[westkoastanostra]

who y'all liked more during this era?

i'ma go with battlecat by an inch.....fredwreck is close though   

[Tha Cali Grizz]

I'd say Cat but Fredwreck ain't far behind.

[Si-Chiggedy]

both

[LAZY]

Battlecat! cant fuck with shit like Dollaz Drank & Dank, Gd Up, Back Up Hoe, alll his shit!

[The King]

I dunno. But my fav battlecat beat is Criminal Set. One of the best beats in the last 5 years!!

[d-nice]

Probably Battlecat but around this time Fred started fuckin wit and learning from Dre. His work was starting to sound more Dre like (Bones Soundtrack, etc) and Fred had 2 of the best teachers on the west to learn from in Dre and Muggs and I am sure he picked up a thing or 2 from Cat but the shit they were dropping along with Meech for Dogghouse was some classic west coast shit.

BATTLE CAT by far i think at times fredwreck is overated but maybe because i haven't heard enough from him.


SOMEBODY TELL ME HIS BEST BEAT

Fred's catalogue is not as big or have as many hits as Battlecat but he also has not been in the game that long. But don't get it twisted he has some heat:

Legend Of Jimmy Bones
Boss Playa
Till Death Do Us Part
Gangsta Nation
Bidness
The Hardest
Space Boogie
Skirt Out
Gangsta Rap
Who Ride With Us (original and remix)

I could go all day, but he has some hits.

my thoughts exactly.  Battlecat is definitely right behind Quik and Dre as best West Coast producer of all time.  I think Fred Wreck is tight as hell too, but he seems very overrated by this forum.  Not because everyone loves his beats, because they are awesome, but does he really have that big of a body of work to be compared to Battlecat?  He seems to not be around too much, so I don't see how his name keeps coming up on the "producers of all time" threads.

BTW, to the other poster, the best Fred Wreck beat IMO is "On Onsite" by Kurupt.  That shit is crazy.

Yessir. And he did Have A Party with 50 Cent and Mobb Deep. That Gangsta Nation beat is my favorite.

Yeah that beat was cold too. You can pretty much drop all of his beats on Tha Streetz and Space Boogie on a list and you can't go wrong. I agree with what you said. Body of work and longevity wise Cat has him beat. I think Fred lately is starting to do more work with other artists other than Dogghouse and DPG. For so long he was just doing beats for them and was kind of like just a in house producer. He is doing work outside of the camp but yeah I give the edge to Cat.

[The King]

Fredwreck also produced Have a Party, great beat.

BATTLECAT no doubt
the dude is a fuckin genius
