Yo come on now DR. DRE is the greatest of all times period! everybody cant stay on top forever, every Producer will fall off, look at RZA and Preme. But he's up there though
EAZY DUZ IT, STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON, NOBODY CAN DO IT BETTER, MICHEL'LE, NIGGAZ4LIFE, THE CHRONIC, ? , 2001, THAT'S 8 CLASSIC ALBUMS HE PRODUCED -
Dilla has an excuse tho. He's dead
wats dre's excuse?
The ? is pushin 50 in a teenage dominated genre, has a family, runnin a record label that's been alive for a decade, has thousands of records where he doesn't need to be all in the limelight to make money anymore. Not enough? -
Since Kanye doesn't rely on Gangsta ? I say yes he will be better than Dre
LOL @ Dre doin Gangsta ? till he's 50
Kanye is a better producer today than Dr. Dre but so are a lot of producers. Dre in his prime had way more hits than Kanye so this is like saying Kevin Durant is a better basketball player than Jordan b/c he fell off. I understand that's a physical sport where age is more important but I think it's fair to think most rappers/producers will not be as good when they're getting up to 40 & 50.
Kanye has 2-3 classics and worked with a lot of artists while Dre has 2 classics both better than Kanye's best album and been the main producer for 3 power house labels in Ruthless, Death Row & Aftermath. While I think his Death Row days are his best, you could make the argument for the other 2 with NWA or his help with Eminem, Obie, 50 cent, Game, etc.
I agree that Dre seems to suck these days but that doesn't erase history and his contribution to it. -

Nah, these ? gon negate decades worth of work because he hasn't released that much LATELY. We in a ADD society foreal. That's one of the main reasons the hip-hop game ? up in the first place. -
Somebody point me to the post where I said Dre was not talented????

Has Kanye West ever taken credit for producing a song that he didn't really produce? Cause Pac said Dre did...

Down & Out? That's the only one... and even then, I think it was other people just saying it was his -
We dont even know what dre is responsible for producing besides the world class wreckin crew, dre the most overrated person in hip hop

>>>> Dr. Dre

hell no. dre practically created rap lol

When was the last time Dre made a truly great beat without help from someone
Ironically, Dr. Dre has made several beats by his lonely since Kanye has. "Ridaz" >>>> "Haters" and "Young Forever". Those are some of the last beats either producer did on their own.
Again, people are giving Kanye a pass for using co-producers or are simply unaware that dude rarely works alone these days behind the boards. -

Glad you brought that up:

Former Diddy-affiliated producer and ex-Kanye West mentor Deric “D-Dot” Angelettie said that he and the Louis Vuitton Don are on speaking terms, though he feels slighted by his one-time protégé.
“When we see each other we shake each other hands and say what’s up, but he didn’t do right by his O.G.,” D-Dot, who is also known for his famous alter-ego The Mad Rapper, told XXLMag.com. “I didn’t do nothing to him. I didn’t rob him. All that ghost production ? he started and had the world makin’ ‘em think that he did everything.”
The two have experienced friction over West alleging that D-Dot, who was a member of the Bad Boy production squad The Hitmen and created tracks including The Notorious B.I.G.’s “Hypnotize” and Diddy’s “It’s All About the Benjamins,” took credit for beats that an up-and-coming West produced.
“He’s doin’ it right now and been doin’ for the last 5 or 6 years,” D-Dot said, “so all that ? he had people believing is actually disrespectful by believing that somebody like myself would actually take his music and rob him and put my name on it like he didn’t get credit.”
Look out for the full feature on D-Dot next Tuesday (June 21). —Lauren Carter with additional reporting by Carl Chery
^^^ That's from an interview two days ago of D. Dot clarifying that Kanye is doing now what Kanye accused him of doing. -

We'll see wat becomes of this -

Why ask what was the last great beat that Dre created by himself, when Kanye doesn't even make beats by himself anymore? Looking closely at what both producers have done in the past five years, Dre definitely gives Kanye competition. -

No he doesnt though.... they both use co producers yes... but the sheer output of what they have put out in the past 5/6 years Ye>>Dre (past 6 years) -

lol I don't think so
Like I said even on Ye's worst album 808s he still had some great production like Robocop (which he did himself) -
Feelings have been caught. I was born in the 80s. And Dre barely even did anything for nuthin but a g thang
How does this pass for genius though?
It's not really different from what Dre did with Leon Haywood. -
Anyone who says Dre has put out better work than Ye in the past 6 years is probably an old head..........
Dre a legend yes... thats irrefutable
He just hasnt put out legendary ? in a while
We're not talking 80's or 90's.... we're talking 05-now -

Naw that Leon Haywood sample was laid out for him on a platter lol
I feel the Doors sample took just a lil bit more work -
