never thought something I did for the love of the music that brought me up would get to this big. Thank you everyone that helped spread the word!! I know I didn't do ALL of the history of Hip-Hop, or everybody's complete lists, I did miss many greats - but these I wrote down by heart, no research, just beats that changed the game for me. (And YES - of course I did Harlem Shake just because it was f***king impossible to orchestrate!!) Let me know what tracks would you add?? would love to do that someday. JIMEK
JIMEK Please travel with this, its so powerful. The pain and struggle that goes into HipHop/RnB etc needs an orchestra to deliver it. I need an entire concert one day. AMAZING! WOW! Brings tears to my eyes.
JIMEK Id Love to have all this as one album please? To byłaby cudowna sprawa. Our own polish little "London Phillharmonic Orchestra" with albums consisting of popculture themes. With HipHop or Video Game music.
JIMEK Biggie - Big Poppa Drake - Started From The Bottom Tupac - California Love (kinda hard haha) Ice Cube - Today Was A Good Day Lil Wayne - Mirror Mac Miller - Donald Trump Naughty By Nature - Feel Me Flow
NOSPR kawał grajków... jedna z najlepszych synfonicznych orkiestr w polsce o ile nie najlepsza :) cieszy mnie to, że mają wkoncu po latach swój dom i to jaki...
The point of grateness of this piece is not in the choice of the songs. It is hidden in the maestry of rewriting it for the orchestra. It is very pleasent for an ordinary listener. It is a grate joy to discover the songs you know. But personally I also made some notes and looked for the songs I didn't know till now. So that's what it is about. Enjoy the classical music and spread your horizons!!! THUMBS UP!!!
The orchestration is something special, but let's just take a second to appreciate how DEEP in the crates some of these cuts are. Not just an achievement in music, but one made possible by a man who truly loves the form and its history.
Wyjdźmy z kompleksów. To jest światowy poziom i dowód na to, że Polacy nie gęsi... Oby tak dalej. Każdy z nas może dołożyć cegiełkę w swojej dziedzinie. Pozdro.
kchkaceha Not at all. Hip-hop's musical background is very simple both to hear and rewrite, and to perform (simple structure, short, no dynamics, simple articulation). Boringly simple for musician with classical training. And thi orcherstra is one of the best in the world- If some famous orchestra can't play something, these people can, no problem. Not to mention a tiny fact that Jimek even didn't have to orchestrate Simon Says, because originally it's Akira Ifukube "Godzilla appears", thoug this one is also that simple, it's quicker to rewrite this or play from hearing, than to order a score from Japan.
Nigdy nie sądziłam, że będę mogła usłyszeć to wykonanie na żywo, a jednak... Niesamowite doznanie, nie do opisania słowami. Jedyne co mogę napisać: Dziękuje za wczoraj !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is literally the most amazing thing I've seen. I was smiling through the entire thing. Maybe even some light chuckles. Hope you do more work like this!
At 4:26, I love the entire crowd recognizes the iconic opening of Dr. Dre’s famous “Still Dre!” 👏👏🤩🤩 I love this entire orchestra paying tribute to classic Hip-Hop even the ones from back in the day! 💯
Amazing. I felt the soul, the beat the MANA as we call it in New Zealand. A pure talent, my childhood presented all fancy like on a silver platter of musical goodness.
@Jimek, I teach high school orchestra in United States (Wisconsin). Is there a way to get the music for this to perform with my students? Is it available for purchase or rental?
Liebe heutige Generation, ja, das ist Musik die durch die Seele geht! Das muss erstmal jemand können! Ich bin begeistert und hoffe das es irgendwann Musiker gibt die genau so ihre Konzerte spielen! Mega!
This has got to be the tenth time I've listened to this! Totally had me searching for blends of music! If only you could blend people together like this music!!
Wg mnie najlepsze ukazanie, jak bardzo hip-hop jest zmienny i jak można w oryginalny sposób ukazać go dla szerokiego spectrum ludzi. Choć dla mnie Still D.R.E. w wersji orkiestralnej to mistrzostwo świata !!!!!! JIMEK, szacun za to !!!!!!!!!!
On a lighter note, anyone else noticed how most of the audience recognized exactly 4 songs: Still Dre, Get Your Freak On, What’s the Difference and Crazy in Love. 5 if you include Harlem Shake. So many goosebumps while listening to this arrangement. Big up Jimek and team!!
Jimek's orchestra truly gives it's viewers a life changing experience. Jimek has unraveled some of the greatest musical anomalies and exposed their masterpiece. Jimek is one of the greatest modern age orchestral arrangers.
Fantastyczny niesamowicie utalentowany artysta! Nowatorskie i swieze ujecie muzyki dalekiej od 'powaznej'. Jestem dumna JIMEK ze mamy w Polsce takich jak Ty.
Filmik poleciła mi moja matula po której nie spodziewałabym się zainteresowania rapem i przyznaję że początkowo podchodziłem sceptycznie do oglądania... ale już po niecałej minucie stwierdziłem że sztos :) Props panie Radzimirze.
I just read this! THIS was in POLAND!! HAHA AWESOME! My grandma would love you!!! I'm half Polish she was 100%!! She had a sign "You bet ya dupa I'm Polish" haha and "Ya cie kocham" (spelling) TY brother!
Forget that, but don't forget about Dre. Kendrick might be called the heir to hip hop, but he's kind of like the shit heir who no body remembers because he didn't do anything worth remembering.
Wow! Who would ve ever thought???!!! Comin' where we come from...and Hip-Hop's most humble beginings- trained classic musical artists cover our artform to display THEY talents!!!
I'm proud of you, respect for Radzimir Polish composer. Jestem bardzo dumny ze mamy tak utalentowanego kompozytora a takze z polaczenia orkiestry z hip-hopem-masakra -dziękuję Ci i zycze sukcesow. Pozdrawiam
I don't listen to hip-hop or rap all that much anymore, but I'm familiar with some of the hit singles he composed and made arrangements for. I must say that I am impressed. I'm always impressed when composers are willing to not just go "old school," composing music from previous musical eras (like Renaissance, Classical, and Romantic), but also do orchestral renditions of modern music. Gives a sense "old school" meeting and meshing with "new school." Love it!
Hey Jimek first of all thank you for your great work and the amazing experience we all have listening to this masterpiece! You know we all loved this video,but.... COME ON we're waiting for PART 2!
Kurczaki....Chłopie...nigdy nie byłam fanką hip-hopu, no ale w takim wykonaniu...fiu, fiu!!!! GRATKI!! I powiem Ci jeszcze Stary...fajnie, że robisz to, co robisz pod naszą polską banderą!!! Szacuneczek!

JIMEK Is there, or will it be a full album with this versions?

All these years later watching this again, this is still great and makes me smile. Kudos
This performance brought tears to my eyes. Have to see this live.
i was crying like a bitch bro hahahaha
Rightttt?!?!! This was so amazing.
Me too
It's showing respect to the hip hop community by showing them some love. Well played ladies and gents.
Hip hop talent is through the roof.
there needs to be a full piece done on "flashing lights" at the 2:35 mark
Gagan S yes love that cover
Try Kanye West - Late Orchestration.
Sounds like something straight out of a James Bond soundtrack.
Yes ^^^ what they said! You have gotta consider doing a full version of flashing lights seriously! A full version would be perfection!
Portland Cello Project. Check it out
When JIMEK came to Kenya, he joined my list of favourite composers. ❤
Jak wchodzi "Still D.R.E.", to mnie ciarki przechodzą. Oj, jakże bym chciała, żeby wyszedł cały kawałek w Jimkowej aranżacji!
oj tak tak +1
Two worlds became one....Hip Hop and Classical. That was truly inspiring. Thank you for some amazing music.
Gurmeet singh not classical, it's 70s spy movie soundtrack style
NOSPR kawał grajków... jedna z najlepszych synfonicznych orkiestr w polsce o ile nie najlepsza :) cieszy mnie to, że mają wkoncu po latach swój dom i to jaki...
I got chills at Dear Mama. What a beautiful composition.
Same bro but they needed more 2pac music:(Like Ambizion has a rider,Hail Mary,and etc
👍👍❤
Me too, dude, me too ❤
ATCQ - "Electric Relaxtion"! 1:56
jeffrey r Should've got a standing ovation!

+arturp82 Brawo Jimek!!!
It's fantastic! I can't even imagine how hard those people had to work to do something like that! Amazing job!!!

+kchkaceha If you kisten to the songs these are the instrumentals involved... check em out.
kchkaceha this is very simple compared to some pieces we play
5 Years later and I am still inspired and moved by this.
Mamy wakacje 2024, a cieszy jak 9 lat temu 🤩
Nigdy nie sądziłam, że będę mogła usłyszeć to wykonanie na żywo, a jednak... Niesamowite doznanie, nie do opisania słowami. Jedyne co mogę napisać: Dziękuje za wczoraj !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is literally the most amazing thing I've seen. I was smiling through the entire thing. Maybe even some light chuckles. Hope you do more work like this!
props to the 2 drummers who were ON POINT all the way through!
We need a whole album with these 😍😍😍
A part 2 with a whole new list of songs would be AMAZING
At 4:26, I love the entire crowd recognizes the iconic opening of Dr. Dre’s famous “Still Dre!” 👏👏🤩🤩 I love this entire orchestra paying tribute to classic Hip-Hop even the ones from back in the day! 💯
This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen I have such a deep appreciation for music and instruments. I love it.
I had goosebumps through the whole video. Thanks for doing this.
Amazing. I felt the soul, the beat the MANA as we call it in New Zealand. A pure talent, my childhood presented all fancy like on a silver platter of musical goodness.
It's really crazy that you can play any hip-hop song and nothing happens but when you play still dre ,it brings a lot of emotions.
way too much love for dre. seemed like it was a dre event how skeweed it was. whatever
@Jimek, I teach high school orchestra in United States (Wisconsin). Is there a way to get the music for this to perform with my students? Is it available for purchase or rental?
Czy tylko ja słucham tego kilkanaście razy dziennie ?? Kocham tooo!!
I knew that still dre would get an applause. Masterpiece. They don't make music like that anymore.
I LOVE THIS!!!! I wish I could see it live...I am head bobbing and dancing in my chair, LOL!!! So many great songs...
Oh pleaseee do this again and give me the opportunity to buy tickets this was amazing! 🥲😀
Liebe heutige Generation, ja, das ist Musik die durch die Seele geht! Das muss erstmal jemand können! Ich bin begeistert und hoffe das es irgendwann Musiker gibt die genau so ihre Konzerte spielen! Mega!
This has got to be the tenth time I've listened to this! Totally had me searching for blends of music! If only you could blend people together like this music!!
"Nie muszę wracać" było takie idealne. ❤
Wg mnie najlepsze ukazanie, jak bardzo hip-hop jest zmienny i jak można w oryginalny sposób ukazać go dla szerokiego spectrum ludzi.
Choć dla mnie Still D.R.E. w wersji orkiestralnej to mistrzostwo świata !!!!!!
JIMEK, szacun za to !!!!!!!!!!
On a lighter note, anyone else noticed how most of the audience recognized exactly 4 songs:
Still Dre, Get Your Freak On, What’s the Difference and Crazy in Love.
5 if you include Harlem Shake.
So many goosebumps while listening to this arrangement. Big up Jimek and team!!
Za każdym razem gdy tego słucham mam dreszcze ! Coś pięknego !
Oglądam to wielokrotnie i nie mogę wyjść z podziwu kunsztu. Mega talent i ogromny pokłon dla Twojej pracy Jimek :-)
Od kiedy założyłem konto na RUclips czyli w czerwcu 2019 to myślę, że to najlepszy film jaki oglądałem na RUclips od tego czasu:)
Przepraszam, mówię po angielsku i musiałem używać tłumaczenia Google, ale może moglibyśmy sobie pomóc?
This guy needs an award for being able to make the Harlem Shake work
That harlem shake was good my mind was blown
This guy needs an award. Period.
He made that joint slay!
Co tu dużo mówić ojciec prawdziwy wirtuoz ,to i syn ogromny talent w nowym i orginalnym stylu . Naprawde ogromny szacun.
Człowieku lepiej sprawdź mamę, Myśli precz, Hey Man lub stan pogody.
Kayne West's Flashing Lights was so on point!!! Good job Bro, pozdro!
We need "Metal History Orchestrated by JIMEK" !!!
It won’t be as fly! While the genre style will change, it defeats the purpose. Metal is already created with authentic instruments.
Dumni bardzo. Życzymy absolutnych sukcesów na międzynarodowych scenach :D
Jimek's orchestra truly gives it's viewers a life changing experience. Jimek has unraveled some of the greatest musical anomalies and exposed their masterpiece. Jimek is one of the greatest modern age orchestral arrangers.

Co jakiś czas słucham z wielką przyjemnością tej aranżacji/kompozycji... Myślę sobie, jak pięknie muzyka łączy. Dzisiaj przeczytałem komentarze... ehh
Filmik poleciła mi moja matula po której nie spodziewałabym się zainteresowania rapem i przyznaję że początkowo podchodziłem sceptycznie do oglądania... ale już po niecałej minucie stwierdziłem że sztos :)
Props panie Radzimirze.
I just read this! THIS was in POLAND!! HAHA AWESOME! My grandma would love you!!! I'm half Polish she was 100%!! She had a sign "You bet ya dupa I'm Polish" haha and "Ya cie kocham" (spelling) TY brother!
Thats So cool 👑👑👑👑👑 goats!!!

GFUNK FOR THE WIN BABY
Bardzo to czuję, i za każdym razem mam gęsią skórkę ❤
Swimming Pools sounds so beautiful
+Too Soon Junior i want a full version of simming pools ocistra :(
Jholiday Me too, the shoudlve atleast made it longer
Forget that, but don't forget about Dre. Kendrick might be called the heir to hip hop, but he's kind of like the shit heir who no body remembers because he didn't do anything worth remembering.
I have to agree, that was probably the best part of the video
Derploop look at his track record first
Wow, this has got to be one of the greatest things I've ever seen in my life. On that note, WHERE'S OUTKAST?!?!?1
Yeah man i agree....100% where my Atl niggaz at?been listenin' to Bboi and dre 3000 since i was a kid... He could or even should put em in......
A million other hiphop tunes before Outlast.... What about 100miles and running
I KNOW!!!!!! WOWOWOWOWOWOWWOOWOOWOWOW!!!!
I bet Roses woulda sounded SWEET
WOW that was amazing!
I would've hoped you made an orchestral version of Gangsters Paradise by Coolio
that would've been soooo awesome :D
Dario Zuban Exactly my thought
Yes!! I second that as a future request!
Dario Zuban too ez pz
can you send me the link? :)
Dario Zuban /watch?v=WycR6qZeOV4 enjoy ;)
Uwielbiam Pana muzykę. Jest Pan jak dla mnie najlepszym współczesnym kompozytorem. Gratuluję talentu i życzę wielu sukcesów.
I'm waiting PART 2 JIMEK!
Still
It would be better to see it live. That would be amazing. Don’t you agree?
Tommy Thompson 100%
In interview he told that there are 4 different versions of "Hip hop history" but we can listen them only at concerts, here in Poland.
Its bouncing as I type this stay tuned 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Fantastyczne przedsięwzięcie. Żałuję że tak późno znalazłem taką perełkę, ale lepiej późno niż wcale! Jedna miłość.
YOUUU NEEED TO MAKE A FULL TRACK OF SWIMMING POOLS IS SOO BEAUTIFUL 😍😍
Missed the old days hip hop, each song had its own rythm and instrumental identity
4 sure. One love.peace!
Well most of them sampled from Jazz, orchestras and other genres... but I understand what you mean
@@EaZyGoiN12 yes, and nothing we can do about it, times change, so do music. Each got its own era
People still be making music like this. Just gotta look a lil harder and keep an open mind...
?
Wow! Who would ve ever thought???!!!
Comin' where we come from...and Hip-Hop's most humble beginings- trained classic musical artists cover our artform to display THEY talents!!!
Just discovered this and I'm in awe of the talent displayed. I grew up listening to all of these songs and I'm so happy that you did this.
Hip hop orchestra composer is something from a dream its great that it came true for someone!!!! Love it!!!!
I'm proud of you, respect for Radzimir Polish composer. Jestem bardzo dumny ze mamy tak utalentowanego kompozytora a takze z polaczenia orkiestry z hip-hopem-masakra -dziękuję Ci i zycze sukcesow. Pozdrawiam
So proud that he's from Poland (and from my city!) :) Amazing man!
This is definitely one of the reasons i've gotten into rap culture. The fact that the beauty of rap can be captured even in an orchestra.
I love this so much. I love the sounds of an orchestra, nothing can beat it for me.
Omg this is lit. Wish there was an album of complete songs.
I would buy and listen daily.
If I have never witnessed magic 🪄…I just did!🖤🪶👑 without a word being spoken, you honored#hip hop in it’s essence and all that it is.!! Thank you! 🙏🏿
I don't listen to hip-hop or rap all that much anymore, but I'm familiar with some of the hit singles he composed and made arrangements for. I must say that I am impressed.

This was freaking amazing!!!! I have no words except PERFECTION. Thanks for paying tribute to black culture JOB WELL DONE!!!!!
Ile razy bym nie oglądał to za każdym razem kręci się łezka w oku.. żałuję że nie mogłem tam być..coś pięknego
Hey Jimek first of all thank you for your great work and the amazing experience we all have listening to this masterpiece! You know we all loved this video,but.... COME ON we're waiting for PART 2!
Rewelacyjny, genialny pomysł!!!! Słucha sie tego z przyjemnością i zaciekawieniem, jaka piosenka będzie następna.
Kurczaki....Chłopie...nigdy nie byłam fanką hip-hopu, no ale w takim wykonaniu...fiu, fiu!!!! GRATKI!! I powiem Ci jeszcze Stary...fajnie, że robisz to, co robisz pod naszą polską banderą!!! Szacuneczek!

This is the most amazing thing ever created. Really can give a new appreciation for both types of music. Brilliant
Great to have so talented & creative People in Poland💪
That was the dopest tribute to hip-hop I have ever heard!! 💯💯💯
Comming back here every year

Ależ to piękne, panie JIMEK!
Jest Pan geniuszem ;) Polska jest dumna!
Magnificent beautiful collision of hip hop and orchestra ❤️❤️❤️❤️

😂
Tak sobie weszłam.
Jak to musiało brzmieć zajebiscie na żywo..
Chętnie bym posłuchał 🤔
Wow! Awesome!
Toż to jest mistrzostwo! Panie Jimek! Jest Pan wielki! ❤️
This is incredible! I wish I could have seen it live.
