Two points:
1. Kanye and Diddy probably aren't the best examples of awesomeness. Sean Kingston really isn't either.
2. Sampling is not the same as stealing notes for two reasons:
a. Sampling requires permission from the original author, unless the song is in the public domain or the sampler enjoys being sued.
b. Sampling is just that, sampling. Nobody is lead to believe the sample is an original work.
