I ran into Fam at Macy's in San Fran I was a starving artist (I was eating flaming hot cheetos ) and I walked up to Preemo and told him thank you for all the stellar music he's made, he said thank you. Then I asked if I can give him a copy of my album , he said yeah. That was one of the coolest nights ever.
@@tochiRTA what!? Im black. Tf is that supposed to mean? How did you even come up with that conclusion? I clearly explained why…he let Preem speak in full detail of things, I never seen Preem go into childhood detail that much...
I must have heard every Primo interview. My personal fave interviews are the two he did with Micheal Rappaport. He was asking about specific snares and his production methods. Not that Preem was giving much away lol. Thats the stuff I wanna hear about though.
I‘m from Germany. I grew up with his music and had the chance to see him live 2007 in Heidelberg. he rocked the spot. What a night. Will never forget it
Back when i still lived back home in Amsterdam, I used to go see him all the time. He never fails, playing not only hip hop btw. DJ Premier is a living legend.
In TExas but grew up downtown BK. .Guru used to ride that little grey Saab around the hood, cool bro.. I was trying to get beats to him, that time yall were right before hard to earn album.. Downtown close to Tillary. Peace blessings. I had to realize how much of this history ties in to my lfie, I hAD TO Bookmark this interview as one of my favorites.. Ties so much in to me.
Peaze 2 Da Legendary Dj Premier🤘.....Give thx 4 this💯... Gang Starr 4 Eva R.I.P. GURU... Zalute Da Gang Starr Foundation...Greetz from Da Netherlands... One...
Absolutely fascinating interview. Awesome golden era stories. Hard to Earn, Moment of Truth, Step in the Arena and Daily Operation will always be some of the most significant and influential albums for me. Gangstarr Foundation for life.✊🏼 Mad props to the legendary DJ Premier.🙏🏼 RIP to the one and only Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal.🔥 Peace.
This was an awesome interview and Premier has all of these memories like it happened yesterday!! Premier will always be an Elite Hip Hop producer and wish him luck to be a Motion Picture soundtrack producer as well!!!
This was perhaps the most in-depth DJ Premier interview I've ever watched. Thank you! It would be great to see some photos of Premo and Guru's apartment one day.
Some people just *are* classic & Premier might be the best example of that. He doesn't have to do anything extra, doesn't have to change, "keep up with the times", or do no new nonsense. *Premier IS classic Hiphop* Evem more impressive to me than the Group Home album is that last Gang Starr album. It would be impressive if he made it sound like one of the old Gang Starr albums but he managed to make it sound like a genuine Gang Starr album that was ORIGINAL & different like it would be if Guru were alive. It's not "a classic", it IS classic. He would've had to fuck it up for it not to be cause he's Premier.
thats how I became aware of producers. Having "Hard to Earn" and seeing that dope picture of the foundation. Then seeing his name on the best cuts on Illmatic and Ready to Die and making the connection. I was like ok so the producer means something.....
my greatest inspiration to buy my first technics 1200's with my first salary and start learning to cut it up like premier. favorite producer & DJ since forever!
Learned & realized some new things here like DJ Premier's connection with Travis Scott's father, his last time with Guru and Big L's mother telling Lord Finesse that he's in charge with Big L's The Big Picture album.
As the biggest gangstarr fan I thought i was the only one who truely learned from this interview but apparently many other fans felt just like I did which shows how dedicated we are.. we hang on every word I love the way premier said in 1:09 he entered the ( you'll see mode ) I would love to have asked him where did guru write his rhymes.. was it in a nice place or was it in a messy room like most of us live like.. how long did it take guru from start to finish and did he have to stop in between to do daily chores like everyone else or did he lock himself away and ignore everyone Things like that are the most fascinating
What’s the name of the host? He’s a great interviewer. Asks thoughtful questions, listens intently and asks follow up questions and probably most importantly, doesn’t interrupt!
I hate how in the description the first rapper you want to mention in terms of DJ Premier’s collaboration is Jay Z… Preemo’s best work was displayed with Nas, not Jay Z. Talk about the collab album with Nas we all have been waiting decades for.
For you saying that goes to you that you hate Jay Z. Him and Jay did great work together. Him and Nas does great work together too but his best work is not with Nas only. Preemo does great work with everybody. Not just Nas. What about his other collabs? Also that Nas and Preemo collab is not gonna happen. That was talked about since early 2000s. It is what it is. Nas is known to say something to put it in the air and it never happens.
Premo brought that boom bap grittyness to NY before him there wasn't nobody...a Man from Texas inspired a whole new sound in NEW YORK he is New York grittyness he is the landscape in the late 80s early 90s all Thu the 90s etc....he also inspired MCS to step up lyrically over one of his beats a TRU Legend Premo and RIP to GURU
@@oskamadison NO DOUBT.. SOMEONE WAS UPSET WITH MY COMMENT BECAUSE THEY ERASED IT SO; @alantoler8266 PARTIALLY INCORRECT, LARRY SMITH, CED GEE AND MARLEY MARL LAID THE BLUEPRINT THAT DJ PREMIER EVOLVED IN BOOM BAP..
@DJ Premier, first of all, I'm a huge fan of your music and I really appreciate your interview videos, in particular because of your incredible ability to recall all those events to such great detail, including the names of all the individuals involved and present. That being said though, now that we learn how Diddy apparently was the Epstein of the rap industry (from the 'Jones v. Combs et al' 02/26/24 court files), I wonder whether you have witnessed or experienced any such activities at the Diddy parties you apparently attended - activities such as: drugs, spiked drinks, prostitutes, underage girls, grooming of artists into acts of homosexuality, and sexual blackmail (since Diddy's residences were fully rigged with hidden cameras) .. ?

Speak ya clout the 3 beats in one track jeru dap and guru tear these beats up ..primo has to be No1 for that NY sound
You can't go wrong with this list!
Great list but damn…Mass Appeal is one of the illest Hip Hop songs & beat of all time

Don't forget he amazing on the 1's an 2's also. Love his djing style - for sure his cuts are thee-most iconic ever in the game.
The man, the myth and the legend!
Nobody like Preem. To me, he's the epitome of Boom Bap.
He is boom bap
Not just to you. He is.
He definitely is
Boom Bap personified.🔊
I mean, he created Boom Bap
Back when i still lived back home in Amsterdam, I used to go see him all the time. He never fails, playing not only hip hop btw. DJ Premier is a living legend.
This man is so rich with great memories and a great life. No wonder he makes great records

Best Primo Interview Yet
The GOAT ...Made a classic with group home...If that doesn't make him a GOAT, nothing will
Some people just *are* classic & Premier might be the best example of that.
He doesn't have to do anything extra, doesn't have to change, "keep up with the times", or do no new nonsense. *Premier IS classic Hiphop*
Evem more impressive to me than the Group Home album is that last Gang Starr album. It would be impressive if he made it sound like one of the old Gang Starr albums but he managed to make it sound like a genuine Gang Starr album that was ORIGINAL & different like it would be if Guru were alive. It's not "a classic", it IS classic. He would've had to fuck it up for it not to be cause he's Premier.
Great questions, great responses, super inspiring and insightful interview.
LEGENDARY
From Lagos Nigeria. He’s the greatest. The best on drums … impeccable drum IQ
DJ Premier is one of a kind dude💪💪💪
Gangstarr has got to be the sure shot!!!!!! 🙏🏻💪✌️ Long live the Guru.
two and a half hours interview with my favorite producer? my body is ready!
When you read the booklet and it says ....Produced by Dj Premier...you know the track would hit you in your face
thats how I became aware of producers. Having "Hard to Earn" and seeing that dope picture of the foundation. Then seeing his name on the best cuts on Illmatic and Ready to Die and making the connection. I was like ok so the producer means something.....
my greatest inspiration to buy my first technics 1200's with my first salary and start learning to cut it up like premier. favorite producer & DJ since forever!
Phenomenal interview!
Thank you!
That was one of the best interviews I ever saw... Premier is the "Real-Deal" Amazing OG and Straight up Character (No Bullshit).... R.I.P Guru ✌️Out
Great interview
Great interview. Absolute legend.
The greatest hip hop producer ever by MILES
Fantastic interview and great job placing everything on a timeline
Glad you enjoyed it!
Legend!
Premier IS the BEST! If you think of hiphop its PREMIER❤
This is the best Preemo interview I've seen in a long time. The questions were on point...
The track he did with krs1 rakim and nas was soooooo dope timeless
0:19 DJ Premier great Producer DJ everything classic
One of my heroes. It's a short list. But there he is.
Preemo the goat! Shouted out Playland!! Many great memories spent there growing up.
Learned & realized some new things here like DJ Premier's connection with Travis Scott's father, his last time with Guru and Big L's mother telling Lord Finesse that he's in charge with Big L's The Big Picture album.
Love this extended interview. I seen the first one dope but this one is even better.

Things like that are the most fascinating
Just imagine hip hop without this man... Preem is THE GOAT
Amazing interview! ✌🏽❤️
What’s the name of the host? He’s a great interviewer. Asks thoughtful questions, listens intently and asks follow up questions and probably most importantly, doesn’t interrupt!
I loved listening to The Thunderstorm with Dj Premier on WBLS. There are a few rips of this show floating around but i need more haha.
Preemo defines the boom bap sound. Pure raw and uncut hip hop 🔥🔥💯
Wow I never knew he was from Texas making a east coast sound
premier is the best thing that ever happened to hip hop
I went to NYC Fresh Fest 1985 in Long Beach i still have my ticket stub!!!
THEE GREATEST OF ALL TIME
WOW! love primo
Great interview!
Premo is won of my top 5 producers- Group Home instrumental Album is won of many classics
do you ever change the title of your songs or album mid-way thru the process??
Almost 😢 when he was talking about visiting Guru in the hospital.
My dog is named Premier. When people know why, we become instant friends.
I had a Rottweiler named Guru 🔥
Living legend 👑
💎GOAT!!!ONE of the best yet!👑⚙⛓🎹🥁🎤
💾LEGENDARY PREEM!!Peace! 🏆

Very sympathetic guy :) (the host, too:))
Heyyyy shouts to momma from BMore. But is she out west or ova east.. she gets it. 🐐TY P
I had to read the title twice …is it Christmas again my gracious

Premo is easily the GOAT in my opinion. No one has been as consistent and has a catalogue as deep as Preem.
Shalom That's Tha Spirit Of Guru Tha Elder Going Off In Tha Wheelchair So Preme Can See Has Brother Guru!

wait a minute preemo is from houston tx? i thought he was from houston street...
Preemo's memory is crazy
one of the best, if you don't agree you prob wasn't there!

The Absolute Hardest shit Prem ever did was The Oracle wit Vinnie Paz... to me nothing comes close lol. So so many perfect records he made thou...
