In today's video, we're looking at strange samples in the world of rap music. Sampling is an artform in itself, hip-hop is a gigantic umbrella that contains a magnitude of different subcategories, and when you combine those things... you're bound to have a few crazy examples. Comment down below with some of your favorite cases!

Em and Dido mashup is one the best samples and collaboration ever..it’s such a classic to me. Will always love it.

TM88 really is a funny producer, cause not only did he RE-sample that Miku song for Future's 712PM, but he was ALSO the one who added the Minecraft sound effects to XO Tour Llif3

I never met anyone who thought that Africa by Toto was 'corny' or 'embarrassing'

Hey, heads up, you shouldn't only credit the Vocal Synth (such as Miku) used when referring to a song using them. Vocaloids and other Vocal Synths are simply a virtual instrument with a culture around them, credit should be given to the producer as well. Lack of credit to the producer is disrespectful, and a big problem in the community. As a previous comment said, the producer of Data 2.0 is Aura Qualic.

Nah, Africa by Toto is a classic. And I don't agree with your take about "Africa" being a narrow minded view of the continent of Africa. It's actually the complete opposite. Toto are very much aware of their lyrics meaning. Jeff Porcaro has even stated that the song is about ‘a white boy’ who is ‘trying to write a song on Africa, but since he’s never been there, he can only tell what he’s seen on TV or remembers in the past.’ And I don't see anything wrong with that. And I've literally never heard anyone call the song corny or embarrassing. For me its one of the biggest and best representations of 80s music. But to each their own I guess.

Eminem has also used an even more insane sample than Dido. Good Guy features a sample of a COVER of a song from the TOKYO GHOUL soundtrack of all things

another favorite is Kendric's sample of Beach House's Silver Soul on money trees, not really because the sample is strange or doesn't make sense but because I'd never have known without being told despite loving both songs

one of the most unexpected samples i've ever heard in the genre is easily the hilarious sample that appears halfway through "Patrisse Cullors Stole My Lunch Money" by Ghais Guevara. I was in hysterics the first time i heard that beat switch

I just want to add this for those who don't know... For that Kill Jill one, the Hatsune Miku sample actually came from the song "DATA" bu Aura Qualic and it's actually available as a usable project file packaged with FL Studio.

For the two African American men in Paris song, as a kid I didn’t know that was Will Farrell in that skit and have never seen Balde of Glory, so in my mind I thought it was like 2 guys listening to the song itself and when the other guy “no one knows what means” yada yada I thought it was suppose to be how the guy in the song stopped the song himself to comment on it and Will says his thing because he was actually digging the song. I don’t know why I thought that, but it was just my imagination going.

I was expecting you to mention 50 Cent - Piggy Bank, which samples Soviet pop singer Alla Pugacheva's song “Shakespeare's Sonnet 90”. How often do Soviet songs get sampled?

The gentle giant sample on "strange ways" by Madlib and MF DOOM is a great one too

NAS sampling O Fortuna was both totally on brand and unexpected. It was taking a recognizable sample Bad Boy gimmick to a new level. Too bad it never really developed into a subgenre of its own. Imagine hip hop records sampling Stockhausen or Boulez.

One tiny correction: Eminem didn't sample the chorus of Dido's "Thank You". He samples the first verse! The Chorus goes: "I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life". And that's the genius of this sample. Taking not the chorus but this verse. Also the mood of the verse is very depressive when the chorus really is an ode to that significant other that lights up Dido's world. P.S. Jason Derulo recently showed on "Love sucks" how to not use the same sample.

One of my favorite samples is when K-OS sampled California by Phantom Planet in their song On the Run. I really love it because the song on the run sounds like it's coming from the perspective of someone who listened to California several times but never really understood the lyrics till they lived it. I also loved how J. Cole sampled Bad thing by Cults because the sample gives the song an eerie feel and I also like how he left out the creepy recording part.

when it comes to unexpected samples JPEGMAFIA comes up in my mind. ODB is famous rapper but the way JPEG used ODB's screaming sample was unexpected af.

Surprised Peggy and Danny aren't here, their latest collab is just insane when it comes about sampling. Heck, Danny and specially Jpegmafia both have insane samples by their own.
