🤣😂
Lmaooo
cuz making hip hop beats isnt hard, all he has to do is drag a bunch of shit around at 2x speed, hes not flexing, everyone can just speed up time to make it seem like its easier to make a good beat
It's a voiceover
@@darcsiderOps you go make a beat then
to be good at making beats is experience no doubt. everytime you make beats you get the feel of em and you find your sound and genre. no matter if its bad or good you still learn and that right there is experience. also knowledge is another key as the more you learn, the more you know.
yeah i agree... i dont really agree with saying its easy cause it is totally just however people do it, learning different ways, styles, etc.
if u never made beats ur beats are gonna sound like ass. push thru bruh u gotta make ass in order to learn to make good stuff.
Fax. I started with absolute shit beats but I got better the more I practiced and learned the program
the only way to get experience is through experience

Took me one ken carson tutorial and now im making real shi
I’m still ass 😂
that first beat had me time travelling
bounce was crazy
Music comes from the soul, if your mind gets out of the way it’ll do its thing
bar
i mean anything is easy when you're finally good at it. The hard part is getting there. I appreciate your ethic to just finish the beat no matter what. There's some hidden wisdom there
The thing abt overthinking man I wish I woulda realized that sooner lol. Used to do that a lot n I didn't realize how much time I wasted and how many decent beats I scrapped in the end. Making beats been so much easier (and fun) since I stopped overthinking.
I should do that more often I be stressing about how the beat gonna sound bad or how good it could sound but I should just go with the flow cause some of my best beats I never stressed on how good it could or did sound and went with the flow

bros overthinking about overthinking
Good video g a lot of ppl tend to struggle with making melody in their head come to the piano roll and it’s really cuz overthinking. What bro said yall just gotta have some fun with it and it’ll click easier fr
don't most people usually use loops tho in todays day in age loops are like the common thing to use in songs your favorite artists definitely use loops that make number 1 hits it isn't nesscesarily making beats as loops are already made things for you to use but yeah it makes beats like way faster than normally creating them
@@cartercolson7975 making loops is just sampling in todays music production. Most people don’t care to learn how to make their own Melodie’s and rather put down some drums over a solid idea that’s catchy to the ear. Of course artists that everyone listens to has definitely been sent loops and they may or may have not made a hit song with them. Besides from the loop section of music, and sampling section of music, actually creating something from your own mind and not worrying about “oh this a so and so type beat” making your own Melodie’s allows you to bring your own creativity to the overall production of a beat/song once complete. Everything everyone makes is their own interpretation of the music/sounds they listen to with their own extra ideas in mind. Just understanding how to make Melodie’s that you find enjoyable and that others find enjoyable though will allow you to learn how people make the loops you wanna hear. However, this is my opinion and view of making music. If you’re aiming to make music to try and send music to your fav artist, rather than just trying to make something for yourself and learn something new while being creative it’s also different. I got respect for both areas of music and I genuinely just like to make what comes to my mind. Learning and understanding how to create what I’m hearing in my mind is what makes it so enjoyable to me, but to each their own of course.
@@cartercolson7975 Someone still has to make those loops. In the end is better to make your own instead of scrolling through loops to find a good one. Thats just lazy.
Nothings easy when you first start and nothings hard when you’ve been doing it awhile
that helped alot brother, keep up the good work 🔥
My man is only a kid and is making bangers 🔥🔥🔥
Fire profile picture bro
The key is Have Fun. Not every beat will be a hit.
Thanks Rob you lowkey be my motivation to stay in this shit💯💯
I agree with the overthinking part but making beats is NOT easy keep that in mind
Going with the flow can be very useful to let creativity flow, especially if you are in the zone but its also helpful to take some time and re listen to come up with new ideas, if you just rush though them you end up falling into your comfort zone always and your beats become repetitive and boring.
If you are just trying to grind youtube and release as many decent tracks as you can fine but if you are trying to make something interesting you need to take your time.
I usually have the body of a song in 2 or 3 hours but I spend the next week or so adding to it and changing things, I have made songs in a day and released them the same day before and they turned out good but my favourites are old scraps that I came back to after a while.
Maybe beats are different but this is my thought process for full length songs and it works for me.
another tip, never ever delete something, you might find it ueful in the future. if you dont like something you made, save it and leave it in the backlog, you might come back to it some day.
Mane, when i tell you this video help me alot bro i FINALLY made my first full beat without sampling and using midis.and it actually came out fire. its nothing wrong with sampling and midis but i finally can say i made my own first full beat because i took your advice. i feel so good about myself. this would help alot of people who overthink alot and self judge themselves all the time. its the reason why i could NEVER made a simple chord. smh. ya advice means ALOT! thanks alot mane!
i agree.. the whole song creation process requires no thinking. even writing and mixing its the same mindest. everytime i go with the flow it ends uo better
Legit needed this video, big love my guy
you arent just drawing _anything_ down; *you already understand music theory..* which is why it appears that you arent overthinking but *you are actually doing alot of thinking.*
I'm from Brazil and I spend hours watching your productions, bro, you're excellent
hey, thanks bro. i feel like i'm finally gaining my motivation again to make beats 🙏🙏🙏🙏
0:58 bro charging voice like carti 💀😂😂😂
i used to hate on u for no reason idk why but this fr game me inspiration🔥🔥
Key commands and your shortcuts. Explain those. How to copy and hold and double things. That's the key. Nice work kid!
Sound Selection is 🔑 too
My problem is when I try to bring originality to the table of what music i'm making I tend to try and build sounds instead of looking through presets which is kinda dumber but I feel like it helps me understand a certain respect for making music.
You deserve to show off with skills like that, congratulations
so basically making beats is like tetris, happened to put a good block in a somewhat right place and it just fits in.
From a failed producer respect 👍🏾
Very impressive! And that's comin from a "Old head"!
Great video honestly
When I come back to beats I’ve made that I really like and can listen to over n over, all those times it’s felt like a flow state where I was just doing and not thinking much
“Making beats is not hard, im not flexing” you explained nothing n just said “just look”
He's not gonna tell yall this but he has a clear and solid understanding of music theory behind all of this.
You dont need to be like mozart or anything but if you have a solid grasp on the fundamentals of music theory and how chords and melodies work
coming up with a chord progression, melody, drum pattern and 808 pattern becomes second nature because you know whats going to work
at that point it just becomes a feeling and you can stop overthinking everything and just play.
When he says stop making the excuse of idk music theory.. ima tell you go fucking study and put what you learn to practice
you have google.. all the info is right there.. go read.
Making beats is easy >> Making them sound good? Actually takes talent!
This is true, anyone can make beats but to make an actual good non generic beat isn’t easy for most ppl tbh I been producing since 2010 lol
Bruh…u r possessed 😵💫
Inspiring others in this way is insane
no bro actually knocked everyone senses that it isnt hard
just use your imagination
Keep posting more of these. I get that the speed runs get you views and stuff, but you have the potential to be one of the greats and I mean that Rob.
I highly recommend getting an editor to make the speedrun beats and the yt videos to drop gems. There is only so much one person can do. If you had livestreams where you just make beats, and a little bit of time on speedruns and some YT Videos you would be unstoppable dude. None of the haters can say anything to you.
If you can’t hire people use AI like opusclip to creates clips for you that it takes from your livestreams into short form. I worry that you will get burnt out and I don’t want that for you. That’s why it’s important to have a team.
But, it is your channel and your life so do what you will Rob. I will keep supporting you.
the music flows in this guys veins holy shit
Sometimes when I’m really feeling a melody It comes out in 10 minutes. But if I’m not feeling it I’ll be sitting there for hours just tweaking melodies lol
this video actually gave me the motivation to produce again
Man you're the bomb. Thanks for the good stuff
He's right it's not hard at all. But it takes a little more effort to make a great beat. If u wanna make a bunch of MEDIOCRE beats and brag about it taking you 5 minutes to do so, cool.
true what’s the point of making generic beats if anyone can do it, what sets you apart will be making something unique and not something a producer can easily replicate
@@ItsJamisonJamisonyes!
it really be the controls that people gotta learn
Blaring detail abt this I have to mention though is that this approach of making a melody is by ear. Some ppl have that sense, some ppl have perfect pitch, some ppl don't have anything. The less comfortable u are with just free styling it, chances are the more you'll need to actually study theory/chords in general. (But tbh the chances are that most of us can. Few beginners want to screw around in a DAW without any sense for anything like that)
Also huge detail, consider exploring audio packs/foreign VSTs, cause none of that was native.
it also seems that youve got a great grasp on chord structure and theory.
I love this guy because subcosciously we kow this is reality ad he be droppi bread o our table
Why do I get more interested in making beats when I watch your videos😃
This video was great. I really love your beats!
I’m a drummer and I find making beats on a drum machine so fucking frustrating
Great tutorial and great life advice thank you for this bro!
Heat up 3 is my go to!! That VST is underrated 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I paused so many times… thank you, I’m downloading that shxt
@@gobibeast it’s one of my favorite VST hands down. The fact that is has nice sound selection and it lets you make your own is 🔥🔥. Cheaper than omnisphere 2 yet just as good
can you do a bind tutorial? you mentioned youre playing it like a videogame, which implies theres controls, shortcuts, etc, which we can see you use all the time. can you explain all the shortcuts you do? Im not very mechanically gifted with using FL
Damn he speed his videos up I was wondering how he does it so fast. Still fire at producing
I'm doing everything but make beats, and I hate studying, but when it's time to make music, study becomes the excuse. I'm studying music right now.
Yo master is clipping brah. I'd put teh limiter on that but otherwise great workflow, thanks for the content!
the key is in :
-sound selection
-a bit of theory
- and this god damn FL piano roll hhh
alr but how tf is your sound selection so good? When I cook up sometimes I’ll be getting shit that sound good as an individual instrument but sound like shit w the shit I already got down. Do I just keep searching until I find something that fits or is there a rule of thumb?
thank you bro. its really hard. maybe if i do like you its will be easier. thanx
I just realized ur the kid from the catching preds streams
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
bro why you keep saying about how you know everything like it come from nature . could you please make a vlog talk about what you have to learn to archive this music production skill all those years ( not the production speed )
Music is a vibe, while creating it you gotta go with the flow.
yea n chopping up them chords like that ell just flow too lmao
Wish I could show this video to a 12th century peasant.
The problem for me is actually using the software, I can’t figure out where to get instruments or how to place them or stupid shit
can you make a vid going over hot keys, and just what you're thinking when mass selecting / copying and pasting. I mean you keep it clean like an excel spreadsheet up in here.
what was the kit that u used for the 808???
Appreciate this bro.
Thanks bro! much love.
Great video. Great advice. Thanks Bruh.
bro u didnt even tell us the controls on the keyboard for
what program u using to make ur beats?
He uses fl studio 21
its not as hard as you think when you're experienced 💀
Facts bro and i would like you opinion on this personally i think when we listen to our favourite songs we think to ourselves that it's unreachable and we dick ride to the point of doubting ourselves not to say the artists we listen to are not talented but i found if you listen to instrumentals and remakes you realise it isnt has deep has you think i always say the beat sounds different with vocals and since we hear the finished song and not the beat so that's our first impression listen to the beat as if you never heard the song and you'll see it aint that deep most of the time and i know because i have first hand experience that some beats you'll think are trash until you hear the vocals on it and then it starts hitting different
So awesome!! 🌠
what app is he on
Bro need a fl short cuts video 🙏
How at 0:20 when he moves the notes, only the top note, which he grabbed with the mouse, moves normally, and those notes below jump over one?
Different genres of hip hop can be a bit more challenging. Trap drums and 808’s make it a bit easier and simple. Click in a melody. 2 step hi hat. And 808s in key. With some knowledge of good music theory.
What is the key command for the shorten at 0:39?
What is it!!!
Control + L (highlight the notes u want)
Brroo you are firee🔥 keep doing it bro🔥 you are doing art but as music🔥
Can you have one of those key press recorders in the bottom of the screen cause I’m tryna learn all the keybinds for fl studio
you're definitely here to flex bro
yh for u legit im always stuck idk what to do i really want help and someone that could watch me try make a beat
that's cool advice will nice bro
wow Thanks Bro big up
First W video Rob
"Yoo i am not doing this to flex on anyone or anything" proceeds to flex on everybody not i a bad way tho
LFG ROB UPLOADED
Are you using the full version of default and what instrument you mainly suggest to use to make a beat
🔥 hard
New subscriber. Good stuff 👍
Nice Video Bro
2:45 that pitch switch he did is insane
bro i have a question. do you know by any cchance how he did that? (with the key shortcuts)
@@bensick yea i gotchu, ctrl+arrow going downwards
I'm the 911th like.
soo....dont overthink?! got it
Making beats is easy, but making good beats may be challenging (Not saying your beats aren't good, they are just basic)
Try speedrunning a RAGE beat plssss🙏🙏🙏🙏
take a shot everytime he says "overthinking"
