To quote dj erb:

“History of Hip Hop Pt. 1” focused on some of the landmark songs during hip hop’s infancy and so-called golden years. “History of Hip Hop Pt. 2” showcases the original source material that hip hop was built on. The art of sampling has moved beyond hip hop to other genres of music too. Examples of how hip hop and sampling have influenced other genres, such as techno, are included in the mix as well.

The tracklisting shows the artist and song titles used in each track…and where an original sample source was used, the song that sampled it in parenthesis.
