Spotify acquired WhoSampled, the fan-built database tracking 1.2 million songs and 622,000 samples, to power its new SongDNA feature for Premium users, revealing song origins, credits, and inspirations. Producers like Nicholas Craven and Statik Selektah worry it will expose uncleared samples, leading to takedowns that hurt indie artists rooted in hip-hop's DIY sampling tradition. Others cheer the transparency, saying it honors music history and ensures original creators get credit and compensation, turning a community tool into a broader discovery resource.

Key Takeaway

Hip-hop producers have long lived by 'no sample snitching'—never publicly revealing uncleared samples to avoid lawsuits. Now Spotify's purchase of WhoSampled is testing that code, with fans and creators clashing over creativity versus fair pay.
