Freddie Hubbard

1938-2008

I guess if I had to make the analogy [In Hip Hop terms]: Freddie Hubbard is the Nas to Miles Davis' Rakim. (see below)

God Bless.



Note: several of Freddie Hubbard's songs were sampled by notable hip Hop artists.

*** "Povo" from the Sky Dive LP.........sampled by Black Sheep for "Black with N.V." off the Wolf In Sheeps Clothing LP.

***"Little Sunflower" from the Backlash LP.........sampled by A Tribe Called Quest for "The Love" off the The Love Movement LP.

***"Red Clay" from the Red Clay LP.......sampled by A Tribe Called Quest for "Sucka N*gga" off the Midnight Marauders LP. Also re-worked by Dwele and Roy Hargrove for a live recording (Gilles Peterson BBC sessions and Dwele Live).
