again.. this is only for people deep into music everyone says j-dilla is their favorite producer or they even say he is the greatest hip hop producer of all time man.. how many of these people would like j-dilla this much if he never died? not dissing dilla, i like his stuff but when he was alive he was way more obscure than he is now who can really say they were on his music before he died? common and the pharcyde, erykah and madlib.. but who else? a lot of these cats are so bandwagon.. and like i said this is not to diss dilla but look at someone like madlib for example u don't see people talking about "madlib is the best producer of all time" but aren't madlib and dilla pretty much in the same or similar stratosphere? this reminds me of the whole pac and big thing.. they were big before they died, but once they died it was like way more massive than it was when they were alive i don't really understand why this is i think j-dilla was dope and there's no doubt about that, but i like madd producers just as much as i liked him u know what i'm sayin? its like people appreciate your work a lot more once u pass away or something like (not to speak anything negative, but just for example) if brandon boyd died tomorrow then madd people would say he was their #1 favorite singer.. but where are those people right now? are they photoshopping amazing pictures of brandon boyd and making t-shirts of him today? ..probably not anyway.. i don't really have a favorite producer.. i however will say that i tend to think just blaze is amazing and doesn't exactly get enough credit the beats he did "show me what you got" and "american gangster" alone are so good that its bonkers personally i'd put this beat up against almost ANYTHING for comparison of quality and craftsmanship
again, i don't really have a favorite producer, but if i HAD to choose, i'd perhaps lean toward just blaze.. 99.9% of other people however would say j-dilla without even thinking.. i understand he was amazing and i love his work but there are other dope cats out as well if he's ur favorite then cool.. if pac or big r ur favorites then cool.. but please lets not just be bandwagon

I think when a person dies their work is better examined bcuz it's in short supply rather than being taken for granted
