Honestly this is the best ON THE SPOT I have seen thus far. Truly talented producer and emcee. I appreciate that Focus explained his reasons for using or not using specific samples or sounds for his style of production. This felt like the most honest OTS yet. And Mic Sic is one of the ills emcees I've heard in a while. Kudos to them both!
The lyrics are the realest ive heard in a while. plus that beat really hits u in the feels.. Cant wait for the full song to drop. keep making songs like this please.
This is by far one of the best On the Spot videos I've seen. Smooth rhythm with deep lyrical content. This is the type of hip-hop music that needs to be carried consistently these days. Music like this is what keeps me motivated to keep going with my music. God bless!
@@rome368 I was raised in noke.. 540.. but I currently reside in Lincoln, Nebraska.. it's not too bad here.. we still able to move but only essential business open
@@BeatButler i feel you stay safe over there. I am about 20 mins from Richmond myself business is still open but it is relatively safe, I think anyway. Had a family member that had to be tested for that mess. Quarantine day is over Saturday 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 that will be my 14th day from contact with him.
Focus is just in a league of his own, truly a beast and most people don't know that he's the ghost producer behind a bunch of Dre's classics. One of the best producers of all time in my opinion. They lyrics were so dope and deep, music we can all relate to, that's what's missing from the game.
Focus!!!! you the man i still remember being in studio with you and my brother-n-law- Gromyko collins!!! i still have some of your old tracks you set us to write to. good to see you doing ya thang in a BIGG way!!!
TheCaptainSpeaks Ghost beat maker? Strange that Focus still Works with dre and only speaks good about him and says that dre is his Mentor. People Who have no clue about production love to spread shit about dre.
sabre well I guess thats what youd call him if dre was his superior. scott storch, eminem, taz arnold, mel-man, dj quik have all I guess "ghost-produced" for dre but youre 100% right. theres a reason dre is called a "producer". knowledge of sound and the intricicies of the wavform are dre's specialties. and in my opinion scott storch and focus are the two best beat makers for dre's ear maybe minus Q Tip, FlyLo, Kanye (although Kanye's ghost producer was taz arnold so, idk). but definitely agree with you. people who talk smack about dre are out of their minds mayne
“That’s the homie Shred off the top of the head. Killin rappers... Leavin thoroughbred horse head in they bed” coldest MicXSic freestyle line I eva heard at Apache Cafe here in The ATL while engineering sound for the event. Big love Mike!!!!!!!
5:29 Did he literally have a 16th hat roll as a sample on the C#? I've never got a hat roll sample, like I just rolled a single hat sample. Weird shit but might start making/looking for some.
I'm not usually feeling a lot of these ON THE SPOT videos because of the lack of experimentation but Focus was mad creative on this, and those bars were sick. Mic Sic reminds me a bit of Joell Ortiz. DOPE
F*CK F*CK F*CK F*CK F*CK!!! 😲That is some fire right there! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Focus.... got me rethinking my life right now, and MICXSIC killed it on this beat! 👏👏👏
"You keep bringing up your guns, try raising your child" Thank you sir!
You're welcome!
great verses man
it's a twist to a jay line, "don't have a son, but i know how to raise a gun"
didn't expect this one to be that DOPE!

I have that same drum break, but the way Amond beefed it up though....Yes! Dope beat and flow.

Stay sharp bro! Salute
I respect this reply. 100%.
Jauntí exactly 😌
Mike Sick Always!
Jeff Leon Appreciate it, brother!
I grew up with Focus, in Stamford, CT. He and I influenced mad heads. Him blowing up was inevitable; he was already a marvel in High School.
respect
Bitch get off his nuts
😂😂😂😷

@Focus & MICXSIC...Amazing teamwork. Great content, production & final outcome. Thankyou for this 1.

Was feeling the first mark around bass line the most man ! But props to him I thought it wasn't going to be good the first 2 minutes of watching
"you keep bringing up your gun, try raising your child."
BRUHHHH
Focus!!!! you the man i still remember being in studio with you and my brother-n-law- Gromyko collins!!! i still have some of your old tracks you set us to write to. good to see you doing ya thang in a BIGG way!!!
Thought it was gonna be Sounwave.
Or at least any TDE in-house producer.
Solo TeV Right😒
Solo TeV Click bait. 😒
Solo TeV Focus was Dre's ghost beat maker at Aftermath for years though. He got more clout than any kendrick producer...

5:29 Did he literally have a 16th hat roll as a sample on the C#? I've never got a hat roll sample, like I just rolled a single hat sample. Weird shit but might start making/looking for some.

I'm not usually feeling a lot of these ON THE SPOT videos because of the lack of experimentation but Focus was mad creative on this, and those bars were sick. Mic Sic reminds me a bit of Joell Ortiz.
