Hey everybody I am loving this board. Finally in my opinion the greatest soul singer of all times gets his props....has anyone heard Mountain of Memories by Mr. Ruffin....I think that it is his best work

Yuck! I don't like that! I hate how everyone puts the samples on 45 now...why do they feel the need to speed up samples like that? I blame Kanye lol. Sorry, Jay, that one was not hittin' at all! Jay's song AMERICAN DREAMIN' samples one of my all-time favorite Marvin Gaye songs, but it's really not bad...I actually like it (as hard as that is to believe lol). But that one with Ruff, Jay shoulda left that one alone, man. |

Hey welcome, jazzruffin38!  Yes, Mountain Of Memories is a favorite of mine. I honestly felt that he was singing about Tammi Terrell because I do think he never got over her death. Anyway, it was nice to hear a song with David singing by himself without backup. |

After listening this song 5 times, I kinda like it. ;D
On a business note, has JayZ pay the Ruffin's family for sampling Ruff's voice or was money paid to Mr. Gordy?

It is my business and no I am not claiming to be a Ruffin, I was asking the question because Rappers tend to lift somone's voice without paying for it! Knucklehead if you were singing with JayZ which we all know you cannot hold a tune, I would be asking the same thing has JayZ paid the homeless person for using his voice? |
