So in other words, produces the song.

mike elizondo is beyond mel-man.  look at the joints mel produced on his own and chances are mike played bass or keys (or both) on 'em.  he's a talented musician and it's nice having someone like that around who you can just hum shit to and they play it.

I dunno, I don't check it much, but it seems every time I go by there, I see his name.  They're both bass players, I guess he's a fan?

the funny shit about that artice tho is that they make it seem like he´s actually written the lyrics to all the songs when he´s only written bits of the music.

he coproduced like 80% of dres beats since 2000, check the booklets of your albums, including In Da Club, How We Do, The Set Up, Lay Low, etc.

Do you mothafucka's know anything?  He's one of Dre's musicians that plays keyboards and all that.  He doesn't get on the drum machine with Dre.  Every producer out there have their own personnal musician..from Quik, JD, DAZ....etc.

i know that he is mexican and he plays more then the fucking piano and drums he plays alot of shit and i dont see why he dont know how to use the drum machine if playing real instruments is harder. but i also know that dre takes all his credit.
Title: Re: Mike Elizondo (Co producer with Dr. Dre)
Post by: dpgkingpin on February 23, 2005, 05:47:10 AM
hes been listed as coproducer on nearly every single fuckin dre song since the 2001 album, i cant really see how dre is taking credit from him. dre mention in the scratch magazine interview that it is mostly him and mike elizondo in the studio banging out the tracks.

Dre gives Mike all the proper credits. just look in the booklets keyboard:Mike Elizondo,Bass:Mike Elizondo,Guitarr:Mile Elizondo etc
