Producers that want to be singers!

what do you think of people like P Diddy and Pharell that are always in the videos posing? I know that they rap and sing as well but it's kind of strange.

IMHO, I think since Neptunes are songwriters, and they give entire songs to people, I would expect to at some point hear their vocals because it's a collaboration.

Diddy.. he gets people to write and produce, so to me he is just promoting himself.

I see a difference.

Poke & Tone... last I heard they took Beatnuts "Off The Books" and made "Jenny From The Block". L.E.S. from TrackMasters still produces album tracks for Nas, doesn't he? That's so 2 years ago though, so I'm not sure.

I thought his style was played out. Tryna eat off Timbaland's double-beat style, with that pitched-up snare.
