hmm... kind of. everything back then was dominated by samples... and producers didn't do a lot of their own mixdowns and what not. just threw together a beat on an MP and passed it off. today, samples don't dominate, and with technology (like you mentioned) it's easier for the beat maker to mix/engineer
again im not taking anything away from the legends but overall the whole game seemed easier back then

Composing from scratch is more complicated

And remember, they were doing this without the convenience of technology.
But at the same time the equipment being used makes it easier
You could argue either point and you wouldnt be wrong
Who is composing from scratch?
Bro technology was way harder back in the days when it came to making beats....oh u never watched mass appeal huh?

a ton of people breh
When zaytoven was creating the trap sound wit gooch, he only got a handful of tracks where he sampled and it was usually another rap track
Same wit Tyler the creator, barely does it
It's moreso because these sampled artists be wantin an arm and a leg these days and dont give a shyt that producers aren't caking like they used to
In that redbull lecture with sonny digital/metro boomin/zaytoven they said sometimes they'll just make something that sounds similar to the sample to get around it
