- Watch as Havoc creates magic in our studio.
The other week, if you 'Like' us on Facebook (if you don't, get on that), you may have seen our live stream of our studio session with Havoc. The OG producer and rapper was in NYC promoting his upcoming album with another talented beatsmith, Alchemist (The Silent Partner), and stopped by to give our users a behind-the-scenes look at his creative process when it comes to beat-making.
For those that missed the live stream, you can catch what went down above. Havoc actually did two different beats, you'll notice things switch up in the second half of the video, but they both sound extremely dope. Who wants them? (!!). Hav also narrates his process for us, and even gets to freestyling over his beat towards the end of the video.
Take a look above, and be sure to cop The Silent Partner when it drops on Friday.

criminally underrated producer and MC. king of dark, grimey instrumentals
I concur.
YES!

King of grimey beats is Alc, my man!

2) Lyricaly Destroy it
THEN
3) PRODUCE the album it goes on.
THEN
4) REPEAT the process SUCCESSFULLY for 30 year's
Congratulations Havoc
R.I.P. Prodigy
Two of the BEST that EVER did it!!!
An all time master producer who is underrated.
prodigy would kill this beat
Doe Ellis - booking easy one for King Prodigy!! 👌🏾💯
R.I.P.
Yooo he would damn man :/ shieet we always loose the best
no doubt .
This dude is an underrated legend and still got a flow better than 90% of today's industry. He also just did a Rhythm Roulette where he sampled off three records so get off his knob about youtube sampling. Sometimes youtube may have rare songs that are hard to find on vinyl or CD
When he pitched the sample down 🔥🔥🔥
Talk about soul snatching...
Making a beat from scratch does not include samples nor pre recorded loops hope u know
he made the signature grimey filthy Mobb sound from mid 90's when he found that dark loop and darkened it up even more. I knew as soon as I heard that, that was gna be it
The sample of the second beat is "Me Tin Proti Stagona Tis Vroxis - Dimitris Psarianos" written by Manos Hadjidakis it's a Greek song,proud to see music of my country being sampled by Havoc! Respect!
What about the sample for the first beat?
What about this isn't from scratch it's not from scratch using samples people
Havoc, a living fucking legend!
TheRabbitBunny Facts
Havoc is definitely one of the goats. I think this was done just for this purpose. He has an immense catalog and record collection, he's any actual dj that spins records. He's highly capable of producing a beat from scratch.
who else still jams to Mobb deep like they dropped yesterday
🙋🏾♂️🙋🏾🙋🏾♂️🙋🏾
Havoc cemented himself as a legend in '96. When the bass line kicks in at the start of "Animal Instinct" instant stank face! Perfect start to a perfect album.
The start of your ending made me realize this guy was made for this shit
Shook Ones & Cradle 2 the Grave...
I sample whatever sounds good. Television show themes, commercials, eerie movie sounds, etc. You have to look at the whole picture. There are so many sounds in this world that most "producers" won't even think about using because they are so stuck doing what they are accustomed to doing. Not me. Constant evolution over here.
Same here. I can't tell you how many times I heard some dope shit from video games, TV shows an all.
you 2 are so right.... watch the rythm roulette of "Oh No" (brother of madlib) you guys will be surprised what he flipped! :)
Notellu well said.
Notellu shut up you don't sample anything cuz you're doing nothing with your life.
Notellu. Which rappers have rapped over your beats?
That freestyle though
Fit perfectly into that beat 🔥
Just when I thought he was getting soft with that first beat.. He slaps me with the second beat..damn
MORE TO COME. UP STAIRS HEAVEN.
Legendary.
infamous
Havoc's bassline sounds in sync with the beat takes you to a war drum place kinda of vibe. #Infamous
Havoc is my favourite producer of all time, I literally use Maschine and make beats the exact same way as him
I only bought Maschine because I saw him use it. lol
My guy also. So pumped when I began producing to see my favorite group’s producer used the same equipment...
2024.. who here now? Havoc is hands down my favorite top 5 rapper/producer to ever walk this earth. Mobb Deep raised me 🤍🤟. When The Infamous dropped I bought it the same day (still have the exact CD) and my life in skateboarding and hip hop changed that day forward. Bought every album after that also. Much love Havoc, and RIP Prod we miss you.
this dude is one of the most slept on...make the nice beat then Humm some melody then freestyle a quality verse all in one with originally....shyt you cant get 1/10 of that from you 90% of your "top dudes nowadays.
imon361 lmao Fr
Only good artists can make it look easy.
i started off an Iphone and couple months of saving and wanting to try something new, i bought my first Akai Professional MPC Element kit. You can be anyone or do anything you want, just push yourself towards it.
Queens Bridge MOBB
Charlie Corleon lol, what? You bought a kit for your iPhone program?
Yup iOS producers taking over 🔥
HAVOC is a music genius.... he's been in the game doing this heavy!!!
hearing his thought patterns are confirmation that im on the right track. they're so similar.
lol its not rocket science
smart asses like you usually take really long to put anything out. all that snarky overthinking got you too busy to handle your own shit.
Very accurate man, despite the "smart asses" part, I over think shit more than I should allow myself to and it really sucks.
+The Thoro Network 😁

One of my favorite producers hands down! When making my tracks, he's always been one of my influences.
Your track? You famous artist or somehing ? Wow. Hvoc is a legend.
this dude Havoc be in his zone and shit Lord bless him so fondly cause his brother from another mother AKA my favorite MC of all time prodigy has left us although Illuminati or so has snatched him away from us Havoc one of the greatest emcees as well 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
Havoc a legend. #MobbDeep!
One of the best producers ever in my opinion! The freestyle at the end is on the Silent Partner album it’s called “Buck 50’s & Bullet Wounds”
Hav is a complete artist...slept on he came out the golden era
He’s a Genius he’s 1 the best at that Doing Dark beats 🎧 I just got inspired 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
no kap 👌
shut up it does not matter where you get your samples from all that matters is the beat when its done. People have beat on trash cans and recorded hits. Music is experimental and there is no right or wrong way art is just original and personal to the person doing it.
yup
tell em

You sort of have the right idea, but there is more to it than that. Downloading tracks off CZcams means the file is compressed and has a lot of its dynamics and sonic quality diminished.
If you're serious about sampling, you would consider this an important factor and maybe dig online for a FLAC or wav file of the track you wish to sample, but if at all possible, sample the record yourself. But if you're not serious about it, well.....
I would also question your "people have beat on trash cans and recorded hits" comment. Can you send me a link to these "hits"? It's possible trash cans have been recorded as a percussive element in a track, but don't get carried away.
Music is art, but don't be using that as an excuse to take shortcuts and produce sub standard music. What do you want your musical legacy to be? Trash cans on cut up tracks off youtube? Fuck outta here...
Silent partner a future classic. Still on repeat
Real talk..Hav's best solo effort by far
I used to think that way till I heard Oddisee talk about sampling off youtube, you gotta embrace change do not run from it. why all these rules?? hiphop is about breaking rules and doing something new.
I really don’t want to see this man going especially after knowing p is gone😞 this guy here is my favourite rapper/producer of all time imo as well as rza
LEGEND!!
I like the fact that he didn't make none a that trap shit. Trap has a million and one instruments crammed in there with no dynamic sound. what he did I true to the essence of rap/hip-hop
7000 instruments with bunch of reverb
Exactly
more like 3,000 synths & some reverb..these cats cant even play an instrument these days
lol older producers couldnt play instruments either haha thats why they all sampled and shit you act like every producer used to lowkey be mozart
+michael chavez that is true but these new cats make pill popping slow mo music that sounds like it's from Transylvania
Man these drums know but stay cool
Last beat was fire too.
That verse was from "Buck 50s & Bullet Wounds" featuring Method Man.
Make sure you call the fire department before listening cause it's *FXCKING FIRE!*
I love the build up into the making of that second beat , it gets me in the mood and inspired to make some raw beats
4:53 Mobb Deep is in da House 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sounds very crisp and clean.
Cameraman, go home! You're drunk.
Havoc is one of the most underrated producers and MCs ever
temperature rising and uncut raw ..are my favorite HAVOC beat. ..rip. .to killer black
It doesn't matter where or what you sample from people just keep sampling alive keep doing it it's the essence of hip hop.
I absolutely LOVE these makin' beats from scratch videos. Havoc is the man, dunn, word up.
I needed this, real hip-hop.
Maschine is beast. Havoc uses it well. Who cares where the sample comes from.
This was so inspiring. The man that made Trife Life, among other of my favorite Mobb Deep tracks. Thank you so much
I just heard the story of how havoc got into producing in the early 90s dope ass story
drop some knowledge
Where u find it bruh
U know he raps aswell?
Prodigy was first to produce out of the two but he preferred rapping so taught hav.. RIP P
Krishan Prodigy's book "My Infamous Life"
People are really stupid complaining about sampling from youtube and trash talking Maschine, Any great producer will sample from what ever the fuck they want and the Maschine is a great machine and at the end of the day it doesnt matter what you use.
One of my fav producers and Mcs ever. Respect HAVOC, Big up MOBB
That beat is out of the park that gritty shit I like that 90s sound
So simple yet so potent... Beautifully crafted by a master beat maker...
5:01 Yeah!!! Man😊😊😊God that last beat...then he was filling it out, and started spittin 🔥🔥
I hope Havoc drop more solo projects. R I P Prodigy
Havoc has a great ear for music and sound.
The famous havoc hi hats...still one of the dopest! Rip P.
It's crazy seeing this dude with gray specks in his beard looking like an OG when I watched the debut of "Shook Ones" on MTV or whatever and he looked like he was 12 years old.
Havoc n Prodigy TRUE LEGEND.
INFAMOUS 4 LIFE.
"I got the bird's eye view like a bird with swine flu, I'm sick with it no cure for the shit that I do" - killed it
when havoc finds an evil melody , a classic is in the making
legendary no debate
He can do both so well
Havoc 'Got it Twisted' every time
Every source of sound and voices, that's where you can sampling it. Mad props to the legends! #Mobbdeep4life
even he explain stuff it sounded rigid and ready to sample :) big up much love & respect
The Infamous Havoc Holdin it down for his Dunn Prodigy up in heaven, Infamous Mobb Deep 4 Life
#RestHeavenlyProdigy
4:45 where the real shit is
Microphone Fiend yea that was fire lol I'm looking for it now
Havoc is TOO UNDERRATED
Man I got mad love for Havoc. All love. Too underrated. ♥️
Iv been motivated to get my maschine open and flip samples. Thank you havoc. And thank you for the great upload!
underrating on its highest level havoc should do a beat for dmx
damn...havoc should do a purely instrumental album and unleash it on the masses
if your beats never been placed with a major artist you shouldn't be bitching where a major artist / producer get his music he sample from..
My favourite producer of all time! 2nd fav is Dre, 3rd is Preemo, 4th is 9th Wonder, 5th is RZA.
I got outta there. Locationly Speaking 🗣️
MOBB DEEP is forever!. r.i.p P!.
Hollywood Hav. R.i.p Prodigy. You guys made (Perfected) the New York sound hands down
Humming a delivery of the artist you're targeting for really helps out yall shoud remember that technique i been using it since 2014
Havoc is definitely underrated in my opinion. Salute!
Good work havoc!! 👍👍💯💯
memories of the sound the 4 pound make
Havoc🙌you're a legend⭐
True master of his craft. Mobb Deep forever!!
no way that was off the dome 5:50
dope af
havoc still got it
havoc always finds the right atmosphere of terrifing sounds and that's why mobb deep have the best instru in the rap history
i can watch these by havoc all day. inspiring
the boom boom clap is so played I can program it better than any sample
comment to the dude below... sometimes you have to sample off of youtube or a cd..... when you love music it doesn't matter how how you get... its all about how it comes out.... for the love of music......
Awwwwwww!! Both beats, but particularly the second one....damn!
Havoc always gets to the grimey menacing part of any sample. You could feed him some Mary Poppins and he could get you some late night killer on the prowl shit out of it.
kick ass drums! havoc is my fav artist out there
what a legend!
The words Havoc is spitting there is from ''Buck 50's & Bullet Wounds'' x Alchemist
Havoc is dope, so dope, one of the best to do it.
Omg yes he muble raps when making beats I’m on the way to success!
2nd beat sample flames
