Even if that was true, so what? It takes talent to freak a sampler as well. Jay Dee can't play instruments either, from what I hear. He freaks the samples and he's MARVELOUS at it. Surely you don't think he is untalented merely because he can't play a traditional string or wind instrument (or percussion)? Come on now...

Hey, Beats By the Pound is all live instrumentation too. Are they inherently more talented than Premier?
Anyway, point is, you don't have to clown how certain people make music to big up your fam.
Soulquarians are talented. Jay Dee, Chief Xcel, Shadow, Primo, Pete Rock, and lots of sampling cats are talented too. Heed the signoff: spread love.
