well, it's always the same with music magazines.....the NME has a new rock pioneer every two weeks...but who actually gives a f***?

If he makes a good Soul album, or R & B (can't ask for too much of him), then I'll call him a great producer. Now, he is just leading the front for current hip-hop, and simply using old tricks at that.
you're obviously one of the guys who rather listen to old underground records than admitting that a pop record is great.
yeah, it's pop music, yeah it's R&B, yeah it will probably be #1 in the charts, but after all it's a good record and neatly produced (maybe a bit too much of the horns and strings and stuff, but it works).
i didn't say that he is going to change the world of hip hop, right?

Producers of Rap music. And now, it's the "wonder-producer".

I dont' hear the hype; I listen to, and stock the records.

Great producers can produce any type of music. Liam Howlett should have accepted the right to produce Madonnas '98 album, but he turned it down. Madonna, and others, think he has the ability. Rick Rubin could produce anything. If Kanye can do non-rap with just as much impact, then I'll call him a great producer. Now he's just a good, solid rap artist.

That's more of a P.S. to Rolling Stone. Their article all but gives him a happy ending. (innuendo alert)

I think there is no point in comparing Rick Rubin with Kanye. There are many producers I like more than Rubin even if they are only good within a constrained area of music. I.e. Timbaland. So I don't agree that because Kanye only produces rap while Rubin produces from Danzig to the Run DMC it makes him a better producer.

I do agree though that Kanye is overhyped as a producer just because he is the only one producing in that style at the moment, and I don't believe that Kanye is the best producer in the music business or anything like that. But his new album is still great.
