I am trying to compile a list of hip-hop songs or r&b songs that have beats or melodies sampled from older songs.
If you could tell me as many as you know or provide a link to a list (not wikipedia, I already found that one), that'd be great.

If you know, can you also say what artist did the original version and the title of that song ( I only know some)?

Ha!!! Name one that doesn't. Lately most rap and r&b songs are rip-offs of the good stuff. Not all--but most.
