I agree. I was just thinking that yesterday when I was listening to the remix on repeat. I do tho think my favorite all time is between This beat and the one for "U don't Know" by Jay z
@@alexandreavelar9384 dang bro I never really focused on the production side more just the lyrics and the actual rapper, from the discography you just named he def a legend! Any other albums you’d recommend? Or just tracks?
That ill ass sample, over that punchy ass kick, that thick ass snare and those dirty ass high hat. I miss those types of drum kits. Just Blaze = Legend
james myers You know Fab said it wasn't actually saying "breathe" and he had already put together half the song with breathing metaphors n rhymes so Just Blaze said he's gonna change it to say breathe
2022 AND I'M STILL LOOKING THIS BEAT UP TO PLAY! 48 YRS OLD AND THIS JUST THREW ME BACK... I USED TO PRODUCE BEATS MYSELF AND I USED TO SAY WHEN THIS FIRST CAME OUT LIKE YO THAT BASS AND THAT KICK WITH THE PERCS.... SNARES... FUCK!!! STILL CRAZED OUT ON THIS TRACK!!!!!
Just breath, but I can't... they won't let me be Millions of worker bees, they smoked out the collective peace It should had em peeved, but it's like they OD'd Odd... so many facts don't get factored or seen Tearing social fabric seams, they glued to a screen Like they be biting, fighting, and jabbing the spleens Come clean or speak true, they act like that's obscene If I had people in my corner, we would have made a Billie Jean But now I'm running out of steam, like Freddie, he killed my dreams Waking up with a scream, head wet in a cold sweat If trouble comes, they disappear like special effects I have many regrets, but still I put my faith The Lord The flesh is feeble, but the spirit of the word is a sword So my music, it should be reverent, like heavenly chords Been going overboard, was trying to win some awards But the Crown of Life is victory, that's the righteous reward
They were not happy about the sample though. They wanted 100.000$ + earnings from the publishing. Like, bro, chill, it's a sample. Those rock musicians were absolute dickheads when it came to sampling their music.
This Is My Favorite Hip-Hop Song - Instru-Mental - Breathe - David John Jackson MyFabolousLife [Produced By Justin Smith DJ JustBlaze] [Year: 2004] [Album: Real Talk]
I don't give a shit, one of the hardest beats ever. Fab killed it too, I was being a rap snob back in the day, but he crushed it. I love hard piano beats. This, Jadakiss Time is up, Still D.R.E. KRS One Step Into a World. So many dope piano beats. I'm tired so I can't think too hard atm, but my god...give me a hard baseline on some dope violin or piano and I'm all in.
Not sure if this has been mentioned already but when the Beastie Boys rapped their "So What'cha Want" song over this at the Hip Hop Honours it was so good!! Incredible beat!!! ❤️🙏🏼 "Just Blaze" - who did this beat also did a remix for Beastie Boys on their "Ch-Check It Out" song too, so it all ties together ❤️🙏🏼
Unsure if anyone has posted this here yet, but the sample to this beat is Supertramp's "The Crime Of The Century". I love what Blaze does with this beat. He basically takes the rising piano section, plays it all in sections forward, and then plays it in reverse. Those little "Breathe" and "Uh"s you're hearing is a pitched up version of Supertramp's singer Rick Davies. The word "Breathe" is a pitched up version of Davies saying, "...up and see!" How he says the last part is pitched to such a way that if you were to play it fast enough, it'd sound like the end of the word "Breathe". The other "Uh"s are vocalizations that Davies makes in time with the piano at several key points in "Crime of the Century". I feel as though Blaze was given the lyrics to Fabolos' track first before actually making the beat itself, which may have inspired him to dig deep into the wax. It's a really intelligent beat that I feel doesn't get enough credit.
@@generaljemz8985 Eh. That's debatable. Hot song though, but tell me which one do you think is the better beat: Dead Presidents or UGK's International Players Anthem
![Fabolous - Breathe (Official Video) [HD Remaster]](/img/n.gif)
Definitely one of the greatest beats of all time!!! This is personally my favorite , it’s 2023 and I’m still rocking it 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I agree. I was just thinking that yesterday when I was listening to the remix on repeat. I do tho think my favorite all time is between This beat and the one for "U don't Know" by Jay z
@@curtispainjr6136 That one does go hard too!!!
Hell yeahhh that shits hard af!
This beat is nearly old enough to vote and I still can't get over how dope it is
For real. Pure FIRE 🔥
Where are you from
Ur beauty is natural
So true
@@lorenzbeaumacc1175 true
Easily one of the illest beats ever!
EZZZ
Albert Picquet That's a fact
Agreed
Without a doubt
You ain't freakin' lyin'! Even still in 2019 and a half!
One of the hardest beats of all time!!!
jcroque89 true
Early 2000's rap songs had some crazy production
Big Time
The amount of emotion in this beat ....
Just Blaze a Top 10 Producer ALL TIME
That part
shit he top 5 for me. This shit, Exhibit C, Public Service Announcement, Song Cry, Touch the Sky, Compton... fucking legendary
@@alexandreavelar9384 dang bro I never really focused on the production side more just the lyrics and the actual rapper, from the discography you just named he def a legend! Any other albums you’d recommend? Or just tracks?

Been listening to rap since the 90's - I think this is arguably the best beat of all time.
One of the greatest beats ever produced ! 😎🔥
Salute to Just Blaze 👑
i like just blaze and im gay
@@camwelch9948 😐
@@GoldK4L it’s a joke about the posters name and profile picture
Holy shit cool Adam is here
This is top 10 beat of all time. You can ride to it, work out, put it to a suspense/action movie scene
Flawless.
One of Fab's best songs ever.
Gives me chills. That piano....
its not his, its a copy.
@@terrificturk You mean sample
Supertramp
It’s chopped up samples from the original record, it’s beautiful how desperate the tempo of keys are
Blaze has definitely earned his stripes.
10x black belt in this shit
Just Blaze definitely knows how to cook a rocking and energetic beat like this one and public service announcement, great producer
That ill ass sample, over that punchy ass kick, that thick ass snare and those dirty ass high hat. I miss those types of drum kits. Just Blaze = Legend
Last of New York boom bap production
Every block was bumpin the summer jam . It was a very good yeeear.
Just blaze is one of the greatest, this beat is just ridiculous
This is such a cold-blooded beat. I miss this era.
20 the year anniversary. Just Blaze blaze it up.
that beat is crazy..classic.
james myers yup
james myers You know Fab said it wasn't actually saying "breathe" and he had already put together half the song with breathing metaphors n rhymes so Just Blaze said he's gonna change it to say breathe
Matt S yea I remember hearing that story, yup.
One of the craziest flips ever , took this sample to a whole new level. So many chops
Jesus! What a sick beat. I can listen to this on repeat..like.. forever
Imagine a Boxer or UFC fighter walking out to this instrumental 🔥🔥🔥
Mmmmaaannn somebody gonna get dat AZZ whooped.
Get off of your knees.
They r too dumb to find this shi
2022 AND I'M STILL LOOKING THIS BEAT UP TO PLAY! 48 YRS OLD AND THIS JUST THREW ME BACK... I USED TO PRODUCE BEATS MYSELF AND I USED TO SAY WHEN THIS FIRST CAME OUT LIKE YO THAT BASS AND THAT KICK WITH THE PERCS.... SNARES... FUCK!!! STILL CRAZED OUT ON THIS TRACK!!!!!
Breathe!!,...I'm trying, but this beat keeps hitting me in the chest!
*Breathe* ,not breath.
Nobody makes beats like this anymore
Nobody dog!!
blaze gotta be atleast top 15 producers all time man. if not top 10
Maybe the sickest sample flip in the history of rap
its definitely up there.. i wouldnt be mad if someone said it was No.1
That and Eminem's "No Love" and D-12's "Hit Me With Your Best Shot"
Drew TheViper we found an eminem stan
Odeonremix I was going to say the same
MrNelsonmania sample comes from "Crime of the Century" performed by "Supertramp" from their album of the same name that was released in 1974.
Goosebumps every time i hear this beat
one a da hottest beats in my lifetime...
Damn i remember when this came out... Blaze goin crazy with the drum fills.
Just Blaze is truly one of the best to ever make a beat
ESPN played this song as the intro for a Sunday Night game in 2004 between the Ravens and Redskins. I've been addicted to this song ever since.
Although I don't particularly care for the lyrics, I absolutely ADORE the beat. Something to be admired.
One of the greatest beats 🎧 I’ve ever heard.
iconic...one of the best of all time
crazy strong beat AND lyrics AND video
hall of fame track imo
One of the most underrated producers in da game❗❗❗❗
For sure, one of the best beats!
Just breath, but I can't... they won't let me be
Millions of worker bees, they smoked out the collective peace
It should had em peeved, but it's like they OD'd
Odd... so many facts don't get factored or seen
Tearing social fabric seams, they glued to a screen
Like they be biting, fighting, and jabbing the spleens
Come clean or speak true, they act like that's obscene
If I had people in my corner, we would have made a Billie Jean
But now I'm running out of steam, like Freddie, he killed my dreams
Waking up with a scream, head wet in a cold sweat
If trouble comes, they disappear like special effects
I have many regrets, but still I put my faith The Lord
The flesh is feeble, but the spirit of the word is a sword
So my music, it should be reverent, like heavenly chords
Been going overboard, was trying to win some awards
But the Crown of Life is victory, that's the righteous reward
That’s dope
THIS SHIT IS ASS
Just Blaze is a motherfuc** genius 🔥
the ultimate continuous loop song ever, forever
Even better that it samples "Crime of the Century" by Supertramp, one of the most important songs from the 70's imo!
They were not happy about the sample though. They wanted 100.000$ + earnings from the publishing. Like, bro, chill, it's a sample. Those rock musicians were absolute dickheads when it came to sampling their music.
Favorite workout beat! 🏋🏾♀️
This beat was so fire.... mad freestyle

+TheSassacus very much so
TheSassacus Those Pianos in the Chops!!!!.....
Still one of the best beats in 2020 🤟🏽🔥
Fab lucky he got a hold of this beat
I always used to listen to this song because my sister had this CD and it was my first hip hop song that I loved
Fab bodied this, this beat is so out front it will swallow you if don't come hard.
Not sure if this has been mentioned already but when the Beastie Boys rapped their "So What'cha Want" song over this at the Hip Hop Honours it was so good!! Incredible beat!!! ❤️🙏🏼

Nas is like nas is an awsome beat or milkman
J Dilla’s - Runnin’ and Kanye West’s - I Wonder has to be in there somewhere then you got Outkast’s - Da Art Of Storytelling

Listen to the extra drums on the breaks. Of course the sample is ridiculous, but Just puts percussion so perfectly on top it's like a symphony
Kozak w opór !

Banks did drop some bars to this one on one of his Money in the Bank Mixtapes.
Real talk album sounds like g unit
Dank Dank ur prolly talking about poppin them thangs, it’s similar
