Who sampled · 2000s · intermediate crate
JAŸ-Z’s “Song Cry” (2001) is built on Bobby Glenn’s “Sounds Like a Love Song” (1976) — a sample that travelled 25 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 intermediate crate, worth 2 points in party mode.
