would you say dr. dre is the greatest hip hop producer of all time?

[Knicksman20]

Who is,TO YOU?

I'd say between Premo, Rza, Erick Sermon or Marley Marl

 

[SirBiatch]

I've been everywhere. ANd offered opinion on two artists ,i'd expect you to comprehend my point. Guess you have issues in that department. Ask your mother for help

Great debaters don't run from debate. Why are you the exception?

I love what them dudes did,i particularly give props to Marley,Erick and Rza. Even though I love some premo beats. I feel nikkas that lead crews to the promised land,earned the most props. No one has led crews to the top like dre,NO ONE. I love his beats more too. But i feel stat wise no one is a match.

Strictly hip hop - Dre

Hip Hop & R&B - Timbo

Best run - Neptunes

prolly facutal....altho best run maybe scott storch also for just a quick big run

 

[1-8-7-Skillz]

Yep, Dre is my fav producer ever
Just wish he would release all of his unreleased tracks.
Bet he got EVERYTHING he ever produced stored somewhere but will never release it

 

[JustCKing]

Dre NEVER had a "run" like the Neptunes. Dre had longevity tho.

The Neptunes are among my favorite producers, but they had a SINGLES run vs. Dr. Dre's ALBUM run. In that regard, I can't even put The Neptunes over Timbaland. Dre has produced bigger, more legendary albums than The Neptunes.

 

[Mac Casper]

I think best is between rza and and premo. Because they have, to me, the most individual songs that bang with different artist.

Too difficult to decipher what Dre actually produced.

And I got zaytoven in my top five

Nah, Storch had a great run, but in terms of hits, people are seriously underrating Timbaland's run. Dre still GOAT though.

 

[Unknown Poster]

He is. He'd even agree with you. Same with RZA. Same with Pete Rock. Same with Timbo. There's no them without Dre and they'd admit it as well as myself cause he's a big influence on what I do. HE's not just a beatmaker, or engineer, or rapper, or DJ, he's turned himself into a BRAND. Which is what we would all want to do.

He made it on his own to through hard work as well.

He's broken some of the most successful rappers and artists of all time including Snoop Dogg, Warren G. Nate Dogg, and Eminem.

There is no one that compares in this regard as far as still remaining as commercially viable through almost 3 decades with a discography to match.

Most successful, yes.

But producing is such a broad topic.

There are many claims to the title for different reasons.

Most successful: Dr. Dre.

Best Run: Dr. Dre
Most creative: Rza
Best sample flipper: ? one of them old head east coast producers

Most influential: ? This is a tough question because in reality every producer wanted to make music as good as dre's down to the mixing. But most influential is something that would go to a producer that kept their sound the same the entire time. dre didnt do that. he switched his sound up numerous times.

Best Drums: ? DRE hands down

Best mix: Dr. Dre (not even up for debate)

MY CHOICES^^^

Have the Neptunes ever produced the Lion's share of a classic album? I dont know.

I think Timbo is in discussion for best drums
