"Producer/MC Appreciation…."
Tue Nov-04-14 11:48 PM by spidey

  

          

In most genres of music, artists that play more than one role in in creating the music are appreciated and held in higher esteem (like Dylan and The Beatles), and to me, I find myself diggin cats who are producing their own ish, and also coming correct on M-I-C….so let's give it up for the dual threat talents of Hip Hop…off the dome…

Diamond D-producer extraordinaire, and holds his own on the mic….
RZA-may be slipping in both areas, but no denying what he has done…
Q-Tip-finding out over the past 4-5 years that he did a lot of the early Tribe ish, impressive…
Pete Rock-the production side is no question, but even on the mic, dude was/is entertaining…
Blueprint-people sleep on this brother, a threat on both fronts…
EL-P-no words, just that good...
Black Milk-Talented
Large Professor-can't forget this pioneer…
J-Dilla-the production is obvious, did his thing on the mic too…
Havoc-kinda like RZA, slippin, but again, can't front on what he did…
Oddisee-crazy impressed with that cat…

Again, just some impressive, all around talented brothers….add on...

Integrity is the Cornerstone of Artistry...

Quik is not my taste, but I respect the longevity….as far as Kanye, I'm one of those people that dig the beats, but not the MC skills, and I accept the coming hate for that statement….lol….

CD - meh. he said some funny and clever things, but...
LR - he's getting better! but...
G - okay, now i'm taking him seriously.

MBDTF - dude has NO FEAR. spitting some serious shit, AND that off-key singing??? became one of my fav mc's off the strength of this lp.
WTT - kanye>jayz
CS - more than held his own, and pretty much outshined everyone.
Y - continues to win me over, with his passion alone.

I'm mad I didn't hear Beauty & the Beat until around 3 years ago.

Definitely gotta mention Doom as well, and Blu is a pretty underrated producer.
