Cheers
wow thanks for simplifying buddy👍
Thank you
Thank you!
My guy breaks down the theory to the point of explaining the numbering system/scale degrees/how chord progressions work in general, instead of just assuming that people know their theory (when a lot of people didn't have the privilege to be taught it). You my brother have earned my respect, keep it up 💪🏾
Thanks bro!
The vocals make me laugh everytime, such a good video, thank you
Lol thanks.
Bruh yes simplicity at its finest. I loved this video, more please
Thanks man! Loving the feedback.

😂😱😂
Had me rolling lmao

Ran straight to the comments. 😂😂

“I call that the 4-6-5, I might be calling it the wrong thing but I DONT CARE. I’m calling it the 4-6-5” 💀 🙌🙌 love it!
Best music teacher I ever had I just learned something in 5 mins
Thank you!
LMFAOOOOO you can tell he has vocals but his singing had me🤣🤣🤣
You can hear my mans got a good voice but when he’s just fooling around his vocals got me rollin 😂 thanks so much for this Brutha!
Hahahaha thanks bro! Glad to help
Bro. The falsetto is the greatest sound ive ever heard.!!!
😂😂
@@CarletonM i showed up for the chords. I came back for the singing! lol
You caught my heart can’t stop listening to you sing and play
You don't know what you just done for me bruh. Thank you!! Please keep em coming
Will do! Glad I could help. Let me know what else you would like to see if you think of anything.
You should write your own songs bro. Mad talented
That would be hilarious! 😂😂
Carleton Maybell nah you should frl...maybe u won’t have to sing it but u should write your own songs
I came here because I wanted to start composing more R&B inspired music and this video helped a lot. I also do believe what you're explaining is the Lydian mode. It is the fourth mode of the major scale. It sounds really nice and uplifting. Thank you for the cool video!
Thanks for sharing that info. I also believe that this is the lydian mode.
Everytime he said "Key of C" man...... I be getting hungry here...........
This comment is so underrated 😂😂
😂😂😂
lfmao .. damm you !
hahahah ahahah ahahahah
DED 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I didn't get it tho
THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN LOOKIN FOR. YES!!! PLEASE KEEP MAKING VIDEOS LIKE THIS MY BROTHER
this is amazingg!!! ive been playing around with piano for years and years, by learning the chords to songs, but i havent understood any of the music theory behind what im doing. knowing these progressions and how they relate to the key that theyre in by numbers is so frickin transformative. Thank you for sharing (:
So glad to hear it! I’m going to be releasing a piano course VERY soon that I think you’ll enjoy. I break down a lot more chord progressions in it :) Stay tuned.
Thanks man I'm disabled ex bassist from the 60s+70s I have Lou Gehrig's disease and miss playing music thanks to you my man I'm back into it .deepest respect to you .George
the voice is angelic
Haha thank you!
I've watched 4b rnb chord progression tutorials today and yours was the best. thank you.
All my producers and beat makers. If you like these chords I recommend checking out my MIDI pack at carletonmaybell.com. Listen to the beats I made with the pack and let me know what you think! Thanks for your support 💯💯
Love the tutorial bro 💪
Hello Carleton, I have a question, some of these progressions dont include the tonic of the key, ie the 1 chord, so how would someone identify or use the key of the song if the chord progression doesnt highlight the I chord, like in a I, V progression?
What is the third progression? (Name of the song)
Carleton Maybell Hey bro, I like these videos, make more videos like this. I purchased your midi pack as well trueprogressions Vol. 1 thanks 🙏🏾
When you talk about the number system are you referring to the notes on a scale? And when you were talking about how most people don't call the 8th note number 8 but number one, Would that mean that a new octave started, because there are only 7 letters in the musical alphabet? Idk I'm new to music stuff
They call him the song bird of our generation.
😂😂
Stepbrothers!!
You know what I'm sayin'?
“And i remember all the things that I’ve been through🥺” here for it yes 😩👏🏽😂
Anybody else want him to go off on the first progression after he start freestylin
I wanted him to shut the hell up and let me hear the chord progression
I was always afraid to play in any key but Cmaj7 and never thought about moving fingers until i saw this. Been self-training training so hearing the notes makes sense how these tones I now here make sense. R&B is hard enough but thanks for keeping it super simple because in the end, it's basic chords that make the song. Added chords like 9ths and 13ths and all that is only for the snobs who think they way they sound, is just to sound good. . Thanks again man for this, you opened up a new milestone of music for me and I tried this progression in different progressions... smooth!!
As someone who was never taught chords this is easy to understand bless thank you
A lot of people do videos to show you how smart THEY are. I can appreciate a video that uses plain language. Good work.
And now we feel epic. So simple, easy to learn
American Got Talent needs you!
He's...soooooPROOOOOOO
The way you explain the mechanics and motives behind these chords is so clear and easy to understand, I think you could easily cater to the producer/beatmaker community by posting up more of these tutorials where you break it down more generally like in this video vs one song. Your insights are truly amazing and easily to master yourself! Please keep it up! Peace from amsterdam!
Thank you! Im glad I can help you and others! 💯
Yo u really got me when u would play the progression the second time and sing a different song that just make these progressions so much better u can do more than 1 song on 1 progression
3 years later- this was great! Thanks
Glad it helped! Thanks for leaving a comment 👍🏾
Don’t sleep he’s beast on guitar just as much as he is on keys. Glad your still playing ✊🏾
OH SNAP JAMES!? Thanks bro! Appreciate it. 💯 Hope all is well with you man.
Love love love the singing...:))... Thank you for the laughter!! 3'21
LOL glad you enjoyed it
when u started singing with the chords new this was straight thanks dude
Been playing piano longer than I want to admit, but have been stuck in a "pop" environment of 1, 4, 5 chord progressions ad-nausea.... this is a nice set of progressions to add to my repetoire. Thank you! Easy to follow along. Appreciate it.
Thanks so much for making this! Love that you sprinkle a bit of theory in there while keeping it clean and simple 💝
LyricWulf AAAYYYEEEE
Best piano tutorial ever, glad i found someone that i actually wanna watch😂
Wow, thanks!
This man low key just showed us how to come up with song lyrics!!! 😳
Yes! I feel the same way. I always watch jazz piano videos and I feel like an idiot because I can’t figure out what they’re talking about. And I have a masters in piano lol! I really liked this video please make more of them. It was really helpful.
Haha thanks! I’ll definitely make more like this one soon. 👍🏾
Bro thank you for keeping this simple, the way you broke this down got me playing my first chord progression with the inversions it sounds beautiful. Much love
I LOVED this video!!! I've been waiting on a video like this. And the singing really helped me put the chords into context. Please do more and thank you for sharing your God given talent. It was right on time!!
Thank you so much bro, please keep doing videos like this
Will do!
I have never laughed at an instructional video 🤣
Vocals on point
Honestly the singing helped. It gave examples on how these chords can be used on spot, and thats great. I found this video very informative. Subbed.
Thank you!
Great teacher ..... No nice smooth voice. Wow..thanks. More please.
when you're trying to concentrate on the piano, but the vocals just-
Best r&b piano vid i have seen, well done bro!! ❤️
Officially my favorite piano instructor. Mans can sing too
This was helpful for understanding . You are a good teacher
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
The way you mockingly played multiple hit songs with these progressions😂😂
3:38 “I might be calling it the wrong thing, but u don’t care” 😂
He sounded like Kevin hart lmfaoooo
“And it sounds good” especially loolll
I need these. Please keep them coming
Will do. Thank you!
Thank you for the simplicity 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Mannn this video thought me how to play I’m thankful 🙏🏾 great video I keep coming right back yo it 🫡
Your videos are very informative 👌🏿 👏🏿 🤟🏿, and exciting 😅😅 at the same time.
Great info bro !!!!!! The delivery was was on point!!!!
Bruh instantly loved this tutorial because of the lil baby one being first. Thanks for making this relatable lol
You make the best TH-cam videos.Appreciate you!
Thank you!
Awesome tutorial but your voice is just amazing. Congratulations for that voice
Lol thank you
@@CarletonM yeah bro
@@CarletonM can you make a video on how to make a piano Melody on FL studio mobile thanks
Better than those singer try to make tutorial look complicated. This tutorial is all we need, i need moreeee
I love you man. I just found you and I love you! Thank you so much for this!
This changed my music IQ forever bro. Your Legendary
Bro PLEASE do more of these
Thank you!! Simple! Lol! Keep singing 🎶 ♥
Yes, 1st inversion is awesome
Brilliant Sir!!!!!!! Thanks. More please
More to come!
your singing actually makes this video so lit 😅❤️
Lol thank you!
I would also love to see you try out ‘music theory aid’ audio plugin scaler and the standalone ‘every possible scale mapped to the white keys’ midi processing app - autotonic. Having a experienced piano player use those ‘noob’ tools would be invaluable on TH-cam, there’s not many, if not none who did that. Please consider this :)
Thanks for that! Appreciate it!
Best video I’ve seen in 2019
I love you already. I am a beginner and you broke this down so well for a sister. Peace and Love 🙏❤
Man you be having me rolling lol. But you do lay it out for us to play it out 🙌🏾💯
Thank you for keeping things simple. These chords do make it easy to sing.
You're very welcome!
Better then some of the stuff people try to teach on TH-cam
I'm impressed, you make it easy!
NOW I FINALLY UNDERSTAND PROGRESSION AND INVERSIONS!!! THANK YOU
love the tutorial, especially the singing bits lol. thanks for these chords
only thing is the third progression had me a lil confused when you mentioned the "seven chord"
kept saying IVmaj7-V-vi-seven chord-I and when you say "seven chord" i think of vii^o which would be bdf but you playing the V so i ended up writing this in my notes
IVmaj7-V-vi-V(with third in bass)-I
could be just me misinterpreting what you meant but i'll leave this just in case anyone else is confused like me
Well its just super common to substitute the 5major for the 7diminished chord.
Thank you my brother I like it when you keep it simple i will keep watching your videos and god bless you amen
Much appreciated!!
Straight to the point, great knowledge. Thank you for the quality content !
On the 2nd chord I got confused for a little while, when he says back to your 1st he doesn't mean 1st chord but 4th obviously, and the 4th is Major, not minor like he says once. I thought a missed part of the explanation for a little while. Hope this helps everyone.
Sorry about that. I try my hardest to say everything correctly but it gets hard lol
Very informative thx 🙏🏽
Did this and played around with some passing chords and made a bunch of different songs.
From all tutorials out there, this one is my favorite, he explained not just in a particular base key, this tutorial can be easily implemented to any key! Subscribed bro, keep it up!
This was really really helpful!! Thanks for keeping it understandable.
I dont know how i ended here but...i liked ver very much your vid.
WON a new subscriber...BLESS Bro 🙏🏾!!!
You explain things well! Thanks.
😂😂😂 the singing! and singing the wrong lyrics made me laugh, and thanks for the lesson✨❤️
Bro I’m in a process of writing music I definitely will use some of these progressions
Very Simple and Easily understood. Simplicity is Genius expressing beautifully thank you
Aye bruh you cold with it I appreciate everything you taught me bruh you make being self taught a lot easier keep it up!
Always looking forward to your videos😭😭❤
I appreciate it!
This was the best video I came across to!!
This is so helpful. You always inspire to make new beats!
Great job on the video! Simplistic yet informative and your able to build the technique without focusing on theory. The singing helps imagine what songs fit the progression. A+
Awesome, thank you!
Wow this was so helpful mostly because I play by ear and this was exactly what I needed thank you! I subscribed 🙏🏽🖤🎹
Nice! Thanks Fam, and God Bless.
