timbaland names the top producers of all-time

[JustCKing]

I'm not gonna act like Timmy didn't give great music to the game ...but subtract jiggas run and things get sketchy for Tim for me


He is a talent ....that can't be denied, but he turned really corny trying to attempt to keep that megastar producer swag after Jay started choosing just blaze, pharell and yay for most of his beats. It's like after a while j only chose his shyt for friendship/nostalgia/legacy reasons. He did lace JT in 2002...but that was pop rnb, I just don't think Tim is on a level to leave someone like Marley or primo out...two guys who span YEARS of doin it with a VAST number of artists they fed. Tim stays givin props to producers during his small 5-6 year hay day...nobody else, as tho quik, daz, Pete rock, dilla, battle cat, q-tip, RZA, havoc, alchemist, dude from badboy who fathered ye' and easy mo B and others hadn't been lacing not only hip hip but rnb for decades(did I forget to mention the dungeon family producers). Hip hop for him begins in 97/98 and ends 03/04...and that's clearly false. He knows better.

Small 5-6 year hay day? Try nearly 20 years. He gave a lot of rappers their biggest songs (and some of them their best) outside of just Jay Z. Jay ain't choosing Timbaland beats out of friendship/nostalgia. He's turned down beats from Timbaland and there's Jay Z albums that Timbaland never made even when they were good friends. We could really disrespect some legends here because we could sit here and downplay every producer you named just for the sake of playing favorites. Hip Hop for Tim starts in '97 and runs to the current.

fukking Swizz Beats and him over Preemo, Just Blaze, Quik, Dilla or Madlib?
also Pharrell isn't in any top 5, sorry, he is good but just no.

Dre and Kanye at least are reasonable picks even though I think Ye fell the fukk off after MBDTF

Swizz and Pharrell are not top 5. Keep it real.

skateboard p has hits going back to teddy riley days, his work with Jay, his work with the clipse, plus plenty of other artists...he hasn't had the impact id say dre did with snoop and the chronic album but he's damn surpassed him. dude has hits on hits on hits, and he aint in the top 5? swizz is cool but if anyone has to go its him.

 

[bigbadbossup2012]

because he listed nothing but commercial radio producers.

nothing wrong with that, since hes one of em. i could've told you that was his top 5 before i even clicked on this thread.

anybody who expected anything more from a timbaland top 5 is playing themselves. the jokes on them.





haha.

what scott storch say?

That means he was counting their pockets?

I don't know what youre referring to with that comment.

 

[bigbadbossup2012]

I don't know what youre referring to with that comment.

I said
"What makes you think he's talking finance?"
to another poster whom questioned if timbo's list was based on finances
And you responded
because he listed nothing but commercial radio producers

So i said "that means he's counting their pockets?"

Virginia low-key ran the production game and had a huge influence on the sound of music the last 20 something years . Timbo, Neptunes, Lex Luger, to a lesser degree Bink...all had sounds that dominated

my bad.

nah, not saying hes counting pockets. hes just a commercial producer. so of course, his list will reflect that.

What makes him anymore commercial than the people that some claim are missing?

 

[Knicksman20]

No Marley Marl, Pete Rock, or Premo?

 

[Wacky D]

for starters, hes really an r&b producer, turned pop producer.

theres a reason why hes only good for radio beats.

Didn't he ghost produce no more pain for Tupac? . Didn't people like Pete rock remix a bunch of marketed radio singles? Isn't that his claim to fame?
Aren't all these producers known for producing commercial ,major deal having artists?

Exactly. It's a bunch of double standards. They'll praise Pete Rock for those remixes, DJ Premier for producing for Christina Aguilera and Limp Bizkit, and all these producers for producing huge commercial rappers, but downplay everybody else for essentially doing the same thing just because. They act like Timbaland, The Neptunes and Swizz weren't all on the same albums with the likes of DJ Premier, Quik, Havoc, etc. Then they'll say, we'll he only had a 5-6 run like they don't point to the 5-6 year runs other legends had to argue their greatness. Posters with personal axes to grind because they feel like their favorite is somehow being slighted so they have to downplay the greatness of another producer. Then they justify it with weak, ridiculous arguments to discredit and downplay said artist or producer like it doesn't apply to the ones they are defending.

no. he did the drums. if he ghost-produced the track, he could've made a career out of tracks like that alone.

the rest of this post is lol. I hope youre trying to blur the lines on purpose.
