We need some more old school in the mix Genius. Not only are we getting a break down we getting some historical context as well.
Faxxx I never even knew the lox was on it
agreed!
czcams.com/video/iF0KjW9a1Ts/video.html you'll be on this channel for hrs trust me
half of this new shit has no deep meaning anyway
@@JonLondon210 you wrong for this. Good looks though!
R.I.P to DMX..all dogs🐶 go to heaven
"Where my Dogs At"? S.I.P. ~DMX The Great
"If the drums aint tight the beat aint right"......HAVOC
Facts 🙏 blessings
The most simple breakdown to a legendary song.
DMX will always be a legend 👊
LegitMusic always 🤙🏿🤙🏿🤙🏿
May he rest in peace
"Niggas Done Started Something" is my, favorite joint off this album! Mase was, in rare form!
That x verse was nuts
Yeah that mase verse was vicious, him X and the Lox was a perfect blend
its dark and hell is hot is brilliant
I like how it's so easy for him to recreate this beat like he just made it yesterday.
I hope there are more Boom-Bap/Old School type beats that will be in deconstruction
Bru Th3r this ain't boombap tho
Sebi Old School I guess?
yeah xD
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
hes talking bout the era
Lox leaving Bad Boy going to Ruff Ryders was the best decision they could’ve done. That partnership with Lox and X was like Snoop when he went to No Limit. It just worked brilliantly
Flame Beats oh don’t get me wrong Lox on Bad Boy was bangin’ too. The whole album Money, Power, & Respect is a classic and was done while on Bad Boy
Flame Beats I fuck wit you for this comment. 🔥
Haus of Thug Life they were always Ruff Ryder's
Mr Wonderful actually they were signed to Bad Boy before going to Ruff Ryders
They was always w Ruff Ryders even when they was w Bad Boy. But Dee & Y was the Lox management at the time. So when they were trying to get off Bad Boy, Ruff Ryder’s was securing their deal w Jimmy Iovine & Interscope in 1998-99 they wanted to add the Lox to their label. So Jimmy Iovine helped get them off Bad Boy so it could happen. It worked out the end cuz the lox became more successful eventually getting all their publishing back from Puff down the road & the business relationship that Jimmy Iovine has w Puff grew from there along w Iovine’s relationship w Double R. Bc nobody can say anything bad about Jimmy bc when his artists needed him he took care of them
Get at me dog is a straight classic. Still playing it hard in 2019 like it came out yesterday as if it's 1997. Real music is timeless!
It was definitely a big hit in its day. But, this is just testament to Erick Sermon’s (E-Double/the Green eyed bandit/MC Grand Royal) genius on the beats. E-Double is one of the most underrated producers. He is on par with Dre, Premier, Timbaland, and Pete Rock! He is cut from that cloth.
So true. I wish him and Eric sermons name ould be recognized the same as Dre, pharell and the others.
Ahh the timing. This gets recommended to me right after he passes. Rest In Peace DMX
Damn... This recommentadion just hit different now.. rest in peace X
RIP King. This song gets me so amped. Who needs coffee when you can listen to this in the morning.
RIP DMX we will always remember you
Music lives forever and so does your memory in our hearts
E.P.M.D used the same sample 10 years prior on "Get The Bozack."
Exactly, the same breaks and everything. I guarantee that the freestyle was just rapping over that instrumental.
@@svh01 yeah this guy has some self-importance trip going on. old heads knew X bodied it but we knew it was EPMD track he was spitting on.
@@cameron_fairchild Exactly, to quote Chuck D, "Stole a beat, Paid ZERO"
@@svh01 Hey man, he flipped it in a different way, built it up a bit. I'm sure the man knows who originally took it, that's Deaf Jam, c'mon now.. And there was a group from Canada that flipped it around that same time as well, anyone know what I'm talking about? I forgot the group's name.
@@sgtcreasegrease Naw bruh, he slowed it down a little and DMX ripped it but that's about it. LOVE the track, but for him to act he constructed without a mention of EPMD feels a little shady.
I knew this beat was simple af but it made it legendary.
GTG Beats this beat is simple now but at that time, it was hard to make
GQDADON1000 back then it was more difficult cause he was probably looping through the MPC. Now that loop, I can do that in 3-5 Minutes Tops in FL Studio. Technology made it more simple to create music.
He actually used this same beat for 3 songs. X get at me dog, Mase will they die for u, beans and jay z raw and uncut
Very simple
Why is there no mention of EPMD using it before he did, "Get the Bozack"?
Yo...I am 50...This is my golden era. These people were/are geniuses! Long live these greats!!!!!!!!
EPMD sampled the original song too in 89 on Get the bozack. Damn near the same beat.
Tell em fam he just re used the beat
yes this is true!!!
I'm like we just gonna fail to mention that beat too lol
@@adrianbatey3357 THANK YOU!!! DJ Clue and Duro did the same thing with the song “Ryde or Die”. That was just EPMD “Headbanger”.
It is the same beat.
No mention of EPMD tho?? Come on yo. They looped it the same way back in 1989. Epmd - Get the Bozark.
Yall complain about how "easy" or "simple" trap beats are made but this was a very simple breakdown, I dont understand what the complexity of a beat has to do with you enjoying the song
Nowhere on this video does Dame mention "Get The Bozack" tho...smh
RIP DMX man this was the first place I came to when I heard the news 🙏
Dope interview!
Did he really not big-up EPMD for using their beat?????
First thing I thought of. His version just a touched up version
🔥🔥🔥. need genius to link up with timbaland and deconstruct missy elliot - sock it to me.
D'Artizt please
WORD
He needs to deconstruct anything, I need to see that
D'Artizt or *Lick Shots* or *At it again*
Yes lawd
Today is the 23 year anniversary of Its Dark and Hell is Hot. R.I.P DMX!🙏🏾💔 we love you❤️
I need more classic beat breakdowns like this, the stories surrounding them are so interesting and dope
friendly reminder that DMX performed in front of about a million people in Russia
Amangiechsin no shit lol
Dmx performed at woodstock infront of 2000+
He looks just like Inspectah Deck in the thumbnail.
Thought it was Bobby Shmurda
Haha bout to start calling that lol
Dame Grease Legendary... I Recorded and mixed this song the same night. You didnt tell them that he recorded 3 different verses for each verse. That's 9 verses in all. All in one take. With the famous adlibs growls and barks... classic. You bought the gritty back to nyc... peace Bro. D'Anthony Johnson Recording and Mix Engineer. Get At Me Dog...
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do more Deconstructing Vids on these 90s Producer Greats 😊😊😊✌💯
That kick and snare though
Already used sonny
R.I.P. DMX
That album is timeless this just popped up in my feed and i was just thinking about get at me dog yesterday lol.. Crazy.. But this is the X i miss this was when he was at his best the essence was real
Abelton live is an incredible DAW for chopping beats 🎧
I swear you’ll get lost for days with the ideas 💡 this program will have you coming up with
Better give EPMD props!
I'm laughing at him doing the beat for "Get at me Dawg" like EPMD didn't give him the blueprint with "Get the Bozack"!
😂😂😂😂
Yeah it's funny to talk about everything but the song they took to make this one. Gotta show EPMD some respect.
Glad I ain’t the only one thinking this. No mention at all.
DMX's version is better anyways
@@no1u521 Get the bo the bo the bo bozack.
Yeah yeah. Everything was stolen from Eric sermon version 🤣🤣. He did nothing new. Even the repeats. Damn.
I miss my dog DMX. He is and still a real dog. ✌️
Do Hail Mary or I get around by tupac
lord louie The guy who produced 'hail mary' died man.
allroundlad You sure? I saw an interview 3 years back on the guy who produced it talking about the studio session of hail mary with pac...unless he died recently...?
Oh that's weird I looked it up and i'm wrong but I distinctly remember seeing on wikipedia a producer who had been jailed and had committed suicide by jumping off a balcony in jail. I was sure it was the producer of 'Hail Mary' but I guess not. Now I want to know who the actual producer i'm thinking about it.
Nevermind it was 'Johhny J Jackson' who produced for Tupac and committed suicide by jumping from a higher tier level in prison after being sentenced to 3 years for DUI.
fuck tupac!
RIP a historic rapper
One of my all-time favorite songs. I could be in the worse mood and this always hypes me up!
Make what you were just dancing to. Dropped a jewel right there
Genius, thank you!
*The Making of Hail Mary - Tupac ! we need this.*
Lucas Miotto and ride on our enemies.
FUCK TUPAC!
Sam Rodgers are u nuts?
EvaFrass@me..y pree u luv Pac nuts
Long Live DMX!
EPMD get the bozack unfinished business album.1989. Surprised that wasn’t mentioned. Get the bozack is a classic. When I hear get at me dog the thing I said was “thats get the bozack”
Well this was awesome to get the breakdown on
One of THEE hardest beats in hip hop history.
Why is dude acting like he was the first to do the track when EPMD DID IT FIRST with “Get the Boozak”!?!?!?!
This is really just Dame and X's version of EPMD's-Get The Bozack
RIP DMX, such a shame, the guy had so much talent!
Great to see how my all time favorite song ever was created
RIP DMX
2 Pac - Hail Mary Deconstruction
Rest up DMX 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Need more of these old school beats ASAP!
Great vid
HERE FOR THIS.
Mase also used this sample on Will The Die 4 U
So many jewels dropped in this 5 mins. I always felt like the hip hop tracks back in the day were a little off time. Now I know.
this song reminds me of the days i used to play gta liberty city stories...
This is PURE GOLD!!!!
Ain't seen virtual DJ for a long time.. sweet memores
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 dope sample EPMD did it first though with “Get the Bozak “
...and again on "For My People"
R.I.P. legend D.M.X
he was a legend. r.i.p DMX
Yo I love this beat its so greedy
All time
MIND BLOWING.
this beat was used in a couple other hit songs at the time too. Mase had one, and these Canadian all-stars (Kardi, Rascals, Checkmate, etc) had a big hit from this beat in Canada
Was really hoping to see a breakdown on the SP or MPC. Great story behind it all though. Respect!
yooooo this enlightening he flow with the times and re made it in front of us
KEEP....THEM...COMING..GENIUS!!!!
R.I.P DMX 🕊
LOVEING THE OG’S
