Syl is the man, born in Mississippi he started jamming in the 50's before recording with Federal Records then onto Twinight and eventually onto Hi Records by the end of the 60's. Syl has been sampled by too many Hip Hop artists including Wu-Tang, Kool G Rap, RJD2, Michael Jackson, Public Enemy, Cypress Hill...you get the picture. Check out some of my favourites, I call this rusty soul...

Don't Do It

That's Just My Luck

Is It Because I'm Black

Different Strokes

Bustin' Up Or Bustin' out

I Hear The Love Chimes

Concrete Reservation

Steppin' Out

Walk A Mile In My Shoes

Take Me To The River

I'm Yours

Lady Ann - Deep Shadows (1989 reissue)

Out on Timmion Records on limited LP release, as sampled below is a dope album of rare Detroit 60's soul. Wow.

1 Deep Shadows

2 Possession

3 Who Are You Trying To Fool

4 Sweep It Out In The Shed

5 What Should I Do

6 Lean Lanky Daddy

7 I Got To Have You

8 The Smile On Your Face

9 Who Are You Trying To Fool (Instrumental Version)

Blundetto - Lonely Is The Night (2010)

A wicked bootleg from Blundetto, sampling Lady Ann - Deep Shadows, this tune is simply stunning.

De La Soul - I Be Blown' (1989)

This is one of the tunes we used to have crazy hot-boxes to back in the day. Marvin, Dylan, Pauly, Karl, Ed-g and I packed into my Ford Cortina Mk1 that we more often than not parked down South Titirangi Rd, rolled the windows up and had a big smoke! Brings me joy everytime I listen it. Check the ol' girl herself having a bit of fun above.

Maggie Thrett - Soupy (1965)

So here we have the classic funk tune Soupy sampled by De La Soul in Jennifa Taught Me (Derwins Revenge) in '89.

Syl Johnson - Concrete Reservation (1970)

I'm a huge Syl fan, he has soo many dope tracks, sampled by too many artists over the years. RJD2 in this case used it to great effect. Check It.

Jneiro Jarel - Balada 45 (Like A Brazilian Girl) (2010)

This one goes out to my Brazilian bro, Bobby Brazuka. From you I gained my love for latin music. Dope remix of Arthur Verocai's classic. Check It.

Kool G Rap, Quincy Jones & Bill Cosby - Ill Street Burrs (Hayden Brown remix)

So here we have a fresh version of a classic Golden Age rhyme from Kool G Rap and DJ Polo - Ill Street Blues, sampled from a classic funk break by Joe Williams - Get Out My Life Woman. Check It, It's OG and it's Sample. What I love bout Hip Hop right here!

Jiggy Djé & SirOJ - Hey DJ! (2010)

Another Menahan St sampled nugget (Montego Sunset). The vocal's strong strong in a Netherland's twang, dope nonetheless. Check it and it's OG.

Billy Blue - Fresh From Head 2 Toe (2010)

So where's all the Hip Hop at? Here it is!!! We have a Menahan St Band sampling bomb (The Traitor) from Billy Blue (Billy who?) but it's a banger! Check It and it's OG.
