Trybe Records #TopTalent Producer Edition: Top 10 Finalists Revealed Voting Starts NOW!
Here are the Top 10 finalists for the TopTalent Producer Edition. First of all, Trybe Records, NotjustOk and all Judges involved commend all producers who submitted their material for this competition. Most of you did a decent job and made this competition a difficult one for the people who had to pick the Top 10 Finalists. Amazing talent.
If you read the original post where we announced the competition, you will have noticed that the finalists were supposed to be 5 in total and these finalists were meant to be announced yesterday, but instead we ended up announcing the finalists today and choosing 10 finalists. The truth is that many of the songs received were very good and we were not able to cut down the list to only 5 finalists, so an executive decision was made to add the Top 10 songs to the list.
Go ahead and listen to the songs below and let the voting begin! Please remember that voting closes on October 14 and the winner will be announced on October 15.

Damn How did i not make the list? :s
masterkraft tooohhh bahd ahah! he murdered it
Congrats to all man here. Master kraft killed it.
Its MeloDee not 'melvitto' and teeklef says file not found
who said voting here is not difficult?? all de producers here did a great job
teeklef's isnt playing!!
FIXED! Sorry 4 that minor error.
Would Swizz Beatz enter a Kanye West competition? Why evils? Kid Konnect? MasterKraft? Haba
U forgot to mention TeeKlef.
For the first time in a very long time I am underwhelmed by a Kid Konnect production...The productions are ok, but a bit cliche, I was waiting to hear one producer that would really switch things up, but that never came...
PS: NJO, TeeKlef's entry is giving a File Not Found error, please fix that, until then, my vote goes to Melvitto but I'll wait to hear TeeKlef's before actually voting
Fixed. Sorry 4 that.
Giddy up Eman Ewere my guy, u too much, u r making it to da top man....
Enter text right here!
Y'all should vote for my boy EMMAN !! lets go there
I voted 3 times .. PDP in dis MF
woow !! nice beats y'all but imma be biased lol
ABEG OVIE.. hw can upcoming guys hook up wit sum of these producers??
Im feeling MELVITTO's out of every one else! Follow me on twitter btw @Epitome_Of_Swag
yeah Teekleff knocked this shit out the park yo..that joint was smooth
I agree
Yoo if it not Eman i don't know what i'm doing here, buh the rest tried tho @teeklef i didn't like it, it sounded too slow
Bt y would known producers enter to a competition aimed at new discovery?? Kid konnect & master kraft,una be agbaya 4 here oh .
Well what do you know, TeeKlef just aced the competition, good thing I waited to hear his version...He has my vote...Corn-Farmed...lol
MasterKraft should go and put his head in a hole. He should contest with Don Jazzy. Ass wipe contesting with the yash.... Producers way no reach am self form levels say em no go enter. Masterkraft is on the list sha! Shitty competition. i just informed Don Jazzy and Cobhams and they ve agreed to send in their entry too. Eldee and Ovie O take note.
For real tho 'hw swizz beatz go enter kanye competition' na? Hehehe...seriously sha i tot it ws meant for 'UPCOMING' producers?these guys all have the prize (sum even better) and used it...anyway teeklef's got it
At this rate I wouldn't have been surprised to see Ikon here as well.
Melvitto all day!!
y we go follow you for twitter??
All these guys came correct but since you can only choose one, I'll go with Melvitto. I think he did the best job; and I'll be surprised if he doesnt win it.
Good job guys!
A lot of really Good entries. I don't envy the judges one bit!
Genres are a bit predictable though... Pity no rock music version was attempted though... was hoping for some fresh air in that Genre. Pity my entry would also never see the light of day (In public)
All in all, really good mixes! May the best composer win.
not impressed at all..
Eman got this easy.
To be honest,all producers did their thing but thing is why take submissions from ppl that we already knw are top talent?I thut dis was meant to be a way of discovering new talents?and trust me,there's dis version I heard can't remember the composer's name but he killed all these peeps as a matter of fact,I had kid konnects' and I even got people to judge n all I've met said he killed kid so coming here to see kid I'm like jesus naija will never change.
Well, its a pity I ddnt make it 2 d top 10...guess my best wasn't gud enof..may d UP-COMING PRODUCER dat REALLY needs d price win...gud luck...tnx 2 Eldee 4 dis opportunity...God bless u.
Its between Melvitto and Eman.....KidKonnect and Masterkraft, upon na agbaya una still do rubbish
i was hoping to vote teeklef b4 i heard eman own, teeklef is good but i think eman version is d best, eman version actually look like d 1 i compose but did not post it cos i felt i am 2 big for the price. any way all d guys tried. eman takes my vote
real pity the a possible winner isn't on this list.half these guys were jus making beat, only few sounded like eldee used thier beat to make the extract. Producers didnt listen to everything most likely
Pheelz Gave me a different unique taste, versatile as well i you know good beats, Eman too tried ....
Pheelz is ma kind of producer.Good lUck Pheelz
Im feeling PLAYBACH and DJEMBA the most... all the beats are really good. NIG's got Mighty talent no doubt!
I don't think this gonna help Upcoming Producers In Nigeria with this List am looking at right here.. Kid Konnect, MasteRkraft are they Upcoming?
The fact that a producer has enough PR for you to have heard of him before does not mean they are big time. Get your own PR game up. Abi what mainstream hit song has kid konnect produced?
You sound like a sore loser. if dr dre decides to enter, let that be his call. These people you mentioned are up and coming to me sha, i have never heard of them before.
this competition is not a fair one
It was clear right from the start that this sh*t was gonna go to the old heads, but damn eldee im disappointed. Agbaya people
EMAN all the way...NO SHAKING.......
MELVITOOOO!!! ALL DA WAY! @melvitto d guy na problem!
@Campzcoco
nice 1 guyz but i was expecting sumtin better.....though its ok based on 9ja level, but internationally Menn!!
Eman all the way
eman has the best beat but so not the beat for the song. he really has talent though and will be nice if he wins but i will advise eldee to let him make another beat for the song
I'm sorry but didn't anyone listen to E-MAN ? That's some exceptionally great talent on the way. E-MAN !!!! Someone pls find me his/her pin. Thanks.
Djemba Djemba all the way!!! The bounce of the beat is crazy
i give it to masterkraft...........the production is lovely and cute
i strongly recommend the 1st guy Melvitto, cos he's got dat 9ja sound in eet ... Nice one other producers #NoHate pls !!
Guys the fact is the best production might not even win because the duty of a producer is to INTERPRETE MUSIC not BEAT MAKING....if u listened to the accapella its very obvious the style eLDee sang was Techno/House...so kudos to the guys even able to work a 'naija feel' to it...
so the fact that u don't like their individual production is a personal bias not lack of creativity...
