Sampled songs are tracks that incorporate portions of existing music, often called "samples." These samples can include melodies, beats, or vocal snippets from other songs. Artists and producers use sampling to create new music while paying homage to the original works. The process of sampling typically involves obtaining permission from the original song's copyright holder. This practice is common in genres like hip-hop, electronic, and pop, where producers creatively blend different sounds to produce fresh and innovative tracks. Notable examples of sampled songs include Kanye West's "Stronger," which samples Daft Punk's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger."
