Was the theme song to the original SWAT show sampled in The Fugees The Sweetest Thing - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was listening to a Fugees album in my music box today and discovered that the song The Sweetest Thing used the original SWAT theme as a sample until I read it in my liner notes of the cd. How did Columbia TV get the Fugees to use the show's theme as a sample? I thought it was cool and neat that a cop show theme was used in a song

It was a great theme. I think it went to #1 on the pop charts too.
