Fader blog delivers a classy little feature on trending hip hop producers. Particularly like the illustrations and, as always, the predictions are solid. 2011’s been a magic year for experimental rap production, with beat-makers not only gracing otherwise mediocre rap tunes with some booming sonic details, but also releasing full blown instrumental tapes to a continually receptive internet (Clams Casino anyone?). Here’s hoping the trend continues.
