"There are hunters and gatherers. I'm a hunter."
_goes to gather records_
He means that he is a hunter in terms of looking for the perfect sample, like when you go and hunt looking for the thickest deer but you also gather some other ones you've already killed for their meat because that is still good meat
@@ChainsTheChef888 no shit sherlock
@@Alva2k aye come on cuh you didn’t have to do him like that 💀💀
Technically he was hunting and gathering at the same time tho if you think about it hah
nah he's on the HUNT for THE record you feel
If Al ascended to the galactic plates tomorrow he would be praised like dilla. Appreciate this legend while he is here folks
Facts let's just give him his flowers though
nobody will ever be like Dilla...Alchemist still very below...its impossible to reach Dilla's level because Dilla is a phenomenom. no matter how hard you try, you won't ever reach the same feel that he was made of...its way different.
@@UCiWrMgES50tlUhV3l6NqjNA ALC still very below ? You bugging. Both are genuises in this thing we call Rap. Dilla got a whole lot more praise after passing. All of sudden it was Dilla this Dilla that. Don't recall many people being on his nuts while he was still here.
@@madvlad7347 Facts.
MAD VLAD you were never in Detroit, from 1994 through 2006.
Us heads would buy whole albums if he had an interlude on it.
alchemist is one of the illest producers keeping the boom bap sound alive
Maaan boom bap has so much soul
It's all about the boom bap
I don't take that away from his music. His sound to me is totally different.
I think he’s way beyond that already
Anyone who gets pissed off about being tired because they want to keep working is someone who is going to be successful. Rethinking life... 😂
Or someone that's gonna die young of a heart attack
Not on Al’s level but I stay up working on a beat knowing my ass was going to be kicked at work the next day, and I just do it for fun.

This was mad therapeutic
Word.
Church.
For real!!!!!!
it really was, one of the best in the game, much respect for this man
Great composer!
This video is my pre-game before I go in on making beats for the day.
Facts. Forever inspired by Al the Goat.
I agree on god tho
love that
love
Me too!
“We hold on to things that made us great, it can stunt our growth” damn this dude has wisdom
Facts.
A single sentence but a lot to take in
Alchemist, Mac Miller, J Cole and JDilla all inspired me to produce. Much Respect! Thank you alchemist
Alchemist probably got so much unreleased prodigy tracks
MrPyrex609 you know it
There's one called Passion that I hope drops so bad. If you look up the video of Alchemist playing beats for Rick Ross, you can hear it in the very last seconds of the video when the God Forgives I Don't album cover pops up.

M. Bingham for real and Sean P
M. Bingham I'd love to hear it if he does
this was shot beautifully
word up
Yeh it was well done. Dope production.
Love it
for real.

"when i get tired, i get mad"
"I wish i could Just never sleep"
I feel that so much
💯
Fuck that I need sleep 😂
Hahahahah
"Did you make the track? Or did the track make you?"
Damn. I felt that.
same here yo
That's the big mystery
This is a powerfully spoken monologue, cut together like this. The cutting-together of his chance (or interview-conjured) remarks is like the cutting together of samples -- wasn't all said in the same moment, but belonged together
why do i actually love it when people monologue about the video in the comments lol
That's crazy cause the last album I purchased had a naked woman on it
🔥 🔥🔥
Always fire. Lol. No doubt.
Was it you?
he was spot on about that!
was it kanye's album?
its your calling brother :)
I actually met alchemist before about ten years ago this guy is humble in kool, in can hold a convo. Love in respect to my favorite producer on the planet.
"We never find it, but that's the whole idea, you keep looking"
Like Einstein searching for the answers of life. Every time he found a revelation it created more holes to search in, an infinite trail
"Being safe is wack....being safe is corny"
💪
i wonder if he backs up his beats often, prob not huh
timestamp?
Curtis Bowden 5:50
I just dropped a beat on my channel that could be a total hit! Check it:
th-cam.com/video/RXzfqrjWpOk/w-d-xo.html❤️
Pure dopeness!!! @Alchemist, can we the people, get a Mass Appeal - Rhythm Roulette episode?
that be dope
We need an Alc podcast... just turn a camera on in his studio there... periscope even or TH-cam LIVE once a week for the kids!!! 👍🏻
a podcast would be mad dope!
The Alchemist > Mass Appeal .. but I'm still gonna hope & pray that we do get a rhythm roulette with our boy Al sooner than later. Also I feel like alchemist on mass appeals rhythm roulette would be the absolute longest video they'd ever do
This is 'his' Rhythm Roulette.
I could watch ALC in the lab 10 years straight with no food , just water and a lighter.
😂
quarantine happened and Al said ok i’m just gonna produce insane amounts of insanely dope music, producer of the year no competition
Dude I never knew Alcemist was the one that made that Best for jadakiss song..duuuude that shit was fire ..still is..super nostalgic
Bro idk if it was in the music video played on MTV or BET or an actual disc jockey on the radio saying who produced it, but thats how i knew way back when. I even have a mixtape i made back in 2001/2002 with the song title and "(Produced by The Alchemist)" in parentheses on the liner notes that I wrote. I didnt have the internet during that time nor did I own the Jadakiss CD but I somehow knew who produced it.
Life before the internet became a necessity.
I placed this video into my "Wisdom" playlist on TH-cam because that's what this entire video contained. THIS is how you make an inspirational video. If you've ever created a beat, ALC's words unquestionably resonated with you.
i love this. factual
Facts.
Al still one of the few greats left keeping it hip hop.
"there's nothing worse than an overcooked meal" - the food villain
RIP
"nothing worse than an overcooked meal"
Disgusting 😂
Yup. Raw meal.
Al is my hero and is 100% the GOAT. everybody's pal
Props to the audio/video engineer/producer (probably 1-2 guys) who mixed this very well. Really well done.
Alchemist talking with the beats at the background was like its a track about to drop
One of the best Hip Hop producers in the world.
Did you make the track or did the track make you?....as a producer that's real deep. Salute ALC.
what does that even mean
rolaz productions I shed real tears when I heard that
@@ARE_YOU_SICK_OF_YT_CENSORSHIP actually is referring to being able to recreate your ideas from your mind , and not getting driven by other sounds or mistake melodies by your daw... I think...
50/50
J C I see it more like if the track you just made make up or change something inside you, if it became part of you.
how on earth could there be a dislike on this video....how sway?
MrAmato1987 people will click dislike just to dislike..trolls
True knocking
MrAmato1987 some videos should just come with the dislike button disabled.
Everytime i see or hear ''HOW SWAY?'' i crack the fuck up! Hahahahaha
They just unhappy
This guy DOOM and Knx are what set me off to make beats, but of all of them Al has the best flow. He knows exactly what he wants and exactly how to do it, and he's done it in such a way that he never gets tired of it. Look in from the outside it seems like he ignores reality to escape into his own world, maybe with friends, maybe not, and he has the equivalent to shower thoughts and uses that to cook up what he does. He's less about the final product and more about the creation, which is something a lot of prods don't have (I included). His dedication to what he does is why I admire him and his flow so much.
well said
ALC doesn’t need a record, he IS the record. Everything he and Hav creates is 🔥
G.O.A.T
Khronos Beats my favorite anyway!
Khronos Beats so tired of hearing people being called goat's... every one is the greatest of all time to someone...
(Not disagreeing about Alchemist though haha he is FUCKING amazing)
Primo the goat. Al #2
No Doubt! My Top 5!!!! no question
Israeli Salad is one of the best beat tapes I've ever heard...classic material.
check out digi hendrix vs aesop rock rockstargimmedatbazookatooth remix album.. def got similar vibes on the album
retarded alligator was better tbh
I think Dilla is an avg producer at best. Is there something wrong w me?
@@viktorious11able because you have no soul
Troy uk Nah, that was the magic. Nothing to overthink. Same as Alc. Simple, but full of heart. Not over produced. Great ear for music.
I still get goosebumps everytime he starts playing his old beats, he really took it all the way back with that Dialated Peoples song from Nba Street Vol. 2. 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dude is a outright legend.
So beautiful to hear him give a deeper perspective on his process. I’ve seen many interviews of him and he seems quite down to earth and humble. Always lets the artist he’s working with talk more. Thank you so much for this!
You can tell he still sad over prodigy's death stay strong alchemist💯💯
Feel like ALC lost part of him now that prodigy is gone. One of the best producer/ rapper duos that ever was.
No Evidence and Alchemist is a match made in Heaven.
His drums are so crispy bro
The way Al speaks about his craft is beautiful
Inspiration ✔
Time to make some beats
gorgeous video. his lab looks comfy af
I have this hip hop lab book BACK TO THE LAB and his studio is featured, definitely the creme de la creme right there in simplicity and minimalist style. So many labs tend to be cluttered mess
what a masterpiece
The most underrated underappreciated hip hop producers of all time.
4:34 Knxwledge WE GOT HIM GUYS!
And samiyam as well
amen
There are no words that can describe how this video touched me. Wish I could just spend 1 week with this genius in the studio...just watching and learning.
ALC is hands down my favorite producers! Him linking up with Mobb Deep was 🔥‼️ Havoc is right up there with him plus he has the lyrics and flow!
Alchemist thought process is how my brain functions as a producer truly inspiring
damn his studio is so fucking nice, the vibes are unreal
This is why ALC still got the sauce. See where Kanye lost it, he didn't realize that he was just a conduit... he wanted all the glory. Everything is energy, we just channel it
Nah kanye got with kim. Thats where it began
Beautiful 👌 ☝ 👍
Yep
@jaketrentsjaketrents fuck up bitch
kanye never lost it lol
6:01 when Terry kicks in, i feel like i can die happy. It makes me feel like I've seen it all, no doubt one of the best instrumentals I've ever heard
The last track giving me chills
fav ALC beats..
360 waves
amen
Scottie pippen
tomorrow
cant complain
Billy Johnson Prodigy produced Can’t Complain
Book of rhymes
Alchemist was a fool for We Gon Make it!!!!
The way he speaks on this topic shows he is TRUELY a passionate producer. He could give two fucks about money. He just loves the process
He gives the same energy as his beats. He is his music
Holy fuckin shit , i had to pause this mid video just to say this is mutha fuckin great ass got damn video. Al droppin knowledge but also speaking to my soul . The production and video footage is all well capture and put together. Thank you for this.
Alchemist...the man that made me give up beat making after I heard " My Way " by Nas...I'm back at it now doe y'all...never give up your passion !!!
LoDaKid Nas "my way" is an incredible record. Nas and alchemist are incredible together. They should of did a collab album.
Check out my beats
Legendary beat idk why Nas chooses Salaam Remi as his producer when he can get AlC or any other hot producers in the game
LoDaKid
TRUTH INDEED NOBLE ✊🏽🇲🇦
@@chris45627 because made you look is a classic that's why! and Salaam is a legendary producer just like Al!
That terry beat is one of the most beautiful beats in hip hop, it almost makes me tear up
4:47 literally greatest beat i ever heard lmfao
RIP Prodigy
I think Alchemist was his favorite!
Pure inspiration!!
ALC vibe alwayz so chill...his music always motivates me
he words his thoughts in such a great way its so refreshing.
This got my creative juices flowing again. Thanks Alchemist
When you see those floppy disks you know he been producing for long time 👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Peace and props to Alchemist... fire beats...that last beat on this video is dope af
4:50 they feel it, i feel it, job done!
Alchemist is probably my favorite producer of all time
I love this, I come back to this ever so often for inspiration. Al's a pure producer.
I do this all the time from time to time, there's just something about that vibe that this video brings. Sometimes on a daily you loose that beatmaking lifestyle vibe and you feel pretty miserable. I think it's all about that 90's-20's beat making vibe - no internet, no social media or just barely getting in touch with the internet and all that. Maybe that's nostalgia, but fuck I just like to vibe and picture windows 98, those old computers and all that vibe, mixed with jazz and careless living. Things ain't the same, but in the studio - you can go back, freeze, go into the unknown or just simply chill. Time in the studio is overrated term. There is no time and if you can make time disappear in the studio then damn, you live forever. At least that's how it is, that's how I feel it. Beat making keeps you young, you just have to keep pushing when everybody around you is growing up and suddenly not vibing with you. Because the truth is that it was always you and the machine - drum machine, laptop or whatever. That's your best friend and your one and only true love. Sounds clique, but whatever lol, I've been making beats for a while and after a while you just realise damn I've been doing same shit for years lol. Idk, there's just that struggle of growing up, but maybe it's good to feel this way. Because every time I drop a fire beat I get that same feeling I had when I just started, sometimes it just takes more time to get to that place, but that feeling is the shit. You know what I'm talking about xD
I watch this every morning for inspiration
Always loved his production. Gritty,hip hop and inspiring
I wish I could show up 6.30 in the morning.
Ha ha ha
it's because of doing what you LOVE. I bet he's happy when he opens his eyes and thinks about the next time he hits those pads (if depression doesnt hit my ass it's like that for me) .... On weekdays where i gotta get to my 9-5 EARLY, i can't get up, in the weekend i jump out of bed as soon as i wake up just to cook a beat or record something/write
I bet you don't got a job that you LOVE more than your free time
Man I remember watching this video when I just started out making beats, I didn't know what drum kits are but this video inspired me 🔥🔥🔥
I remember when I first got mpc, I bought drum kits from mpc site lol, overpriced and still sounded like shit, haven't really used them much. I stick with few sounds and to be honest default sounds and instruments is the best stuff
I’ve revisited this video more times than I can count. Work of art
Whenever I need an extra boost of inspiration I come back to this video. Thank you AL
You never find that right hit i mean you already been doing those unique badass sounds always great produce sounding no matter what its infinite 💜
What a great artist! He focus on the inside, focussing on the outside is unhealthy. Society is like a sock, the seam is on the inside against my foot and the nice soft side is outside to the world. That`s that sock wisdom yo.
One of the greatest to ever do it. A true legend, helping keep real hip hop where it needs to be!
damn thats so good. so many classics in there. great inspiration!
Yo man I've been watching Alchemist and Marco Polo videos on how they make beats.....what I love about them is they don't hide anything to us....they don't keep the knowledge for themselves....that's what make the Real GOATS🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤞🤞
6:07 That Terry beat is one of the best shits ever made. We need an Alchemist X Doom project already
RIP DOOM
Damn bro. RIP DOOM seriously
@@slim5481 sad shit is he was already gone when I commented this!!
@@u7angbe yeah man, I wish we got to know earlier but I get why Jasmine never announced it
@@slim5481 Sad shit
i come back to this video over and over again since it has been released it is such a great inspiration
Thanks for putting this out please we need more videos like that 👌🏽
Wow the people been waiting for an official Alchemist kit! Def will be getting this one.
BIGPUN4EVER got released years ago. I had it in in my teens
Mr M.A that kit wasn't from the Alchemist, all those kits were fakes. This one is his actual sounds, from him.
man i love this. he doesn't tell you "do this drum pattern" it's the most conceptual beat video i've seen and it's the most helpful and inspiring too
💯
This is so inspiring! Thank you!
Always come back to this
This was dope. Something for other music makers to see and pull some insight. Alchemist is a legendary producer
Kylemad01 he said a lot of nothing.
I'd say in the past 5 years ALCs drums have become the best in the game
Dude is sooooo DOPE, Peace to The Alchemist
This videos definitely has a vibe to it, I feel like listening to some alchemist beats while studying.
The beat @1:23 is insane..
Am obsessed with Alan The Chemist. Great video. Not too many of him doing work in the lab online.
RMHersey23 plenty of videos of him and his process
This man is truly blessed to have found work he has great passion for. All the best ALC. BTW I'm loving the Boldy James and gibbs collabs.
this really is amazing to watch.
