Bo$$: “Deeper” (1993)
One of two hits from Bo$$ that scored the top of the charts, the other “Recipe Of A Ho”, but “Deeper” would always stand out as her most well-known. Her career happened when she moved from Detroit to the West coast and was discovered by DJ Quik for a verse before being signed by Def Jam and released her only record Born Gangstaz. Well, that one’s an overstatement. Despite being accomplished in dance, musicianship, and completing two years of business in college, her gangsta’ life didn’t kick in until her and DJ Dee moved to Los Angeles to experience being homeless, slinging drugs, violence and gang warfare. That’s what they ran with and took it from there. Whether you care or not about Bo$$’ legitimacy, “Deeper” is a great single which a vexed Lichelle Marie Laws lets it all out on being harassed, bothered, and taken advantage of, as a female gangsta’. It helped that there’s lots of sampling gold to be found here with “90% Of Me Is You” by Gwen McCrae (’74), "Under the Bridge” by Red Hot Chili Peppers ('91), “I'm Gonna Love You Just A Little More Baby” by Barry White (’73), “Promised Land” by Dennis Brown (’79) and even a soundbyte from Axel Foley from Beverly Hills Cop. 
New York’s Hot 97 used this instrumental for Mega Banton’s “Soundboy Killing” (’93), meaning no physical version of that exists.

Gwen McCrae: “Rockin’ Chair” (1975)
One of our WUSB hip-hop shows (possibly Eminent Audio) spun Greg Nice’s “Comin’ Thru’ With The Click” (2000) and, damn, that was hoppin’. Eventually I traced it back to “Rockin’ Chair”, Gwen McCrae’s best-known single. Five years earlier, Blahzay took a piece for his breakout golden-era hit “Danger! (Oh My God)”. Still, nothing like the regal original.
