Yippi Cola Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 I did a forum search about this guy and nothing came up, so I'm guessing most of you have never heard of him, sssoooo... A while back this Oklahoma rapper called TKO Capone did this song in which he sampled a clean guitar line from the Opeth song Credence. I thought it was a rather interesting use of a song from such a different genre, but it worked surprisingly well in this new context too. I know, what on Earth does this have to do with LP? Well, today I decided to take a look at the guy's other uploads as well, and I found not one, but two videos that sample Linkin Park songs. Interestingly enough, one of them is actually labeled as containing a Metallica sample, but in reality it is built upon No More Sorrow's opening guitar melody. And while the Opeth one worked out just fine, I don't think these two do so. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipees Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Nothing new.. A lot of rap artists takes samples from another songs.

Coizu Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 This reminds me at the German rapper Bushido. He's not using Linkin Park samples but I guess he likes their videos :-D I have no idea how I put the embedded player in here... The BB Code Help isn't much of a help...
