    Imagine Young Thug over Pete Rock or something. That fits your criteria and yet it would be unquestionably awful. I don't think Metro is incapable of making interesting beats. I just think a lot of producers, even guys like DJ Premier, find a formula and start abusing the h--- out of it.

    Not to forget that hip-hop production in most instances is kind of defined by the repetitiveness and rigid structure. It's the baseline for the rapper to embellish over. Hard to be angry at the other three guys in the jazz quartet for getting a bit predictable so the sax solo guy has a foundation to build on. At least that's the mind set that I approach it with.

    If you want off the wall experimentation, that's where instrumental work that doesn't have to be considerate of the rapper comes in. Danny Brown even took that type of stuff and still managed to rap over it on his latest album. That album was definitely trap flavored.
