Here's the strange think bout Go Deep not sure how true it is but word was jus like The Ummah low key did Got till it's gone Quik did Go Deep

Jimmy spoke on got til its gone. He gave an intricate step by step breakdown on how he made it.

According to him he just made a "dilla type beat"

He gave dilla props for his influence.

It's crazy their contributions really set the soundscape for mid-uptempo contemporary R&B. Like Pharell/Neptunes, Timbaland the Dream all owe a debt to these two among others.

Actually Quincy Jones, Norman Whitfield, Curtis Mayfield, Isaac Hayes, etc birthed all of them.

No disrespect to Face, but production-wise, he cant hang with Jam and Lewis
Most Face productions sound like Face records with someone else on lead vocals and Face on backgrounds
Jam and Lewis, while they definitely have sonic signatures, tailor the song to the artist which is what a producer is supposed to do
