yeah this was the assumption for the longest time......before the internet blew up those types of urban legends would be free to run wild.

i think that rumor started not just because of how those plucks or whatever sounded, but also the chinese water torture theme in the video (which got a lot of burn back in the day on BET). i always put 2+2 together when i was a kid and thought the lead sound was water drops too:russ::snoop:

I still wish somebody could track down the samples for "Bring It On." One of the best beats on Reasonable Doubt. :mjcry:
I've been trying to find this for over a decade now :mjcry:

I would love to hear Preme's story about how he find this song and what made him wanna sample it and flipped it Nas is like beat. :wow:
He did an interview about 10 years ago or so about it. He said he was cleaning and throwing away records and found a Lutheran record or something with a pink fish on it. He put it on and discovered it. This was the most sought after sample in hip hop from 99 to about 2008. When it was discovered my life was complete lol.
