I thought this was sort of interesting so figured I'd make a half butt post about it.
Ready or Not Here I Come (Can't Hide from Love) by the Delfonics was a song that came out in 1968.
This song has been massively influential through music history, being sampled and covered by various artists since then
Most people probably remember The Fugees version of this song. It came out in 1996 and was massively popular (as was their album).
This song also samples Boadicea by Enya. She considered suing them for this, but decided not to after contacting them.
Anyways, back to Ready or Not.
The Jackson 5 did a cover of this song
As well as Johnny Osbourne - a famous jamaican reggae and dancehall singer
As for who has sampled this song. The list is extensive
https://www.whosampled.com/The-Delfonics/Ready-or-Not-Here-I-Come-(Can%27t-Hide-From-Love)/sampled/
Notable ones (excluding the aforementioned fugees)
Missy Elliot
50 Cent
T.I. (TWICE)
once with Nelly
and solo
MadLib
Mary J Blige
Ice-T (this is dope tbh)
And my personal favorite Three Six Mafia (actually mary j blige was probably just sampling this)
Anyways, I just thought it was interesting that that one song from 1968 was used so much in all this different shit.
The whosampled list is fricking crazy. So I posted about it.
This all started because I was listening to three six mafia. I think they're one of the dopest/most underrated groups of all time.
And they're really fascinating because of their heavy involvement with ICP and just the fact that they've been putting out music on and off for 20 years.
DJ Paul and Koopsta Knicca at one point formed a 'supergroup' with ICP called The Killjoy Club and released an album called Reindeer games.
And 36 makes frequent appearances at the gathering of the juggalos and shit like that. It's crazy.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

I have friends on the internet, but I don't have them in real life.
But I don't care, I'm cooler than them all
Mom, I'm not gay, are you stupid?
No need for 3D, I have dakimakura
The guys from the yard laugh, the children point their fingers at me
I won't wash myself, they won't wait
Waifu looks proudly from the backpack
Mom, dad, cat, dog, aunt, uncle, Trump, Obama
Everyone envy me because I...
I watch anime, I'm very cool, mom, look, I'm like Naruto
I watch anime, I'm very cool, mom, look, I'm a kitty
I watch anime, I'm very cool, mom, look, I'm like Naruto
I watch anime, I'm very cool, mom, look, I'm a kitty
Even after 50 years I will tell my grandchildren (what?)
What kind of successful shit-cutter is your grandfather (yes)
Joyful, I look at the calendar, I sold the medal
Dressed as Naruto, I'm rushing to the festival
Whether you burst or burst, anime comes first
Whether you burst or burst, anime comes first
Whether you burst or burst, anime comes first
Even if you burst, even if you burst
I watch anime, I'm very cool, mom, look, I'm like Naruto
I watch anime, I'm very cool, mom, look, I'm a kitty

Really fun to listen to in the background if you like melodic techno / progressive house. Apparently there was also supposed to be a vid with this one, but she wasn't happy with the result.
