Ever since Eminem morphed into an unlikely force in hip-hop, Em’s accolades as a producer have been inconspicuously stacking up. On top of granting artists such as Akon, Lloyd Banks, and his Bad Meets Evil comrade Royce Da 5”9 their biggest hits with ‘Smack That’, ‘On Fire’ and ‘Lighters’ respectively, Em's reputation as a safe and capable pair of hands behind the boards has led to him racking up well over100 production credits over his storied career. Drafted in to make beats for the posthumous work of The Notorious B.I.G and Pac as well as etching his name into Jay Z's legacy with tracks such as the infamous ‘Renegade’, ‘Moment Of Clarity’ and ‘Eight Miles & Runnin’, Shady’s 360-degree approach to hip-hop gives him a unique distinction. As in addition to being on many people’s Mount Rushmore’s of MC’s, Em has produced for a whole host of those that’d share a spot beside him. From Nas and Jadakiss to Sticky Fingaz, Xzibit and Busta Rhymes, both Shady’s star power and clear-cut ability to tap into an artists’ headspace has meant that he’s uplifted careers in ways that go beyond a co-sign or guest verse. But somehow, the best-selling artist of the 2000s still finds himself sidelined when talk turns to the most prolific beatmakers.

*Fun Fact:* In a mid 2000s interview Kanye West named Em as one of the greatest producers ever and also revealed that he once tried to steal Em's drum kits when he was in the studio with him coz Em had the best drum kits.
Fake we need receipts
Proof?
@@charliefazzari6389 Hey man how ur coping with ur breakup ?

@@jwood8769 I was shocked when I saw the headline a while back😂 I was imagining Kanye carrying a drum set out of Em's crib
Came up under Dre. What y'all expected?
Em’s beats are ASS
Honestly, his beats are trashcans
@@trendylyrics8040 false
@@mizzodotcom2 splish splash your opinion is trash
@Tik Tok Ads yeah you definitely hear Dre's style when you hear Em beats ... "hard hitting, a lot of strings / weird sounds for atmosphere and spacious to let the voice take center stage"
Kanye admitted to trying to physically steal Marshall's drums from the studio
Lol
@Light Myst no cap
@Light Myst in that interview Kanye had Em in his Top 5 producers. He said he studied him a lot to learn how Em got certain sounds to cut through others, or something like that. It's similar to what Kendrick said about studying Em's rapping.
Facts
@@JustMe-mo6xk where is the interview
?
Em was definitely slept on as a producer. Everyone says “oh his beats sounds the same” and I’m umm so does a lot of producers. There’s a difference between same sounding shit and a signature sound. Em had that dark sound and it was dope. Em’s production for 50, G-Unit members and D-12 were the highlights for me. Oh and Pac’s Loyal To The Game was dope af too.
It's definitely Ems drum patterns that immediately make them recognizable.
Cory Lyons Music Yep and when he did that vinyl scratching at the end of 8 bars of a verse.
You’re right, there is a difference between a signature sound and all of your beats sounding the same. That being said, all of Eminem’s beats sound the fucking same
word loyal to the game was hard af
Exactly. You can instantly tell if its a Swizz or Pharrell beat cause of their signature sound
This is a huge reason why I still listen to Em. He is easy to relate too because even with all his sucess, he is still a fan of hip hop. He respects the art and those who laid the ground work for his career and remains eternally grateful.
real recognize real!
@BeeleeDatPleighboi 100 No.
BeeleeDatPleighboi 100 elaborate?
@BeeleeDatPleighboi 100 boy, you got shit in your ears lol
@BeeleeDatPleighboi 100 Jokes aside, since pre-Kamikaze forwards he has some of the best bangers in his whole discography. I'd take Caterpillar, Chloraseptic remix, Not Alike, Bad Guy and such everyday before SSLP.
People never gave him enough props as a producer, only for his rapping ability.
Not even rap ability now. People don't like his rappy raps

I get Eminem has “Stans” that just think everything he do is perfect and they think he’s the best rapper alive, but that doesn’t mean we discredit him for all the good he has done in hip-hop. In someways I think Eminem is still extremely underrated. I’m not saying you have to be a fan of yours by any means there’s lots of rappers that work their ass off and that are very good at their craft but maybe their style isn’t for me But that doesn’t mean I just shit on them and talk shit. Dude is one of the top-tier lyricist ever in the game and no one wants to give him credit for the hits he’s produced as a producer and I know rap labels started by rappers under a parent company only have 4 to 6 years when they first start that they are putting out platinum and gold everything. After that I don’t care if it’s shady records, death Row records, no limit records, G unit records, bad boy records, lynch mob records, The first 46 years their labor will be on fire and then as the main artist popularity starts fading down so does the label. At least give Eminem credit for all the people he put on. Rappers, producer/beat makers, writers, there are a lot of rich African Americans today that are in the position they are in because Eminem put them on or put the guy on that put them on. D12, 50 Cent, G-Unit, Obie Trice , Royce da 5’9”, Boogie, Ca$his, and put a main stage light on Slaughterhouse. On top of that he is one of the few label hands Dearing the mumble rap phase that said fuck that shit I’m going to keep signing and working with real emcees. Not saying you have to suck his dick or anything I’ll be his number one fan but at least give the guy props where he deserves it. Great video man. Awesome.
Exactly. I bet If half of the stans werent casual fans of rap/hip hop and also EM was black he was the goat but his haters are just like stans biased edgy annoying corny af! EM deserves better SMFH
He ruined slaughterhouse lol what are you saying right now?
@@jwood8769 slaughter house could've stay everyone except Joe is cool still.
He IS both underrated and overpraised in different ways. Doesn't change the fact that he is arguably the best ever still. Nobody is perfect, but the greats are as close as possible.
Im big Em fan, but for me he isnt THE goat, but no doubt is ONE of the goats. Em is one of the few rappers in the same table with Rakim, Nas, Lupe, Jay and Blackthought .
That song "Love Me" on the 8 Mile soundtrack with Eminem, 50 Cent and Obie Trice is still one of the most hypnotic and mesmerizing beats i have ever heard along with the chorus. Everyone needs to here it

Eminem Show is my favourite em album and he produced damn near the whole thing
oh shit for real? Love this album and I didnt know he actually produced it aswell
@@-BONELESS- Yes, you will be surprised by how many songs of his he has produced 🔥
Not exactly my favorite but top 3 for sure.
Mine too ^^
Shit me too ppl think I am crazy cuz I like TES more than mmlp
You know to this day whenever I hear a Em beat I still get surprised that Em made a beat lol he rarely comes out and says ya I make beats too
Do I have potential? th-cam.com/video/P2yhByopncU/w-d-xo.html
@ DarkshadowXD63 For sure. I’m still as big of a fan of his beats / production as anything else he does. I always look forward to hearing something new from him. No matter if it’s a guest verse, a new song or a beat for someone else. Sometimes that’ll get me interested in that other artist too. For example, Skyler Grey. When he produced Come Up For Air and Kill For You, I started really getting into her music.
Finally someone noticed! Props to HHM!!
Kxng crooked pointed it out first lol
@@Shadydan05 True. But I didn't see anyone else make a video about it in this type of format so far. No disrespect to Crook 👑
Finally someone noticed 🤩🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣you Stans be dorks fareal..
@@mizzodotcom2 Not really a stan... I did grow up listening Em tho and I always liked his beats cause I make them myself.
@@FlowdeepTDKM but Eminem's has one of the trasheeeeesstttt beats. I think he is overrated as a producer😅😅
This video warms the heart. Eminem is honestly one of the most ironically wholesome artists in HIPHOP
One of Em' best production is Runnin by Pac and Biggie. Damn that song is a classic and Marshall produced the hell of it.
Yeah... I always think of that track especially, when mentioning about his production... It's a fucking great tune !!
His catalogue as a producer is actually crazy. He’s produced a lot of his own songs as well as for other big name rap artists
Infinite still sounds beautiful no two ways about that. Everytime I listen to it, it brings about an aura of enthusiasm and looking forward to the future. Like a throwback to the time where the possibilities of your potential felt "infinite".
Infinite is a 8/10 album.Underrated af
He is talked about his raps 99% of time and not producing, because he's out of this world, unmatched when it comes to rhyme schemes, bars, flows, triple/quadruple entendre. Hopefully he gets his flowers before he inevitably passes on ... like most artists, they are praised after they are gone ... rest of the time, people just want to talk sh$t, although they accomplished nothing noticeable
Those violins on Patiently Waiting are legendary
Wait did Em produce that? I always thought it wasn't him just cause it's so different from anything he'd do. The production on that song is so fire I figured it was just made by some renowned industry producer.
I'd argue that Jeff Bass is one of the most underrated producers. Why? Because it is he who inspired Em's production. Em's production style follows from the Funky Bass Brothers, and Jeff Bass has produced my favourite Em songs. Every song where Em gets introspective, and deep, it's almost always on a Jeff Bass production. Dre produced most of his dance tracks. Kim, Rock Bottom, Marshal Mathers, Lose Yourself, Cleaning Out My Closet, Sing For The Moment, Superman, Criminal and many others were produced by Jeff and Mark Bass.
Even songs like Em's produced The Way I Am, Renegade and Patiently Waiting, they all sound like Jeff Bass made it. The Bass Brothers were a huge influence on Em's production style.

Jeff Bass > Em
Scott Scorch > Dr. Dre
@@chcamporezi 100% Agreed!
@@chcamporezi nah Fam no way
@aryan raina imagine using feminem as an insult...
I'm ashamed that I knew nothing about his producing talents. I have never personally seen or heard or seen in annotation of him producing anything. This really opens my eyes up to what his sound truly is, how versatile he really is. Wow, I like this. I like this new perception
I can recognize an Eminem beat from a mile away since the early 2000s when I was a teen. I actually like a lot of his production. Like every other producer, he has a distinct sound that I can instantly recognize. Some are wacky in my opinion but he got a lot of dope joints. He did win with Jadakiss that I really like too.
I read somewhere that Kanye was trying to steal Ems drum sounds back in the day because they were fire. 😆🔥
That actually true
Yes and in a late 2000s interview he called Em one of the greater producers ever. He was particularly blown away by his production on TES/8 Mile apart from other Shady Records artists' albums.
Kanye respects em a lot
@Nathan Trujillo you’re an idiot Em’s one of my favorite artists and ye is my fav
Kanye has given him props before and said he for the longest time he wanted the snares Em used
Em produced 'Psycho' for 50 Cent right? That track is still crazy in 2020
That was Dre according to the album credits
Obviously it's dre, it has dre "things"
@@MrTrueCaller619 Dre instrumental elements you mean.
dantrel81 What about
Till I collapse?
Dre produced that one
Em did a better job than most did on Pac’s, posthumous music.
Pac's posthumous productions were garbage.
Em produced loyal to the game albun which was mainly verses recorded with no beat even put a biggie and pac freestyle together and both are better than alomost everything at that time plus he had the respect of afeni shakur
Huh!!!?! That shit was trash. Especially since he switched Pacs verse in that Runnin song. Em is still good at what he does though
Goopy Le Grande Are you just saying that because you’re a hipster?
Em did alright but better day's was crackin... Wit jazzie pha doin most of the beats was dope on it too
Eminem always been one of my favorite Producers. He has his own sound and he's produced hit songs and helped on artist songs. Legendary, great video
That cheers album has Eminem’s peak beats, never enough is a also one of his best.
Never Enough was Dre
@dantrel81 That's right.
@@scottferguson3842 it was Em too
He produced a lot of good beats for Obie, look up Jamaican Girl
em has some sick beats

it was originally a TES beat.

Facts finally Eminem is getting his producer flowers💯👏🔥
Facts! Em produced or helped produce sooo many of his best songs....Way I Am, Without Me, Till I Collapse, Lose Yourself, Soldier, No Apologies etc. and also produced Renegade and Patiently Waiting 🔥🔥
Produced akons smack that too
@aryan raina No he did not. Resto only helped produce Lose Yourself, No Apologies and Renegade on the ones I listed. Em is the sole producer on Way I Am, Till I Collapse, Soldier, & Patiently Waiting. And notice i did say produce or helped produce in my initial comment.
@aryan raina Under the last chorus on Genius for the Way I Am, it literally says Produced by Eminem and the annotation says its one of the first tracks he produced by himself. Under the About section of Till I Collapse it says Marshall makes a beat for himself. Luis is only mentioned in the co-writing section
@aryan raina Luis Resto did not produce them. Luis helped him in mixing and only a little in the beat, but Em did most of the work.
@aryan raina your understanding of producing is limited. It's not just playing instruments.
All the people hating now gonna be the same ones that say they love him as soon as he passes. Lets just allow this living goat to do him until he passes it will inevitably happen

I was just saying this other day when I heard Drama Setter - Tony Yayo ft. Eminem and Obie Trice. Jay-Z even enlisted EM to produce a tract "Moment of Clarity" on his supoosed retirement album
say what you want about his beats now, but back in the day they went *HARD.*
Mtbmb had awesome beats.One of the best produced eminem albums by eminem
Em still makes dope beats imo
And he co-produced Stepdad with Alchemist on MTBMB which is imo a top 20 Eminem song of all time period
Eminem best time was 2001-2004 as far as producing. 8 mile road, lose yourself, patiently waiting,8 miles and running, moment of clarity,, places to go, on fire, carry the cross, run rabbit run, the sauce etc all dope.
Tyson Mike fr. don’t forget renegade, soldier, don’t push me, D-block, etc
Around the 2010’s he did have a bad ear for beats which is why he was so underrated as a producer. Cause back in the day he legitimately was a great producer.
This was incredible. Subscribed 🔥
I rock with Em beats, always have, but I think Em's lyricism overshadows his producing.
That's why no one talks about Em's producing skills, the rapping takes the spotlight

Em is a legend in all aspects of hip-hop
Even tho it's sad, the fact he didn't rap a lot during 2005-2008 due to drugs made him focus on beats and he made some of my fav beats in that era
Awesome guy
Have y’all heard of Knxwledge? the guy that produced “Kendrick Lamar’s moma”
Track from the album of “TO PIMP A BUTTERFLY”? No smfh now he is the MOST UNDERRATED
Knxwledge is incredible. My favorite work by him is his Nxworries with Anderson Paak
He certainly is not underrated, he is releasing beattapes and he is known for this
He is my favorite tbh. Mad underrated. Made some of the best beats I've ever heard.
Trouzz who knows him? Who? Snoop? Dre? Jay? Diddy? Meek? Who? Smfh the world doesn’t involve around you, you do realise that? Not everything that you listen to EVERYBODY listen too 😑 all these niggas haven’t even got a clue that he even exists (just like this channel) the first thing they think of when it comes to soulful beats is DJ premier, Kanye and Madlib or hit boy or something like that and that’s it. If he was that known guaranteed THIS video would be about him

The thing I love about Em is that he makes sure the people he signs or works with succeeds and even after that he won’t tell someone not to do something over something petty like Em and MGK beef while Yelawolf and MGK had a song in the pipeline, Yela asked Em if he can still send it and Em told him to just send it. I respect the fuck out of that. Purely business first and the protection of the success of his people.
