J Dilla is the most overrated hiphop artist

The hype is ridic. Hes basically just consistently good. Never made a real banger track, never made one of those completely unforgettable beats like Lose Yourself, Jesus Walks, Gin n Juice, etc. Dude isnt even in the top 25 producers. Shit, I even prefer new guys like 40 and Illangelo.

I honestly don't feel like he's overrated at all, though. Even has some beats that are better than some of Dre's and Ye's.

Bet you cant name 25 songs he produced. People just like him because of his legend status, like Beastie Boys or Eazy E. In actuality hes just good.

Seriously, hes never produced a smash song. Not in terms of sales, but nothing he produced is just INSANE.

Actually Derdy's a big fan of Dilla. I'm pretty sure he could easily name 25 songs by him.

J Dilla is very influential doe, the reason we have alot of beatmakers out!
I shouldn't have to name 25 songs because you should go dig for your own Donuts :wave:
of course people are gonna like Dilla for his legendary status.
but tbh chances are he'll be the most remembered with his beattapes being listened to forever :'(

let him rest in beats & you shut your filthy whore mouth [-X

Im just saying he doesnt have even 10 memorable songs. Ye, Dre, Just Blaze, Pharrell, they all have more memorable material.

I respect Dilla, but he was just consistently good. He never made jaw dropping shit

Most overrated?? Are you brain dead? Who calls J Dilla the greatest alive? Not many. How many people call lil Wayne the best alive? More than one person which is an issue.

Just because you don't like J Dilla doesn't mean hes overrated. Jesus fucking Christ kids nowadays

^ Listen to that flip of the Eleanor Rigby sample

^ One of the best beats EVER

Dilla had so many styles, hell he was fucking with synths at a time when Kanye was still using chipmunk vocal samples, he was WAY ahead of the game before he passed.

Making an album like Donuts on his death bed? He's easily in the top 10 hip hop producers of all time, the only guy I rate ahead of him would be RZA, and that's at a push

I like 40, but better than Dilla? 40 wouldn't even agree with that

THE best drum programmer in hip hop, he's got some of the most complex, lush beats you'll hear, beat for beat he's a match for any producer you can name, there's a reason Pharrell rates him as the best producer ever
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified
