Preemo, QTip, and Large Pro were learning from each other and pushing each other. You add DITC, Beat Minors, and a hand full of others and you may not need anyone else.
Shook Ones Part II is THE greatest hip-hop track of all time, on every level. When those drums kick in it stops you dead in your tracks, and then the piano lets you know that this is serious, serious business. And THEN Havoc and Prodigy drop those lyrics. Just untouchable. Thank you so much for sharing this analysis-I didn't even know it was a Mobb Deep production! Mind blown.
Q-Tip was a huge part of the making of the Infamous album. He fully produced Give Up The Goods, Temperatures Rising, Drink away The Pain. And he did the drums on Trife Life and Up North Trip. And he added the horns and mixed the drums on Survival Of The Fittest.
I was actually blown away when I first learned that the sample in shookones was a slowed down piano. Another cool thing about the sample was that the notes heard stayed in key and in sync with the song even when pitched down again. usually if you try play a sample on a different note the pitch completely changes, along with the timing too so it would typically fall out of sync/key in a beat, but with the shook ones sample it just all works out so perfectly, its actually pretty insane. I could talk about this song all day lol, its so good.
That beat is absolutely CHILLING... makes it even better when you know the story behind it and hear how all the different sounds come together. This channel is great at explaining hip hop production.
i'm loving this sampling series you've been putting out! it's one thing to show where the samples come from but you elevate it to another level with backstory and insane detail
Infamous is favorite record of all time. It's a great album but it's far ftom a classic. Classic albums are illmatic, reasonable doubt, only built 4 cuban links, enter the wu tang and others I can't remember. If your telling me infamous is better than those albums, you don't know nothing about hip hop
I've already seen a couple of videos about the sample used in shook ones, but still can't get enough of it! The art of using so little and creating such an involving atmosphere out of it makes this song just a pure classic.
The in-depth breakdowns and your showing the exact sample rotation is the best way to present this material. You do an excellent job and I have thus far completely grooved with all of your sample videos, even for songs I didn't particularly care for by themselves. Keep up the good work.
I really like how they use horns and samples to create the sound of nyc subway trains and traffic. I’m just a sucker for that move lol. For example; the sound at 7:00 sounds just like a musical electric subway train both starting its electric engine, the wheels on the tracks, the sound of a PA alerting you the train has arrived and train breaks. All in one sample. The effect is like this: the train starting is in the front of a sample, and the breaking sound is toward the end of a sample; giving the effect of a never ending starting and stopping of train cars, which in and of itself, is a statement about the city that never sleeps The infamous is a classic album. The extended version is great. Shook part 2 is a great place to start cause it’s the most popular but there’s so much great samples, analogies, stories and sounds on this album, there’s a wealth of content on this album for ya. Lastly, the nyc subway trains tend to use not flats or sharps as tones, so the Ebm sounds pitched down making the herby train sounding tones give the effect of time being in slow motion, dreaming in a city that never sleeps, being tired from hustling,or being slightly intoxicated to someone used to the normal sound of nyc subway tones. Even for someone without perfect pitch, it’s gonna have a subliminal effect
One of the top hip hop songs (of all time) not necessarily skill-wise but seminal in terms of ambience and tone for the genre. Never knew how much craftsmanship havoc put into this, and for gramps to be musically connected to the legendary quincy. Great stuff.
The crazy thing is… He can explain the beat better than the person that made the beat. He knows some details that didn’t matter to the beat maker. They was throwing stuff and samples on a beat. He is doing the footwork to know about samples, the sounds, the background and the what, when, where and how….TRUE GENIUS
@krishnaSingh-ow1ie that’s not all hip-hop is. This is just one aspect of it. Majority of hip-hop, especially modern music, doesn’t even use this technique. And even with this, it requires skill and creativity to take existing music and use it as a tool to create new original music. This is just one tool out of many.
Back in the days beatmaker producers did the knowledge. The gods always have you put the 1 before the 2 and 3. Thus, if you talk to Large Pro, Preem, Tip, Havoc, Ski, DITC, Beatminerz etc - they nerd out over this stuff.
One of the most classic records ever. There are certain songs that blew my mind when i first heard them. This was one, The World is Yours by Nas and Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik by Outkast.... Man, the good old days....
Visited NYC two times as a Clevelander. Walking over the Queensborough Bridge, bumping Shook Ones in my headphones was like a Buddhist visiting Thailand. Was just as awestruck as I was seeing the skyscrapers in Manhattan. Was like 😮🤓😛
I'm in awe of these sample breakdowns... I remember being a twenty-something listening to this,wondering how they made that sound. Indeed,it was more complex than most people would realize. 🙀
Love this!! May I request a storytime on the widely sampled Summer Madness by Kool & the Gang? This song puzzles me because while its not unusual for 70s funk bands to play these deep jazz cuts (im thinking of Sun Goddess by EW&F), sonically, I feel like Summer Madness isnt even the same band! Lol! Am I right?! Like how do you go from summer madness to freaking Celebration?! Hahah!
@@Jaznellow maybe... They did have many styles I guess. Africano for example definitely veers more towards jazz but there are other tracks on that LP that are more funk derived. But I see a lot of jazz funk as jazz that was specifically made for dance floors, so don't necessarily separate them when we're looking at artists like this or Herbie.
Great idea, i freaking love Summer Madness... Kool and the Gang was truly KOOL back in their funk and jazz days before they went disco, just like Commodores.
I always felt like Havoc's production on The Infamous was like the darker version of Q-Tip's style. Similar bounce on the drums, similar snares that crack and have a lot of reverb/ring, more so on some of the (highly underrated) songs like "just step" "temperature's rising" "trife life" "up north trip" etc. And actually those songs are pretty jazzy, if you look past the grimy lyrics.
Q-Tip was a huge part of the making of the Infamous album. He fully produced Give Up The Goods, Temperatures Rising, Drink away The Pain. And he did the drums on Trife Life and Up North Trip. And he added the horns and mixed the drums on Survival Of The Fittest. So thats why the tracks you mentioned remind you of Q-Tip.
Honestly a deep dive into the evolution of their production style from SouthernPCFM to ATLiens to Aquemini would be amazing. Each album has a distinct influence and sound, but you can hear the abstraction from traditional hip hop to full psychedelic soul by the 3rd album. If anyone could break it down, it would be this channel.
Man! I greatly appreciate all your hard work developing and creating these wonderful videos about music. Your knowledge and love for music are great to watch. Continue to keep up the great work, and be blessed brother!
It’s crazy to me that some people don’t listen to songs over and over trying to pick out samples and sounds I’ll play a song 15 times back yo back trying to catch it I just love it helped me through life
No clue how your channel popped up on my feed but I love how you break it down especially daft punk and the soulquarians, think I spelled that right lol Love the channel all the way from texas!
Could have mentioned that piano sample(Jessica) was a long way to find out.. mostly done by German hiphop Journalist Falk Schacht Like your videos a lot! Keep on!
Man, this is one of the greatest videos I've ever watched. You earned my subscription and notification bell. Appreciate all of the work you put into this.
Nice clip- forgot the kitchen stove tho…for us back then in nyc the opener was a wrap that tick tick tick…anyway the first song you played also sounds like a sample done by umc’s and is very similar to what shocklee et al did with “sound of the seekers”
6:56 I'm OBSESSED with this sample. How did they originally do it. I think l remember seeing on youtube them using a horn and blowing it into one of those semi circle sound barrier things AHHHHHHH HELP PLEAS.
I'm glad you point out the vernacular of music, because ultimately that's all the "theory" is about is communicating the music to others without being able to hear it. There are almost no hard and fast rules of music.
You know it’s funny. This is what I thought and hoped Dj Premiers “What’s up” was going to be like. What made him choose this chop or what drew him to that piece. But I digress. I truly appreciate your beat breakdown and much success to you and the channel.
Absolutely awesome video. This channel is amazing especially as a music producer. It like “wow! That’s how it works! That’s how how this did it! How did he think of that?” Just a great experience. And this track is literally one of the best hip hop songs EVER. EVER.
I remember pulling Daly Wilson Big Band records out of dollar crates in Australia 20 years ago and thinking I had uncovered sampling gold (they got heavy use). I had no idea about the Shook ones connection, remarkable!
In reference to the recent Daft Punk video, I would love to see a video from you (or multiple) about disco, its progression into house and the different ways that relationship has been explored. It's something I've heard and read a lot about, but it's all from disparate sources, and I love hearing your perspective on dance music.
Still probably my favorite rap song all time. Such an dark gritty beat and instrumental. Get a real sense of doom and gloom. Lyrics are mastery and weave in and out to take you on the ride. Video for the song was also very dark and gritty. Got a real sense of the world hav and prod came from.
The thing thing about mobb deep Nas and the relationship to queensbrige is like the story goes nas was looking out his project window and mobb deep was the kids running around in the streets when he look down

I concur.. 😊
I remember when there was a fifteen year wild goose chase trying to figure out what the sample was. The answer was eventuality revealed in 2011.
lol same with Survival Of The Fittest sample
i don't remember who figured it out, though... i just kinda remember that all of a sudden, everyone knew...
Somebody just recently found the sample for "Hell On Earth" (Front Lines)
Everyone was copping the "To Sir, With Love" soundtrack and spending big bucks for it.
He destroyed that sample. And was maybe 18 when he made that album
Q-Tip was a huge part of the making of the Infamous album. He fully produced Give Up The Goods, Temperatures Rising, Drink away The Pain. And he did the drums on Trife Life and Up North Trip. And he added the horns and mixed the drums on Survival Of The Fittest.
That’s Prolific man 🔥🔥 Tip is Hip-Hop through and through
That's why the second album wasn't as strong Qtip bought a lot to that album 🎤🎧🥁🎹💽📀💿
@@keiththomas111 Yea! But you mean third album😊
@@eastnystyle yea I keep forgetting about juvenile hell no doubt 🧐
Tip didnt reveal he was such a champ til waaaay later. how long did we think Shaheed was making most of the beats? ahahaha
Q.U. Hectic is one of my favorite beats of all time. Havoc captured the grittiness and darkness of NY in the 80s and early 90s
100%
Used to play that before every game to get me hyped when I was in high school, no cap
man I was just listening to that last night thinking how dope that beat is and how I slept on it all these years lol
Yup. It's a top 10 mobb song for me.
I was actually blown away when I first learned that the sample in shookones was a slowed down piano.

Yeah I always thought it was a weirdly tuned electric guitar!
cheap equipment (in this case a sampler AKAI i guess but there are some others 2 organic comes as a bonus) meanings not doing smth worth a listen
That beat is absolutely CHILLING... makes it even better when you know the story behind it and hear how all the different sounds come together. This channel is great at explaining hip hop production.
i'm loving this sampling series you've been putting out! it's one thing to show where the samples come from but you elevate it to another level with backstory and insane detail
This!!
I’m not going to lie, but The Infamous might be my favorite record of all time. It’s just minimal and so good.
Infamous is favorite record of all time. It's a great album but it's far ftom a classic. Classic albums are illmatic, reasonable doubt, only built 4 cuban links, enter the wu tang and others I can't remember. If your telling me infamous is better than those albums, you don't know nothing about hip hop
I apologize you said your favorite record of alltime. To each it's own. Everybody has t here own opinion. Sorry about that.

Man, Havoc just on the strength of that track alone, is one of the best producers to do it
True genius!
Q Tip is a national treasure and needs to be protected at all costs
Agreed. Without him my ears would be so damn dirty.
I really like how they use horns and samples to create the sound of nyc subway trains and traffic. I’m just a sucker for that move lol.

Genius lol havoc was thinking 💭 😂😢🔥🔥🔥
Havoc isn’t even one of my personal favourite producers, and i still feel like he goes REALLY underappreciated.
One of the top hip hop songs (of all time) not necessarily skill-wise but seminal in terms of ambience and tone for the genre.
Never knew how much craftsmanship havoc put into this, and for gramps to be musically connected to the legendary quincy. Great stuff.
The crazy thing is… He can explain the beat better than the person that made the beat. He knows some details that didn’t matter to the beat maker. They was throwing stuff and samples on a beat. He is doing the footwork to know about samples, the sounds, the background and the what, when, where and how….TRUE GENIUS
Yeah he has what it takes to be a culture vulture. Don't let that go over ya head ✈️
So what is hi hop. Sampling other music and chopping it and cutting it. It's all stealing from other people music
@krishnaSingh-ow1ie that’s not all hip-hop is. This is just one aspect of it. Majority of hip-hop, especially modern music, doesn’t even use this technique.

Only a troll would say something dumb , leave it to them for something stupid.
@First.last/ m6 h
Can we just agree that the mic audio on these videos is topnotch...just a tasty bonus.
One of the most classic records ever. There are certain songs that blew my mind when i first heard them. This was one, The World is Yours by Nas and Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik by Outkast.... Man, the good old days....
HAVOC is a Genius! So terribly Underrated. Top 10 All-Time. ✌🏾
astounding sampling right there
Just saw them live (Havoc and Noyd) in Dublin, legendary group, the energy was unreal
It's not the same without Prodigy.
@@rebeltvr6046I was so sad when he passed away
What I LOVE about this era is the variety of styles (emcees and producer traits) 🙌
Visited NYC two times as a Clevelander. Walking over the Queensborough Bridge, bumping Shook Ones in my headphones was like a Buddhist visiting Thailand. Was just as awestruck as I was seeing the skyscrapers in Manhattan. Was like 😮🤓😛
The break down and informations behind the beat was amazing!
Again another music history and education video on its highest level 💯💯💯
I pass by QB all the time. Shook Ones II still goes through my head to this day when I'm there.
The soundtrack to my childhood. RIP P.
The opposite eighth note swing joke got me bruh!! Another great piece, mate!!
Incredibly in-depth break down of one of the greatest hip hop tracks of all time. Thank you!
The one word that comes to mind when I hear this song is claustrophobic. The video just adds to the tension. Amazing, intimidating record.
Yeeeeeessssss one of the greatest hip hop beats ever
What the 90s was in hoods like NYC, this guy's really delivered the message.
Love the high quality content. Doesn't matter if your a musician or just a casual fan of the art, everyone can take something from this. Keep it up.
I'm in awe of these sample breakdowns... I remember being a twenty-something listening to this,wondering how they made that sound.
Indeed,it was more complex than most people would realize. 🙀
One of greatest sample flips in history!!!
Man. The spotify playlists are mad appreciated.

Are you aware of Jungle Boogie, Jungle Jazz or any of their other 70's albums? They were jazz/funk before they were pop
@@dreddiknight yes, I am aware! But even their earlier stuff strikes me as more funk than jazz. Maybe it's the horns?

That sample was used for Pac song, Picture Me Rolling, but the sample was sped up to make the perfect sound
It blows me away they were able to produce this at such a young age. One of the greatest beats/raps of all time. simple, menacing,

Man! I greatly appreciate all your hard work developing and creating these wonderful videos about music. Your knowledge and love for music are great to watch. Continue to keep up the great work, and be blessed brother!
I've always thought this is the best Hip Hop beat of all time.
The drums alone in this beat are a master piece they sound so good I think every boombap producer uses it as a gold standard.
This is amazing!
Please consider going into this level of detail on 93 til infinity!
Coldest hip hop beat period
So amazing man, I fucking love this Channel ❤️❤️❤️
🙏
Anyone that listens to hip hop should be required to listen to this song. I honestly feel that way
It’s crazy to me that some people don’t listen to songs over and over trying to pick out samples and sounds I’ll play a song 15 times back yo back trying to catch it I just love it helped me through life
Great breakdown. P is criminally underrated as a rapper and Havoc as a producer.
No clue how your channel popped up on my feed but I love how you break it down especially daft punk and the soulquarians, think I spelled that right lol
Love the channel all the way from texas!
Top 3 rap instrumental of all time
You forgot to say where the bassline cane from...it's what really sets it off...it's the icing on the cake
Oh that beat is just the nuts, just sampled it for myself! Thank you and fantastic insightful video as always.
You got yourself a new follower this was dope how you broke it down and gave interesting facts about the samples 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿 I enjoyed it a lot
The siren is the silent killer in the song. Simply amazing.
I love these breakdowns….YT’s algorithm recommended your channel as I fanboyed hard for Tracklib’s breakdowns and they recommended yours…🎉
Absolutely legendary. Fantastic video
This Chanel deserves way more subscribers even though it’s grow a lot in the past year

Keep on!
That was the comment i was looking for. Big ups to Falk!
MIND BLOWN
I was literally talking to someone about this track yesterday and wondering where the samples came from! Love this type of content thank you 🙏🏽
Are we not gonna talk about how Havoc was only 19 years old when he produced this! Genius and a legend!
Man, this is one of the greatest videos I've ever watched. You earned my subscription and notification bell. Appreciate all of the work you put into this.
Nice clip- forgot the kitchen stove tho…for us back then in nyc the opener was a wrap that tick tick tick…anyway the first song you played also sounds like a sample done by umc’s and is very similar to what shocklee et al did with “sound of the seekers”
"Darkest Fat albert Episode" is even crazier considering Prodigy's Real Name is Albert.
6:56 I'm OBSESSED with this sample. How did they originally do it. I think l remember seeing on youtube them using a horn and blowing it into one of those semi circle sound barrier things AHHHHHHH HELP PLEAS.
wow, what a journey! thank you for exploring and outlining this!
you're my favourite channel at the moment! theses videos are so exciting to watch. keep it going
I'm glad you point out the vernacular of music, because ultimately that's all the "theory" is about is communicating the music to others without being able to hear it. There are almost no hard and fast rules of music.

been needing a channel like this
Rest in Peace P. Great video. You don't miss. Salute.

My mind is completely blown! I'd never hit the subscribe button so hard in my life
Kudos to them I didn’t think the beat was that layered it also made me think about my own boom bap production
The infamous is a top 10 best rap album ov all time ,IMO..the opening with the gas cooker clicking is genius, very best of shows my man ,take care.
this is incredible and deserves more views. thanks for the education!
the fact that we almost lost this masterpiece is insane
