Lowkey
Carti is the only one who sounds good on Pierre beats
Pierre himself doesnt even sound good on them
Nudy discog out now
They too busy getting copycats
you are actually right about this.
i dont know how many times ive been in a session with producers using his same exact sounds. just straight biting his swag
Southside can still go crazy rn, what's he been up too recently? Seems like he's been chillin
He said he was retiring
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.
clayco up next
Neptunes, Timbaland, Kanye era was a phase
There was nothing like it before and nothing like it afterwards imo. It’s not gonna happen again
This was the first time the producer was “all in the videos” and they had their own real stamp. They were giving niggas full songs with hooks, bridges, and all that. All the rappers had to do was spit 2 verses and the song was done. Pop/R&B artists too. They had more creative control over the music they were apart of. Plus niggas were paying BAGS for those beats. Like 6 figures if I’m not mistaken
Maybe I’m biased bc that’s one of my favorite eras for production but I don’t recall producers being that major in any other era. I don’t think the 2010s era was like that for rap producers outside of Mike Will and Metro
Super producer era ended in the 2000s lol
Lowkey this true — it’s way easier to make beats & find a producer now versus back then when it was only a handful. Makes it harder for one person to dominate.
Alchemist and Madlib are havin runs.
i don't think you could compare lex luger type run that was predicated on radio play to al and madlib

Diddy and his crew. Q-Tip, these were super producers of their time. Large Professor, Pete Rock lmao wtf
Whoever said Tyler is dumb as hell, that man been saying he wishes he could do more producing for other ppl for almost a decade now
i don't think you could compare lex luger type run that was predicated on radio play to al and madlib

Dre and Puff exist brodie
Dre and Puff exist brodie
Yea they were in a league of their own during the time
The producers I mentioned took what they did and expanded it to other genres
Not saying they were superior talent wise but Neptunes and Timbaland were doing beats for the entire industry not just rappers
