2669413, that ain't got SHIT to do with the fact that they jacked Chic's cut.

and for the record, Nile Rodgers has said he thought it was HIS shit the first time he heard it...


check the record, I think there was some legal shit behind that.



But MY point is this. Since the musicians are the end all to be all in this "why bother sampling" debate, why did they have to jack Chic? The band in question ( Wood, Brass, and Steel ) was dope enough to get nasty on some original shit ( see also: "Funkanova"), so why did they replay "Good Times"?


Simple answer:

It was a hot ass groove that everybody knew. AKA 'a sample'.


Your move, Maxxx...


( and you're buggin', dude. I'm more *Chicago* than ANYBODY you know, lol. You're mad because your boy is just about done.)
