Sample Breakdown: Madvillainy

Madvillainy is a now legendary collaboration album by MF DOOM, who provides the lyrics, and Madlib, who handles production. The two come together to form Madvillainy.
Madlib is notorious for sourcing his samples from the strangest and least expected of places, and as a result some of the samples he has used are still unknown. This video will breakdown the main samples used on the album - that is, the samples that make up the majority of the beat. If I was to feature every vocal sample and drum loop used I'd be here forever.
As this is the first video I've uploaded to this channel I welcome any constructive criticism you may have. Also let me know if you have any albums you'd particularly like to see me breakdown the samples of.
Finally, I hope you enjoy the video!

It's crazy how Madlib picks his samples in a way that makes them all sound like they came from the same band.
Not really (to me) .. they sound like they all came OUT of the same man
@@roderigodelahegbone5815 Pretty much what he said there, killer 👌🏼
@@roderigodelahegbone5815 ayo
America's Most Sampled
Jay Fisar damn right yo
I recommend reading up on the album Paul's Butique with The Beastie Boys ;)
420th like 😆 *america’s most blunted*
Madlib nominated for chopping the best loops
Listen to the avalanches
MADLIB diggin in so many crates for these classics
Nice profile picture.
It's the loop digga!
Stephen Mooney Not all of these were produced by Madlib, DOOM does make beats too you know. All of Operation Doomsday was produced by DOOM.
he indeed is impressive
Stephen Mooney Company flow!
Accordion is one of the tightest songs ever
Lyricism is crazy, beat is ass
You played yourself
Word up!! I can jam it all day!!
Is this just me, or did anyone else think that Dadaelus was in the music video?
@@poseidon6916 i agree with you, instrumental really makes vocal pop but i personally dislike it
HOW DOOM HOLD HEAT AND PREACH NON VIOLENCE????
Shh he bout to start the speech come on silence
On one scary night I saw the light heard a voice that sounded like Barry White,said”sho you right”
Rip raid :P
Can he not defend himself? Thats probably the best tool for self-defense especially against another shooter.
Ankstuh H hey dude listen to Raid in Madvillainy
he flipped that sample on Raid from 6/8 to 4/4... madlibs insane
versus beats, not that hard to do. just chop it up :)
That's 3/4 my dude
Still super impressive though
sounds like he just doubled it up
oh shit that is 3/4 lol it's sooooooooooooo good
My loves - Lil B

thank you based god🏁
The Based God knows good music

I thought Madlib literally sampled Spongebob in Meat Grinder..
Me too
I thought it was Tom sawyer by rush
Same here

The only thing i'm asking myself continuously while watching this video is where the hell he got these from, some of these are like weird indie bands from the 70's no one ever heard of. Madlib is truly one of the greatest of all time
Jippe Hiemstra just random digging
That's why it's called diggin in the crates
Jippe Hiemstra That's why Madlib is The Loop Digga!
He visited lots of stores where he bought records and listened to them
Some of this stuff might be considered deep cuts but the majority is mad obvious out in the open stuff if youre into music or more accurately if you're a hip hop scholar. I think that's kinda a cool thing about Madlib (and Doom, yeah he wasn't the one doing the sampling on this although it was a collaborative effort for sure)'s style is that its referential if you come at music at large from a hip hop perspective. I remember that was my first reaction to doomsday; like ok well he just went ahead and made theeese beaats hah cool word etc. At that time it wasn't necessarily cool to just go ahead and loop up Sade. A lot of stuff from that time, like I remembered not really being able to use Vangelis and Phillip Glass samples and then being impressed when I heard El P do it or being fucking vex when Phrenology came out and Queslove flipped the exact same Flying Lizards loop I had on the shelf (I was a dumb kid then). Point is hip hop is a doorway into a greater appreciation of music, dig and actually listening to the records and certain revered producers (who i wont mention here) feel like fucking parasites and others can really be appreciated as musicians. All kinds of music that has legitimately made me a happier person that i wouldn't have given a second if it wasn't for hip hop. Anyway just ranting on this tip cause the internet tends to have a poor longterm memory. Maybe to some extent the thrill of the chase is gone if you're not grabbing $30 of mystery $1 records but at the same time as someone who used to do that the intenet has thrown those loop digger instincts - but fuck that, musical prowess into warp drive. Just be curious. Music is life. I think all the best hip hop producers practice a roll as a listener, selector as well as a musician using a sampler etc as their instrument. It's a pretty decent philosophy in general. Definitely though the whole framework of this shit is right out in the open if you do some homework. People like Madlib and a handful of hip hop producers dating back to Bam etc feel they have a responsibility to educate and encourage eclecticism. Eclecticism is fundamental to hip hop.
I was so embarrassed the time I met madlib cause I was spaced out for a few seconds before I realized he tried to shake my hand 🤦♀️
Bruh
At least you met him lmao
@@blossm4002 True you got to meet one of the best producers ever that's an amazing experience
How did you meet him?
No excuse for such disrespect
"Eye" is THE most underrated track on this masterpiece by a long way. That flip and the loop Madlib caught there is exactly why he will always be in the top 5 greatest producers of all time discussion.
Eye used to be my least favorite track on the album, now every time i hear it im captivated by how utterly gorgeous the instrumental and vocals are. Its such a great mood change to chill things out and hit your soul, before going back to the cerebral onslaught of DOOM.
Ik, it’s fucking amazing. Eye is definitely underrated. And I feel like it’s crucial for the flow of the album.
Eye don’t know what say.
eye is top 5
Incredible flip. I still dont get it how did he flipped sample like that.
It's not just sampling that's an art, it's the placement of the sample as well. The placement is much more difficult than the actual sampling.
With these fists I’m swift to whip some shit up, snatch the vinyl, add a fucking bassline n i’ll, add some flavour. I’ll add some bill Evans trio. Cuz they funky. Definitely rocking. Jazz is the plug. You are the socket . Boom like rocket?
George duke
K Ford 🔥🔥🔥
If you think about it, these songs get a second chance in the spotlight
ART❤
A lot of people will never understand how magical it was to hear this music paired with Boondocks
Boondocks got me even more into DOOM
I agree. That’s how I first head music from Madvillain:
Imma watch this now👀
Older adult swim😢
damn i better watch boondocks then
These last few hours have been tough, going through the late kings discography could bring a tear to one's eye
Already listened to both KMD albums and Madvillainy today
I feel the same way, man. Gonna miss him and his music.
The news came at basically midnight, on Jan 1, in our country; I was going to sleep. Spent the entire time listening to his discography instead. Terrible way to start the year.
I cried for like an hour straight when i heard the news
I aint cryin, its the rain i promise
Fancy Clown was for sure ahead of its time
How so?
Daniel Levy its a song about viktor vaughn talking shit about doom,
doom is the muthafuckin villain and also the main character in madvillainy, not only does mf put it down by writing a coherent story and diss track,its about his own persona,
and the sample used matches perfectly with the whole
“youve been trippin around uptown wooin some fancy clown”
doom is like reenforcing the fact that hes a vile fucker by writing a song where he steals some dudes girl from another perspective, song is definitely one of my favorites on the album and of his entire career
My favorite song on the album
Like, Imagine being so UNTOUCHABLE that you have to go out of your way to diss yourself, and make it sound amazing at the same time?
That's why I love DOOM.
The way Mad chops and screws the vocal melody as DOOM starts rapping is eargasmic
Flip it like Madlib did the old jazz standard.
Meta bar
(Instrumental break)
Nothing but dopeness, for those who appreciate music
bert fromarketin word
Terri Willis nice breakdown. You're right!
Danknes
Jennie RedRose I'm wit u on that true story.
Living off borrowed time the clock tick faster - classic line
One of my favourite albums of all time in any genre
Greg C dude I’m mostly a fan of extreme metal/hardcore punk but I absolutely adore this album. It’s just a masterpiece that transcends genre. Everyone who enjoys music needs to hear it.
Strange Ways is one of the greatest tracks ever, pity it is tooooooo short...
SatanDynastyKiller most slept on track on the album
Not too short. Rather Madlib knows how to tease heads
If it were longer it might not be considered "the greatest" track
SatanDynastyKiller makes it even better
Every track is too short
Love this album, Meatgrinder beat is insane.
Dav sound like some Spongebob Squarepants theme
madlib didn't do anything to the original, nothing impressive at all
Barney
Who said it was impressive?
@@Barney-ii1no and im sure you still couldnt make something 1/10 of how impressive it is h8r
Barney there’s beauty in its simplicity. The beat is sick as fuck and chopping it to hell would take away from it IMO.
Figaro samples are just absolutely incredible. Perfect melody.
never knew it was lonnie, love that guy
Madlib ownes copies of all of those records. Insane
elder jerome imagine a madlib record store
how is that insane?
Not unimaginable. If you regularly go to record stores, you will often walk away with a lot of music across the entire musical spectrum
@@MrBranh0913 4 rooms tho is insane
He's called the beat konducta for a reason
Sampling gives new life to sounds most people either never heard or never exposed to , as a beat constructor I like to find sounds not previously used by any artist .
That’s part of the reason why I like hip hop. All the samples!
I didn't value Jazz until I listened to enough hip hop
That rhinestone cowboy flip is next level. Like the fact that he heard mariana mariana and thought to do what he did has always blew my mind.
Madlibs mind works in strange ways
Thought I’d pay a visit after hearing we lost the villain himself. ALL CAPS when you spell the man’s name.
WHERE THE FUCK IS THE IRONSIDE SONG??????? I CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE
@@donity-alva4838 ruclips.net/video/lq_2X89pc5I/видео.html
the "Eye" flip is SO genius... just an incredible beat. the filter he put on there... man. calling him "one of the greats" is almost selling him short! peace to the god the Beat Konducta
Smyth it literally moved me to tears
That airport love theme though...Curls definetly my favorite track in Madvillainy.
89 Til Infinity and that’s how you supposed to chop a sample. Salute to Madlib
Same
Curls is definitely my favorite track of all time
“Living of borrowed time, the clock ticks faster That’d be the hour they knock the sick blaster”
RIP DOOM ALL CAPS FOREVER
Yep R.I.P. MF.DOOM
Never realised that daedelus (the guy at 0:20) was the man playing the accordion in the music video
Manus that’s true? Damn that’s crazy
I thought I was trippin lol
Good catch
wow
Yep that's the whole budget of the clip lol
You know an album is great when you can do nothing but LIKE every comment you see about it bc everybody’s loving it too.
💯
Rhinestone Cowboy brought a tear to my eye when I first heard it
Same
Great to know I'm not the only one
Same, this one and accordion are my favorite
Same here
I think what makes Madvillainy stand out is how different it sounds. Nothing can be compared to it, even to this day. The obscurity of the records that are used as samples on here are ingenious. Madlib really outdid himself here. Then throw in DOOM’s unorthodox, clumsy, off-kilter, abrasive flow paired with his unique skill as a lyricist and you have the making of a timeless classic.
It at times sounds like it's from 2022, and then 1990, even though it dropped the same time as krunk shit was coming out lmfao
I think some of the madlib and freddie gibbs collabs sound somewhat similar
Sampling at it very best... Genius
Cliff Simz 2nd best samples. J dilla takes the GOLD. Even madlib agrees (: silver
trinity27777 Nujabes 3rd
Avalanches #1
THE ALL CAPS SAMPLE, HOLY BALLS MADLIB
WHAT IS IT?!! I CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE
@@donity-alva4838 11:00
@@donity-alva4838 ironside murder opening theme, i cant find it anywhere either
binge watching everything and anything DOOM
10:30 we all agree Supervillain Theme flip was crazy?
facts 💀
That and sickfit were insane sample flips
This hits different after his death
I wanted more of his music, discovered his work few months ago
This made me appreciate this alnum 10x more. Madlibs sampling is insane. They are the perfect duo.
Supervillain theme gets me hyped af every single time I hear it.
Watching this after the news of his passing. Rest in Power King Geedorah, Victor Vaughn, MF DOOM, your rapper’s favorite rapper
Dumile is resting in peace. DOOM is never dead.
The beat for “eye” is so smooth
Rest in Peace to the illest ever
I love EYE so much - idk y but I find it so hypnotic
My question is, how did he get all of these samples cleared without those old heads tripping?
The producers dont clear their shit
Not a major commercial release. Even though they have a strong following they have a relatively small following.
Hazael Morel that is not true
Especially the Zappa one. His wife was so aggressive on copyright after he died
Some of them so obscure they can be had for nothing if you ask nicely enough, (have the right connections) others cheaply or you pay x If you sell 100k, xx if you sell 1mm. Especially if they think you're a nobody because your DBA is well hidden.
this album cured me from feeling lonely in a very dark point of my life. I'm broken because the world has lost it's villain, one who is well-skilled in destruction, as well as building, but at the same time I'm happy I get to witness a legend in real time. See you in the future DOOM, much love!
My favorite hip hop album
ALL CAPS WHEN YOU SPELL THE MANS NAME
And Sean Cee apparently didnt need this video because he knows every beat lol
SergioTov Such a clown he is 😂😂
Haha I was looking for this comment
Top 5 rap albums ever made.
If the voice saying, "how do you do?" A snipbit from the Casablanca movie?
Umpteen Expression Im pretty sure it's from Citizen Kane.
I think its from spellbound by Hitchcock.
I think it's Hagrid from Lord of the rings
I think it’s from Sandstorm by Darude
I thought I was the only one who heard that...I was always like that's when Lazlo comes to Casablanca...
I'm so glad my finger slipped and I got to see this!
Renasense ain’t life crazy
That ironside flip is tripping
This shit is still fresh, never gets old. Adding to the voices in the comments seems redundant, but damn I need to express my appreciation for this straight up masterpiece. Bless you Madlib and MF Doom.
MF DOOM* (ALL CAPS, MAN)
ALL CAPS WHEN YOU SPELL THE MANS NAME
who else gets the chills like crazy listening to this? RIP MF DOOM
Throwing this album on my stereo, driving to the top of the parking garage of my university, sparking up a joint was one of my favorite things to do to unwind and chill after a long day of classes
That sounds like it’d be a fuckin smooth ass trip. Something like that is needed,especially at a time like this
The "Sleeping in a jar" sample is Mothers of Invention, not experience. It's Frank Zappas band :)
Uncle meat
It’s the middle of the night / And your mommy and your daddy are sleeping…
The Villain with the illest flow in all of mexico...
Madlib ain't a producer, he's a sorcerer with the shit he samples lolol. respect
The "Eye" instrumental is INSANE one of my favourite instrumentals ever by far
madlib reached across decades and cultures to curate these sounds for us. and only THEN does DOOM come in to send everything into the stratosphere
This is beyond outstanding!!! Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm overjoyed.
Oshit that’s him playing the accordion
R. I. P. Dumile
Never will there be another.
Do Not Fire! remains as one of my all time favorite tracks for how weird it is and still managing to go hard as all hell
I’m convinced madlib invented vaporwave
that was James Ferraro
DOOM invented it 2 years earlier on the Zatar beat
bistro really reminded me of vaporwave
bruh yall know vapowave was inspired by dj screw
I hate these kinds of comments
Some of these references are so obscure, I’m surprised anyone even found or still listen to them.
God, love Eye so much
Wow thanks for putting this together. It really makes me appreciate the production even more.
12:36 Madlib. The 🐐For Flipping This
Shawn cee recognized all these allegedly 😭😭
He a clown
Imagine taking Drake fans seriously
@@SpineRipper93 He has such a small amount of hip hop history, it's sad
Most underrated MC of all time
Man, I love this. These breakdown videos make me so feel so grateful that I get to live in an era with such great artist I get to witness these blends, it’s incredible🙏🔥
This is sample porn, makes my ears tingle. Madlib is something else 😊
One of the best in the hip-hop history. Figaro should be studied at schools.
Great compilation, HipHopNT! your hard work pulling all these clips together is well appreciated.
16 samples on America’s most blunted and only one included 😭
So So Dope... DOOM & Madlib geniuses at work.
Genius work. Still sounds fresh in 2019. 💥💥💥
Fam, this mini-docu is BRILLIANT!! Thanks for putting in the work!!
Was that daedelus in the background with the accordion?
I think so
It is.
damn one of the best videos from youtube recommendation in the past 3 months... thanks man!
It's amazing the music you find from researching hip hop samples.
1:00 that's The Mothers Of "Invention"
yep im an idiot
HipHopNT: Yeah djeezus, you fucked up bigtime man, what where you thinking?
Good upload thanx dude. Loved it.
Liked just cause you found the intro to Raid, been wondering about that for 10 years now
Oh my GOD I just found what I'll be doing this weekend, researching and falling in love with each song!
The "how do you do" sample in Bistro is from Casablanca
Not only have you got to be talented as hell to sample like this, but man, you need to be a real musical connoisseur, especially in a time when internet wasn't so widespread. Amazing
SickFit is one of the best beats I’ve ever heard, madlib flipped tf out of the sample
Fr, not every producer would even think to flip that snippet of the sample
I love how he was able to use so many different things and change them up to create ALL CAPS just from that short flim(?) intro
RIP Dumile, thanks for leaving us with this masterpiece
fun fact, the guy playing the accordion in the Accordion video is Daedalus
I honestly don't feel smart enough nore worthy enough to appreciate this man's craft. He's my favorite genius hip hop artists favortite artist. Mf a class of his own
That Z.Z. Hill song is a great song jus by it self..
Madvillainy is like listening to music that a human created from a different world. The more you listen, the better it gets. It's so alien, but it all makes sense... I've only listened to it 3 times, and honestly, I think I'll need at least a dozen more listens to fully appreciate this.
You're a great person for laying all of this out and appreciating the great diversity that went into the madness of Doom. S'cuse me, the Madlib of Doom.
Great work putting this together.
eye is such an underrated track from this album
I remember watching the old Tex Avery cartoon that is sampled at the end of strange ways.
I watched this hoping I could find the name of the cartoon so I could see it after all these years.. dope video tho.
Symphony in Slang is the cartoon
That was Symphony in Slang.. (That Sample was Written by Tex Avery and Rich Hogan, with Music by Scott Bradley)
Dude, idc what you break down next. Just keep doin' what you're doin', this was a great vid.
9:55 I need one of whatever the guy in the red jacket is having
