    When a post about people posting makes your attempt at a discussion about hip hop music flop

    Time for the FS stimulus package

    I'm a massive fan of his, dude seemingly has an endless range--only thing I can ever pick up from his production cues is he loves the synthesized drum and has some interesting layers that give it this chunky kind of sound if that makes sense...I place him in that realm of excellent producers like Boi1da and like Hit-Boy that made a ton of fantastic songs but I wouldn't say they redefined the genre.

    A couple of personal favorites that haven't already been posted:

    Well, I have asked about Metro Boomin' beats, I gotta say I liked the beats you have shared a lot more. Money Trees is prob better than any Metro beat anyway. ( All of his stuff is trap and they are all sound alike).

    There are times where I dont even notice its a DJ Dahi beat (Paramedic for example) he is so versatile

    And imo just because he didnt exactly change the genre doesnt mean he isnt in the conversation for the best producer of the 2010s. All of his work is amazing and the way he can produce any type of beat is incredible. I literally cant think of a single beat hes made that I dont like

    Also, I dont think Id be able to post a full list of all of his amazing production, unfortunatly (in an amazing way)

    As you mentioned Compton, he also produced All In a Days Work and Deep Water with Dre. Just couldnt find a youtube link.

    I disagree with you on Metro, as I love him, vut DJ Dahi is way underappreciated imo

    Also, heres one of my favorite metro beats I think you may like:

    Well, that makes 2 different good beats from Metro Boomin' for me. It wasn't one of the generic trap beats of his. I don't say Metro Boomin is wack or anything btw, I'm just sayin he is not that special from what I have heard so far from him.
