Det er ikke første gang at en kendt kunstner benytter et sample fra et spil de elsker. Vi er jo alle vokset op med spil i et eller andet omfang, og sådan er det også for Eminem, og han har valgt at inkludere en særlig bid af en melodi fra Kingdom Hearts på hans seneste album, Kamikaze.
I et interview med Rolling Stone fortæller han at man nok ikke kan høre hvor melodien kommer fra.
"That's me doing my video game thing. Kingdom Hearts. It's a Japanese videogame, and that's the theme song from it. It's one of the dopest melodies I've ever heard. Shout out Japanese videogames and Japanimation for inspiration. Filtered it, did some chops, did some processing to it. I basically made it unrecognizable, but I know they would have still found it. That's why we had to deal with the clearance. But when I do anything I try to make it to where it's not fully recognizable."
Mon Eminem kan følge med i historien bag Kingdom Hearts?
