![]() ![]() that is the only plausible deniability I have. So I was like I knew you were targeting me and she was like but how? And I was like Michael filled me in on the hammock conversation. first she asked why I told people the information and I was like going to say well I have a final two with Monte and I tell Monte everything. like I don’t know this is probably best not to say in front of Taylor but for no reason maybe it doesn’t matter. but the interesting things I pulled from the conversation. so I just wanted to talk it out because I knew she knew and I was just lie having a conversation about it. Turner – so it was for the most part like that but I did learn some interesting things so I was just like but honestly I did pull her into the corner because I just didn’t want it to be all weird. Monte – yeah, what’s happening? What was the real shake down. Turner – I just figured it would be easier for me to divulge my actual conversation with Brittany rather than with Taylor there because sometimes I don’t know what to share but I tell you everything so I was like I will just wait. if you’ve been working with people and you turn on that is that costing you the game. Brittany – its hard too because you’re always thinking about jury management too. Taylor is one bada$$ powerful woman but that is also like. ![]() It is a 750K every decision that is made. There is a lot to think about because Taylor has a great connection with you. I will be like okay, thank you for telling me so I am not blindsided. Alyssa – because I won’t be like damn you. I am not going to pressure anybody or try and influence anything but please just be open to asking me questions and seeing if there is anything that I could say or do and if there is not just be honest with me. Alyssa – From all the tears and everything. Alyssa – you know how much this means to me. Taylor nominated Lock your ranks in before midnightīackyard Upper Level – Alyssa and BrittanyĪlyssa – If there is something that you give me like a second chance I would really genuinely owe you my game and I would be able to be here and help somehow. Veto Ceremony: Brittany use the power of veto on herself. It makes me feel good about the world that Pete Rock’s pain has inspired so many new ideas.POV Players: Monte, Brittany, Alyssa, Turner, Taylor Their song has been sampled and quoted many times. The chain of musical inheritance doesn’t end with Pete Rock and CL Smooth. Pete Rock’s looping transformed unprominent pieces of Tom Scott’s shaggy improvisation into laser-beam-focused funk. Playing a riff from a chart sounds very different from discovering it in the heat of the moment. They could, in theory, have painstakingly recreated the instrumentation and ambiance from Scott’s original recording, but the result would still not have had the effortless, tossed-off feel of the samples. There’s no other way for Pete Rock to have arrived at his sound, not even if he had hired Tom Scott to come in and play his sax riff live in the studio. “T.R.O.Y.” is a perfect example of why sampling is so valuable. I’ve debated the musical merits of sampling endlessly with my friends and students, musicians and non-musicians alike. The chain of ideas from Jefferson Airplane to Tom Scott to Pete Rock and CL Smooth reminds me very much of the chain from Paul Simon to Bob James to Run-DMC that culminates in “ Peter Piper.” It seems like a recipe for success: golden-age hip-hop group samples jazz fusion cover of sixties pop-rock song. He also wrote the theme songs for Starsky & Hutch, Hill Street Blues and Family Ties.Īnd here’s the original Jefferson Airplane song at the head of this memetic family tree: He’s best known to hippies for playing sax and lyricon on Terrapin Station by the Grateful Dead and has been a session guy on a zillion other albums. Slick Rick used it a year earlier it on “ It’s A Boy.” Hip-hop loves Tom Scott generally–many tracks sample the beat from “ Sneakin’ In The Back.” I had never heard of Tom Scott before writing this post, but I turn out to have heard a lot of his work. Pete Rock wasn’t the first hip-hop producer to have noticed this riff. The Tom Scott record in question is his rendition of “ Today” by Jefferson Airplane. When I mixed the song down, I had Charlie Brown from Leaders of the New School in the session with me, and we all just started crying. Next thing you know, I have a beautiful beat made. I found some other sounds and then heard some sax in there and used that. It had such a beautiful bassline, and I started with that first. When I found the record by Tom Scott, basically I just heard something incredible that touched me and made me cry. And to this day, I can’t believe I made it through, the way I was feeling. I had a friend of mine that passed away, and it was a shock to the community. ![]()
