I respect most lists of top producers...I know they're real tough to make.

But why are the neptunes so high on that list? :smh:

Just blaze, havoc and the alchemist all are top ten point blank!!!!
This list is debatable the whole way through, and it comes down to opinion.

yeah i really think its just not my stylo
because after hearing Hold U Down i went out and bought 1st Infantry
and i thought it was garbage.
the only tracks i listen to are the intro and Hold U Down.

Not a terrible list...it has most of the names on there right. HOWEVER..........

J Dilla should be top 5 no doubt.

WHERE IS LEGENDARY TRAXSTER? GOD DAMN HE'S UNDERRATED!!!

I'd like to see No I.D. on there. Dude only produced the greatest hip-hop album of all-time in addition to several other hits for popular artists. Even a 50 spot works for me...

EDIT:

I also believe Thes One should be on there. He has produced some of the smoothest, most amazing beats you'll ever hear. Been doing it for a long time too.

Also, this dude will be up there some day:

He is a rapper/producer (much better producer though in my opinion) from Detroit. he is sick.
