The West Coast has better all around producers that are able to adapt to any style specifically the East Coast?
You have DJ Muggs with House of Pain and Soul Assassins.
Dr. Dre with Nas, The Firm, Jay Z, 50, Busta, Rakim, Eve, etc.
Alchemist with Mobb Deep and Hit-Boy with Nas.
Like all of those producers have compilations with those rappers too. It's not just a few collabs.
ATL run this producer sh1t. No other region or state can come close.
Shout out to VA!
No not at all… and any real hip hop purist will tell you the same…. Funny how you over look all east coast producers who have left their stamp on the game. And solidified themselves… and do not get sh1t twisted. I love Muggs, Dre, and Alc but they were also heavily influenced by the east coast sign. AlC was sent to NYC by Muggs to study under Primo, Havoc, Large Professor, etc… please do research before making these silly post… shows you have 0 knowledge on any of these dudes… lol!!
To be honest I never really liked Dre as a producer. He's good but he seems very over rated.
Timberland seems better as an all around producer rather than Dre
I see your Atl basement squad and I respect that, but outside of ATL artist where is the impact?
Here I will give you a prodigy (another one) because you came with not enough for a pioneer like Dilla....
Check the Resume. Polow Da Don! ATL accolades..
You all iver the place at random..
We are in different planets. Im talking about real producers, mega producers..
You are talking about bedroom mom and pop producers.
Can't forget Apollo Brown out of Detroit.
The man puts out miracles. I say to myself "Where is he pulling this stuff from?"
Nas and Apollo Brown need a album ASAP. I don't care if it's King's Disease 11 or 12. It's GOTTA happen lol.
Ask Scott Storch and Mel-Man and them…

Check the resume Polow da Don! ATL producer sh1t.. You all over the place..
Im talking hits.sh1t that moved the world. Not just Bx.

Nobody could adapt to a sound like Dilla. No matter the coast, style, or genre, Dilla would put out something nobody could touch.
These boys don't understand, like really don't lol. Dilla was genius level with this sh1t, not just a cool beat maker who could "make hits". My dude helped create/recreate a genre, Starbucks be playing Dilla inspired sh1t lol. But hey I guess some guys had a few "hits" 10-15 years ago so they on Dilla level
Atlanta sound is zaytoven and Memphis sound
New Orleans sound hasn’t been relevant since early 2000s cash money
Houston sound hasn’t been relevant since asap rocky came out
The whole south is copying zaytoven or trap which is memphis sound
Folks have a right to they own opinion, but Dre is a savant with the beats. Go back and listen to Ziggins4life the beats on there were ridiculous.
Dre overrated
Props to Op for bringing this forum back to the glory days. Folks should post the cashapp for the threads. Best threads would make more money and weed out the trolls
My son is into making music so I have him reading Dilla Time. I was chilling with in his room last night and I had him watching a Tracklib video on Dilla's production method. My son always says your music growing up is better and has been on a De La kick since they dropped on streaming.
Ok does Mel man have Any hits on his own ?
Those "mega" producers shelf lives be pretty short there fam. Neither of those legends have has a relevant track in a decade, while the "mom and pop" guys are still earning credits posthumously, as well as Grammy and Emmy nods in the last few years. Just saying... Ask some of the hip hop legends are they taking Dilla or PDD/Toomp? Atl was moreso regional, Detroit had a reach that extended state to state. And please let's keep it hip hop because we don't want to talk about music in general. We not MoTown for no reason fam.
Timbaland does though…
Hence why he isnt the overrated one or the one thought to be lesser…
Just stating the reason why Dre prolli not rated higher…maybe Timbaland had or does have a supporting cast…idk.
