Rapper with the best ear for beats?

Postby OMEGA » Jul 24th, '11, 07:50

Excluding rappers that produce for themselves (Dre, Kanye), what are the rappers that have the best ear for beat / get the best production constantly.

I'm gonna go with Game for this one. Except for LAX, almost every Game song I hear has banging production. He has an awesome ear for beats, and it's a good thing that his strong voice, flow, and mic presence go so well with the production.

Other examples?

Right now I'd say Finale from Detroit, getting Oddisee, Flying Lotus, J Dilla, Apollo Brown, Nottz, Black Milk and Kev Brown. But all-time I'd say either Nas or J-Live.

I could've loved Cheers if it were all beats and no lyrics.


Cheers was an example of an average rapper with good backing.

Eminem definitely ghost wrote Got Some Teeth.


what makes you think he did that?

Substantial for his constant work with Nujabes and Japanese sounding producers, usually referred to as the black adopted son of Japan. I usully love lush melodic production and he goes well with Nujabes beats.

J Live had some really great producers in his first album.

It's funny they both got fucked by record labels.
