Well , according to wikipedia 
'The album [In the court of the crimson king] reached #3 on the British charts. The album is certified gold in the United States.[...] The album was remastered and re-released on vinyl and CD several times during the 1980s and 1990s.[...] The song [21st century schizoid man] is featured as the final track in the music video game Guitar Hero 5'

So one must be really be a hermit if he never heard this song.

So apparently the sample was used illegally, which has drawn an angry Fripp over their asses, this is going to be fun LOL

Also, he likes it Shocked

I like Power & would have approved, had I been approached. Probably, Mr. Kanye acted in good faith & left it to his people to arrange licensing. Sadly, UMG’s Standard Operating Procedure seems to be: act first, regardless of proprieties & permissions, and deal later: on the assumption that the size & quasi-monopolisitic power of the company will be enough to deal / override / ignore any objections.

Kanye the artist has my presumption of innocence, given the clear choice between the intention of the artist & UMG the company/s.

I wonder how the 21st Century Schizoid Man feels about being in a song like this. Unhappy

I'd heard of this, and as much as I hate Kanye West, and all this rap bullsh*t, this actually made my day. I'm glad to know that rapmen (even producers) know that bands like King Crimson exist, and even take their time to sample their music into one of their songs. Still a lame song.

I hate rap
 
the sample "21st Century Schizoid man" sounded good but it lasted for for 5 seconds. Not enough for me to return to this tripe

Correct. It was directed at Lucas' post. Which was immediately above mine. 

Why does prog attrack so many paranoids? LOL

If you don't even know what is humour, please go away... Wink










(No, it's not serious. There's a know story around here about that phrase...Don't go away. )

Was this directed at me?

I've actually got a pretty good sense of humour usually but if it was a joke from lucas I'll be honest and say I don't really get it.

Anyway, I detect a bit of confusion in this thread that stems from two videos having been posted. There was the original Kanye West one and then the Nike one that lucas commented on.  Some people have responded to lucas assuming he was talking about the original one with the Schizoid Man sample.  However, he was talking about the Nike one that had most of Hocus Pocus in it, not just a few second sample.

Come to think of it, I thought the first time was a fluke, but maybe Kanye is a closet Prog Head...

Well, I surely won't be hearing this again by free will. If I want 21st Century Schizoid Man, I'll go for King Crimson.

So where are my friends now, so that I can tell them I'm not crazy! Kanye sampling King Crimson! (Well first they wouldn't know what sampling is) Never would have thought it possible.

It's not like prog has never been sampled before. Still, that's pretty funny.
