Since everyone is dickriding Dre and Quik and I going a different route.

I say Ant Banks he has produced a lot of classic shit and has just as much talent as Dre or Quik but for some reason he doesn't get any credit.

we can't compare dre & quik anymore.
one is making dark beats and the other still makes real funky melodies.
and imo I love a lot more californian sunny melodic beats than sad NYC beats,
u dig?

DJ Quik for me. Give Quik the same marketing support as Dre/Aftermath gets, and a generic thug rapper and they'd sell just as many under Quik as they would under Dre.

quik has a universal sound, listen to under the influence.

battlecat is the best on the west.  quik takes second place.  historically i'd like to throw pooh or rhythm d in there somewhere, but they haven't done anything lately.

dre is a fraud.  he doesn't do shit on his own,  he only works with bigger budgets and on bigger projects than cat or quik, so the "greater success" aspect is dubious.   people look at dre's track record, but they never count his numerous false starts and fumbles.  dre couldn't get a rakim project done?  what about king tee?  the whole original aftermath thing?   dre's track record is not stellar, and he doesn't even attempt to bring out new artists without a gimmick (like eminem) or some somewhat well known artist (like 50) behind it.  the guy is a fraud.  and warren g (and maybe daz) have to get credit for some of the best tracks on doggystyle.

musically, quik is on a completely different level than dre and it's almost insulting to compare the two. 

and dre doesn't have the diversity of quik or cat.  dre doesn't even attempt to do r&b anymore because he can't cut it.  all he can do is a bland hybrid sort of sound that isn't anything special.  which is why dawn robinson had to shake him.  drop an rc album already!  let chris taylor ghost produce it or whatever.

the guy gets way too much credit.  i don't understand how people can vote for the guy with a studio full of ghost producers.  does dre even deny using ghost producers?

Half of you mothafucka's are smoking serious crack!  Quik use to say the same shit half you mothafucka's are saying about Dre, until I got in the studio with him.  Quik said Dre is a genius in the studio and can't be touched..PERIOD.  Also, Quik mentioned that he didn't do that beat for Truth Hurts and that Dre told him to take the credit to launch his production skills..  Quik said that shit worked for him..  Niggaz don't know what the hell they be talking about..  DRE is the best producer on BOTH coasts cuz we all know that majority of the East Coast producers are just plain WACK!
