I think Tips impact on NY's sound was heavier than RZA's

This here. That's facts.

Tip is really NY's GOAT on the beats.

But he's never been concerned with getting credited for all the classics he's cooked up. So people overlook him way too much. But truthfully, nobody is f*cking with Tip's catalogue. Maybe only Dre and Primo have as many classics.

From the moment the Low End Theory dropped suddenly every East Coast producer from like 1992-94 was copying his style in some way. Jazz sample, loud drums, random horns and saxophones lmao. And then beyond that in the grimy era, the influence remained; Beatminers and Mobb Deep made a whole run out of the jazz sample + low pass filter + hard drums style.

And then beyond that, the whole soundscape of the conscious rap wave comes from him. J Dilla's style was basically a rawer, sparser version of his style, for example

*Mantronix is on the list but I'd like to see someone play six degrees of production techniques and let people know how ridiculously influential this man has been in electronic music production in all genres. I can make a good case for his influence being pivotal for what ultimately became trap,classic house, freestyle, NO bounce, Miami bass ,euro EDM and the likes. So many stylistic innovations came from him it's insane.The producers that studied him know how much of an inspiration he was to shaping the first major sonic departure from the bare bones drum machine sound to the sample heavy sound that came after him,he was bridge between those era's and then went on to do R&B with great success.

























He mixed this classic (and helped out on production but Alex Fisher has full credit

LMAO

And to sell you the beat he's gon' film himself breaking his neck and wave his hands to it like that's the illest beat we ever heard. That's basically how he won the just blaze versuz, by being animated and because he had great guest rappers on the track but the actual production was trash
