verry tough decision, the GOAT (and Mark Batson and Dawaun Parker) put his foot into both of those albums

The Big Bang is slept on, Relapse had some dope production too, imagine if those beats were given to someone else. This Busta joint is hard that Dre produced.

Beats wise the big bang is one of the greatest rap albums of all time

Sounds like from those drums
he is also credited on the liner notes so I’m guessing he is.
He has so many ghost producer that i dont know which are is his beats or just ghost producedSounds like from those drums

Sometimes you could tell from his snares, I notice some joints off the Big Bang, Relapse and other joints that he supposedly produced got similar drum patterns for example these joints below. But he could have ghost producers or people who are giving him input into those beats.

He has co-producers and musicians, not ghost producers. They are listed in the liner notes.
Dre has a signature style. Over the years, and co-producers changed, but his style of arranging and putting together the sounds has not. It is why when these co-producers, musicians do tracks on their own, the beats don't sound the same.
Like the Don't carried away beat. Sounds like the type of tracks Dre produced around that time period. Around the 2001 period and beyond. Dre had worked with Mel Man (hard drums) and Scott Storch (repetitive keyboard stabs) on the 2001 album. Sounded nothing like G-funk (with Warren G and Daz) or his NWA days (Yella). He stuck with this sound for a while. Even through Em's Relapse album you can hear some of it. But Storch, nor Mel-Man were working with him on the Em or Busta albums. Yet you can hear Dre's signature style from that time period.

They ALLL have Dre involved, dont get it twisted, it's his vision, his ear, his mixing. IN THE MUSIC WORLD this is what you call being a producer, bringing the musicians together and putting it piece by piece. Come on breh, don't trash Dre's name like that, thought out of all people you'd know better

i think the busta beats is dope, but those eminem beats had me playing relapse way more than i usually do eminem albums. eminem was really rhyming crazy on there but the accents and content was too much. the way he rhymed, connected verses and syllables was masterful. so in a way he wasted the beats- if he just rapped like he did maybe on the eminem show. i think that album would have got more respect. the production was excellent to me, it's aged well also. always gotta ask if dre really did it all though- i think he had his stamp on it but was actually putting it together is the question.
i hate questioning dre but it's legit. still the album beats are great and sonically crisp.
edit: rep for anyone who got the instrumentals to relapse, i been searching online can't find a good link for it.
