G'day Yall! We up in the naughty north, whe're just about anything goes... bring to you a perspective that may not have considered... With Canada's entertainers and producers killing it of late, we'd like to present to you the perspective of the DJ, and how they in 2009 saw our producers doing it; Canadian Stylee! Without further ado, we start this out with @idjmanifest, @djlaw3000, & @djandre905 with their picks and take on the top Canadian Producers of 2009. click the title links for preview
In 2009, it's almost too easy to say that the quality of production coming out of Toronto was world class. The Grammy nods and countless international collaborations among the upper echelon says it all. To pick two beats literally is a hard task, so the following producers for me highlight the producers who put out the best projects for 2009 (highlighted by my choice for their best track):In no particular order...
1) ONE
Producer: LYVE
Project: Tona & Lyve present Direct Deposit
Direct Deposit quite simply for me could go down as one of the best underground hip hop releases in 2009 PERIOD. The combination of artist and producer was nothing short of, well Reflection Eternal standards. The track 'See Me In Your City ' shows a crisp production technique and a much needed connection between artist and producer that is necessary. It's not just a beat, it's a full out SONG. Definitely a standout for 2009 !
2) TWO
Producer: Burd & Keys
Project: Goddess Girl
Highlight Track: The Declaration feat. The Kid Famous
This duo out of the Toronto suburbs came full flight on this project. Unknown to myself before 2009, these cats opened my eyes with the first street single The Declaration. Yes the trumpeting sound of the beat is arguably easy to manufacture, but it fit the concept of the Goddess Girl Movie project and the artist (for that matter) perfectly. It definitely made a declaration upon it's world-wide feature on Toronto Morning Live and week after week each beat brought a sound that has me believe that this production duo is on to big things for 2010.
HONOURABLE MENTION:
1) Boi1da - in any year his production credits for 2009 would have him at the top of most lists... his a bonafide killer! Too easy to put him on my top 3 - his Grammy nod will keep him company! LOL

There are way too many hot producers in Toronto to name so Imma just go off the top of my head with the first 2 that come to mind. 2 Producers that I can never complain when I hear a track from would be Tone Mason & Rich Kidd.
Both camps are versatile on who they work with and have there own unique sound which makes them leaders and not followers.
Here's a track by both producers that did it for me this year:
Saukrates feat. Rich Kidd - Salt and Pepper (prod. Tone Mason) 2009

Drake Ft. Saukrates - The Search (Prod. by Rich Kidd) 2009

2oolman burst onto the scene with the mixtape called "Hit & Run" with artist Scorsese. 2oolman handled the production for every song on the 29 track tape. He has since produced Hit & Run part 2. My favourite songs produced by 2oolman are Champion. The production on that joint is mature and dope. Its an easy flowing sound that will blend great with any crowd.
My second favourite 2oolman joint is Textual Healing by Scorsese. The production is bananas and this song is sure to bang at any club you play it in. The production is almost Neptunish but has a unique flavour that only 2oolman can add.

The song "Soaring to heaven" by King Reign f Tona, Saukrates, & Rich Kidd (produced by Rich Kidd)... Producer Rich Kidd sings on this song. He sang the chorus into his cellphone and recorded his cellphone recording.
I have attached the DJ pack for it (clean, dirty, instrumental, 8 bar, acapella). Here is the link to the DJ pack - http://sharebee.com/5cfadebfAnother favourite
