RZA edges out everyone for me, and Premo would be close.

RZA can use sounds in his beats that no one else at the time and probably to this day can utilize, and he has all types of different rhythms that he uses along with authentic instrumentation when need be. However, RZA (and premo for that matter) haven't aged well as producers in more recent days. Dre gets the nod in that aspect.

How so? :why: Even if they have no classics (which is laughable), the production was always considered top notch. Not to mention Primo produced classic tracks for other rappers.

Who said anything about the east coast. You must be one of those who discredit anything coming from the east coast.

Although there's some EC shyt that get inflated props (same with other regions really), the early Wu shyt isn't in that category. But if yu think so, more power to you :manny:
Name me an non east coast (or east coast catered) album that's not commercially successful,that gets called CLASSIC on this board like ab illmatic or OB4CL

I'm just saying. Some dudes here really have this strong anti-east coast vibe. Not our fault the region produced most of the GOAT rap classics :manny:

a) rap is very regional. You're brought up to dikkride the music coming out your own region and put it on a pedestal above others, even if it's trash

b) NY has been arrogant about the :trash: they make while shytting on other coasts, which creates resentment

c) insecurity is a motha. The other coasts know the deal when it comes to the East but many still feel a type of way

Kanye out here continuing to change landscape sonically. From his work on Jay Z's albums to his own, Kanye has pushed hip hop's musical advancement.

GOAT producer as far as Im concerned.

Cant discredit Premier though. Too many classic beats to remember them all
