Today we’re talking all about the classic song “Can I Kick It” by A Tribe Called Quest, why they’ve never made a dime from it, but with that… the strange story of the betrayed rock star who took 100% of this song - and why it’s a perfect encapsulation of everything wrong with the music industry.

NOTE: This video is 6 minutes longer than the YouTube edit, and includes a new kind of ending - let me know what you think!

Can't believe you were even pointing... should've been kicking at the end

Great content here as always…as for the imperfection of the loop I’d say either it’s pause taped or it’s a sampling “mistake” which was eventually kept. As far as I know back then Tribe was using the S950 which had more than enough sampling time to properly sample the entire first two bars of Lou Reed’s song.

I was slightly looking for phife dogs verse but I know your point was made! Great job as always.
