My Take
Mike Elizondo is my idea of the perfect collaborator. A Dr. Dre protege who can produce, write, and play guitar and keys, he moves between hip-hop, rock, and pop without ever sounding like a tourist. Look at the range: 50 Cent, Eminem, Linkin Park, Fiona Apple, Mastodon, Twenty One Pilots, Peter Gabriel. That is not luck, it is a deep toolkit and an ego small enough to serve the song. I admire artists who make others sound better rather than chasing the spotlight themselves, and Elizondo has quietly done exactly that for decades. He is a genuine musician's musician.
