About This Sample
Nina Simone's meditative ballad — a late-career reflection on fame and solitude — was sampled on BULLY. This marks the third time Kanye has drawn from Simone's catalog, a body of work whose emotional intensity and political conviction has proven an inexhaustible resource for his production across multiple eras.
