There might be more to what he said about it but I think he's underselling the artistry of sampling.

As I posted in the literature thread I just read his book. He sampled **** all the time. He goes into great detail about what machines he used and how working samples is the same as playing any other instrument. It’s up to you what you do with it.
I consider him... I mean he’s so high up among the artists who can create fantastic sonic landscapes. Best best best... I don’t know - I’m growing weary of my hyperbolic self but let’s just say he’s my very favorite sound architect in all of hip hop. I consider him right there with Miles Davis in terms of importance.
