- irfanmp, on 09/15/2008, -3/+30There's another really good song by a completely unknown rapper (Benefit) who sampled the original Super Mario Brothers theme song. He has no Wikipedia page but here is what a quick Google search turned up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ml6FNJAiH8I
- elnerdo, on 09/16/2008, -1/+26I apologize right now for posting a ytmnd, but it's too appropriate to pass up.
http://snoopkirby2.ytmnd.com/ - itsJALbert, on 09/15/2008, -2/+25Oh come on. How can they leave out "We Gs" with Kool G Rap going in over the FF7 battle music?

- vtbarrera, on 02/03/2009, -3/+14Hellbound is freakin' awesome.
- galv0, on 09/16/2008, -0/+10I thought it was funny :-/
- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -0/+10I'm surprised nobody sampled the Battletoads pause music.
- laplie, on 09/16/2008, -2/+11Half people I've heard of/half people registering "0" on the fame scale.
Is it just me? - Tostito, on 09/16/2008, -0/+8Wow, I must agree. That was pretty awesome.
- HarryRag, on 09/16/2008, -0/+7You obviously don't know anything about hip-hop.
- zewm, on 09/16/2008, -0/+7Fame does not dictate talent.
- PikkonX, on 09/16/2008, -0/+6That was the first song I thought of. I'm surprised it wasn't on the list.
- ran24, on 09/16/2008, -0/+6It's on the honorable mentions list at the bottom at least
- inactive, on 09/16/2008, -0/+5a rraaaam paam paaaaamm

i spit hot faya - sny1120, on 09/16/2008, -0/+5we half
- WiretapStudios, on 09/16/2008, -2/+6I'm a hip hop junkie (and former dj) and most of these are terrible. I did used to spin the Cocoa Brovaz super mario one, especially the instrumental. In the edit version they have the coin and power up sounds over the curse words, that amused me as well.
- RegalBegal, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4Probably not. His loss. Sampling and beat making is an art and and instrument unto itself.
- smbober, on 09/16/2008, -2/+6This list could also be called the Top 8 songs that I have never heard of. :)
- LeonHRodriguez, on 09/16/2008, -0/+4R.I.P. Dilla
- mustache, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3my boy from Tallahassee!
- pepemt, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3so glad Eternal is on the list.
Best Video Game sample ever imo
you can hear it really well in the beginning: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrlODuSFHkU - WreckRoom, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3Yuh too close!
- briLo, on 09/16/2008, -1/+4Chorus: Let me tell you about the Proto Culture
If you don't know the culture, here's the whole structure
We've had enough of the lackluster-trust us
We get the kind of games you can't rent at Blockbuster
KU: Game related, raise it bit by bit
Yo D, link up the cable we'll go hit for hit
Phantasma plasma particle beam means I have ya
on the run-the rendered effects hot like magnas
Del: I play games by Capcom with a power glove strapped on O
n any platform, I don't spend my dough on Phat Farm
Video games, I got many to play
Before my life expires; fufill my desires
KU: Mastering your hardest boss
Shattering all stars across
Ain't hard to cross the finish line
Floatin' on Daytona
Wex, Gex or Kloana, we get ‘em all at cost
RPG, Platform we transform like Macross
Del: Rival schools, Batsu
Purchase you ought to
It came with one free CD, it's like I bought two
I hope they make part II for Dreamcast
‘Cause games I've seen in mags, you won't believe they have!
KU: Getting callouses turning over asteroids
Graviton bombs destroyed
Getting moms annoyed
Now I'm hacking Nightmare Creatures
Their features splattered across the screen
It gets more clean each year
Del: I remember my homie Ed Coats had the most
A Colecovision-every week I'd visit
Playing Donkey Kong Jr., Venture, Rock and Rope
Games I thought was dope
While my moms was watching soaps
KU: I'm on the next level
I got a double barrel shotgun in the Doomworld
Waiting on the next devil
Armor's low-check the arsenal
Rupture the main conductor playin Disruptor
Del: I remember Ninja Gaiden
Finished finally
With Ramone wouldn't answer the phone
This was before getting blown
I own the first Nintendo Power
With the maps of Zelda Help me conquer in an hour
Chorus: Let me tell you about the Proto Culture
If you don't know the culture, here's the whole structure
We've had enough of the lackluster-trust us
We get the kind of games you can't rent at Blockbuster
(2X)
Del: Hey KU you know my SEGA collection is massive
Got all the past hits and classics
Herzog Zwei now Panzer Zwei
Originality that made me a fan today
KU: It's Pandemonium-it's like Toys R Us
Flippin the next Saturn game brings out the boys in us
It's poisonous
Taking out the boys in blue in Grand Theft Auto,
Snatch a Rolls Royce to use
Del: Yeah, I'll admit Playstation improved
Come visit Feudal Japan with me and Tenchu
Bushido Blade 2 with sword play so accurate
Mega Man Legends but I had to buy a map for it.
KU: I fence Hyo to get a Neo-Geo
For Samurai 64 in full rendered splendor
Rival counter and enter my sword in his innards
My joint was being Leonardo wuppin' on Splinter
Del: I gotta get Xenogears-that's the type of game that relieves my fears
Get it from overseas to here
I gotta get Psychic Force
Authentic arcade that I can endorse
They got me liking imports
KU: I'll need to be at the next E3,
What's the next CD I need to see
Me and D signing checks
Let's float overseas, mingle with game companies
Giving tips to Capcom and Sega-you can't front on these
Del: To anyone who knew me better
Know I chose Saturn first Cause it's 2-D heaven
Bernie Stolar dropped the ball with the RAM cartridge
X-men Vs. Streetfighter could've expanded the market
KU: Marvel Vs. Capcom-beyond fathom
Tell the truth, Playstation ain't ready to have ‘em
Come on I'll bring the onslaught
Alpha and Omega
Khaos Unique brought to you by SEGA.
Chorus: Let me tell you about the Proto culture
If you don't know the culture, here's the whole structure
We've had enough of the lackluster-trust us
We get the kind of games you can't rent at Blockbuster - RegalBegal, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3Percee P?
- pmgauthier, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3I agree for the most part, but did you happen to listen to Oh No? He's Madlib's bro and quite ill indeed.
Dr. No's Oxperiments was one of the best experimental albums released in the past year. Awesome production and some unreal beats. - kiylyou, on 09/16/2008, -0/+3Best video game song ever.
Quote:
It's 1986 I'm in the first grade
I'm workin really hard to get Mario laid
I gotta save the Princess
so he can get the pussy
Believe me, Mario would get that ass
so ***** Luigi
Mario really wants to get her in bed
So bad that he's bustin up bricks with his head
He just wants sex, so forget the wedding bells
Jumpin on little mushrooms and turtle shells
Droppin down green pipes and secret passage ways
Makin his move to the end
where the final castle lays
Eat a magic mushroom grow a little higher
Eat a white flower and spit balls of fire
All these creatures that attack him
Cut Mario slack
Oh ***** hold on I'll be right back
I'm gonna beat the game if it takes me all summer
It's gotta be hard to get laid if you're a plumber
That's why I'm gonna work extra hard for my man
And get him to the end
so he can stop using his hand
Mario doesn't wanna get hit he'll shrink
Princess won't ***** a little kid, I think
So stay grown and attend to your own
And eventually the Princess will attend to your bone - sfh1182, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2No love for Charles Hamilton? He's got a bunch of songs that sample Sonic the Hedgehog.
- pbone, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2on madvillians' madvilliany they use samples from street fighter 2.
- aph252, on 09/16/2008, -1/+3check this one... "Game Time" by phat kat, produced by J Dilla. Sample is Mortal Kombat
http://hypem.com/track/595957/Phat+Kat-Game+Time+( ... - ChocChunkOaties, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2All the programmers are using the ultra trendy SID station now anyway so they pretty much all sound like old computer game music/effects.
- PearlJammzz, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2Am I the only one that is reminded of the first NBA Jam in Snoop Dogg's song 'Drop It Like It's Hot'? It only has a small ~5 second sample it plays a few times and plays before they switch rappers (Pharrell I believe) and at the beginning.
- Walldown, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2he probably makes this comment for any hip-hop that isn't Immortal Technique, Jedi Mind Tricks, or Non Phixion. Ready to swoop in at any chance to force his music choice upon us
- pyroglass, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2what about Mope by the Bloodhound Gang?
Not only did they sample Pac Man music, they even had Pac Man make an appearance on the song.
Hey Pac Man. What's Up?
Me you bitches, I'm high on Crack - edwardmluk, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2Except it's not SOAD. It's by a band called Rabbit Joint.
- q254, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2Uhh, it is, #7....
- niteskunk, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2You know there's a delete button now, right? Click edit and check it out...
- quibian, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2Umm.. I'm the author and I know exactly who Immortal Technique is... did he use a video game sample? I must have missed that one...
I know who Jedi Mind Tricks is, they sampled Max Payne for their song "The Wolf", but guess what? That song was wack!
And yes, I know about Non-Phixion, and everything from Def Jux... I guess they sampled Tetris for something, but I must have missed that one as well. - babyphatman, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2Are you kidding me???? That Percee P joint is fire!... your ghetto pass has been revoked.
- oopspoops, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2Swizz Beatz - It's Me Snitches?!?!!?!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28j6bgBvkDY
How could that be left off? - galv0, on 09/16/2008, -1/+3Try not posting the same comment twice in a row. Also, while Immortal Technique is sick (Jedi Mind is pretty good), there are a ***** of underground artists that I'd rather listen to.
Specifically Louis Logic, People Under The Stairs, Living Legends and any solo artist that came out of Living Legends, and Cunninlynguists.
That's enough for now. - Noxat, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2MC Chris The Tussin, samples Gauntlet on the NES.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6-XBTHiBHY - jrizzo, on 09/16/2008, -0/+2Metal rulez. Checkout Powerglove...it's a band dedicated to metal covers of video game songs:
http://www.imeem.com/tag/?f=music&q=artist:powergl ... - Witchdoktor, on 09/16/2008, -0/+1Terminator X to the Edge of Panic.
- jbmcb, on 09/16/2008, -0/+1Protoculture should have made it on the top 10 - the whole song is about video games - they reference Herzog Zwei for cryin' out loud, and Del is awesome.
- twoyups, on 09/16/2008, -0/+1Oh please. By your logic, Gregorian chant is the only legitimate genre.
- miggie, on 09/16/2008, -0/+1It 's not rap but LM.C did a song called John that has Mario's coin drop sound in it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xu13-IAG-AM - DarkoKun, on 09/16/2008, -0/+1If you like tracks with game samples you should check this guy out. http://www.myspace.com/dadorkgeniuz His lyrics are hilarious and he makes all his beats.
- Zenham, on 09/16/2008, -1/+2"YtCracker is like the ringleader for this new genre of hip-hop called Nerdcore."
Uhm, MC FRONTALOT YOU GROUPIE TARD!
Ahem. Sorry. -
