Walter Hagen-Groll, Chor der Deutschen Oper Berlin, Orchester der Deutschen Oper Berlin, Eugen Jochum – Carmina Burana: Fortuna imperatrix mundi: I. O Fortuna
From the counter

That choir behind "Hate Me Now" belongs to Carl Orff, and the Deutsche Oper Berlin forces under Eugen Jochum had it on record back in 1968. Hear it without the drums first; it makes Nas sound like he picked a fight with an opera house.
