Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!
The best things in life are free, but hopping on Hov's press conference stage uninvited is gon cost cha. Whatcha did was wrong! ⎯B.Dot
Earlier this week, Billboard complied a list of the decade’s best producers. Coming in at numero uno are Pharrell & Co. Better luck in the next 10 years, Just Blaze and Dr. Dre.
complete cosign. neptunes are my favourite production team :).
but who the FUCK is dr luke lmao.
Damn no Justin Smith (Just Blaze for all u slow folk)?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? WOWWWWWW! He made some of the biggest hits to come outta the Roc La Familia, especially in the early 2000′s: Song Cry, Girls, Girls, Girls, What We Do, Touch The Sky, P.S.A., Ignant Shit, etc. I could go on and on and on and they didn’t put Just Bleezy up there???? Excuse my ignorance, but who tha fuck is Dr. Luke???? He must be one of those pop artist producers that made all the Disney kids’ songs. Shit they all sound the fuckin’ same anyway…WACK!…smfh…
i think lil jon should not be on this list
HMMM interesting …. WHERE THE FUCK IS DR.DRE ;||
Where the hell is Dre. He has been more consistant this decade than most people on this list. DR LUKE this is the same guy who produced Flo Rida’s bullshit “Right Round” song. I agree with The Neptunes, Scott Storch, Kanye West, Lil’ Jon and Timberland choices though but Dre has had his hands involved in some of the most commercially successful and most critically acclaimed albums this decade.
@ ac@pella (dope name btw): just blaze is huge in hip-hop. he produced some of the illest songs in our history. imo, he is a top 4 producer in terms of quality active in this decade.
but this list is presumably based on album sales and single sales. thats just the nature of the list; its not a list based on the best producers of this decade…just the ones involved with the highest selling projects.
Where the fuck is Dr. Dre…that alone makes the list BULLSHIT!!
Dr Dre is the best producer ever in my books
WOW no Dr. Dre…HAHAHAHAHAHAHA…yall are nuts. If anybody is making a fuss for anybody other than Dre. you’re stupid. This dude basically cosigned and produced for the top selling artist of the decade(Eminem) and has dropped a complete classic game changing album this decade. Yall are crazy!!!!
Dre put Eminem and 50 on the map….and he’s not on the list?
whatever…………
Bill Boards all bout sales.. they named Eminem best Artist this decade in terms of sales right? Dre Executive produced all his cds… sounds like they fuckd dre in the ass.
and dres cd came out in 1999 didn’t it?
Those producers are worldwide…they don’t just produce for one label or one artist…pretty much everyone in the industry and diff genres f*ck with those top 10…kudos to the Neptunes…very very well deserved!
df is Dr Luke… & lol JD ? his beats are corny..
fuck this list….is there any album in the last 5 years that is produce by dem neptunes that sold multi platinum ? i don’t think so….dem neptunes produce the clipse latest album and shit barely sold 20k………so fuck this list and whoever made it.
ok so i googled Dr Luke.. he deserves the spot lmao
/facepalm
People need to kill all this “Where is Dr. Dre” talk, he didn’t put out nearly as much music as anybody else on that list. Dre is a legend but unless he ups his out put he’s gonna get surpassed by his competitors.
^ if anything Dre is better than JD.. i think darkchild or jim jonsin deserve to be on the list
I agree with most of the list… Just Blaze and Dre should been on… JD should not… and I’m actually wondering where Cool N Dre, and JR Rodom (spelling?) are. Even if it’s about money, the Runners had huge hits even tho they all sound the same now.
JD is very underrated as a producer. Darkchild and Jim Jonsin are too.
I think this list goes buy how many hits they produced the Neptune made alot of top 10 hits
Also, Timbo’s apprentice, Danger, almost single handedly made Britney Spear’s comeback… U can’t front on her production. I’ll bet u see him on next decade’s list.
FYI Dr. Luke produced Miley Cyrus. ‘Nuff said. And Billboard has nothing to do with who is “better than” who, or quality at all for that matter. It’s all about sales so everyone bitching about “where is (my personal favorite produce)” is wasting their breath.
The Megatron Don must have pissed somebody off at Billboard. Because there is no way in hell you can leave JB out of the top ten.
Dr. Dre not only did all of em’s cd’s, produced 50′s biggest hit, but he also had alot of non hip hop hits too. The two gwen stefani and eve track? Mary J. Blige’s best known song family affair? I guess they used statistics but that confuses me too as eminem sold more than anybody…
Keep in mind there is a difference between producers and beat makers.
WTF, Producers of the decade and there’s no Dr Dre?
Where is J.R. Rothem? He made one of the best piano beats ever on Game’s LAX…
1 Dr Dre
This has to be based on #1 singles.
Dre is a legend and Just is my fave over most of these producers just for U Dont Know & PSA, but they don’t have the mainstream hits. Stargate, Bryan-Michael Cox, and JD are killing in R&B/Pop (Mariah, Usher, Beyonce, Rihanna, Ne-Yo, the list never ends…).
And Dr. Luke…had never heard of him, but like mmkayy said, Google him. I guarantee that you don’t f with any of his music, but Billboard would…Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, KELLY CLARKSON (couldn’t resist)
Dr. Dre. has not been heavily evolved this decade, he did put people on but as a producer has not been relevant commercially since 04. All of them up there worked with pop this decade.
I need a writers job here or something
And Dr. Luke…had never heard of him, but like mmkayy said, Google him. I guarantee that you don’t f with any of his music, but Billboard would…Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, KELLY CLARKSON (couldn’t resist)

lol!
dr dre added
dr luke switched
for the hiphop/rap/rnb decade
dr luke much props deserve just he don’t produce hiphop does not mean he should not be on the list
Just blaze & Dre deserve to be up there…. I mean, probably JB more than Dre because Dre only really produces for his artists, not a whole lot of people… JB is everywhere
I dont like most of these producers anyway……I’m kinda glad dre aint on that list
^^^ dont get me wrong with that post, I think Dre is THE BEST hip hop producer of our time. But he only works with his artists, so his material is limited compared to those of say the neptunes or just blaze, etc
In JD’s defense all i have to say is: Usher’s “Confessions” and Mariah Carey’s “Emancipation of Mimi” did i mention he produced and wrote “U Got It Bad”?
in the club and everything else he did for 50 cent except that fire ft young buck joint…. how we do… the set-up/OH! (obie trice)… jadakiss ft bilal… eve… mary j blige… jayz- the lost one and that other joint from the same albumm… the mothafuckin list goes on… he at least has 1 or 2 major hits… neptunes have 1 drumset… they just to be good… timbo is lost in that pop shit… lil jon had 5 great beats yeah, that one with amerie, the other one with petey pablo and the one with twista…
and just blazeee… come on dipset/ jayz albums that were classics(its been a long time since then)… come onnnnnnnn
wow, i thought dr. dre would be on for at least marshal mathers lp and eminem show, he also got that shit with game too. he has been missing last couple years (until relapse) but over 10 years, should be top 10.
Billboard Fail.
dr dre should be on the list but not number one. I think timbo should have been number one. He ruled on the rap, rnb and pop scene. No matter who it was, he gave them a hit
GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THAT Dr. DRE SHIT! Damn.. yes he put out 50 and Eminem.. BUT he didnt actually PRODUCE (made beats) for AS MANY HITS AS THESE GUYS ON THE LIST!! Yea he EXECUTIVE PRODUCED which means he overseen alot of those projects.
But he DID NOT actually MAKE THE BEATS (produce) a lot of hits THIS decade.
This is not best *EXECUTIVE PRODUCER* of the decade. Otherwise P.DIDDY would be on the list also.
This is also not the best “TALENT SCOUT* or *CEO* this decade
No Dre, No 9thwonder, No JustBlaze. FUCK THIS TOP 10 LIST ALONG WITH EVERY OTHER TOP 10 LIST PUT OUT BY ANY COMPANY THIS YEAR.
I agree with the list and it’s Hot 100 hits which means purely singles, has NOTHING to do with album sells. I love Dre and he one of the most influential people in my music but he doesn’t make music for the charts solely he is about making classic album cuts like Em’s “Kill You”, 50′s “Heat”, etc.
In the 90′s Babyface ran the game with David Foster just behind him. It’s about hits not albums or quality music then you can argue.
Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t – Jay-Z
BTW: The Neptunes did inspire to want to produce music.

See, this list is bullshit if Dre is not on it, for the simple fact that he’s DIRECTLY responsible for two of the most influential and top selling rap albums this decade: The Marshall Mathers LP and Get Rich or Die Trying. Furthermore, He’s had hits with the major pop stars as well, including Gwen Stefani, Mary J. Blige and all of them. And then, to have fucking Scott Storch on here, who wouldn’t even have fucking known how to produce hit records if he hadn’t gone to the Aftermath School of Music, is salt on the wound. Fuck outta here. I’m so mad right now.
I’m back…I can understand that Dre’s place is arguable, but the latter half of this decade belongs to Timbo. From “Promiscuous” on, dude RAN the radio…real talk.
what about r.less? or dre? or justice leauge? what the
