In 2018, Drake sampled Lauryn. In 1998, Lauryn sampled Wu-Tang. In 1993, Wu-Tang sampled Gladys Knight’s “The Way We Were” from 1974. 44 years of history in a single record. Appreciate that.

For those asking why, the answer is simple. Preservation. Photo albums document decades of generations. If you look through the QTs, you’ll see folks say that they lost theirs in fires or floods. Having a digital backup will help protect your family from losing valuable history.

If you don’t want to spend money on a scanner, just use your phone camera. It’s extra work but you could easily take a digital photo of a physical one and edit it to make a copy.

Each record is a different sound, genre, and style from different eras. Follow that web and discover music that you didn’t even know existed. That’s why sampling is important. Plus, that record is a certified jam. Argue with the sundress wearing shorties if you want to be weird

If you’ve never listened to jazz or you’re interested in it, now is a great time to start. There’s an era of band camp kids that grew up listening to hip hop that are making some funky, soulful shit.

What people call streetwear isn’t really streetwear anymore. These are older established brands making their money off of prestige. Streetwear has always been an accessible culture for those who knew what was what. Tap in with smaller brands. That’s where the cool shit is.
