Underrated Producer Series: Organized Noize

So I was listening to Goodie Mob's first cd, Soul Food, and thinking how dope the production was on that cd. The production on the cd as well as the production on Outkast's entire first joint, Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik, was done by the Organized Noize production team. These are 2 classic albums in my opinion. Not to mention the work they did on all the other Outkast and Goodie Mob cds. With that being said, Organized Noize will be the first producers in my Underrated Producer Series.

Organized Noize are maybe the most underrated producers in hip-hop. They were definitely the most underrated of the 90's. Made up of Rico Wade, Ray Murray and Sleepy Brown, these kats put Atlanta hip-hop on the map and they did it without sounding like anyone else. They did it with hard beats and lush live instrumentation. They had that dirty south soul thing going on. I'm sure anyone that was listening to hip-hop in 1994-1995 remembers how Outkast came in and changed the game. They had their own lane and their own style. The same goes for Goodie Mob. Organized Noize also produced TLC's biggest hit, Waterfalls.
