spot the difference: Charles got a woman and West got a “gold digger”

Gentlemen, what's on your mind? "She gives me money…” or "She takes my money…" ?

Some people believe Ray Charles’ song “I got a woman” was the first hit that led what later became termed as soul music due to its fusion of R'n'B, Gospel and Jazz. More than 50 years after, the song’s sample was recovered by Kanye West for the smash hit “Gold Digger”. This release became the most successful digital sales debut ever and was one of the first songs in history that sold over a million downloads only in the United States.

To Ray Charles she is a very supportive woman who helps him out in many ways. To Kanye West she is a girl who is after a guy for his money.
