Who sampled · 1990s · expert crate
The Notorious B.I.G.’s “I Got A Story To Tell” (1997) is built on Andreas Vollenweider (feat. Walter Keiser, Pedro Haldemann, Corin Curschellas)’s “Belladonna” (1983) — a sample that travelled 14 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 expert crate, worth 3 points in party mode.
