Be careful not confuse remixing with sampling. Loads of dubstep relies on samples from hip hop, there really are too many tunes to mention that do that.
Matty G references his own influences in his music, a lot of which is clearly hip hop (taking You Back LP), but also Electro (last b-boy, my 808s) not to mention his side project which is comprised of remixes/re-edits from across all these genres. still manages to push the sound forwards and make something new. Dubstep is a combination sound, and anything which reflects that attitude is a growing breathing living style.
Anyone remember this from a couple of years back?
It was on a free EP with remixes of Pharcydes' Runnin, Dre's California Love and La Luniz' I got 5 on it.
There are two US producers commenting on their own culture via the language of Dubstep. Hip Hop is a state of mind more than any particular sound, same as Dubstep. It's a free-style. The moment you lock it into any one form it dies.
I mean, what does a sound sound like? The present sound is a reference to what has been before and what is yet to come. We are in the middle, now.
This is a good summarisation:
As is this:

I may have been inclined to agree before I heard this:
10 MRK1 & Chimpo remixes there, I'd put three in this top 5 list easily.
Gave me a new perspective on a different style, which I think is one of the main functions of music. I can understand the hate Lil Wayne recieves for some of his content, but hey - so does he. It'll be interesting to see how his career develops, might be too early to write him off after the effect he's had.

Gucci over the Joker beat is definitely working, goes together nicely.
Never heard of Drake till tonight, cheers for the tip. Just found this MRK1 remix of Forever:
His flow reminds me a little bit of of Luda, but in a good way. Ludacris is already a walking talking dubstep remix of Hip Hop, if that makes any sense.
