  • With a little help from Justin Bieber, Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito” rocketed to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 and has stayed there for an impressive nine weeks and counting. It even surpassed Eminem’s “Rap God” as the most popular song in Genius history. The track is produced by Mauricio Rengífo and Andrés Torres, and the pair sat down with Genius to explain how their smash hit came together for the latest episode of Deconstructed.

    Genius is really doing a great thing with these "making of" videos, not only for fans but especially for aspiring producers. You can imagine in the 70s wanting to be a producer or engineer, hearing all the hits on the radio, and dying to know what went through the producer's mind, or how the session was broken down. Producers today are spoiled in that way, but forever grateful for platforms like Genius that give an up-and-comer a glimpse into the inner workings of an actual hit song.

      very true. there's always an element of mystery with any production. producers today have many resources and 'behind the scenes' peaks - however, to be great, it is not only about exposure and availability - it is about application. for artists, the choice to be successful is always in our own hands regardless of resources. great production in this. congrats to these two. x

      Real shit !!! Congrats Genius, i'm a beginner, i'm studying a lot FL Studio 20 !!! And when u see the biggest guys of the music working on it....YOU SEE IT'S POSSIBLE, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? FOCUS, AND PRACTICE....AND THEN, IN A FEW YEARS WE ARE GONNA SAY: WE DID IT !!!
      I always loved rap music, and to freestyle with my friends (who couldn't do it haha) when i was 14 or 15 ... now I'm 26, and learning how to make beats and put all my lyrics on it.... Thanks GENIUS, im learning a lot with you guys...the Kid Cudi episode was freaking awesome.... THANKS, and greetings from Brazil !

      @@marktrejos7647 The fact you call them 'beats' makes you sound oh so amateur. Maybe you are. These things are called songs you know. It's not as easy as annoying 808 basses and hats copy and pasted. Trap's dying anyway. More quality music is back. Where you record a full synth part from start to finish on guess what?? A REAL SYNTH. Yep, genius. Not fucking serum or whatever bullshit.

      @@bw2937 jesus chill out old head u have to respect the new generation because without them music wouldn't still be going as big as it does, sure some producers put little effort in but it doesn't need to be complex, why use an expensive synth when u can get something that sounds the same for much cheaper in a software form, its called technological advance dummy, analogue sound will always be better than software but software is where its going and it makes it much easier to make music

      @@bw2937 lol I'm 16 too I guess we have different views and I respect it, but I'm saying like computers are great for music now just makes for a more efficient workflow and the not all trap songs are simple there are alot of layers to them some of them are shitty though so I get what u mean and I respect it, I produce old school hip hop and trap sometimes and drill
