Kaytranada: How His Music Went From His Basement To Dance Floors Around The World | The Culture

[@deepfault]

I saw Kaytranada way back in 2014. By far one of the dopest shows ever honestly. His album 99.9% IS WAY AHEAD OF ITS TIME.

[@MischiefMemoirs]

Kaytranada is the future.

[@EdibleEthnos]

Mischief Memoirs your channel is the future! Dope concert vlogs. I had to subscribe.

[@rashaunaytes2013]

[@Jay-ue2ic]

and the present.

[@murberec42]

Mischief Memoirs he’s this generations Dilla

[@tycrowther544]

Discovered his work a couple months ago, a big leap out of my normal listening, I simply can not get enough. 99.9% is some of the best work I’ve ever heard. What an album, what a dude, what a fucking genius

[@JoyChristos]

“If you feel like you’re doing your thang, don’t let nobody talk down on you. If you feel driven in your heart & you really love what you do, go for it! Deep down in your heart, you know what you want. You gotta be able to take risks in life. DO OR DIE. What else will you be? Do what you love.” - Paraphrasing Kartranada 💛

[@yeazily9053]

just seen him live for the first time 3 days ago, been a fan forever but it really unlocked a new greater appreciation for him.

[@rjgthuro]

He's the second coming of the Neptunes'. When he popped off it was incredible, now he is just as good working with the majors

[@tyharris3263]

musically kaytra has been far past the neptunes for quite some time tbh

[@rjgthuro]

Ty Harris I would disagree but he has incredible range of production this "early" in his career.

[@StandProudGojo]

He mad underrated

[@navigatingmadness180]

How? His album won the Polaris prize.....Everyone in the know knows who Kay is

[@lonelykid7691]

He's not underrated lol, he's been around man.

[@waxmaster-c]

Not at all.

[@keithprice7119]

On almost every song/album by any artist there's a comment about how underrated they are.

[@dondiego2850]

Just because hes an amazing producer doesnt mean he is underrated

[@mtilus]

He’s so cute! Love that he’s so passionate about music. Representing Haiti! 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹

[@sauceydesigns]

I listen to Kaytranada every time I'm planning a new project. Those beats get my brain movin!!!

[@groovekiller]

I love how his family totally support him. That's beatiful to see!

[@user-xx3uz9pu4u]

Kaytranada Sango & Sam Gellaitry are the holy trinity of this shit

[@QMoore]

Remember hearing his work since the MySpace days, this dude is truly in another realm with his music.

[@teammmx]

He's cool, I didn't know him until now. His new album, Bubba, is pretty damn good. Now I have to listen to 99.9%

[@stefanypuebla]

Here after seeing him live 2 days ago, still cant wrap my head around what he brings to the table. Never in my life have I enjoyed a concert as much as his. He is the future and will continue to do wonders. From underrated to big ups @kaytranada. all love from toronto.

[@pvva8911]

GOATRANADA

[@JaePalm]

My favorite producer right now. I loved the video

[@thatonekidfromafrica6492]

Mystique fuck anime

[@txvx]

My inspiration do music! he is so humble as well. What an amazing human! The end when he talks about not letting anyone stop you or talk down to you had me crying. Such a talented artist!

[@MATZ302]

this is sooo inspiring and amazing, seeing kaytranada slowly coming out of his cocoon and showing more and more of his childhood. the interview is also so well made and filmed thank you complex!

[@dunkkid23]

Jinx stay with the fire content, thanks for this one. Kaytranada is undeniably one of the greats of this generation.

[@ruffiankick]

I met kaytranada way back when we use to be in that crew he spoke of. We use to all send beats back and forth thru KZbin, Bandcamp, SoundCloud. All of that! This dude always been dedicated to his craft. I'm glad to see the homie Kev make it haha Respect!

[@ruffiankick]

Kaelin Ellis was in that crew too

[@josephdunphy7947]

Man this was really well put together

[@avaprod.8622]

one of my favorite producers! really inspires me to develop my own style and find the courage to put myself out there.

[@aporia7222]

kaytranada the goat

[@HelloDapp]

Just found one of my new favorite artists, thanks complex

[@joshuabenjamin7969]

Hello Dapp I knew him before, but glad you discovered him. He's dope af

[@paperchickennuggets9076]

[@meagamontana]

[@Tickopj]

[@neimyx1]

Damn you late to the game fam.

[@ZacharyAghaizu]

Yes kaytranada, you inspired me to get back into music

[@kevcjin]

Kaytranada represents the diversity of Canada

[@gotjuice9]

His housey remixes of Janet and Teedra Moses songs with the filtered bass are what initially made me a fan

[@NAVI-xz2io]

i love his music, big ups.

[@NAVI-xz2io]

Mystique alright np

[@jesus2kool]

So proud of Kaytranada, saw him come up in the last 2 years. Can't wait to see him live at Wynwood iii festival!

[@omarkhan2910]

This is mad, knx next!!

[@Huumf]

Omar Khan doubt he'd do it

[@user-by3hs5te6i]

yea he doesnt talk

[@AlchemyBeats]

he has done interviews but on camera yeah i doubt it

[@Ivo.33]

I'll say this to those who also make music we know what we struggle with, and we know our weaknesses. Once you feel secure in your strengths then focus on the weaknesses, and let's be honest deep down you know what you should be doing. Much love.

[@chuck6354]

Big fan of this mans work. One thing I can definitely relate in Is having different ideas and wanting to Exercise them. In doing it he’s showing different tastes he has in his talent

[@princeok12]

I love when two people I admire sit down and have a conversation. The universe at work.

[@UrbanNoizeMusic]

The dad with the vinyl, cassette and amplifier set for music lol. This reminds me of quite a few haitian dads who kept the party going lol. Kaytranada hit on the head.

[@XBR4Da]

I love Kaytranada. His music got me interested in producing. Thanks for making this Complex

[@Jay-ue2ic]

Look at Jersey Jinx doing real journalism for a change. #WeSeeYaFam

[@shewantstogroove]

His music is so fun, so interesting, so well rounded. He has got that "it" factor for sure. 99.9% is my favourite album from at least the past year or two. So good cover to cover.

[@jeronmurray]

Drive me Crazy. Great song!

[@natashanate7439]

I was literally listening to a Kaytranada remix when I saw this video. I screamed! I am happy!

[@nikitah-wav]

Great artist. Great journalist. Two GOATs

[@KingRegis_]

[@brookewashington498]

[@conducttracks]

Dang Complex! This is like the freshest '60 Minutes' segment :) Great interview and production all around!

[@MitEast1]

Kaytranada is on a different planet amongst other producers. Shouts to Jinx, been great this Culture series.

[@chrisdesante1068]

Kay is actually so dope. He has produced some crazy rap queb songs and literally can turn anything to gold.

[@edgomez8270]

It made me happy to think the guy his family was cheering for won a Grammy 4 years later.

[@TaoNaomi]

Thank you for this video, he is one of my favorite producers/dj/artist

[@Dondiggler1]

[@BRod-un4yy]

I mad remember downloading the kaytraTODO EP years ago and falling in love with his music. "All We Do - helped me discover JSMN early on also, and showed the diversity with Kays beats. AND then, ending the project with "Holy Hole Inna Donut" FUCK! That track gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. I'm glad there's a growing base for Kaytra, Man's a musical force.
