Actually what I wanna know is do people know that they are Indian songs? Oh and they sample them so that they you can't even understand what they are saying.

lol, yeah i dont understand the significance of sampling them, specialy that one with eric serman and redman song (React), the indian girl is singing something about suicide....totaly not in the context of the rap song.

he uses it in the chorus..eh

Yep, I recognized it as soon as I heard it (because I loved the original Hindi song). The title of the Jay-Z song is "The Bounce". Ethnic crossover? More power to them. If you don't like it, don't listen to it. Sounds like a little bit of ethnocentricism as far as I'm concerned, but hey, whatever floats your boat.

Yeah, no point at all. It's not like beautiful music can come from any other countries ... especially India.

The best one is that song 'disco' by slum village...they actually sampled the indian song at a decent rate so it doesn't sound like its on a telephone!
