Beat-jacking is a hazard of the beatmaking/production game. Accusations regularly fly whenever a well-known beatmaker/producer scores a hit. Such is the case with the song "All The Above" by Maino featuring T-Payne, produced by Just Blaze. To be fair, I've never heard of beatmaker/producer Total Chaos -- the accuser, nor have I heard the beat that he has apparently claimed was jacked. However, in the following video, Just Blaze breaks down the evolution of "All The Above", while seemingly clearing himself from all beat-jacking accusations.
*Note. Video is dope also for the jewels that Just Blaze reveals about the beatmaking/production process.

"As a musical process, beatmaking
beatmaking can be broken down into three separate--
but equally important--spheres: the Technical,
the Logical, and the Creative. The Technical sphere
of hip hop/rap beatmaking refers to
the mechanical processes of making
hip hop/rap music. It involves all the steps
associated with operating various Electronic Music
Production Instruments (EMPIs). This is the sphere where
things like sampling, chopping, looping, sequencing,
recording, mixing, mastering, and such come into play." -Sa'id
