yeah, amazing how all these artists travelled through time to hear the original sounds of 'paul's boutique', then went back in time and incorporated it into their music:
"Hoo-ha! Got them all in check." - "8th Wonder" by The Sugarhill Gang
"It's the Joint" - song of same title by Funky 4+1
"Shake Your Rump-ah" - from the Unity album by James Brown and Afrika Bambaataa
'Scratch' heard under "the most packinest", "your belief, chief" and at the end - "Could you be Loved" by Bob Marley
Additional beats from "Super Mellow" by Paul Humphrey from the album "The Drum Suite"
Afrika Bambaataa's, "Jazzy Sensation"
After the chorus phrase "Shake Your Rump-a" there is a drum break with synth. The first two runthroughs, right before the rap starts again, the concluding drum fill is from "Good Time Bad Times" by Led Zepplin.
Beat is Harvey Scales's "Dancing Room Only" (from the lp hotfoot: a funque dizco opera, casablanca, 1977)
Bong hit
Mostly taken from the "Car Wash" soundtrack by Rose Royce
Ronnie Laws, "Tell Me Something Good"
the disco call is from Foxy's "Get Off"
The main drum roll is from "Funky Snakefoot" by Alphonze Mouzon from the album "Funky Snakefoot"
and this is only off track 2.
