Who sampled · 2010s · beginner crate
Ariana Grande’s “7 rings” (2019) is built on Mary Martin & Patricia Leway’s “My Favorite Things” (1959) — a sample that travelled 60 years to get there. In SAMPLE SAMPLE SAMPLE we spin the original and ask you to name the hit that flipped it. This one lives in the beginner crate, worth 1 point in party mode.
