@zugootsprevasio6595 That's technically ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE. Black Americans have a distinctively unique culture. There was an ETHNO GENESIS, in which Black Americans have created a culture that has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Africa. We've been on this soil documented at least since the 1500s. We also have aboriginal heritage that ties us to this land. We are not AFRICAN by any sense of the word. Black Americans have more of a cultural continuity than Africa because Africa was COLINZED, and the countries were named by White Europeans during the 1800s in the BERLIN CONFERENCE. LOOK THAT UP, MR AFRICA. The creator of Afro beats "Fela Cuti" had to come to Black Americans to find the meaning of Black Pride and to get inspiration from Jazz and the other genres created by Black Americans. Don't EVER give our credit to Africa. We are CULTURALLY LIGHT YEARS advanced than Africa. We've got Gospel, Soul, R&B, Funk, Jazz, Disco, House, Techno, Hip-hop etc. All born from the LEGACY OF AMERICAN SLAVERY. It has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Africa. Otherwise, they would have had those genres first. But they DIDN'T.
Man it don’t matter as long as you’re capable of making music drums and melody on your own without others help. We evolve so we not be playing some keyboard to make modern music.
He was 20-30 years advanced. Do your history on him. That man is a staple for Southern rap at first when he came out I didn’t respect him at all but after a few more listens to him back in 2010 & 2011 I became hooked and a f’kin’ fan. We can’t forget the man behind the musical beats and anthems Zaytoven! 🫡💯
As a father who is an artist, producer, engineer, and sound designer i felt like I needed to see this. Its like God sent me here. I love his mentality and work ethic. I'm glad he plays instruments instead of just clicking and pasting. I play the piano as well and am getting better as you read this. Zay is a true inspiration to me and I'm wishing him and his family blessings. Hope we all win!
zaytoven is a good dude man. he reached out to one of my home boys thats a local artist trying to make his way up. he dropped a comment on his page bigging him up and pretty much stamping approval. that was very kind of him.
Huge blessup to my guy Zay!!! I've watched all of his past production vids as he dropped them. I'd have to say most people don't understand that Zaytoven is a Musician first Producer second, nor identify that his skillset is a way of life. It is easy to see that he is blessed with the gift of song, easily seen in the church session. As a former musician (Trumpet, French Horn, Mellophone, Keys) I appreciate watching Zaytoven in his creative space build the track from scratch. His unique sound is something that most producers aspire to obtain. Much love and blessings to Zaytoven. Keep them bangers coming my guy. Richmond VA- Ret. Army
I grew up Around Music. and no one played PIANO or SYNTHS... so I picked up the Piano and Keyboard. out of like wanting to be apart of it "the music", and be able to do something no one else was doing. everyone had there lane already around me, also why i started mixing and Recording. None of my friends did that, but they all played music.
This shit is classic! 9029 Studios in was a warehouse in Oakland. which house multiple artist for over 20 years. My pops was there since 1996 when Green Day was there getting there name popping. Fast forward to the early 2000's Jacka, Husalah, FedX was in the building, J Stalin, Mistah Fab, Keak Da Sneak, Mac Dre, you name it everybody used to come through. JT The Bigga Figga was there and his studio was across from ours. I walked into his studio to see what was shaking and saw Zaytoveen in there making a beat on a MPC. You could tell he was fresh in it. Now look a him. An OG in the game. Lesson is stay humble.
Watching Zay react to Milye!!! To see a legend hear the next wave for 3 seconds and say "yeah that's it", that's affirming right there, seems like such a dope dude
big ups to zay, got to show our culture and our world to ‘em. show them that no matter how big we get or how big our works become, community and culture is our source, it’s real for us and it can never be faked. ✊🏾
This is Zay! He has always been involved in church! I remember seeing him @ Pastor Meredith Church on the keys. Also @ the Barbershop @ Stonecrest Mall.
Zaytovwn is one of the few rap producers to make the organ & piano cool on tracks. Now it’s producers incorporating 🎸 & other instruments on their tracks. Plus he’s from the bay
Good stuff ZAYTOVEN FROM BLAQTHOVEN …I’m happy to see this your blessed by God and you still play in church ..that’s the blessings ..can’t wait to work with you …💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
That "gunna" amazing guy knows the truth - He knows he needs to just be spiritually be intune with himself (and those drums do exactly that). He is so free that he even uses the B-word in church - showing that there are no laws but the ones we make. The beauty about life is that its actually meaningless until you come in with your interpretention of how what you have experienced feel - without us feeling, this whole thing would be meaningless - we here for emotions and to be loving towards every aspect of the experiences we are blessed to have here on Earth.
Im a a producer n just learning how to slowly play piano i salute zay its more than just pushing in buttons i understand what he meant but i love my fruity loops cant lie
3 minutes in and it's already a classic Zaytoven video (boy that percussion pattern he just did!?). All I need to hear is one of his homies saying "MADE from scratch 😎" IYKYK
Glad to see producers show that they can actually play instruments. The Daw is just a canvas
Right
humbling
Facts
Yeah it's refreshing but also doesn't matter. A hit is a hit
@@cordster515 actually it does. Contrary to your belief, not everyone cares about "making a hit" and people actually do care about musicianship and musicality
Gospel is at the ROOT of the Black American musical tree.
Well technically the Roots of Black Music come from Africa. Gospel is more of an influence.

Its refreshing to see a producer actually playing the piano making his beats not just point and clicking the whole beat.
Before a.i came out was , real muscians
He doesn’t even play crazy on his beats… In this video he plays more than he does on 90 % of his beats
Man it don’t matter as long as you’re capable of making music drums and melody on your own without others help. We evolve so we not be playing some keyboard to make modern music.
@@thesecond1a that is true bro very true, it just some people who use A.I lack soul in they beats which is why all beats are kinda wack these days.
@@1babyza wdym by using Ai?
future's sound is so iconic, that folder was from 2018, song still sounds refreshing in 2024

Big fan of Zaytoven and love to see he's a family man
Producers like zaytoven are generational, these guys have their own sound, when you hear it you know it’s them.
I can't tell you how cool this is to just see a real day in the life of someone with real talent. All love, Zaytoven is a legend!
that future joint is craawaaaazy!!!! deserves a release
I think Tray songz got that beat
@@Allanmjjdid he snapped on it if he didn’t nah when we want Pluto joint bro al my respect for trigga of course

Never gets old watching someone live in there gift and create with God gifted talent 🙇🏾♂️
growing up in church playing, i can relate to this!🔥👌
Same
Zay almost his own genre and when he says you can’t tell producers apart makes u thinkkk
Nice introduction of a character at 0:28 as he enters the church, throws up a hand sign and says "bitch"

One of my fav producers in the game
hes such an inspiring guy
4:17 that shit would bring tears to my eyes being able to witness that in person
BESTMODE 3
I already started singin, came up wit a hook and all🤦🏽♂️😂
Man leading off from the church scene tells me all I need to know is about Zay. A man who walks what he talks!!! I’m a fan!!!
I grew up Around Music. and no one played PIANO or SYNTHS...
so I picked up the Piano and Keyboard. out of like wanting to be apart of it "the music", and be able to do something no one else was doing.
everyone had there lane already around me, also why i started mixing and Recording. None of my friends did that, but they all played music.
Naw bruh that Peacoat segment is actually insane. Hearing the instrumental and getting some super important game - history !!!!
Beast mode 2 so underrated
Zay is one of the most unique producers. Even on Future’s latest song Ain’t No Love I immediately knew Zay produced it bc his sound is unique.
