Bucktown, U.S.A. (Harlem, NY) + 'Cuse, NY
Definitely a 10.

A legendary influential producer who also helped birth some of the greats such as Big Daddy Kane, Kool G Rap, Masta Ace, Intelligent Hoodlum (aka Tragedy Khadafi) and more.

Before Premier, Pete Rock, RZA, etc his style (along with the bomb squad) was THE sound in NYC.

Marly definitely invented the boom bap as we know to be today.

Honestly there was a lot different N.Y. "sounds". How one sound came to dominate is a thread in to its self.

Track for track he was the top producer from 88-90. Not just in NY but in ANY region... yea even better than Dre & better than Hank Shocklee.

Basically, what I mean is that during the late 80s his sound along with the bomb squad was the hottest in NYC and other producers at the time were influenced (and followed) them. The sound of Hip hop in NYC changed a lot during the late 80s heading into the 90s.

Marley has a lot of credited/uncredited productions for other artists like LL etc.

During the late 80s, the Bomb Squad sound was what of NY producers we're trying to emulate, then heading into the early 90s Jazz/Boom-Bap (ATCQ, EPMD, early Premier, mid-late BDP) was the trend in productions.

By '93 hip-hop's sound, the sound on east (NYC) changed for the most part following the style of Wu & Black Moon. If you listen to east coast albums released between 92-94 they all have something in common; hard drums with dark jazzy like samples & signature Pete Rock like horns.
