So obviously inspired by the Hot 97 segment, and they have done one on producers but it wasn't that competitive imo.

I thought I'd do one of my own and make it real tough.

So whoever you say gotta go NEVER EVER EXISTED, PERIOD. That means all their albums are gone, all the songs they produced on other albums gone, maybe the artists they helped to bring up are gone too.

I'll just bring up a few feats from each:

Dr. Dre - NWA, Dre solo, Snoop, Eminem etc.
DJ Premier - Gang Starr, Jeru, some Nas, Jay and pretty much everyone joints
Q-Tip - Tribe, produced some Mobb Deep stuff, Illmatic etc.
RZA - Wu-Tang Clan in its entirety

I honestly think DJ Premier has to go
:to:

Tribe and Wu aren't going anywhere as far as I'm concerned. I prefer Doggystyle to anything Premo has done, so that's the basis of my decision tbh.

But damn this is tough as shyt.

As a beatmaker i have to say RZA.

I'm curious as to your reasoning but that's not the main point.

You'll never listen to RZA-produced Wu joints in your life if you choose him as the gotta go option, you realise that?

Also chances are you'll never hear a Wu member period since he put them all on.

I'd love to hear the reasoning behind people's decisions. This really gave me a headache but as I explained above, there was reason to remove DJ Premier.

changed my vote!

Dr. Dre gotta go for me.

I can live without Doggystyle tbh in the grand scheme of things, as hard as it sounds. But that's the only Dre contribution I REALLY care for, relative to what the other 3 bring to the table

DJ Premier simply cannot go, just too many important songs per album, even if one or two tracks, especially on Illmatic and Reasonable Doubt (which I totally forgot about for some reason).

Out of these 4, I'd have to go with Dr. Dre.

Outside of Doggystyle, The Chronic, 2001, and some individual tracks, I'd be ok.
