I still think the intro of Illuminati somehow samples Material Girl

In "Take A Day" she does some "when the groove begins to play you know what i wanna..." that sounds reminiscent of "when the room begins to sway you know what i'm trying to say". The bassline on Devil Pray is very Erotica. The synth horns when Nas hits on Veni Vidi are either Holiday or Material Girl.

Also try mouthing out or reciting the lyrics to Like A Prayer while listening to Living For Love. The structures are about identical.

Interesting. I need to check that.

 

the vocal on the intro of illuminati reminds me of the bass line in the intro of material girl

How about Veni Vidi Vici having similar a similar chord progression to Dress You Up? Agree or no?

Living For Love demo has a literal re-creation of the Vogue piano run but all on the same note.
