These days almost every song includes a sample. I'm not opposed to sampling especially when the song is a hit. Here are a few songs and the original songs they were sampled from.
Jay Z: Empire State of Mind
Here is the original The Moments: Love On A Two Way Street
Another sample used for Empire State OF Mind Issac Hayes: The Breakthrough
Kanye West: Champion
Original Steely Dan: Kid Charlemagne
Kanye West: Good Life
Michael Jackson: PYT
Mya: The Man In My Life (This is kind of a cover/sample)
LL Cool J: Hey Lover
The Original Michael Jackson: Lady In My Life
I will be posting more of these...
