So, the lil’ homie Jermaine Dupri has a new mixtape called I Think I’m Berry Gordy, eh? That’s a joke that writes itself for the most part, but that’s neither here nor there. Today’s entry is about how a kid went from poppin’ in Whodini videos to becoming one of the most in-demand producers of the ’90s.

Some of y’all are familiar with my “The ’90s Loved The ’80s” series, right? Well, as fate would have it, the ’90s occasionally sampled some other joints from the ’90s as well. It mostly went on during the later half, although not as much as the rampant ’80s-jacking that went on. As I might’ve said once before, ’90s music still hasn’t been sampled as much as stuff from the previous decades, mostly because they were so busy sampling theirdamnselves during the ’90s. This entry is prime evidence of that, because there was so much sampling that some of the joints that didn’t contain samples… got sampled.
Confused? You won’t be, after this edition of… “The ’90s Loved The ’90s”. (Shoutout to whoever gets that reference)

So… today, Mariah Carey hits the big 4-0. Even though she tends to come off like the old broad who thinks she’s still cool, and I’ve always been “blah” about most of her music, MC is aiiight with me. Matter fact, I’d wife her up if I was sure she didn’t have a drinking problem and she wasn’t wild’n out with Nick Cannon. She’s also a big ’80s R&B fan, as can be gathered by how many classic joints she’s revisited over the course of her career. There’s also that awful Glitter movie she made, but that’s neither here nor there. Here’s a few of her remixes from the late-’90s and the tracks they borrowed from.
(Oh, and don’t y’all go judgin’ me about seein’ Glitter- my niece used to fukk with that movie hard.)
