he was not cooking with that, dont stroke it, its a basic mid predictable answear just like his ''production''... every real beatmaker knows metro is just average with great connections
damn yall brought back memories on those 2010's records metro did. i deadass remember being in high school just enjoying all those projects back then. looking back now those records had so much influence on me being a producer today and I'm sure many others frfr
Much love for your website and cymatics who really help and support the people that can't just buy drum kit and MIDIs ... they supply A LOT for free, and also the licensing .... They the best in the game for so called "internet producers" Much love
Ive had the privilege of growing up listening to timbo, Pharrell & Dre and now too see them pass the torch to the linked of merto, mike will & hitboy, is insane ! 🔥
Metro is from my generation. That’s how most of our generation started making beats. The cracked version of FL Studio was king. It was all about trial & error.
11:12 His ability to create and mimic rhythms with his mouth is INSANE, it's one thing to approximate, but he got the tone of the kick drum and the sound of the hi hats in "I Just Want to Love You" exactly as they sound on the record.
@HomieDoMore he produced utopia with Travis his vocas are in stop trying to be God, the outro. Kanye made songs with him In the past, my fav song is lost angel nights and into the red, has couple of songs in metro BOOMIN spiderman album like none violent communication, dude is a musical genius if u didn't know, and don't ask me, ask youtube
This right here.....this is what we need more of! Egos removed and 100% honesty and realness, so we can get back to the business of music and creativity. Thank you for this masterclass of an interview!
This is is the best thing ever as a kid I was bopping to Timbs beats as a teenager I absolutely got obsessed with Metro had all his projects to the point where I wanted to be a producer watching this was amazing for me
Finally I've got to see an interview with Timberland. The best producer everrrrr.... Oh my. I know his sound from a mile away. Can not be replicated. Atall. His sound is like a voice, you know it when you hear it.
Man, I grew up as a kid in the late 90s and I remember at some point music just clicked for me. As a listener, I remember being broke but my mom had an old station wagon with some shitty radio. I cherished every time a dope hip-hop song came on. I'd take control of the radio. And man, I know Timbaland and Pharrell stood out. I knew what I liked but I wouldn't always know names until I realized I had to pay attention to the radio hosts announcing who it was. This was in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It got to a point that I now had names and my neighbor, where we eventually moved, had better Internet than us and a better PC. He was older but showed me how he downloaded music on Napster and then Kazaa. I asked him to burn me some CDs, which he eventually did. I worshipped those CDs. I started learning from the internet what album names were or if I went to a store, I'd look around. Back then they had a huge CD section. I'd go through it. Missy Elliott became a go-to. Eminem was huge too eventually by 2000. Justin Timberlake eventually with Timbaland and Pharrell helping producing his albums. Especially Timbo. Mystikal, Jay-Z were others that stood out. But what blew my mind was later, we left the US and an uncle had us move to France from spending a year in Colombia where my family is from. There, a library had a music section. I could take CDs home for free. Case and all. I had to return it every week. I'd take like 3 at a time. I started learning about so many more artists! It expanded my horizons. I liked some rock and metal but there I got into so much more. And rappers too! But then I learned about producers and I learned Timbaland and The Neptunes made so many of my favorite songs! I started taking home all the albums I could find. And I asked the girl there. She knew a lot about music in general. And then faster internet was a thing. And man did I spend hours on Wikipedia reading anything and everything. Who's connected to who, and where from, how, what year, names of albums. Maaaan, even being broke there, I downloaded albums. But it leas me to value it so much and understand they deserves my money. When I started getting money, I made it my goal to buy everything I ever wanted and new stuff too. I still collect CDs to this day and especially now that streaming underpays my favorite artists and bands.
for those who weren't old enough.....you gotta understand how TImbo changed the game....we'd wait with excitement to see what strange sounds he would use....and how you couldn't predict his drums, etc.
metro is magic, super ears, special magic. without warning is stright up a feature film from another dimension, the original avengers type album that made me a die hard fan its a WHOLE MULTIDIMENSIONAL EXPERIENCE.
I love this but man I wish they would've played some of their hits together while in the studio......I got so many I'd love to discuss with Timbo if I was a journalist
first comment since 2013, but wish metro new what timb was talking about when he is specific about songs, seems like he has no idea most of the time. feels like it would make for a better conversation
Timbaland talking bout simplicity, but I distinctly remember this nigga putting burps, car crashes, super mario jump sounds, godzilla roars and a beat switch on every verse when he was really doing his thing. Go figure 🤷🏿 P.s shit was toooo 🔥 tho 😂
I start making beats bc of timbo. I’m 35. Timbo was my time. There was absolutely NOTHING in music that sounded like him. He didn’t need a tag. Back then, producers didn’t need tags. You knew who it was Edit: And what he did with missy and Aaliyah, forever goat.
Timbaland has such a unique ear he created the most unique sounds like that 1st Missy album crazy
Right? So original and creative!
Timbo spilled some real wisdom in this. We need him making collabs for producers like this
NIGGA BEEN STEALING STYLES
what were ur takeaways from this wisdom-wise?
Subbed to your channel bruh.. you got a dope sound.. i'd be down to collab... thats chinese trump beat is CRAZY, i love that beat
"do you see music or do you hear it?" ..."I feel It"

Alc too

Timbo is a legend man. Probably the most important person of the 2000s! His sound elevated hip hop rnb AND pop! To this day
11:12 His ability to create and mimic rhythms with his mouth is INSANE, it's one thing to approximate, but he got the tone of the kick drum and the sound of the hi hats in "I Just Want to Love You" exactly as they sound on the record.
He beatboxed on a majority of those records…I have a dope some Timbo Drum Kits
I was trying to figure that track out lol I knew I was close but thanks for this comment
*BEST conversation Rolling Stone has facilitated and filmed in a LONG TIME, thankyou to whoever made this happen*
Facts!!
Imagine someone on your Mount Rushmore telling you your the guy. Your forefathers being proud has to be a wonderful feeling
It's not genuine. It's about business. He's not that good
@@ksager123 search for Metro Booming Red Bull symphony concert on UA-cam might give you a different perspective
Father Strtech my Hands P1 and Superheroes are my Metro Boomin's Forever Songs
Father stretch my hands and superhero’s 🔥
Timberlands
Jigga what and they not ready beats are crazy an my favorite beats
He didnt make father stretch my hands beat. Kanye just wanted it in there for style
Neptunes, timbo and Ye are my favourite producers
What about clams casino
What about Swiss? No just blaze? No rza?
What about Dr.Dre
@@SynthSoundscapes23 not in my top 3
Neptunes, timbo, and Swizz are mine
Prefer them to Dre to be honest
When 2 🐐's meet. Young & old🔥🔥🔥
Tim was referring to REDRUM by 21 when he was talking about simplicity, but Metro aint make that London did lol
Metro was still noddin his head taking credit and shit lol
I haven't watched the whole thing yet but maybe he was talking about runnin'?
@@doncolleaun9776or maybe he didn’t want to embarrass him for not knowing what he was talking about 😂
I caught that too I was like wait but didnt london make redrum lol unk thought dat was metro 😂
😂
Good to see the collaboration and respect for each others craft. Legendary
A Metro x James Blake album and on top of that Timbo wanting to be involved and help make that album!!?!?! That album gonna change lives
no it’s not lol. we say this with every album and it all stays the same
@@Joela393you read my mind LOL
Hold onnn, the James Blake and Metro????? For real????
Who the hell is James Blake?
@HomieDoMore he produced utopia with Travis his vocas are in stop trying to be God, the outro. Kanye made songs with him In the past, my fav song is lost angel nights and into the red, has couple of songs in metro BOOMIN spiderman album like none violent communication, dude is a musical genius if u didn't know, and don't ask me, ask youtube
2 Legends = GOAT conversation 👑
😂😂😂 ok
@@ksager123 your in denial 😂😂
@@rodrigoorozco9263 nah. You are. Metro ain't on the level of Tim
@@ksager123 I agree with that but you can’t deny metro has been doing his thing for the past decade, metro has been going crazy these last few years
@@rodrigoorozco9263 he's been better lately, but nothing too crazy. Imo
This right here.....this is what we need more of! Egos removed and 100% honesty and realness, so we can get back to the business of music and creativity. Thank you for this masterclass of an interview!
Omg this is awesome more interviews like this please. Timberland is a great producing mentor. The James Blake idea was spot on! He has great ideas.
This is is the best thing ever as a kid I was bopping to Timbs beats as a teenager I absolutely got obsessed with Metro had all his projects to the point where I wanted to be a producer watching this was amazing for me
This is a dream come true interview. Please keep doing these. Id pay for this
Timberland and Metro this is phenomenal!!!! To see them two together!!!! ✌🏾
Finally I've got to see an interview with Timberland. The best producer everrrrr.... Oh my. I know his sound from a mile away. Can not be replicated. Atall.
His sound is like a voice, you know it when you hear it.
Timbaland is the greatest producer of all time. His work with Aaliyah, Missy, and JT are timeless music 🎶

You’ve done more for the producer community then metro frfr

Watching Timbo pass the torch to metro is beautiful
