In the lexicon of beat makers, Swizz is definitely ass to me. He’s a perfect example of right time right place as far as production goes. But he’s also a driven black man, who uses the access and opportunity afforded him. So, god bless him.

I feel you and that's why I tried to be careful with how I framed this discussion. Not trying to tear him down, I just think his production is...not very good. Some of it sounds like a kitten ran over a keyboard and Swizz just added some random drums.

Verzus is amazing though and I salute him for capitalizing on the concept. I watched a Breakfast Club interview with him years ago talking about how he enrolled in Harvard business school and I respect all of that to the fullest. Seems like a good dude.

What you mean 'another'? I only ever post in the arcadium so my bad if this topic was brought up before lol. I was just posting off the cuff after I went through a Swizz playlist :scust:. It was pretty damn awful. But I definitely still tried to show some respect.

Swizz forced himself to the elite class of producers because my god he’s ass :mjlol:

he got some shyt that’s good but majority of his beats are humid dumpster juice.

I’ll never forget twisted heat…. shyt sounds like a bunch of computers having a party interacting with each other :mjlol:

I turned off vol. 2 right after that and didn’t play the remaining of the album til a day later :dead:
