In your opinion who are the Top 5 Producers out right now???

[KINGEC]

Beatmakers are producers. There are more similarities between the two than differences. You don't hear people crowning Diddy the hottest producer of the 90's.

They not really the same bruh...

 

[rip.dilla]

Nigga included Justin and Premo as "beatmakers"

LOL

 

[Kushington]

Beatmaker and producer are the same thing

All beatmakers are producers, but not all producers(diddy, etc) are beatmakers

 

[KingJamal]

A producer is a person who is there throughout the entire song making process

The beatmaker just gives the artist the beat and has no other input

 

[Cabana_Da_Don]

No alchemist....Fuck yo list nigga.

 

[rip.dilla]

I wonder how a "beatmaker" would survive over 20 years in the game and still remain relevant

Yeah. I didnt feel like going into it but youre right

But the beatmaker lays the foundation for the record. Another TYPE of producer determines the rest of the record(recording artists, concept, etc)

Most beatmakers with longevity work with a group of other beatmakers, producers and instrument musicians

But im sure you meant the guy with fruityloops just randomly tapping on keys and looping it

^This.

Beatmaker: Makes the beat. nothing more.

Producer: Sees/hears the song as a whole/Responsible for the final product.

I'm actually referring to DJ Premier. Most dudes on here always refer him as a "beatmaker". I don't get that shit really.

Dude has produced whole albums for rappers

 

[nyst8ofmin]

listen...... a beat maker is not a producer.

if u downloaded fruity loops last year, you are a beat maker, if ur lucky.

if you work with artists and have some sort of creative input and make the beat and then sequence the beat around the artist, your a producer. if your make beats and then have a band come up to reinterpret the beat and replay it live, you are a producer.

if you press buttons on your qwerty keyboard on FL or ableton, your not a producer. and just because you take the stock sounds from reason or FL and sequence them does not make you a beat maker. more like a shitty sound programmer......

big fucking differences....... lol

most self proclaimed producers i know cant even keep count with the time signature. lol.

producers understand music theory and how it applies to the music.

And premier could still flip and loop a sample, throw some drums on it and sell it to christina aquilera or some shit, give her a vision for the record and get production credit

Some beatmakers are producers, but niggas cant say a producer like diddy knows anything about the musical side, aside from the direction he wants the record to go

puff daddy doesnt know how to make beats, thats not his lane

If he will proudly proclaim "dont worry if i write rhymes, i write checks", he doesnt care about the music, he has motives besides good music, if he cared about good music he wouldnt have such a horrible track record with his artists, in 3 years something bad will happen to french montana and mgk because diddy will be finished with them, theyve served their purpose and its on to the next act

People like kanye, pharell, rza...make beats because they actually like to do it

 

[StillFaggyAF]

puffy is a producer....

 

[yeah i rap so don't]

The ignorance of some posters is astonishing. To me fair, we really do not know how many ghost producers big named producers use. I just found out Swizz Beats has a ton of ghost producers he uses.

I didn't read it, the homie had signed a deal under a group. They ghost produce for Swizz. He knows Jadakiss too and I almost kicked him off the phone for that violation. Have not really spoken to him in years.
