Man, take Gee's c0ck outta your mouth. The way the goofy guitar melody contrasts with Em's violent lyrics is clever as fuck. That was genius production on Dre's part.

A lot of times yeah, but c'mon, with bars like "when I say I'm ballin' I ain't talkin' bout a ball", people are right about it sucking.

everyone has some wack lines. i still say that line to this day as a joke and im 50's biggest stan.

Huh? What does Gee have to do with my post? You don't know that Dre knew the rhymes Eminem would spit over the beat. As far as I know, Dre made a garbage beat and Em came in and ripped it. Doesn't make the beat anymore special.

Lol @ "exposing" producers who sample. That's how rap instrumentals started. You're not exposing anything. What else are you going to expose? Rappers that use studios to record their music?

can you not read or just flat out stupid?....i didn't say exposing producers...I said exposing the samples producers used...get that dyxlesia thing checked out

I'll slap the shit outta whoever wrote this shit. My Name Is was comically terrible production wise. This shit was on the level of Laffy Taffy.

it's their very 1st track together, thats why it was shoehorned on the list

plus not like they have many classic and timeless Em and Dre collabs to really work with here

What's the difference? Exposing means revealing something that was hidden because someone didn't want it to be known. Since that's not th case here it's the wrong choice of words.

I'm saying you're following Gee's example and saying the track sucks just becasue of hatred for Eminem. And no I don't know what went on in the studio any more than you do, but does your version really sound like what it's like working with someone many claim to be a perfectionist and highly acclaimed producer?

SMH @ this nigga producing most of the beats on this list. Biased-ass nigga lol

smh, are you serious? this is a list of dr. dre's best beats
 
Last edited:
I dont think "Still D.R.E." should be higher for the simple fact that the main piece that made that beat was the piano and Dre didnt do that. Storch did that.

lol @ "In The Club" being in the top 5. Shouldn't even be in the top 50.

List was decent, but had way too many 50 Cent beats. "How We Do" was a terrible beat

"Nas Is Coming" wtf! I love Nas, but that beat had no business on the list.

lol, you really think producers play every aspect of their beats? dre's probably got several session musicians for every beat he does

The point is that's what made the beat legendary.

i guess, but a lot of legendary producers don't play the instruments on their tracks
