If you look at most independant rap records that use samples, they don't clear samples.

Usually if it's credited inside, it's been cleared. Clearing samples can cost between 1000-100,000 dollars, or in many cases they won't be cleared at all or maybe you could never find the copyright holders.

Many times, the artists themselves don't even own the copyrights to their own music and the outrageous amount of money that is asked to clear the sample is from the record label or defunct publishing company that hears "rap sample" and sees green, while the artist and/or their family is living in a trailer somewhere and never sees a dime.

The day I'm rich, I'll gladly sit down with every and any artist I've sampled and break bread with THAT artist, until then I'm not going to pay labels and publishing companies with imaginary money that I don't have out of my pocket. I'm all for giving credit where it's due, but I can't in writing for the above reasons.

If you post sample sources in any type of semi-permanent way (internet forums, web journals, etc.) there are lawyers who make a living finding uncleared samples (a simple google search can do it) and suing for them. Talk about it amongst your friends, enemies, at shows, via e-mail, inbox, but unless you want 9th Wonder, RJD2, El-P and all of your other favorite indie producers to go the Swizz Beats route, don't just post up sample sources with entire song titles and artists.

Peace!

Hors sujet : c est assez marrant de voir comment il modere les questions sur ses samples sur le forum en questiond ailleurs
