Yes, I have been away. Vacations to Vermont and Israel, plus the ongoing job search have really cut down on my MOGlife, but I'm coming back. None of my notifications work and my recently playeds aren't tracking, so I'm not gonna be a good Mogger...but I will MOG! Missed youse.
The drums of a certain R&B song provide the rhythm of this EPMD track and along with the "TRAMP" vocal have been sampled into more than 50 hip hop songs.
I always had a soft spot for EPMD 'cause Erik and Parrish went to college in my hometown of New Haven,CT, where they undoubtedly found out that the best pizza in the world was now just a few miles away from the Southern Connecticut State University.
I'm not here to argue about pizza though. The question is, do you know the sampled song and artist? Check out Headbanger here and the drum loop isolated in comments.
Also from my summer vacation, here's a downed tree in my backyard from the great Brooklyn tornado of '07.

Here is the sample in raw form

and more drums from Roy C and the Honeydrippers
To be honest it sounds like only the tambourine from the loop above. So not only have I been neglecting MOG, but I'm pulling punches on my return post. My apologies.
My Trusted MOGs
Guess who's bizzack!! That song would be.......i believe............
Joe Tex's "Papa Was Too"
I'll post the track once when i get home from work and rip it off the record. I've totally been neglecting my mog because life has been rather hectic but i'm going to make an effort to trya nd hit y'all with some treats soon.
Peace. Wyzzie.
My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs
Woah Nelly! Hey Cody B! Hope your all rested from your vacation. Dude that pic of your back yard is kuhrazaee. Did you have to dispose of the tree? Welcome back!
My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs
Man i feel so out of the loop...What up Fistula!...i need to step my mog game up you guys are leaving me in the dust!
My Trusted MOGs
Where'd you go in Vermont? (I ask only cos certain parts of Vermont are five miles away and I would have bought you a beer if you'd let me know!)
My Trusted MOGs
Hey Jenny, I was in Lyndonville, Northeast Kingdom. Beautiful country!
My Trusted MOGs
Hey, Cody!
My Trusted MOGs
What up WyzeWon!
Hey Cody it's good that the pool was spared. The kid in me wants to fly from that fence into the pool.
My Trusted MOGs
Heh, Sam. The pool has seen some moments, including a woodstock-esque event with my boy and I am's 3 kids. Good Times!
My Trusted MOGs

My Trusted MOGs
vermont and israel is an interesting 2 step, cool
My Trusted MOGs
Hey Cody. Welcome back.
Thank God that tree fell in the direction it did. That could have been a lot worst. As for the pool, was that Woodstock or The Fringe Fest?

Are you still making for Philly on Saturday?
My Trusted MOGs
@ I am- I'm there. I wouldn't miss Philly. That is an incredible photo! Quest for Fire-esque!
My Trusted MOGs
Best news of the day, Cody!
My Trusted MOGs
I'm jealous of your backyard. How did the landlord "fix" your tree?
My Trusted MOGs
Hey TBoom: he just chopped it up. A few friends with a fireplace took some wood and the city took the rest. RIP Tree...but there is more room for whiffle ball now!
My Trusted MOGs
hey, cody. nice to see you around. i wouldnt have answered right to this one. cool post, as always. :-)
My Trusted MOGs
Redman's cerebral palsy line is so classic. I still don't see how you even recognize that drum sample under everything else that's going on in that song. Oh, and "welcome back, welcome back, welcome baaaaaaaack"
My Trusted MOGs
Thanks,T.P. As Michael Jackson once said..It's great to be here..which was sampled by Dr.Dre (the MTV host) and Ed Lovers crew, Original Concept..'member them?
My Trusted MOGs
You prove again and again that your crates are much deeper than mine. I must have slept on Original Concept.
