From the same people who brought us the Kanye West Lost Songs compilation [download] and Lost Songs 2: Welcome To Chicago [download], comes The Lost Samples; a compilation of original samples to complement the two aformentioned compilations. Whew, that was a long sentence! Many, many thanks to Arthur and Dani for hooking this set up and giving us the exclusive on it. A special thank you goes out to Fred Hart who supplied some really dope ass artwork. This set is 25 songs deep an includes most of the samples Kanye used to create those Lost Songs. If you’re looking for more Kanye samples, make sure you check out our Kanye Original Samples collection [download] and for the ultimate fan, check out our 5 volume series of Kanye Guest Verses [download].
