Rhythm Roulette: Chase N. Cashe | Mass Appeal

Chase N. Cashe has been producing since the age of 17, but fell in love with music even earlier. Though he is well known in the hip hop game as a producer-working with artists like Drake, Lil Wayne, and R Kelly-and rapper he finds himself to be an overall business man (hence the name), not limiting himself to any one category. Expanding beyond music, he's even gotten into streetwear. Some of sport's and music's biggest names have been seen rocking Chase N. Cashe's "Can't Buy Respect" brand.
On our latest episode of Rhythym Roulette, MASS APPEAL caught up with the New Orleans producer to see what heat he had in store for us. After blindly selecting vinyls from The Section, Steppenwolf, and Steve Winwood, the different variation of artists didn't seem to phase him at all. Chopping up smooth yet diverse sounds, Chase N. Cashe did what he does best while still including elements that complement his Southern roots. Catch the action up top.
You can also check out his latest self-produced single, "Major Priority" here.

[@poet215]

"when you look for samples, look for dope covers" wise words

[@bboymac84]

poet215 quite the opposite. The greatest songs had the weirdest albulm covers. its all about the mind of the producer. plus they are blindfoldes

[@joshshuter7536]

poet215 your a fucking BITCH bro. Dont think I didnt notice that you deleted your comment because I exposed you on the against the clock video. FUCK you.

[@thabanidube8766]

He was blindfolded so... How Sway?

[@DojoMuppet]

Thabani Dube meant in general

[@StudioRiba]

HOW SWAYYYYYY !?!?!?!?!?

[@lonskimakktv.711]

If you are a producer ...and you talking like you can do this n that...making negative comments. ..then thats why you haven't progressed to the point where these professionals are you need to do some soul searching with your self...music is a passion...not a popularity contest...get you a placement....im embarrassed to see all the trolls now ....positive thinking aint cool no more smmh

[@kidv2]

👍

[@biggrizzy718]

I'm just trying to learn how to sample On my mpc touch I'm just a Beginner just learning

[@faux36]

[@user-zo2lh7vd2n]

[@signsofthetimes886]

You couldn't have said it better.

[@mcsxorpio39]

We need sounwave on here! Like if you agree! #TDE

[@ChAllynge]

Mc Sxorpio hell yh

[@GRodPericles]

Definitely a producer for spitters. Not too congested and great melody choices. 👌🏿

[@hunterMH1]

I was thinking the same

[@willbiersch5834]

"this bout to be garbage" ".....I told you" lmaoooo

[@nedtheproducer5777]

[@sk_lucii]

Highly Respected. This The Man That Made Drake's "Look What You Done" 🙏👏

[@TheGauchoAmigo]

that piano sample is classic lofi fodder

[@trevonhaddix6349]

The song in the beginning is We Ball by Dom Kennedy for those wondering

[@MrPotts-if7cp]

Clifpark Records featuring Kendrick! That yellow album is still one of my favorite albums. Dom is so underrated

[@jiggyonedutch1710]

people be talking hella shit but this challenge isnt as easy as you think. picking completely random vinyls and coming out with a banger mad quick.

[@probablynot7611]

JiggyOne Dutch forreal

[@badnewzscubasteve]

JiggyOne Dutch and the ones talking shit can't make music for shit

[@Advisorblogger]

You right as hell ive tried it. I have 1000s of cds and well over 4tb of mp3s put it on shuffle three times lol man listen....... lmao

[@mpuzo17ppxucxxlxcodz]

JiggyOne Dutch it's not hard to sample that's why people do it I'd rather have them make a track from scratch NO REASONS AND PROGRAMS TO DO SHIT FOR YOU. CREATE IT WITH INSTRUMENTS LIKE HOW I WAS RAISED. THIS SHIT WHACK

[@ogyunggod9792]

Mario Puzo i could've sworn producers sampled heavily back in the day too🤔Dr. Dre sampled a lot, a lot of Pac's, Biggie's, and Nas' songs used beats that had samples HIP HOP STARTED FROM SAMPLING so why is it such a problem to sample now?

[@AviatorStone]

It would be awesome to have an album or a page to hear the finished products from these producers.

[@cmyonthetrack2121]

this is dope to me. You dont need all that extra shit to make a dope ass beat

[@JoeSoul]

MacBook turned into a Dell Inspiron out of nowhere lol

[@fredcivil4413]

how is this not the top comment

[@JoeSoul]

lol basically his MacBook is an overpriced sampler

[@retropickups2000]

Joe Soul lol

[@MichaelAshe]

At 3:54 he told us to watch lol, and then 4:00 happens 😂

[@aceleone215]

..SAMPLED ON THE MAC.. CREATED ON THE DELL.

[@sstt33zzyy]

He did his thing.. but the sample at 1:54? That was fire

[@jonblakk73ab]

eric stearns right I would've snatched it up

[@salaw]

eric stearns probably wanted that for himself later

[@leahtistrahmad1369]

Yeah I would've chopped that one up lol

[@1skyhigh]

He did use it but not the whole thing

[@yescomplys]

I wouldn't be surprised if he saved it

[@Amazinbeats]

Folks never happy lol watch the episode and move on

[@Phoresight]

Platinum Hustle I was just thinking that lol

[@ezraabbey]

I know they'll never get Madlib or DOOM but I feel like FlyLo, Knx and Mndsgn are all people who'd be down to do RR. Anyone else agree?

[@PetrikovPhotonics]

Check Mndsgn on Against The Clock!

[@ezraabbey]

Petrikov I saw it and it was fucking mind blowing, it's one of the reasons why I'd love to see him on RR

[@jconwaygoodfella5]

Ezra Abbey flylo would be crazy

[@Peets001]

maybe add Kev Brown to the list as well

[@One1Legion]

Knx already tweeted out saying he doesn't wanna do this cuz he doesn't want people to know his workflow

[@busyworksbeats]

#FLGANG

[@dariansimmons7540]

Just like that!

[@agthaog1986]

its only right u would come here brotha. did u do a chase N cashe video??? still be nice to get that or another curren$y tutorial

[@BluntforceJ]

gang gang

[@joshshuter7536]

really #flgang ? thats the gayest hashtag ever bro. L

[@BluntforceJ]

#JoshShuterSucksDicks is the gayest imo

[@bboymac84]

have faith in Steve Winwood

[@JC-md5ti]

MY GUY took it back with cool edit pro

[@tekbeatz]

J C cool edit all day bro.

[@akeemdreams]

J C No way! I had to go back and look lol! My nigga still saucin' Cool Edit Pro! Good eye!

[@jeffp.9369]

its called Adobe Audition now. adobe bougt cool edit years ago and didnt change much to it.

[@johnnyluna7824]

Adobe Audition 1.5 to be exact. I used to be able to edit and chop so fast on that software.

[@m-chopbeats7526]

Yeah 1.5 was the best for chopping. It was smooth and easy to highlight and select the waveform... after that 2.0 wasn't the same, not smooth kind of choppy playhead.

[@coldheart96]

good to see a well know producer use a bedroom producer setup. Just a laptop and fl studio. Beautiful

[@steveninjety7290]

it's good to see producers getting some recognition, it helps inspire up and coming producers

[@beatsnextdoor]

Mad boom bap heads will hate this.This was a dope episode imo.

[@tekbeatz]

beatsnextdoor i think it was good.

[@unfunnycomedian3057]

what was dope about it? articulate yourself

[@user-by3hs5te6i]

yea both beats fit Kodak Black's style. they would be radio hits

[@isaacjones8682]

nothing...lol

[@LoganTheGeeRaff]

beatsnextdoor not really. U can tell this cat has mad influence from boom bap producers . It's dope . N I'm a boom bap head

[@Rondware71]

Mass Appeal- please give us weekly, one hour episodes of RR. Thank you.

[@new2dayuser151]

All music can be sampled! You just need the clearance!! Sampling can emerge forgotten artists and put some money in the originals pockets when done correctly!!

[@Isaac2.]

That sample that starts at 1:30 is the same sample from J. Cole's "Not to self" it is the outro to Forest Hill Drive!

[@Tamurakafka]

YES!🙏🏻

[@retropickups2000]

isaac huerta that's what I thought too bro i thought he was gonna mention it but nah

[@luisescobar2367]

Good ear, but I don't think it's the same. Obviously this is a rendition of Sitting on the Dock of the Bay and there are some chord similarities, but Cole didn't sample this.

[@sherwintavarez8539]

I dont think it's the same, it's pretty different

[@demiladeolaleye8766]

1:23 - Some Cowboy Bebop shit

[@youngkey3051]

One of my favorite. One of the last dope producers left....

[@JosephAlanMeador]

Really enjoyed this one. Got me singing hooks and freestyling. Bro is mad talented

[@yasinrhodes118]

This dude really talented!!!! Give chuz his just due

[@jahwasalegend]

this the most hate I've ever seen for 400 comments. ya'll the the type of mfs to think that top producers like Metro are trash. move on, recognize NEW greatness. not everything is complicated. I usually never comment on shit but i gotta spread a little positivity in the midst of all this meaningless hate.

[@tyronescringeheaven1120]

Did this dude pick 4 records instead of 3? Holy shit, dude's a savage.

[@asmithmusic]

lmbo...I always thought there were two! I saw Chase and was like hey where is Cashe?

[@markopolo945]

Nipsey Hussle on the track 🙏🏾

[@atribecalledjudah5436]

Marko Polo syd lol

[@BussedDownCartier]

This is fireee 🔥

[@itschrisdecastro]

He has great potential! & he already nice. Some of us are nice TOO!

[@ALAMAZAN818]

That first beat needs to be released because it a perfect summer cruise jam.

[@mchl_mll]

Yo Mass Appeal! You have to Release a CD / Vinyl with all the Beats of Rhythm Roulette!

[@JESUSPIECES]

he could play nipsey hussle if a movie were to drop

[@BORN7SUPREME]

All that beautiful equipment around & he made that tin can beat

[@nocuh]

Shoutout to Dunhill Records

[@reefhustlemusic]

Dope loop & session

[@germacam3498]

Yo that first thing he played was fire

[@Parialated]

im gonna be straight i somehow thought this is going 2 b another crappy episode..but this cat is mad dope! props and thanks for the pleasant surprise,sorry for my assumption,u brought fire salute!

[@SleepFan771]

The way he used that Steve Winwood sample sounded so good.

[@dfww1130]

Anybody here from 2022？1:54 is just sampled by Alchemist in The Tonight Show by Curren$y，that‘s really dope！

[@timdrew1939]

Love these videos. I also love the number of bored dudes in the backgrounds of these videos just playing on their phones. When your friend says hey I'm going to the studio to listen to some steve win wood, that's the opportune time to say oh hell no.

[@IsaiahLaRoi]

if he made we ball then you this will be one of the best rr!

[@geoffbrown5621]

actually been waiting on this one

[@adcommit]

i had no clue ya man produces also, good shit.

[@Shakshuka69]

Only reason it's not great is because he could only find 2 bar loops. He has an ear for it at least, which is more than you can say about a lot of these contestants.

[@dcdiditagain]

"Look What You've Done" is an all time vibe

[@mymuses4336]

WOW! This is the BEST! ^..^

[@tonykellydjt2805]

Steve Winwood...one of the best blue eyed soul artists.

[@dxfective6777]

pretty dope

[@MegaToneProductions]

#FL Gang..... I haven't seen Quik Quak Pitchwheel since I started with FL in 2002! Dope.

[@DelainoBarris]

I see Pitchwheel VST in full effect

[@davizion224]

[@Wherethakeys]

2nd beat go crazy! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@toma8283]

[@TheStreetest]

[@paradisegreen7057]

Great Job!

[@corywilliams458]

Busy Works Beeaats!!...S/O!...FL Forever!!

[@Lonte915]

Yes! was hella hyped to see this

[@Breakbeats92.5]

This made we want to stop playing video games on my PC and get on the beats.

[@Jon_cb]

that second beat is hard..everybody is a critic there days lol

[@mrjames851]

shout out to Chase for making the anti-R. Les beat making video ... showing the mood setting (smoking), listening for samples, rejecting samples, playing around with sounds/arrangement, etc.

[@kelvinmafuleka5997]

fire episode!

[@mufugginKing]

Excellent work 🔥

[@zy6507]

I know a lotta people don't know about them, but I'd like to see Mike N' Keys up here. Just me though, I liked them on Nipseys tape.

[@charlierobertson8910]

Mass appeal did you see Linda Walter's comment on DJ Dahi's rhythm roulette? You need to do it.

[@harvmusic4921]

He's unaware that's one of Steve Winwood's hottest hits of the 80's was "Higher Love" which was written by Steve Windwood and Eric Clapton. Chaka is also featured in the background vocals.

[@MrTedclayton]

where did he get a star trak shirt?

[@MrTedclayton]

i follow fashion - never seen this shirt before.

[@bELMOR3]

I'll be on here soon. #claimed

[@reekmac-bey4441]

He one hell of a underrated producer

[@godar-teest2554]

I used to listen to him on SoundClick WAYYYYY back

[@umerahmad8255]

Second beat is heat

[@NickySwedin]

boom boom boom boom boom

[@ProdLewbi]

1:53 was perfect, can't believe he passed it up, still dope though!

[@SlayALLDay1979]

He got that off nicely.

[@evmanbutts]

That Steve Winwood sample was dope!

[@DJ_PROMO_PR]

Mad boom bap head here. But I have no problem saying this was dope, especially that last one. Props on using Cool Edit. Still best audio editor of all time.

[@Ldorado1k]

dope he took that 1st beat in a whole different direction

[@DuckAlertBeats]

Placeholder drums...

[@truetrax2]

DuckAlert Beats aka generic

[@TheWehavecookies]

On that first record he was bout to change it till he heard that sax like hold up this might just be fire 😂

[@Dhindsakarmon]

Give that second beat to Dave east

[@bobbyrussell90]

This track would sound 🔥with vocals

[@KAnthonyStrick]

He snapped on that first one,

[@dopedemo]

We ball ! Dom Kennedy and K dot! Forgot about that gem

[@thugspoet]

to dislike this is to hate

[@brandionrbarnard]

Look like the guy in the background farted out a ghost duck at 1:44 😂😂😂

[@DreadfulControversy]

Dude is nice. But, I was expecting more from him, being how nice he is. Fuk it tho.

[@frankbeen2576]

Beat raw as hell and glad to see he make beats the same way I do Cool Edit And FL Studio its crazy to think that producers frowned upon the way I made beats like this 10 years ago and now to see so many doing it the same way Been rocking with fruityloops since FL3 when it comes to beat making theres no method to the maddness

[@marvin469]

FL 3 & COOL EDIT was my hook up in 2001- 2007 lol

[@christophermiel]

Could he PLEASE drop the needle right, it's killing me. And a question @MassAppeal: Where there two or more days or what happened to the Apple MacBook when it became a Dell?

[@kamauparker9242]

christophermiel what's the proper way to drop a needle?

[@christophermiel]

@Kamau Parker: In a way where the record don't get scratches. You don't have to literally "drop" the needle, you can lower the needle gently with it's little plastic finger.

[@damonejohnson6098]

@@christophermiel your at home he's on the SHOW CHECKMATE 🔫

[@homeofnobles]

when the sample so fire you gotta switch to your pc 3:58

[@FTGU1]

Very tight

[@tk.8847]

This is dead ass my 3rd time watching this today...

[@AYYYEEEEYOOO]

That bruv high af at the end of the video 😂😂

[@eddieballs123421]

what software was he using with the turntables to pitch n speed up the samples? plus which audio editor is that?
