Bink must have felt like an absolute genius when he first put this together

[mayogrease]

It makes me wanna cry knowing how well Bink connected those chops. Fucking seamless

[TheBfree]

Just a reminder that when Bink played this in a beat battle, he lost. That’s the craziest thing about this to me.

[shalee]

These transitions are so damn smooth and effortless.

[JB-orke]

This is one of the best sample ever made in my opinion.

[gjkoyr]

The most kanye sounding beat and it ain’t even produced by him😞

[ghostryda]

The fact Blink! chopped the bass perfectly

[alex_harnar_]

(0:29) So hypnotic, and beautiful. It feels like I’m drowning in a pool of sparkling lavender.

[sylvistream]

It can’t be just me that always heard Smokey saying “Jason Derulo” LOL

[shayaanrk]

Mike Dean elevated this sing to a whole new level. The sample was fire in itself but the piano and guitar added super emotions to the song. That along with one of the greatest rap verses by Kanye and Rick Ross.

This song makes you feel like a king

[billiamsharpe]

Bink killed this. This is fire even without the breakdown

[NEntertainment_]

the ability..the gift.. to be able to hear a song and pick it apart and reconstruct it into another masterpiece.... wow

[stunninplaya]

I would've cried if i made this beat omg

[EashanKotha]

This song is so beautiful, the whole album is beautiful. Such a joy to see the breakdown of this song!!

[theboulevard]

The energy in that room production. Then Ye/Rick laying down their vocals. This is hip hop brilliance.

[ror]

I can hear Kanye’s “I love it tho” 🔥🔥🔥

[AaronToThe]

Someone’s gotta do a book on all the different sampling techniques. Look at the similarities between the chops here and wusyaname. So dope

[cwason]

Best beat of all time. Best song of all time!

[slackstarfish]

Probably the best sample chop of all time. Extremely simple but unbelievably effective

[kspade]

Still my favorite sample to date. Sometimes I listen to just the instrumental to put my mind at peace. If this isn't soulful then I don't know what is. I love music
