Magnifier: Flying Lotus

[@indianplaya2010]

Genius man...taking Dilla's foundation to incredible and unheard heights--creating genres...bravo. I saw FlyLo perform on his birthday at Terminal 5, and I realized that great artists, who dig deep into their own spirituality, who pour their souls into their work, communicate their personality, and in this sense you get to know them in an utterly deep and raw sense. It's been incredible getting to know you Steven, artists like you inspire me. Hopefully my neck muscles don't give out on me!

[@OMAR1992ish]

Dude literally makes me work ten times as hard every time I watch one of these interviews....

[@IntegralProd]

"I'll do some stuff with Odd Future" And so comes Captain Murphy.

[@wowflower]

love hearing him talk about the badu shxt and the kendrick shxt. all that came to be! brainfeeder too took off and continues to be a centerpiece to a lot of my fav artists. love love love it

[@KevTheYoungMusicGeru]

Thinking about the Coltrane lineage it would be interesting to see him collaborate with John Coltrane and Alice Coltrane's son Ravi Coltrane. But Ravi's music and Flying Lotus's music are very different. Most of his fans are probably don't even know about Ravi.

[@GodsTouch12]

one thing i like about this dude is his open mindness to music and tht will get u far

[@MannyBriseno]

Sep of 2008, first time he came to Chi-town, first time I saw him, first time someone on stage asked the crowd for a blunt, and the first time I saw so many hands with blunts charging towards him LOL good times... Loved this guy since he first started with Adult Swim.

[@lcboo9]

Seriously this guy is an idol of mine.... His music is amazing... he has some really fucking great ideas and I honestly wanna do exactly what he does.

[@gasmask2012]

flyo inspires me musically so much. his label too, being on it is my fantasy..my daydream..

[@DonovanSheehan]

flylo makes some true masterpieces man, insane artist, really thankful for his music

[@pmGOdrums]

well i'm an american and he's definitely an idol for me. one of the most inspirational cats out there. eventually this country will get hip and he'll get super huge. i cant wait for the next album.

[@teethofghosts]

yeah. he was also interviewed. that is why he's in the recommended videos. it makes sense, you see.

[@KeenanRuffinEl]

It's Lib's versatility. Lib could make a good instrumental of any genre plus, the samples he uses are so amazing

[@Billyssword]

An amazing artist, thank you google music

[@GhostsOfPlanets]

It's not a remix, it's the outro to 'mmmhmm' on Cosmogramma. Hope that helped! although it is only a 10 second-or so interlude.

[@Toojdwin]

Caravan of Delight is amazing. Can't wait for the new album!

[@MrMISTANOODLES]

Why are people like flylo no american idols? This guy is so creative. He builds the soundtrack of my life in this time and place! peace from the Netherlands.

[@bowtiedon]

Specifically him and Danny Brown would be a really interesting combo. I would love to see what they come up with.

[@primetime2SD]

Yeah, you and kendrick need to do one.

[@DRR4BBIT]

no idea. but now im gonna go listen to it.

[@HellaStupidSeriously]

maggot brain and alice coltrane?

[@henryhill92]

Yeah she had nothing to do with it, weird choice there

[@LijahManelli]

Alice Coltrane's actually his grandaunt.

[@henryhill92]

Lijah Manelli We know, we're questioning her relation to the album Maggot Brain, not to FlyLo himself

[@matthewstedman7883]

+RBRT QDR Someone fucked up.

[@nofeedingthebaboons]

waiting on that album....

[@ziggytrap5022]

Why do people keep bringing up artist who are no were near flying lotus

[@OMAR1992ish]

@DRR4BBITWhat song did he produce for odd future and mellohype?

[@bigben1986]

such a humble guy

[@gooneybird808]

Man every time I think about making music that just fits in I hear words for Steve and it makes me want to be me

[@Xolin11]

Did he produce Couch? Because it sounds so much like Clay.

[@beauevans]

he says he preimering the new album at coachella!! i really wish i could go ); that is gonna be an amazing night. i would kill to see him play a set live

[@bison700]

FlyLo + Shabazz Palaces = a work of genius. DO IT!

[@hiphoplivs]

Madlib is a space cadet he takes shit to a whole new realm of beatastic goodness.

[@hiphoplivs]

I agree, Madlib is on another plateau.

[@bowtiedon]

Question? Is it his solo new project that should be finished by the end of 2011 or is it the Erykah badu calab that will be finished by the end of the year?

[@hbenhail]

Killed it at SONAR Sao Paulo!

[@xgplayer]

search for "between villains"

[@blacksoulgem666]

nobody will evr replicate the greatness

[@87687696]

did he produce for Odd Future or did they just spit on of his beats?

[@TheInfamousAdrian96]

[@Cre8iveStudios]

I would love to see a collab with kendrick in the near future!!!

[@MissUmiLove]

Talented and attractive ;)

[@AlphaTheGamerX]

What Was The Beginning Song When FlyLo Was Jammin?

[@speaks3023]

8 years late but “do the astral plane” 😫

[@sniper9x32]

He pushed it back twice, October now.

[@theoriginalMaxman2]

Who is this guy, what makes him so special, why do we care?

[@davidwave4]

FlyLo and The Weeknd are going to KILL in 2013.

[@KamKomissioner]

flylo produced two of the beats for hodgey's untitled EP and earl sweatshirt has hinted at being in the studio with flylo. and on flying lotus' YT page there's a short clip of him and tyler. whether you like it or not, FlyLo fucks with OF.

[@TheHaitianSensation87]

they came out with a Vik Vaughn and Capt Murphy collab

[@Kriskazam]

I just call FlyLo experimental hip hop, short and sweet

[@slouch186]

holy shit i just realize ive never seen flying lotus's face before cool

[@jarebear909]

aaaaaaay kendrick, danny, and odd future!! those have to happen!

[@TheInfamousAdrian96]

[@altvibr]

[@bobdole8048]

mindfuck. I'm in the crowd at 0:43 just randomly surfing youtube and there I am

[@davidedwards2754]

Have you heard the work he did with MURS?

[@IntuitiveMediums]

[@fantasypgatour]

[@IntegralProd]

FUUUUUCK That bassline on the first song in this video! Soooo dope. Love FlyLo

[@kyletorrzan1437]

3:18 is he talking about Captain Murphy?? 0.0

[@01_001]

Hodgy went over "dirty chopsticks" but it wasnt origionally made for him

[@DRR4BBIT]

you still need permission from the original distributor/creator. Ur right its the same beat but its still produced by him.

[@gasmask2012]

flyo and odd future, would be so dope.

[@kpatel447]

LUV DIS DOE

[@CDGMuzik]

O__O I was looking at the "google music" videos and saw drake and shakira and I'm like "yeah yeah...same old pop stars" Then I saw Flying Lotus i'm like "WHAT?!" I had a heart attack!

[@blancmage31]

who dislikes videos like this? seriously...i just dont get why someone would.

[@dripdave]

this dude is 10 000 x more awesome than oddfuture, mellowhype or jose james. true talent.

[@TheMastahBlastah]

He's Captain Murphy, though.

[@DRR4BBIT]

@OMAR1992ish Hodgy Beats-Lately , lamented. im trying to think of other ones on the spot but i kno he did more sorry im highasphuck right nah

[@NicooDoe]

He produced 2 tracks for Hodgy

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

[@nickmakestunes]

Do The Astral Plane

[@16scott17]

[@jazzismcadence]

i wanna be a producer

[@stickanimator469]

[@Doplarmusic]

Flylo & VOB

[@james_hadley_]

They do different stuff. Comparing them isn't really possible.

[@jazsi_]

Oh shit, a Kendrick Lamar and Shabazz Palaces collab would be dope!

[@RedRam312]

I think they showed it because Funkadelic Parliament was 1 of his influences--@ least thatz what I got from it... Shit Maggotbrain inspires me everytime I hear that shit, lol--peace*

[@KevTheYoungMusicGeru]

For those interested here is an example of Ravi Coltrane's music /watch?v=OdLCoLVRCmk

[@optimusprime0616]

I think i may be just fanboying, but a Flying Lotus x MF DOOM collab would be on par with Madvillain. In my lifetime, make it happen please

[@davidedwards2754]

what about 9th wonder

do the astral plane

[@SirHeisenberg94]

Lotus is dope as FUCK!!

[@ImANaidemoc]

lol i used to think they were related or the same person for some reason idk

[@drsmiles5]

I love this guy.

[@NaNdgate]

Hey guys, i'm not the biggest fan of off wuh guh kuh tah ah but there's no need to bash them so much. Our Lord Steve Ellison produced for them so we should be a little respectful.

[@jvemPiRe14]

@petrucci619 um.... nujabes is dead dude :(

[@mechanicalpuddinfoxx]

he produced a couple songs for hodgy beats
