i'd say No and Yes.
No, because they can sue if the beat is copyrighted.
Most of them have hundreds of beats on their pages on soundclick, and im sure the majority of the beats arent copyrighted.(copyrights cost money.)
There are a million artist performin to vybe songs in the clubs and parties, with the tag and everything, but i doubt he gonna sue all of them.
Usually a producer wont sue unless the song gets really big,
and the artist is making alot of money, which most dont.
Roscoe Dash the only nigga i know that blew up from a soundclick beat. (vybe beatz(all the way turnt up).)
He later had one of his producers (k.e.) remake the beat, most likely to prevent any legal claims from vybe.
Yes, because its a large chance they wont ever find out, and if they do you think they gonna sue you ??
Especially if you havnt made in the thousands, hundred thousands, or millions of dollars.
Also most dont even have the money to hire a lawyer and go through all that.
Alas, if you have extremely strict ethics, then you wouldnt perform the song.
BUT if you LEASE IT, then you can perform for the specific amount of times AND sell it for the specific amount of times stated within the contract guidelines of that producer.
^^^(regarding if the beat isnt sampled, or is sampled and cleared)

kanye knows what thats like.
But the owners of people thats sampled dont sue until the song really blows up and they see large profits are gained, as they want to reap a percentage of the benefits, (same concept of if you use a copy-written beat without leasing/buying, and blow up.)
