The Making of D.R.A.M.'s "Cute" With Charlie Heat | Deconstructed

Grammy nominated producer Charlie Heat signed to G.O.O.D. Music last year and has since produced for Kanye West, Vic Mensa, Pusha T, Kehlani and D.R.A.M.. His ethereal production on “Cute” attracted D.R.A.M. within seconds and eventually became the second single off of his debut album, Big Baby D.R.A.M.

[@tommoody3843]

@Genius is such a dope channel, their creative segments like "deconstructed" take any average hip hop fan to a deeper level to what goes on behind the scenes and how much work is involved with these creative minds to have a richer experience. Maybe its the weed but i find that shit so cool

[@kenadams9484]

I appreciate this series frfr.

[@MyLittleBrotherOwen]

Genius y'all are slacking though. You need to do these Beat breakdowns way more often.

[@TripleMTmoney]

[@judeonsomebs]

I love the fact that producers are getting much more recognition for the work they do

[@mr.sennin7923]

[@raptxrrtv7522]

Cristian Marin lol

[@ayedone]

This is the only reason I'm subscribed to this channel

[@Bullitthiphop]

Good beat seems to be a cool guy who makes good music. Saying that Kanye wasn't by far the first person to use vocal parts of sampling, he made it popular once again, along with speeding up to high pitched (again didn't create it as producers like Rza been doing it years ahead) and he also wasn't the first to use a bridge

[@mmmghool]

This is cool and inspirational. Gonna keep working.

[@jflores.411]

we need more of these

[@mikeythakid]

The instrumental is so relaxing

[@BcnEggNChz_]

G G G Good Work Charlie!

[@jontealex13]

[@myles6917]

[@skaterboi65]

[@alex-er3de]

[@cesarortiz7568]

DRAM is the best worst singer in the game

[@actonUPchannel]

GOOD WORK, CHARLIE!

[@joranawut]

Wich logiciel is he using ?

[@popdanish4969]

What does he use for kicks?

[@sammybwoy]

He actually produces in FL Studio then bounces those stems in to logic

[@officialmixon]

sammybwoy why does he do that? Does he prefer mixing in logic?

[@allroundlad]

Richard Mixon FL has better piano roll so you create your tracks and then bounce them to logic because FL playlist arranger is ass compared to logics

[@jaymonet9628]

He so Fine!!! mmhmm 😍😍😍 "I think your cute..." 😂😂😂

[@forincognito22]

That is a fresh jacket

[@drdurag169]

Surprised this doesn't have more views this has quality production

[@karl-anthonytowns7625]

[@billycook777]

[@SYVERIA]

BRO! I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT NAMED “K!CK” THE KICK TRACK/PATTERN (I also use Logic Pro X By the way)

[@fcporto49]

[@emmanueljohnson2631]

Imma go ahead & say it right now! Charlie Heat is just a younger Mike Dean. (Don't @ me fam)

[@PestoIsLarge]
