Both "the streetz r deathrow" and "let's get it on" ft. biggie & heavy d
use the same Barry White sample....

Tupac didn't meet biggie until after S4MN, so do you think he expected "Let's get it on" to not get released? Otherwise why would he do a song with exactly the same sample?

I know he sampled things like Zapp's "Computer Love" multiple times, but it was always different bits of the original song that were used. However with these 2, its the same bit of the Barry White song...

and which do you prefer? i love both of them....i think the streetz r deathrow is slightly better, jus cos there's more pac on it haha.. the ice cube sample is dope as well.
 
Kamikazi, i ain't got either of those.

ricardo, true, but it wasnt exactly the same bit of the whodini song used on the two songs.
 
Never Be Peace OG and Never Call U Bitch Again OG use the same sample
Where Do We Go From Here (Interlude) and What's Next use the same sample

and besides that, 2Pac wasn't the producer, he didn't pick samples himself

Letter 2 My Unborn OG is on Son Rize Vol. 1 and is not in complete OG form, but still has the OG beat

I Wonder If Heaven Got A Ghetto OG is on the Keep Ya Head Up Single.

Do you mean that these songs use the same beat or the same sample?They don't have the same beat at all...
"Fuck All Y'all OG" and "4 My Niggaz" have the same beat,exept "Fuck All Y'all OG" has a haitian guitar added in the background.

No, 2pac had nothing to do with choosing this sample because he was simply a guest appearance on the track.
