The Shocking Sample Secrets in Kanye's College Dropout - FULL EDIT (Patreon)

This past week, Kanye West's debut album, "The College Dropout" turned 20. This was a groundbreaking album that catapulted him into another level, and despite where he's gone since, this album remains a classic.

My very first Digging The Greats video was breaking down "Through The Wire" from this album, and I also covered "All Falls Down", which Ken Lewis recreated the acoustic guitar sample for. But TODAY - I'm diving into 5 more songs to look at the production style, mixing samples with live instrumentation, and sometimes... surprisingly, they aren't samples at all! 

This video features clips from my recent conversation with Ken Lewis where he tells me exactly what he did for this album (I guarantee you won't see them coming)
