Under The Influence samples Give In To Me

Eminem’s “Under The Influence” (2000) is built on Michael Jackson’s “Give In To Me” (1991) — a sample that travelled 9 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.
