And it doesn't matter where premier is from he's a NY style producer. Zaytoven is from the Bay but nobody calls him a Bay area sound producer.
This is like when NYers claim Michael Jordan cuz he was born there.

okay dame grease(who is very underrated as a producer) was all over x's first album(he was probably more into the Vacant Lot Artist than the Ruff Ryders stuff at this point) but after that it was swizz more southern style that was at the forefront of RR movement from there...And the Ruff Ryders ain't have a NY sound?? The hell?
Dudes in here be either too biased for the south or too biased for NY.

Nice way to deflect what I said. What about them is Southern, where they were born, but not the music they put out?
How may songs did Swizz do on It's Dark?

What makes Hov great is his ability to work with a number of different producers from different regions with different sounds.

I went to a HBCU in the south
So again, what is southern about his sound?
So a couple of years of high school influenced Swizz, but Premier is a southern producer? What exactly was the Southern sound when No More Mr Nice Guy came out?
Much less Ski. Have you ever listened to Original Flavor? Did Camp Lo have a southern sound?

This.
Son trying to say Swizz is a Southern producer because he spent a few years in Atlanta and has Southern drums (debatable)....yet Premier is a Southern producer because he was born there.
And trying to move Chicago to the South
Ski had BEEN in NY at that point.
Y'all want it both ways. Hence "trying too hard".
Jay obviously worked with successful Southern producers. And successful NY producers. And successful Midwestern producers.
Stop trying to make it more than it is.

I'm sitting here wondering if he realizes the contradiction in his argument
Drag On was the most southern style artist in Ruff Ryders, but he didn't even mention Drag

Premier sound is 100% NY. So is Swizz.
Zaytoven is from the bay but nobody in their right mind would call him a westcoast producer. Where you're from and your style/sound are 2 different things.
The Heatmakerz are from Jamaica. I guess that makes them Reggae.

But he's your token Southern producer?
Born and raised in NY and coming up under his uncles, who, from NY, launched Ruff Ryders?
A label basically synonymous with Yonkers NY?
OK

It's funny on here.
This "NY vs the South" back and forth on here has its elitist d-bags on both sides of the argument.

New York is one of the fore father's of the trap sound considering one of its most successful artist during the trap renaissance a few years ago is a Queens native. Pay homage
