@@77Productions77 looks like they deleted the comment I don't see it. Rza is a fuqin wizard, on the boards and the mic. He was untouchable throughout the 90s
I read an article a few years ago that he had zero knowledge of playing instruments before making beats. A true musician called him out ( no idea if with or without disrespect) and ever since he has started to learn and aquire new knowledge and skills. If I ever find the article I'll do my best to post a link.
@@angelrivera8013 please do! I played music as a kid but didn't stick to it. I make beats and wish I had kept playing! It adds a different layer of complexity if you can play your own chords etc. I salute him for stepping up to the challenge!
The funny thing is, method man said “the moment rza walked in with an electric guitar on his back Wutang died”. I might have that last line wrong but that’s basically it
2 of my favorites. That’s also what makes RZA great…..the fact that he’s never been boxed in when it came to other cultures & sounds etc he uses them all and out comes truly original & unique magic. Shtt make me miss the 90’s
The whole time, I mean since like 1996, I thought RZA was just sampling and adding drums. This dude is a concert pianist who plays all the instruments lol
You ever notice the difference with old school guys like him he’s always been investing his money in what he does music. I bet his vinyl collection is worth a good chunk alone.
That's my boy the coolest guy from the Wu-Tang Clan. RZA should make his own karate films I would watch it & I support RZA no matter what I also want an acting / film career
rza is such an amazing producer bruh, and afro samurai was such a masterpiece in every way, rza added even more emotion than there already was, beautiful
The RZA is deep for real it was the perfect storm his mind and musical capabilities and talent to mix with the intellectual lyrical fire street mc's to form the wutang did anyone catch where he said he gets different sounds from the same instrument by just broadening his fingernail something he picked up from watching the style of other musicians a true student master and LIVING legend
RZ is the maaan. That first song he wrote was probably one of the best ones in the movie. If youve watched the scene you know. Straight revenge music. I bet TO loved it
What a legend. I fell asleep watching afro samarui last night and just listening to the music I just knew the feeling it was conveying and I could see it being played out with my eyes closed. That's the best way I can describe how wild and great the RZA is
Yooooo when i was 13 years old it was over that 36 chambers album dropped I'm at my radio every day listening to that album non stop he different 🔥🔥🔥Wu forever
@@rgw1380rw i actually met Dirty and RZA in the late 90's. RZA was very nice and cordial. Dirty had beer on his breath but he was quiet; not the wild dude that we were used to seeing RIP.
@@Unkle_Mike The first time I saw ODB was after he jumped out of a moving cab on Rockaway Blvd. He hollered out *The Black man is God* and went in the store to get his beer and rolling papers🤣.
RZA IS A HIP HOP MUSIC WIZARD !!!!! AS I SAID MANY TIMES IN MY LIFE , HIP HOP MUSIC COULD BE A LIFE MUSIC WITHOUT BAD THINGS ( DRUGS , GUNS , ROBBERY , CLAN WARS , CRIMINALS ETC. ) !!!!! IT'S NOT MADE ONLY FOR ILLUMINATI SATANIC RITUALS AND LIFE , IT HAVE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTALS , MELODIES , LYRICS !!!!!!!
This is why he’s my favorite Wu - member his skill is beyond that of his body and is complete with his mind, but there was a faithful day I witness this and the other clips on Afro production I decided he was the one, number one
as the white boy that never goes out of his way to listen to any kind of hip hop or rap and only knows wu tang by their reputation, this dude looks like a god damn musical genius in this video.
Oh my gosh!! I'm 1:20 into the vid and I had to pause and make a comment. I came on here because I started listening to hip-hop again and wanted to see what one of the greats was up to and Bam! This man is a genius. He's got a musical sensibility so unique. Not only rap, but all music lovers can appreciate this man's gift. Rza was always ahead of his time. Unlike some other WU members, Rza embraced all cultures and music and is just a brilliant, funky and special person. He belongs in the Rock and Roll hall of fame. Keep making great REAL music Bobby.
RZA is a god in production. Top tier. Personally think he's next to Dre, if not very close. This man was so respected in the 90s, his chain got robbed, 2pac heard about RZA's chain, and 2pac got it back for him the next day.
That instrument he was playing on at 0:41 ... I can hear a potential FIRE ASS BEAT ... if I was a rapper i would save this video and go straight to RZA for it
Razor sharp! 0:18 Thelonious Monk poster on the wall! He is my favorite jazz musician as well. Cool knowing that RZA likes him too! It figures with his weird piano playing and compositions. Think outside the box.
Now I can see some resemblance between RZA and my moms, they both like to get to know a piece of gear and they stick to it and use that and save the amount of time it would take to learn something that might be a lot newer. Sometimes I focus on something too much and suddenly I’m forgetting to breathe because I’m too concerned with some small detail and I should actually let the thing go. RZA seems really flexible with a whole lot of his creativity and that’s why he’s so diversified and has multiple skills and talents. GREAT VIDEO! Because it’s short and only gives a small glimpse into the RZA’s workflow, although here he isn’t anything like a heartless robo-rapper to be feared for his devastating beats and rhyming. This really shows just how down to earth he is and also that you don’t have to be completely obsessed with, or worse even consumed by meeting some rigorous standards that you’re actually holding yourself to. And he’s a great story teller! Really ready to openly admit what cultures he burrows from, and ready to discuss his stories behind the process. We could all take lessons from this guy, but he somehow reminds me that we can take lessons from anyone, in a very low key way. Thanks for sharing this!!
Do not forget to watch RZA's music production for Afro Samurai 1 here : th-cam.com/video/Q-iN5raPx3g/w-d-xo.html
Is that "fight for you" song available anywhere?? thats my favorite joint from the score..

RIP POPA WU
He is
man whoever has him as an uncle is the luckiest bastard
😂😂
HELL YEA THIS NIGGA IS MY FAVORITE MUSIC PRODUCER PERIOD
Facts
Ghostface's kids have him for an uncle.
Young Dirty Lucky Bastard
People don't realize how legendary the production of afro samurai was.
Soundtrack is vitality bro!! 😌🔥🔥🔥
Even as a kid I was in love with it and I didn’t even understand. Just seeing an anime where rap was in the background was everything 🔥
@@lightbear939 exactly!!!
My first time watching it I was like yo this shit is slept on. The show's so good
he looks like a mad scientist w that hair lmfaoo
HE IS!! AAAAAHHHHHH!! HAH! HAH! HAH! HAAAAAAHHH!!!**crazy laughing**
it's afro man
skeaneable prince has an afro RZA with respect has a messy afro
oo oo -black einstein....word
True 😂💯💯
Always cool getting a gem in my recommendations.
What if rza made a dbz track
Robert Carrillo Ong that would be lit
RandomBlackGamer I’m saying
@KingCai72 good 1. And you suppose to be 1 of my subs 😁
RandomBlackGamer yoooo big fan of ya channel!
RZA isn't just a hip hop/rapper. He isn't just a musician. He's David bowie level. Genius of music

This man is a Genius.
yeah he is, as a Musician he is a genius, but as a actor not so good.
GZA is da genius
@@wormsboro He is well read enough to represent himself in a court case after shooting someone, then winning the case.
No he's the rza!
@Billy McCarthy RZA the instrumental genius and GZA the lyrical genius
Never knew he actually played instruments. That shows growth and makes him an even more amazing producer. And he can spit too. Salute RZA.

I need a whole hour of Rza making tracks
Mini series followed by a trilogy.
@@MarkHayes-ue7hs followed by a double disc movie
I have a feeling if Bruce lee was around doing movies still then he would’ve friended RZA
Joseph Colunga I think he would’ve been in a couple Wu-Tang videos
@@Geronimo410 🤔💯💯💯💯💯💯that'd be cool
He would of loved wu tang clan.
don't think so
@@towerjamz you really have no clue. Just stay away from this... Stay the fuck away!!!
I'm Sick!!! He working out of a bedroom to make pro work! Let's you know you don't need a massive studio, just mad skill to get it done.
While I get the sentiment. His gear in there is insanely expensive. He doesn’t have a big analog console but he has everything else
@@casillasscorer I'd have to agree. i been wondering how much that piano/key board cost. But still, just at the crib.
Rza made classics in his mommas basement. Way before all that stuff. His production actually got worse the better the equipment got.
@@mackinshizzaveli4202 in what way would you say it got worse?
Yes but he absolutely mixes ....and finalizes iin a big boy studio
no one could´ve done this better than RZA. the best producer in my oppinion.
Word is bon
Marshall B can’t do that when he’s de....
Ok nvmd
Dj premier
But ofc RZA is in the top 5
Lol there are a lot of better producers like madlib,Kanye,daveed etc
jr mance nigga
Damn I have the same printer as RZA
😮😞
Luke Lawrence humble brag
HOLY FUCK same hahahaha
Luke Lawrence lol
RZA whole setup look low budget af. Tiny ass PC screen and buncha shit crammed on a $99 Target desk.
I never knew RZA played instruments. Dude is a legend. Wu-Tang forever!
3:02 When he said "hanging around my boy Shavo and them, they Armenian" he's talking about System of a Down!!! Respect
Sweet!
I was aboutta comment if no one said anything haha I heard shavo and I was like hold up
SOAD did cover Shame on A Ni*** with Wu Tang

Does both
Definitely picking him over Dr Dre💯👌🏾
RZA never wastes his talent
You can see what a genius this man is when he's in his own element.
This is how a real ARTIST looks like! ❤️ Tons of respect for RZA 💯💯💯💯

Hampton makes him even more better. He pushed himself to progress
OMG!!!! i have all the episodes, the movie, the soundtracks... i love robert diggs so much OMG!!! ALL WU TANG FOREVER
Top 10 producer of all time.
Top 1
Afro Samurai and Samurai Champloo will always be my favorites
That fucking beat🔥 damm RZA give the rest of us young producers a chance 😹
What a legend. I fell asleep watching afro samarui last night and just listening to the music I just knew the feeling it was conveying and I could see it being played out with my eyes closed. That's the best way I can describe how wild and great the RZA is
Nothing but respect. One can only wish to collab with the one and only RZA!
The RZA aka Jonny Green Wu ... Both extremely talented musicians with superb experimental skills
The RZA is a musical genius his beats are soooo sick hands down favorite producer/rapper
LONG LIVE THIS MAN!!!👏👏👏
THANK U FOR EVERY BEAUTIFUL BEAT!
Rza is funny, he got keyboards and everything on the floor. You know he is a mad scientist. THE WUUUU
This is what separates producers from composers...RZA composer
Man is easily one of the most talented producers ever.
I've always had respect for RZA as a producer, but wasn't aware that he knew how to play chords! It's cool to see that
I hope he does more with anime films and music because afro was powerful word my favorite anime film and series
I just found the series and now I am here 💜
This man, he's a perfect fit for the series
RZA did a great job to this animated series!
*the hair that would make Einstein jealous*
I could listen to this dude talk all day.
Genius level production going on here. 👏
Yooooo when i was 13 years old it was over that 36 chambers album dropped I'm at my radio every day listening to that album non stop he different 🔥🔥🔥Wu forever
I didnt know he played instruments
well hes been a producer forever so he should be able to play a little at least.
He learned them for the Wu-Tang Forever album
me either holy shit
Did you see how he was making that electric piano weep and squirt?
@@foreverseethe 😂

@@FeiTheVillain I'm sure RZA studies martial arts. I wonder if he's the only member of the Clan that practices it?
Rza was my hero as a child ... I would love to chill with him then go to the studio too ... Maybe thats too far fetched , maybe not

Love this video. Its amazing seeing so much talent and the way he portrays it and they way he speaks about how it becomes what it is
watching this right after watching the beat thang video is really an experience
I wish he make a new afro samurai🎉😁
Just rewatch this film...love your music so much man
I would KILL to make a song with RZA. Also, interesting that he uses Protools, I use Reaper.
One of the G.O.A.Ts 🔥! Peace GOD RZA!
I would’ve been mad if they did a whole Afro Samurai and NOT have RZA on the soundtrack duties.
Man, The Rza is one badass musical dude!!!
That electric grand piano and the instrument after that!! I need it 😮💨
one of my role models right here much respect
Hearing him play all the instruments thinking man how many beats could he make today
