Curtis Mayfield – Right On For The Darkness

Among sample heads, Mr. Mayfield requires little introduction. His albums have been sampled by droves of producers, as his blend of funk and soul was unmatched over a 20-plus year career. A prolific singer, songwriter and producer; his influence is still present today - despite his tragic accident and passing over 10 years ago.

"Right On For The Darkness" comes from the 1973 album Back To The World. The track opens with a funky wah-wah guitar and Mayfield’s trademark falsetto, before picking up steam with strings and busy drumwork.

The best known use of this sample would be Ma$e’s 1998 hit What You Want, produced by the Hitmen.

Let’s see what the DP Fam can do with this one!
