Which producer does the soul sample the best

[mr. smoke weed]

Rza, just blaze, kanye or Dilla?

 

[Suicide King]

RZA

 

[pointproven214]

kanye

 

[BronxFleeZ]

kanye, rza. flipping is literally doing mad shyt to it not just speeding it up and being lazy. like these 2 nikkas chop the fukk out of samples and put em to make it sound like its only sped up. nikkas is gods man forreal.

 

[I love Latina women]

if i'm to go by the selections givin' then i'd say rza but overall?

i'd say the bomb squad. technically, they sampled "soul" records and imo are the masters of samplin', period. nobody took samples and used them better than the bomb squad. they are the masters of not only "soul" samplin', but samplin' period

 

[Mac Casper]

Kanye is on another level with it

 

[KwamePiesie]

out of those 4?
Dilla

 

[the cac mamba]

 

[L. Deezy]

Kanye out of this group easy..

Pete Rock is GOAT

 

[Mr Rager]

Any answer other than Kanye is nonsense

 

[Knicksman20]

Kanye out of this group easy..

Pete Rock is GOAT

Was gonna ask why Pete Rock wasn't in this thread

 

[mr. smoke weed]

Brehs I personally think Dilla does kanye's style better than him (although Kanye does a mean version of Dilla beats), and would go with rza just above dilla

 

[hoodheronova]

Pete rock

 

[ManBearPig]

I understand RZA > West but West beats RZA in this category.

But the answer is the Soul Brother #1

I think it depends on your taste. I'd say dilla is more creative like he chooses the best samples and puts them where you'd least expect but tries not as hard it's more simple but his beats are by far the most soulful. And kanye is more skilled almost like it's an art for him. He creates something new. His own sound.

I don't know too much about rza to comment but he has more of a niche hip hop sound and seemed focused on rhythm over samples on the songs I heard. His samples are part of the song but don't make the song.

But Dilla is
