12.05.08 at 7:35 pm
Come on Now
Any body that has followed Kanye and been a fan of his, should know that he samples a lot of his songs. If this surprises you, then I don’t know what to tell you. Besides the whole industry samples shit, so what is the problem. Let the dude rock, you gain your own opinion. He took songs from the past and put his own twist on it. No body on here can’t tell me that ya have not did something like that whether it be music or whatever. People act like they wasn’t knocking to all the songs on there or at least half.
12.05.08 at 7:36 pm
moneycash
I look that this nigga differently, no wonder he doesn’t listen to rap, he’s trying to find the next old school song he’s gonna fucking bite off. He’s not just sampling a little peice of a song, its almost the whole fucking thing, Seems like all the beats on Graduation was sampled.
12.05.08 at 7:39 pm
DetroitUndaGround
How can you niggas shit on the niggas who made the originals. those are the real niggas making making real music. its cool to sample sometimes. no doubt. but shit, make some original music off the top of your head sometimes. thats creativety.
12.05.08 at 7:51 pm
FrontTailPenis
da dude make good music, fullstop. he is kinda heavy on the sampling, but he doin his thing you kno? theres alot of good producers out there TONZ, but they aint consistent. i havent heard from heatmakerz in a while or maybe i did and didnt kno. dipset was heavy! cam fucked that up *smh*
really i was nice, they ought to be in da garbage bin// some of these rappers perhaps need to help out hershy with packaging//…..

@Everybody critizing him for sampling
Would you say the same things about Just Blaze, Swizz Beats, Danger Mouse, Jay Electronica, Pett Rock, J Dilla, Q-Tip ect almost every song on Dre’s “The Cronic” contained samples? Yall are acting like some kind of hip-hop beginners sampling is an art if you do it right none of you would even know 90% of those original tracks if you never saw this video Ye and his people dig in the crates.
12.05.08 at 8:03 pm
Maktub
He doesn’t have to pay for the samples if its older than 20 years I think…something like that.
Anyway..he’s a genius. Why are people hating..this dude sampled 3 words of some old white persons hook and made it a hit song..or sampled some wack ass song that I would’ve never in a million years of listened to..and made an absolute fuckin Classics out of the samples.
Muthafuckas always like shitting on other people..Sampling has BEEN apart of Hiphop, and it always will be..So “Eat Shit & Dieeeeee” looool
12.05.08 at 8:13 pm
ejm205
Its is somewhat genius to create something totally different from something else but some of kanyes songs and many other people who sample just speed up a sample and add drums which is NOT creative.
But a good example of being creative is what Just Blaze did to “I’m Not To Blame” by Bobby Byrd to create Jay Z’s You Dont Know
12.05.08 at 8:35 pm
brooklyn go hard
damn ya motherfuckers is straight haters youd be so fuckin surprised with all the motherfuckers who straight bit mad old song only problem is ya wouldnt know because youve never heard those songs this shit is a montage of this great ass production kanye do the dude got tracks where he dont sample shit cant tell me nothing is one of those ya should be happy he samples it puts you on to old music that otherwise you wouldnt even listen to

First off, does anyone realize that hip-hop/rap began from a sample?
And second, as a young (teen) lover of music, KAnye has helped to introduce me to some of the sounds in music’s glory days. As a matter of fact, Kanye is making these artists relevant by sampling them so younger generations can pick up on it (if they wanna do the research like the cat who made the video.) If you’re gonan hate on Kanye, then you gotta spray the haterade on everyone else too.
BTW: musical samples are just as bad as people who reuse and steal, share, and reuse the same damn lines continuously in their songs

i cant believe this isnt common knowledge, shouldnt be any confusion you gotta admit that there are some samples that he has rendered unrecognizable and therefore made something completely new out of them no he didnt make them better songs because that’s damn near impossible he just adapted them and made them more accessible to the hiphoppers ear hate it or love but kanye is raps most valuable asset

thank yo rtny for posting this. I was lookin for some of the joints he samples. and this post draws the line between real music niggas and frauds. all this does is show u the range in what type of shit he listens to, and how he can turn a hot line into a hot song. all producers do this, but he goes in a diff direction wit it. in order to fully understand the music u gotta know its history and half of yall niggas don’t study. remember when krs1 was hatin on kanye, his most famous song “the bridge is over” is copied from willie nelson. all music lovers want to know where the beats came from, when u buy ur cd, do u open the booklet and read the credits to find the samples used, I do. dipset and heatmakers had sum of the best samples few yrs back. premo, pete rock, jut blaze, kanye, timbo. those are the best producers we’ve ever had, and dr.dre is totally overrated beatmakin and lyrically he’s average at best
12.06.08 at 12:45 pm
MKilla
^^ nigga how you gonna call dre overrated, hes well earned his reputation as a deep beat producer, cant tell me that nigga dont put some gritty ass emotion into his beats, and thats real talk right there. Ye got ill production skills but dont use this post as a gateway to hatin on dre nigga
12.06.08 at 12:47 pm
for real??
y’all some ignorant @sses….
do you even know the history of the music??? look at the liner (oh i’m sorry y’all probably don’t even support) of your favorite emcee’s and i guarantee that they say “CONTAINS SAMPLE FROM…” OR “CONTAINS EXCERPT FROM…” rap AND r&b alike!!
y’all might hate kanye’s music or whatever…that’s fine but don’t confuse the talent that he has with “swagger jackin”… none of y’all can do it.
12.06.08 at 8:24 pm
BLACK RAIN
i mean…. his lyrics are on point… i just dont think he is THAT creative when he samples beats… beats is till ill though… then agian that takes talent…
IS IT JUST ME OR DID HIS NEW VIDEO BITE THE OLD 2PAC VIDEO???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
12.07.08 at 12:56 am

JDilla, Premo, Pete Rock, RZA, Timbaland, Dr.Dre, Black Milk, Nottz, Illmind, Hi-Tek, Needlz, 9th Wonder,and 4th Disciple all sampled. Enough said.
12.09.08 at 3:27 am

LMFAO….He”s a FUCKING HIP HOP PRODUCER!!!! You dumb cunts, do you know what that means! The whole genre is one that samples! Name a producer or group that has never sampled?! You can’t do it!! Even Bambaata sampled Kraftwerk for christ sake.

This is really funny how people’s opinions are making everyone upset. We’re all going to have those who love something, and we definitely will have those who hate. Either way, it’s still opinion. Fact of the matter, Kanye West is a young african-american who has been out since early/mid-90′s, and he is still on the scene today, making millions. If you don’t like him, then why get on a blog and dis’ him” I don’t like everything he has stood for, but who is perfect? I still can learn from the dude, so I’ll always support his craft until he is dead and gone.
