Remember when everybody wanted a Lex Luger beat, or Mike Will Made It, or Metro Boomin?
It feels like we haven’t had another producer the hip hop world is unanimously excited about in years. Hit Boy is putting in WORK these days, but it doesn’t feel like he’s taking over radio or defining the sound of 2020/2021.
And even then, none of the big name producers like 5 years back feel like household names anymore. It feels like if a producer isn’t doing one of those “fully produced by…” projects, their hype kind of just fades.
They too busy getting copycats
If the beats were that fire they'd go to the source
Nobody clamoring for a Pi'erre beat
He’s definitely in demand right now, but yeah, I don’t think it’s anywhere near as universal as the bigger names of the past when they were first getting hyped.
If the beats were that fire they'd go to the source
it's simple to run up streaming numbers though
and that is to copy what is catchy for dances. no matter the quality of the production
so no more superstar producers
Nobody clamoring for a Pi'erre beat
Stop the capppppo
there are a lot of producers trying to run with his sound
Would've said Pi'erre like 2 years ago but I think everyone is moving past him and his formula, or just going to someone else that can actually make things interesting.
