T.I. Samples His Own Classic on “Let Em Know” and Fans Are Catching It

T.I. is proving once again that legacy is not just about what you did before, but how you build on it.

On his latest track “Let Em Know,” the Atlanta rapper takes a different approach to sampling by pulling from his own catalog. The song references his 2007 hit “Big Things Poppin Do It,” a record that helped define an era of Southern hip hop.

Instead of reaching back to another artist’s work, T.I. flips his own sound and brings it into a new moment.
