Id put SGP in the top 20 all time... T Minus maybe top 25. I wanna put Clams in the top 15 because he has the potential but hes not even dedicated to hip hop! Only produced to put himself through school.. His best work is behind him.

I think Harry Fraud could be top 10 if he keeps evolving

Nobody except Premier, Quik, and Dre....

If Just Blaze comes back strong, then he could...

Alchemist is another one that has a chance

clams top 15 :dead:

harry fraud top 10 :leon:

:wow2: negging never felt so good

I said Fraud has the potential to be top 10. I wouldnt even put him in the top 30 yet. Same with Clams. if he was putting out LLA material every year you cant even deny that he would be one of the greatest

honestly, id have to see a much larger body of work and some consistency. Clams was cookin in 2011 then he took a year off and in 2013 gave his flagship client (Rocky) 2 duds. legends dont do shyt like that, gotta want it

Harry has the work ethic, and i do think hes a pretty interesting and versatile producer. sample game crazy, sometimes his stuff doesnt work but when you work with unusual stuff like electronic guitars thats gonna happen

Ya thats what I was saying about Clams. I definitely dont think he belongs in the discussion.. but what people dont realize is producing is just a hobby for him. If he did it full time hed be fukking amazing.

yea thats the book on him, he has another instro EP coming but just not enough material

im only going off guys from the past 4-5 years, obviously guys like ALC and Madlib are already in peoples top 5 including mine. Ski Beatz is very active but has also been in hip hop for 22 years


Lee Bannon has put out some really crazy shyt, thats a guy id add to the list. mostly underground clients but being Badass's DJ should help his profile
