Cantaloop
"Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)" is a song by British jazz-rap group Us3, originally released in October 1992 by Blue Note Records as the lead single from the group's debut album, Hand On the Torch (1993). The song was recorded as a demo a year before the group's first release and features a sample of Herbie Hancock's song "Cantaloupe Island". "Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)" did not chart in the group's native UK, but in the US, it reached No. 9 and 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Cash Box Top 100, becoming the group's only top 40 single. It was subsequently re-released in UK where it peaked at No. 23. Its accompanying music video was directed by Charles Wittenmeier and won an award at the 1994 Billboard Music Video Awards. The song was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on 25 March 1994 for selling over 500,000 copies.
