Now, if only a good rapper did a song over it. Like a Wu-Tang Clan member.

Fuck, I'm at work... But I want to shit my pants at this.

They would probably use the original score.

Umm, no I don't think they would.

Wait, unless you're being sarcastic...

No, he's right. RZA's more into orchestretic type stuff. And DBZ's anime and influenced by Kung-Fu clips, so RZA would be all over it if he could afford to sample Japanese DBZ stuff.

The RZA is too busy making music for Afro Samurai anyways.

Isn't FUNi connected to Afro Samurai?

Eh, to say he sampled it is a stretch, IMO.

Yeah, it was only the intro, and that's about it.

[Budokai23]

The beginning sounded a lot alike but I have to agree that the rest of the song really didn't.

I'm the one who actually recorded the original Pikkon theme and to me it doesn't sound like Jeezy sampled it.

1) The low choir sound is missing
2) His sound has a harder attack to it than mine
3) Its a different key with different chords

It's remotely possible he processed the heck out of it to make it sound like that, but I doubt it. There's DBZ like synths all over that album (especially in "U Know What it is") that no-one would claim were samples from the show. For instance the eighth note arpeggio that comes sounds very DBZ to me but is clearly not a sample.

I'm the one who actually recorded the original Paikuhan theme and to me it doesn't sound like Jeezy sampled it.

Actually, the beginning part of the Pikkon song was sampled for the intro of the Jeezy song, but that's it.

The Moral of the story: Only the beginning of the Pikkon theme is sampled.

Well that was just fucking awful whatever it was based off of. I'm going to go rip my ears off now.

FUNimation holds the home video distribution rights to the Afro Samurai animated franchise.

Right, that's what people say and I disagree for the reasons stated above in my previous post.

[SSj_Rambo]

I'm sure this "sampling" can be much more accredited to either his producer or his mixer, since they are the ones who make money from finding/creating/promoting good beats (not that Jeezy doesn't too, but I'm sure he's focusing more on the lyrical aspect).

[VenomSymbiote]

Heh. I've noticed this for a long time now. I even put this as a note in the DBZ/LOG project I'm doing.
