"Control" is a song by American rapper Big Sean, featuring fellow American rappers Kendrick Lamar and Jay Electronica. It entered US mainstream urban radio on August 14, 2013, via GOOD Music and Def Jam Recordings, as a promotional single. It was originally meant for Electronica's planned studio album Act II: The Patents of Nobility (The Turn) (2020), but it was later given to Big Sean for his second studio album Hall of Fame (2013). It was ultimately cut from that album due to sample clearance issues. Written by all three artists and its producer No I.D., "Control" contains samples such as "Where I'm From" (1997) by Jay-Z, "El pueblo unido jamás será vencido" (1974) by Quilapayún and Sergio Ortega, and an interpolation of "Get Bizy" (2011) by Terrace Martin. Receiving widespread critical acclaim from music critics and media scrutiny, Lamar's performance in particular was lauded as a "wake-up call" for the hip hop industry. Lamar's Twitter account and Wikipedia article received increased internet traffic as a direct result of the release of the track.
