there are too many good producers to name a numer one straight out every great producer left a mark in history. dr. dre, the rza, 45 king, clark kent, large professor, premier, j dilla, madlib, alchemist, dj muggs, havoc (mobb deep), 9th wonder, rjd2, and a million more. you may prefer one style more than another but that is just a preference not a validation of being number one. all of the guys listed above are great and to be respected for arguably hip hop wouldnt be the same without 1 of them
@BlueTrane5 In my opinion, Premo, Dre, and 9th > Madlib. He's dope don't get me wrong, but I'm not sure if he's top 10 for me. He needs more dope material to be higher. His best work is Shades of Blue, The Unseen, and of course Madvillainy with Madvillain and all of those are good but not great to me. I'd personally also put Pete Rock, Kno, and Kanye above Madlib too.
@IV619 they in my top 10 i just dont see them being over Dilla,Dre, or preemo at all, maybe 9th or Nujabes, but Nujabes is more of a you either love his music or just dont like it so i had to put him in my top 5
@byrongilliam1 wow..... How can you think J is better than Primo, and where is that SWORD SHARPENING CHOPPIN' HEADZ OFF SHAOLIN WU TANG MARKSMAN ----- THE RZA -----
@stillmatic117 because preemo has dope beats and all and so does RZA but the only producers to hit me on that spiritual level are J Dilla and Nujabes, Dilla is the only producer(in my opinion) who can hit someone on the spirtual level and still make an all around dope beat that you can break your neck to
@byrongilliam1 WHATTTTT?!?!?!???!??? dude ok i understand u might say that, because u may like nujabes more than flying lotus and madlib, but HELLL NO there is no way in hell that nujabes is better than Flying lotus and Madlib!!!!!!!!!!!!!! these are two of the greatest musicains of our era!!!!!!! are u one of thoses dudes who fell nujabes is the best now that hes dead??? then u put 9th wonder over nujabes, so ur saying that 9th wonder is ALSO better than flying lotus and Madlibn and nujabes???
@Dreal05starnation haha dude, the thing i like about nujabes is something that you can comprehend, hes the only other producer besides Dilla that has that spiritual, out of body experience that i get when i listen to his music, i can just listen to his beats and automatically my mood changes. its hard to explain
@byrongilliam1 lolol but flying lotus does the same exact thing, his beats dont need words im tellin you, u have to listen i kno the felling u get, its like me when i listen to flying lotus sketch book or j dilla waves, or 9th wonder oasis
@Dreal05starnation haha well lebron been suckin throughout the finals so i dont see ur point. and 9th wonder has very different drums bro, they are two completely different artist, they sound nothing alike
@byrongilliam1 i respect ur opinon and what u feel but those are your favorites, ur opinion is that 9th wonder is better than a musican like fly lo and madlib, but u say nujabes isnt better than 9th???? i really cant agree with you on that at all man i really can't and maybe its because i really study producers, as im a producer my self, but ANYBODY who listens to jdilla and flylo will tell you that FLYLO is a mix between j dilla, madlib with some space sprinkeld, so u cant say 9th is better!!!
@Dreal05starnation i study producers too, im not a producer but i do know what im talking about, 9th wonder has beats that make me wanna break my neck but still they can be chill at the same time, i havent anything from flylo or madlib like that, id be good though if u recommended some albums/songs by them
@byrongilliam1 lolol listen to madlibs beats on CHAMPION SOUND starting with Mc nAsty filth...and Listen to flying lotus, fall in love j dilla tribute, and i dont kno if ur ready for his cosmogramma album, but listen to galaxy in janaki by fly lo....uhhh understanding by madlib.....roberta flack by fly lo....tea leaf dancers by fly lo.......undefeatd freestyle by elzhi is produced by madlib...so check out flying lotus cosmogramma or la and madlib beat konducta goooooood shit to start with
@byrongilliam1 lolol and uve lost all credibilty for saying 9th wonder is basically better than flying lotus madlib AND nujabes hahah preomo is like micheal jordan flylo is like lebron james flo WILL go down as one of the best ever defbntly in the top three so umm me saying flyings letos will be better than preemo or you saying 9th wonder is better than flylo madlib AND nujabes
@Dreal05starnation for me Nujabes and 9th go back and forth, at the time i wrote that comment i had been listenin to 9th's beatapes all day for a few weeks, but the comparison to flyo and preemo doesnt make sense, michael jordan is out the game while lebron is still in it, flylo and preemo are both still makin dope beats. flyo isnt about to preemo like that, but it is refreshing to have a debate over good artists. im glad your not a dumbass and you know what your talking about so i cant diss u
@byrongilliam1 mike jordon as in he already made a name for himself as being one of the best, flying lotus beat are on a whole nother level, and mike jordan as in jordan may be the best but flying lotus will be better than all of them when its all said and done, 9th wonder is a great artist just like nujabes, but flyo is dilla man dont u get that hahah he's dilla in space mixed with madlib, u gotta be able to keep uup tih him lol 9th wonder has same drums and baseline, he not as not versitle
@byrongilliam1 no u cant compare flylo to nujabes!!!!!!!!! nujabes is nice dont get me wrong but flylo is like the best producer today living next to madlib, they are the very best right now, nujabes was really good, but madlib and fly lo both are doing shit way ahead of there time man, flying lotus in my opinion is right there with fly lo, did u ever listen to fly lo, he came out right after dilla died and picked up right where he left off nujabes 9th wonder dre preemom are NOT better than fly
@byrongilliam1 i got to love your list dawg but i m serious i respect j dilla project seriously he was a great producer 4 real but he ain t got hype and as many shit and talent as my may man premo and pete rock my list would be the next for me as a new yorker :

5 J DILLA
6 DR DRE
7 BUCKWILD

What up? im a 15 yr. old emcee i go by imPulse, stop by my channel n plz gimme some feedback its really appreciated... i need YOU to help me get better :D!
man joe im from the chi and i have to agree... man yall got it, the d has my favorite mcs and producers. man milk is crazy, that mans beats are fuckin nuts. that motown 25 blew me awy with royce too!!!!! yo why doesnt em fuck with these dudes? what he cant make a lil mixtape or something? hes fuckin a hall of famer, dude go back to the roots and make a detroit mixtape! hip hop needs that shit!
@HipHopHead15 Elzhi easily makes better music. Easily. Europass, The Slum Village s/t, and the mixtape with this shit on it? All of those albums are fire. This dude is incredible.
@TheLyricalDisciple i respect ur opinion and all but wtf? personally i would of had J Dilla as number 1 but i mean u really cant put Exile and Dre above him, maybe Preemo and possibly Pete just because that his main influence but definetly not Exile
@8illmatic3 skills do equal talent, unfortunately talent doesn't equate to stardom. i like to chalk today's hip hop trends up to a George Carlin quote:
"think of how smart the average human being is. then realize that half the population is dumber than that."
intelligent hip hop requires an intelligent mind to be able to appreciate it. just my two cents. respect to the listeners.
@joojoobomb Thanks alot! I've finally seen someone on here that gets it! Listeners have more influence thatn they think! If you wanna hear real hip-hop again at the forefront of music like the golden era then demand it! Stop buying bs records by bs artist's. Flood the radiostation with emails and phone calls! Otherwise be glad that sum ppl sitll make music they actually like instead of trying to tailor it to what they think fans wanna hear... I love hip hop!
@sliccmoufschalaa it's really hard to talk to people who listen to the radio because they think it's US that's closed minded when it comes to music. umm.NO! it's just that it's so predictibly bad, and you know exactly how every track is going to go. you try to talk dilla and production with people, they come back with timbaland, pherell and swizz beats. i damn near died when i heard that shit. some people actually believe what they listen to is hip hop? that weezy/drake shit? please! THIS is it!
@tylerstone1980 too right, i actually get vexed when people try tell me bowt they know hip hop from when it was at its best and then drop a name like 50 cent......
@dzire08 I actually like some of 50's early songs and Lloyd Banks is actually worth listening to, but if someone were to mention 50 cent reign as hip hop at it's best I would probably get an aggravated assault charge!!!!! Seriously that type of disrespect should be dealt with and when you encounter it take your time and school whomever it may they may just be ignorant, but most are just stupid!! I know I shouldn't but i get pissed when that happens...
@tylerstone1980 Ur right I grew up listening to the radio when you had to be dope to get on! I remember waiting with my finger on the pause button to start recording cats with lyrics like elzhi. Im really in love with real hip hop music and it literally hurts me to hear when sum ppl dont get it. Timbaland is ok at best. pherell and swizz are elementary!! They r so small in comparison to a guy like dilla, premier, madlib, or pete rock. I miss the real being out front.
@tylerstone1980 I had a young producer tell me a few weeks ago that using samples isn't creative! Then when I critiqued his beats and listened to all those stock sounds and showed him how to chop samples and using creative means for percussion he opened up a bit, but still thinks going str8 triton on beats is more creative!!! This is the ignorance we deal with not to mention he thought nitty(from the young joc song) was one of the best in the game!!! SAD TRULY SAD!
i like said this to almos tall beats of j dilla but once again a nother proof that j dilla wasnt human,and elzhi's lyrics are beyond phemononal,one of my favorite hiphop songs ever
dilla is serious...soulful music...your missed dearly my man...But u live on thru these classic jams...Hopefully we can do the same over here at High and Mighty Entertainment..Peace
Nuff Respect!!

@TheLyricalDisciple i respect ur opinion and all but wtf? personally i would of had J Dilla as number 1 but i mean u really cant put Exile and Dre above him, maybe Preemo and possibly Pete just because that his main influence but definetly not Exile
byrongilliam1 1 year ago
@byrongilliam1 your right after rethinking it i would put Dilla ahead of him.. Exile is a genius tho and continues to bring out the best of artists.

@byrongilliam1 yea, i think hes a great producer, i just dont see him as being in the top 5 or over Dilla, sorry im just a big Dilla fan

Pete Rock and Primo are tied for the best, then Dre and RZA are tied for the 2nd best and then comes Dilla.

8illmatic3 1 year ago
@8illmatic3 skills do equal talent, unfortunately talent doesn't equate to stardom. i like to chalk today's hip hop trends up to a George Carlin quote:
"think of how smart the average human being is. then realize that half the population is dumber than that."
intelligent hip hop requires an intelligent mind to be able to appreciate it. just my two cents. respect to the listeners.

8illmatic3 1 year ago
@joojoobomb Thanks alot! I've finally seen someone on here that gets it! Listeners have more influence thatn they think! If you wanna hear real hip-hop again at the forefront of music like the golden era then demand it! Stop buying bs records by bs artist's. Flood the radiostation with emails and phone calls! Otherwise be glad that sum ppl sitll make music they actually like instead of trying to tailor it to what they think fans wanna hear... I love hip hop!
sliccmoufschalaa 1 year ago 14
@sliccmoufschalaa it's really hard to talk to people who listen to the radio because they think it's US that's closed minded when it comes to music. umm.NO! it's just that it's so predictibly bad, and you know exactly how every track is going to go. you try to talk dilla and production with people, they come back with timbaland, pherell and swizz beats. i damn near died when i heard that shit. some people actually believe what they listen to is hip hop? that weezy/drake shit? please! THIS is it!

@tylerstone1980 too right, i actually get vexed when people try tell me bowt they know hip hop from when it was at its best and then drop a name like 50 cent......
dzire08 1 year ago
@dzire08 I actually like some of 50's early songs and Lloyd Banks is actually worth listening to, but if someone were to mention 50 cent reign as hip hop at it's best I would probably get an aggravated assault charge!!!!! Seriously that type of disrespect should be dealt with and when you encounter it take your time and school whomever it may they may just be ignorant, but most are just stupid!! I know I shouldn't but i get pissed when that happens...
sliccmoufschalaa 1 year ago
@tylerstone1980 Ur right I grew up listening to the radio when you had to be dope to get on! I remember waiting with my finger on the pause button to start recording cats with lyrics like elzhi. Im really in love with real hip hop music and it literally hurts me to hear when sum ppl dont get it. Timbaland is ok at best. pherell and swizz are elementary!! They r so small in comparison to a guy like dilla, premier, madlib, or pete rock. I miss the real being out front.
sliccmoufschalaa 1 year ago
@tylerstone1980 I had a young producer tell me a few weeks ago that using samples isn't creative! Then when I critiqued his beats and listened to all those stock sounds and showed him how to chop samples and using creative means for percussion he opened up a bit, but still thinks going str8 triton on beats is more creative!!! This is the ignorance we deal with not to mention he thought nitty(from the young joc song) was one of the best in the game!!! SAD TRULY SAD!
