Who sampled · 2010s · intermediate crate
Jay Rock’s “Hood Gone Love It (feat. Kendrick Lamar)” (2011) is built on The Pointer Sisters’s “Easy Days” (1975) — 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.
