In all seriousness, at what point do we start saying Alchemist is the greatest producer ever?

Madlib maybe the most underrated, because he has no signature go-to classic song like RZA, Dre,

Premo, Dilla, ALC, Just Blaze, etc. But, if you take the time out and listen to his vast production: the man is a beatsmith:lawd:

That's just off the top of my head
seriously. I can name no less than 15 producers with a better discography and bangers than Alchemist. as far as hip hip is concerned and STRICTLY hip hop, Alchemist has more bangers than Timbo. Add in Largue Pro and Larry Smith too. Alchemist aint no goddamn top 3,5 , or 10 all time hip hop producers. haha. that's blasphemous.

lol...does DJ Premier? Madlib? Does Pete Rock? foh

We Gonna Make it is certified. So is Got it Twisted....NEXT!
huh???? Madvilllainy was a super underground album that crossed over to white folks without even trying. Had MF Doom hosting spots on the Cartoon Network with songs in the Boondocks. "troy" is worldly known. Down with the king was everywhere in 93. On NBA shows and was just on the finale of Raisin Kanan while Giving Run DMC their careers back. And Primo?? hahaha. You shouldn't have even made this post man. You're seriously comparing Primo's discography and hits to fukin Alchemist???

I don't know about that one and that's no diss to ALC, but just on the strength of the Jay Z songs alone, we're talking:

Big Pimpin- icon status

Come Get Me

nikka What, nikka Who

It's Hot

Dirt Off Your Shoulders

are we talking popularity or songs that are dope? Now I'll give you Big pimping, nikka what, and dirt off your shoulder, but those other 2, I don't know. Dope tracks, but nothing that we ever called "classic" or groundbreaking. I can name 30 alchemist tracks better than those 2. Damn near Alchemist whole year of 2001 and 2002 are better than those 2 tracks.
