    "comment": "Did you know that this song (mostly the vocals) has been sampled more than 70 times, including by Liz Phair and Snoop Dog? https://tinyurl.com/52xvzdnk\n\nMelle Mel (Melvin Glover) wrote the lyrics, but the backing track, including that killer bass line, is interpolated from a dance song called \"Cavern\" by the group Liquid Liquid that came out earlier in 1983 and was big in the clubs. The vocal melody also comes from \"Cavern,\" with the words \"what side\" becoming \"white lines.\"",
