Yes a lot of beats are composed from pieces of others, but for every piece there has to be an original, and that is what I refer to in my posts. Use Dr.Dre for example, beats have to be made from scratch. But yeah, lots of false talent. Dr. Dre's beats are always ripped off from old Funk songs. Every one I heard(unfortunately) has been. He rips off old Parliament/Funkadelic/George Clinton songs at every opportunity. All of those old Dr. Dre and Snoop Doggy Dogg and Tupac songs from the early 90s always sampled aka ripped off old Funk and R&B songs, I can't think of one that I have heard that wasn't. Ice Cube always did it to. I heard that song of his called It Was A Good Day,,, I was like isn't that the Isley Brothers? Well it was the Isley Brother's song Foosteps In the Dark with Ice Cube talking shi# over it. But who cares about (c)rap anyways? It's a plague on society.
