Who is gonna write the magazine piece about why the Eddie Murphy “Hit by a Car” sample was excised from the outro when this song was finally released on All the Streaming Services? https://music.apple.com/us/album/the-magic-number/1664523637?i=1664523638

Track Title
Album Title
Artist Name

That’s what should be glanceable when you’re playing musical recordings released in the last 100ish years. Hell, maybe they can add a 4th line to cover composition/movement in classical stuff, but taking away album is just dumb
