Who sampled · 1990s · beginner crate
Eminem’s “My Name Is” (1998) is built on Labi Siffre’s “I Got The...” (1975) — a sample that travelled 23 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.
