    no rza? we can forget about everything dude did except for "cuban linx" and he would still be top 5 (imo)

    and as far as dilla, he was realy starting to move to his next stage which was beautifully chopping the shit out of ill soul joints.the way he manipulated the marvin sample on the common album was so ill.you cant even be mad at him for using "obvious" stuff cause he realy made that shit his own.

    Greatest?.......................get the fuck outta here.

    There is no greatest, just before y'all start up w/ this shit.

    There is no best.

    I agree. There are too many flavors to call one the best.

    Dilla is in my top list though.

    Yeah. So did Larry Smith and the bomb Squad. But their best best tracks are waaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy better than anything Jay Dee ever did.

    And at least I can hope that Spinna come back hard one day

    I'm puttin a stop to this shit right now. Just because he passed away doesn't mean he gets automatic canonization. I'm sorry, y'all better check the history books before u let your emotions cloud your critical eye. Fuck that, Im not havin it.

    I know 6 or 7 good tracks made by Jay Dee and 159 bad tracks.
    I only know one song Mao did, but it's better than "Runnin" or "i Don't Know".

    Some people's "opinions" are simply insupportable. And this thread is ridiculous.

    I like all these better than most stuff Jay Dee did.

  • Dilla & Spinna killed at any point in their careers.


  • I'll put Large Professor over Jay Dee.

    You can't compare dudes from completely different eras with Jay Dee. He was one of the greatest of his era 96-06. Dude did a variety of styles which many producers went on to bite. You guys are fucked up for talking shit about dude when he just died. Let people celebrate his life and career, this type of shit is some real genuine hate.

    Of course you think DJ Doc and all these random muthafuckas who did their thing before Dilla were better, that's your era of rap. A lot of you fucks think anything from 87-94 was the best. It might be but damn. I don't critique south music because I don't listen to it for the most part. Speak on shit you know about. A dude on here once tried to literally tell me Studio fucking Ton was a better producer than Jay Dee!!! Madness.

    :

  • "opinions are insupportable"
    "history books"
    "not having it"

    c'mon, who really appointed y'all to regulate?

    dont be insensitive. there are people who have been really affected. dont shit on them. you'd be sounding "mad "
