Discovery: MidaZ the Beast, Loaf Muzik & My Terrible Researching Skills (1/20/18)
So I was sent this song this morning and asked to find the sample.
"Timeless" - Shadow The Great feat. KIDAF
Never heard of them before today but now I'm a fan based on this one song and I plan on listening to everything before and after this track.

I figured it'll be easy, I'll just Shazam the intro that has the sample and done lol. I was wrong and followed was a glorious abuse of Google and scrolling down comments looking for an answer.
When I Shazam'd the song another song actually came up, I was like "cool I got it, easy".
The song that came up was "Posing with the Sawed Off" by MidaZ the Beast. Me being me I loved this instantly and downloaded the whole album.

Still, no sample info. So I google the sample for this track thinking they must've used the same thing if the Shazam confused lol wishful logic. It wasn't on WhoSampled but when I googled it a video of MidaZ actually came up and in the video he's talking to a producer I think about the song and how he came up with it. He told somebody else to find the sample and they did. He said that he heard it from a mixtape or something so I'm thinking maybe he's talking about Loaf Muzik and one of their projects? Or maybe he's talking about "Timeless"? That'll be cool if it came full circle like that. Apparently it took his homie an hour to find the sample whereas I struggled for double the amount of time and found everything but that. I even looked up the lyrics for the "Timeless" sample and nothing. I won't give up lol I will find this but I'm glad I discovered all this cool music in the process so why not share it. Here's the video I'm talking about btw. Until next time.
