Babyface and LA Reid vs Teddy Riley vs Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis... who made the best music?

[Kool]

Out of these old school music producers... who do you think made the best music?

Babyface and LA Reid songs...

Teddy Riley songs...

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis songs...

 

[I love Latina women]

damn, now this is what i call a challenge fo real

 

[Colicat]

5 star thread...

I came in here knowing I was voting for Babyface and LA....

Then I scrolled and remembered how many hits Teddy had as well... Creating his own lane of music...

This is tough breh








I still voted Baby... His songwriting is the tie breaker

 

[I AM WE ARE]

babyface hands down music is timeless

 

[Craig Mack]

LAFACE
Their run from '88-'94 was straight piff


Too bad LA tried to force that gay shyt onto Face & drove him away ​

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Face as a writer, Jam & Lewis overall. Teddy had a nice lil run but not the longevity

 

[King Poetic]

Face and reid not even close

 

[Ol’Otis]

LaFace

 

[Kool]

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis all day.

 

[JerseyBoy23]

Got to give it to Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. You put their music on during a cookout and guaranteed, people of all ages will get out of their seats

 

[Sithlord Piff]

The Janet catalog alone give Jimmy and Terry the win.

 

[Dr. Acula]

Well they made different types of music somewhat.

Jimmy and Terry for the bumping RnB/Pop songs
Babyface, mainly, and La reid for the Slow jams. Not counting the folks they signed but just those they actually produced for.

Can't compare them I think.

As far as who is more talented musician overall out of all four, Babyface no question. Dude was really talented.

 

[Kool]

Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis talk about making the song "Tender Love".

 

[Dr. Acula]

Damn. What is this song sampling or what song sampled it? It sounds familiar but I can't put my finger on it.

Someone help me out. Its bugging me. I'm pretty sure its a popular song.

Well... Jam and Lewis wrote and produced the song... it's a original song from them.

I don't think anybody has sampled "Human" and tried rap over the beat yet.

Maybe you just remember the song from that car insurance commercial from a couple of years ago.



The song "Human" was dope when it came out back in the 80's and is still a r&b banger today.... I could listen to that song a million more times and still wouldn't be tired of it.

shyt... "Human" might be my favorite song out of all the songs posted in my original post for the thread.
