How deep in the crates and expansive is your music mind to know this and use it, also they had to be high when they created this, the original is so dope though

That’s been sampled a lot but dion was in her bag on this record

Madlib flipped the shyt out of this Black Ivory joint. I honestly think he's the master at it. Too many songs where I look up the sampled source and end up vibing with original. I'd rank Dilla and Alchemist a notch beneath but arguably they're right there with him.
....



Honorable mention:

It’s not said enough how alchemist is so dope as a beat maker

I can’t remember but that song of Gil Scott heron from the “pieces of a man” album that Kanye sampled for late registration “home is where the hatred is” flip

A lot of Gil Scott shyt go today especially “the revolution will not be televised”
