I know part of the "Name that sample" game was to be a statement about the current state of sampling, but is there a solution for today's sampling woes.

Like what would it take? Would every record label have to flex its muscles? Would every artist need to make it their top priority?

Is it just a question of promotion? I mean if we got MTV news, all the music mags, internet sites talking about sampling wouldnt it bring up the public awareness about the issue? make it less shady.

Or is this just going to be one of the those things that isnt going to change?

Oh well those were a whole lot of questions, most prob. w/o answers or if they do have answers tehy are too depressing.

Either way I'll support OKP Tour 2001: Free the Sample or spirit's law fund which ever would help more.
