infinity (888) samples The Peacocks

XXXTENTACION feat. Joey Bada$$’s “infinity (888)” (2018) is built on Bill Evans Trio featuring Stan Getz’s “The Peacocks” (1996) — a sample that travelled 22 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.
