I wouldn't include those who are still classified as west coast producers even if they weren't born there, such as Jelly Roll and maybe Rick Rock....but what producers who definitely aren't considered west coast producers are the best at making west coast beats?

I would say..

-Lil Jon - Does hyphy beats just as good as everybody in the Bay other than Rick Rock..and makes beats with that 80s Funk/90s West Coast feel that still sound modern and dope as hell, such as "Play no games" and "Bitches ain't shit"

-Scott Storch - One of the architects of Dre 2001, but has continued to outdo most west coast producers when he does tracks for west coast artists...such as "That's my name" for Sly Boogy, "Git drunk" for Daz, "Why we thugs" for Ice Cube

-Jermaine Dupri - His old style was basically an offshoot of G-Funk, but in my opinion, did it better than a lot of the west coast producers did. Some of the tracks he did for Da Brat and Kris Kross second album (Some cut up, tonite's the nite, live and die for hip hop), along with some of his recent tracks were damn near amazing.

Hi-Tek can cook up some beats that have a West Coast vibe to it...

Lil Jon got some real, west-coast sounding tracks, i.e. Play No Games and Bitches Aint Shit...

JD, Lil Jon, Storch, JR, Focus, Hi Tek. Come to think of it they are making better westcoast beats lately than other westcoast cats.

DJ Hi-Tek comes to mind, especially that "Cool" track on the Eastsidaz album. When I first heard it I thought it was Battlecat.
Being a LAKER is a privilige. Unfortunately some "Lakers" have forgotten that.
