D.J. Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince's remix of Girls Ain't Nothing but Trouble sampled the theme from I Dream of Jeannie. I can't think of anymore at the moment.

They did the same thing as Crystal Waters did. The song was called "Come On Down". The song by Nice & Smooth called "What Time Is It?" was sampled the "Fat Albert" theme song.

Lord Digga isn't a group, he's a solo rapper. He used to be down with Masta Ace's INC crew in the early 90's. Is Nice & Smooth's What Time Is It song on their first cd? That's the only cd by them i haven't heard.

Teah that was their Debut album , The Chub Rock one that I posted I think the DJ did that one because I heard that one on the radio when the record 1st came out.

If you branch out further than rap...

The Thrills recently sampled the theme from "Mork & Mindy" for their song "Whatever Happened to Corey Haim?"
