Didn't it turn out to not actually be a sample though? I think they used a word with the prefix "re" to describe what it actually is, but I can't think of what that word is right now.

If it was a lame rapper, it would bother me, but Wu-Tang are like the Beatles of rap, so it seems fitting.

Also, I doubt this is gonna be anyone's first exposure to the Beatles. It's not as if they're using a Left Banke sample or something.

"The statement that we made yesterday was incorrect and we apologize for any confusion it may have caused. We DID NOT sample the Beatles, I repeat, we DID NOT sample the Beatles, rather we did an INTERPOLATION of the classic George Harrison composition 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps.' In a historic collaboration, Dhani Harrison, son of George, through his friendship with the RZA, played guitar on the song and he himself helped secure the REUSE LICENSE. Also appearing on the song are John Frusciante, guitar player for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Erykah Badu singing the chorus.

Oh yeah, it was an "inter" word, not a "re" one.

I'd be interested in hearing what he does with a Beatles sample as long as it was bass heavy and had Shabazz The Disciple or a 1995 era Cappadonna ripping it to shreds like he did on "Winter Warz".

Fuck yeah.  Rza the razor hit you with the major.  This album will (hopefully) kill it.

I was just thinking about making a topic about the Paul Mccartney death clues. I'm too lazy, but someone else should do it.

Why do people think rap and the beatles go together?  It just ruins the beatles.
