The Sample Trail
A crate-digging tour across five decades of music
Kanye's sampling is musicology in practice — taking Chaka Khan, Daft Punk, Nina Simone, and Ennio Morricone and transforming them into something entirely new. This path selects songs with the most inventive and culturally significant samples in his catalog. After each track, look up the original. The conversation between source and creation is the whole art.
