Opinionated!!! Q: Who are the top 5 producers in Baltimore? A: Reina Williams Producer/Composer/Engineer/Beat Battle Champion/Singer/Songwriter (with very impressive industry credits)

Kariz Marcel: He really takes time and effort to make music and doesn’t just crank out beats. He uses real musicians alot of the time

Beat Ryda: Beatryda isn’t boxed in by the MPC. He loves to know about technology and makes it a point to master his weapons of choice when it comes to making his music

Ish: ish was the first hot producer that I was exposed to in Baltimore when I interned @ oz recording studio. Until I met him, most tracks I heard from local kats sounded amateur. His stuff sounded like they were radio ready. He also used the proteus rack hardware which was real dope @ that time. He did cool stuff with the sounds and was just an inspiration to me

dj class: dj class isn’t just a beat maker, he is a composer. His original tracks are amazing cause he is a composer.

Kid from Track Kings: He’s dope. He is very in tune with the sound of “today” and seems to pull it off effortlessly.
