    "comment": "George Clinton wrote \"Mothership Connection\" with bass player Bootsy Collins and keyboard player Bernie Worrell. \n--\nThe song came out of George Clinton and Bootsy Collins seeing a UFO one night. \"We were in the Bermuda triangle, Collins recalled to Uncut magazine. \"We were fishing and getting high and the mothership concept came.\"\n--\nThis has been sampled many times, mostly by West Coast rappers in the '90s. The most famous song to borrow it is \"Let Me Ride\" from Dr. Dre's highly influential 1992 album The Chronic. ",
