The struggle of the producer within this digital era

Editor's Desk: The Under-Appreciated Producer

Producers often stand in the shadows of the artists. Although they lay the foundation of the song, for some reason, they never get the same amount of credit as the artist. I've written a piece before, talking about how much I appreciate producers myself, simply for the fact that the first thing I listen to from a song, is the music, the beat, the melody, the harmony. Its not until after I like what I hear music-wise, that I actually start paying attention to what's being said in the song. Through the music.
