Draft: Dj Premier as my producer.

I thought about this for a while and I thought since my next draft is going to be after 35 other picks I might as well get the best producer possible. If everything works out I can still get good rappers that also fit good with Premier.

I don't know if this has been said yet but since muffin is done already I think we should let the next person go now if they wish but still keep their original deadline.mowz00

damn...I missed all this ish...fat_rob

for the first pick of the 2009 OTB Hip Hop draft the New York NETYANKEAGLE select 9th Wonder *everyone claps haters boo*NetYankEagle

You mean I was the first pick...

I can imagine it now...your 2nd round pick is a certain Roc-A-Fella artist, and he's saying "Same Drums in the building!!!" rather than "It's The Roc In The Building!"

Apoc has had over 48 hours to make a pick and he hasn't yet. Mems is on the clock.Colt45fool

[QUOTE="Colt45fool"]Apoc has had over 48 hours to make a pick and he hasn't yet. Mems is on the clock.-Twilight-

Anyways, Mems missed his pick, and it's my turn. With the 5th overall selection, I choose Nas

Orlando_Magic is OTC until 12 PM on Saturday, with the 6th overall pick.

damn...I missed all this ish...fat_rob

What are the rules about drafting a production team, for example the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, among one of many? Allowed or not allowed?Orlando_Magic

Aight cool. I'll draft Andre 3000 as my first rapper 8)

Twilight has my picking for him because he won't be around at his timeslot...

With the seventh overall selection, Twilight has chosen The Runners for his producer

HaSheeSh_basic is currently OTC...

did the white dude steal that outfit out of your closet Colt?Orlando_Magic

I didn't figure that people would overlook the dead, but oh well guess I gotta pick him

J Dilla (producer)

J Dilla (producer)

WorstGameEver

I was wondering if anyone would draft the Ummah, so that they'd get Dilla, Q-Tip, and Ali Shaheed Muhammad all with one pick. I wasn't sure if it was exactly legal so I passed on it, but I guess we don't have to worry about anyone picking them anymore:P

if someone was gonna do that they might as well have just picked the SoulquariansWorstGameEver

Last time I checked you can't read the liner notes of any album and see the words produced by the Soulquarians (to my knowledge), not to mention the crew also includes rappers as I'm sure you know....

while you can open up the liner notes to an album like Beats, Rhymes, and Life and see produced by the Ummah...

go find your copy of 'Like Water For Chocolate' and tell me that again ^^WorstGameEver

true... and I looked through Quality just now too...

however like I said, there are rappers and singers in the Soulquarians... so how would you even classify them.

a supergroup? :o

Kanye West (right) - Producer

mowz00

whore

question clot?

if i pick someone who is an all around hip-hopper, do i have to limit him to either producer/rapper? like mowz's pick of kanye?
TheBigTicket21

Yo Colt. Do we get extra points for combinations or what not? Like let's say Orlando drafts Big Boi next round and because Andre 3000 and Big Boi evolve into OutKast at Level 36, does he get extra points? Or are they seen as individuals and not a group?Aljosa23

And TBT, like WGE said, you have to designate each artist to one position. Kanye West is either your lead producer, lead vocalist, or an emcee, he can't be a combination.

I'm surprised everyone's going producer so early. I bet I can wait until the final round and get my ideal producer 8) Though he definitely won't mesh with my ideal vocalist....I'll probably just scrap the vocalist though, and take the producer I want in the 5th :) You guys are about to get owned.

Also, keep in mind guys, you can have three different sets on your label. it can be 3 emcees/2 producers, 4 emcees/1 producer, or 3 emcees/1 producer/1 vocalist....so say you took a producer in this round that mainly works with soul beats, and then drafted an emcee that doesn't go well with soul beats...you can always draft a more electronic beatmaker to fit that emcee's skills.

I'm taking Lauryn Hill as my pick. (As a rapper)elpooz

I'm not trying to rag on you, I'm just wondering, because I know guys like Apoc and Mems have been around and I'm wondering why they haven't made their picks yet. Looking for a better way to fix the situation...maybe guys need to be PMed when its their pick...that or check the draft thread more often :P Again, I'm not ragging, since you're actually picking a whole day before your off the clock, I'm just wondering.

I'm gonna go with Asher Roth...

Just kidding. Hov, I choose you!
