Mel-Man Top Ten Beats

[abusive]

Nice post... it's just hard to differentiate how big a role Mel played in some of those beats vs the role Dre played in those beats. 

For me, when I think of Mel-Man these are the tracks that stand out.

1.  "Shittin On The World" this track is so mesmerizing that I once got smoked out and hypnotized myself to sleep with it on repeat and even after 100 listens on repeat it only got more infectious.  People still haven't caught up to how ill this joint was.  Ahead of its time.

2.  "Year 2,000" People forget that this was kind of like X's first solo single after it was announced Dre would executive produce his album. 

3.  "Welcome to L.A." - This was on Xzibit's second album and it was the sign of things to come later for Xzibit, the sort of sound he would adopt for his Restless LP.

4.  "Role Model" -  This one could of been more Dre then Mel-Man, it's hard to say so that's why I put it at 4 underneath the other 3

5. “Get Your Walk On” - A West Coast anthem, would rank higher but I took it as more of a Battlecat track

did mel man do the eve song eve of destruction? again hard to tell dre's involvement alongside mel-man but that is a fire track

[Sccit]

he did all of 2001 alongside dre, so every song ima pick will be from that album

He did. Solo credit.

we could do with compiling his catalogue over in the vault, i noticed a complete one hasn't been done yet.

I believe he did a few songs on the truth hurts album as well.

I listened to quite a few of his productions this afternoon and can definitely say his production style is for sure guitar centric, during the 98-02 era this worked great with dre drums and dre's sound around this time

Yep, he did “Eve of Destruction” which is a solid track.  Not his best work though.

Did he do the track STR8-Gone~King-T ? I love that track.

its always good to compile this knowledge and get it wrote down before its lost in the vestiges of time

I think that might of been Buddha but I could be wrong

Get Yo Walk On has to be up there  (co produced by Battlecat?)

Hell yeah !!!  I’m addin that to my list !!!  Can’t believe I forgot that one that joint did well and the album went platinum but that shit should of been an anthem in hiphop like could have done even bigger numbers.  My white suburban friends who were rock fans were even into that song.

I just usually thought of it as a Battlecat track cause it sounds more like Battlecat then Mel Man but you are right Mel is also there on the production credits
