I remember that Nas Flyest Angels debacle, that whole album was like that to me.

I am sure I can think of some, esp from teenage days.

I thought the Kanye and Neptunes beats on "Kiss Of Death" were some of the worst songs on the albums, and this was when they were at the top of their game, commercially and critically.

"Hot Sauce To Go" & whatever that Kanye one was called.

Back in those times, we just read in XXL or online, "wow, ____ has Neptunes on there? A Kanye beat"? and we just knew it was going to be fire. Sometimes tried to force it.

Scott Storch on Kiss of Death too, "U Make Me Wanna"

jesus


:russ: i couldnt come up with an answer for this thread but this is it right here

This shyt did so badly that not only did they regret making it a single but they took it off the album entirely. I know this thread is about production, but this hook is atrocious.



Sounds like a bootleg version of The Game’s Put You To The Game





Let me add this song too, Em picks the worst beats sometimes.

Pete Rock should be ashamed for this one. And Masta Killa too for naming this garbage the sequel to a classic Wu track.



That is some throw back shyt, however it's flat as fukk:



Where the horns are from, very big record........one of the first records I sampled as a yute so I have a sentimental attachment to it plus my pops owns this so I may be a little biased as I heard it a lot growing up :pachaha:

Two of my favorite joints used it too:

lol @ the car salesman speech, "you know me and my team bring the heat, every time, on time, and if you thought Knock Ya Self Out, was a hit, this will take you to that next level Kiss, wait til you hear this new shyt my man"

What a missed opportunity.

Nasty Girl was cool, but yeah, I had to force that on myself in 2001.

Yep you're right. I thought Put You on Game was pretty dope though. Speaking of Game, at first I was a little bit underwhelmed by this at the time, because I was more a fan of the big epic Just Blaze beats, and the soulful Just Blaze beats. And this seemed a little bit of a repetitive and hectic type feel. But it grew on me and I do like it more now.

Also the 2nd joint below I thought didn't match with Griselda. I've heard about 4 Just Blaze and Griselda joints, and this one is my least favorite by far. I like the ones in spoiler tags more

Yea Just Blazes soul beats are classic, he gave Drake a dope beat though especially that beat transition with Ross
