I’m glad Pharrell was there to push him to get a little outside the box. You can clearly hear his influence on every track he produced down to the adlibs and Pusha’s tone of voice
Fire Production too.
I FEEL GOOD NOW
AINT THAT WHATS LIFE ABOUT
THANKS YOU FOR NEW DAYS SOMETHING TO SING ABOUT
bro this isn’t year one of Kanye west career as a producer, he paid his dues a long ass time ago & his approach has changed
Kanye had bad beats and Pharrell only had two decent beats. Kanye has never made anything that can compete with the greats not even can compete with Pharrell.
I’m not here to compare anything, only to reiterate there are different approaches to being a producer that are all valid, you’re pretty focused on Ye, I’m not…I offered Burial as example, even Brian Eno
Man,Dreaming Of The Past is nice but,we just can’t pretend like it wouldn’t be ignored on someone’s SoundCloud page for yrs if Ye’s name wasn’t attached to it. P gave Push some of the best modern production he’s done yet with beats like Neck & Wrist and Brambleton.
You can prefer Ye on this album but don’t act like P looked amateur-ish compared to Ye on IAD.
Go on Soundcloud right now and pick out a Dreaming of the past.
Kanye's drums are just as good as any producers when he rly goes in and goes unorthodox, it's just his traditional boom bap beats that aren't always on the same level as other elite producers
The only thing you're right about is that Kanye doesn't play instruments
He plays piano, just not at a professional level.
Kanye is better than Madlib at flipping samples. He will eat up Madlib in a Verzuz using work form 2003- 2005 alone.
S*** from that 2-3 year period he's eating up any producer if you deep it. Those RnB joints >>>>
bro also you talked about 9th v Ye they both spent like 12 years chopping samples & and adding baselines & their signature drums
The people have spoken, nobody is trying to hear Pharrell's best GarageBand impressions
He plays piano, just not at a professional level.
I mean every producer "plays piano" lol but he's rly not a great keyboardist at all even as somebody who never took lessons or whatever, never rly seen footage of him going crayz on the keys
