      advice.... just narrate, nobody needs to see you. speak faster. if you insist on being seen, jazz up the background a bit.. or a lot. play the trax for a longer time, both the sample & the preemo result. otherwise, good shit.

    Incredible video. Excellent breakdown of the complexities behind Premo's productions. He's my all time favorite producer. His beats just hit differently. Grimy and classic at the same time. Takes me back to the 90s in NYC. First time I ran into you channel. Subbed immediately.

    That's a crazy story about Sankey's Soap. I used to travel there from Merseyside back in the mid-'90s as well. Best shows I saw Bootsy Collins and Rufus Thomas.

    Nah I put Dilla,Madlib, even Black Milk ahead of Primo.All a matter of taste.

      Dilla was super dope at chopping but he’s no longer with us. Madlib is great too. Black Milk does some good stuff but Preemo has been in the game over 30 years and is still releasing seriously amazing music. Just my opinion

    How is he the best producer when everything hes made has basically the same sound? Just Blaze is way better a producer...
