Bound 2 samples Aeroplane (Reprise)

Kanye West’s “Bound 2” (2013) is built on Wee’s “Aeroplane (Reprise)” (1977) — a sample that travelled 36 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 intermediate crate, worth 2 points in party mode.
