Let me ask you guys something.If someone like Lenny Kravits, Bruce Springsteen, or Lionel Rithchie made an Album and used lyrics by Nas, Pac, Krs-One (or who ever). What would you say?Rock and RnB ARTISTS put a lot of effort into the melodies they compose for their albums. Then some hip hop producer or DJ hears them, likes them, and steals them. People actually have the odacity to compare which producers make better beats, and then compare Hip Hop albums based on stolen instrumentals. The beatnuts recently bashed JLo for taking there beat, when they stole it themselves.Hip Hop should be judged by the vocals and the vocals alone, because that is the only part of it that is original. Lyrics, Rhyme Patterns, and Flow. Nothing else.You had a thread stating that Rza's production is better than Eminem's. From what I understand Eminem and Jeff Bass originally compose the instrumentals on the album (Eminem Show), RZA samples, he steals melodies and puts them on his tracks. Check the credits. If the original song is older than a certain number of years than it does not have to be credited, but that does not mean that it was not used.I know the producers job is not to create music but to put it together. Ultimately the producer's purpose is to get the album to sell copies in which case Eminem is without a doubt the best producer in the game right now.
Eminem, Dr. Dre, DJ Quik, Mannie Fresh, Timbaland...
