There's been a bunch of talk lately about Kanye being the greatest ever. But the thing to me is that DJ Premier and Dr. Dre have been at it for 25 years, where as Kanye hasn't even hit 15. And DJ Premier in particular has produced for all kinds of rappers in all kinds of styles.

But I would probably put him third behind those two. RZA had the greatest prime of any producer (from 1993 through 1997), but he has been way too hit-and-miss in the 2000s.
