About This Sample
Peter Gabriel's anxious art-rock track about losing grip on one's impulses was sampled for 'RoboCop' on 808s. Kanye softened Gabriel's intense percussion and layered Auto-Tuned vocals over the eerie synth textures, turning a song about psychological breakdown into a strangely tender plea to a smothering lover.
