    right. I f--- with both of their catalogues. besides sound I just also edge Kanye over dre bc of Kanye actually playing a lot of the keys and midi stuff. I said it in the EM forum the other night, Kanye produces the way Eminem writes.

    but Kanye and dre are in the same category to me bc they work with writers but are known for production mostly (granted Kanye writes more than dre does and has a way deeper catalogue than dre in terms of solo albums)

    Both are top 3/5 almost everyone agrees here. Neither 'deserves' the win over the other imo because neither deserves to loose or the disrespect they get itt

    Dre ez
    His impact on music will always be untouched.
    He changed the west coast sound two f---in decades in a row and his beats are always on another level on every album he’s in.
    Kanye is a great producer but that’s it.

    Kanye is a bit of a fraud, so is Dre. But still, Dre >>>>>>>

    Both artists are perfectionist at making beats. This is really hard to choose and different styles. Dre has his own style and so doesn’t Kanye. Nobody has a cleaner sound then Dr. Dre in the mixing process even Em admits he doesn’t know all of Dre’s tricks to make it sound so good. Kanye is like very unique.

    Dres best beat wouldn’t crack Kanye’s top ten.

    Both dre and kanye in their later years did not do 100% of the actual beat making but a lot of their talent comes with putting together a complete product, more of a producer in the traditional sense. That's something they've always been good at is putting a bunch of moving parts together.

    Kanye was just as influential in the 2000s-early 2010s

    I personally prefer Dre. He's had a bigger impact imo and also helped launch a bunch of careers. Nothing can touch what he did in the late 80s and 90s. h--- even in the 2000s.

    But Kanye is phenomenal as well and more versatile.

    I forgot how much Dre was killin it even in the 2000s. Let's not forget "In Da Club" which really blew up 50 Cent's career.
