Or is my mind playing tricks on me

Interested in hearing why not

Yes. Next question.

They’re going to tell you dilla alchemist ye neptunes dre. Who are you leaving out. I know my answer

Top 5 is Kanye West, Dilla, Alchemist, Dr. Dre and the Neptunes

Hell no but he has some amazing contributions and great sound design/selection

alchemist

Personally I’m a Neptunes hater until I die but that’s just me

Cardo got em beat for sure

Dre got some whack ass s*** as well

He ushered in a new sound for sure but what's holding him back is he doesn't have enough credits/catalog to back up being top 5. He's an innovator no doubt tho.

whitearmor better

I think al belongs but not because of these smoked out drumless adult burnout beats but instead the early 2000s body of work + the second prime of early 2010s in which he made some of my favourite beats of all time. He’s made like 12 good beats in the last 10 years though

no just because he peaked pretty fast

Dr Dre beats f***ing suck they just kind of sound good

i jus dropped a clams inspired project today

There is realistically no white armour without clams and that’s pretty much a fact

Idgaf

clams isn't there but i'm putting madlib over dilla easily. i love dilla but i feel like he's one of those picks people feel like they need to put top 5 everytime

but donuts bro

you don’t listen to dilla like that. He’s so goated but let’s not play pretend.

Top 5 of 2011? Maybe.

Top 5 of all time?

No argument just a vague dunk for likes

ok well theres 7 billion others on earth so idgaf if u dont gaf

Absolutely not
