During the intro to Amsterdam, the background track is Ramses Shaffy - Hallelujah Amsterdam. Al was already big on you but for implementing this track, you are a LEGEND. Ramses sadly passed away 15 years ago and will forever be considered a legendary Amsterdam chansonnier
Nice to spot myself in the crowd there. Your performance was insane bro🔥 That transition from fear > we cry together blew my and everyone’s mind and you know it💯
ALC digging & listening "Trois Vieux Papis" by french singer Richard Gotainer, the record he nicknamed Sad Clown Music, priceless 😂😂 Big Up from France
Was blessed to visit Amsterdam a few times in my travels. Fun times and GREAT people. Rotterdam, Tilburg, Utrecht and Den Haag. I can see why Al loves this place. It always seemed to have had a great vibe and was a really special place in the 90's and early -later 2000's when I visited. If you know, you know 💯
17:59 that guy has one of those graffiti quotes that can be seen all over Amsterdam in different locations, a different quote every time, I never knew who did those. Cool artwork to have in your living room.
Its crazy when I was younger and first started listening to underground hip hop I could have never imagined how big Al would become. This vlog is so good. Glad to get a bit more insight into the inner workings of a sound scientist's mind.
Not to be a dick, but Al has produced some of the biggest names in HipHop. Not to mention Dilated Peoples. They blew up, every whit kid w a backpack and a skateboard was listening to them.
@@evythefish21You’re right, he was producing for big names out the gate. He started venturing into producing for more underground artists over time. Kind of the opposite trajectory that this comment described, but I agree that there was a lot we couldn’t have seen coming. It seemed like he’d reached a certain peak in like ‘04, and I wouldn’t have guessed that some of his best music was still coming like 10-20 years later
I love this type of content and also Alc is living the life of a hip hop star for real! ima keep pushing for this we all can have it if we put in the work and hours
Everytime that I'm having a bad day at the office with the pen game I watch people like Alchemist and the pen starts to flame. God bless you bro. These flowers I'm sending ain't exactly tulips from Amsterdam just a simple poem to say a big thankyou man.
You can see the inspiration for his incredible Beats Alchemist is all over the Map it's a feel it's what you see that creates Fire from one of the greatest Beat makers EVER he really strikes me as a director of Films peace to the GOD AL
Anthony Bourdain is smiling down on you, you tireless genius. The way you relate the greatness of the art reminds me of my first hip hop show... Common Sense as he was called at the time in a small Northern New England club where an entire live band supported him, after The X-ecutioners then Rahzel got the crowd pretty warmed up. When he spit Hunger it was like time stopped or something. Which is why we can forever suffer no whack MC's. Amen.
Al is the hip hop Anthony Bourdain. Travelling the world, blessing us with his art while appreciating the fine offerings these different places have to offer. Stopping to take in his surroundings and appreciating the significance of everywhere he goes. Keep being you Uncle Al
Watching and being a part of Al’s whole Evolution as it also coincidentally was the soundtrack to my own evolution is no joke one of the most amazing parts of my 50 year old life. You wouldn’t believe me if I told ya. Our fuckeen boy Al! Thank you man thank you.

Dope ass fuck to see him perform for a sold out show and then turn around and walk amongst the people unbothered.
And that is exactly why eminem hates his fame.
Wow thats so cool, it changed the way i am experiencing and looking at the world
i met him in amsterdam while i was going to work indeed! crazy
Yeah but a sold out show in a small venue, is much different to a stadium. He's not a household name yet. Still underground
@@ggmbeats6133 Same here lol. The weekend after Pride is when he filmed this I believe
alchemist is the best producer ever 🫡🫡
Yea he's not beating preemo
he is beating in relevancy though@@leod8489
@@leod8489 he surpassed him. Torch was passed and he’s carrying on tradition.
Body of work keeps building
I been yelling this from the mountain tops for years now

got my name thanks to him, Sammy
I put the track in there but to be honest I just thought it was a dope record didn’t really know the history or anything lol
This is so fkn sick, Alc. Can't wait to get more of these VLOG style edits from ya.
It is so fire. Fuk that is delicious spin off.
Being overseas is a whole different vibe when your mind is wide open 💯
This was great to watch, even as a Dutch person. Feels like seeing your own country through some fresh eyes. And you're a chill dude man
Samesame it's fun to see
He was completely on point when mentioning Patta being the first on that street
Nice to spot myself in the crowd there. Your performance was insane bro🔥 That transition from fear > we cry together blew my and everyone’s mind and you know it💯
Wish I could of been their to listen to that mix 😮
About to fly to Amsterdam for the first time in a couple hours and this pops up. Amazing!
Go to ‘Van dobbe’ trust me
Katsu was the best coffee shop to chill, Flying Dutchman to drink at.
Wine wise and eats go to Bar Pif, Alex & Pinard.
How was the trip my G?
seriously hope you put out more episodes of this shit. youtube has been letting me down for new stuff these days!
man i hope you get well soon, yt shouldn't do a dude like that

speaking as a Dutchy, love that you used Ramses Shaffy in the intro. In our family we call him the greatest Dutch artist of all time
Didn’t even know how much I needed this at this very moment in time…this is special…I pray you make more of these when you can Lord Alc
Always nice to watch FTD from years back on repeat, and then being refreshed with some new Alc behind the scenes content
Honestly wasn't expecting much with this video, but not only did I finish it but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Can't wait for more!
I love this type of content and also Alc is living the life of a hip hop star for real! ima keep pushing for this we all can have it if we put in the work and hours
