Sample Breakdown: Mobb Deep - Shook Ones Pt II

the herbie hancock sample is actually unbelievable. Sounds so weird when it's slowed down, then it's slowed down even more.

To the point that the ultra-slowed version matches the same triplet beat from the original slowed version. Absolute masterpiece

Mobb deep shook the rap industry with this beat (no pun intended). RIP Prodigy 🙏

That is absolutely phenomenal

Talent for reals

Мурашки…..Один из величайших битов в историй

Beautiful! 🖤🎵

Una joya 💎

One the most legendary beat of all time

NOW EVERYBODY FROM THE 313 PUTCHA MOTHAFUCKIN HANDS UP AND FOLLOW ME

A good friend of mine send me this video because he Is trying to sample a song but watching this makes me consider that appreciate all the hard work that people have to do to layer tracks and other. This song was 1995 was released not sure when they started to use digital gear in recording studios but this album was probably made using analogue gear. Using a 24 track reel to reel takes more than skill. I just love the work that goes into making songs even thought I don't like this type of music you still have to appreciate the effort that goes into songs.

And the BASS ? Everyone forget about it. .... Never ever found.... Still a complete mystery

STILL MISS One SAMPLE Here !!!! The BASS Loop ! White Sharkie ! Nobody knows what is it... Do you ?

Havoc Is a Genius

I was today years old when I realized it's the same sample but stretched out from the Jessica song.

😮

Dope

this beat gives me chills.

What i love about this flip is how perfectly the rhythm of that slowed 6/8? piano sample works with the 4/4 beat when played at 2 completely different tempos, it just naturally falls into place with the right intervals. its amazing how the notes still end up in the same key too. and the craziest part is that its not even that complicated of a flip technically speaking, music is just mathematical like that

insane!!!!!!!

Creativity is out of this world

all that made on keybord with floppy drive input. W0W

This was executed with almost godlike precision by the original. Damnnn

bro that literally goosebumps

Noooo, it started from a stove 😂

Amazing breakdown!

i always thought the piano sample was a guitar for some reason

This is one of the best videos ive ever seen

❤

Bro that piano sampling is RIDICOLOUS

Goosebumps when that piano sample is slowed...

The greatest hip hop beat of all time in my opinion

Just ingenious sample flipping right there.

This seems like a random sample flip, but it's really just B minor into C minor flat 5 over and over again. It's actually CmFlat5/Fsharp. I doubt Havoc knew what he did theoretically. He just did what sounded right to him. Very interesting. The last part of the slower sample starts the C arpeggio into the CmFlat 5. Also the whole song is in the Key of B flat minor I think

i get goosebumps everytime i watch this video

I just discovered this account and it’s amazing!!!

As an on/off again golden era bedroom producer from New zealand born in the 80s, hearing this song on a local hip hop show here in the 90s for the first time(pre Napster days lol) i knew they were hungrier after the not so good run with their previous album, havoc really killed it with this one

So simple 🫶

genius

Damn i thought Hav sampled the piano note for note but he performed open heart surgery on that sample! Shheeeesh!

Excellent

Masterpiece ❤

Masterclass!

This is so F-ing cool!

Saw some zillenials saying some asap rocky song with a flute was the hardest sample flip ever had to come here for a palette cleanse.

I can’t believe Mariah turned this into a ballad

Omggggg😮

One of the best beats of all time, if not the best.

Please do Canibus - Master Thesis, it only samples one song but it’s crazy good

Oiiiiiiii
