"Dre is the best producer but after him it don't get no better than Timbaland" - my cousin

[JustCKing]

Marley Marl!
I feel like Marley gets forgotten about these days, but he influenced a lot of motherfukkers
Timbaland run int he late 90's was something else
He had a lot of motherfukkers biting the double time sound he made popular.

Even after he had producers biting the double time, he had producers looking to the Middle East for samples after the successes of "Big Pimpin" and "Get Ur Freak On" in the 00's

 

[I love Latina women]

it wasnt just him tho

it was a team of Beowulf, O'dell (who would later join No Limit) and a few more muscians.

Notice how his beats werent as orchestrated post-cash money

See, I never followed his work THAT closely to know, but oh ok.
I'm learning something new.

Yup.
Only other nikka who was doing that shyt was Quik w/ the Truth Hurts shyt.
But Timbaland might've been a little bit before him w/ it, my memory is fuzzy on that.
I still feel like Timbaland could produce some dope shyt, but he always seem to be experimenting or either going so far left that sometimes it loses my interest.

 

[Baka's Weird Case]

Oh ok, I see. I see.
Good looking out.
Damn, I ain't know Mannie was mixing too.

 

[Dre Space Age]

Timbaland one of the few producers whose old beats sounds like they were made recently like this beat he made in 5 min.



And this shyt right here would go top 10 again if it was never heard before.

 

[Blackonbothsides]

Timbaland and Dre both changed the sound of music. Timbalands influence is seen worldwide in just about every genre of music. Dre is Dre. =

Saw Pete Rock spin all his own records over the winter. I'd put him up there

 

[Dre Space Age]

Everytime I hear this song once it HAS to go on repeat.

There is nothing quite like a Pete Rock beat.
So damn soulful!

Everytime I hear this song once it HAS to go on repeat.

I ain't like this record but it was clean.

 

[Xtz23]

I fukk with Neptune’s more then timbo

 

[JMD]

I view Timbo more of a pop producer than hip hop

some of my favorite work of his was on that 2nd Timberlake album

 

[feelosofer]

I disagree but if you're under 30 you could have an argument in terms of impact.

 

[letti cook]

Timbo my goat. I started deep diving into music right at the beginning of his run...first producer that made me cop everything he was apart of

i wouldnt even listen to rnb unless he made the beat back then
