Word. DJ Premier is a hell of a producer. From working with Nas, Gang Starr, Mos Def. Man's a Legend. Respek. Among my Top 5 BEST producers of ALL TIME
For those that didn't already know, Premo has his own TH-cam channel where be explains how he made his legendary beats. One video per song. He's been doing them for a year or so now. Also, another fact for those who weren't aware, he always samples an older song by the same artist on the new track. That's why "nasty nas" comes from an older Nas song.
One of the greatest rap songs ever. Master class lyricism, Grade A+ instrumental with an icy and simplistic beat, featured on of hip hop’s Crown Jewels. Everyone needs to listen to this song.
@@borisfortperso yes, to be able to sample like this and dig records for so long to find a good loop or chop is amazing and much harder than taking a Melody and adding drums on top. I’m a trap producer but humble enough 2 admit it
I've been loving this East Coast focus recently, first a couple of Mobb Deep then this masterpiece! This is first time I remember seeing one of the tracks moving sideways as it's scratched, very cool visualization.
I got chills. I swear. This beat is down right one of the best instrumentals in hip-hop ever. And on one of best, if the THE best hip-hop album of all time!
I find it pretty cool how Premier sampled a song called “Flight Time”, and in “N.Y. State of Mind”, Nas says, “Whenever frustrated, Imma hijack Delta”.
It’s videos like these that show you just how surprisingly complex these kinds of sample made pieces can be and give you a real appreciation for them. I didn’t know until now how complex this song really was in its sampling.
DJ Premier always was on another level. Absolute master digger of samples. And he made it sound like the samples were meant for this track, it's so clean you wouldn't even assume that it's all samples if you didn't know
One of the coldest instrumental out there.
Makes you feel like a don
"One of the coldest" make an assertive statement or fuck off

Yo I thought this comment was fake woa
@@15yearoldtrader29 So did I. Until I decided to check his account. It's definitely him.

“I never sleep huh, cause sleep is the cousin of death”.
Nas was and still is something else.

The scratch on that last sample is some great visualization
One of the most NYC beat in the existence of HipHop. That Album alone is music history. Nas will be always in my top 5 Rapper to death. Legend Premo💯
🙌🙌
Dead presidents a close second
@@fettywapsmissingeye nah not that close but it’s #2 fs
And it was made by a Houston dude lol
This and Survival of the fittest
Protect DJ Premier at all costs
ILLMATIC IS SUCH A GREAT ALBUM PROPS TO NAS FOR GOING CRAZY ON IT !
i dont know why, but this drum sample always hits extra hard, or nAsTieR than most i have heard.
I see what you did there and I like it.
Yea man, it just has this fucking punch to it
Compression. And you have heard drums that hit just as hard, or you haven't listened to a lot of music. Because this particular sound isn't uncommon.
He pitched shifted them lower I think
u mean NAStier
"I don't know how to start this shit"
Biggest lie in human history.
He was jus bullshittin’
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Fully appreciate you breaking this one down for us all to enjoy. An absolute monster of an instrumental
One of best instrumentals of all time

@@ccno1c DJ Premier So Wassup
So you're saying that the behemoth that is Nas is Like is just a regular song for Prem? He does that all the time damn what a trip.
I went to his channel but I can’t find this beat in particular lol
@@Fidozo15same here 1 yr later.
I guess he just hasn't gotten around to it yet with the plethora of beats he's made.
I'll wait patiently however.
The editing is so clean, I love this channel.
DJ Premier once again demonstrating pure skill on the prod. Just like hard to earn. A master he is.
its always a party when there's a new tracklib video
you guys got no idea how long we've been waiting for these, do pt 2 please its phenomenal
Nas is so good his own producers sample him on almost every song
Just Nas do this last night for the tour. The show was incredible
Oh shit you were at DTE too, Nas sounded so damn good he killed it🔥
Saw Nas live a year ago and he still raps like he's 18 in the basement. shit was crazy
God’s Son, The Don, Golden Child, ESCOBAR 600, NASTRADAMUS, “N”, THE GOAT!! 🐐
One of the greatest rap songs ever. Master class lyricism, Grade A+ instrumental with an icy and simplistic beat, featured on of hip hop’s Crown Jewels.
Everyone needs to listen to this song.
These sample breakdowns give me life man
Just Premier working his magic.
You don’t know how long i’ve been waiting for this
One of the greatest instrumentals/ songs of all time
One of the hardest beats ever
0:43
I really like how you play all samples
best sampling beats + best rap
Producers in the 80s and 90s were way more creative than those of today 💯
No

@@borisfortperso also with less resources meaning it took a lot longer
If thats what you think, listen to more music

One of the most iconic joints in the genre.
One of the most iconic beats of all time in my opinion, shoutout to DJ Premier
I got chills. I swear. This beat is down right one of the best instrumentals in hip-hop ever. And on one of best, if the THE best hip-hop album of all time!
I find it pretty cool how Premier sampled a song called “Flight Time”, and in “N.Y. State of Mind”, Nas says, “Whenever frustrated, Imma hijack Delta”.
0:27 that semitone drums
Just saw Nas and WuTang in Chicago a few nights ago. Incredible hearing this live.
Man this gives me the motivation to listen to the whole album again even tho i heard it yesterday
nas is amazin, he the reason why im motivated to improve my pen game
I love how you represent this visually
Great edit. Premo runs through hip hop history. One of the all time great producers.
Dj Premier,The G.O.A.T.
It’s videos like these that show you just how surprisingly complex these kinds of sample made pieces can be and give you a real appreciation for them. I didn’t know until now how complex this song really was in its sampling.
It be the simple flips that go the hardest.
Its crazy to see how much thinking the old school beat producers used to put in producing these iconic beats.
"Nothing's equivalent to the N.Y state of mind" 💪🗽
I'm glad to come across this great content through one of the classics on hiphop history
The harmony between the synth chop and the piano riff is unreal.
Nas had every great NY producer at the time on ONE body of work, shit was definitely crazy. Preemo, Large Professor, Pete Rock, Q Tip. Sheesh!
Who is here after being at his show in the Garden. This is the NY anthem
I still can't believe the quality of these video's, I see no better way to promote your service online honestly. Lovely stuff!
Nas x DJ Premier = 🔥
For sure, every collab of theirs is a hit.
Don’t know how he keeps sampling himself but it’s always so good
Nas is the type of person to sample himself
Best sample breakdown yet
Respect to the the mixing/mastering engineers whom elevate the music with their sklls. Listen to the difference with the track played raw to finished.
One of the best NYC rap song of all time. Nas will always be the Legend.
They way they put this together reveals the genius of producers like Primo!
LOVE HOW THE DEPICTION OF THE SCRATCHIN' IS BALLS ON ACCURATE....PEACE TO PREEM
Saw a Ceelo video yesterday and now I’m in love with this channel. I’m in awww with the art of sampling ❤
DJ Premier always was on another level.
Absolute master digger of samples. And he made it sound like the samples were meant for this track, it's so clean you wouldn't even assume that it's all samples if you didn't know
This beat makes me feel like I’m on the block watching somebody get robbed 😂😂
I mean, just classic!! So dope
Such an amazing beat, classic
One of the greatest hip hop beats of all time, bar none.
I’m glad you guys don’t sleep on classics, ‘cause you already know the sleep is the cousin of death #timeisillmatic
that first sample is iconic
Well done my G 💪🏾
Fantastic breakdown ❤️
샘플링도 천재적인데 영상 편집도 기가 맥히네요
DJ Premier is on another level
imagine how many samples the drums samples have within. probably Nas didn't make so much money with this record but still made a decent ammount.
nothing gets close to this beat , oldschool beats are something else
oh we getting into the classics huh?
I'm so glad they are. it's awesome.
this is one of the best rap beats of all time ALL TIME 😩😩
this is highest quality content. all the animations and finding the right sample snippets
Big up Premier but also shout out whoever edited this video 👏
hearing this beat gen gives me goosebumps, heard it live in glasgow and it was incredible
The smoothest beat there is
Genius.
BEST BEAT OF ALL TIME, IDGAF.
DJ Premier is one of the best ever
People always talk about the singer but, on this case (and many others), DJ Premier was god level
Könnte mir sowas stundenlang reinziehen!!!
DJ Premier was putting in a lot of work.
This has to be the peak of sampling because what??? 😭🔥🙌
This song and 'The world is yours' both have some of the craziest sampling beats that gives me chill when I listen to them!!🔥
Been waiting for this for a while
The day those aliens will be coming down to this earth asking what that rapshit be like, this is the track to play for them.
Oh my god i was waiting for this it's absolutely amazing

Yo what just happened that was crazy 🤯
My favorite series ever
Yet another example of why I consider Preemo the G.O.A.T.
If you think this is cool wait until you heard how nas recorded this, you'll gain new respect and love for this track afterwards
I'll never forget hearing this bump live
DJ Premier Best!
