    "comment": "The \"Rockafeller\" in the title comes from the distorted vocal that repeats something like \"Ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-rockafella-rockafella.\"\n\nThis may or may not be a Jay-Z sample, possibly from his 1997 song \"Who You Wit,\" where at the beginning he says, \"Roc-A-Fella, y'all,\"  a reference to his record label, Roc-A-Fella Records. \n--\nFatboy Slim (Norman Cook) had to forfeit 100% of the royalties for \"The Rockafeller Skank\" due to extensive sampling.  Dive deep, deep, deep into this song and its many samples.: https://www.musicology.blog/a-funk-soul-brother-the-undying-appeal-of-fatboy-slims-the-rockafeller-skank/ http://fatboyslim.net/",
