Be Yourself *- Questlove: "Lots of us tease the Bar-Kays for being so blatantly derivative, though that was part of their plan--better for them to record their own versions of songs than have to cover originals. This song has a magical eight-bar breakdown at the 3:03 mark. Chi-Ali used it--the Beatnuts sampled it for him--and I put it in the first remix I ever did, King Britt's "Gettin' Into It."
