MOG MOG

MUSIC SIGNPOSTS ON THE WEB'S LONELY ROAD

Artist:
Track: Headbanger - (featuring Redman/K-Solo)
(128)

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.

Discerning funkateers will also note this keyboard sample from Parliament

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.

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!)

Hey Cody it's good that the pool was spared. The kid in me wants to fly from that fence into the pool.

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?

I'm jealous of your backyard. How did the landlord "fix" your tree?

Cody B says:

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!

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"

You prove again and again that your crates are much deeper than mine. I must have slept on Original Concept.
