Straight up, i just read a dope article on Johnny J and it reminded me of how dope he was. Picture Me Rolling, All Eyez On Me, Life Goes On, Crazy Dangerous (the only Nate Dogg song worth listening to) and so many others...

in my opinion Big Stretch was a better producer than Johnny J.   i'm not even going to bring up Dre or Premo or RZA



Stretch produced:

-Pain
-Life's So Hard (OG)
-Bury me a G
-Only Fear of Death
-God Bless the Dead
-Under Pressure
-Holler If You Hear Me  (Both versions)
-Stay True
-The Streetz R Death Row
-Crooked Ass Niggas
-Crooked Nigga 2 (og)
-Tha Luntic
-5 Deadly Venomz
-Hellrazor (og)
-Judgement Day
-Enemies with me (og)
-House of Pain (og)
-Nothing To Lose
-Danger Times
-Street fame  (thug life version)
-Strugglin
-Don't Fuck With a Killa (og)
-Thug 4 Life (og)
-Flex

not to mention he produced "Take it in blood" and "silent murder" for nas.  and all the Live Squad classic shit...




i happen to be a bigger fan of Pre-death row pac...granted i love makaveli era tracks and all eyez era, don't get me wrong. 


you can't fuck with the raw Stretch beats though.

those are all samples with drum loops. johnny j made real music. he would replay samples, add synths, basslines, had a good ear for puttin shit together. stretchs production was amateur compared to johnny j

Johnny J is the greatest producer of all time

Fuck outta here you faggot.

[Mietek23]

I think noone should use that "G.O.A.T." tittle but let's put it that way:


If 'Pac was the most influential rapper of all-time, then Johnny 'J' was the most underrated producer of all-time..


and LOL to dudes saying that Stretch or DJ Khalil are better than J - I like both of them but let's not be ridiculous.

[KURUPTION-81]

Johnny J def made some classics but i wouldnt say he was the greatest.

greatest producer of all time


what the fuck is wrong with these niggaz ? is he serious calling johnny j the greatest producer of all time

[13th Duke]

Johnny J isn't even one of the top 10 greatest producers of all time never mind the greatest. No doubting he's good mind but lets not get silly!

[V2DHeart]

Johnny J was great when he had the equipment/studio with high-spec equipment to work with, unfortunately with his own, and during his later years, his material wasn't as far polished as his earlier work, but his earlier work was incredible without a doubt, and he was a very under-rated producer. Had his portfolio allowed him to work with bigger mainstream artists after 97, and in top notch studios I feel he would have been considered one of the greatest very easily, because the man was talented, but because of the later material, I think many would overlook that statement very easily, myself included, but I do wish he would have been behind a lot more of the remixes that Amaru put out

Changing that subject entirely, and focusing on his type of production, his type of production was more genuine and musical than most types of successful producers - Hi-Tek, Storch, and so on, which those of us who prefer that type of production would rate him higher than those 2 I have mentioned.

On a personal note, I'd probably rate him among the top 10, but at the lower end
