they are not creative/orginal...

they dont rip it off silly, Its called SAMPLING. the original bands makes money from the rappers that sample their music AND rappers are not the only musicians that sample. Just about every musics category does it

not all of them. just the mainstream artists. they love to sample. some sound good, and some dont. hahahah.

there is a fine line between doing it right and doing it wrong.

right - do something new and unexpected with a melody that people expect to be a certain way. like the roots or wu tang clan have done many times.

wrong - using a sample over and over with no variety or imagination. or using a sample to make a song that is not as good or better than the oiginal. case in point - kanye west with his use of daft punk's "faster stronger". the real song is so much better, kanye just has the same melody repeat and fills in the rest with his increasingly narcissistic lyrics

either way, at least they recognize the talent and creativity of others.

'Cause it's the easiest way to earn money nowadays!

I used to think the same thing, but if you can find a good sample and use it for a new song (notice the word new) then you are doing something good. I have no problem with that. the rights are purchased to use portions of songs, so it's not stealing. More like piggy backing from a good idea. The tv was made, and someone piggy backed from that and made a remote. That's a good idea don't you think? Or would you say that's stealing?
