ok here are the two songs,one is called intro,and its by an artist/dj called da predator,its on the compilation hardcore for the headstrong-the resurrection,its a hardcore techno compilation that came out in 2001/2002.the other song is an early 90s belgian hardcore song by an artist called circle of souls,and the song is called future dreams.both songs sample the speech by cyrus,with the latter song just using a sample of cyrus saying "the future"as the hook of the song!!the circle of souls song is on a comp called the best of techno volume two,which came out in 92.there was also a song by the new york metal band biohazard that supposedly either had samples from the movie,or the lyrics were about the movie,dont know which song it is though.

Redman must be Warriors junkie or something, he dubs Cyrus saying "can you dig it" for the chorus of one of his other songs, also, I think on the same album I mentioned before

Just found this text on a website tonight...

The Warriors has been referenced in hip-hop lyrics. Signatures lines like come out and plaaaaaayyy and caaaaan youuuu digggg it? have permeated both mainstream and underground rap and hip-hop. A handful of classic hip hop videos have featured moments from The Warriors rallying die hard fans.

Here are a few tracks that mention The Warriors:

FAT JOE ? Gangbanging Interlude
Jealous Ones Envy

MC TWIST & DEF SQUAD
Comin' Thru Like Warriors

LLOYD BANKS ? S/T

WYCLEF JEAN ? Diallo

THE WARRIORS: HIP HOP: MUSIC VIDEOS

2PAC - California Love

In the original Mad Max version of 2PAC's California Love video, comedian Chris Tucker rallys the troops saying "Caaaan youuuuu dig it?"

In Craig Mack's Flava In Your Ear video, Puff Daddy references The Warriors breathing new life into the line, Baaaad Boy, come out to plaaaaayy...

There's an underground MC from New York I like called Aesop Rock, and on one of his tracks called Maintenance he says:

I keep my ghoul spirit concealed
Until the Warriors return to the Coney Isle Wonder Wheel
