In Eligh’s song, “To Angela”, he samples a piece of a song and the piece has the lyrics, “How I miss you.” It sounds like an older song. I cannot for the life of me figure out what song he sampled it from. Can someone pleeeease help me?
It’s definitely not T.I. Eligh’s underground, he don’t mess with mainstream.

1. DJ Premier
2. Marley Marl

Pete Rock
Large Professor

Madlib
The RZA
Dr. Dre
Showbiz (it was brought to my attention a while back that nobody was chopping samples like Showbiz, before Funky Technition and Return of the funky man without him no Primo, Pete Rock, everybody ect. ect. as we know them)

Help me I.D. a hip-hop song from 1990?
January 8th, 2010I was 18 in the fall of 1990, and down in South Carolina in the Army. Heard a song on the radio, and part of the chorus has stuck with me for 19 damn years, and I want to know the song:
Main clue: the chorus samples Chuck D. from Public enemy, saying “rhyme animal”…
The rapping is “lite rap”, a bit “new-jack-swingish” … the chorus starts with two girls in harmony, singing, and then then the Chuck D. sample comes in, then the girls, and it repeats.
I don’t how accurate my memory is, but I remember the chorus as:
“Don’t you know – [I'm a rhyme animal]
Don’t you know – that’s how I feel
Don’t you know – [I'm a - I'm a rhyme animal]
Don’t you know – that’s how I feel …”
Putting that into a lyrics search yields me “ZERO” results but I KNOW I’m not crazy … I want to see if that song was (in retrospect) cool, or really lame.
