I'd say Dilla's strength was definitely in his production and he was phonomenal and greoundbreaking. The first two Diamond D LPs both have strong beats, tight lyrics and nice wordplay and the first is an all time hall of famer.. Doom is up there as a contender but whilst unique his beats don't really have the depth of Diamond imo... nor as many solid guest productions.

Dilla's the man, F da police is amazing,, but i was more a fan of his beats.. i was thinking the obvious choice was doom, but thats strictly a personal one..

Diamond D is dope, has a crazy discography, etc.....but my personal fave will always be Dilla. Obscure samples? Check. Swagger on the mic? Check. Dope beats? Check. A lot of cats jumped on his nutsack when he died, but his shit is bananas, point blank. Way iller on the mic than, say, Large Professor.

I remember the DJ on the radio going nuts and get bringing the track back to the beginning half way through the first verse - the only other one I'd throw in there would be Tribe's Showbusiness with Derek X and Lord Jamar.

That's like nominating lil Kim as a best lyricist when biggie wrote most of her early work. Diamond is a lyricist, has swagger like a mufucka on stage and is one of the original crate diggers. Dude has sampled shit most rap dudes couldn't sit and listen through...word to Kaeweezy. Bottom line, he coined himself the best producer on the mic and by his performance on stage last week, he still feels that way. That in itself is an absolute truth...who's gonna tell him different?
