When will artists learn ?

[Meho]

That having one producer doing the whole = great album.

Im bumping R.Kellys new album for the past few days, its great and guess what Kells did all the tracks. Same goes for Clipse latest album, both Akon alubms, Commnons Be and I bet his new one is gonna be crazy too, since Kanye is doing like 8 tracks out of 12.

[G. Sean Peters]

Yeah an album turns out way better with one producer doing the majority of the album. R Kellys album is better than i expected it to be.

[Paul]

what did you think of dogg chit considering daz handled all the production?

i love the akon albums, roscoe's i luv cali was done by fingazz


good post

[DRYLBC]

ive also noticed that...for example timbaland handling 3 albums (j.t , furtado , his own ) and they all can out hot


DR.DRE aint a bad example neither


 

[G. Sean Peters]

Yeah Fingazz produced  Kokane's Back 2 Tha Clap and alot of Lil Robs Twelve Eighteen Part 1. Both bangin albums.

[The-Leak (aka) kingwell (bka) JULES]

FINGAZZ DID ROSCOE - I LUV CALI.  GREAT ALBUM.

[Tanjential]

AGREED.

[TRG]

totally agree, good exaples of kokanes album, roscoes, D.O.C.'s, Eazy-E's all great albums

[1980DRE]

True...... being that the producer DOES control the mood and or direction of emotion of the album...... too many people = too many directions = confused listener...

[Sanford - V. President of the Dangerous Crew Movement]

maybe a reason why artists have so many different producers on thier album is because they think if they have a different sounding sound throught the whole album, they will track more a wider of an audince?

nevertheless Timbo, having one producer does keep the album more consistant.  i agree with you.   

[Tanjential]

True...... being that the producer DOES control the mood and or direction of emotion of the album...... too many people = too many directions = confused listener...

even worse, NO direction, unchallenged/unfulfilled listener.

[Lunatic]

AGREED.

It started with Pac and Biggie with all the producers. Their double cds is what started it.

[devil_may_care]

^True. But both their albums worked well with a lot of different producers. I can't imagine a double CD with just one producer.

[Elevz]

I guess it all depends. Some producers are well capable of putting together a really solid album for a rapper to lace. It's more of a style issue, why we all love to see albums done by just Nas/Premier, Common/Kanye, etc. because these producers really know how to melt together a satisfying album together with the artist. But as much as there's a guaranteed hit when producer so-and-so did the first single, most of the time it's exactly this type of producer who will not be able to glue together a solid album. Can you imagine enjoying an album entirely produced by Scott Storch or Denaun Porter?
