A very, VERY touchy subject: Sampling. What we do on KevinNottingham.com is compile samples from classic albums or even modern classics, and put all the old joints out there for people to enjoy. Frankly, the question is raised on many occasions: "is it right?" Everyone will have their two cents. Here, Nicolay and Phonte drop their opinions on the situation and what sites like a KevinNottingham.com or a HipHopIsRead.com do. While the challenge should be raised to "find it yourself," both artists seem to understand the meaning of what we are trying to do. Moreover, Phonte talks about a favourite sample of his, "Light My Fire" by the Free Design, and how a producer flipped the hell out of it. Nic further talks about using live instrumentation verses using a sample, and how a good sample really can't be ignored. Indeed, a very critical part in this series. What up Keezy!
