Most of the decade-end music tallies in this special online section represent aggregated sales or radio airplay (audience impressions or total plays) for each artist and title from the weekly charts on which they appeared from the start of the 2000 chart year (Dec. 4, 1999 charts) though the end of the 2009 chart year (Nov. 28, 2009 charts).

WTF No Swizz Beatz, i think he did alot this decade was always relevant..even with the movies he scored for..
HELL NO !!! Wheres Just Blaze and Dr. Dre? Just Blaze is that dude. RECOUNT !
RZA
DR DRE
If you think they haven’t been active or relevant in the past decade then you aren’t listening to hip hop, or you are a tourist.
Swizz beatz should be on the list and kanYe>Timbo. Dr.Dre should be also.
GET YOU BLING LIKE THE NEPTUNES SOUND *Piyum Piyum…piyum* LMAO!
AND RIGHTFULLY FUCKIN SO! Although I do agree, that Dre should’ve been on this list!
My personal favorites are 9th Wonder(NC) and DJ Premier.
RICK RUBIN
NO SWIZZ BEATS ? DR. DRE ? JUST BLAZE ? THEY PUT SCOTCH STORCH ON THE LIST BEFORE THEY PUT THESE GUYS ?
BWAHAHAHAHAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
KANYE BEHIND TIMBALAND ?? NO MADLIB ?? STUPID LIST
are yall retarded or something? is it so hard to read?
the list is based on “sales or radio airplay (audience impressions or total plays)”.. think about the stuff that timbo produced and how fckin much justin/nelly furtado sold etc..
^^^Yeah I know
“Most of the decade-end music tallies in this special online section represent aggregated sales or radio airplay (audience impressions or total plays) for each artist and title from the weekly charts on which they appeared from the start of the 2000 chart year (Dec. 4, 1999 charts) though the end of the 2009 chart year (Nov. 28, 2009 charts)”
^^^Yeah I just realized…
Neptunes deserves to be first.
Dre too, but he aint work with anyone but G-Unit, Shady, & some lite work for Snoop & Jay.
based on favourites, id put 9th Wonder, Kanye & Just Blaze up there.
@ Curiousone; If its based on sales, DRE SHOULD BE UP THERE!!!!!
Dre put two of the biggest rappers on the map : Eminem & 50 cent
no dr dre or just blaze and timbaland b4 kanye west!?!?!?! unbeilavable
PEOPLE GROW UP! THEY DIDNT SAY PRODUCERS FOR RAP. WHY SOME CATS KEEP RELATING EVERYTHANG TO ONLY RAP I HAVE NO IDEA. PROPS TO KANYE FOR APPEARING ON ALL THE DECADES LISTS FOR ALBUMS, SONGS & PRODUCERS , KEEP DOING YA THING KANYE.
NO J DILLA?!?!?! Come on nowww!!
Congats 2 the neptunes. U can’t say dre & just blaze should b on there cause it’s based on radio play & things of that nature. If it was based in talent u might have an argument. But it isn’t.
YAW STUPID. IT SAYS PRODUCERS OF THE DECADE, WHICH MEANS ALL AROUND, NOT JUST HIP HOP, TIMB DID ALOTA CROSS OVER POP SHIT, JUSTIN’S ALBUM, FLO RIDA’S SHIT, MADONA, BRITNY, A WHOLE LOTTA WHITE PEOPLE MUSIC, TI’S POP TRACK, 50′S POP TRACK. THE TRACKS THAT DRE DID DIDNT GENERATE RADIO PLAY OR INTEREST. DRE IS A great PRODUCER BUT HIS SOUND AINT RADIO FRIENDLY THESE DAYS HE HASN’T BEEN DOING POP MUSIC. SWISS HAS BEEN HIT OR MISS AND MOST OF HIS HITS HAVE BEEN ON URBAN RADIO WITH EXCEPTION OF GET ME BODIED.
its based off COMMERCIAL radio play niggaz is what should be said to be honest…
i could agree with tht list! Neptunes should be #1..and even though Timbo is a cornball he prolly do deserve the #2 spot off tht pop ish..but i agree with alot of these cats on here..the “wishlist” woulda been something like 9th wonder, Jay Electronica, Dilla, Dr Dre, Swizz etc..but..unfotunately spins n sales do count so its like whatever g..holla
Nobody can fuck with the neptunes when they were at the top of their career.
This list is about radio plays, sales… so dr dre has nothing to do in this list, he’s not relevant since 2003-2004, that’s why detox may never come out. He made good album cuts but when it’s about #1 singles that’s another story.
and how can u say just blaze, he hasn’t do nothing major besides the hip hop world, same for swizz beatz.
I THINK THEY MADE THE LIST RECENT……. NOT THE WHOLE DECADE
its a good list but fuck the billboards
Jonathan Rothem
@BEY
All thats true but shockingly enough his first #1 Hot 100 hit was Family Affair for Mary J. which her first one too. Thats interesting!
Where the hell is “Darkchild” Rodney Jerkins?
GTFOH with Darkchild, the hottest song he produced in this decade was “Loose my breath” by Destiny’s Child and it was 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, he has also “What About Us” by Brandy which was 7, “When i Grow Up” by Pussycat Dools #9 and “Rock My World” by MJ #10.
That’s not enough to be on this list, u need more #1.
where is just blaze and the rza!!!!!??????? scott storch?? lil jon?? get tha fuc out of here. niggaz is trash.
@6 Yeah 9th Wonder is my hometown favorite ( Raleigh,NC). But Kanye West has my vote. Dating back to Beanie Siegel’s The Truth, up to his work on Blueprint 3.
I like my boyz Tim and Bob. They do mostly Bobby Valentino’s music and some other R&B Rap acts.
WHERE THE FUCK IS J DILLA YOU BLASPHEMOUS MOTHER@#$@#$@#!$
Look at all the hate hate hate. Shout out to the Neptunes that Grindin beat is a classic.
No dr.dre?cum on ppl
We are talikng about sales people not just skill. The people on this list have dominated the charts this decade. So yes, Dre and Dilla and Just Blaze are legends in this production thing, but the amount of HIT RECORDS does not compare to the Neptunes or Kanye or Timbo.
YOu GUY ARE DICKHEADS….
RZA dont get more than 5 placements out of the wu-tang camp
Swizz gets nor more than 10 placements every year. 30% become single 10% of that is a chart toper.
Dr. Dre mainly produce for Eminem, & Dr. Dre. Spinkled on a few other rapper’s albums. No more than 50 in the past 10 years…. sry Try AGAIN!
j Dilla – really???? You gotta be a fucking idoit.
Just Blaze only got “Hip Hop Classic” no chart toppers or heavy airplay material. he stays in his lane, and i respect that of him because if he really wanted to he could make that pop shit that sells.
Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins got jerked on this list. He has hits for daysssssss…. more than the Neprunes if you wanna add it up.
Tim & Bob – are you fucking kidding me? They make good track but they get around 8 placements a year. 7 our of 8 are single + None are chart toppers… OUCH!!
Timbaland is the BEST PRODUCER OF OUR LIFETIME in my opinion. He had the biggest influence on music period. No one had a bigger influence on how producers and artist approach tracks. Every new producer now-a-days has some type of timbo incorporated in their style…
-SoundDepth Productions
When it comes to hits i guess timbo kanye n neptunes are up there commercially but when we talking about the music just the music nobody is better than DR.DRE just recognize this shit already!!!!!!….. he as far as the quality and enjoyment he is def the KING OF THIS SHIT,,DETOX!
1 THE NEPTUNES
3 KANYE WEST
9 JERMAINE DUPRI
I agree with those. Idk who these are :
7 STARGATE
8 BRYAN-MICHAEL COX
10 DR. LUKE
I assume they are good.
All I know is the #1 slot is right on point. Period…….The rest tends to be suspect…
Kanye, The Dream, um..Just Blaze ain’t bad, Diddy!!!!!!!!!!!!! MASTERED A.G.
Shit, Shawn “The Carter Administration” Carter has had some nice bangers..
timbo over kanye? wheres just blaze and cool and dre?
I swear some of y’all niccas can’t read. Talkin bout RZA, MADLIB and Dilla….smh
It’s based on RADIO AIRPLAYS and SALES.
what was the last RZA hit?????
The list is on point. The neptunes dominated the 5 first years of the decade and then Timbo (and Danja) dominated the rest.
POLOWWW DAAAAA DOOOOOONNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
@ #38Guest
Stargate should be on there because from 05-08 they had #1 & Top 10 hits like
Irreplaceable/Beautiful Liar-Beyonce
(Ne-Yo)-So Sick, Sexy Love, Closer, Miss Independent, Because Of You
Tatoo-Jordan Sparks
With You-Chris Brown
(Rihanna)Unfaithful, Please Dont Stop The Music, Hate That I love You, Take A Bow
in my opinion timbo is the best. I’ve heard harder beats from others like 9th wonder, just blaze and the alchemiest. but timbo by far has the widest arrray of hits and timbo will have u boppin ya head to the beat 4real then fuck around and its a britney spears song or some shit u turn it off quick. but u still respect the beat no matter who the artist is. I mean timbo have niggas boppin to fuckin britney, justin, nelly furtado artist u would never listen yourself but timbo will get them in your radar
and smh@ rza get the fuck outta here wit that shit it aint 1992 fuck outta here
and imo dr.dre is the most overrated producer ever, he had a great start tho, his nwa,chronic, and 1st snoop albums are hard, everybeat he’s made sense has been garbage that’s just me tho. timbo the king but can’t argue wit neptunes either.
and props to kanye this nigga is like musical decathalon he’s in every list every category. true artist and proud that he’s from the hiphop side of things. embrace it ppl
Bryan Michael Cox is one of the most prolific R&B producers in the game. He actually beat THE BEATLES for being on the charts for the most time consecutively (I believe he had a record on the charts for 4-5 years straight.) He produced Confessions, Let’s Get Married, U Got It Bad, Be Without You, Don’t Forget About Us, etc. Stargate basically ran 2 years in the industry. They had mulitple hits with Ne-Yo (So Sick, Because Of You) They had hits with Rihanna, Beyonce, Chris Brown, etc.
Dr. Dre top 10 production hits this decade:
2000:
Eminem – The Real Slim Shady (#4)
2001:
Mary J Blige- Famly Affair (#1)
Eve – Let Me Blow Ya Mind (#2)
2003:
50 Cent – In Da Club (#1)
2004:
Eminem – Just Lose It (#6)
Gwen Stefani – Rich Girl (#7)
2005:
50 Cent & Mobb Deep – Outta Control Remix (#6)
The Game – How We Do (#4)
Eminem – Crack a Bottle (#1) & We Made You (#7)
Hell no… This list is horseshit. Wheres Just Blaze, Dr. Dre, Cool N Dre, etc. The second half of that list is just rediculous. WOW.
Primier, Statik Selektah, 9th Wonder, Scram Jones would be on my list, but all these lists are based on popularity and radio play.
HOW THE HELL DR. DRE IS NOT EVEN ON THE LIST?!?!!?!? GTFOH….This list dont mean nothin if it dont at least mention dre…..
Jay-Malls, it dont matter if he only produce for his camp of artists, his artists have went PLATINUM many times over this decade along with his own songs and albums..
1. STILL DRE
2. FORGOT ABOUT DRE
3. ALL of EMINEM SHIT
4. IN THE CLUB/get rich or die tryin/the massacre
Dont also forget that g-unit as solo artists have went platinum based of hits he produced.
list goes on and on. when DETOX drop, its a rap for da game.
i also though Hi-Tek got the sub as well, all shit he produce is fire
Are you shitting me?
1. DJ Premier
and go ahead and fill the rest up with your wack bullshit producers. I agree that Dr. Dre should definitely be on there. And I know he’s not even alive anymore, but J Dilla is still hotter than just about everyone on that list, as far as the quality of music he put out.
[www.soundclick.com]
kanye the best!!
where is Darkchild and TIm and bob SMH
lmao, Stargate is on this list? Scott Storch? Why is ‘Ye behind Timbo? This list sucks and Kanye deserves number 1. P and Hugo are cool and all, but call me when The Neptunes produce over 28 hit singles like Kanye. Or better yet, tell me when Timbo was last relevant?
Most of you guys are idiots. It clearly states at the top that the list is based on record sales and airplay…not the opinions of people who think they know wtf they are talking about. The only beef I have is Scott Storch…he bought Paris Hilton a $1M necklace and wouldn’t buy his loving/supportive mother a new carpet…what a douche. He should be disqualified from the list automatically.
no Dr. Dre or No I.D.???
Dark Child, Just Blaze, RedOne, Polow…
