I've had the intro to what I'm pretty sure is a rap/hip hop song in my head for days and cannot remember what it is.

What I've got:
I'm pretty sure it's a sample of a brass section.
I assume it's late 90s early 2000s as that's when my tastes were most varied
It must have been quite popular/mainstream as it's not a genre I've really sought out - thought it was Jump Around or something by Cypress Hill, but I don't think it is!

Any help would be much appreciated - I am wandering around singing it and driving myself and my kids mad with it.

is it primal scream, the begining of loaded?

Rachelfromfriends1 · 31/12/2019 19:08

What are the lyrics you’re singing?

Branleuse · 31/12/2019 19:08

not rap, but got the brass

No lyrics I'm afraid - I thought it was Jump Around, so was singing that, then realised it wasn't! No help there, I'm afraid, and it's none of the others suggested so far.

Maybe check a popular Spotify playlist of 90s/00s songs, Spotify always comes through when I’m trying to figure out a song!

If it’s similar to jump around, you can make a song radio based on this song too, Spotify will make a playlist with similar songs

Can you hum it and post a recording?

If you have Alexa ask her. If you can remember any lyrics I'll ask?

CharityConundrum · 31/12/2019 19:19

Ok, I think I've recorded myself singing the intro - let's see if this works...

If you can't remember any lyrics and we can't hear you hum the tune, it's pretty pointless asking here out of around 100,000 songs 🤣🤣🤣🤣

CharityConundrum · 31/12/2019 19:21

@AngeloMysterioso

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!
Wish I hadn't recorded my embarrassing version now! I even listened to that yesterday, but because it wasn't the first few seconds, I decided I'd remembered it wrong! THANK YOU!!! I can now start 2020 earworm free!

RumpoleoftheBaileys · 31/12/2019 19:28

@Auridon4life - for the first time ever, I actually did lol. Brava. 😅

TitianaTitsling · 31/12/2019 19:37

@CharityConundrum I'm sure l've been on a thread where a song was found from a mere 'da-da-daahhh daa da'! 🌟
