You might want to do a little research…

oops!

I guess you’re right AumRa, he’s not a contributor, just the victim of thievery. Without others people’s music to use what would those “artists” put their amazing beats and rhymes over.

I say that in a semi-joking fashion but in all seriousness can you not acknowledge the source material?

lover of life, above, said it best. The hate that people have for Bob James is entirely misplaced, as well as irrational. Quincy Jones is no hack and he brought Bob James to prominence. I think that says it all to me.

Thank you to Michael.Warrick (above) for producing that list of tracks that sampled “Nautilus”, and if you want to hear a new interpretation of the song, go to YouTube and search for Nicolay.

I found this site because for about two weeks now I have been listening to a new mix tape by DJ LRM which features a song called “Its Like That” by D-Block f.k.a. the Lox. And of course I recognized the sample used for it immediately however I too had no idea what song was being sampled. The first song that popped into my mind was “Brothas on my Jock” by EPMD. One of the two songs on the ‘Business As Usual’ album that featured Redman before his first solo album was realeased, by the way (the other was Hardcore) . I love that song. I know Red’s verse by heart but will spare you all a rendition.

Anyways, so about a week after listening to this LRM mixtape and really digging it, I approached one of my co-workers who is also a huge hip-hop fan and asked him if he knew the original sample. The only other song we could come up wth was “Daytona 500″. That provoked me to look up that song on wikipedia.org which listed “Nautilus” as one of the sample sources. I plugged that information into google and found you guys here.

I am so glad that I did. It is amazing that I am catching up to a conversation that began over 3 years ago and still has relevance.

I am going to now do two things
1) do some reasearch on Bob James
2) began to add this website into my cycle of regularly visited places.

Thank you all for your contributions. As an enterprising DJ and musician I look at everyday as a learning experience because the more I look and dig and investigate, the more is revleaed to me. Thanks for helping to continue my education.

Cheers!
