Hip Hop Producer & Beatmaker Marco Polo discusses his origin and arrival on the hip hop scene, moving from Toronto to New York City, making beats, life, & much more!

[@CrossbeatsMusicProduction]

Marco Polo has been a favorite producer of mine for a long time, he's evidence that anything can be done if you have the passion and drive to achieve it.

[@NbaLive4ever]

Wow, loved this! Makes me feel like my lack of knowing much music theory shouldn't stop me from making good music. I stop and get unmotivated when I see complex theory stuff from the top guys but in the end like he said, at the end of the day, it's all about making good music (no matter how you did it).

[@BeingAwakeisPainful]

Listen you can read all the manuals on all the programs you use- you can read all the music theory you want BUT if you can’t feel what you’re doing just stop. It’s the feeling before the “know how” theory what theory? You can do it! Swing away.

[@MAARTN]

So glad I discovered this channel, really loving the content!
Marco Polo killing it too, love seeing this dude work on music

[@DaLilMobsta]

I really enjoyed this! This dude is just so real "I don't know none of that shit" hahaha I really needed to here that, this just changed my view a bit... Just make music.

[@stereovind]

Just make shitty music )

[@astrojazzman]

I see that Alphonse Mouzon record he was a dear friend and mentor of mine
RIP

[@komplex_the_producer2819]

It's great to study music but one thing school can't teach you is passion fuck terms just feel it

[@alvinedwards434]

+Unique custom Beats exactly.

[@phenomena17]

YOU NAILED IT!!! exactly what i was thinking the same thing. school is soooo technical and No soul!!! Some of that greatest names in music couldn't afford music. they just practiced and played by ear and heart.

[@chiroxxxrt]

Unique custom Beats sooooooo fuckin true

[@xxxaragon]

studying music and passion don't rule each other out though.

[@miIitaryminded]

Gotta love him man he is brutally honest.
You can’t hate on that.

[@Nigmatics]

Dude is mad chill and humble for the his caliber skill level. Id be an arrogant prick if I was as dope as Marco. Lol.

[@pilgrim5355]

[@anoisebeats5577]

Respect to the big homie Marco Polo.. I've been influenced by his music and motivated by his longevity thus far. Thank you Drum Broker for having a platform to educate and inform the music production community.

[@gigac521]

he just can't make a bad beat

[@davidscott2095]

MP is just so darn real and just lays it out there. He's super underrated and without a doubt in the top 5 to 10 producers in the game today.

[@sp1200fanatic]

Smart move to go with the blue mpc, cigarette smoke stains won't show #chainsmoker

[@jessejamesmartin6415]

I think he was more concerned with having a CF card reader I dont think he gives a flux about his MPC being gritty and grimy :)

[@zdkrec]

Elegante!!!!
