Opinions?

DJ Shadow
(http://www.undagroundarchives.com/people/images/fiveQ/DJs1_op.jpg)
DJ Spinna!
I like DJ Premiere alot too, he's maybe my 2nd favourite even, but imo these 3 are the best
-
^ lol never heard of those 3 :)
-
your missing out lol...
download "Slim's Return" or "funky Blue Note" by madlib...
thats weird how you havn't heard of him.. but I guess it is the underground scene lol.. he's half of Madvillain with MF Doom.., he's part of the Lootpack...
-
dre no doubt........within hiphop........we all know quincy had it on lock in everythin else,aha
-
Phil Spector, what he did with Let It Be was incredible.
Mutt Lange is up there if you wanna talk successful. Who else can claim to be part of so many daimond albums. Shaniah Twain (two diamond and on 8 platiunm), AC/DC (Back in Black went over 40 platinum world wide), Def Leppard (a couple daimond efforts), a bag load of 8 and 9 platinum albums.

Dj Premier, and I don't know many producers outside of hip hop

Quik is #1 for Creativity
Dre is #1 for Quality

Could it be true

Sikotic=Shynekotic?
I just found that picture of me that Blade made a long time ago lol
Anyways, Quik has got my vote. Warren is still one of my favorite producers of all time, but he hardly produces nowadays.
-
no the mr potato head is better.. but u too look alike... :)
-
West coast heads will drop Dre and Quiks name with ease, but East Coast heads will say Premier, RZA, and/or Havoc, but when it comes down to personal preference... its Premier.
*edit* still cant believe none of yall haven't mentioned RZA... i mean 36 Chambers, Forever, OB4CL, Liquid Swords....blah.
-
dre
-
DJ Premier...
closely followed by Dre, RZA and Pete Rock...
-

Dj Jazzy Jeff
Pete Rock
Jay Dee
-
it's easy to say dr. dre, but what abuot mannie fresh? when has he disappointed? what about jazze pha? when has he disappointed?
i don't have one favorite producer, i have a couple of favorite producers :)
mannie fresh, dr. dre, jazze pha, damizza, dj quik, r. kelly...
-
West: Dre way back, Quik, Brotha Lynch Hung
East: RZA, Pete Rock, Havoc
South: definitely the Organized Noize team and Outkast...goddamn, listen to "ATLiens" or "Soul Food"
Primo is great but he's used the same formula since "No More Mr. Nice Guy", little variety there, even though it's mostly great material
9th Wonder & Kanye West could be up there in a few years
there's loads of honorable mentions: Warren G, Large Pro, DJ Shadow, The Alchemist, DJ Paul, Juju, Q-Tip etc.
-
For me it comes down to:
Premier
Jay Dee
Pete Rock
Beatminerz
Large Professor
The west cats, DJ Quik, Warren G, 92-95 Dre get props, but for me none of them are better than the five I listed.
At least one of 9th Wonder, Madlib and Kanye will probably make there way into that five as time goes on.
Outside of straight hiphop DJ Shadow got trip hop on lock, and that dude from Portishead fucks me up with his production every time.
Dj Jazzy Jeff
Based on what?
-
Can I just ask what you guys are basing your opinions on? Is it just who "makes the best beats"?
-
Dj Jazzy Jeff
Based on what?
"For The love of Da Game ...if im not mistaking he did that joint also " Are You ready" by Slum Village
-
but what abuot mannie fresh? when has he disappointed? what about jazze pha? when has he disappointed?
i guess its down to personal preference, i just didnt see those 2 getting a mention...should've known...
-

The reason I think Dre is #1 is becuase he can make a beat cleaner than anyone else. Every instrument is at the exact level it should be. He gives an overall better production than anyone else in hip hop.

Ok that's cool, I thought it may have been based on the common misinterpretation that Jazzy Jeff actually produced all of "The Magnificent".
On the whole Dre thing. I don't see how the fact that his tracks are cleaner makes him the best producer. Hiphop is meant to have a certain grittyness to it, that's what makes it hiphop. I based my decision purely on the end product, and the producers ability to fit tracks to the artist that they are producing for. And for me, Dre doesn't get near my top five in those categories since 95.
-
I agreeDr.Dre doesnt impress me no more his beats are kind of boring (thats just my opinion) maybe its the fact that im on some real hiphop wich is really soulful and hard shit that hit you in the heart
