Who sampled · 2010s · beginner crate
Future’s “Mask Off” (2017) is built on Carlton Williams’s “Prison Song” (1974) — a sample that travelled 43 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 beginner crate, worth 1 point in party mode.
