What Songs Sample The Line I Hate You More In Lyrics?

This is the curt, sentimental take — I enjoy little lyric sleuthing, and "i hate you more" reads like a one-line story. From what I can tell, there isn’t a single iconic sample everyone lifts that contains the exact vocal phrase "i hate you more" credited across multiple big tracks. Instead, artists use the line as raw lyricism in numerous songs and producers sometimes chop similar fragments into new beats without formal credit.

So you’ll find the sentiment all over: pop, R&B, emo and hip-hop all use variants of "I hate you" and sometimes tack on "more" for punch. Songs like 'i hate u, i love u' (Gnash ft. Olivia O'Brien) and 'I Hate U' (SZA) are good reference points for how that diction sounds in modern songs, even if they don’t sample a single origin. The takeaway for me is simple — the phrase is ubiquitous because it’s immediate and viciously honest, and I always get a little fascinated by how different deliveries can flip it from spiteful to heartbreakingly resigned.

Not gonna give you a dry textbook recap — here's the more technical take from my end: I scanned through sampling references mentally and thinking like a producer, and there's no prominent, well-documented instance where a commercial track is credited as sampling the exact vocal string "i hate you more." Sampling culture tends to make big melodic or hook samples easier to trace, while short, commonly uttered phrases often slip under the radar or get replayed/rehummed instead of literally sampled.

What I do know from production practice is that indie and underground producers love to lift tiny phrases and repitch them as texture — that includes fragments like "I hate you" or longer lines that end with "more." Those usages are typically uncredited unless the snippet is clearly identifiable and cleared. So in mainstream catalogues you're more likely to find songs that contain the phrase in their original lyrics (think 'i hate u, i love u' by Gnash or 'I Hate U' by SZA) rather than tracks that list "sample: 'i hate you more'" in their credits.

If you're hunting for a concrete sample origin, the safest route is to scan WhoSampled entries, check the credits on streaming platforms, and compare timestamps on Genius lyric pages to isolate repeated phrases — that will tell you if a later song literally reused an earlier recording. For my money, the emotional heft of "i hate you more" makes it a favorite lyrical turn rather than a famous sampled hook, and I kinda love that artists keep reinventing it in fresh textures.

Wow, this is a neat little lyric-hunt — I dove into it because short vocal fragments like "i hate you more" pop up everywhere in emotion-heavy music, but actual credited samples of that exact line are surprisingly rare.

I looked through lyric sites and sampling databases in my head and from what I can confidently say: there aren't many (if any) well-documented, high-profile songs that officially sample the exact spoken or sung line i hate you more as a standalone, credited sample. What you do find instead are countless songs that contain variants of that sentiment — full lyrics saying "I hate you more" inside verses or choruses — and lots of vocal chops producers use without formal credit (especially in underground electronic, trap, and emo-rap scenes). Examples of mainstream tracks that use the plain "I hate you" phrasing (not necessarily with the exact word "more") are songs like 'i hate u, i love u' by Gnash featuring Olivia O'Brien and 'I Hate U' by SZA, while classic R&B/pop duets like 'Hate That I Love You' by Rihanna & Ne-Yo play with the same emotional space.

If you want something truly sample-based, check the credits on WhoSampled and the liner notes — those are where legally cleared vocal snippets show up. In short: the phrase itself is common as a lyric, but as a recognized, credited sample the exact line "i hate you more" doesn't have a famous, single-origin sample I could point to, at least among mainstream releases. Personally I love how such a short line can carry so much venom and vulnerability depending on delivery — it's a tiny missile of emotion, and that’s why artists keep using it in different ways.
