Just about every Hip Hop fan has a list ready to go of producers they’d want working on their ideal rap album. Even Hit-Boy does too, after he took to Twitter on Monday (January 31) to hand-pick his lineup of legendary producers to work alongside on a “classic” project, which came in response to a viral tweet making the rounds on social media.
“me ye just blaze and alchemist,” he wrote for his preferred quartet behind the boards before going into what the debut album would be like sonically. “Fr fr I can cover any style of the 808 shit y’all want from polo G juicewrld to Travis scott. have just blaze pull up wit a few soulful vibes then have alchemist slide wit the dark soul. Ye can oversee it and add where he pleases. Classic fr.”
Outside of Hit-Boy, Just Blaze, Kanye West and The Alchemist, other options on the table in this graphic posted by DJ First Class included Dr. Dre, Pharrell, Timbaland, Metro Boomin, Cardo, Jermaine Dupri, Mustard and Southside.
With the beef between Kanye and Hit-Boy now squashed, the pair of Grammy-winning artists can get back to making more magic together.
The Game Says New Album Will Solidify Him + Hit-Boy As The Next 'Nas & Premo, Hov & Just Blaze'
Hit-Boy reunited with Ye and The Game by producing their “Eazy” collaboration, which was released in January and flips Eazy-E’s “Eazy-Duz-It.”
With Kanye locking in with just about everyone from Pusha T to A$AP Rocky and DJ Khaled for Donda 2, it’s not as far-fetched as one might think for Ye to get Hit-Boy, himself, former Roc-A-fella running mate Just Blaze and The Alchemist under one roof at the same time.

Where’s Timbaland and Havoc???
Muggs, Madlib, etc….
He forgot some of the Best… smh
he didnt forget anybody. Nobody is rushing to hear the new madlib record.
Timbaland is the greatest producer of all time not named Quincy Jones and Quincy called him his heir. Game over.
DJ QUIK??
How come DJ Premier, RZA, Havoc and Madlib are ofltenly left out of these lists?? These motherfuckers always pick some of the corniest producers ever like Jermaine Dupri,Timbaland, Kanye West and Pharrell who sounds more like pop music than anything else. FOH!
None of those producers you mentioned sell. This isnt the 90’s anymore.
You’re right it’s the 2020’s where men wear skirts and meow on the mic. These corny producers fit well with androgynous artists.
