Feel free to add if anyone knows more about it. It makes me think about what songs got lost in the transition from downloads on bandcamp/myspace/napster/limewire to streaming.Īnyway I can't remember where but I read some interview with Clams Casino a while back about the song. Then there's the organic development of a YouTube graveyard where people talk about their dead loved-ones in the comments of really every popular (25+ million views) upload of the song on YT. And of course people who heard it in Lil B's music and sought out the instrumental.
'I'm God' by Clams Casino and Imogen Heap.

It's interesting though that the instrumental is so much more popular given that (unlike Lil B) the instrumental was never officially distributed anywhere until 2020 (even though its been popular since like 2010). He sent this one to Lil B who, to his credit, recognized how great it was and released his version in 2009 very shortly after it was written. For the artist it was just one of many of songs he distributed to rappers for free for them sample/rap over. People like this song for a ton of reasons. In case someone is interested in this song's unique place in history like I am. I just want to add some other info about the song that I've picked up over the years.
