HEAVEN TO ME samples Heaven

Tyler, The Creator’s “HEAVEN TO ME” (2023) is built on John Legend’s “Heaven” (2006) — a sample that travelled 17 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.
