Kanye's first major beat placement was on Jay Z's Dynasty album "This Can't Be Life."

[@Milt-g4f]

It wasn't a hit single

[@foodtastesgood8579]

I came here to say that,thank you

[@40EastTrill]

[@yuhbtw]

No his first major placement was Beanie’s “The Truth” and it was also a single

[@CoOl-yc6er]

Glad we got an “Oh Boy” breakdown. Phenomenal beat.

[@professuhx504]

Facts incredible!!!

[@namenlosNamenlos]

Really is, for sho.

[@axMf3qTI]

The beef between Mc Lytle and Antoinette was also about a beat. Mc Lyte says it in the hook of 10% diss. "Beat biter, dope style taker. Tell it to your face you're nothing but a faker". Audio Two's Top Billing vs Antointte's I Got An Attitude both used the Impeach The President break beat chopped. So basically the went to war over a break beat which is kinda crazy

[@Virru112]

Oh so that’s where that line came from on 2Pac’s Hit ‘em Up

[@sirnevons]

justblaze's sample work always amazes me🤯hes just too good

[@SamFocused]

I got Goosebumps after the chops of "oh Boy" Started!!! Loved the Song Back in the days but didnt know it was a Rose Royce Sample. Anotherone for the History books no Gossips Just Production 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Amazing Video 💯

[@NavieD]

Thank you Sammmm, that song was so huge when it first came out

[@nickgilday8946]

really impressed by the focused versatility of your channel. Been subbed for a while now and its great to say the focus stay on beats but also spreading your wings to different facets of beat making - tutorials, courses, history lessons you name it. Love it all sir, great job.

Kanye West's first major placement wasn' t on Blueprint it was on That J.D. album I can't think of the album name offhand but it was definitely his first he was paid 5K. Edit: The Album was called Life in 1472 the song was called Turn It Out Jermaine Dupri ft Nas. That's his 1st major placement.

[@genericnickname1]

i believe kenny beats said that you need to do what's the best for the beat, not necessarily the artist. If they tell you they're gonna use the beat but it's been a few months, there has been no action taken and you really want it to get placed, probably a good idea to send it over to someone else. Just think about how many beats got lost because someone "claimed them", whatever that means. Until it's released, the beat only belongs to the producer

[@Down2Die78]

This makes the beef relatable. My friends beat me to a "nice business opportunity" when we were teens. They heard about it separately and got there first but I took it like Cam'ron and ended up snaking some of it away for myself later. Luckily ours didn't escalate to shooting but this video allowed me to see Jay-Z vs Camron beef through my own life. Thank you!

[@kainb.6721]

The transcript read like Cam’ron skits

[@kyle2beats]

3:18 I love your content but I take issue with “a few years pass and then Cam is signed to rocafella” and everything after that lol. Cam signed to Rocafella in 2001. The same year Blueprint came out lol. Just saying lol

[@jaydyer6682]

They are writing poems to eachother at the end of the day

[@Mohammedssbu]

Kanye actually made a semi major beat before this or beanie Siegel called the truth

[@keejay12]

I thought Kanye's first placement was a year prior on The Dynasty album? The song This Cant Be Life 🤔

[@keejay12]

But this is a good video. I didnt know Izzo was supposed to go to Cam first. That's crazy but I think Jay sounded better on it than Cam would anyway and vice versa with Oh Boy

[@CraccCobain]

You’re correct

[@yuhbtw]

No it was Beanie’s “The Truth” which was before all that. It also was the lead single

[@Tristen_Smith]

2:13 how do you do this in fl without drum pattern?

[@sonpois]

[@Abandoned2377]

Kanye's 1st beat on a album wasnt IZzo .. 1st big hit yes but he had beats on albums 2 to 3 years before izzo or blueprint

damn, how dit you know all this stuff? i watched many video from you, and every time i wonder how you recreate all these beats and know how they was made. its a miracle.

[@yuhbtw]

It more impressive being made on a MPC where the sample time is limited

[@djnes2k7]

Bro we all was doing this back then. Blaze was a different beast. We made magic with 5 secs on mpc 2000.

[@budokhai]

Navie, can you do a video showing us the difference between a west coast, east coast and southern hip hop beat?

[@TheRealBigManHarris]

Cam and Jay already had tension before that and Kanye's first major beat placement was on Jermaine Dupri's Life in 1472

[@Antonio_Ortiz]

I know it's part of the industry, but if you show someone a beat first and they claim it, it seems a little unfair to then show the same beat to someone else without honoring the first person's claim to it.

[@jadawngriffis3745]

Jayz let the beat sit too long lol

[@victorosong]

I'm watching this after listening to swagger jacker yesterday.

[@120nsb]

I mean, beefing over who gets to pick beats from batches made by Just Blaze, Kanye, Bink and Heatmakerz is not really that surprising. The Roc had the most solid producer roster of any label at the time.

[@dewanewelch1744]

Bink is so under rated!!!

[@djnes2k7]

@@dewanewelch1744bink is overrated.

[@kcnfdntc]

Truthfully you never know what may not have been if either beat was used for the initial artist. Cam on IZZO was probably not as good and Jay-z on OH BOY was probably not as good so things happen for a reason and both artist made it and made Kanye and Just Blaze more prominent.

[@cs201qwerty]

Great video. Earned a sub.

[@mikematerne4579]

Cam getting yapped in DC had absolutely nothing to do with Jay-Z, but because he played Alpo in Paid in Full.

Similar thing happened to pump it up. Jay passed on it, beans passed on it. Then Joe budden got and wanted Jay to get on it but Jay charged a price he knew no new artist could pay (250k) and Jay went and diss Joe on the mixtape version. And Joe slaughtered Jay on the comeback. A lot of people hate Joe so most never heard it. But if you listen, he ripped Jay much worst than nas did.

Navie D I knew Kanye before his fame he lived in the Hallmark downtown Newark back in 2000 the OTIS beat he got.from a producer who couldn't get it cleared i heard it and the whole building heard it cause he use to play it loud then 10 years past and Kanye claimed he made it in 15 minutes its a known fact in the hood down Newark .
