It doesn't sound like you do get the gist, based on your comments. Here's the gist for you: A producer is the person responsible for everything in the song that isn't the rapping. They're a large part of what makes the song what it is—frequently the largest part—not simply some generic replaceable background component as you seem to imply.

Never said you did. But this conversation is about the whole artist, not just rapping ability.

Nope. You have it backwards. I'm just pointing out to you how ridiculous your accusations are about people "trying to look more obscure". If that applies to me because I don't like Kanye West, then it applies to you because you don't like Dr. Dre.

Who cares about his rapping? Again we're looking at the whole artist here, and his production on that album is great. That's what people like about that album, not Dre's rapping.
Also, you do realize
The Chronic isn't his only album, right?
2001 is his better album imo.
