@@ockbah wow dude, thanks for sharing that! watched it all. Very cool. There is definitely tons of skill and dedication in that. The main skill being the mixing and arranging of the instrumentation.. which a musician/band also does ON TOP of learning the actual skill required to play the instrument they play. At which point one could argue "yeah but J was only one person" which is a fair counterargument but then I invite you to check out Tame Impala, who writes, plays, arranges, records, and mixes every single piece of music and rhythm on his record himself.
This was definitely Jay-Z's song to the streets this was his dedication to any Hood all over the globe how can someone thumb this down TF this is a classic right here
Jay been dedicating entire albums to the hoods and even after death he’ll never receive the true respect and recognition he fully deserves because now everybody from the hood. Too many frauds have been allowed into the game.
My First Worship and Sex Mother Monica ("The First Night," "Angel of Mine," and MANY other classics) made this instrumental beat "Dead Presidents." She made it for ME, her son and only child EVER, Jah Jesus Christ Snoop Doggy Dogg. She made it in '94. I was supposed to Rap on it and it was supposed to be released on my '94 Snoop Doggy Dogg album "Murder Was The Case," but Jay-Z stole this beat from us and Rapped on it and released it as a Jay-Z song in '95 on his '95 album "Reasonable Doubt." My name is Nishith Vijay and my First Worship and Sex Mother Monica's name is Ritu Vijay.
All the people from this era that didn’t make it, passed away, locked up. This beat amplifies their hopes and dreams and the pursuit of the wanted, what they wanted to achieve the most. ✌🏽

Yes I do bruh I was playing Roblox one day heard this beat in rap battles and started crying because I felt old because I was young when I heard this song I was like 7 now I’m 15
JRLM Nothing happened. It's all in your perception of the passing of time. You're not focused on every second/minute/hour/day/week/month/year of your life, so it seems as if this moved faster, especially when you're reminiscing about something that took place decades ago.
This beat makes me think of driving down I-10 at 7:13 AM in November, still cold in the car cuz the engine hasn't quite warmed up yet, wondering what the hell was I thinking picking up that extra shift.
There’s just something about the early era of Rocafella music that is so damn inspirational and motivational… the definition of talent mixed with hunger.
I wish there were more type of music like this 😩 nowadays people listen to trap music and claim that it's hip hop but nah that ain't real hip hop.. this type IS along with big l, tupac, biggie, busta rhymes, method man, nas, and so on, you know?

So many MEMORIES run thru my mind rollin down Pacific Coast Highway......OCEAN VIEWS!! DAMN ,...I LOVE MY MOM.....!! MY SIS MY NEPHEW ;) ...ALL MY TRUE FRIENDS ..some passed on few still HERE!!
Focusing my mind on Dead Presidents, While every other rappers live life irrelevant, There cranium be corrupted; be filled with dents, Living my life lavish - all derived from a pen. Thinking about random ideas and I hesitate; To drop a niggas life and watch his body elevate, Inspired by legends with this pathway to emulate, A new breed of rap - Watch me begin and to create, Introduce a new vision and I hope I'm not too late, With these hoes I like to conversate but, will never take, The love-life which always ends with divorce as fate. My mind be filled with thoughts with this stressful mental state, Decrypting words of wisdom I constantly translate, Dome coated with the roughness; I'm talking about sand papes. Illustrate blurry imagery as I eventually portray, Homeless individuals strolling through these switchblades. So?
they used to tell me all time i was tha chosen kind aint no happy sad and rappin yea thats often times outside looking in and grinning look again and see tha awful times flow was awesome hectic no one heard it kept the shit inside
Been through alot, now my time is ticking Lost all i got, even my mom is missing Remniscing over the top, tryin stop this vision No one to listen and now dont even got a pot to piss in I was top condition never worried bout opposition Used to glisten till you left this earth But for what its worth i was here n now it fucking hurts I dont know whats worse, Using these words , my voice will never be heard, Its absurd , sleepin on the curb ,is this the life i deserve I dont even know , My paths through sleet n snow U watched me eat n grow So now i guess i gotta leave n go Peace yo....
I'm out for sentences to represent me, writing my pedigree/ This pen and my thoughts are legendary, think ahead of me/ If ever comes a greater, I'll be rapping when I'm seventy/ No cemetery coffin for this God body, heavenly/ Evidence of my eminent elements, stealing eloquence/ Embezzling this vessel, the seventh wonder of hell and since/ These presidents don't represent me, they're in the recipe/ That's cooking in my soul til they're setting it free/
That sample is crazy, the piano goes so hard. Everyone says illmatic is the greatest hip hop album but Reasonable Doubt will smoke Illmatic song for song.

I'm unique I'm Different , I had a vision of me sitting at the top and i am living , a life with a gift that's god given , Bless me father for i am Sinning , Rip Apart beats like a hunter who is skining , I Traveled so far Because I am Driven , Mind like the tires that are spinning , My Shits so nasty i got you cringing , Your Raps Are nothing compared to the Hell that I'm bringing , Float like a butterfly Like a bee how I'm stinging , You should just take up singing , Cole Tenerelli with Punch Lines I'm swinging , Take out the whole crew that you are bringing , Like a super hero my Spidey Sence Is Tingling , 16 years old Yet i am Shining and twinkling , This is where im going to end it hope you like it...
I wanna say, first of all, to those that say they've heard em all, Something new, come to you, like a messiah that's unbeknownst to you Spit through the wire for those whose flow's desired set fire to the world where souls are sold to the richest buyer I'll take you higher like I'm a flyer, you're Icharus I'm Daedalus your tragic downfall we all conspired, if I'm a liar so be it, the events that transpired no longer have meaning, I guess I'm no longer forward leaning
i just dont understand how a rapper can lose so much skill. every line in this song is fucking insane, In both versions, its probably one of the greatest hip hop songs of all time. I feel bad for Jay Z i dont think he realizes how much skill he lost in the art of rap
damn this beat tickles my throat. you get transported to an unknown place, where everything is black and white, it's after rain. early in the morning, not many people outside. couple of dudes on the block, leaning against the wall, smoking. you haven't slept all night because you've been working on something and you're satisfied with what you have done in life. you walk to the store to pick up a bottle of beer and you're gonna go home, let the cool beer run through your throat and fall asleep. then you'll wake in the afternoon and get back to work. and repeat. ps: sounds so much like something j dilla would've produced.
These kids today who only listen to Travis Scott, Lil Uzi Vert, Kodak Black and all the other mumble rappers of this day in age will never know or fully understand how lit Hip Hop was back in the 90's and 2000's for our generation. This what your listening to will never grow old.
creating hip hop beats is a underrated art
you mean taking someone's music and placing it over someone's drums?

Shall remain anonymous, caught up in the finest shit
Live out my dreams until my heart give out
Involved with cream, you know exactly what this shit's about
Fuck y'all mean? Handling since a teen, I dish out
Like the point guard off your favorite team, without doubt
My life ain't rosy but I roll with it
My mind was fine 'til the dough hit it and told me that the Mo' did it
And now it's kosher, shit is so Hasidic
I blow a digit on a diamond in a minute but no bitches
Watch how I'm walking cause even the thoroughest niggas be narc'in
Tryin' to strike a bargain hoping that they might get pardoned
Shit I'm involved with got me pins and needles
And my cerebral breeds the wickedest evil thoughts that this sport'll feed you
Peep facts, in the game so deep fiends could catch ya
Freeze off my knee cap, can y'all believe that?
Got the city drinking Cristals, re-up the fee
Rappers going broke, tryin' to keep up with me
My rise to riches surprised the bitches: think harder
You know this nigga, Jay-Z, Shawn Carter
G.S. the fuck up, dress the fuck up
Watch me shine like a Breitling, begets the fuck up

You in the streets, nigga, make your moves, get your mail
Niggas'll coast in the SL but can't post bail
Niggas'll roast a L but scared to throw your toast, well
I'm here to tell niggas it ain't all swell
There's heaven, and then there's hell niggas
One day you're cruising in your 7, next day you're sweating, forgetting your lies
Alibis ain't matching up, bullshit catching up
Hit with the RICO, they repo your vehicle
Everything was all good just a week ago
'Bout to start bitching ain't you? Ready to start snitching ain't you?
I'll forgive your weak ass; hustling just ain't you
Aside from the fast cars, honeys that shake they ass at bars
You know you wouldn't be involved
With the underworld dealers, carriers of mac-millers
East Coast bodiers, West Coast cap-peelers
Little monkey niggas turn gorillas
Stopped at the station, filled up on octane
And now they not sane and not playing, that goes without saying
Slingin' day in and day out, 'til money play in, then they play you out

Lonnie Liston Smith is a genius, if u know u know
Jack Lowden garden of peace
This beat feels like I'm underwater.
Top 5 best instrumental of all time ❤
So many MEMORIES run thru my mind rollin down Pacific Coast Highway......OCEAN VIEWS!! DAMN ,...I LOVE MY MOM.....!! MY SIS MY NEPHEW ;) ...ALL MY TRUE FRIENDS ..some passed on few still HERE!!
Focusing my mind on Dead Presidents,
While every other rappers live life irrelevant,
There cranium be corrupted; be filled with dents,
Living my life lavish - all derived from a pen.
Thinking about random ideas and I hesitate;
To drop a niggas life and watch his body elevate,
Inspired by legends with this pathway to emulate,
A new breed of rap - Watch me begin and to create,
Introduce a new vision and I hope I'm not too late,
With these hoes I like to conversate but, will never take,
The love-life which always ends with divorce as fate.
My mind be filled with thoughts with this stressful mental state,
Decrypting words of wisdom I constantly translate,
Dome coated with the roughness; I'm talking about sand papes.
Illustrate blurry imagery as I eventually portray,
Homeless individuals strolling through these switchblades.
So?
dope
Yo this shit go son this shit fire son
+Wake Up Mr. West Classic
really fucking dope
Dope
I guess us old folks say this was when Jay was Z and not Mr. Beyonce.
he's never been Mr.Beyonce. If anything she became Mrs.Carter. Hov always been Hov bruh
+marvin5078 real

Whack
@@deckaextendo let me see you do better!
We don't just shine, We illuminate the whole show !!!
this is one of the best beats ever made :D hands down
Been through alot, now my time is ticking
Lost all i got, even my mom is missing
Remniscing over the top, tryin stop this vision
No one to listen and now dont even got a pot to piss in
I was top condition never worried bout opposition
Used to glisten till you left this earth
But for what its worth i was here n now it fucking hurts
I dont know whats worse,
Using these words , my voice will never be heard,
Its absurd , sleepin on the curb ,is this the life i deserve
I dont even know ,
My paths through sleet n snow
U watched me eat n grow
So now i guess i gotta leave n go
Peace yo....
Stfu
@@DanielMartinez-xz8nj 🥴
Still the greatest beat ever in my opinion
LONNIE LISTON SMITH - GARDEN OF PEACE. THAT'S THE SAMPLE. NOW GO TO THAT.
Haha we basically just passed the anniversary of the release of this beat a few days ago, this beat is like a childhood friend that you miss.
IMMA STEAL ALL YOUR RHYMES!!!!! (EVIL LAUGH)
love this.
Dani Zareen dis shit classic
te amo
The best beat of all time!! Who agrees??
Yes sir!You should listen to Give up the goods by Mobb Deep. One of the dopest beats.
I'm out for sentences to represent me, writing my pedigree/
This pen and my thoughts are legendary, think ahead of me/
If ever comes a greater, I'll be rapping when I'm seventy/
No cemetery coffin for this God body, heavenly/
Evidence of my eminent elements, stealing eloquence/
Embezzling this vessel, the seventh wonder of hell and since/
These presidents don't represent me, they're in the recipe/
That's cooking in my soul til they're setting it free/
yo i see the bars, good shit
that evidence bar was the coldest
Damn 5 years on I hope your still writing cos these are some sick bars no cap
this is fucking garbage
I hope u still writing thats hard
That sample is crazy, the piano goes so hard. Everyone says illmatic is the greatest hip hop album but Reasonable Doubt will smoke Illmatic song for song.
Amante Apasionado no no no buddy Reasonable Doubt was great but Illmatic changed hip hop like Jordan did basketball man!🔥‼️
"You made it a hot line, I made it a hot song (Woo!)"
Yeaaaa Ski-Beatz
Imagine if Kendrick flowed on this 🔥
Man this will be Kendrick song now if he did
idk. i feel like the beat is too oldschool for kendrick
"You made it a hot line, I made it a hot song" - Jay-Z
😒
True
"Brace yourself for the main event
Y'all impatiently waiting
It's like an AIDS test, what's the results?
Not positive, who's the best? Pac, Nas and Big
Ain't no best, East, West, North, South, flossed out, greedy
I embrace y'all with napalm
Blows up, no guts, left chest, face gone
How could Nas be garbage?
Semi-autos at your cartilage
Burner at the side of your dome, come outta my throne
I got this, locked since '9-1
I am the truest, name a rapper that I ain't influenced
Gave y'all chapters but now I keep my eyes on the Judas
With Hawaiin Sophie fame, kept my name in his music
Check it
I've been fucked over, left for dead, dissed and forgotten
Luck ran out, they hoped that I'd be gone, stiff and rotten
Y'all just piss on me, shit on me, spit on my grave (uh)
Talk about me, laugh behind my back but in my face
Y'all some "well wishers, " friendly acting, envy hiding snakes
With your hands out for my money, man, how much can I take?
When these streets keep calling, heard it when I was sleep
That this Gay-Z and Cockafella Records wanted beef
Started cocking up my weapon, slowly loading up this ammo
To explode it on a camel, and his soldiers, I can handle
This for dolo and it's manuscript, just sound stupid
When KRS already made an album called Blueprint
First, Biggie's ya man, then you got the nerve to say that you better than Big
Dick sucking lips, whyn't you let the late, great veteran live
Y'all niggas deal with emotions like bitches
What's sad is I love you 'cause you're my brother
You traded your soul for riches
My child, I've watched you grow up to be famous
And now I smile like a proud dad, watching his only son that made it
You seem to be only concerned with dissing women
Were you abused as a child, scared to smile, they called you ugly?
Well life is hard, hug me, don't reject me
Or make records to disrespect me, blatant or indirectly
In '88 you was getting chased through your building
Calling my crib and I ain't even give you my numbers
All I did was gave you a style for you to run with
Smiling in my face, glad to break bread with the god
Wearing Jaz chains, no tecs, no cash, no cars
No jail bars Jigga, no pies, no case
Just Hawaiian shirts, hanging with little Chase
You a fan, a phony, a fake, a pussy, a Stan
I still whip your ass, you thirty-six in a karate class
You Tae-bo hoe, trying to work it out, you tryna' get brolic?
Ask me if I'm trying to kick knowledge
Nah, I'm trying to kick the shit you need to learn though
That ether, that shit that make your soul burn slow
Is he Dame Diddy, Dame Daddy or Dame Dummy?
Oh, I get it, you Biggie and he's Puffy
Rockafeller died of AIDS, that was the end of his chapter
And that's the guy y'all chose to name your company after?
Put it together, I rock hoes, y'all rock fellas
And now y'all try to take my spot, fellas?
Philly's hot rock fellas, put you in a dry spot, fellas
In a pine box with nine shots from my glock, fellas
Foxy got you hot 'cause you kept your face in her puss
What you think, you getting girls now 'cause of your looks?
Ne-gro please
You no mustache having, with whiskers like a rat
Compared to Beans you wack
And your man stabbed Un and made you take the blame
You ass, went from Jaz to hanging with Caine, to Herb, to Big
And, Eminem murdered you on your own shit
You a dick-riding fagot, you love the attention
Queens niggas run you niggas, ask Russell Simmons
Ha, R-O-C get gunned up and clapped quick
J.J. Evans get gunned up and clapped quick
Your whole damn record label gunned up and clapped quick
Shaun Carter to Jay-Z, damn you on Jaz dick
So little shorty's getting gunned up and clapped quick
How much of Biggie's rhymes is goin' come out your fat lips?
Wanted to be on every last one of my classics
You pop shit, apologize, nigga, just ask Kiss" - Nas
^ 13 year old abused girl
Anonymous 14567 jay z was full of himself Nas is and always be better nuff said
Im half Rican and im half Dominican dropping hot bars " you are a dead president inside your car" when I spit now you wanna call me spic" cause mi estilo is sick" pero vengo duro" para el futuro "seguro como yo ninguno" uno soy no soy dos caras como algunos".....representing me word NY is the house old school still..
Bruh this beat literally hurt my soul 😢 T I M E
One of the greatest hip hop beats of all time.
I'm unique I'm Different , I had a vision of me sitting at the top and i am living , a life with a gift that's god given , Bless me father for i am Sinning , Rip Apart beats like a hunter who is skining , I Traveled so far Because I am Driven , Mind like the tires that are spinning , My Shits so nasty i got you cringing , Your Raps Are nothing compared to the Hell that I'm bringing , Float like a butterfly Like a bee how I'm stinging , You should just take up singing , Cole Tenerelli with Punch Lines I'm swinging , Take out the whole crew that you are bringing , Like a super hero my Spidey Sence Is Tingling , 16 years old Yet i am Shining and twinkling , This is where im going to end it hope you like it...
“I want money like Cosby. Who wouldn’t? It’s this kinda talk that makes me think ya probably ain’t got no puddin’”
Pure cheeks.
Trust me it's still beatin in tha 2019.....
The Best.
Done.
Shout out to the legendary ski beatz
I wanna say, first of all, to those that say they've heard em all,
Something new, come to you, like a messiah that's unbeknownst to you
Spit through the wire for those whose flow's desired set fire to the world where souls are sold to the richest buyer
I'll take you higher like I'm a flyer, you're Icharus I'm Daedalus your tragic downfall we all conspired, if I'm a liar so be it, the events that transpired no longer have meaning, I guess I'm no longer forward leaning
daaamn
Holy shit
if STEEZ was on this beat....
TJ Phillips no cap 🧢, rip steez tho
Ooooff Steelo would murder any beat foshooo! He’s the king, that died a young prophet that connects with god and no body knowss
Rise in Power Steelooo
This beat is like walking through Brooklyn in the dead of winter
Somewhere in 96 I miss this era and I was born in the 2000s 🥺🥺
damian lillard!
Needs to stick to ballin. Blazers aren't doin as good as they should. Quit rapping and go practice on the court
new philmz this aged poorly
Braden Pittman not really mans hasn't proved himself to be an MVP candidate yet lol, something we all expect from him
Nas alone does equal greatness.
NAS SUCKS. He got punked by PAC lol!
+Daniel Pena Nas and Pac were cool, and never really had Beef.
+Osama Al-Kayyali Pac was the greatest. Nas cant spit bro. let it be known.
***** They never really had beef. They squashed it like a week before Pac got shot.
+John Doe cause pac punked hos dumbasss. set that dumb lil niggga straight. Just like he did with mobb deeep.
NAS
Niceness. Keeilaspbaebass
Riding and actually Killin this beat must make U a master for real
Ski, one of the most underrated producers of all time. Dude was a beast way ahead of his time. Rocablock
Time to steal some raps
i just dont understand how a rapper can lose so much skill. every line in this song is fucking insane, In both versions, its probably one of the greatest hip hop songs of all time. I feel bad for Jay Z i dont think he realizes how much skill he lost in the art of rap
I agree 100%. This is top 5 of all time. Amazingly sampled and the lyrics hit hard with every single bar.
wataloopus 444 was dope tho
beat kinda similar to j dilla life instrumental
True
real talk same kinda mystical vibe
he probably sampled from j dilla
Fool!
J Dilla aint the best
Then who is to you?
damn this beat tickles my throat. you get transported to an unknown place, where everything is black and white, it's after rain. early in the morning, not many people outside. couple of dudes on the block, leaning against the wall, smoking. you haven't slept all night because you've been working on something and you're satisfied with what you have done in life. you walk to the store to pick up a bottle of beer and you're gonna go home, let the cool beer run through your throat and fall asleep. then you'll wake in the afternoon and get back to work. and repeat.
ps: sounds so much like something j dilla would've produced.
chatTil english them wack ass bars
These kids today who only listen to Travis Scott, Lil Uzi Vert, Kodak Black and all the other mumble rappers of this day in age will never know or fully understand how lit Hip Hop was back in the 90's and 2000's for our generation. This what your listening to will never grow old.
