Modern hip hop generally doesn't "take out" the backing via EQ, it samples parts of songs that are instrumental only. (Or, in Kanye fashion, leave a vocal part in and speed the sample up.) This is done by doing what every producer must do: spend hours listening through 1,000's of tracks looking for a sampleable piece of music. Welcome to the world of hip hop production.
