Now THAT’s a song I wouldn’t expect to be sampled.

~ T.I. [ft. Rihanna] - Live Your Life ~

Rihanna is set to perform at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards, singing her latest smash Disturbia, and it is also rumored that she may join T.I. onstage for the performance of his new single Live Your Life. The new track samples that famous Romanian song, Numa Numa… never in my life would I expect it to be sampled in a T.I. track haha.

EDIT: Actually, the Romanian song is titled Dragostea din tei. Thanks for the correction, my loyal readers. I guess Numa Numa was just some stupid name someone gave the song when he/she didn’t understand the language -_-.

Hey…i’m from Romania…first of all the track is sung by 3 guys from The Republic of Moldova, not Romania, and second…the song is called “Dragostea din tei”(aproximate translation: The Linden Tree Love).
Anyway..it was very succesful here in our country and I really never, but i mean Never EVER i would’ve expected to here smth like this…still…sounds interesting…can’t wait to see it at VMA =)

i dunno abt this one…is it me or am i the only one who is gettin tired of the autotune effect. i mean, like it was cool on some of the songs but it seem like almost every new song you hear is autotune effect. and artists are funny for tryna act like this is something new when almost everybody uses it to cover up horrible singing…just at a lower setting so that its not noticable…just sayin

oh yeah btw…i love the blog chris!!!! lol
