| The break from this song has been dubbed "The most important drum break in history" and it just might be true.

| Dope stuff bro. I stumbled upon this by accident seconds after I had finished chopping that break to use in a track. "An entire sub-culture based around 6 seconds from 1969" haha classic | | | |

| It's very informative but he forgot to mention Louis Flores! Inventor of the Ultimate Breaks & Beats.Louis did a re edit where he slowed the break down. Almost every producer has used his version.
Ultimate Breaks & Beats is a series of bootleg music compilations constructed by Louis Flores consisting mostly of Funk, but also included some Latin, Rock, Disco, and other music genres. The original aim of the series was to create a one-stop shop of classic 70's/80's urban party anthems and DJ battle tools. However, soon after the series originated in 1986, sampling as a form of Hip-Hop production came into vogue, making this the primary source for most mid-to-late 80's hip hop loops. Many of the songs were edited by Louis to extend their introductions or drum breaks, which increased their usefulness to djs. Most early Music loops of these songs that appeared in newer songs that sampled them were in their edited form. The series has also became noted for popularizing the Amen break from The Winstons' single "Amen Brother". This short drum break is a fundamental part of jungle and drum and bass music. | | | |

| Richard L. Spencer owns the Drum however he never got royalties and i believe that eh don`t care or he got lot of money to even care about royalty of this drum loop | | Suicidal thoughts were bred when i came out the womb with a umbilical code around my neck******

| Yeah I know this beat very well. This beat is also the reason breakers (like me) are formally known as B-boys. The B means break making "breakboy" shortened to "B-boy". This is because B-boys would dance in this style to the "break" of the song, paticuarly this breakbeat. This 6 second breakbeat has way more history to it in addition to what he's talking about in Hip-Hop culture. "B-boy" = "Breakboy", "Break"dancer (media term). Get it? ^_^ | | | |
