I cant agree on Neptunes. They're hot, but not hot like a fresh barbeque, but like a fresh piece of shit. They're listenable only when they work for Mystikal, cause that evil motherfucker squeezes some diversity outta them. In other situations, there's only one beat from them that doesnt look like all others - Got Yo Money by ODB. So pleeeeze dont put em in there.

RZA is the best for me. Dre gets more & more repetitive, and Soopafly is too underground. WuTang doesnt sell shit nowadays though.

In this order:

DJ Quik(the greatest!)
Warren-G
Soopafly
DJ Premier
Dr. Dre


I know y'all are wondering why I put Dre in last, well to me he only makes good beats for himself and Snoop. Besides that, his beats are just boring.

i don't know if you guys are going by personal preferance or by ACTUAL talent...i sure hope y'all are putting up personal preferance becuase some of your lists are a lil...umm...anyway


my personal favorite producers are:

1. Dr. Dre
2. organized noise
3. dj muggs
4. earthtone III
5. timbaland


and the best actual talents in production field are:

1. dr. dre
2. dj quik
3. automator
4. organizd noise
5. timbaland


timbo was 2nd last year but he's slumping here recently and the actual quality and imagination is decreased

dre is the best becuase his mixing, melody, and persicivness

quik is second becuase of his arrangment skills
automator is 3rd cuz he's  so off the wall and turns weird shit into something beautiful

orannized is 4th becuase of their straight up nack for enovative levels of funk

1. Dr.Dre (with) Mel-Man


Dre & Mel aren't the duo they use to be.  Now a days, they rarely co-produce, as Mel-Man has done many solo tracks like "Dogg Named Snoop," "Benefit Of The Dobut," "No" and "Bounce."  Dre too, most of his latest work has been solo.  I think the last time they did a track together was, "Sally."  They didn't do anything together in 2001 besides that.  Dre co-produced with Mike Elizondo and Scott Storch a few times, but the rest if was Dre solo on "Scorpion," "Devil's Night," "Family Affair," "Str8 West Coast," "Genesis," "Hate In Yo Eyes" and "Lookin At You."  The last time they really worked together on a whole album was "The Marshall Mathers LP"  I'm sure on "Detox" or Em's next album they will reunite.  Peace.

Yeah, and MelMan did that "I pledge allegiance" alone too. But when they do hook up, its pure magic. Dre always got a right-hand in the studio, and also he overlookin much of his protege's work, you'll often see that Dre mixes his protege's songs. He overlooks all of Snoops producers, Wreck, Roll, B'cat, Wells, and he also uses Storch very much as right-hand. I wonder if Michael Elizondo will produce on his own soon, or just continue workin with Dre. Dre overlooks Eminem too, so Dre's formin' a army of producers, and if they do good, they can be Dre's Next.N.I.C, while Dre be the H.N.I.C. of  the whole shit. So when Dre one day retires, you'll have Scott Storch, Fred Wreck & maybe others ready to take over the heritage, bringin the Dre-sound further, or if not further, then at least on.

mike elizando is just a bass and guitarist, i think he plays a little bit of keyboard too but from what i've heard he's just a guitarist/bassist

The only time Mike Elizondo has produced was with Dre, where he co-produced, "Hennessey & Buddah," "True Lies," "Lay Low" and "Your Wife."  I never heard him do a solo track...yet.  I know he will eventually form his own label and start producing on his own with the help of Dre.
