This is a collection of songs that have been used as samples in various hip-hop songs.

Listening to this playlist you will inevitably find yourself saying "Hey, where have I heard that before again?!" This is part of the beauty of hip-hop. Listening to Bobby Caldwell's "Open Your Eyes", and then realising what a perfect job Dilla did on the classic Common song "The Light". It's simply proof that chopping up samples can be a work of art, not plagiarism.
