XXL's 50 greatest Dr Dre beats ......

[Paul]

Nothing but a G thang first, i think no one is gonna argue with that..

Still DRE would be my 1

Everyone needs to stop complaining about whats on and whats not on the list.

True, I think the list is ok, ....but cmon: Game Dont Wait REMIX not on a that Top 50 list is downright ridiculous. how can they forget about this cut?

[shoo]

the whole list is a disgrace. Disgrace to all these cats who have made half of these beats.

[Tutlock]

I stopped reading after i saw "Natural Born Killaz" at 49. Fuckin bullshit list.

agreed.

so the best dre beat ever is the one where he hasn´t done shit to the original sample , just looped it, lol . i love the song no doubt but it´s not like he or his ghost producers/musicians did anything to the original

[darqawa]

Am I the only one who likes Dayz of Wayback and thought it should be on here?

[Gamestarr]

LOL at #21 ...Mahogany produced that , not Dr Dre

Yeah.. lame its mentioned.. otherwise it was a good read.. I will probably forget the list within the next few days..

[Quadruple OG]

Glad that "Outta Control (Remix)" and "Ask Yourself a Question" got mentioned, but there's a lot of other choices that could have made the list easily:

Eminem "Role Model"
The D.O.C. "Formula"
Knoc-turn'al "Str8 Westcoast"
Snoop Dogg "Bitch Please"
Snoop Dogg "Just Dippin'"
Dr. Dre "Big Ego's"
Stat Quo "Get Low"
Mary J. Blige and Eve "Not Today"

[white Boy]

I never liked the Nas is Coming beat, I thought it was a letdown

cosign

33. “Outta Control” Remix — 50 Cent (2006)
Album: The Massacre
The Mighty D-R-E slimmed down his G-Funk sound for the clubs, with this 2006 cut that you could easily dance to or play the wall and bop your head with the rest of the thugs

too low down, but in there at least

shit i forgot about this, love it!

ultimately, its not a bad list, any kind of list like this will have a lot of disagreements...

Bitch please is on the list

no your right, and Alwayz into something is a gfunk classic as well. I think they didn't wanna include too many from the same album that wasn't Dre's. Personally I liked Hennessey And Buddah over Lay Low

[rhythmalism]

Dre got too many classic beats. The list should be the 100 best beats by Dr. Dre.

It's funny how on "Spray Yourself" they mention DJ Yella's co-production and yet fail to mention Sam Sneed on "Natural Born Killaz" and Daz on "Affro Puffs". Seriously, they get NO love from XXL. That reminds me of the december 2008 issue i think where they showed a 1998 picture of over 50 rappers gather in NYC, Daz was on that picture but wasnt even mentioned by XXL... smh...

Also they forgot to mention Mel-Man, Scott Storch, Mike Elizondo and a whole bunch of other people.
