Who sampled · 1990s · beginner crate
Ruthless Records’s “Nuthin' But A "G" Thang” (1992) is built on Leon Haywood’s “I Want'a Do Something Freaky To You” (1975) — a sample that travelled 17 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.
