Notes: 1. To anyone who is unaware, mcDJ is Childish Gambino’s DJ name, which is why he takes a handful of samples from those music. 2. I am aware that STN MTN are mostly remixes/covers (not necessarily samples), but I thought it’d be nice to still get the origin of the instrumentals he’s on. 3. Favorite sample used in this video is the Toxic sample, makes for a crazy beat. 4. “Let‘s Take It To The Stage” by Funkadelics is 1975, not 1985. Typo by me, I apologize (5/15/20)** Plugging these two here again: Instagram: @parked.in.traffic and Twitter: @parkedintraffic. There is going to be more content (album reviews, general thought on music news, etc.) on both socials, so give me a follow!

[@navonmyhand7999]

Loving these videos of yours having come into my recommended recently. My favorite sample is probably Good To Your Ear in Riot.

[@ParkedInTraffic]

@@navonmyhand7999 it means a lot you watch as well! and yeah, those up beat guitar riffs are crazy

[@CAYCAYNULLIAN]

i wanted to let the creator know i recently found out the song "Heartbeat" off of camp is a sample of Adele's "Hometown Glory" which i didn't realize was missed until recently.

[@JaredtheRabbit]

Everybody gangsta until Donald "Childish Gambino" Glover sampled himself.

[@MacBack123]

mcDJ

[@shroom2692]

Nah man, it was Donald sampling Childish Gambino

[@anth0nybalb0a]

I was looking at that R Kelly sample on Crawl thinking, "Huh, Pedophile / Sexual Abuser is a weird name for a band," not realizing it was referring to R Kelly 😭

[@aidanbrophy9947]

from royalty to present he has presented nothing but greatness

[@prod.sabimaru2736]

1:05 song name: My Melody!!!! Childish: OUR MELODY!!!!

[@TheNobleBard]

I've always wondered why even before his more recent albums, he's always felt so distinctly 80s to me. Seeing his samples, it's clear why.

[@colesmelly]

Y’all forgot the best one! I’d rather be with you by Bootsy Collins Was what inspired Redbone

[@ParkedInTraffic]

Ah yeah I had that in the back of my mind, but since it wasn't much of a direct sample, I think that's why I chose not to. But ur right, it's good to know that

[@colesmelly]

Parked In Traffic he kinda took the bass line

[@ParkedInTraffic]

@@colesmelly more or less i guess then

[@kayecee5970]

Actually Isaac Hayes The Look Of Love was used listen to both intros it’s the same

[@magicmanmatt5831]

5:43😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@Freakylynx21]

Kauai was a mixtape so less of a sampling and more just rapping over other people's beats. This was cool video though, I appreciated it.

[@dutchjefe5363]

Stone Mountain was the mixtape kauai was the album. It was a double album like drop but only one was an album

[@noahpacheco944]

Fun Fact: Donald technically sanpled himself sampling himself because the mcDJ song at 1:34 samples derrickcomedy's video "Keyboard Kid" derrickcomedy as a group being one of donalds first appearances on the internet

[@deadchannel332]

Childish Gambino's favorite movie is Drive. Also, I love Drive the movie by a lot.

[@riverscuomo7140]

Pretty sure there's a different version of the "daddy, I love him" clip on streaming services

[@ParkedInTraffic]

oops, might have gotten the original one or something then

[@sk8terkek429]

It's different on the album too

[@shinobitoby]

So we just gonna ignore the R. Kelly diss at 5:42? 😭😭

[@Tre_Raw]

when you sample yourself, you know you make heat

[@KeyInPeace]

culdesac is a classic

[@anth0nybalb0a]

One of my favorite mixtapes

[@ferced6263]

Actually it’s not from toxic, the sample I think, it’s from the original Bollywood source “tere mere beech mein” which is from where toxic was sampled in the first place :)

[@YaBoiDoi]

The Rkelly joke got me good

[@timu1960]

amazing video

[@kkondedraculadoearl]

man, thank you so much, YOU ARE SO COOL

[@mkevz]

this is such an incredible video

[@qb09944]

[@nimnim4467]

Fun fact: Toxic itself has been sampled from an old Indian song!

[@ParkedInTraffic]

[@user-zd5tw4zv1b]

Nice work through this whole video! It’s interesting to recognize all these samplings, and the clip works are also really nice (my favorite one is Atlanta clip for Worldstar!)

[@ParkedInTraffic]

Yujin Choi appreciate it! And yeah it was nice to have his own show to grab clips from lol

[@genericsidecharacter8915]

See, this is what it means to sample a song. Not just adlib over an existing song or make practically a parody of the original.

[@sad-db3qj]

In the song II. Worldstar, Gambino uses a bumper from the adult swim channel

Bootsy's rubber band - i'd rather be with you inspired redbone from childish. Maybe you knew this already, but i'm Just pointing it out. Great video ♥️🙏

[@ParkedInTraffic]

Right, it's hard to get the disparity between inspiration and sample sometimes which is why I didn't include it...but you're 100% right and I appreciate you knowing as well!

W for the R Kelly part

American Royalty is my favorite album of all time

I thought pink toes was a sample for musiq - so beautiful

[@DJSHAKESUM_]

algorythm was sampled from hey mr dj by zhane

[@ParkedInTraffic]

You are correct about that, I think this video was made before any official track of "Algorythm" came out; unfortunate miss

[@Tonypoquesevchski]

I’ll never listen to zealots the same ever again

[@brockobama257]

Because The Internet was his magnum opus

[@Asimo9819]

the only sample that still eludes me to this day is that “wowowowoweee” that carries throughout Flight of the Navigator. i read somewhere that it’s from an NBA game but idk which one

[@poprocks187]

I can’t find anywhere that confirms it but I think the air raid noise at the beginning of Bonfire is the same one used in 2 Live Crew’s “Shake a Lil Somethin” but if he’s just taking the OG sample than that would be just a sound effect from a compilation album of sounds. Either way, thought that should be listed above

[@aidannorton3526]

respect on the 05:50 note

[@CrashRyan]

I wonder how the genius ideas were formed to make some of this music. It’s almost greater than food. Bc I’m starving without this

[@eridonstewart9973]

Also I think whether on purpose or on accident he reused the melody of "Can You Get To That" by Funkadelic in his song "Have Some Love"

[@Spanishdog17]

Good video. Small nitpick. I'm pretty sure 'Let's Take It To The Stage' was released in 1975 not 1985.

[@ParkedInTraffic]

Spanishdog17 not even a nitpick! Valid! Finger must have slipped between the two #s 😞 good catch

[@johnthegreat97]

[@dyhoat]

Ryan Gosling Jumpscare

[@ltfringr]

I'd guess "you see me" is sampling Wanna Be Startin Somethin which sampled that song

[@scottlarish]

I wonder who else knows mcDJ is childish gambino

[@ParkedInTraffic]

Scott Larish def a secret to many; I had no idea prior to making this video lol

[@kennyalexander8412]

awaken my love really only had one sample? if so that's dope

[@ParkedInTraffic]

There were many inspirations and small interpolations to a lot of the instrumentals, but yes, most of the production did not involve actual samples

[@pwtv559]

What were the names of the vocal samples chopped up on crawl? I’ve been wondering where they came from

[@jayc5756]

Need an updated version of this...after 2016. But ok. 😎

good question, been a minute since i made this video

[@jorcraycray]

I just noticed you forgot a sample, "The Night Me And Your Mama Met" Samples the string in The Weeknds "Dark Times" Ft Ed Sheeran

[@ParkedInTraffic]

zwlsy yep they sound very similar but I think they might just be similar hard guitar strums rather than a direct sample, mostly cuz I can’t find any info that say it’s from that song; but who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
