Hey team, I'm going mental trying to relocate this one!

I have very little to go off of, but this tune has been digging through my skull and I NEED to scratch this itch!

I don't have much for distinguishing features to share, but the biggest thing that stands out is the sample. For a large portion of the tune, vocal is chopped up like "b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-booyakusha!"

It'll get pitched up, it'll get pitched down, but just relentless booyakushas in my brain the last 48 hours!

Long shot, but I'll owe ya if you can cure what ails me. I seemed to be stumbling into it plenty until I need it!

Thanks in advance!

Neither are really dubstep but, my best guess is "Keep their heads ringing" by Dr. Dre.

Song

My first thought was also Rey Mysterios entrance if you watched any WWE.

Rey

Cheers for the attempt, but the search continues! I'm fairly confident this is a newer tune from within the last few years. The chopped "b-b-b-b" leading up to the "booyakusha" is quick, like swung 16th notes. Really no other vocals on the tune either. Solid effort though!

Pretty sure the sample used in Dre's is the same, but over produced quite a bit more with the swung rapid fire and getting pitched up and down.

Big ups again for taking the time to help!

Love the assist, not scratching the itch though. I'm fairly confident this is a newer tune from within the last few years. The chopped "b-b-b-b" leading up to the booyakusha is quick, like swung 16th notes. Really no other vocals on the tune either.

Sorry, I have absolutely no idea but good luck in your quest xD

Yeah I'll just keep sifting through my labyrinth of spotify playlists until I trip into it again. There's simply too many tunes to keep straight!

Rusko- Booyakasha? https://youtu.be/Qr1l3RQOpv8?si=z4HJ-2eWS-5C9JFp

The original sample is from Mad Crew by KRS One. I just looked up what songs sampled it.

Thanks for trying, but not my unicorn. Cheers for the effort though!
