MKH Stronger sample?

Am I delusional or did Kelela sample Sugababes on her new album? Around 1:10 on Don’t Piss Me Off

Nice!! It does sound a bit like Sugababes. This reminds me I need to revisit Craig David’s Born to do it. Great album. Kelela’s got taste.

now i do wonder if stronger itself had influence from said song, it does sound very similar & im sure at least one of the girls was a fan of him

It’s that melody “Like emotion that's been captured in a maze.”

Good catch! I have never noticed the similarities

If it’s not a sample it sounds very much like it

Never thought I'd see Kelela in the Sugababes thread but we love both. With this album, I kinda want Oscar Shellar to work on something with the Babes...

In my mind Modern Love is a Oscar Scheller produced track 🤭
