What about prog rock samples used in hip-hop songs?

Kanye West famously used the 21st Century Schizoid Man chorus in one of his big hits.

Some jazz-rock/fusion has been used in hip hop. Biggie used that Herb Alpert bassline in one of his songs. I think Massive Attack used some Billy Cobham samples in their music.

Hip-hop rubs some people the wrong way. It's not my favorite genre but I appreciate some of it.

Does Holger Czukay's "sampling" in later Can (pre-'80) count? Wink

Yes Nass and Mobb Deep used great instrumentals, they were underground. Mobb Deep - Survival Of The Fittest https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIq4UTgqDAc

Friend, you've obviously never heard nasty if that's what you think you've just read.

I thought this was going to be a discussion of hip hop that is progressive.

Here is something I found recently:

I first thought about BECK who is brilliant…… His music is, without a doubt, progressive….NO, I am not saying He is PROG, but cutting edge creative, and makes use of beats that border on hip-hop….. ODELAY is a killer album !
