People don't realize how hard producing music really is until you try it, it's so hard making things sound professional. It takes forever to edit your stuff. It's real fun wants you accomplished a beat, But you got to work your ass off.

WHo best how worst? We dotn care... They make creative music.. that is rare today..

[arseface2000]

I can see the use this thing has as a live tool... but in the studio it seems pretty redundant. and overpriced, too.

Wow he wears big pants haha

[TimichCop]

@Francosteiner man timbo and dj premier it's two different things, how you can compare them, dj premier it's more like new york oldschool ghetto beats and timbo it's more dancing style.

[mpchead621]

@Nightclipse yeah.. uhh.. some of the most amazing producers use MPC's too... so what?

[GirlnamedBobby]

guarantee timbaland uses mpc too.

[cortezforever]

@Nightclipse I hear what your saying but you don't have to wait for timbo to use ut for it to be good.

[DWINC]

that's your opinion Francosteiner. It's a matter of taste. Primo is good (ofcourse he is) but Primo can't do TImbo's shit, and Timbo can't do Primo's shit. Period.

[ValentineHipHop]

@Francosteiner i do agree that they are great producers, but for the most part they are all sample based, which requires alot less skill.

[blackbel4T]

Listen to "Forgot About Dre" thats the only argument I need.
