Rhythm Roulette: Parker Corey (of Injury Reserve) | Mass Appeal

- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- The Arizona rap trio Injury Reserve put Tempe on the map with a series of eclectic releases ranging from 'Live from the Dentist Office' to, most recently, 'Drive It Like It's Stolen.' Throughout their catalog, beatmaking duties were handled by producer Parker Corey, who's proven himself to be a master of multiple styles.
For the latest edition of MASS APPEAL's Rhythm Roulette, Corey pulled up to Poo Bah Records in Pasadena California, accompanied by Ritchie With a T (Stepa J. Groggs apparently had other pressing business to attend to). In accordance with the time-honored Rhythm Roulette ground rules, PC tied a bandana over his eyes and selected three records at random, then headed back to the lab to see what sort of a beat he could fashion from his vinyl haul.
"First off we got Minister Keith Pringle and the Pentecostal Community Choir-looks like the most potential right now," said Corey, surveying the sampling options at hand. Next up was something called 'Compilation Menu,' which presented tracks by various artists in restaurant menu format, and finally 'Mythical Kings and Iguanas' by the American songwriter and poet Dory Previn. "This shit is really about iguanas!" Parker exclaimed with enthusiasm. "Yeah-we're gonna do it!"
Slouched on a nearby couch, Ritchie With A T looked up from his phone and predicted, ominously, that "One of these is going to be like, a classic album, and we're just gonna get grilled for it!"
Undeterred by Ritchie's warning, Parker plunged right into the random collection of sounds, laboring over his laptop for hours until Stepa J. Groggs showed up and Ritchie began dancing. Check out the latest episode of Rhythm Roulette to watch Corey in the kitchen and see what sort of heat he cooked up.

"We are ⅔ of injury reserve" hits different now
Rip groggs 🙏🏽
Rip Groggs
Rip Groggs
2/3 of injury reserve, one whole of by storm. RIP groggs
They mad cos this ain't that jazz rap - it that spaz rap
Narrator music what lyric is that from again?
where'smytaco04 Its from Oh shit
Raised by the internet taint have no dad shit
We like it because we were raised by the internet and had no dad (rap)
Killing with the composition it's the rappack
Coming back to this video still in shock that groggs is no longer alive. This one hit me extremely hard. Rest in power Jordan Alexander Groggs
:/
first words of the video; "we're two thirds of injury reserve"
such a shame but also there's something about that sentence that gets me. long live groggs forever 1/3 of injury reserve
I only see comments trashing the haters, but no haters lmfao. must've gotten buried
lmao same
@@jakedrk7988 was here initially, was embarrassing. A guy even responded on twitter with own version of one of the samples. was fucking dumb
this is one of the most interesting uses of samples I've seen on this show. and the beat actually revolves around the samples. parker didn't make the sounds palatable by throwing a bunch of synths and instruments on top of them like other artists on this show did, he made the samples themselves interesting and listenable.
The Naive Vigilante it’s like, reverse russ haha
so many dislikes cause people are disappointed parker corey actually experiments and doesn't just throw 808s and rattling hi hats over a loop smh
he put an 808 on it
dont downplay that either
@luv crtny You said it - respect for experimenting, but the beat sounded unrealised and random. to be honest though, I could not work with people hanging around, or a f'kin camera lol. totally unnatural, and the fractured anxious beat reflects that pretty well loool
I saw a like on the comment I made which prompted some further thought, and I'm going to back track a bit. This roulette result was pretty lacklustre, however, the guy is far more creative than 99 percent of producers I see. Problem is its 99 percent more difficult to turn stuff like that into actual cohesive tracks, let alone being put on the spot to do it. On that note, one can't make much of a judgement of this guys ability based on the result of this roulette. If anything its a testament to how much trial and error is required to get to the end point when having a more abstract approach
i love u
super fucking interesting beat. this guy really does know what hes doing, if you heard the rest of the crew on that beat then no one would really be complaining. they really do make that shit work.
put Peggy on one of these damn
REST IN POWER STEPA J GROGGS.
R.I.P.
What happened
@@yabseragrassini5086 He passed away from some sort of Alchol related incident. If you listen to him a lot he talks about his problems with drinking in his songs.
People in these comments clearly not used to Injury Reserve smh
I couldn’t find a single hate comment but I could find many telling everyone to stop hating
Alpine Productions ik
Alpine Productions there were a fuck of a lot more when this first came out. The like to dislike ratio was like 40:60 too.
yeah you read all 903 comments on this? that's fucking crazy man.
When the video came out it was soooooooo bad. Every comment was yo wtf is this shit. Now it seems to have turned.
fancy seeing you here, 16 year old eli
This production is totally injury reserves style. i hate when people watch these videos and only expect traditional hip hop and bangers. producers have style too ya know
I love it when he loads the 808 in the drum rack and his homie looked up from his phone real quick. This beat is straight gas.
I peeped that too
My dude Parker killing it with the Mitski shirt
This dude has the most unique production style out there... is amazing how he chops the samples and manipulates them like rubber.
You can tell Ritchie wanted to get all over this track. I love that these guys work so closely together that Parker knows exactly what makes the other two tick.
"This shit's really about iguanas" xd
Bruh why don't they have the finished instrumentals posted to a soundcloud or something? I wanna hear the whole thing real bad
For real. I feel like this has wasted my time badly.
maybe they think the process is all people need to see
@@callimmer but the end product matters too
Injury Reserve could rap over that beat and it’d be fire
Everyone roasting his beat and shit but the real question is why is his turntable on the floor
It's the most solid place for it because any kind of vibration will affect the needle/sound quality of the record
Josh Beck like vibrations from walking?
It’s because he doesn’t use turntables so he had no space for it and put it on the floor.
Turntable floorgang confirmes
The fact that Parker said "we're 2/3 of Injury Reserve" with Ritchie only is scary yet so sad
Kiko / Jabari / Romil / Joba when ?
The Gandzio brockhampton squad lol
kyoto graphic during AAT joba was also a producer. I don't really know if Roberto does a producer stuff.
The Gandzio jabari, kiko merley, romil hardly even sample tracks.
The Gandzio yeah. Sampling is always better than making your own elements from scratch.
Dom got a sampler recently
It pains me that we didn't get to hear Grogs and Ritchie rap over this.
hey man, he up there cooking up with Dilla and DOOM in a much better place 🙏
first of all this beat isnt trash. second of all if Ritchie and Stepa were spitting y'all would be all over this heat.
exactly
Good music is relative. Your opinion means nothing
@@big_ol_ball838 Means as much as yours does.
ILOVECODY very true
this is actually v good, thanks parker for not sounding like anyone else
i must be the only one that thought this was dope as hell
Earl Sweatshirt will kill this beat
Yall obviously dont know injury reserve if you think this is trash. They use experimental beats, I thought it was pretty cool.
Doug they’ve never been this experimental this is just bad
BEEFISBURGERS Honestly I couldn't hear them rapping over this but I think it sounds pretty cool
Doug Just because you know who they are doesn’t make that beat they submitted any damn good... it was horrible!!
😂😂 he w3nt beyond experimental into something metaphysical.
This is just like the “look mama i made it” beat and that shit slaps, if just have someone rapping on it makes more sense
This is his style it isnt for everyone but i dig it
one of the most impressive rhythm roulettes ive seen yet. dope
Get the avalanches on here
I've been saying the exact same for ages now... one of my all time fav groups; watched them at glastonbury last year and they killed it
Avalanches would take years just to pick the record store
Joseph Van Harn 😂😂😂😂
as much as i would love to see this happen, i'm sure it never would
MF'IN RIGHT
DEAR MASS APPEAL:
drop a compilation of all these tracks, goddamn
Ahhh I fucking love this room!!
Sarah2ill 2ill
Your room is better Sarah !
You have the best room Sarah!!
except for the speaker arrangement :D
The Acoustics will be awful with all those windows
I guarantee most of the comments didnt even wait until it was finished, i thought it was awful at first but the finished product is fantastic
Legit the only reason yall hating on Parker is because the 808 doesn't hit on the downbeat smh
Joel Somich that's fair
If theres no down beat how are these simps supposed to find the rhythm? Lol this shit was hard
Sly MiG I’m not sure if this comment is a joke but you really don’t need a beat pad to make beats lmao
Adam s look up injury reserves music then look up that guys freestyles on his channel then you be the judge who has more room to talk. Ya lol
Nah, hating because non of the beat hits at all.
I hate hip hop fans sometimes
^ this is why
Luke b Bibi by BJJ BJJ BJJ CV BJJ CV CG CV CG BJJ BJJ BJJ bunko HB
Welcome to the Internet......
Luke bro, stop hatin man. Hip hop heads are the best kind of people. Let the music flow cuz
I hate people that hate criticism.
easily one of the best, most unique & groundbreaking producers of our generation. keep doing your thing!
RIP Groggs. Gone way too soon!
Took me a little bit to get my ears adjusted to the actual beat and now I love it, pretty dope in its totality.
Given the new album I think this video has aged beautifully
When i first watched this i was like "what kinda DAW is that? Looks like math", now it's just Ableton💀
Injury reserve make amazing music and Parker is an amazing producer, but this definitely isn't his best. I highly recommend everyone to check out their studio projects before they go and hate on Parker. I saw them live a few days ago and Parker does some crazy stuff live too.
Why are y’all hating on injury reserve mam come on. They’re one of the best experimental hip hop outfits out right now
also ritchies growing his hair out again? sweet
Ron Weasley makes a sick beat
My favorite producer
Literally inspired me to download DAW
Self-titled LP is such a candy for ears in terms of sound
RIP Jordan
One of my favourite episodes!
Rest in Paradise, Groggs 💛
There was fire in those first 2 samples
Damn right there was!!!!
yea, i'm already looking for those songs!
Yep but that's not his style
Brain exploded, when he skipped over those...

Dory Previn
this is my favorite beat ive ever heard on rhythm roulette. great work! shout to parker and injury reserve
This is definitely some if the most entertaining non-content-content I've ever seen.
There's a lot of haters in the comments who don't seem to realize that RR is not meant to be a masterclass on how to make a sampled beat. The guy made a quick beat from 3 records, and you are all acting like it's supposed to be the greatest beat that graced hip hop. If you're a producer you should already know that everyone makes bad beats, even veterans you look up to, and if you're just a music listener and judging the beat he made, you should try making music because I guarantee you it wouldn't be as good Parker's beats on the stuff he does with IJ.
Ali Chaudry I agree, and I feel everyone here is expecting boom bap Beats as their standards, when Parker is not that kind of producer
+Missing In Action exactly. not every freaking producer who comes up here is going to take that direction man. he stayed true to his style and made something he and his artist were satisfied with. isn't that what we make music for?
I hear u but the beat is so wack. The drums are not even in pocket smh 🙉👎. This is honestly the worst rhythm roulette episode I have seen since I started watching it like 5 yrs. ago. Im not hating either I like a lot of injury reserved tracks. Im just thinking he had bad luck with the three records he picked. Anyway im glad this episode is over with 😆
RIP GROGGS
finally parker gets the spotlight!
that was sick, anyone hating just wants everyone to make the same kind of beats.
RIP GROGGS 😢
This that spaz rap
REST IN POWER GROGGS
this is honestly one of my favorites
Rest In Peace to a real one 🙏🙏
that beat was pretty crazy tf are you all talking about
avery shyra ikr earl will kill this beat
avery shyra yes bro wtf is going on. It's solid
rip groggs
First off, this kid sounds fried 😂 love it. Second off, FIRE!!!!
didn't think it was that bad, actually liked it a bit, sounds like some shit flume would do just more experimental
That beat would make a really dope short instrumental interlude
THIS WAS FANTASTIC WHAT ARE PEOPLE ON ABOUT
Beat is fucking fire
wow everyone in these comments needs to go listen to your mainstream trap beats, this beat was fucking fire. obviously everyone that disliked never listened to injury reserve or any experimental artist before
Y'all tripping hard as hell this shit really good
why this have so many dislikes lol y’all tripping man
Fucking love Injury Reserve. And that beat was pretty good man.
Flying Lotus
Dibiase
Mndsgn
Toro y Moi
Tame Impala
SiR
Knxwledge
Devon Who
Can we take a second to appreciate this dudes using a fucking trackpad
this was fire!
this is better than most things in mainstream rap. this guy is an actual good producer who doesn't just alter a sample slightly and throw drums and an 808 on it. legit if you think this is shit you have no good taste in music and are an idiot
Love injury reserve's style, that beat is dope
man this video is humbling everytime. Dude is just like so many of us producers he has hits and misses just like the rest of us.
we demand primo!!!!
Hamaad good luck
Hamaad I agree he obviously did not try in this tbh
would rather have alchemist or madlib considering primo said he will never do it on camera.
"Preemo"
G1ne Productions closest we got is Statik Selektah
RIP Groggs :(
Yeah, the people on here saying this is trash...definitely didn't listen to Injury Reserve before. Check out their albums Floss or Drive Like Its Stolen to get a better feel for Parker. To me, the beat was not bad.
This series EASILY has the worst fanbase i've ever seen. Every episode gets a shit ton of dislikes if it isn't some generic ass old school beat.
Final product feels like madlib I like it
if someone rapped on this itd be amazing
Great beat! Parker is insanely talenter!
i wish all these dusty old dogs in the comments would step into 2018
sky here we go with the typical "dusty" and "old" comment because we don't like some experimental bull shit. It's like oh he don't like this wanna be edgy trash, he must be old and out of touch. Fuck outta here
Im 23.. This was bad
CRAP IS CRAP
Edit Productions 23 is too young to be acting like u can’t hold ur pee anymore and ur memory’s fading away
I’m 12 this beat is trash
people saying theres hate comments when there are none
i dont know wtf yall are talking about, this was dope
4:31 how my mum looks at me when i walk past the dishes, 5:28 how i look back when i know im not doing them and going to sleep
That beat's insane
anyone else coming back to this vid after the october 8th show in chicago? best show i’ve ever been to
stop hating on injury reserve they fire and parker is a great producer
he maybe a great producer... but he didn't produce anything great here... sounded like a 6 year old coulda done that
There was no hate involved here...that was just terrible....plain and simple!
Neither of those two points have any bearing on whether or not THIS beat is any good.
@whoisjiminy....then why are YOU responding with this comment...just like our opinion...neither does your opinion on this as well bruh!
@whoisjiminy my bad, i was under the assumption that you were commenting on LASYTRAVELR and I's comment..
Bro nathaniel just sitting in the back is so funny for no reason
That room is beyond beatiful, unfortunately i cant say the same for the acoustics that room has lol
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ALL MY LIFE!!!!!!!
Cool beat, haters trippin
He’s so cute when he’s concentrating on making that beat
Y’all sleeping on IR these boys are fucking 🔥
Rip Groggs 🙏
Man I used to watch these all the time, those were the days
Yo that beat was fire. 🔥🔥🔥🔥.
my comment is the only comment that matters: this is so gooooood. i’m always surprised by parker’s ability to create some bonkers sounds that i’ve never heard before, i am very happy he makes music, along with the rest of IR. their sound is sooooo futuristic. i wanna download this beat. PARKER I KNO UR READING THIS, GOOD STUFF AS USUAL!!!!! KEEP DOIN U
i really like this beat tbh
