"Man oh man...
Forgot About Dre, no samples
Explosive, no samples
Still D.R.E, one of my favorite rap beats ever, no samples
What's the Difference, no samples
The Next Episode, no samples"
This is going to be fun...
Forgot about dre... no samples... WRONG... That is a sample from the band "heart"
Xxplosive, no samples... WRONG... That is sampled from Isaac Hayes' "bumpy lament"
"Whats the difference?" no samples... wrong... Charles Aznavour's "Parce que tu crois"
The next episode... no samples... WRONG... David axelrod "the edge"
"Still dre"... (the favorite rap beat ever).... no samples... WRONG... david axelrod "interpolation", and "mental traveler"
And since we are on a dr. dre kick here. Why don't you do yourself a favor and download leon haywood's "Iwanna do something freaky to you" tell me which song that IS EXACTLY.
It looks like somebody didn't do their research did they?
"Meaningful rap songs? How about:
The entire "Straight Outta Compton" album by NWA?
- this album was a landmark in portraying black life in the ghetto. While I don't necessarily relate to the stories that the lyrics tell, it doesn't change the fact that they are rivetng and butally honest. Do you want to learn about poverty, gang violence, and youth anger? Then listen to this album."
I am very familiar with this album. I think it fails miserably in an attempt to show the ghetto's dark side. All it shows is that NWA is a group of very ocky arrogant, and ignorant people. Try these...

Artist: N.W.A. f/ the D.O.C.
Album: Straight Outta Compton
Song: Parental Discretion Iz Advised
(Dr. Dre)
1,2,3 Kick it
(The D.O.C.)
Hey yo, Dre, what's going on, man, what's going on
hey what'cha all gonna do for this last record
No, tell, what'cha all gonna do
Ok, you want me to do the intro, alright
Parental discretion is advised for the moment
While I'm getting candid, now understand it
Ain't too typical in any way, though the pro
On the mic is the D.O. to the C., this is an intro
I know the D.O.C. make ya want to takea valium
So buy a bucket 'cause I'm coming, it's my album
And for the record, meaning my record, check it
Listen to the single and you'll be like, yo, I gotta get it
But in the meantime, listen to the rhyme of the Dr. Dre
Played wit NWA
Yella's on the drum roll, rocking the beat
Hey yo Dre, where are you gonna take this s**t man"
Wow that is AMAZING!!! Bob dylan can move over. These guys are real poets!!
"-if you consider Rage Against the Machine rap (hybrid rap is still rap), try and tell me that their lyrics aren't meaningful.
- the new Kanye West album "Late Registration." He may be an outspoken fool, but his songs are fresh as hell."
Rage against the machine is a rock and roll band. period. Oscar de la roch sounds like he is rapping at times. That was my point.They do not sample. Therefore they are not rap.
Kanye west? Here are some lyrics from his newest song. golddigger.
"
Cutie the bomb
Met her at a beauty salon
With a baby Louis Vuitton
Under her underarm
She said I can tell you ROC
I can tell by ya charm
Far as girls you got a flock
I can tell by ya charm and ya arm
but I'm looking for the one
have you seen her
My psychic told me she'll have a ass like Serena
Trina, Jennifer Lopez, four kids
An I gotta take all they bad ass to show-biz
Ok get ya kids but then they got their friends
I pulled up in the Benz, they all got up in
We all went to Den and then I had to pay
If you fucking with this girl then you better be payed"
WOW!! I'm blown away. He must have spent 12 whole minutes on that one!!
I will quote chuck d
"Stay Free!: What are the origins of sampling in hip-hop?
Chuck D: Sampling basically comes from the fact that rap music is not music. It's rap over music."
There you go, Even Chuck fucking D says that "Rap is not music"
here is the link to that interview...

You have also stated that rapper's are not steal ing beats anymore. This was Mr. No sample Dr. Dre getting sued (and he lost) for umm... sampling...
