"La Di Da Di", "Mona Lisa" and "Children's Story" are among his best known songs, with "La Di Da Di" being covered nearly word-for-word by Snoop Dogg on his 1993 album Doggystyle, and lines from "La Di Da Di" being borrowed by multiple high profile artists. "Children's Story" was sampled by Montell Jordan for his 1995 hit, "This Is How We Do It", and Everlast covered it for his album Eat at Whitey's. Eminem also borrowed from the song extensively in his diss song "Can-I-Bitch". "Children's Story" was also covered with similar lyrics by the MC duo Black Star on their 1998 album, Mos Def and Talib Kweli are Black Star, as well as by Tricky on the album Nearly God, with the same name and lyrics, Rapper The Game also did a similar song which was named "Compton Story" he puts on a voice like Slick Rick's throughout the track and tells a story, this rap was on the Mixtape BWS Radio 5 made in 2008. The chorus of Notorious B.I.G.'s song "Hypnotize" also comes from "La Di Da Di".

I think it's time to change to Benzino's signature...

Yes he was purposely parodying the song.

Slick Rick had a big influence on Em. Probably the reason Em has a very British sense of irony given the fact Slick Rick is that.

He didn't copy it, it was a very obvious, re-make of the song. Just like when he re-made "Hail Mary" (2Pac) to go at Ja Rule. Re-writing the lyrics.

I see it as a tribute kinda. As meantioned, like hail mary..
