    Even Jay Dee said that one of the big reasons he stayed in the basement making records when he was younger was because he wanted to be like Pete. He wanted to be as dope as he was, the sound he was making. When he said that to Pete Im sure Pete said Man, you are the producer im trying to be. 2 Greats that by the grace of God found each other through the music. Onelove ya feel me!

      Pete Rock would never say he’s trying to be like Dilla, EVER!!! Please know that. He loved J’s talent and his work, and could have even been inspired by him, but if you’re leading a race, you’re never gonna slow down and jog behind someone that’s trailing you. J. Dilla is one of the ABSOLUTE GREATEST producers ever!!! Upper echelon!!!! And yet he still is not on Pete Rock’s level

      @@jammyjam353 that very debatable. But remember that sometimes being the best means being prolific. J Dilla is one of the most prolific producer out there...there's a lots of J Dilla beats out there and some of them never been heard b4. Even 9th Wonder I don't think he's on Pete and Dilla's level, but because he put out so many great stuff..he's becoming a legend. I can vouch for both Pete and Dilla..sometimes I get confused who i like the most. But to sum it all up, Pete needs to release all those beat he keeps making.. I don't think there's a producer in New York who has found some of the rarest records than Pete Rock. Pete Rock is serious record digga.

    Yo, I copped "Mecca And The Soul Brother" on cassette (dating myself) when it came out. I can still see myself chilling in the food court, unwrapping the plastic from the tape, popping it into my Walkman and soaking it all in. Looking back, that was probably a turning point in my life. Hip Hop was going to be my future.

    This is a dope series. But I really wish they could spend more time with each artist.
    I would love for them to play some of the records, maybe two or three of their famous samples and two or three others that they didn’t sample.
    I understand that the producers don’t want to give up some of their unused germs, but anything that they would be comfortable playing for the viewer would be dope.

    I think Crate Diggers should do a "Making Of LP Episode". For example, for NaS "ILLMATIC". Interview each producer and have them speak in detail about how they met NaS, the process behind finding the sample,producing the beat and recording the song and how they felt once it made the final track listing. This would also be cool for "READY TO DIE" and "REASONABLE DOUBT".
