One of the most revered and most heavily-sampled jazz tunes in hip-hop has been Bob James’ “Nautilus.” Although it’s been used for a plethora of classic joints, the quickest reference point for most folks is the loop for Ghostface’s “Daytona 500.” Know what I’m talkin’ about now? Cool. In steps The Kid Daytona.
The Bronx native has an album dropping soon called Come Fly With Me. Consider this a warm-up lap for the real deal. Daytona commissioned the producers of his album to all re-work “Nautilus” in their own special ways so he could showcase his spit game properly on this free EP (with the supreme co-sign from the one and only Mick Boogie). You’re gonna need your volume cranked for this one.
