[QUOTE=willingwelliv;48956358]OK, let's drop the sampling thing and focus on the actual issue. drake and his producers are taken ng advantage of smaller or forgotten tracks to boost their popularity and sales with seemingly zero benefits to the original creator.[/QUOTE] I didn't know who Timmy Thomas was until now so it actually helped the original creator.

[QUOTE=willingwelliv;48956911]All great points and valid arguments. The cha cha song is a direct consequence of this runaway effect of what I would call "heavy sampling". With heavy sampling being a sample that makes a vital and or substantial portion of a song/track. I'll even follow that up with my enjoyment of artists like Portishead and pretty lights who rely on samples heavily, but seem to do so in a more responsible manner. And of course like "the dude " says, that's like, Your opinion man.[/QUOTE] You know they pay these people right? Like a lot of money. Same with Bruno Mars' Uptown Funk, it's just a pop cover of Trinidad James' All Gold Everything. It doesn't make Bruno Mars a bad artist, and Trinidad walks away with a lot of royalties.

What does that say to you about benefits and promoting?
