I mean, we are halfway through the decade...

Inspired by ktt2.com/what-are-the-best-sonically-composed-songs-since-2020-32588882/1#post-53875849

in a somewhat reverse preferred order (1st to 7th)

A song from a Ridge Racer video game soundtrack -> JPEGMAFIA - BALD!

A 70's Korean disco song -> Yves Tumor - Gospel For A New Century

A Japanese citypop song -> The Weeknd - Out of Time

A music anime OST -> death's dynamic shroud - Just to Be Needed

A lover's rock/reggae song -> Tyler the Creator - I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO DANCE

idk what this sample is but it's f***ing MENACING -> Armand Hammer - Ni--ardly (Blocked Call)

A kpop song from 2010 -> nano神社 (✪㉨✪) - Van-sama summer holiday

Post yours! (WhoSampled is good for looking up sample sources btw)

how could i forget

A Tems song from 2020 -> Future - WAIT FOR U

Don't really care about jpegmafia nowadays but that Ridge Racer sample is dope af

it's such an impressive sample flip that the actual Japanese composer of the game OST gave his approval and praise to Peggy directly in the comments of that YT video and the BALD! music video

this is cool

the fact that I thought about including something from Kendrick and genuinely went "nah he didn't really sample anything off Mr. Morale" and somehow forgot about THP5 makes me want to delete this entire thread omfg excellent pick

seriously, the way the violin strings are emphasized in the Kendrick version still make me emotional

also I was thinking of including this Her Loss song but i legit don't know if the opening is a sample or not

One of my favourite beats Kendrick's ever rapped on and one of my fav songs ever

much love @op for being inspired by my thread

kinda wish this song was longer, ends right when i was getting into it

the Bald! sample is so crazy. I loved Ridge Racer Type 4 as a kid

so be it pt. 1
