Hey, I'm with you guys. I think what Puffy does is amazing. You got to admit that it's kind of funny that all of us are making our little beat videos, and diging though records all day while this guy is so far removed from all that.

Gotta give it to diddy. He may not have obvious talent with instrumentation such as Pharell from the neptunes or sample skills like kanye west, but he knows how to make a hit record. CANT KNOCK HIM.

something that is lost nowadays. People think they bang out a track on the MPC, send it to an artist and they've "produced" something. lol. You aint nothing more than a programmer or arranger if thats all you did.

YES! I totally agree. Making a beat, and making a Hit Song are two completely different accomplishments. A Hit Song is something far more difficult to make than simply a beat. Does anyone agree that the terms "Beatmaker" and "Producer" are used incorrectly in todays music scene?

Co-Sign, ppl often misconstrue the two so grossly that I don't bother to explain the difference.

You really mean to tell me that's the first time you heard that shit?!!? damn....

At least he produced the vocals... giving snoop directions on how to rap... thats where a lot of beatmakers don't even go, they just deliver the beat and say go rhyme something on it... it should be the whole package if you want to call yourself a producer... you got to shape the whole product..
