the CRAZIEST kpop songs produced by dem jointz

[@abcdefghi2731]

u can tell he really like working with nct 127

[@lovestodanceinthedark]

and we love him for that

[@xshotaro_rose]

I feel like NCT 127 fits the vibe of his songs the most

[@myraclesname]

with aespa they're the only group able to pull it off

[@mooniejunnie4779]

For real though aespa n nct pull off his sounds the best

[@thebaddestqueenczennie]

​@@myraclesnamecan aespa pull off a sticker?

[@ttom8875]

kpop fans pretend to hate his sound, but his songs always end up going viral. the truth is he helped create and develop a whole artistic movement within kpop and SM groups made it possible. he never abandoned his vision, and now everyone wants to work with him. i love that for him. uncle dem, you're a genius.

[@revegloss]

it's not about "pretending to hate his sound". his sound is not everyone's taste. he's very hit or miss for me. there songs he's done that i love and there's songs by him that i can't stand listening to. his work is just not for everyone.

[@dxohwf]

​@@reveglosssameee very hit or miss, there's a few i don't really like. but at the same time the hits are so damn good like wow iconic so idrc about the misses lol

[@myraclesname]

@@revegloss while I agree, the hate is definitely excessive and forced. Objectively speaking none of his songs are bad.

[@evalinez]

💯💪

[@dxohwf]

@@myraclesname objectively speaking i don't think many people listen to sticker unironically, it's just so weird bro

[@kimberlychan5441]

once the "incomingggg" comes, i know its gonna be good already

[@krispy777]

When I heard it on EXO’s Obsession and Aespa’s Supernova, I was so excited. Cuz I loved his prior stuff.

[@sgaleks8305]

That’s why jm excited for Itzy upcoming comeback on 15th October

[@kermit4799]

Dem Jointz is basically the SM sound to me now. Absolute genius and always on the cutting edge.

[@sweetiegemm]

i hear 'INCOMINGGGG' then i am SEATED.

[@wonbin__riize]

he made the iconic puku puku pow pow song

[@yusebums7916]

i feel like ay-yo isso underrated like the chorus hits differently

[@wendy-um8ip]

It's one of my favorite songs by them

[@Breadkun_llll]

Agree, even though ayyo was good for me but it could have a lil more better with a effort... ​@@HazelnutCoughFee

[@dani-888]

!!!

[@kamille-qw7kx]

AY-YO IS SO GOOD IM GLAD SOMEONE IS SAYING ITTTT

[@lolablythe]

i love ay-yo too like i love the chorus also and its one of my fav 127 songs😭

[@nameless8310]

he can really do everything and still maintain his style, which i respect so much. i feel like i know it's his song even without hearing his iconic producer tag.

[@Suha2019]

I know Me too 😂

[@makeart-notwar-6732]

when you see dem jointz in the credits, expect some crazy shit

[@sanriozen]

sm and dem jointz is the best thing that has ever happened in kpop

[@369ellie]

He is so good, he is the real NCT sound tbh He is just an extra member at this point 😂 All of my most played NCT songs are from him Yes, even sticker Especially sticker hehe

[@bangtanmoosahu]

I agree and sticker and ay-yo are masterpieces ✨

[@yusi.rahmatika]

STICKER IS MASTERPIECE!!! IDK WHAT PEOPLE SAY!

[@msidai]

Saaaaaame!!

[@Chipubear]

I like some of them, and sticker is prob one of my favorite songs in kpop 😭

[@143szns]

ay yo did not get enough hype

[@krispy777]

THAT BRIDGE 👌🏻 ended up being the sneak peek into the subunit

[@lauravanessarodrigueznaran1909]

I love the fact that SM saw and understood Dem's artistic vision and that they were attracted to his musical style, and I also love the fact that they trusted both Dem and their artists, because the truth is, the songs that Dem made for SM artists can only be interpreted by SM artists themselves, the artistic vision of Dem and SM coincide incredibly well, and by joining forces they make an unbeatable duo, thanks to SM Dem is on the KPop map, and thanks to Dem, some SM artists have had great songs.

[@huangrenjunism]

he has the craziest producer discography. just hit after hit. he’s developed sm/nct 127’s sounds so clearly and i’ve never been so happy

[@marialovesmarklee]

So he created some of the most iconic NCT songs

[@wongxuxi]

dem jointz and nct 127 are a match made in heaven like they’re just perfect for each other, 127 gives birth to exactly what dem wants and dem gives 127 songs only they can pull off

[@-EL111]

im ur 127th like

[@wongxuxi]

@@-EL111 PUKU PUKU PAW PAW 🦅🔥‼️

[@sandcarad]

funny thing is he's actually done a decent number of non-SM songs but SM artists are the only ones that are willing to the do the intense experimental stuff that he's now known for. Honestly I love his sound, he's a producer that keeps making music fun and interesting

[@HOSHTASTIC]

the transition from that mark line in sticker to the first parade chorus in 6:10 is SO GOOD

[@HOSHTASTIC]

and the one with the end of don't call me to the beginning of the 2nd verse in ay-yo at 8:47 as well as the one that goes from that taeyong line (also in ay-yo) to the final chorus just RIGHT AWAY at 9:02!!! (ALSO THE ONE WHEN IT GOES FROM THAT SUHO LINE IN OBSESSION TO THE FINAL SECONDS OF THE LAST PRECHORUS AT 10:04 OKAY!) (AND THE ONE IN HEYA WHEN IT GOES FROM THAT INSTRUMENTAL LINE TO THE FINAL CHORUS AT 10:24 OH MY GOD??)

[@unicoysolotuyo]

@HOSHTASTIC i’m glad you noticed! sound transitions are my new obsession and i’m trying to get better at it, but as i still edit on my phone i feel limited

[@unicoysolotuyo]

@HOSHTASTIC that last obsession precious is so INSANE words can’t convey my emotions. the parts i combined are my favorite

[@asobhani40]

Definition of "experimental"

[@chachalom]

Dem jointz and Kenzie they made what we know as the SM style

[@msidai]

FACTS! I'd throw LDN Noise and Moonshine in there, too.

[@jenni8383]

it’s not a 127 comeback without dem jointz 🙏🏽 they’re truly a match made in heaven

[@seerdaf7246]

5:10 lollll Sticker is like a million dollar abstract painting that makes some people go "huh?", but then some people go " THIS IS ART." Lmao

[@msidai]

This has me cracking up, but it is TRUE!! I'm the THIS IS ART crowd. LOL

[@changjinius1499]

​@@msidaiI'm the opposite lol I've been trying so hard to like it since it came out, it even sparked my friendship with one of my best friends but I can not help but groan every time I hear it lmaooo

[@okami9222]

SM just love this man

[@avsambart]

I didb't realise how many of my favs he did (Supernova, Punch, Cherry Bomb, 2yao2yao, Kick It, Sticker, Don't Call Me, Obsession). Minus some questionable lyrics, every song is a BANGER, especially when you listen to just the melody. The way he created the ultimate neo song (Sticker) too. Amazing!

[@wongxuxi]

Not all of the lyrics are written by him, though. He mostly produces the songs and then the demo lyrics are changed by the korean lyricists. For example, GOT’s “Step Back” lyricists were Yoo Youngjin and Ryan S. Jhun who are both Korean and have written/worked on many SMe songs. Just saying this to clarify that most likely those questionable lyrics are not written by him, as he’s American and writes the demos in English and YYJ is known for his questionable lyrics not just for girl groups but even boy groups too.

[@user-ru6ht3vs4g]

crazy how we have the exact same taste it's almost scary

[@LnRit02]

truly he is THE most exciting creative force in kpop, and a bastion of the sm brand. you would not believe the amount of play i got out of the ay-yo album the year it came out and how stoked i was about supernova.

[@anammaqsood4300]

He produced Obsession😯 He is a great producer man!!!!!!!!!

[@Sunnie313]

Dem Jointz is one of my favorite producers. He had produced for some of my favorites artists Rihanna, Janet Jackson, Kendrick Lamar, Dr. Dre, Kanye West, EXO, and NCT 127. He is a well known, and respected music producer in the US music industry. The fact that he is from Compton and is producing such versatile and "Neo" sounding music in kpop makes me admire him even more.

[@msidai]

YESSSSS

[@californianfreaks6605]

exo yayaya, red velvet don’t u wait no more, and nct 127 timelapse and designer are some my favorite tracks produced by him!! he’s genuinely a hit maker 😭

[@krispy777]

YA YA YA 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@cocazade7703]

Imagine being the producer behind SM boy groups's most iconic songs in the past few years. Kick It, Don't Call Me and Obsession??

[@saanirio]

dem jointz influenced nct's identity so well like his production is insane he'll take a weird beat and make it sound so well itll get you obsessed

[@hrududu1690]

There was a time before Sticker, and a time after Sticker. Iconic.

[@seruleanade]

dem jointz is my FAVOURITE kpop producer. he is a regular producer for SM title tracks at this point, and i cant lie i love all of them

[@snowminL485]

His style is soooooooooo SM and no wonder why did SM fall in love with him 😂

[@Leslisaloveschu]

Sm really put him on the K-pop map. I’m excited to hear more songs he’ll produce for the industry. 😊

[@ГеоргиДобрев-б1к]

Obsession his greatest creation 😍😍😍😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@johnsbananashawol7054]

Demjointz INCOMINGGGGG

[@miap127]

once yall hear “incoming” or “and now the breakdown” it’s over for everyone because you’ll hear a masterpiece that can make anyone elevate out of their seats 😣‼️

[@neocityhoe]

Not a SINGLE miss in sight.

[@blammmed]

stciker....

[@ahgwsn]

​@@blammmed you just don't get it 😊

[@hakunamatataya]

Universe (let's play ball) is one of the best NCT U title tracks. You can't just ignore how iconic the song is and the members in this unit?? PERFECT!

[@alexrauhl]

Dem Jointz + SM Groups hit different fr.

[@sylviane9041]

The fact that they also sampled an arabic song by the legend fairuz you could hear it in the intro of put your stamp on it

[@Lucki77712]

El helwa de is my mom's fav song 😭

[@exonctsvtrvaespa]

supernova is like a new experiment that he made successfully at first try (?). at first i was shocked that he's the one who produced this song because its like a new flavor from his regular songs (if you listen to nct song i think you know what i mean) but the more i listen to supernova, the more it made sense to me that this is really a dem jointz song produced.

[@antonetteng2736]

Skyscraper, Ayo and yes Sticker are all at the top of my many NCT playlists 😊 he’s an honorary Neo at this point 😂

[@susana-y9p]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU DEMJOINTZ *falls to knees and starts howling*

[@jaesungz]

after watching this i've come realize a pattern w most of my fav songs... they're all produced by dem jointz.

[@magnolia_]

u lowkey evil for cutting sticker right before the chorus 😭 but yeah, dem jointz' a genius (also, don't know if people know this alr but: in the instrumental version of "ay-yo" by nct 127, after doyoung's having his high-note moment and right before mark raps, you'll hear the "incomingggg" trademark).

[@JEFF.4LVES]

right, if someone have the official instrumental they can hear it

[@msidai]

Sheesh. Too bad you can't hear it with the vocals in.

[@sunny_powr1933]

Sm is obsessed with his sound and their artists do it justice every time (esp nct 127)

[@onyourm_ark02]

i love when dem jointz work with nct127, i always ended loving the song no matter what

[@sejreads626]

omg I'd thought "incoming" was a sample that just happened to be used on a lot of songs I liked, this video/comment section has made me realize dem jointz was the common thread 🤯

[@unicoysolotuyo]

“incoming”, “and now the breakdown”, and sometimes just the “dem jointz” are his producer tags

[@oksanaa.8331]

I love all the songs he produced for the boy groups here. Hope he continues working with kpop idols because the outcome is always mind-blowing!

[@offal6795]

i really appreciate how dem jointz excels in specific type of sound to their SM artist. could not agree that they seemed to have more fun with nct, but the sound they brought to exo, got the beat, aespa, and other groups fit their overall soundscape without removing the quirkiness of sounds that make dem jointz, dem jointz

[@iinaego]

2:46 supernova might be his best work in SM entertainment the instrumental is actually sick

[@naurrr]

every time dem jointz works with SHINee I know it's gonna be an immaculate banger

[@lunenachts]

I had no idea he did tank!! I wish people appreciated that song more it really was ahead of the curve

[@neoozone]

In most of the songs he produced, you can actually hear his producer tag : “INCOMIIIING”. You can hear it at the beginning of tank :)

[@lunenachts]

@@neoozone i kid you not for a while I thought it was a goofy sound effect and not a producer tag LOL

[@idkwhattoputhere5112]

Punch, Kick It, and Cherry Bomb are among my favorite songs of all time!

[@wueeure]

Time lapse by Nct 127 is fav song he has produced , is literally soo good 😭😭💖💖💖

[@HOSHTASTIC]

this is literally your best video when it comes to the transitions, like, i love it SO MUCH + kinda sad that you didn't put cloud 9 & ya ya ya by exo, taste by red velvet and arcade by nct dream in it (i need to take a moment to praise dem jointz for working on these songs too), but that's okay

[@unicoysolotuyo]

i wanted to use these songs as well, especially yayaya! also regret it

[@cristhian4012]

Dem Jointz x NCT its something that NEVER fails! The magic formula.

[@coolsk8r]

everytime im listening to a new song and hear the incomingg i lose my shit omg

Dem Jointz is genuinely my favorite producer. He and SM seem to have this understanding of one another I love it so much! I can’t wait for the inevitable RIIZE-Dem Jointz track.

[@exolswiftly]

I LOVE his work with exo, cloud 9, ya ya ya, regret it and of course queen obsession!

[@lukasbuchinger7428]

IDC what anybody is saying: cherry bomb is still a top tier song and such a hit. And I personally think it's a good track to show people that wanna get into NCT.

[@neowjeans]

omg the transition from parade to cherry bomb!!

[@hakunamatataya]

Sticker, I will always choose you as well. Thanks dem jointz for making this for 127.

[@phix27]

So many of these are songs I LOVE and had no idea they all had the same producer but this makes so much sense lol

[@kid-ava]

i think kick it and juice have to be THE most dem jointz songs of all time

[@Lalalalal6969]

As someone who went to an IVE concert and saw HEYA live I CAN'T EXPRESS HOW GOOD IT SOUND LIVE, the first time I heard the song I got goosebumps but it's nothing compared to when you hear it live. Dem Jointz really knows how to make a drop in a sound feel like you are hearing it live.

[@loxee4769]

Oooooo I didn't know he worked on Parade!! Hell yeah that's like my favourite song of the album

[@unicoysolotuyo]

yesss it’s a favorite of mine as well! especially because i’m skyscraper’s biggest fan

[@baeko586]

I really love dem joints, when I heard "INCOMIIIING" I know something incredible is coming. He is really talented and he matches really well with SM !

[@mar1eru]

I love dem jointz and as a huge fan of kendrick, anderson paak, westside gunn etc, i have always loved his works outside of kpop before i got into kpop myself. But it just REALLY baffles me when a lot of kpop fans say shit like "ugh kpop is becoming more western now" without knowing that a HUGE chunk of these iconic kpop songs were produced by dem jointz, a western producer like 😭 so for them experimental noise hiphop is originally kpop and any other genre is western 💀

[@xlorisyao]

ay yo was the song that made me start stanning 127,, i thought it was so weird but i just couldn't stop listening to it

idc what people say sticker was such a good song

[@crazynoob2459]

so he is the genius behind my favorite songs of all time

[@unicoysolotuyo]

if you like his signature style or ‘sm’ sound definitely look up into kenzie (if you don’t know her, of course). the songs they wrote together are pure insanity (e.g. obsession, juice, universe, supernova). i have a video about her as well!
