I went with Buckwild, personal choice.

I think Prince Paul gets overrated because on his signature albums (De La) Dave and especially Pos did a great deal of the production. I guess he's more of a producer in the traditional sense, but when I think of hip hop producers, I think of beat makers.

Sure looks like Pos is the lead producer to me.

I have no doubt that Paul contributions (creatively and conceptually) to the group are too numerous to list, but as far as the actual music, they do most of it themselves.

Cause minus all the postmortem jocksmanship I really think he was an amazing motherfucker on production

Pretty much why I voted for him. The muthafuckas that now tag along and jock his shit hard like when Pac died shouldn't steer from the fact that Dilla was a dope-ass producer.

Balzac · Post by **Balzac** » Tue Sep 21, 2010 4:10 pm

so prince paul only mixed the shit???

wtf....

i guess his later work is still great, but i always credited the dela albums as his flagship production perfection.

I usually don't get the opportunity to call someone else a bork, so, I'm taking advantage.
