Swedish SVT documents the history of Jay-Z’s smash single “Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)” with first hand narrative from some of the people that helped the record come to fruition.
Translation:
00:04- 00:15
Luck or not Hard knock life become a huge hit. But nothing of this would happen if it wasn’t for the
Hiphop producer 45 King.
00:31-00:45
20 years after the musical he got the idea of sample Hard Knock Life. Even doe 45 king is held responsible
for several big Hiphop classics is he a little bit obscure and mystic
person. He rarely do interviews.
03:05-03:13
The 45 kings gave the song to he’s friend and superstar DJ Kid Capri and he decide to play it at a
Hiphop festival where Jay-Z appear.
Thanks for that Andre!!!
