Welcome back to Name That Beat! Last week's winner, along with some hint-dropping from DJ Stylus, was Sam Champ who gave the correct answer of "Cause I Need It" by one of the few jazz harpists in the history of the genre, Dorothy Ashby. This harp-heavy track was used for quite a few tracks including Que-D's "Rockbox," and a snippet of this track was also used on "A Million And One Questions" by Jay-Z. The best use of this track, in my opinion, was used by InI on their seminal classic "Fakin' Jax."
Dorothy Ashby: "Cause I Need It"
InI: "Fakin' Jax"
