Kendrick Lamar & Baby Keem Sample Bon Iver On New Song “The Hillbillies”

Many will note that cousins Baby Keem and Kendrick Lamar (actually, producer EVILGIANE) sampled Justin Vernon on their new song, just 13 short years after Kanye got to him. But don’t sleep on the Russian nesting doll of samples at work here: “PDLIF,” the great and underrated Bon Iver track that serves as the foundation for Keem and Kendrick’s new “The Hillbillies,” itself was built from charming UK jazz weirdo Alabaster DePlume’s “Visit Croatia.” That’s a lot of awesome songs stacked on top of each other!
