ti vs o-zone

via ThisIsHipHop

When I was listening to T.I.’s new LP Paper Trail, I couldn’t believe what I heard – track number 5, “Live Your Life”, featuring Rihanna and produced by non other than Just Blaze. There it was: “Ma-ia-hii, Ma-ia-huu, Ma-ia-hoo, Ma-ia-haa“!!!

The track samples the — well, let me say it like this — very controversial song “Dragostea Din Tei” performed by the Moldovan dance trio O-Zone.

    My friend put me on to this track a couple of weeks back. I thought it was some corny remix that someone had done but as you said, it’s actually on the album! I’m not a big fan of the sample or the track… They should def step their game up if they are trying to make forward progress in this music game.
