Best Producer Album of 09

Not a lot to choose from...

Dilla... easy

Gotta go with Alchemist here. Great mix of mc's with dope production. Some of my favorite tracks of the year are on here.

Dalek - Gutter Tactics

Dalek raps though, right?

marco polo

Marco Polo features one rapper named Torae. Not a producer album.

well he did the whole album for torae so fuck what you think hes my pick. and his name is on it, just because it only had one rapper i tihnk it should count

My real pick would be Dela "Changes of Atmosphere", but I bet most of you consider that to be a 2008 release even though it officially dropped in 2009 here in the U.S.. I include it as 2009 either way. Since he is absent, I'm going with J Dilla . After a few spins, I even went out and bought the album again on wax. Dig that one a bunch. BK One is a close 2nd (minus Dela).

Didn't you include Dela in your 2008 top list? That would preclude you from double dipping like this.

smh @ Cory's home country favoritism

Chemical Warfare wins for me

So is this a list of albums made by people who strictly produce but can have rappers on them, or is this strictly instrumental albums? If it's the latter Chemical Warfare is disqualified.

No. I did not include Dela on my list last year.

I believe it's the former, because the latter would also disqualify Jay Stay Paid.

Dilla

J$P...Mike E. Clark is my favorite though

that Snowgoons goes pretty hard too

Oddisee - Mental Liberation--->This would've been my pick...

Dilla, would be my second pick..

Peace

The difference between the Alc and albums like Double Barrell are that Alc isn't on every track. He raps occasainally. If the album was predominantly him rapping, then I wouldn't have counted it. Not to mention, Alc completely changed his production style on the new album and used the mpc in a really innovative way.

Got to go with Dilla here.
