 Come on orgers, back in the 90's, some of you couldn't stop thinking that he was one of the best of his generation beside Dr. Dre.
Interesting. I've NEVER thought that.....and still don't. of course u had to wander in here to defend Dre's title 
I never felt that way either but damned if I wasn't up on all those songs Tony posted plus the TLC material. | |

OH PLEASE, stop reaching, Tony nobody said that,,,,but the mofo's well has ran dry and he acts like he's THEE Quincy Jones disiple/heir when 99.9% of his stuff since 2000 is more of the same generic shit that ANY "flavor of the month" can dabble on.
P.S. I haven't forgotton about you, orgnote-wise. Give me a couple of minutes. Tawk. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

P.S. I haven't forgotton about you, orgnote-wise. Give me a couple of minutes. I think it was around the time JD produced the debut albums of Bow Wow & Jagged Edge that his weaknesses were showing. Bow Wow is still around today more like a rookie actor than a rap artist, while Jagged Edge hasn't been seen OR heard from again since their one-hit wonder moment. Even today, listen to the tracks JD produced for Mariah sounds a lot like something he did with Xscape in the 1990's. | |

I think it's because Mariah and JD are always trying to recapture their 1995 production "Always Be My Baby" and the So So Def Remix, which was the same sorta thing he was doing for Xscape. Manuel Seal on the keys, and JD has 808 kit loaded on the same MPC he's been using since the Kris Kross days. When I heard Mariah resinging "Here We Go" by Run-DMC over that programmed 808 and synth piano... I knew JD was in the house | |
