Hey Hip hop know-it-alls. Help me out!

[HEyHEY]

I posted this last night too.

I'm trying to find this tune that has like horns and stuff in it. It's new I think and the horn song is kinda like something the tijaunna brass would have done. The horn part is kinda the chorus and it souonds like it could be j-5 or something. Anyone know it?

4. AHA! It's remix to "Java"

Still looking for the rap verison

[TroubleMan]

5. There's a lot of rap that has jazz in it....especially mid-90's

I can name nearly all of the rap songs, but I'm not familiar with "Java." (other than when referencing coffee and computers)


Who was the artist who made Java?

One I know the artist, I'll be able to hear a sample of it on mp3.com or amazon.com, then I'll be able to tell you the corresponding rap song that sampled it.

6. al hirt and herb alpert

7. The 2nd track on this page?

listen to the sample.

[HEyHEY]

8. The fourth track yeah

[TroubleMan]

9. I'm not sure on that one, but De La Soul and The Roots have sampled

Al Hirt a few times.


I'll keep thinking about it....I'm sure it will pop in my head eventually.

10. Give me some more help on this:

Is the rap song upbeat and fast like Java?

Does it use a long sample or a short sample?

Also....your not talking about Fantasia by Us3 are you?

It's the 1st song on this page:

Also, if you like jazz and rap, this is one of my favorite combinations of it:

(listen to track 11)

[HEyHEY]

11. Nope...

In the first thread you showed me you listened to "Java" right?

It's that tune, a sample of the main hook and it[s used as a chorus in the tune

[TroubleMan]

12. Yeah, I listened to it but...

I can't think of a rap song with a chorus like that.

I haven't been keeping up with rap in the last few years, so if it's new, I might not know it. If it's 80's or 90's rap, I should know it.

[HEyHEY]

13. I think it's fairly new

thanks for trying though!
