Quote from: Funk Lord on February 24, 2015, 03:37:02 PMlso as much as i love kendrick, ab-soul and their stuff, i wouldn't mind another rapper, crew or producer with a 2010+ version of that funky westcoast shit...and that yg album don't really count imo...mustard beats is too cheap. he's like a poor man's manny fresh that try to recreate old too short sounds from time to time imo..that's just me i guess. i know alot of fools got love for mustardhow does it not count exactly ? YG's album is by essence "that funky westcoast shit" and that "newer form of g-funk" you just described. how is it cheap exactly ? they used live instruments and session musicians like Terrace Martin to replay the tracks. and the result is funky, gangsta and g-funkish as it can get. I swear people sleep on Mustard's versatility. He's pegged as a one trick pony when he has clearly shown he could produce club tracks, g-funk tracks, more soulful and r&b tracks. https://www.youtube.com/v/wm-ZLq1q_mAhttps://www.youtube.com/v/97DMZnAsXfIhttps://www.youtube.com/v/m06PQfSU6HUhttps://www.youtube.com/v/gTj8_ZYyll0if you can't appreciate the groovy sound, the g-funk elements and regional sound in these songs, then I can't do anything for you.

lol chill....i never said that there would be no "regional" aspects in his sound, i just don't feel it and it sounds cheap to me..the drums sound over-quantized and have no live feeling on it (i suspect the drums to be just programmed on flstudio) and sounds cold. drums are important part of a beat. i prefer a more "organic" sound.don't get me wrong i liked some of the tracks from the album. but "me & my bitch" for example (best track on the album imo) was the only track that wasn't produced my mustard. do it to ya is perfect example. it sounds like not nearly as groovy as let's play house....i give yg props for his obviously suga free influence on it (same on "the flockers"), but overall it's nothing that i feel..what should i say? if i don't feel it i don't feel it. we're gonna end up debating on opinions
i agree wit funk lord to an extent, a lot of mustard's beats do sound generic/cheap......not to say he doesnt have some slaps, but he's not one of the better overall producers reppin the west, just the most popular.

He can produce legit r&b songs.

Someone or something will blow up on the west and bring it back. Maybe the N.W.A movie will help revive it to the mainstream and a good time for people to drop some solid albums.
