The Neptunes

He's a dope chopper but his drum choices were always weak and ruined a lot of beats.

His snares were horrible when he started but listen to his newer shyt, he's gotten a lot better.

Nope.

 

[TheDarceKnight]

In my personal top 10.

Of all time, objectively? I'd say top 15-25. Depending on what you value or listen for.

He squandered his stable and had Nicolay out pacing him when the gimmick of being the producer on protools ran out.

That being said, dude is humble as fukk and dj'ed a battle session at the Apache in the A, and always showed love. Personally I always felt like Crysis was the break out of the two but once the JUST US league sorta crumbled no one was checking on any of them like that any more outside the usual suspects. Top 15 for sure though for having some of the coldest soul samples and matching the best with some underground talent in the early oughts.

Khrysis is definitely the better of the two and 9th points this out all the time. 9th is sort of a renaissance man and has been for a while, with one hand in many different areas. But Khrysis has been breathing and eating beats and beats and nothing buts beats since 2001/2002 or so. Khrysis is definitely a little more experimental. He's changed his style a lot. he even went through a huge no samples/synth beat phase, and some others, and now he's really found a great sound that suits him that I think is heavily inspired by Dilla, Madlib, and Nottz.

He's never really broken out as big as his talent really is, and I'm not sure if he ever will, but I hope he does. He's way way more talented than he gets credit for.

 

[DeuceCypherUno]

Top 25.

 

[ThaRealness]

Love 9th, but I put him on a lower tier then his contemporaries (Alchemist, Madlib, Just Blaze, Kanye, Dilla, Doom), for the simple reason that he never switched his drums up!

 

[Lord Mecca]

9th was definitely running shyt for a lil minute. With that said, I don't really listen to his shyt as much anymore.

One of his top 5 beats:



Animal definitely one of my favorite 9th beats... Murs killed that shyt too.

"If I hit you on the chirp with a verse you better roger that
Picture n word perfect from the land where the Dodgers at
Tryin to get some money with some p*ssy on the side of that"

But yeah 9th is top 50 maybe... couldn't sit here and make a list but there's a lot of catalogues I'd go for before his. He had a good run but became kinda redundant after a while.

 

[Sound (∀√a) Maths]

His snares were horrible when he started but listen to his newer shyt, he's gotten a lot better.

I'll check it out. I'm glad others see this. Beats were dope but drum choices just had me like ? Did he even listen to them or mix?

 

[GPBear]

Top 15 easy

 

[deeznutz]

9th ain't even better than Daz

Dope beat maker tho I'd say I could fit him in my top 30
