@@jennyneon in the exact same phrasing, using the exact same people, in the exact same order... I don't think so. Go watch the video if you don't believe me.
If the fact that Dilla did all of this with an MPC while he was dying doesn't prove his genius and commitment to the game then I don't know what does. RIP
Is that right? I thought that everyone who spoke on his time spent in the hospital following his death said that he produced it on an MPC. I could be completely wrong though. I probably should do my homework before speaking so definitively on something.
its almost like it was meant to work out how it did, Donuts releases just before he leaves. Dilla made a masterpiece while on the edge of life and death
Crazy how he completely changed the way samples sounded, it's not just speeding them up... There is some sort of magic trickery going on. They don't sound anything like the original samples
Good when it's not 20 second cut on a sample. I think it's a bit better if makes it harder to hear what it's from. Or your kind of just hearing a tune you already know and probably like it as its known and easy on your ear. But making samples that make it hard to tell where its from or not a long music part like has been done is better. Or you have sting getting another no 1 because of the sample used in the poofy, puff the dragon or whatever his name is. He used so much of the sample people related to original and sold much more and is too much to take and have new song! Many have took sample and used it as is without making it fit as it entire song! There's a point when a samples taken over the song and they sell as oh I know this. Some musicians take the piss. Dilla was original and made to do this. Shame died so young.
I love how J Dilla was able to bring out the emotions and mournfulness in the samples he used. How he gave subtle insights into his own mindset during his last few months. Even the track-listing gives insights to what was going through his mind, such as 'hi' and 'bye' or changing 'only one can win' to 'two can win', trying to change the inevitable. The creativity on Donuts is absolutely stunning but what truly makes it amazing is the emotional power of the record
James Thomas hell yeah...well said. I'm kinda ashamed to admit it, but I've only started getting into Dilla in like the past two months. KRS-ONE, Rakim, N.W.A., Public Enemy, BDK etc. were more my style. But now that I've had a chance to appreciate his work, it's quite clear that he was a very talented, creative, innovative artist. There won't be one quite like him in a million years.
MC Zappa I started cause this video it's sad most people I know want say he trash and disrespecting him and saying I only care about his music cause he's dead while they listen to the same trap beats over and over again. mainly my brother I'm 16 and I can't walk do to cerebral palsy and Dilla taught me I can do anything I own a Mpc and I hope to be signed someday.
absolutely! sad, positive and beautiful vibes mergin in such a uniqe composition which should not be tangible but is in fact so coherent that it's hard to express in words...
Can’t agree with you on being the best but it is indeed a fantastic album. If we’re talking hip hop instrumental albums I’d have to pick endtroducing then if we’re just talking instrumentals over all music genres then definitely for me my favorite album of all time it would be since I left you. The amount of samples and wide variety of genres was spectacular
to really understand the Genius of Dilla,one has to listen to the original Songs he sampled and see what a mind he had to take what most people would gloss over!
When I was listening to donuts without knowing any original samples, I thought it was good beats he created. Now I think he was one of the genius producer of century.
@@nolongerinuse915 Dj shadow said in an interview promoting the album saying he will never speak on the samples even when he dies. Thiers a reason why that album is still heavily regarded as a sampling obscurity masterpiece.
There’s something timeless about sample breakdown vids. It’s like I can watch these forever. Dilla blew my mind since I was a kid and now as a man I can appreciate more.
Think about how many samples this is for how short of an amount of time he had to create this body of work. Like did he just have a pile of potential samples sitting in his mind. He must’ve mapped it all out in his head. Greatest of all time
Thank you for honoring Dilla in this way. Jay Dee is a staple in my life, for his music, for his work ethic, the emotion, and this video demonstrates the degree by which his audiophile abilities tirelessly pursued originality/ life.
@@OnettBoyXD "slanted eye culture vulture that only weebs give a fuck about" so many wrong things about that sentence. Some respect to Nujabes, he was just as talented as Dilla was.
@@farewellblues nah, he really wasn't. not even close. but it's okay if you can't differentiate the level of greatness. that racist comment from @Astro was some bullshit tho.
This video has 4 years of comments on it and you somehow managed to leave the best one. I feel the exact same way like...how do you infuse life into loops like this. You can feel Dillas soul in his shit. Rip fr fr
@@Chicken-1923 Yeah, done more research since I wrote that comment. The stuff he did in the hospital was with a 303 and Pro Tools, and then he used the MPC for the other beats.
Absolutely beautiful, my eyes were fixated the whole time. So so sad, I wish I could spend a couple of moments with him to thank him and tell him he's changed my life. Love you Dilla
this past March for the anniversary of this album, even though I was so sick and so lightheaded I still managed to walk out the door, slump into my car and drive to Dunkin donuts and listen to this whole album and just cry.
Donuts is a really interesting album. The only speech is from the samples, and it’s like the instruments do the talking here. Dilla wants you to focus on the instruments like they are the vocals. It’s like a Hip-Hop urban version of Daft Punk
Your videos are so well edited man, love the flow of your transitions from sample to song and back. The design of your vids is also so nice to look at as well. Makes watching these things in full rewarding. Don't let these bigger channels bully you, you deserve views more than them. Peace.
YO!!! It is Amazing the time and effort that you put forth with editing and digging. I truly appreciated it and I appreciate the time that you took to do it. Great Work!!! Be Blessed!!! R. I. P. Dilla!!!!
Very dope and creative vid put together for the G.O.A.T...its hard to believe that he made this masterpiece with an SP-303/ 45s and a record player. Considering the limitations of that machine, his ear for music was impeccable. The way he blended that array of music with the different sound bytes and loops.. amazes me til this day. R.I.P. Jay Dee
In a recent eposode of #QuestosWreckaStow he said that Dilla lost his ability to talk but he was still able to create. Questlove also said that every sample on "Donuts" was picked for a reason. The last song he sampled was "When I Die" by Motherlode. My guess is that "Donuts" is a hidden message.
Dilla will always live in his music, each song I play, I feel like I was there when he made it, it seems so real that the reality becomes a heavy sadness. Rest easy homie.
Haha word well I'll check that out! You make good choices on albums and I like the style that you do it, its ALMOST replaced me browsing whosampled for 6 hours a day. Almost.
How the fuck Im get emotional and almost cry for someone who I dont even know, I dont even meet or talk from far far distance away. I just feel his music. RIP Dilla.
Imagine how well programmed and dedicated J Dilla had to have been in producing to sit down there and decide exactly what needed to be where and why. It's all blends perfectly. RIP J DILLA
Bro, thank you so much for this. J Dilla is my all-time favorite producer hands down. I look forward to watching your future videos. Keep on doing what you're doing.
Jimi Hendrix had a guitar, John Coltrane had a sax, and J Dilla had a MPC.

Ian Haskell I actually heard it was on an SP303. He used a few of the preset drum samples on Lightworks
Is that right? I thought that everyone who spoke on his time spent in the hospital following his death said that he produced it on an MPC. I could be completely wrong though. I probably should do my homework before speaking so definitively on something.
its almost like it was meant to work out how it did, Donuts releases just before he leaves. Dilla made a masterpiece while on the edge of life and death
Tyler Chapin it was on an MPC3000 I believe
Dilla used multiple samplers while working on Donuts but I believe the SP303 was the main one while working in the hospital.
it is INSANE how he was able to make this in so much pain
War in my pen pfp omg damnn
Crazy how he completely changed the way samples sounded, it's not just speeding them up... There is some sort of magic trickery going on. They don't sound anything like the original samples
That's the power of an SP-303 and timestretching. Really interesting stuff

jdilla dope good music dope Awesome RlP mss you bests sound samples ear legacy
"Bye" is the last song dilla CREATED. Yes, he has unreleased stuff but bye was made on his deathbed. I mean that literally
it's so fucking emotional - such a fantastic piece of art
Last donut of the night always makes me emotional
🖤🖤 same
Still bumping today ❤️
Alot of J Dilla music is timeless and AWESOME.
YEEESSS!!!! FINALLY!!! The best instrumental rap album ever.
absolutely! sad, positive and beautiful vibes mergin in such a uniqe composition which should not be tangible but is in fact so coherent that it's hard to express in words...
Can’t agree with you on being the best but it is indeed a fantastic album.

Top 3 instrumental albums (imo)
Donuts- Dilla
Endtroducing- Shadow
Homework- Daft Punk
And Beat Conduckta saga
to really understand the Genius of Dilla,one has to listen to the original Songs he sampled and see what a mind he had to take what most people would gloss over!
That little detail at 3:22 doesn’t go unnoticed @Bandstand
Probably the most noticeable shit detail in the video. My early stuff is so bad
@@Bandstand haha right, stay humble man
@@Bandstand I enjoyed it
i thought it was a play on the tiny pause in Stop?
@@Bandstand Bro was in a Sopranos binge at the time lol
Coming back here on Dilla Day 2021 RIP, 15th anniversary
This is insane man! The amount of work you put in with video editing, and timing of the music! wow
I also really want to eat donuts in Detroit after watching this
sam watson we got donuts here.
Yeah this is dope, very well done
This is like homework
For real
MaxOG for real😂
The Daft Punk album?
Broo you gotta do every sample from Madlibs Unseen
🤯🤯🤯🤯
Bro on gooood
Frfrfr
needs to happen bruh
Fuck it, do every sample on every madlib beats.
Dude this made me tear up it was so well put together. Great video and a great tribute to the GOAT.
Sean i thought i waa the only one
When I was listening to donuts without knowing any original samples, I thought it was good beats he created. Now I think he was one of the genius producer of century.
I could listen to "Time: Donut Of The Heart" or "Don't Cry" on repeat until I die and I'd never get tired of it.
14:23 in short, J dilla loved his mom.
there are so many vocals sprinkled in to the album, i absolutely love it. it connects the songs and makes the album feel more alive
This is one of the best edited sample videos I've ever seen. You're real for this, and all the other great vids.
puts into perspective just how much of a genius he is. the way he perfectly contorted these samples
Please do DJ Shadow's Endtroducing...., another amazing instrumental hip hop record. There's a LOT of samples though
Sammy Abraham thatd be dope
it blows my mind that there are still samples from Endtroducing that haven't been found
Nice Campfire Headphase profile pic
Sammy Abraham I would leave my body if whoever did this blessed us with Endroduction!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥

That dude was on a whole different wave . A much higher frequency beyond mortals . DILLA 4EVA
💯
We was not from this world ---
ONLY ON "WORKINONIT" AND DILLA IS EVEN MORE INTRICATE THAN I THOUGHT. BRAVO TO THE CREATOR(S) OF THIS VIDEO.
Thank you for honoring Dilla in this way. Jay Dee is a staple in my life, for his music, for his work ethic, the emotion, and this video demonstrates the degree by which his audiophile abilities tirelessly pursued originality/ life.
He sampled Frank Zappa... Haha, I love Dilla
Workonit really one of the most mesmerizing beats I’ve ever heard.
rest in beats Dilla and rest in beats nujabes
Stfu weeb. Don't compare a legend like Dilla to some slanted eye culture vulture nobody that only weebs give a fuck about.
@@OnettBoyXD "slanted eye culture vulture that only weebs give a fuck about" so many wrong things about that sentence. Some respect to Nujabes, he was just as talented as Dilla was.

Astro how is he a culture vulture? Listen to any of his songs you can hear clear Japanese influence or stylistic elements...
Astro lmao dude someone pissed in your Cheerios or something?
Mash, Time, and Don’t Cry are seriously some of the best beats of all time
damn that ending though 😔 i feel sad af now. rip dilla! 🍩
Dave Acosta DAMN YOU CARDIAC ARREST!
Binging the channel as it came back after so many months.
“What genre do you sample?”
Dilla: Yes
Dilla made the beats feel like they were alive man. That's some crazy talent
This video has 4 years of comments on it and you somehow managed to leave the best one. I feel the exact same way like...how do you infuse life into loops like this. You can feel Dillas soul in his shit. Rip fr fr
The fact that he did most of this on an SP-303 is unbelievable, I can only dream of achieving this level of mastery over the 303.
impossible for most people on full professional DAWs
Sp 303, mpc and pro tools
@@Chicken-1923 Yeah, done more research since I wrote that comment. The stuff he did in the hospital was with a 303 and Pro Tools, and then he used the MPC for the other beats.
"Stop" is my fav track. Such a masterpiece.
He showed the world what you can really do with sampling and putting passion into your art.
Waves has to be the sickest sample flip of all time
Absolutely beautiful, my eyes were fixated the whole time. So so sad, I wish I could spend a couple of moments with him to thank him and tell him he's changed my life. Love you Dilla
Best thing i've watched on youtube
Scoob IV 🌻
it actually hurts to realize what is lost
A mosaic of sounds put together with pure genius.
2 can win for some reason always brings tears to my eyes.....rip dilla
Same fam
Bought this on vinyl today. R.I.P DILLA

I rewatched some of this video because of your comment. I think this video is hot garbage. Glad you liked it
@@Bandstand oh damn.....
It’s that time, my yearly viewing of this video. Always loved how this was edited. Happy Birthday Jay Dee.
Never have I subscribed this fast after clicking on a channel.
You missed a sample. Welcome to the Show aka Donuts (Intro) had *When I Die* by Motherlode.
yeah I was surprised he didn'y have that one
Ey this exists again, sweet. Good luck with whatever comes up dude.
Operation Doomsday by MF DOOM
The Dope Wolfonic that would be awesome. Or mm food
Eric Cochrane Fr!
Quarter of the way on both of those.
Bandstand niceeeee, can't wait to see those.
The Dope Wolfonic 🌻
This is the most emotional compilation I’ve ever watched haha. Gets me teary each time.
Donuts is so emotional to listen to. Feels like the ending of E.T for real as you keep moving toward the end of the album.

God damn the effort, man.
I'll say. This is the sample video to end all sample videos.
Appreciate the love. Dropping a video tommorow afternoon. I think you're gonna like it.
I’m nearly in tears this video was so well done
14:23
just showcases why J Dilla is going to remembered in my books as one of the most intricate and alluding enigma
WORKIN' ON IT!
Honestly, this video is a masterpiece in itself and that outro is the greatest summarisation of the making of Donuts
Thanks homie this is more than great. Love J Dilla he left a legacy that lives on.
When you stopped the video during the stop sample oh my god chills all over
i’ve heard this album so many times, and there’s still things i pick up on for the first time. absolutely incredible. RIP Dilla.
This is great but I wish you did the sample for the album’s closer, Welcome To The Show!

“Last Donut of the Night” always makes me a little sad. RIP Dilla.
Yo, your editing skills are too insane. Great job!
this channel is legit as hell
crazy. This guy was crazy, the feeling of it all. We might have found all the elements but some people create that new feeling.
The GOAT producer without a doubt, tell me someone who produced a whole album while they were dying.
This is incredibly well-done and mega props to you. I’m curious why Welcome To The Show isn’t on here?
this is by far my favorite video ever
His spirit still lives on in all of the beats we make today!!!
How the fuck Im get emotional and almost cry for someone who I dont even know, I dont even meet or talk from far far distance away. I just feel his music. RIP Dilla.
This is awesome i just discover you. You should do all the samples of Jinsang album Life
Imagine how well programmed and dedicated J Dilla had to have been in producing to sit down there and decide exactly what needed to be where and why. It's all blends perfectly. RIP J DILLA
Insane production
This is REALLY well done how you chopped everything up. Great job, my man--you should be proud of this
Powerful!! Great job on editing this video!! DONUTS IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE A CLASSIC!! TIMELESS!! RIP DILLA!!
Something about this album just makes me really sad its like the mortality of life staring back at you what an excellent video.
Beautiful
this need more views. awesome work RIP J Dilla
ooh fuck man you killed me with the last scene .. rip to the greatest ..
This is truly awesome! Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Wow!

Dude, thank you. This is a super enjoyable video and this album is truly beautiful.
Thank you so much: J Dilla fans, admirers and appreciators. This video is it's own work. Fantastic!...get it?
70s was the best decade. I was too young to appreciate it at the time but thanks to people like Dilla I got to catch up later.
Thank you for putting this together. I was in tears.
When I die is not featured...
How many samples for a single song damn Dilla you the best to ever do it 😭😭♥️
