It's because he really doesn't make any of the music. He lets others make it and gives ideas. That's the reason why you don't ever see him playing, or making anything. He is a producer, but I doubt he's ever done anything like that.

This guy thinks he's slick. Just conveniently mentioning Toto Africa when talking about Rihanna's Diamonds. Who knows how many other beats from the past he's taken from. And not just him, most of the producers today. Whether intentional or unintentional the music that yours is similar too, should be compensated. They are lucky Toto hasn't sued.
