Kanye West made a trip to Bollywood during the making of “Yeezus” to find a sample for “I Am A God”<\/h2>\n

\"kanye-west-yeezus\"<\/p>\n

Kanye West’s latest masterpiece, \u201cYeezus,\u201d his sixth solo album, dropped recently and is already being showered with mostly critical acclaim. The third track on the album, one humbly titled \u201cI Am a God,\u201d is credited as being written by Kanye West, the duo better known as Daft Punk, and \u2014 here\u2019s where it gets interesting \u2014 Anand Bakshi and Rahul Burman, among others. This is because a sample of \u201cAre Zindagi Hai Khel\u201d is used in the song. Here\u2019s the thing: people can\u2019t seem to figure out where, exactly.<\/p>\n

Kanye is known for sampling a wide range of songs from different genres, but it would be nice to actually be able to recognize the sample being used. We’ve listened to both songs about a dozen times each at this point but can\u2019t figure out where exactly he hid the R.D. Burman classic…can you?<\/p>\n

If you need a refresher, sit back and watch the scene from the 1972 film \u201cSeeta Aur Geeta.\u201d<\/p>\n
