And while were on the subject... this is an interesting thesis and some of the best-thought-out writing on hip-hop and intellectual property law. As Shocklee explains it, The reason why we sampled in the beginning was that we couldn’t afford to have a guitar player come in and play on our record. We couldn’t afford to have that horn section…or the string sections. We were like scavengers, going through the garbage bin and finding whatever we could from our old dusty records. In a complete paradigm shift, today its probably less expensive to hire those string sections than to sample them.
