About This Sample
Brand Nubian's golden-age boom-bap classic, built on an Edie Brickell sample, was a touchstone of conscious hip-hop's early 90s peak. Its sampling in the Vultures era reflects Kanye's ongoing dialogue with hip-hop history, pulling threads from the genre's jazz-rap foundations into his late-career maximalism.
