This is an outro to a hip-hop album and it has a cool blues tune for an outro. Does anyone know if this is a real song or just a little piece they made up. Thanks.

It's an old gospel tune "Warrior on the Battlefield." Recorded by a couple of different old-school layered (usually a capella) Black gospel groups. It's a little bluesier than I've heard it done before, but it's the same tune. The repeating background vocal-line "...I'm a warrior...on the battlefield..." with another layer of vocals over the top. Of course the old tunes had over-laid vocals that were sort of religious in nature as opposed to the ones laid over that outro, which were more... er... confrontational to the status-quo or "da man" I guess! laugh.gif
Un-plugged is not the same as
