:jbhmm: This made me wonder....is Madlib the most copied producer of the past decade? I kinda think maybe so.

Premier, RZA, and Dre were all copied heavily. But since 2010 there are a lot of dudes (good and bad) making Madlib-type beats.

It's a topic for another thread but you just got me wondering.

This is a great point. Madlib is a huge part of 2000s for many with Madvilliany and his beat tapes were all over the net so many of the internet heads grew up with him. Even more, him and Dilla birthed the beat scene, Madlib especially contributed to the LA Beat Scene which impacted many underground internet kids. There is even a huge 'lo-fi' movement that is going on with young kids basically making dilla/madlib beats without really knowing where this influence came from. xxxtentacion is an example of this influence too

Yep, there's tons of these beattapes on soundcloud and even more so on bandcamp.

Dilla is one too. Electronic producers tend to bite him a lot

Syrupy lyrics over that fine china :blessed:

For nikkas sayin its too short idk what yall listenin to, every line is a complete thought by itself, he aint wastin 4-8 bars to get a thought across, you gotta have a sharp mind to be concise like that :wow:

A 2 min track from earl got more substance in it than 4-5 minutes from your average rapper

Alot of people who spit over madlib soundin beats write like that, he lowkey mad that form of rap due to his production style
