[@Btone33]

Rock on Grap!

[@shaunjaymagic]

I freestyle to your beats almost every day while I’m riding around in my car running errands 😂 I just can’t help it bro they’re so good I don’t want to stop. Love the low key vibe it creates. Big fan of your work.

[@NiElsir]

So glad this video still exists on here - been watching this yearly since it first came out. So good

[@Ed-hs8td]

Some of these beats are on his new album "Sounds of Mount Vernon" Really dope. U guys should check it out!

[@keeptrxllbeats4201]

Whats the 1st beat

[@Cjga1114]

It's not only the sp, grap is a New Yorker he's got the hip hop gene!

[@saadaanafghan5164]

damn that last beat is a fkn GEM!!!!!!! 7:50

[@thaunknownn]

It is a GEM...💎

[@tizosh7]

The last beat is FIRE...

[@beetz15s]

[@WorldwideJamal]

[@Dthebeatsmith]

I wish the tracks from both part 1 and 2 of these videos were released as an instrumental compilation. IMO these are some of the finest Hip Hop beats ever made!

[@tinktwiceman]

Grap & Pete.. Soul Brothers

[@amontri3246]

dammmmm with10 seconds of sample time he made these and only save them on old 3.5 disks I know people that have tons of gigabytes and lots of software but will never make anything close to this smh

[@damienblast4635]

we all beat makers know that those 10 sec made it more creative. but it's all in your self to make it happen. who say u can't max your self out in the newer mp with 10-15 sec. who cares we got 32mb.#JUST DO IT.

[@DeepSociety]

I have tons of software and gigabytes of libraries, but always just use the SP and vinly. Its just a lot more fun. I love the SP like my baby. Someone wanted to buy it from me for almost 5000, i said no.

[@gorillabraudcast474]

I totally agree. Once u learn to chop and pitch down samples u realize 10seconds is plenty time for a rap beat. Thanks for the videos man

[@forevershampoo]

Yea that’s a trip huh

[@SkateSka]

True, true, if someone's good they'll even get the sound right somehow with a children's Casio synth, 99.9% is the operator.

[@mikeseager6817]

I love going on dilla vids, grap vids, mf doom, etc because everyone on those vids is just passionate about music and hip hop and theres positive energy! no hate like on every other damn genre on any youtube vid

[@bendervelosoc.r.f8456]

that's true... 😂😂😂

[@daveacosta4166]

Mike Seager fucken hippie

[@kingsteelo629]

Dave Acosta How is he a hippie? Baseless claims.

[@keeptrxllbeats4201]

On me bruh its all love ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@hoodybeatz]

sp1200 will have your drums SLAPPIN

[@lex.cordis]

Granted you know what you're doing!

[@DeepSociety]

Just sample hot enough and dont pitch drums too much in the SP

[@daveacosta4166]

Deep Society fuck off i see you on every 1200 vid like damn

[@Alalu]

Music runs in that family forreal! Big up Pete & Grap!

[@pasxizeis]

I'm still here 8 years later, waiting for the beat at 7:45 to get release :( @GrapLuva

[@rickhazemusic]

its like looking into hip-hops house, if it were an actual person

[@dotConcept]

Oh man, this video still motivates me to hop back on that classic sound.

[@Shahmar]

And 8 years later?

[@Ashcononline]

His beats are way too good to be that humble.. still good to know there are some people out there like that..

[@HotelEdenMusic]

7:48 beat is so strong.

[@beatfanatic9438]

SP for life. From the SP-12, SP1200, SP 202, SP 303, SP 404, SP 404SX, SP 505, SP606, SP555 MPCs are definitely the one for of a more commercial and polished sound. But we all know we fell in love with the beats cause of that grimy and gritty sound and the SP's are the staple for that. MPCs users are jedis and SP users are siths hahaha!!

[@daveacosta4166]

Beat Fanatic hope you know that 12 and 1200 is emu and the other sp you listed are by boss.

[@beatfanatic9438]

Everybody knows that. Im just saying these are the machines I grew up fucking with.

[@daveacosta4166]

Beat Fanatic ohh gotcha

[@lordg3803]

You obviously haven't used an MPC 60, 3000, 2000, or 2000XL. Those machines are GRITTY.

[@DeepSociety]

just copped an sp, after all these years looking at it, wanting it. I absolutely love this machine! the sound is unmatched and the limitations are what makes you think. its beatmaking the "hard way", but its so much fun. sp will never leave me

[@sotirisnikolaidis4835]

I believe its the best video for the sp 1200!! With this video I bought the sp!!!!

[@DjKieLBeats]

Should be called 8 minutes & 29 MORE seconds with Grap Luva. One of my fav. beatmakers...

[@Tyinthemiddle_]

I love seeing people passionate about the process, it Feeds the soul ✊🏾

[@Lux9103]

[@derrickjunkeer]

These beats are incredible, can't for the "jah sounds" instrumental record. This sounds (all of them, part 1 and 2) are like drugs for my soul. I cannot believe these have been collecting dust, but so good to hear something fresh in 2010 that was made in the late 90's. I can't get enough of Grap, Def on the status of the great producers! No question. PEACE Jah Bless

[@LiberatorYourself]

"Beats & Rhymes" immediately reminded me of "What I'm Here 4" Moment Of Truth This video is like the X on the Map!!!

[@dailyhabitz]

Grap Luva a legend!! InI & Soul brother for life!!

[@alee0294]

All these beats are golden

[@gb4double]

I'm sure Pete would say he loves having Grap for a brother, but boy... having Pete Rock as your brother is like having Dilla (shout out to Illa J) or Primo as your brother... Shout to my homies from Mt. Vernon...Moose, Dread, Pop, Shabba...

[@kadarakaa]

[@CranialCRX]

These beats are exactly what I want to hear...... Perfect! Real Hiphop

WTF!!!!!!!!!!! my mind is BLOWN!! Its 930 in the morn and i know its all down hill from here. that vid might be the best part of my week. THANK YOU!!! amazing!!!

[@jamalcampbell774]

Grap, you and Pete should do a whole album like ya'll did the song "Worldwide" to those beats, (one of the best songs on "The Main Ingredient") it would be one of the flyest albums to date. The way ya'll connected on that joint was dope. The beats you got are to the left, and they hit you in the heart, the way Hip Hop shit should. I miss this type a shit.

[@alexmason6191]

Fakin' Jax by INI is another great song recorded by them together

[@210abe]

Solid gold, just like last time. I didn't think I could be more impressed....but I am.

[@94incurabil]

Crazy Nice as always

[@brucemiller3869]

Love that SP sound...one love to Grap..his sound is amazin!!!..Peace!!!

[@marsbars1657]

EXACTLY!!!!!!!

[@elijah7525]

Yo, it's damn near 2020 up in this bitch. The way these labels be dicking brothers with contracts, The Pete Rock Boot Camp, would've been a great franchise!!

[@roy_beat_edits]

grap luva is one of my biggest inspirations.. also the cameraman damu is a hero, I want more of these viddys!

[@Lux9103]

THE LAST BEAT IS GODLY.......

[@JJ305JJ]

Man I really appreciate this video, specially the heartfelt shout out to his pops at end. His beats are mad ill and you can just tell his passion to the craft by listening to him speak. I remember Grap Luva from bumping the INI album, Center of Attention with Pete Rock. Dope, check it out if y'all haven't...

[@MrSP1200]

The drums on these smack so hard!!! ...more great work ..thanks for sharing.

[@alessandromeyer4888]

If only Pete Rock would have continued with Graps style he would still be #1. :-(

[@columbusohio72]

Stop using drugs

[@hicapsplit]
