This man produced probably the biggest song of 2019 and even broke a record, and this is the first time I'm seeing what this man looks like. We gotta show more producers more love, but it also could be possible that dude doesn't care about being famous.
I personally feel like the biggest takeaway from this is that small rappers and small producers should work together to create. Too many producers are trying to get famous rappers on their beats. And too many rappers trying to impress other famous artists or producers. Work together when you are small and make that come up together!
Yoni Eisen I agree with you, people don’t know that how easy it is to make this song, I’m a producer my self and I’m telling you, people don’t know what the difference is between good producers and crap producers. Plus he only used 4 tracks to make this song🤣😂
man, this was mad relatable. idk how many beats i have on my hard drive that i dont like the hihats, etc.... sometimes you just gotta put it online. salute to KIO!
alot of hit song stories are crazy, Eminem and Dr. Dre made "My name is" the first few days they met eachother, Post Malones post "White Iverson" thinking it was just another typical song, Lil Pumps "Gucci gang"
I'm pretty sure lil nas x is gonna win a Grammy for the biggest song ever if so even if he doesnt get 1 he will have the claim to making grammy winning song
Lil Nas X bought the beat for $30 and Young Kio wont make any money out of the real song so he wont be rich for ever except if he keeps making beats like this.
Vegeta is My dad just because you have had some exposure doesn’t mean that’s the same for everyone, there will always be loads of talented unnoticed producers
That's quite common while producing actually. Of course you will always be more critical of your own work than others. Also, it's hard to imagine what a track will sound like when someone is rapping over it, so there's that as well.
It all started from this beat. Launched two careers and resurrected another. We're all just one beat or mention away from living out our dreams and desires. Never quit.
It broke the Streaming Record that was held by Drake & It also broke Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men and Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee & Justin Bieber record for most weeks at #1
@@ashiebliss3200 actually the producer is the key for a song, so stfu :) because you wouldn't listen to most music nowadays if that wasnt for the producer
yes its an incredible story. It really shows the talent of Trent Reznor (composer of the song). Who would of thought adding programmed drums to an existing song would be considered a goal for some people.
Rene Elizarraras make a beat for a grammy winning hit that was number one on the billboard 100 for the longest amount of time in history and the fastest song to hit diamond and then you can dog on him.
@@eshryo the grammy's are a joke and I'm just saying I know many producer who aren't just a "beat maker". These beat makers are no where near as talented as other musicians out today. All beat makers do is crack fruity loops, loop a melody that somebody else wrote (since you aren't talented enough to compose) and then add a trap beat. That's not a producer. Watch Trent Reznor, Scott scorch, Ludwig Goransson, or Alex turner. Those guys are unique
10th Ite also if you’re going to basically cover a song’s instrumentals, add your own flair to it... maybe add different instruments not just add the “sample” (aka original song) to FL studio and throw a trap beat on top.
The fact that it's a NIN sample made me respect this song despite how overhyped. Check out YoungKio on the ProducerGrind podcast if anyone wants to hear more in depth, seems like a real humble dude.
@@tecashi3581 I know its been 2 years, but the song Kio sampled was 34 Ghosts IV from the album Ghosts I-IV. Every song from the album is completely free to use, no contacting needed
@@dreambeatz3797 the only thing is this guy isn't even a producer, he's a beat maker. All he did was add midi drums to an existing song. Shifting the pitch to the original song and programming a trap beat doesn't make you a producer.
Rene Elizarraras but it still takes a-lot of time and effort not to mention hard work just as it would take a producer. being one or the other doesn't make you better its the idea and creativity in mind.
@@9thflavah Songs still go popular without drums. Listen to some freestyles over a guitar, or a freestyle over the ukulele, for example Whoopty or Rapstar.
Crazy how this guy went from basically unknown to producing the longest #1 hit in basically no time. Very inspiring as a unknown Dutch producer myself. Nederlandse producers wya??
I love the Deconstructed series of videos, always great to see all the elements in the instrumental and to see how creative the producer is. I also produce some beats here and there, and I can definitely understand why he wanted to remove the beat because of the high-hats at one point, because I'm sure he thought they were very catchy and unique when he first made them, but after hearing the beat over and over, he began thinking that they either stand out too much, or he began feeling annoyed by the sound in general, which is a common thing to happen when you hear the same beat over and over while trying to add new elements to it, but like he said, its good that he decided to go with it anyway. And I actually hadn't heard the percussion sound at 4:06 while listening to the song until this video, so now my mind will always pay attention to that sound when I listen to the song since I love being able to hear hidden or less prominent sounds in an instrumental, so I guess thanks for that Genius! But jokes aside, another great video in the series from you guys and a huge congratulations to YoungKio for becoming a part of music history :)
First time exploring Lil Nas X's hit song, and I gotta say the credit goes to all 3 of them. Trent is a musical genius but he confines himself. Kio really is the star here, and well deserved. He took Trent's genius music and translated it entirely into a different sound (modern beat). Lil Nas X is as equal a genius for recognizing, implementing, and lyrically making it come alive. Seriously impressed. Well deserved accolades to all 3 of you. Btw I am 54, white, and prefer Trent's music.
if the producer was ever given the respect or exposure they deserved then maybe nine inch nails would be more recognized but nobody ever cares abt the producer
That's what's wrong with music industry as it ain't the same no more as today's quality of music has went way down hill. There are more Programmers these days than great Record Producer's, that's why today's music sound like what we hear today, mumble rap and generic trap beats. A real Producer has a great ear, and knows what sounds best that has a vision for the song, that oversees the entire production of a song to its final mix stage. A Producer is like a director in a movie as they help the Artist deliver the right engery and performance. Today, the is no guiance or input from a real Producer in the studio with an Artist. We need real Record Producer's like Pharrell. DRE, Timbo, Rodney Jerkins and Scott Storch not programmers that's produced quality hit records.
Bruh all u people hating on sampling, welcome to hiphop lol it’s been like this since the origins of hiphop in the late 70s, ain’t nothing new😂quit hating on the dude.
@@flipfloppro1 the alread changed it nationaly but some regions in the netherlands where only racist white people live they havent changed it yet but it will, i think
I'm a producer myself. I don't think producers are getting enough love when they are the ones who create the beat. If it wasn't for producers, rap wouldn't be as big as it is now.
This man produced probably the biggest song of 2019 and even broke a record, and this is the first time I'm seeing what this man looks like. We gotta show more producers more love, but it also could be possible that dude doesn't care about being famous.

True
Facts
Thats what im doing right now and ive been reaching out to smaller artists and i got somebody who wanted to buy my beats for first time!
Yup ,
Like if nas bought the exclusive beat for like $200
He wouldn’t make shit out of it .
I really hope he did make some bread or got a cut %
He needs more recognition. He’s a DIAMOND producer just from one beat he thought was a throwaway. Anything is possible
He’s a cool guy but all he did was slap drums over a slightly cut up sample that nine inch nails made
@@musiew683 don't discredit producers, they're very valuable, if not moreso than the rapper(s) on the track
Logan Holbrook I don’t discredit it, I’ve been producing myself for years but putting 808s and a drum kit over four chords is slight work
Yoni Eisen okay but do you have a DAIMOND record. No

True bro 😂 but as a producer it's not easy and you make so many beats you forget to appreciate some because you're used to your own sound
That's quite common while producing actually. Of course you will always be more critical of your own work than others. Also, it's hard to imagine what a track will sound like when someone is rapping over it, so there's that as well.
