Hov on the that new shit, niggas like how come? Niggas want my old shit, buy my old album Niggas stuck on stupid, I gotta keep it moving Niggas make the same shit, me I make the blueprint. the history repeats itself.
Clams Casino is severely underrated imo. His sound has that outer space washed out reverb sound which was kind of like the precursor to those slowed+reverb mixes we have today and he was doing that in the 2010s.
DJ Screw and his chopped & screwed style were responsible for influencing slowed & reverb stuff. Clams definitely was one of the pillars of cloud rap movement in 2010s though.
Wouldn't have stopped Spaceghost from going 110% loko and beefing with the rest of Earth's lifeforms, but yeah it would have been sick to have more of them collaborating
@@AlbertoBalsalmethat the whole issue on god. This song alone shows how knowledgeable sgp was with flippin beats into something else. Idk who got into his ear about what eva started the bs or he’s just weird, but that’s some lame ass shit
@@le4chehenry324Ik ppl love Viper but I can't get into it. Plus he's not really that big, even compared to Purrp. SGP def started something in the underground.
This is an amazing break down right here shows you that being different makes you stand out in a good way you don't always need 808s and trap hats in your beats step outside the box and you can stand out more
this album and clams casino production in general was a gamechanger. not just in hip hop but in the wider electronic music sphere as well. I remember going to an electronic show in san francisco in 2012 and like 1/4 of the tracks dropped that night by several different djs were heavily indebted to clams. I highly encourage everyone to check out his instrumental mixtapes and the EP he released on triangle. one of my fav producers of all time.
absolutely. I heard "Bass" the day it hit the internet and I listened to it obsessively for like two years straight every day. And I'm an 'oldhead' I guess. I'm not impressed by typical average shit.
Only thing I dislike about clams I remember a statement along the lines of I don’t like rappers using my beats I don’t need them to use my beats Yea of course you don’t but the only reason I heard of clams was probably lil b Im god. So it is what it is you can’t choose what makes you big it just happens
If you take lil b as an example, i completely agree with clams casino and can see where he is coming from. That boy ruined the beat , and not in the good way@@SEECH7cornishgrimemovement
it's funny you used frou frou for a sample at the end because rocky also sampled her song on long live asap "ghetto symphony" and frou frou is actually a duo which features imogen heap as the main singer, and imogen heap is well known for being sampled on clams casino's most famous song "i'm god" 😆
honestly purp was the perfect producer for rocky to maintain an experimental sound w mainstream appeal without trying to be underground or trying to hard to sound different. purrp was in that pocket frfr. his sound w him would've easily lasted into the 2020's and who knows what that would've evolved into along the way. a lot of bangers for sure
@@dafinkarnik it’s sad but hard to feel bad for him at the same time. But I feel like the alternate timeline where rocky n sgp would’ve stayed locked in would’ve had a huge impact on Rocky’s career musically. When the SoundCloud wave took off you can tell it was difficult for rocky to pivot to a consistent sound that worked. Sgp would’ve been perfect since a lot of the vibes that came out of it were directly influenced by him.
Really loving those takes on alternate "what if-" versions in different genres, fantastic approach to really drive the specific nuances and "oddities" of what makes certain beats unique home
spaceghostpurrp made rocky. he stole his sound and swag and blackballed purrp. make a video on sgp. the early space albums to the production on the layer more experimental lo fi work
Hey man, thanks for the videos, I’ve improved a lot from your tutorials in a few weeks & noticed your video quality improved a lot too, compared to earlier ones! keep it up!!
It's also worth noting that A$AP MOB, while their primary sound is Cloud Rap/Trap, they never shyed away from Boom Bap and they still pay homage to old school East coast rappers.
so happy to know your take on Cloud Rap, especially on the A$AP Mob, SpaceGhostPurrp and Clams Casino. i would love to see a overexplained/every producer can learn/secrets of spaceghostpurrp, i personally think he's the most slept on producer of our generation. i made a clams casino x A$AP rocky type beat, not spamming, i'd just love to hear your opinion on it, you're one of my main inspirations. stay true to the game
I'm glad Rocky went against the critiques. Him, Clams Casino, Spaceghostpurpp etc... inspired a lot of soundcloud phonk wave i love today: yung vamp, soudiere etc...
i distinctly remember how hated on ASAP Mob as a whole were when they first came out, because they were being garnered as "not staying true to their roots". he was borrowing from Memphis throwers and Indiana choppers, while still managing to keep his NYC identity. i found it incredibly fresh sounding while still keeping me engaged as a listener because it was familiar. that's the only way i can describe it. Clams Casino and ASAP Ty had a very distinct sound
"Peso" was genius... I'm 46 yrs old now which makes me an '80's kid, so when I heard The S.O.S. Band sample I became a fan instantly! Not to mention the video had that old '90's feel wit Herringbone necclaces& 40oz. of Malt Liquor.
Hey man this is one of the best videos I’ve seen in a while. Like genuinely, but I think you should rebrand your thumbnails slightly. I thought this was gonna be a basic rap lore type video and it’s been recommended to me a few times but I always skipped it bc the thumbnails This is an incredibly insightful, well spoken video and it does a great job at being simple yet a little technical? So I’ll definitely be checking out more of your videos and subbing just really think the brand identity at face value isn’t accurate to the quality of content.
Great video. People who know me know I've said this a ton of times, but LiveLoveASAP is hands down the best project of the new school. It ushered in a whole new sound that Drake, Thug and others rode to success. Opened up room for someone like a Metro Boomin to come thru.
I actually think the loss of regional sounds hurt hip hop. All the major hip hop producing regions were putting out good music. NY and the Tristate has a sound. LA had a sound. The Bay had a sound. Texas had a sound. Atlanta had a sound. Memphis had a sound. The Midwest had a sound. Part of what I think was so dope was being from NYC or Cali and hearing 3-6 and the Memphis sound and being like oh shit, that's totally different! Or hearing Slim Thug and UGK and it sounding so new and refreshing. There was something special about regional sounds.
I don’t think they were lost per se, so much as it was merely the potential of the main idea behind Rocky’s music , being that the once-strict guideline behind an artist’s style was no longer so pertinently bound to one’s hometown / coastal influences. Regional influence still very much exists, only difference is that now artists and scenes are no longer so limited & boxed into cultivating singular, communal sounds.
@@verbone Gresidela sounds like NY, Vince still has elements of the West coast, Sauce Walka still sounds like Texas, Yungeen Ace sounds like Florida, Mick Jenkins talks about Chicago in his music. Just because everyone doesn't sound similar in there region doesn't mean their region is loosing style or a sound.
I never listened to his 1st mixtape. I got introduced to him by his first album and the beats on there were crazy. I didn't realize back then he went against the grain of his own city and did his own thing. That's why you don't put yourself in a creative box because of where you are from.
Here in europe he‘s largely celebrated and appreciated, to the point where when i visited my us friends it almost felt disrespectful when they only knew him for 99 problemz
Great break down they were ahead of their time with their production thinking out side of the box is how you able to create something new and refreshing
Man honestly great video - loved how you broke down the beats and showed how it otherwise would have sounded, the amount of effort and detail is GREAT. Please please please continue with the quality this kind of channel is rare I love you
1. Fertilized Rihanna is crazy 2. Rocky's beats weren't categorized as down south trap type bests because of the percussion. It got that label because it sounded a lot like chopped and screwed which is usually slowed down and mellowed out beats like they are on LLAsap
i was actually brushing my teeth and shaving my beard while listening to this video, so i didn't see almost any of the visuals but still understood it completely and clearly. nice explanations gang
Not the kind of video I expected from you but still super happy to see this live love asap is in my top 3 mixtapes of all time along with duality and American corruption
"fertilized rihanna" 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
😏
Bro 💀
😭
Is she a plant🤣..smh
He wanted to say it that bad 😂
It's funny how LiveLoveAsap is such a time capsule mixtape. Not even Rocky has gone back to that sound.
Right I was a fan of the 1st project then nothing afterwards
but he did tho, sandman was recorded in 2019
Yeah, easily one of the very best hip-hop/rap projects from the 2010's. He never dropped anything quite as good since imo
Hov on the that new shit, niggas like how come?
Niggas want my old shit, buy my old album
Niggas stuck on stupid, I gotta keep it moving
Niggas make the same shit, me I make the blueprint. the history repeats itself.
@@ripsigurd ehhh sandman doesn’t really match that 2011 asap vibe, it’s a lot more of a modern clams casino rocky sound
Clams Casino is severely underrated imo. His sound has that outer space washed out reverb sound which was kind of like the precursor to those slowed+reverb mixes we have today and he was doing that in the 2010s.
Yeah he is probably the most original sounding hip hop producer of the last decade when you think about it
not really, chopped and screwed was done in the 1990s which is essentially slowed+reverb
@@NavieD "I'm God" is still one of the best beats ever
Tbf JPEGMafia has a very similar beat from the same era “I used to know her” and “Sakura”
DJ Screw and his chopped & screwed style were responsible for influencing slowed & reverb stuff. Clams definitely was one of the pillars of cloud rap movement in 2010s though.
That clams casino beat was so on point

I swear to god they all new gen

Super crazy because Rocky even shoutouts Lil B after paying homage by using his flow in Brand New Guy.

yooo you perfectly encapsulated clams sound thats nutssss dudeee. that beat is amazing
yesss, so fire! Clams really one of my favorites
This has been is my #1 favorite album since 2013,i feel like it actually sounds like new York even with the unique spacey sound. Its nostalgia now

Very nice breakdown and appreciate putting in the examples of what the producers didn't do
1. Fertilized Rihanna is crazy
2. Rocky's beats weren't categorized as down south trap type bests because of the percussion. It got that label because it sounded a lot like chopped and screwed which is usually slowed down and mellowed out beats like they are on LLAsap
