Idol worship has become a serious problem. Be a man, you dont have to lower yourself to another man...except if you're into that kinda stuff. But keep it to yourself.
That's cause he's white we do everything better especially when it comes to Hip Hop the music we invented, Just ask Rick Ruben and the Beastie boys and Blondie! Word up!
Al is literally a scientist on the beats. Ya'll not catchin' how he's sampling? Incredible. Jumping through different records until the sounds fit to his liking. From this vid, I feel the creation is sporadic and thats f*ckin awesome. Not too much planned but dammit when the vibes is right, then you know the rest is going to be true raw bad ass hip-hop for the streets! Much love and respect to ALC. In hip-hop, definitely in my top 5 greatest producers of all time. Hands down.
"Ya'll not catchin' how he's sampling? Incredible. Jumping through different records until the sounds fit to his liking." That's exactly what sampling is in general tho
I be amazed at how little most ppl realize how difficult this is and how much knowledge of music you have to possess to even put sh!t like this together. Definitely one of the greats I study
Yea thats when it starts to taste harsh. When you first light up its taste great but when you get about halfway all that resin from the bud just kinda makes it taste like... resin. Im not saying its bad like wiz said "smoke it down till they stingers" . Berner smokes his js halfway too
i remember early youtube circa 2005 showing the NY- apartment mini-doc , to EVERYBODY , time and time again. 15 years later...we still "here". Never stop Al !
The greatest I remember meeting you in Vegas and was so down to earth but on the go at the same time 💯 thank you for being one of the people that kept me going with producing 👑 Nothing but love here
I’m sad I didn’t speak to boldly some years ago when him n alc was in stl Alc gave an amazing q and a with Tef Poe And boldly had his son with em ( 🐐) The journey is a thing of beauty And this is just a glimpse Thank u for the view into your world 👑
This was probably one of my favorite projects from 2019, like I'm mad it didn't get more shine. That shit was too good. These two together make an incredible duo.
This is dope, I'm glad Boldy signed to Griselda, aswell as Mass Appeal...That's a good look for him, still listening to My 1st Chemistry set 🔥🔥🔥 btw Alc that beat you did for Westside Gunn "Elizabeth" is still stuck in my head 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Heres one of his secrets for you ...when he programs his drum loops he has them slightly offbeat instead of starting on the line of the 1st bar they start slightly to the left or right of the line... he never lines up the melody sample with the drums exactly on the line...If you take one of his tracks and put it in your DAW then extract just the drums using Izotope RX7 plug-in then take those separate drums and try and line them up on your DAWS grid to the ones playing in his track you will see where they hit ...
My favorite producer next to primo. I would love to hear a full length colab album with Nas (yeah I know they got several classics already) Hov, Crimeapple, DMX....omg can you imagine X and Al with a full length colab? Dave East, Flatbush Zombies, Royce, and Big Krit.

Yessssir 🔥
Yes but he has also earned that luxury. We haven't. I live paycheck to paycheck bruh lol
@@SpoiledTruthyeah he clearly don’t give a shit about the status or fame anymore . It’s just about being dope now. Which he is , way more I think

100%
I love how raw and grimey his studio is.
Reminds me of OhNo (Madlib's brother) on Rhythm Roulette episode
lol that's how every studio I ever been to looks.
@@terrra_2024 Really? I see some in super clean studios. Could be rentals tho

Al’s needle game is on point. That boy can move a needle like nobody business.
good catch
On sum Bruce Lee sh**

He's got a masterclass out now
Most consistent producer, probably ever. Can’t think of anyone who’s been going this long dropping non-stop heat.
only a few, him premier, 9th wonder, No ID
madlib too
@@the25thhr41 true, but they don’t drop nearly as many projects as Al does, year after year.
Dj muggs has been for longer . But both are legends
@@dnareti the OG Muggs actually taught Al how to make beats back in the day when he was rappin in the Whooligans if u look it up .. both legends now
I've been waiting so long for another video like this its crazy watching him go through all those records and flipping it like it's nothing
alchemist is a god. give him his flowers
🎄🌼🌼🌷⚘🪴🌲🌳🌴🌵🌾🌿☘🍀🍁🍂🍃 while he still here.
Super facts!

Best producer in the game rn, him and Madlib
He’s not god😐 top 5 producers though
I meant in a musical sense of the aspect. Respect kickdrum

I been doin that shit since forever ago but seeing him do it tells me I’m doing something right lol

"Ya'll not catchin' how he's sampling? Incredible. Jumping through different records until the sounds fit to his liking."
That's exactly what sampling is in general tho
@@Owdaks Just ignore him, he thinks his thinking is something special
any ALC studio vid is a treasure
Method to my madness is a hell of a tune. Just watching it be put together is inspiring and makes me want to fire up my DAW and get to work.
Ty sir, forgot the name to that shit its incredibly hard pause price of tea n China was tape of the year Al is the goat
I be amazed at how little most ppl realize how difficult this is and how much knowledge of music you have to possess to even put sh!t like this together. Definitely one of the greats I study
Reminds me of the old days of al and prodigy documentaries! Thanks a lot for making this
I remember seeing those on TH-cam, classic footage
Facts 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
His studio looks chill asf
Al be smoking his joints only halfway and then rolls up another one lol
I peeped TF outta that lmfaoooo that's how you know you made it
Yea thats when it starts to taste harsh. When you first light up its taste great but when you get about halfway all that resin from the bud just kinda makes it taste like... resin. Im not saying its bad like wiz said "smoke it down till they stingers" . Berner smokes his js halfway too
This is amazing! I love these rare glimpses into the laboratory... hopefully these start showing up more often then not...
Al hasn't stopped creating masterpieces in 25 years!
One of the best beat makers in history period!! Al needs to be in the hall of fame of producers
Is it crazy to say Al hasn’t even peaked yet?
Scary
Top 5 all time no debate
Interesting point for sure. I’ve felt like he just keeps getting better with time
@@ChaosBeforeOrder Even top 3 let's not be shy about it.
Dj. Muggz Birth Em.. Now every real producer from Harry fraud, to cats Like Jay Worthy, Derringer Adopted The Alchemist's recipe
This man has created through so many generations of Hip Hop
Boldy and alchemist mad underrated
alchemist been in the game for 20 years it's boldy that's underrated
im talking as a duo
Any time I watch Uncle Al I get so inspired to make beats right away. Give this man his flowers, living legend.
Experimental i love it been listening to ya since I was 13 years old always fiyah
love seeing all these compact flash cards next to his MPC
i remember early youtube circa 2005 showing the NY- apartment mini-doc , to EVERYBODY , time and time again. 15 years later...we still "here". Never stop Al !
The greatest I remember meeting you in Vegas and was so down to earth but on the go at the same time 💯 thank you for being one of the people that kept me going with producing 👑 Nothing but love here
i could not even image how it would feel writing on a couch behind this dude cooking up some of the hottest beats of the century.
This motivated me to make a beat at 3am. Much love from the Philippines Al Chemist!
Dude, the feelin one has when diggin like this on the records, such a vibe damn
Best producer alive no argument
Darringer is up there too man
@@Lordofvenlo he good but Al has put in work for 20 yrs.
knxwledge up there right after
Dr dre?
Al and Madlib
I’m sad I didn’t speak to boldly some years ago when him n alc was in stl
Alc gave an amazing q and a with Tef Poe
And boldly had his son with em ( 🐐)
The journey is a thing of beauty
And this is just a glimpse
Thank u for the view into your world 👑
He's gotta be 1 of the most innovative producers ever.🔥
best producer of our generation hands down. this is great, to see the method and hear the product, real artist
multi-generational at this point i got into him heavy in the 2000s (like alot of other older fans), he doesn't stop getting iller.
@@skilletburritos8464 I'm 32, that's what I meant by our generation bro
What that man does with an MPC is just pure magic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He lives up to his name in every sense of the word, Alchemist .
I’m digging the beat at 0:59. Looks like Conway is there writing to it also. Hope we hear a song out of that one day. 0:29 top.
I swear I heard the sample to 14 KIs at one point
has it been released yet
We need one of these for whatever you cooking up with Earl rn
This was probably one of my favorite projects from 2019, like I'm mad it didn't get more shine. That shit was too good. These two together make an incredible duo.
Uncle Al is a school🐐🏆
Respect from Libya
Peace from Miami homie ✌🏾
Peace from morroco 🇲🇦❤🇱🇾
keep dropping these studio videos AL Legendary!!!!
It’s like your mind never left the golden era
Best producer in the rap game‼️just my opinion. Thank You Prodigy for bringing him on. Thanks Al 👉🏽🏆
I need more of these videos like yesterday
Love the way he goes from sample to sample
summer nights' instrumental is superb
please can we have more of this, Al. Its like us watching a Chef cook!
Thank you Al!! We needed this!
This got me wanting to see more "making of the album" videos..surprised that's not a thing yet
I could watch this. All. Day.
Always nice to watch someone else work in the studio on something besides myself. Ah well, back to work. Thanks Alan.
Thankful I met Alchemist in LA two weeks ago 🙏🏼
The GOAT at work!
My favorite producer💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💣
The Alchemist. The legend at work
It's so cool to see the artist at work
Thanks Al you keeping it alive 💯
can't rest until I know the track that starts at 0:59
:( still waiting
@@rianeagan2693still waiting 😭
still
love to see James wit his shoes off and a pen and pad. He comfortable and in his zone
als workflow is inspiring af
My favourite producer is ALC
This is a gift. Thanks for sharing
With the 303 & 2500 still fucking the game up!
God Bless Al. 👊
*I wish you’d give us more behind the scenes access on a weekly basis.*
ive never been this confused and happy at the same time
Thanks for putting effort in it!
Nice to see he's still on the 2500. Dope machine. Im never giving mine up
Amazing, how this video has little views and only 51k subscribers.. Just shows who the real hip hop heads are.. ALC THE GOAT
Good lookin on the behind the scenes Al ! 🎥
This is dope, I'm glad Boldy signed to Griselda, aswell as Mass Appeal...That's a good look for him, still listening to My 1st Chemistry set 🔥🔥🔥 btw Alc that beat you did for Westside Gunn "Elizabeth" is still stuck in my head 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thisnis exactly how I pictured an alchemist studio would look like 😅
It adds a lot to the music to me being able to see the process, much love stay lifted
Alc is a mad scientist
im mad this is so short
Dude. It might be a hoursworth total of Alc footage like this on TH-cam.
He can't give everyone the formula.
definitely gonna be up late tonight... that inspiration right there, digging through sh*t for sh*t #theessence
alc studio is so sick
Lovin those ol schools samples 👌...
Name of the Vinyl he played from 0:31 to 0:57??
1:11 that fukkin snare is 🔥🔥🔥
I Love the fact that he still uses his MPC 2500, that's super dope analogies unite
watching Al cook up is therapeutic
Al please bring back the fisheye studio sessions on the regular! Shit is an instant classic just like it’s always been
Method To The Madness FR!!🔥🔥
I have come to see Al as one of the best all time
The Alchemist is in My Top 5! 🏆
I love how ALC posts this and didn't really give away any of his secrets.
Heres one of his secrets for you ...when he programs his drum loops he has them slightly offbeat instead of starting on the line of the 1st bar they start slightly to the left or right of the line... he never lines up the melody sample with the drums exactly on the line...If you take one of his tracks and put it in your DAW then extract just the drums using Izotope RX7 plug-in then take those separate drums and try and line them up on your DAWS grid to the ones playing in his track you will see where they hit ...

About to drop another classic I see. I’m still not over the first one 😩🔥
Alchemist could stop today and could still put out years worth of unreleased tracks.
Love seeing Alchemist cook up the soundtracks behind the scenes footage
Bold & Al, best duo since ice cream and apple pie 😤
Such a dope EP
“In the Kitchen with the Al Chemist”
My favorite producer next to primo. I would love to hear a full length colab album with Nas (yeah I know they got several classics already) Hov, Crimeapple, DMX....omg can you imagine X and Al with a full length colab? Dave East, Flatbush Zombies, Royce, and Big Krit.
Prayers for X
