Dr Dre VS Timbaland

theirs no way u can single some one out and say you are the best they do different styles of beats. Dre has the drums which u can just say thats Dre and Timbo has the strange synthy Abstract beats but all so great beats.

I’d say they are 2 of the best producers in the game but their are 100’s of great producers doing great beats with less effective programs but these guys have been doing top notch beats for years Dre over 20 years Timbo 10+

u can’t choose like saying who’s better Biggie or Tupac booth great rappers at what they do u can’t choose who’s better

nice topic though VV

Good angle to this topic indeed V.V
i think one has to look at what the role of the producer is and what they have accomplished and by this i would have to say that for the moment Dre stands well over Timbo.

With all respect to the Artsists, i think it is fair comment to say that artists like Eminem, 50, Game ect were not Initially as marketable and maybe as talented as the likes of Aaliyah,
Justin, Nelly Furtado and Missy.

if you think, where would the likes of Em,Game 50 be without Dre – ‘underground??’ where as Justin Nelly F and Missy surely would be out there.

Dre has changed a music genre on a good 3 occassion throughout his 20yrs – NWA to Doggystlye to Chronic 2001 and Marshall Mathers. granted Timbo is doing the same with R&B/Pop at the moment.

But Dre turned possible ‘nobodys’ into superstars, Timbo turned Stars into Grammys and Sales.

2007 without a doubt is Timberlands year though.

my 2 cents on it

No competition! TIMBO runs over dre any day of the week

Dre’s shit won’t sound SUPER dated like Timbo’s will in 10 years… history will show Dre as more of a all-timer and Timbo as more of a pop producer IMO

timbaland is a pop god, but a lazy dude.
between danja patching his synths to using the same beatbox samples in a bunch of high-profile tracks, dudes should make this guy run for his yayper proper.

dre hasn’t produced a hot beat in a fucking long minute though.

timbaland is probably still top, but even the Neptunes have managed to switch up their game more..

i think this is more a Timbo vs Neptunes discussion than Dre vs Timbo.

I personally like Dre better, but when I listen to all Tim’s done over the years, the Magoo stuff, old Missy like "I Can’t Stand The Rain", the r&b stuff on 100% Ginuwine, all the way through the newer Justin, Nelly, and Republic stuff, it’s gets hard to justify why I feel that way.

Dre by a mile. Most of Timbs recent beats have been

DRE.

Dr Dre >>>> Timbaland
