The List: Top 5 Hip-Hop Samples of Radiohead

Over an extremely fertile 33-year career, Thom Yorke and Co. have produced loads of beautiful.weird.haunting.mournful moments, from the guitar-driven Britpop and art rock of their early albums through to the electronic and orchestral manoeuvres of latter-day.

One of the consistent threads, however, has been their production of sounds ripe for sampling by the hip-hop world. Without further ado, here are our picks for best use of Radiohead:

Joe Budden: “Never Again”
