My top 10 right now off the top of my head:

1. Young Chop
2. Harry Fraud
3. Mike Will
4. digi+phonics (Soundwave, Dave Free, Willie B, Taebeast)
5. Lex Luger
6. Big K.R.I.T.
7. Hit Boy
8. T-Minus
9. Alchemist
10. Lil' Lody

I know I'm gonna catch hate for having Chop so high but that's my personal opinion. I know his beats sound similar but they just go hard and have great replay value. Music is entertainment at the end of the day and Chop has some great entertainment value in his beats. Besides the top 3 to me is interchangeable.

Cardo, DJ Spinz, DJ Dahi, THC, Zaythoven, Jahlil Beats, Drumma Boy, Key Wane are all good up and comers

Not trying to argue with your lists just providing my opinions on the producers you guys listed

Oddisee
Showbiz
Alchemist
Oh No
Fizzy Womack
Kev Brown
Nottz
Jake One
Exile
Roc Marciano

Oddisee is nice, probably top 25 for me
Jake One I really liked on that album he did with Free and even before with his White Van joint but this year outside a couple of tracks I haven't heard much. That's why I said RIGHT NOW
Exile - I wasnt really feelin the new joint with Blu. He needs to prove he is evolving as an artist but evolving in a positive manner.
Roc Marci is cool but he probably like top 35 (IMO of course)

The rest shouldn't be anywhere near the current list

T-Minus

J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League

Cardiak

Arthur McArthur

Mike Will

Boi-1da

Ke'Noe

Pharrell (laced Kendrick w/ "good kid", laced wiz w/ "Rise Above", laced Tyga w/ "Lil' Homie" even liked Ross's "Presidential")

No I.D.

DJ Toomp ("Trap Back Jumpin" is still hard as is "Who Want Some")

Some good choices No I.D. and JUSTICE League in particular are really close to top 10. Toomp in 2013 tho?? And which joints did Arthur McArthur do?

I was stuck, so I just started thinking about the songs I been bumpin' lately and those Toomp tracks just popped up. As far as Arthur McArthur, he did:

Tyga feat. Wale & Nas- Kings & Queens
Rick Ross- MMG Untouchable (co-produced w/ Boi-1da)
Rick Ross- Mine Games
Big Boi- Raspberries

Nottz is brilliant. He's the producers producer. His ep was fresh.


Oh No continues to get show he's the other genius in the family...his work on Gangrene & Ohnomite is STELLAR.


Showbiz has also completely updated his sound and dropped two albums this year both totally different but equally pristine. He's become an amazing r&b producer on the low. He could SAVE Mary J Blige right now.


Fizzy killed Fizzyology. He just makes great music. It's just in him to be dope.

And Kev Brown actually switched his shyt up too this year. I could play you beats from him that slay people's careers.


But I also like some of the newer sounds like digi phonics and 40.
