For YEARS I’ve been trying to find the original song that has the melody of “I can feel it slowly drifting away from me”
Cudi did not make that up

Not saying he took it knowingly but for years I’ve been trying to remember what song it’s from and nobody online mentions they’ve that melody before

Anybody else certain it’s from another song? Pretty sure it’s a late 90s or early 00s song

For some reason it’s in my head as an Ace of base type song

1:00

There's also an instrumental cover of that song, from which Kanye got the idea for the beat

1:11

if biggie or pac spat any of those three verses they would be herald as some of the greatest in hip-hop.

brazy how slept on the track is outside of the Ye fandom.

Damnnn never heard this version

Right!?!? It doesn’t make sense. Every aspect of the song slaps. It’s literally even second in the Tracklist and still it’s slept on wtf

tell me about it man it's one of the best tracks i've ever listened to crazy it isn't popular with your conventional hip-hop heads.

One of my favorite Ye tracks period. One of my favorite hip hop track period.
