7. Twista “Overnight Celebrity” (2004)
Album: Kamikaze
Miri Ben-Ari, the Israeli hip-hop violinist, was finally getting some serious mainstream attention at this point, having caught the eyes of both Jay and ‘Ye. She plays a central role in both the track itself as well as the music video, which also has cameos from Chicago legends like Cold Hard (of Crucial Conflict) and Da Brat. This track, however, marked the beginning of the end of Kanye’s use of high-pitched samples, which I’m sure we would all be sick of by now if he hadn’t stopped. Check out the sample, Lenny Williams’ love song “Cause I Love You,” as well as the Miri Ben-Ari solo album that came out a year later: The Hip-Hop Violinist.

really? the takeover as number 1? smh
i’m not reading 26 different pages for what’s spose to be 1 fkin list! greedy bastards just want ad-view money.
I think this is accurate list with the exception of a few tracks( spend the night-marey carey, wouldn’t get far- game, a star is born- jay z )
Too lazy to go through whole list, but Through The Wire should at least be in top 5
Very nice list! Ya’ll shoulda put Camron’s Dead Or Alive, Do Or Die’s Paid the Price, Freeway-Hear The Song.
This track isn’t a Bette Midler sample, they had to recreate it in order to clear. 5iveit
All I know is “Through The Wire” and “Down”(Cam’Ron) are some energetic azz beats
Do Or Die – Higher was one of my favorites
An 88 Keys list would be awesome
