On this week's episode of Salute the Sample, ROCK THE BELLS' exclusive series where LL COOL J, Greg Nice, and DJ Z-Trip breakdown the origin of some of Hip-Hop’s most beloved samples, the trio follows an Eddie Van Halen sample train.

You can hear Eddie Van Halen's guitar on a slew of hit songs across genres (including some he didn't credit for). From Michael Jackson and beyond, Van Halen's skills were also part of one of Hip-Hop's timeless party songs, as well of one of its raunchiest.

Follow the sample train and check out the episode below. Catch a new episode of Salute The Sample every Thursday.
