this is one of the most intricate beats ive ever heard. there are so many different aspects of it.
If you're looking for more intracacies and layers look up Lapalux
"Redbone" had even more layers. You should check that one out. #GeniusPlug
Check out Flying Lotus! :)
Victoria P go listen to some jon bellion, his music is super layered as well
that's because there's musicians on it. smirk. no but actually the players on this thing are amazing.
Love this series. Never stop these.

they did 🥲
These producers got lucky af, good for them cause they're talented.
yeah, not a easy beat to come up with
thiago vicente an*
gotta be good to be lucky and lucky to be good
Not lucky bro, there time just came. To all producers keep working, and this will happen.
KWTS "their time just came" aka they got lucky
kanye's production style is such big influence
Chicago's blowin up
you a dumb bitch , have you ever heard old school kanye? sounds exactly like it , they even said it was inspired by kanye
Reneiloé RZA's style. Kanye got his style from RZA.
how nigga? explain ? aint nobody wanna give kanye no credit , no disrespect to RZA but kanye a legend in his own regard so you better put some respek on kanye name boi
Frank White I never disrespected Kanye, I just stated a fact. RZA essentially pioneered the production style of slowing down/speeding up and chopping around soul samples. Kanye has even said his production style was heavily influenced by the RZA.
"You don't need any plugins" Just a choir, live bass and an organ.
we all see that izotope ozone 5 on the master bus tho lol
@@marcito12345 i dont blame them, izotope is friggin awesome
@@maximusvice agreed that shit is insane
Mr.N00B ² coulda been the project file from the engineer
Amazing. It's almost like you need talent to make good music. who wouldve thought
4:44 fuuck that piano is so good, such a shame it didn't make the final song.
Thanks for bringing a new sound to hip hop
Keep helping us do that too Game!
New? really nigga.
Busy Works Beats .TV sup game
New sound? Kanye, Dilla, and Madlib popularized gospel sampling over a decade ago.
Busy Works Beats .TV could u show to how to make a beat kinda like this
this track is so underrated being a producer myself and seeing how many hands were in this beat makes it 1000x better there was a lot of work that went into this ... these dude got talent ..you will never be able to recreate this shit ... EVERYTHING is original ..wow.
I love how GENIUS actually gives depth music production coverage, Not just News like COMEPLEX
But it's true, you dont need fancy things to make good music. It really has to come from a good ear and your heart bruh real talk
I agree but I also disagree. Having great plugins, recording equipment (class a converters, good mics etc.), samples definitely makes your music sound higher quality, which is important. Not in every genre or situation or for every track but it definitely helps.
oh yeah for sure, but look at loop station beatboxers. Some of them use effects but its still nothing but the sound they make, and its incredible.
*opens GarageBand*
@@hofi56 it's just additional at the end of the day, Using Cakewalk and free plug-ins can go a long way, however any software is really free if you know where to look
that's it, im converting to ableton. I'm sold (been using reason)
please the making of feel no ways!
check out Vox's video on it.
VisualsFromMark vox or did you mean the nerd writer
drake GOAT yeaaaapp please
that beat is so fucking dope. please do this
Yesssss
no plug-ins. just live instruments and built in sounds. and they still made a 🔥beat! that's talent right there!
"that's steeewwwpid! stew-pid... she can sing..."
-Legend
The 3:48 part was dope af that could've been the whole beat tbh
Why didn't that piano part make it into the final mix????
Jesus.
Jay Hooper maybe they felt that it over complicated the section.
Props to these guys making this. I honestly never knew what the choir was saying until now.
If 4:44 was put into the actual song it would be 10x more lit than it already is
Like as a 10 second outro to fade out. It would have been brilliant
that sound is right up chance's alley, can't believe it didn't make it
There's so many nerdy looking white dudes behind so many major hip hop tracks.. it always catches me off guard I'm not gonna lie 😂
Ever heard of scott storch
Damn i dont know who did the mixing on coloring book but they fucked up. Even on this studio video you can hear all the instruments better than in the final mix.
exactly!
if it were left completely instrumental, it'd probably sound like this. thing is, vocals take up so much of the frequency spectrum that if you want them to be the focus, you have to push back most everything else.
Listen for instance to the snare and hihats, the complete treble is fucked up, the percussions arent even audible, most of the middle part got lost. If you compare this to how acid rap was mastered you hear the difference. Coloring Book is a great, great album, but awfully mastered.
The social experiment
well, I did a comparison between each album, even with audio visualizations, for the funzies, and the mastering isn't really that different, especially taking into consideration instrumentation variation. again, for this track the vocals take precedence, and when comparing the dynamics of the melodic bits to the drums, it actually isn't too different from what's in this video. for instance, the tambourine shaker thing is only a bit quieter, but it's still completely audible, far off from not audible like you're saying.
Does anyone else think that the production playing here is much clearer than the actual final mix of this song? To me, the final mix of "No Problem" is extremely murky.
Sis because your hearing the stems as opposed to the mp3 in your phone. even when just filmed with a good sound system, which these dudes have, Stems will always sound better.
'stems will always sound better' not if the song was mastered by someone good
Yeah, there wasn't a lot of clarity in the finished product. Maybe, that's where the two years in the game shows up. Still great writing, or i guess hiring of a lot of dope musicians.
@Barney - i agree
^found the deluded audiophile
They should've kept that piano part💯💯
HoopLyfe agree 100%
Beautiful
Simplicity but complex creativity.They are so talented.
The soul singers in the back are so clean 🔥. The way they cut that was perfect.
PLEASE MAKE MORE PRODUCER VIDEOS!!
Am I the only one who is pissed that Andre 3000 was taken off of the track
Daniel Williams Chance and the fans really missed out on that front
Daniel Williams lmfao would have preferred him to Wayne xD that nigga need to put the lean down.
cyrvsjacob yeah it should be
Wayne been killing feats bruh idk what you talking about except for no frauds it was whatever
They were only thinking about putting him on the track , he was never on the track in the first place
I'm enjoying "The making of" series I feel like producers don't get enough credit. Plus this is super interesting since I have zero knowledge about any of this stuff
this dude really smokin a blunt right now
Gabriel Geneblazo i think its a cigarette
joint fosho
you know its a blunt because of the lighter.. im a smoker and have only ever seen those lighters used to smoke weed... i know, i know, a lighter is a lighter, buut, i only see pot smokers use those lighters
That's def a J these boys look like they don't fuck with cigs
You could tell me these were the Chainsmokers and I wouldn't bat an eye.
Weird, 'cause The Chainsmokers are trash.
😂 think they’re better them tho
YOOO I'm gonna need that piano version to be released! That shit sounded dope as hell!
4:44 I wish the piano layer made it in the original song. It's actually so good!
This is one of my favorite beats of all time. So dope to hear it de-constructed
I'm a producer and I honestly think these are the best segments that you guys have. Keep doing these!
The fact that these dudes don’t use samples or plugins puts them on a different level 💯
i'm so glad this amazing piece of art didn't go to waste
Man I'm MAD AF Andre couldn't make an appearance on this joint or CB in general. He was one of the first features that Chance announced for CB.
genius is quickly becoming every hiphop heads favorite channel
I love it when producers deconstruct the beats!
Honestly, I usually bash people for judging Chance's music only based on this one song they've heard, but it's a damn good hit single and a dope middle finger to them lame ass labels.
I AINT NEVER CAME SO FAST
Fallnite yep
Fallnite i have.
thats what she said
-Michael Gary scott
Pause my boi
S
I had no idea that brasstracks produced it lol. No wonder this song was extra lit
No Problem will forever be my favorite song, I plan on showing it to my children.
the piano solo would have been dope on the actual song
One of my favorite genius series, keep it up my guy(s)
yeah you don't need expensive equipment to be a producer, just a 600 dollar bass a choir and a bunch of talented musician friends. easy
the majority of rap songs right now use sub or synth bass.. and they did say that this was inspired by old kanye beats which were mostly sample driven. anyone can cut up a sample.
yeah i get that but what makes the song they made great is all of the live instrumentation, and considering it's their only popular song afaik it's not really cool of them to say "you don't need expensive equipment" as if they made it on a modest budget
$600 is not exceptionally expensive for a 5 string bass. they could have spent thousands but it was still a hit, that's what they're saying. They also could have used a digital bass and it might have worked just as well. If you want to make music that captures this aura then cut up some soul samples and put 808s or sampled drums under them. That's all just blaze/kanye/the heatmakers did most of the early 2000s. Then maybe eventually you'll have the money or connections to use all the live instruments and musicians you want. I doubt they had all the equipment and connections they wanted when they first started. You gotta start somewhere
It is a modest budget compared to modern production. Most songs you hear on the radio will be recorded with a $10k bass guitar rig
nano Thats how you become succesful in music. You socialize with people of all kinds within the craft so they will play their 600$ bass or organ or whatever for a sixpack and then you socialize with other ppl who will jump on your shit
That Choir was Amazing...that and the organ made the beat....DOPE
Kind of crazy how they pretty much created the song yet it looks like they live in a small house and then chance is blowing up. So Ironic
im sure they're getting some money and recognition for it, but of course not as much as chance
Montavi Kidd seeing as they spend most of the money they get on equipment, not surprising
Montavi Kidd that's not what irony means
Montavi Kidd It takes about 9 months to a year to get a royalty check,but them dudes look like they are hella struggling.
Love that you guys are making more deconstructed videos.
How tf do ppl casually get a choir
Being an established musical act probably has something to do with it.
he said it was just 4 people multiplied a few times
Yeah you can use only 4 people and stack their voices on top of each other to give off that choir effect
@@Andynonymous_music But they weren't established.
YOU DONT WANT ZERO PROBLEMS BIG FELLA 😇😇😇
they want at least one problem since they don't want zero
I've always thought of plugins as miniature music assistants. so if you have a network of people who can play instruments, help you mix tracks, solve musical issues for you etc, then plugins become less necessary. however I think for people who don't have that network, plugins are pretty important
So awesome and interesting. I was convinced up until now that that was a pitched sample they were using in the background! Now, having seen them deconstruct and rebuild the entire track, I'm even more a fan of it than I was already
"All the words in my mouth are righteous" is all I here when listening to the song now
This raw mix is 500% better than the final mix.
ROJAS for his production on Look At Me NEXT!!!
then other songs by X that have good beats like MANIKIN and Very Rare Forever (by x)
that's a simple track...
Below 0 look at me is a simple track
Below 0 broooo I fucking love very rare forever free style it's a banger i need a full version
I'm glad I watched this video. This song definitely deserved its Grammy because it's one of the best produced tracks I've ever heard.
respects for diy-like production
what a sound!
GAWD that choir is damn near tearjerking
This is so inspirational, especially for aspiring producers.
Yo that piano sample would have been SICK
the guy with the curly hair speaks like he is high
judging by the fat zoot, i'd guess he is
Nestor Kon look like it too
Nestor Kon They got that "stoner surfer white dude" look, they must be fun to make music with and have philosophical conversations lol.
Sam guy lol thats what i was thinking
5:06 He's lit
Saw these dudes live in Columbus in 2016 opening for Jack Garratt, because I had been following them for awhile. Super stoked to see how they've grown into such respected producers, and for their own group's music as well. They were super chill dudes too. Love you guys!
Of course you don't need to buy any plugins if you have musicians who play in stuff for you, but most people don't have this possibility
great music anyway
very true strat, if you dont have the talented friends that can play the stuff in for you,
you sort of do rely on plugins ala Kontakt
samples > plugins == opinion
Trainwhrek samples = plugins == opinion
Go find musicians then
Love it! I was search for the sample of the track, found this clip and learned so much more
These are amazing keep them coming
loving these deconstructed vids. keep em coming
Loving this series, keep it up.
Would love to see one of Lido's songs deconstructed!
i love how different the song is from other raps
no plugin ok, good idea. But i don't have a bassist, an organist, a pianist, singers and other very talented persons to create music..
then get plugins. duh
actually you don't even need plugins use your own talent bruh
This is awesome, pls do more deconstructions
shoutout my ableton users! Also that's nice to hear about plug-ins. makes me feel better haha
now i can always hear the little details everytime this comes on
That piano part was sick af tho🔥
i listened to the instrumental for this song, its crazy. its not just some basic beat on repeat like a lot of rap songs nowadays
The gospel sample made this song so addictive
The amount of dedication and effort going into this song is why it's a hit. Props to brasstracks, your music rocks!
These two are talented af
Didn't even know Brasstracks produced that song, was following them for two years but totally missed that.
I believe this to be the best segment you have on this channel, but that's just me from my love of production perspective.
The beat was the part that really got me hooked to this song
These homies really snapped on this
These guys are beasts, just watch their rhythm roulette
Watching these beat production videos make me love and appreciate songs so much more
Think you get Andre 3000
Gets 2 chainz and lil Wayne
If chance wasn't there this would be a horror story
this is probably one of my favorite videos of all time
yoooo, that piano piece !! should have kept it for atleast the outro
they look so fucking chill. they just literally smoke weed all day and play around with beats. good for them man
Damn they were going have Andre on here. Would have been lit.
They should release the instrumental part with that piano in it, that was dope as fuck.
Of ALL the songs to remix this one hasn't got one. Why????
This has to be my favorite Deconstructed video
making music for 2 years and already making grammy-winning music??? damn
abbyooooo creating music for 2 years but they were already trained Muscians. Nobody who started music 2 years ago is gonna be recording choirs for a track 😂
brasstracks! love these guys. hope they continue to make fresh//innovative beats.
Finally another deconstructed
I wish they would’ve recorded a version where it’s just the chorus.
I've personally been waiting for this video to come out forever lol this songs so unique
Wow this is gold.
3:28 I felt happy when I heard
"you don't have to buy any plugins to be a producer, that shit's stupid" yeah
This makes me like this song way better
