Description: King Records was an American label founded in 1943 by Syd Nathan in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. The label owned several divisions, including Federal Records, which launched the career of James Brown. It released original material until 1975. Initially King specialized in country music, at the time known as hillbilly music. King advertised, "If it's a King, It's a Hillbilly – If it's a Hillbilly, it's a King." One of the label's hits was "I'm Using My Bible for a Road Map" by Reno and Smiley. Important recordings in this field were done by the Delmore Brothers and Wayne Raney.

Description: Bobby Byrd. 1971. Produced by James Brown with the J.B.'s, released on King Records — the record most credited with kicking off hip hop's love affair with James Brown samples. Eric B. & Rakim built their own "I Know You Got Soul" around it in 1987. From there it spread everywhere — sampled on well over a hundred records since. Set in Lettro, then taken apart and rebuilt by hand — every flourish, swash, and joint reworked until the base font is barely recognisable. Dark brown fill, white inline, orange outer ring. Every My Type of Lyrics shirt carries a Spotify code. Scan it and the original plays. Instant. If you were there — you already know. If you weren't — scan the code first, then order the shirt.
