N.E.R.D On Their Favorite Producers (Video)

Kanye, DJ Khalil, DJ Premier, Q-Tip and Swizz Beatz get the nods. Here’s a question I propose to the visitors: if you were the executive producer to, say, Jay-Z and Sean Price’s respective albums, which four producers from that list would producer which album? And go…

  1. I Cant belive Pharrell did not praise J-Dilla who he has called the best producer of all time!!!!!!

  2. So He did shout out J-Dilla what the fuck 2dopeboyz say who they shouted out

  3. he mentioned j dilla i guess you didn’t actually watch the video

  4. PREEEEM and SEAN P FTW!!!!

  5. Swizz Beatz sucks so bad. And his rap/adlibs in songs are always so annoying

  6. J-Dilla
    & Madlib
    & 9TH Wonder
    & Apollo Brown

  7. A great artist should be able to display his skills on any producers’ beat. Which is why Jay-Z is so successful. I’ll just disregard that list and name Top 5 producers for any rap LP.

    Premo, Kanye, Alchemist, Neptunes, JUSTICE league – - that LP should go gold at the least. Throw Statik Selektah in there somewhere too

  8. for hov i would say kanye, dj khalil, swizzy, and preemo

  9. Kanye, Just Blaze, Swizz, and Khalil for Sean’s album and J Dilla, Premier, Q-Tip, and 9th for Hov’s album

  10. Jay Z – executive prod by Kanye
    Bishop Lamont – executive prod by DJ Khalil
    Saigon – executive prod by Just Blaze
    Nas – executive prod by DJ Premier

  11. Khalil is such a beast. Video only works in the US. smh.

  12. Kanye, Just Blaze, Khalil, Premo for Jay Z.
    Pretty much those 4 producers are killer

  13. Q-Tip & Khalil for Hov
    Swizzy & Ye’ for Kimbo Price

  14. Dilla, Premier, Kanye, & 9th Wonder

  15. KANYE, JUSTICE League, STREET RADIO, THA BIZNESS

  16. Dilla….Kanye….Rick Rubin…..Neptunes…..9th Wonder……Pete Rock…..DJ Jazzy Jeff…..n plenty others

  17. kanye, just blaze, (YAAAAAAA) ski beatz, no I.D.

  18. Madlib, Alchemist, DJ Premier, Marco Polo

  20. Swizz Beats? Dude makes some of the most annoying productions ever?

    Sean P:
    Statik Selektah, who has KILLED it in 2010. Dude is everywhere.
    MADLIB
    Kanye, as long as he stays off the mic.
    RZA
    DJ Premier
    Alchemist
    9th Wonder
    Ski Beatz

    Fuck Jay-Z

  21. Jay-Z – PREMIER ONLY.

    You know a list is f-ed ud when they don’t mention RZA and Pete Rock, while not listing Marley Marl, Large Pro, or Dr. Dre.

    Just Blaze has some nice beats from time to time, so as Kanye West but they are not in my top 15.

    As for a Nas album Preem of course, Q-Tip, and Dilla. If you want to stick by N.E.R.D.’s corny list.

  22. Swizz Beats? Dude makes some of the most annoying productions ever.

    (Statement, not a question.)

  23. Sean Price needs some Marley Marl, Pete Rock, RZA, and Premo. Stricly Boom Bap production. Alchemist wouldn’t be bad with him either.

  24. Nas – exile
    jay-z – kanye
    J.cole -dj premier

  25. A Sean P album produced solely by Khalil would be ill.

  26. Right now:

    Just Blaze
    Kanye
    Alchemist
    Madlib
    Khalil
    9th Wonder
    Kanye
    Black Milk
    Nottz
    Premier
    Jake One
    Pete Rock

  27. big respect for him shoutin out Dilla

  28. Jake One, Black Milk, Madlib and Fizzy Womack for Sean P.

  29. i like Kanye but on the production tip he kinda lost his spark. his beats on blueprint 3 were wack and thats prob why hes workin wit other producers for his new album

    same wit RZA, in the 90s he was a beast but now not so much

  30. For Sean P. 9th wonder, Khrysis, Black Milk, Mr. Porter, Illmind, Statik Selektah, 6th sense, J Dilla and The Beatminerz oh yeah Cyrus Tha Great

    For Jay Dr.Dre, Kanye West, Just Blaze, DJ Khalil, NoId, Justice League, The Incredibles, Best Kept Secret, and The Neptunes

  31. Justice L.E.A.G.U.E., DJ Khalil, Kanye West, Seven, Jim Jonsin.

    Those are my top 5 producers right now.

  32. swizz beats???? for real???

    anyone who thinks swizz is nice should DIE

  33. The people who think swizz beatz is still relevant are the same people who probably think DMX is still relevant.

  34. sean p- 9th, preemo, alchemist, marco polo

    Jay-just blzae, ye, jake one and 9th

  35. All of the above & Quincy Jones

  36. can we get somebody to mention organized noize in here somewhere? im just sayin…

  37. agree with dick b. primo only for jay z

  38. @meh

    A lot of Swizz production.
    Although, those were his best years imo.
    His features on songs nowadays drive me up a fucking wall.

  39. BLACK MILK- ish sons everything
