Producer is a term used more lightly in hiphop... It can mean making the beat (everything but the lyrics on a song). OR it can mean making the beat, working with the artist, coming up with the melodies for the singing, contributing to lyrics and basically running the whole shit.

Take Justin Timberlakes latest album, which is actually pretty hot. Timberland made the beats. I believe he also comes up with most of justins lyrics and at least the tune he sings them in. Anyone could come in and replace justin, and it would still be a hit.

Edit: And yeah, my vote's for Timbaland. The guy's a genius, Scott Storch is just a flavour of the month. As soon as Dr. Dre changes his sound again, he'll be outdated.
Uhh.. flavor of the month?

You know he was the keyboardist for the Roots right? It's not like he came from nowhere.


Dummies.
