Seems like the UR sample on Are You Happy is confirmed:

replying to my own post (from october '21)

was listening to the latest jpegmafia album 
(https://jpegmafia.bandcamp.com/album/scaring-the-hoes) and behold: another 
song where he's using a detroit classic: 'cosmic raindance' this time on 'run 
the jewels' (https://jpegmafia.bandcamp.com/track/run-the-jewels).

We've had 'Baby's got back', Fedde le Grand, Missy and now JPEGMAFIA. Was 
listening to his new album this morning (still not sure if i like his music or 
not) and heard "Are You Happy?" and i am sure i have heard those words before: 
https://open.spotify.com/track/5zChKVq8kdnWWPbVWezFW8?si=b98c058bcaba4a3d
Don't know if it is a sample (i think so, slowed down) and/or if the words are 
originally from UR or if the words came from somewhere else before, but nice to 
see some Detroit influence and maybe one or two people listening to this 
version seek out the original and end up checking the entire UR back catalogue.
