My 2 bits... I started listening Hip hop in 84 and majority of the music I listened to was sampled. Hip hop back then was not quite a house hold name and the hip hop music section in the record store was small. It was not until it was a commercial sucecess when people started to notice and say "HEY... THATS MY SONG, ONLY LOOPED!"
If you have someone play guitar on your album the guy gets paid. So you sampled his guitar and looped it... I think the guy is owned money. Unless you take it, tweek it, chop it up and it becomes something different... naw you should not have to pay.
All if this has taken the fun out of music... I see the point each side makes. I am more partial towards sampling, but dont rip the shit off.
