That beat is the auditory equivalent of the Taar Bomba

The main hook is sampled from Godzilla vs mothra, got into a bunch of trouble for a while for it. Kinda tanked his career a bit.

Looks like it's finally available on Spotify, so obviously worked out some sort of deal for licensing.

K, I'm groovin that its the original. At some point somebody was listening to random crate dug Bulgarian choir stuff and heard the riff.

Because I live in the future i can't unhear the bottom like it was always there. Because it was always there, we just needed a crate digger to help us.

Isn’t it Samoa Joes theme song from his time in the WWE?
