What y'all know about that! *vein pops, tim falls out*
