This guy did.."Say My Name," Bills Bills Bills, the whole Never Say Never Album, He Wasn't Man Enough, Revolution by Kirk Franklin and several other Brandy albums. Let that sink in.
Man listening to this man speak is iconic in itself 4real! Dude been a legend since he was like 16 years old! I'm shocked he has only 2 grammys 4real his resume is impeccable & that's FACTS!!!!
We had the same rule in our house but you could pick the instrument you wanted to play. I urge parents to have their kids learn to play music, it opens your mind to learning and creativity.
Love this man. The work he's done with Brandy and so many others is incredible. He's up there with Timberland and Dallas Austin as one of my favorite producers.
Thank you Vlad! This is great, im from the pleasantville-Atlantic City area and this is super inspiring. Everyone knows about rodney jerkins around jere but to hear his story coming up is great! Good shit man
Take the hint Glad, this "rare" interview is about Darkchild not you. Don't waste time slipping yourself into it. Just ask a question and let him answer......with no interruptions.
Man? I remember hearing about the mock 60 when I wAs coming up producing, now I’m like 5 mpc’s in and have took them apart n upgraded them myself...... that part of the interview really resonated with me, plus the fact I love Rodney’s work....
Damn... Vlad knows people trying to cancel him so he’s dropping these heaters to keep us subscribed. I saw this one and the only thing that popped into my head was “Release the flutes, Guru” 😂
Those b^%$$ cant cancel Vlad!!!!!!!!!!!!! Name one other interviewer of hip-hop who gets these type of guests???? F%$&* Lord Jam and Godfrey. They allowed Dame, Kam, and Royce to get in their ear to only lose
@@GHOST91141 BS!!!!!!!!!!! Rodney Jerkin's true equal is R kelly or JR Rotem. Brian Michael Cox was under Jermaine Dupri for way too long. Most of his hits got JD's name on it.
Artists did other things before the track started too. Remember those "Artist name, track name, record label, year of release. 'Oooooo WEEEE!!!!'" intros that was so popular from the late 90s to the mid 2000s? Lol.
DOPE LEGENDARY PRODUCER THAT ALSO CHANGED THE GAME IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY FOR OUR POP CULTURE AND GENERATION DARKCHILD IS A LIVING LEGEND- LANCE ROMANCE 😊✊😎
Finally I been waitin on this interview salute to Vlad and Darkchild if y’all don’t know darkchild started everything from destiny child to Toni Braxton to Whitney Houston 💯
I knew Darkchild was the GOAT when he made Destiny Child - Cater to You and MJ- You Rock my World. That aint no where near half of the hits he made. A real Producer.
Darkchild was a great R&B producer who I would put a tier below Babyface and Jam & Lewis... Which is crazy because the spectrum of artists that he’s worked with and made hits for is on a level of Babyface while his quality of sound is almost on Jam and Lewis level. Dude was super talented.
Go watch the other platform then, it’s like white folks saying they should not buy tickets or albums from black artist and they should support their own, that’s silly
Jay Boogie Vlad went broke more than once as a part of his story. A nigga ain’t built for them types of losses. Lol But always wanna talk down on Glad.
Dude is smart. Makes endless hits and still kinda stays away from trying attract attention. Also, doesnt work with many Rappers even though he has the sound to do so, but thats another story.
When you heard someone whisper 'Darkchild' as a song was starting, you knew it was gonna be lit.
Pleasantville NJ, I went to school with this guy
Frfr
FACTS!!
No doubt !!!
Right!!!
One of the greatest producers ever. Such a legend
K Jo. I’ve scrolled through a couple hundred of his songs. I didn’t see any of the ones that I remember as stand outs for the styles I like.
Nathan you rock my world isn’t a stand out... ok lol
K Jo. It is. It is. But its not one of my favorites. It’s not as heavy as Michael’s other stuff.
The fact that he only won 2 or 3 Grammys shows you how meaningless these awards are. He should have won 50 by now
Preach! The awards should be 'Darkchild Awards'
Omg I jus commented sort of the same thing! I'm shocked he only has 2 Grammys wit only what they said 9 nominations smdh dudes a legend 4real!
Straight fucking joke. He only has 9 Grammy nominations
I honestly cannot think of a song I heard that dark child whisper and it wasn’t banging
Absolutley one of the best to do it!
He definitely should have more than 2 Grammys. Period.
This is what happens when a black family has STRUCTURE and BOTH parents are present.
Yup. When mom and dad are on the same page and mom allows dad to lead the family like he should you will see positive results.
Yep. Not only did mom step back so dad could lead but Dad was a Good leader
Not always
@@NOCDIB Truly. Everthing else is forcing nature.
@@TriplomatX We understand. He means in general.
What an honor to have this interview thanks guys ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
When a man comes out and says he don’t do many interviews ya best believe he knows what time is! Great interview
Legendary! Producer of some of my favorite songs.💯❤
@Esoterically Doper unsub?? No! I have been seeing comments about ppl unsubbing. I don't know what it's all about
Dark Child = legend
Agreed
This man created the producer/dj tag when he said "Darkchild '99" at the beginning of Destinys Child "Say my name".
DJVlad Troll 💀😂😂😂
nah Trackmasters
Lol me too
@@Bankallday Trackmasters had some great music. Took me back on that one.
One of them

Underrated producer:Responsible for hits people don't even realize....
Chris Johnson don’t think you know what underrated means mate. He’s super rated by the people who know.
Do u know what it means he is kind of underated some people dont even kno who he is hes not normally mentioned with the dres timbos puffs pharells etc
@@chrisjohnson4272 Again, you dont know what underrated means clearly. Maybe you mean popular.. please humble yourself. its okay to be wrong. idiot.
My point is he should be more popular dumb ass
Dont be a internet tough guy punk because in real life i will knock u out!
We had the same rule in our house but you could pick the instrument you wanted to play. I urge parents to have their kids learn to play music, it opens your mind to learning and creativity.
I want a Verzuz with him and Bryan-Michael Cox.
nauticadon 😳😂 False.. Do your research.
Bmc on another level! He dark child got to be named and accolades but bmc got the bangers “we” know
Now see you might be on to something!!! I would love to see that battle.
Love this man. The work he's done with Brandy and so many others is incredible. He's up there with Timberland and Dallas Austin as one of my favorite producers.
Thank you Vlad! This is great, im from the pleasantville-Atlantic City area and this is super inspiring. Everyone knows about rodney jerkins around jere but to hear his story coming up is great! Good shit man
was just listening to rock my world. this man is a legend
The Gina Thompson debut album "Nobody Does It Better" he produced is maybe the most underrated album all time
Yesss thats that south jersey connect lol! G8na straight outta Vineland 609 / 856
Give this man his flowers for Brandys Full Moon n Human album🎼🎶🎵🎙🎙🎙🎙🎙(Dark Child!!)
Rodney did his thing when he did the track INRBIO for Whitney's 4th album *My Love Is Your Love* .
One of the greatest R&B/Pop producers period!
“Did you grow up without a father?”
-Glad
love his joint on the AALIYAH one in a million album and the DARKCHILD remix to one in a million
Take the hint Glad, this "rare" interview is about Darkchild not you. Don't waste time slipping yourself into it. Just ask a question and let him answer......with no interruptions.
@@Blackfeet Facts!
I was waiting for a story with Michael & Whitney and Glad to be like yeah! I was in the studio across the street
This Man created the "Rnb pop" genre I love Rodney Jerkins!
like which song ? :o
...I would credit Motown for doing it first with the Jackson 5 and the Supremes. "R&B pop" started before the 90s
@@sharonjo7630 yea but ur was t the same rnb. Urban pop rnb would be more accurate. Or hip-pop rnb
@@dmetriusmarch...huh?
Michael Jackson questions coming soon
100%
And Brandy
Get it right Vlad. It’s Rodney “Darkchild Na Na” Jerkins
Na Na? Since when? 😕
@@sharonjo7630
Say my name....listen to the beginning of that song
Get it right Robert Lewis. It’s “Darkchild Nine Nine” bc the song came out in 1999
12345 54321 nope. My youthful ears heard what they heard lol
robert lewis lol
Man he got Rodney this bout to be a good interview
Man? I remember hearing about the mock 60 when I wAs coming up producing, now I’m like 5 mpc’s in and have took them apart n upgraded them myself...... that part of the interview really resonated with me, plus the fact I love Rodney’s work....
Darkchild the GOAT. Classics on top of classics for days.
WOW, this man is a LEGEND! Mad respect!
I love DarkChild!! Certified Hitmaker 🔥🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾
Damn... Vlad knows people trying to cancel him so he’s dropping these heaters to keep us subscribed. I saw this one and the only thing that popped into my head was “Release the flutes, Guru” 😂
twenty20inc I like that comment
Those b^%$$ cant cancel Vlad!!!!!!!!!!!!! Name one other interviewer of hip-hop who gets these type of guests???? F%$&* Lord Jam and Godfrey. They allowed Dame, Kam, and Royce to get in their ear to only lose
Vlad is very strategic.
Big facts.
Vlad not worried about who unsubscribes dude is over 4 million people still gone tune in
I remember going crazy when I heard Brandy - Sittin on top of the world feat. Mase . Late 90’s was Lit with hit producers like Rodney 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
WHAT!!!!!!!! DARKchild? im here for this one all day..
Say what u want about Vlad but he interviews the ppl tht never really told their story. This man is a goat producer!! Goat goat!! A different level!!
What’s funny is the comments are fake 😂

Amazing producer for so many artists & big classic hits⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Producers have to be best interviewees they’re like one stop shops
Darkchild, Timbaland, and The Neptunes dominated my life's soundtrack growing up.
We need him verzuz Bryan Michael cox!!!! Vlad please ask him about his verzuz
That would be a good one both of them produced classic songs
@@GHOST91141 BS!!!!!!!!!!! Rodney Jerkin's true equal is R kelly or JR Rotem. Brian Michael Cox was under Jermaine Dupri for way too long. Most of his hits got JD's name on it.
Oh shit.. yo we need that ASAP
@@dianevrules 🧢🧢 bcox got hits you sleep
Vlad coming hard with these interviews like , who’s Godfrey and Lord Jamar 😂🤣😅
Right lol
Lmaoo
💯
As he should
Porn bots approve so it must be true 🤔
These days just about every producer got to say their name on the track before it starts but he was doing that shit in the 90s
Artists did other things before the track started too. Remember those "Artist name, track name, record label, year of release. 'Oooooo WEEEE!!!!'" intros that was so popular from the late 90s to the mid 2000s? Lol.
I've wanted this for sooooo long this gucking dope im gonna watch this like 20 x times
Damn Ray J be everywhere lol
COLUMBIA SC ROCKIN WIT "GLAD" SINCE DAY ONE

LEGENDARY!!! Brandy and DarkChild/Lashawn Daniels for life. 🙏🏾💙💙💙
Yessss.....this gonna be a dopppeeeee interview
Edit: we need more of these types vlad
He only has 2 Grammys? Wow I expected more than that based off his catalogue.
Love that story about his dad getting him the beat machunecthats a father's love
One of the best producers of his era, and I personally feel under rated
DOPE LEGENDARY PRODUCER THAT ALSO CHANGED THE GAME IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY FOR OUR POP CULTURE AND GENERATION DARKCHILD IS A LIVING LEGEND- LANCE ROMANCE 😊✊😎
Nobody ever interviews him. Vlad this is someone you can definitely not mess up becuz he's actually a gem.
His dad snapped out of it. I'm glad he got with his sons dream of making it big🎵🎶🎼🎙🎤🗽🌴✌🏽
Finally I been waitin on this interview salute to Vlad and Darkchild if y’all don’t know darkchild started everything from destiny child to Toni Braxton to Whitney Houston 💯
Darkchild!!! He looks Great! Darkchild ruled the 90s
Youngins be like who did right here? As an OG this are the only videos am here for. Positive vibes
What a legend - behind so many hits
Liked this before I even watched lol. Dark Child was dope.
💕🌹🌹🌹
Dope guest vlad 👌
OMG you actually got with Darkchild!!! Thank you Vlad!
I went to school with this guy, and his family
One of the best producers of our time. Scratch that....EVER!
Y'all remember that interview where Vlad mistakenly called Darkchild "Blackchild" 🤦🏾♀️
What?!
@Diem Golightly lawd, yall act like nobody can make a mistake
I knew Darkchild was the GOAT when he made Destiny Child - Cater to You and MJ- You Rock my World. That aint no where near half of the hits he made. A real Producer.
Creator of real amazing music, you heard his tag and the song was a hit period. If he hasn’t done a verzuz yet he should do one
So inspiring. I like this interview better than ' so how old were when the crack epidemic hit the streeet'.
Darkchild was a great R&B producer who I would put a tier below Babyface and Jam & Lewis... Which is crazy because the spectrum of artists that he’s worked with and made hits for is on a level of Babyface while his quality of sound is almost on Jam and Lewis level. Dude was super talented.
Met him in my hometown at a golf event his son was in, nice dude.
Rodney sounds like a pastor no less than his father being a pastor.
LOCKED IN FOR THIS ONE! Shit! The mufukin mane! 💯💯💯💯💯💯💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🔥
This a legendary producer right here!
VLAD needs to date these events because the guest leaves us hanging. Simple question...What year did this happen approx?
Yo when u heard the dark child whisper u knew that shit was about to bang
I know this dude getting the bag heavy 👏🏾
Darkchild we need a verzuz between you and Baby Dubb or Stevie J. Please and thank you.
Wow I was just thinking about this dude recently. This story should be interesting
Darkchild is a fucking legend all time great musician
Now we talkin 🔥
I swear when VLAD started counting the people he worked with i was jus like 😳😳😳😳!!
Damn our story is kinda the same!!!! But I haven’t made it yet!!!!
Legendary producer in the music industry 💪🔥
I think he’s the first producer to do a beat tag otc. Legendary producer 🔥💯
he was... we talk about that
Ye i think he started that timbo would just hop on the record all together
The first person was actually Teddy Riley
Godfrey disliked this video 27 times 😭😂
MY FAVOURITE PRODUCER OMG
Atlantic City....my 3rd home. Also why ill probably go broke
My man was booming in the early to mid 2000's.
You heard "Dark child" on almost every hit song 😂😂😂
The late 90s
Stop watching this outsider take advantage of black influence
Darkchild he isn’t an outsider
Go watch the other platform then, it’s like white folks saying they should not buy tickets or albums from black artist and they should support their own, that’s silly
omolaso90 you right. I’ve never heard them ever say that. Ever dam
Jay Boogie Vlad went broke more than once as a part of his story. A nigga ain’t built for them types of losses. Lol But always wanna talk down on Glad.
This dude a goat frfr
Dude is smart. Makes endless hits and still kinda stays away from trying attract attention. Also, doesnt work with many Rappers even though he has the sound to do so, but thats another story.
Jesus this guy is blessed
I first thought it was Daz Dillinger 😂😂
Hey, is this C-Bo?
No, its not!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where is part 2?
tomorrow
Instant Classic
who else thought it was 'Dog Child' back in the day?
Lol ye i thought that for a long time felt stupid when some years back i found out it is Darkchild
