    Dude was 1/2 of the Neptunes, a group who's produced classic tracks like, Rock Your Body from JT, drop it like it's hot, Southern Hospitality, Milkshake, oh and f---ing HOLLABACK GIRL


    Even going into his solo s---, he created Happy, probably the most addictive song of 20wheneverthefuckthatdropped 2010-2013 felt all like the same year to me, Frontin with Jay Z, and Number One with Ye.

    Dude also brought japanese clothing to a western audience, being decked out in all bape with his deck in his hand. Even created BBC which is still a popular clothing line.

    dude gets overlooked.

    I think he gets his due credit tbh. He's done f---ing awesome to be as relevant and forward thinking as he has been over his two-decade-plus-spanning career.

    And hasn't aged a day either. :wow2:

    What? P definitely gets his dues he's constantly bigged up by his contemporaries and newer dudes I think plenty of ppl on here would put him in their top 5/10 producers all time

    Chad is really the underrated one considering he was a much better musician when they were in peak neptunes/nerd era

    I think he gets pretty decent props tbh. I definitely wouldn't say he's severely underrated or anything. I think he gets pretty due praise.

    I don't honestly. Only person i've seen truly came out and praise this man is Tyler. Dude has done so much for the culture. A good portion of the most popular songs from 2000s he had something to do with. I just personally never hear him in top tens at all

    It will forever blow my mind how is he the same guy that contributed to those corkscrew face productions on h--- Hath No Fury to making....Happy

    That range is unreal and Neptunes in their prime were so d--- good. As an entrepreneur, P easily inspired so many trends especially with fashion.

    Its cause a lot of his dope work is from him as a producer, and producers don't get talked about much in conversations too much.... at least in the mainstream context
