Billy Squire...man, myth, legend

Um, so I realized that Dizzee Rascal sampled Billy Squire's "Big Beat" in his track "Fix Up, Look Sharp", which is, for lack of a better and less overused word, AWESOME but I just realized that the same track is sampled in Jay-Z's "99 Problems", which is even a more AWESOMER song.

When did a single Billy Squire song become the go to music for rap/grimey tracks?

I don't know when it happened but god bless that it has...magic, pure magic. Let me just put it out right now...the minute someone breaks down Toto's "Hold the Line" it will be a fine, fine day.
