My Restless booklet says produced by Nottz, but I've heard several people say it's by Dre and Nottz.

anytime Dre is involved in a track, he most likely had his hand in producing the track...not necessarily the beat making process, but rather the overall signature sound/thump of the beat....the booklet says produced by Dre & Nottz. Nottz probably came up with the concept of the beat, and Dre probably brought it to life.

Judging by the sound of the beat, I wouldn't be surprised if Dre touched it a lil' bit ;)

Never knew Nottz had anything to do with this track, always assumed it was Dre and Storch. Dre must have had some input at I can't normally stand Nottz's beats.

seems likely that nottz laid the basic loop, dre came in with fixing the drums, extra keys (storch) and mixing. regardless of what any booklet says, thats what the sound of it suggests.

I've had at least 3 copies of "Restless" and i can remember that all of them have said that it's produced by Dre and Nottz.

Dre didn't mix the track either which is another reason I was confused.

I think he did a little more than that tho but yes taking from what we've gathered in tha past this is the best assumption.  it's crazy but it's true.

Somebody should scan the booklet that only credits Nottz as the producer. I ain't never seen that.
