    @AggyAF I know you were a big supporter of ATCQ's last album released in 2016 and wholly produced by Q-Tip (who BTW is not or wasn't visible a lot in the current era of rap)... it was the group's first album in 18 years. A long time in rap to space album releases


    That same album was critically acclaimed and did commercially well. You named it album of 2016...




    So why a different approach when viewing Dr. Dre's credentials?



    Relevance or irrelevance in HipHop music should be a non factor as fa as I'm concerned as far as the music is dope...

    Dr Dre's music isn't dope anymore, he's washed

    On an album where he had a number of producers. Yes, I went there. Cause yall LOVE going there when it comes to Kanye.

    Y'all asking about relevance though nobody brought the album for the other producers

    Idk the rules about the multiple producer thing but there's a video of him working with extra producers and if I remember correctly they describe how Dre is like the choir director he is still heavily involved in the production


    Kanye started doing this and we got yeezus......

    Bottomline is the man can say hes going to work with anybody poppin at any given day and people will check for it regardless. Nobody would dare say Prince Michael Jackson The Rolling Stones are irrelevant just because they havent released material in a while. Gotta show respect for their work and the milestones theyve achieved. But for some odd reason Hip Hop fans in this era dont give a damn.

    hiphop fans nowadays have that fast food mentality. Future drops 10 "albums" in one year and they try and label each tape a classic. meanwhile the ? has no impact.

    look how they treat lil wayne now. poor wayne couldnt even get out the first round in Stews thread against big Krit. a ? who is basically a mixtape rapper. i dont like to dab in southern affairs but damn.

    Krits mixtapes are albums he produced over original production. He raps about way more mature topics than Wayne. But we dont need to rehash that in here.

    Good thing Kanye has popped up in the convo...


    Now Ye appeals to a large demographic of HipHop fans (teens, 30 year olds to middle aged people) as a mainstream artiste. He's a guy who's still very much commercially viable and relevant (LOL)


    But as a recording artiste peep the producers who he works with on his albums: Pete Rock, DJ Premier, MadLIB, Q-Tip, Rick Rubin, Havoc, Mike Dean, RZA, No ID. ... you get the drift


    These producers I listed would be branded 'irrelevant' by the newer generation today.

    Welp, it was nice getting to virtually know you @FaggyAF! The I.C. was boring and dull until your presence captivated my attention. Within 6 1/2 years, you have managed to accomplish what so many failed to deliver. Just for that, I will miss and cherish those moments! Goodbye and take care my love! <3<3<3<3
