I dont think sampling is automatically stealing because the artist can take something old and turn it into a completely different vibe. To me it becomes more like borrowing a piece of something and making it your own, as long as the original artist isnt just being erased. #hwa3 #sampling

I don't really see it as a homage but I simply just think he saw the potential and knew what kind of personal spin he could put on it to suit his style of music #hwa3 #sampling

Kanye's version feels like somewhere in the middle of homage and theft because the meaning almost feels like the opposite of the other 2 songs, but that's also artistic freedom, so.. #hwa3 #sampling

Kayne's "Gold Digger" felt like a homage because of Ray Charles message of money in the song. Kayne simply tied the message to the modern day and expressed it through his style of music which is the best form of a compliment and a grat homage #hwa3 #sampling

Kanye's "Gold Digger" doesn't fall completely in the lines of theft because he did sample it and give(?) the og band credit (i'd hope so), so i'd consider it homage because he's honoring the band but also mixing his own pizzazz into the piece he released #hwa3 #sampling

It felt like theft, he took the song and changed everything about it except the beat. The original meaning was completely gone and replaced. But this does remind me of a quote from r/Reality, "art is theft". #hwa3 #sampling

Gold Digger is like homage, it is not theft because Kanye credited and paid. Ray Charles and then got the sample, and then he further turned it into something new just like Ray Charles did with the gospel song.

Gold digger felt like kind of a propaganda. It takes I got a woman and turns it into a song about how woman can be toxic in his eyes. #hwa3 #sampling

I would say that Kanye does neither theft or homage. It seems more neutral and kind of gives the original sample his own twist. He takes what exists and gives it a different representation. #hwa3 #sampling

#hwa3 #sampling going back to the idea of seeing the past clearly and the future blurry, i would say it was a secret third option of using something familiar as a mechanism to digest something new. we cant live in the past forever, new things will always come. its part of putting yourself out there

@butterflies49.bsky.socialOct 4, 2026, 11:05 PM

I think it feels like homage because he must have chosen to use that song because he thought it was catchy and admired it, although he might have gotten more credit for his song he still brought attention to the song he sampled. #hwa3 #sampling

@piwonskiemil.bsky.socialOct 4, 2026, 10:49 PM

I think it is a homage, it’s taking something that existed before and introducing new reality into it. maybe some lyrics are too much, but that’s the music world we live in now, and it was just mixed with the rhythm of gospel music #hwa3 #sampling

@mischa17.bsky.socialOct 4, 2026, 10:06 PM

I would say that he kind of made it in his own way, like yes, it did sound the same, and I think, but he made it into his own style that fit into this new generation instead of the last two which fit in their old generation

I felt like Kanye's song was theft to a certain degree. It felt like theft in that he used Ray Charles' and Bob King's music style for his own to adapt to his own audience. However, I do not think it was with ill intention. #hwa3 #sampling

@samanthalavender.bsky.socialOct 4, 2026, 8:24 PM

I felt that Kanye West's song wasn't really theft or homage (maybe a little of homage?). I think he actually liked the beat of Ray's song and decided to twist it, make it his taste #hwa3 #sampling

@danielletou.bsky.socialOct 4, 2026, 7:46 PM

i feel like Kanye's version is something different with a tad bit of homage to the versions before it. but it is not theft as it feels totally different, hense it is something different #hwa3 #sampling

@silvanatalia444.bsky.socialOct 4, 2026, 4:12 PM

#hwa3 #sampling homage... Kayne is admiring gold diggers and praising them for wanting someone with money
