fav funk, reggae etc

What are peoples favorite non hip-hop songs preferably no pop/rock etc and mostly just soul, funk, reggae and the likes.

For example

or essentially songs that are or should be sampled for a hip-hop song.

I think conor.hogan.2 is looking to hear from the people on the hip hop forum as to who they listen to outside of just hip hop.

If not then the Soul/R 'n' B/Funk forum is this way -> http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=511

I will check out the other sections.

But ye it is to see what people who clearly enjoy hip-hop (enough to post here about it) like besides hip-hop.
Also their favorite songs that were possibly sampled etc.

Im into most kinds of music, but I'll keep it hip hopish and post up some favourite samples that have sparked my interest in amd encouraged me to listen to more Soul & Funk & Blues

Amazing to think that a 3-5 second sample at the start of this is one of my favourite sounds on a track ever.

Tell me what track I refer to and I'll give you a cookie.

Da Shins Kelly

I'm pretty into soul and r n' b, although it'd mainly be oldies.

Pretty sure it's been sampled. Has to have been.

Great song in its own right.

Love playing this full blast.

Sampled by both Wu-Tang and Dre. A lot of Hathaway's stuff has been sampled in hip-hop, as far as I know.

Great song. It sounds like a hip-hop inspired beat. Apparently she took a good bit of inspiration from Nas and Mos Def, so it'd make sense. Ghostface Killah did a remix of this song later too.
