The most honest comment ever
Shemar Williams speak for yourself my guy, I work hard lmfao
Shemar Williams speak for yourself
J.A.G Glass haha. Just kidding
Day N Nite is one of the best songs ever made.
No cap it took me almost a decade to find out what song was this
Rich YounginnBDB me too it took me til when I was In 8th grade to know the meaning of this song this song speaks to me
@ZachLavineHive ! not really u heard ksg?
True it's so good
100%
"Then it started playing at half speed and we both looked at eachother this is crazy we gotta find a way to put this into the song"
- When the tempo slows up creates that new new
Verse deeper than I thought
so nobody gunna ask how this man saved a ten year old music file in good quality?
Right!!????
And remember how he made it too
Cds
only producers know that this is actually a hard thing to do
@@stealthyisnthere the song was made ages ago, that's a new MacBook Pro. He prolly just saved the project
Still to this day I love this song
Diffensive don't we all
legendary song
Diffensive e how could you not?
Diffensive e that song is the truth
Diffensive e hell yeah
The “accident” made this song so fire.
I was like 11 years old when Cudi’s album dropped and I heard my older 16 year old sister always listening to this and Pursuit of Happiness. This album came at the start of a new hip hop generation, and for its impact Cudi is a legend.
Sounds like a humble producer
They didn't talk about how he created that sick bassline midway through the song. (in the song, it starts at 1:51) it's one of my absolute favorite parts of it.
I don't have even need to go to the song to know exactly what ur talking about
Yeaaaa
frrrrr was thinking the whole time when he gon tell us what sound that was....
Right. That really helped add even more depth and layers to the rest of the song.
Exactly, that's what I was waiting for!
Kid Cudi’s voice is too good 😫
Diffensive e faxxx
Genius, for your "Deconstructed" series, and on behalf of every Producer, Composer, Beatmaker and Music Writer in the world : Thank You !

One of the most iconic songs of all time.
A KID NAMED CUDI.
and a dot named Da Genius
LeBeautiful no i
Gah damn LeBeautiful
I was ur 200th like btw
It's actually, A Genius Named Dot
day n night and pursuit of happiness were way too ahead of its time tbh
It's crazy that years later, I still get goosebumps when I listen to this track, even when I was in high school back in the day when this came out
SeptAuden damn you old Asf lol I’m pretty sure I was in 5th grade when this came out
Ehhhh, Not that old lol this came out in 2008 and I was a freshmen in high school. Around that time, shit was crazy with music, especially when Kid Cudi came out.
Shit Kidz, I was a fresh grad partying during Senior Week @ Myrtle Beach when this shit dropped. If y'all only knew..
@nycbk23 FACTS!!!
FACTS!
This song hits different when you hear it in a summer night
takes me back to summer 2008
The lonely stoner frees his mind at night. At, At, At, Night.
@@stephenwatchesyoutube omfg summer 2008 was the best 3 months of my life
videos like this keep me alive mannnn
word, I keep coming back to this
Lol alive
Yo fr man!🙂
Best segment ever, this guy and Cudi really did save lives, that whole album is honestly my favorite. It's rare to love every single song on an album but I fell I love with that album
I love how in depth he gets with the story, the sounds, exactly what's being placed where and why. So humble of him.
this song changed the way i hear music
Truest comment bro
I am one of the kids this song helped. It came out when I was 16 which was probably the most important year in my life in terms of making me the man I am today. I was on a bad path and just started smoking weed around the time this came out. One lonely night smoking by myself while listening to this song on repeat, something came to me. It wasn’t a vision but rather that moment people always hope comes for them. The moment their life changed for the better. I ended up getting straight As that year and got into the college I wanted which wouldn’t of happened without that monumental shift in my life. Thank you Cudi and thank you Dot. You two changed my life for the better.
4:35 I felt that when cudi said: uh uh uh uh
Ikr moaned to that sound 😖😫
how does this man remember how he made a beat over 10 years ago. I can't remember making stuff I did 2 months ago
I guess its easier to remember when it blows up that much 😂
Ki - Free Beats because he had it all in front of him...?
you _did_ see him looking at the original audio file, right?
One of the greatest songs of all time 🙏
GroovyBearTV hell yeah
SYKE
GroovyBearTV let's not over exaggerate now lol
terry jones for its impact in hip hop id say yeah
I really don’t understand how people are stanning and knob slobing to cudi and this song.. this has to be one of the most overrated songs ever..
Genius y'all outdid yourselves!
Please try and bring in Bink for "Devil In A New Dress"!!
InstrumentalsBeats holy shit that beat is godly my guy wtf..
Look up Sandurz Beat Breakdown. He did a pretty accurate one for Devil in a New Dress
Wanna see him do the string section mahgod
InstrumentalsBeats Asking for a Deconstructed of that is like asking for Jesus to come back knowing you ain't repented...
my 2nd fav song after reborn
Dot Da Genius looks like the less rich, more stable and approachable 2 Chainz...
I CANT UNSEE IT LMAO
What you mean 2 chainz is unstable
Sort of looks like kahwi ngl
@@noahlortz2054 i thought he looks like trez harrel 😂
@@shlimeonbeats302 yeah he does a little bit🤣
Please do making of Frank Oceans Nights with the beat switch
Sheersh Chaturvedi frrrrr
No way franks gonna agree to do one of these😂
nah that shit trash
Apraustx he didn’t produce it I don’t think
playdoheater1 are you deaf
finally, an actual producer who doesn't say "oh my friend gave me the loop and then i just half timed it through gross beat and added a generic drum pattern"
Ｇ͟IＧ͟NＧ͟Ｇ͟NＧ͟EＧ͟Ｇ͟ Ｇ͟NＧ͟Ｇ͟HＧ͟Ｇ͟NＧ͟IＧ͟NＧ͟E
TRUE
But at the same time this track is almost just as basic. Wouldn't call him an 'actual producer' either as he's just as qualified as the other producers on here with just basic production skills at the time
Of course he's better now, but at the time he was an amateur and you can tell with the simplicity of this beat
And he kinda did half-time part of it through gross beat
Ｇ͟IＧ͟NＧ͟Ｇ͟NＧ͟EＧ͟Ｇ͟ Ｇ͟NＧ͟Ｇ͟HＧ͟Ｇ͟NＧ͟IＧ͟NＧ͟E 😂😂😂😂😂😂 real talk
bruh just because he used pro tools and real synths doesnt mean its better

Didn’t expect to see this on here. 🔥
This song a classic
Please, keep bringing on these producers that actually know what they're doing. I thoroughly enjoyed this.
Imagine going to Abercrombie & Fitch one day and the next day you notice that the dude that checked you out has the biggest rap song out
*Man, the nostalgia made me feel so good!*
LyricalGenes same
*CHILDHOOD SONG*
ayee izak
Yea man I was like 8 when this song dropped
Lmfao wit yo young ass
The Timbs i was 9 when this came out
Jst make me feel even more old lol
This is the best Deconstructed so far. They’re all fire but this was mad overdue. Everybody who loves cudi wanted to see this songs Making Of. WE NEED PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS NEXT. PLEASE. The original one.
I couldn't second that any harder.
Pretty sure pursuit of happiness has a lot of producers
Then Mojo So Dope after
Ask and you shall receive.... its out
JayX NO FUCKIN WAY FOR REAL??
Edit: ITS REALLY OUT
ruclips.net/video/SftSleFVYhE/видео.html
3:50 it was a accident, but one of the best accidents of all time
LITERALLLYYY
Who knew one of my all-time favorite outros ever in a song was by accident 😂
Thats what I was thinking
La la la. Lalala. Kiddddd cudiiiiii
Bruh the best deconstructed episode to date
Damn we blowing up
Dam this could be the best one of this serious so far bruh
Kid Cudi will always be my favorite artist of all time. He saved my life I owe it to him
xGodlyAssassin- what exactly do you mean by he saved your life? A lot of people make it seem like they would be dead if Kid Cudi didn’t make music. Which I really don’t believe
Jatrell Williams stop hating
Jatrell Williams stfu lmao
If y’all actually listened to the music y’all would understand
Yall so fuckin dramatic
This song is 11 years old today. Changed the game
I love how proud he is of this, it really shows you the pride and work that goes into making a banger
This sound fire when's it dropping
Moxas 2008
.....
Irony anyone?
R/woosh
Moxas 2019
This is arguably my favorite song of all time
Agreed
maaan this is sooo dope. Thank y'all. I could die happy if there were more of these breakdowns on Cudi's work. *_Man on the Moon_* sparked an entire new sub-sect of music
This song was way far ahead of its time.
Wow, it's incredible how you can go from not thinking about a certain time period or person from said time in your life an you hear the first few notes of a certain song an it just mentally takes you right back to that time frame.. really had some special moments in my life with this song playing in the background..
Classic. Man on the moon is such a good album
I love to see how they created these big hit songs, started off so simple and end up huge!!! So inspiring
It is SO refreshing to hear someone who knows wtf they are talking about! Someone who actually studied and knows the craft
dreamrealitysyndrome yup!
I agree
Can you name someone that was on here that didn’t know what they were talking about? I find most if not all producers in this series are well studied even if it’d just the basics.
I love how he used half speed in 2008 before Gross Beat existed
I really feel lyrics like once a year. Day n nite, iris, live like you were dying, star shopping, and just a few others. This was my anthem growing up a nerdy stoner.
It’s crazy how you still have the audio file of Day n Night 🔥👌🏻 Sick beat bro 🔥
Cloudy Johnny why wouldn’t he?
well to be fair, Aphex Twin lost a usb stick with several albums worth of work on an airplane, and the Sex Pistols couldn't find their original masters for Guitar Hero 3 and ended up having to re-record the song! These things do happen (:
Nick You awesome aphex twin is cool
Day n nite was ahead of it's time
BTW kid cudi saying 'what' is a great notification ringtone.
Cudi saved my life
Myles Squared same my nigga
same man
May God bless you
Many peoples lives, including mine 🙌🏽
Myles Squared ❤
I was in high school when this came out. Instantly become my favorite song, Cudi then became my favorite artist and still is to this day. 5 years ago when I had my daughter I would sing this to her every night for a couple months when she came home from the hospital. It’s now her favorite song as well. Even have a video of her at 2 years old getting excited when it would come on. Glad that not only does it remind me of helping me out in my loneliest moments in HS to my happiest moments now as a father.
Damn, gave me chills at 2:23.
Changed the game forever. Thanks genius for the upload
THIS WILL ALWAYS BE A HIT 🔥🔥🔥
It's an absolute honor to be able to see this
The fact that he still has the session after all these years goes to show how magical this track is. Salute!
ngl this the best one of these ive seen so far. dot da genius also just seems like he really loves producing
A classic for sure
RickyGoreMusic can't go no where without seeing you lol
DragoFTW ya I watch just about everyone 😂
He looks like If Quavo n 2chainz made kid
I remember the first night I ever smoked weed by myself, I was bumpin this song. My life has never been the same since. Thank you Cudi and Dot!
These throwback ones are awesome. Do Flashing Lights by Kanye or Dont Like by Young Chop
flashing lights please bro
Well they ain’t finna get Kanye on genius verified 😂
Kanye and Mike Dean produced that it ain’t gonna be easy to get either of them on
This song used to be the shit in 2009. I miss those days.
More Cudi production breakdowns!!!
DaseDesigns The Prayer and Heart of a Lion need to be broken down both by the producers and Kid Cudi. Both the meaning behind the lyrics (by Cudi, obviously) and the beat production
This vid makes me so happy. Behind the scenes of history.

This might be the best episode yet such an iconic song from a timeless artist
3:57 holyyy fuckkk this was a mistake !??? This is a such mesmerizing part of the song
This is hella late but im not upset. Deconstructed the best series on YT.
This deserved a grammy
Dope producer. A real one for a change. Actually played all the melodies by himself, respect.
it always amazes me when these huge songs are so simple. so crazy!!
actually this one imo isnt that simple. you have to feel those melodies to make them and boy im sure im makin songs and its hard af to create that harmony you imagine in your mind. Bring it upon is the hardest thing ever.
@@norbertboros2908 it isss
simple tools but piecing that together into a complete song like this is far from simple
Daaaamn I listened to that song yesterday after a few years and now you upload this Video craaazyy

Tbt 2008 when this song came out and I used to blast it in my 2000 Civic. Those were the days.
this song is 16 years old today and i'll love it forever
Wow this really hit home. This track and these artists are essentially the reason why I got into music production myself. Ultimate goal is to be able to produce with one of them.
Been a long time coming still my ringtone from the start Cudi has got me through some real hard times! Thank you Cudi and thank you genius!
Day n night is hands down my favorite song of all time ☀️🌚
yes, a dope producer talking about a dope artist and song, bless u
Simplicity is the key as always! Thanks Genius for this new episode!! ☀️🌴
Man on the Moon is still one of my favorite album
As a person who likes all types of music, this song is definitely one of my favorites and I think one of the greatest songs ever. I’ve listened to this song before when I was younger and liked the sound but I listened to it again when I was older in high school while high because I wanted to hear that hook again but I also listened to the lyrics this time and it made me feel a way I’ve never felt before. I connected to the song a lot more than I ever thought I did because I finally understood the lyrics and everything cudi talks about just hit the spot. As I’m high just falling in love with this song even more I start to hear the way the sounds in the song change and how they bring you into a different world almost and that is what made this song one of my favorites ever.
Cudi for sure helping the people with KSG. I can't explain what that song did for me at exactly the time I needed it.
Genius won't be able to top this one
The kicks are ingrained into my mind. Just so precise and perfect. This production is a classic. CLASSIC
6:10 is the truth im 20 now so when i was really young when this song was out and just listening to it now reminds me of when me and my brother shared a room and i miss those days being young living life and making memories with my brother. to this day i say kid cudi but especially day n nite really did save me in a way. makes me appreciate everything
He made one of the most beautiful beat of the century
The end bit with the half speed is crazy
