[uh-oh]

it all comes down to the definition of produced though, and i fall into using it in the same sense most people do.

when someone uses one of my tracks and puts the "produced by" credits for me, i didn't produce that track. i made the beat. they used it and produced the track they decided to do on it.

it comes down to who is making the beat

because technically kanye is producing the tracks. no one is coaching him through it, he gives the beats the life and vision he had for them.

but don't confuse it like he is the one flipping the samples, and he's the one doing everything

he'll sprinkle shit on top, im just not as impressed by that as someone who actually makes the beats.

but for real i had to stop googling because literally every one of his beats that i liked, (that i googled) were made by someone else. they don't get any credits for them in anything other than if kanye is asked directly. don't get me wrong he pays for the beats so he can do as he pleases with them.

but word i just always assumed he was the one making them. i've even made a thread on here before hyping him as one of the GOATS just strictly beatmaking. but then i had to look into it and become disappointed.

but word, im sure he's made SOME of them. but in reality i'm not sure lol, because every one i looked into he didn't make. he just played the puffy role, if puffy was actually talented himself of course.
