So glad to have the Main Ingredient talked about like this. It was a master piece. I think CL matched the production perfectly

[simon]

The Main Ingredient is one of the best produced albums of all-time .

[evidenz]

Yes. As a producer, the main ingredient is thee Pete rock album. The album sends you somewhere else.

[MaSungoddess]

I still listen to Pete Rock and CL Smooth!!! That song “ When They reminisce Over You” is a whole vibe !!! Yes please give them their 🌸 flowers they are so underrated !!!🔥🤗💜

[GoodxJ]

Love both Pete and CL albums!!! classics. 🙏🏻💎🎤

[kincamell]

Gratitude

Ps That Pete Rock Soul Survivor is amazing as well.

[lexxmusic]

I always loved how Pete used the the shoutout from ATCQ‘s „Verses From The Abstract“ on „In The House“. The way the main sample matches with Vinia-Mojica‘s voice is perfect.

Who feel like the most influential producers of the first golden age of hip-hop?

[nerdbamarich]

Can't wait for the full interview...🙏🏾🙏🏾

[suleimanmustafa]

I Get Physical, Sun Won't Come Out and I Got a Love are my favorite 3 song stretch on an album

[alalefosio]

I like how snippets of beats got played in between songs on the 'main ingredient.' Always thought that was a game changer.

[CainaanDC]

The main ingredient is definitely in my top five. Cl has one of the dopest voices in the game. And Pete rock on production is always a good thing.

[samthemac]

"Tell me" from main ingredient. Put that on right now - one of the illest, banging smoothest and hype joints on the planet.

[TheTriangleOffense]

All The Places, It’s on You, and Take you There some of my favorite beats from that album

[tonysmith]

PETE'S INTRO THAT'S WHERE I'M GOING WITH MY PRODUCTION AS WELL, TOO INSPIRED.

[snoolee]

Excellent interview. Thanks! Justin is completely brilliant.

[cbrown]

Musicianship. At its finest. Thank you!

[flavwhite]

You can tell how PR grew and evolved as a producer on "Main Ingredient" album. It was SO many samples he used in ONE song on that album!

[manatarmsslaps]

The crazy part about those two albums is that they wanted to make something like mecca on the second album but THE LABEL wanted them to make more of the smooth type of r&b type of album. This was said in a Pete Rock interview done over the last 2-3 years

[markhunter]

The Main Ingredient is a masterpiece album.
