Best Up & Coming Producers

    Production is obviously a major ingredient in any great hip hop track and as we all know some hip hop producers are as famous as the artists that they work with, which is fairly unique to the genre.

    The likes of The Alchemist, The Neptunes, Dr. Dre, DJ Premier, Timbaland, Kanye West, etc have been creating beats for well over a decade in most cases, but who, in your opinion, are the best up and coming producers in hip hop right now?

    My choices would include:

    Harry Fraud: As soon as I hear "La Musica De Harry Fraud" at the start of a track I know it's going to be something special and it usually is. Hopefully he starts to gain more notoriety and gets to work with some really big artists over the next while. I'm absolutely dying to hear his collaboration with Action Bronson on "Saab Stories" which will be released early next year.



    Clams Casino: I really love the spacey almost hypnotic tracks that this dude produces. His work so far with Mac Miller and A$AP Rocky has been really impressive and his instrumentals mixtapes are getting rave reviews on sites like Pitchfork. I'm hoping to hear alot more from him in the future and will definitely be keeping an eye out for him on up coming albums.



    T-Minus: I've only recently taken notice of this guy as he usually produces for artists that I don't really listen too (Nicki Minaj, Drake, Lil Wayne, etc) but he seems to be blowing up right now and has produced some really nice beats for the likes of Kendrick Lamar, T.I., Slaughterhouse and is working on upcoming projects with Jay-Z, Pusha T & A$AP Rocky.
