We need a full coli investigation into the sample on MF DOOM's "Arrow Root".

:jbhmm:

This one's been going around the internet for years.
Anyone have any clue where DOOM sampled this beat from?



I think it's possible he copped it from a 60s/70s tv show like Madlib did for "All Caps"
Some people think it's "Naima" by John Coltrane but I'm not convinced...

I never knew how much love this joint got.

I thought "Arrow Root"was my personal secret.
