Why doesn't Marley Marl get any respect?
He's never mentioned as one of the great producers but he is so influential and has produced so many classic beats. He put out all the juice crew artists and was major force in the careers of may of the greatest mcs, like Rakim, LL, kane, g-rap, etc. he has so many classics under his belt, I think he desrves top 5 consideration, at least top ten. what ya'll think?

yeah but he was doing his thing after that too, he basically saved LL's career by producing mama said knock you out, he even was doing it in the 90's with Lords of the underground, and producing LALA for cnn
and word to daconqueror I agree

No no thats not what im saying...he was doing his thing and has a great body of work for a producer but that battle really was that serious. It really dented his career like that.
Guess you learn something new everyday cuz I didnt know he did Mama Said

this post has no logic...
LL beefed with Marley too, and he later produced his best album. Fuk, KRS dissed the Juice Crew over a Marley Beat, yep.

At one point, I honestly believed that K-Def was going to be the one Marley pass the torch to...
this post is real talk...
Marley gets his respect and legacy. K-Def is the most selpt on great prodcuer

I did at one time wonder why he is always overlooked and then realized that the battle with KRS had alot to do with it.
Because his best selling album (Mamma Said) was after the KRS beef. Does everyone know that "The Bridge is Over" was a stolen Marley beat?

What do sales have to do with anything? We are talking about him getting props. ALOT of people view him as taking one of the biggest L's in hip hop and ignore his body of work.
He could have sold 30 million and it wouldnt change the fact the battle with KRS has seemed to dent his reputation.
I think people of a certain age count him as one of the greatest. To me he is def. a top5 producer of all time. If he'd have been more prolific in the second half of the 90's he wuldnt be slept on
K-Def ...def. underated

yeah thing about him not doing much in the second half of the 90's is true, I heard that he was angry about the fact that def jam ain't pay him for his work on mama said... (and still hasn't) and that made him lose a lot of passion for the rap game
