depends whos doing it.
If an ARTIST does it then usually they take popular beats from other rappers and freestyle over them. (Cellski's mixtapes)
If a DJ does it then it is a compilation of sorts, showcasing rappers and mixing and scratching songs and sometimes if they are more skilles they will have a rappers lyrics ride over a different beat.(DJ Mark7 type of stuff, check out the frisco legends that mark did that is a good comp type using mixed transitions between classic songs)
Mixtapes are mostly promotional uses only that is what allows beats to be jack and $ made off of them.
