I gotta say the period that made me love rap was the Marley Marl era.. but the era that opened me up was RZA Wu Tang 1993 to 2000. The sound the mixture of sampling was just so wild to the ears. Cuban Linx... Iron Man GZA album... the sounds just fit so many moods. I got better at writing hearing WuTang. Peace Mad Supanova
I remember hearing Method Man on a small hip- hop radio show while sharing an earphone off my friend’s walkman. we were both like who the hell are these guys? I’m not sure if 36 chambers was even released yet. Good old days.
1. DJ Premier ; He perfected the hip hop instrumental.His scratches, his funk, his drums & samples are unbeatable. 2. Dr. Dre ; His ability to create hits and perfect producing along with his success makes him top 3 easily. 3. J Dilla ; His smooth soul music is unlike any other. His style is untouchable, could've been 1 if he had more time. 4. Rick Rubin or Pete Rock ; Progressed early hip hop in the 80's and create the hip hop style others improved. 5. Kanye West ; His Graduation album is flawless and has many amazing, soulful beats that are like J Dilla mixed with DJ Premier. Some thought went into this list Lol
I like this list and for the reasons given too. Some might argue Kanye was a bad choice but I'd say he deserves a shout. TCD, LR and MBDTF all contain masterful production despite being very different from each other.
Top 5 no order: 1. Metal fingers DOOM 2. 9th wonder 3. Madlib 4. J Dilla 5. Dj Nastee. - the production on the Ism & Blues album by Hard to Obtain is fucking ridiculous
Dilla mastered music production. I can recreate beats from timbo, Dre, pharrel, Pete rock, premo, hitek, swizz, Kanye and many others. Dilla cannot be reproduced. He is the best ever and he can do all of the ones I mentioned and much better. R.I.P King of Beats
His name never gets brought ever!!! I'm going to start my top producer list that nobody never mention that gets left out the equation that dont get any recognition
@@bktg4059 I hear you but you know dilla is dope. Don’t allow the masses confuse you there. He’s legit even if most of the people who hollering his name have no clue why.
1. Havoc (shook ones, hell on earth, and survival of the fittest are the best beats for me, the only beats you can listen to just for 24 hours straight) 2. Dj premier 3. Rza 4. MF doom 5. Dr dre
Nice interview with DJ Premier of rap music duo Gang Starr. My top 5 favorite rap music producers are DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Doctor Dre of NWA, Erick Sermon of EPMD, RZA of Wu Tang Clan.
@@newera5238 Do you hate Dilla, Bro you don't know real music YOU MUST BE YOUNG the guy was making beats in 10 minutes, U know how hard sampling is especially when you have Lupus, and your making shit in your deathbed, SMH Dumb kid.
My Top 5 are : 1. DJ Premier, 2. Pete Rock, 3. Large Professor, 4. Dr Dre, 5. Lord Finesse. Honourable mentions : J Dilla, RZA, Madlib, MF Doom, Scarface, Q-Tip, Marley Marl, Erick Sermon, Diamond D.
Dam, he came out with James Brown first. Never expected that but it makes sense since Hip Hop has sampled James Brown so much. DJ Premier is is on another level.
premier is a legend....I still feel like he sometimes doesn't get credit he deserves in the rap game...some of the newer generations don't even know his name...when ever I freestyle the first thing I do is throw on a premier beat play list... every track he had his hands on is just magical
The difference between Premo and Dre: The Doctor has an ear that influences his mixing which in terms makes the track even better. The sound is amazing. You may not even like the sample. But the clarity of the track gets your attention. Premo, simply is a funky beatsmith. If Premo focus on his mixing he would take Dre. Andre Young is a mixing genius.
Being a Old School Underground Hip-Hop head , i would say my top 5 producers are: 5_DJ E-Swift (from Tha Alkaholiks) in My opinion Tha liks are like a Real Hip Hop party group , their three first albums really put anybody in a zone , like goin' stoopid on the beat , and man , there's a lot of people that need to check Swift poduction deep 4_DJ Muggs (and i would probably even put him at number 1 , cause of his creativity on everything he made , he really is a experimental producer and he got such a highlighted hip hop songs that really makes him an underlooked producer , i really think that Muggs deserves more credit from his work in the last almost 30 years) 3_Pete Rock , he really is a funky producer , he is the type of producer that really makes beats that give a flashback of the classic jazz and such , i would say that he's a teacher in the way it should be done 2_ Preemo , don't mistake my opinion , cause Preemo is a fucking beast on the boards , he is simple a go-to HIP HOP producer , i really haven't heard a Premier beat that made play next or skip 1_Dr.Dre , there's any Dre beat that does'nt brought you nostalgia or made you wanna go back to that era ?? , Or Even more , there's any Dre beat that you skipped in your playlist , he's so fuckin DOPE
preemo once said dilla is the goat but cant find it ... but i know that feeling.. sometimes FlyLo the sickest.. another day RZA the sickest.. then its dilla again.. then its doom then you on your grimy stuff and then havoc is the sickest.. it all depends on your mood.. i have 30 producers in my top5 changing all day.. Dilla is my personal favorite tho.. he has so many music people dont know about..
My own personal top 5..... Premo, Large Pro, Alchemist, Rza, and Dr Dre... Man I cant believe I left out Dilla, Kanye, Pete Rock, and a few others just too hard to choose really. My dream is to one day make a better beat or track than Premo.
premo is one of the most down 2 earth celebs i ever met and i've met a decent amount, particularly people in the hip hop and music industry. it blew my mind how chill and laid back he was for such a influential man and a pinnacle of real hip hop. just a chill ass dude you might run into in my hood in queens but a legend none the less. the mans music gets me to work when i got 2 be up at 3:45am and he thanked me when i told em that. a real ass dude who makes some good fuckin music word up
This isnt top 5 hip hop producers so its understandable Dilla, Ye, RZA, Pete Rock 9th wonder etc are all great obviosuly but this is HIS list. Im sure theyre in his top hip hop producers list.
Much Respect to Premo 1 of the Best Producers Ever But if he is talking about Funky Producers than you have to mention J DILLA he had a real soulful feel to his beats they were 1 of a kind.
So many great ones... Large Pro, Pete Rock, Diamond D, Lord Finesse (Finesse and Large Pro might be the best ever combinations of MC/Producer cause they are one of the best at both), Da Beatminerz, J Swift (he's already one of the best and he only did a little bit of music before crack screwed him up), El P, DJ Hi Tek (Respiration is on of my favourite beats ever), Organized Noize, Questlove, Karriem Riggins, Sa-Ra... Bla Bla Bla
Sonically Nas illmatic is just unreal the sound levels and matching of vocals.. its like he was gliding on the beats. voice and beats just meshed so well.Slick Rick 1988 to 1996 Iron Man Ghost- to me the greatest era in rap. Can't compete in that time frame skill wise. Just can't. There where so many variety of flows and word play.
That's what I'm saying. That's why I can't give Ali the props like that then. Q-tip was responsible for the main classics. Midnight Marauders is a flawlessly produced album.
@TheEminemBase That some real shit right there. Em's production skills are overshadowed by his incredible lyrical ability, but Em can make a sick beat at will. Square Dance, Soldier, Drug Ballad are all sick instrumentals.
No particular order top 10, it was way too hard picking 5!!!! J-Dilla DJ Premier The Nuptunes Kanye West The Bomb Squad Dr. Dre Pete Rock Timberland Larry Smith Da Beatminerz
Dre build a crew around him to make great production, Dre alone is not a great producer just check early NWA , avg at best. Scott storch made many of dres chronic album production.
that was later on Dre put allot of work in prior to that from NWA, to D.O.C. etc. even to this day. Also you have to clarify Dre is a Producer not a Beatmaker the people that were around his team were simply beatmakers outside of Denaun aka Mr. Porter even if you ref. Scott you have to think could you listen to an entire album by him in his heyday allot of the songs he did between 50 and Fat Joe sound the same. they say only 2 people have superior level mix downs and that's Dre, and J Dilla beats that Busta had were 2 tracks from cassettes but since they were mixed down well on TAPE they made it to this day.
Bill Perri Thats your opinion playa, comparing NWA shit to what other producers were doing at the time early 90s i would say it was garbage. Even Dre said it himself but i cant find the interview to let you know.
My top 5 in no particular order. Preemo, Madlib, RZA, 9th Wonder, Dilla. Probably forgetting someone, there's been a lot of unbelievable hip hop producers but those are the ones I find myself going back to.

Nice... I would give Easy Mo Bee a honorary spot
Being a Old School Underground Hip-Hop head , i would say my top 5 producers are:
5_DJ E-Swift (from Tha Alkaholiks) in My opinion Tha liks are like a Real Hip Hop party group , their three first albums really put anybody in a zone , like goin' stoopid on the beat , and man , there's a lot of people that need to check Swift poduction deep
4_DJ Muggs (and i would probably even put him at number 1 , cause of his creativity on everything he made , he really is a experimental producer and he got such a highlighted hip hop songs that really makes him an underlooked producer , i really think that Muggs deserves more credit from his work in the last almost 30 years)
3_Pete Rock , he really is a funky producer , he is the type of producer that really makes beats that give a flashback of the classic jazz and such , i would say that he's a teacher in the way it should be done
2_ Preemo , don't mistake my opinion , cause Preemo is a fucking beast on the boards , he is simple a go-to HIP HOP producer , i really haven't heard a Premier beat that made play next or skip
1_Dr.Dre , there's any Dre beat that does'nt brought you nostalgia or made you wanna go back to that era ?? , Or Even more , there's any Dre beat that you skipped in your playlist , he's so fuckin DOPE
Muggs,Premo,RZA,Alchemist & Juju!!! P Rock,E Sermon & R Rubin just missed my cut.
I'm shocked dilla isn't on his list.
+Gold Rag Fuck off

Dilla is my personal favorite tho.. he has so many music people dont know about..

Im not. Dilla was good. Air-body ain't gotta call him g.o.a.t.

premo is one of the most down 2 earth celebs i ever met and i've met a decent amount, particularly people in the hip hop and music industry. it blew my mind how chill and laid back he was for such a influential man and a pinnacle of real hip hop. just a chill ass dude you might run into in my hood in queens but a legend none the less. the mans music gets me to work when i got 2 be up at 3:45am and he thanked me when i told em that. a real ass dude who makes some good fuckin music word up

Good point.
that was later on Dre put allot of work in prior to that from NWA, to D.O.C. etc. even to this day. Also you have to clarify Dre is a Producer not a Beatmaker the people that were around his team were simply beatmakers outside of Denaun aka Mr. Porter even if you ref. Scott you have to think could you listen to an entire album by him in his heyday allot of the songs he did between 50 and Fat Joe sound the same. they say only 2 people have superior level mix downs and that's Dre, and J Dilla beats that Busta had were 2 tracks from cassettes but since they were mixed down well on TAPE they made it to this day.
