What are some hip hop songs/albums/artists that use the sped-up RPM voices (like the Chimpmunk's sound) and/or horn samples well in their songs?

I don't really like hip hop (with the exception of older stuff like RUN DMC and Beastie Boys). However, once in a while I come across some tracks that I really enjoy, like these
two songs by Wiley and
this one by Azaelia Banks. Any other artists / tracks with a similar vibe that I should be listening to?

Can you help me find this hip-hop song, and/or the nerdy online article that analyzed part of it? Theme: so many stacks of money that you could lay on them, like a bed

When rappers say "one time for the .../two times for the ...", what are they referring to? If I'm watching a concert, what am I supposed to do?

[NoveltySongFilter] I am compiling lists of the following:
1. Bad hiphop tracks from the soundtracks of films from the late 80s and early 90s that summarized the plot during the end credits. You remember...Organized Krime's joint from the end of
TMNT 2: The Secret of the Ooze or Tag Team's reprise of their hit "Whoomp, There it is" for
Addam's Family Values.
2. Hidden, unlisted and secret joke tracks from the end of albums. Off the top of my head I can only think of more dreck from the mid-90s like Korn's track with Cheech Marin from
Follow the Leader or the Green Day track "All by Myself" from
Dookie
3. Backwards masking. Kiss and the Beatles were accused of doing it so bands like Ministry thought it would be a good idea. Who else?
4. Funk or soul songs with theremin.
Please add to my list.
