As a producer you get asked a lot, if you feel you wasted a beat on certain artists. I usually reply "if they paid for it, its wasnt a waste."
Anyhow, which beats do you think certain artists wasted?
Dela Soul - Shopping Bags (off the grind date album)
Produced by Madlib
Madlib laced them with a dope club/crossover beat, and i feel they didnt capitalize on what could have been a really succesful song. Think they got the flows all wrong on this one. The beat was phat, the hook was on point. But the raps were the weak link.
Cant think of any local songs off the top of my head. Can anyone?
