The Making Of French Montana & Swae Lee's "Unforgettable" With 1Mind | Deconstructed

[@sidi6609]

Producers deserve more credit, they made this song great

[@maze2512]

Sid I the culture deserve's more credit , it made this song great.

[@mxxxw4529]

Swae lee did

[@undisclosedbeats2685]

Yeah usually I'd agree with this point 100%. However, I find the vocals from Swae Lee are pretty intoxicating and set a really unique mood. But, saying that the beat is fire and has many different elements that make it it's own masterpiece

[@Isaiaha400]

Sid I very true. Very accurate

[@SheenEstevezzz]

U can't discount Swae's vocals like that. They're both equally important. In general producers deserve more credit tho

[@JT-Barney]

Not talking bout this song specifically, but producers stay saving rapper's careers nowadays

[@prodbyxanderjohan]

without rappers, there is no rap - without beat - the rappers got nothing This is how hiphop beathes.

[@fredfish5832]

Ryan Brachamonte that's with any genre of music

[@finh2120]

Fr

[@jayresto933]

True metro saved alot of artists

[@mbf6160]

[@JohnWolf]

Man casually graduates at Yale, gets a C- in electronic music class, then has the biggest song in the world near graduation. Bless.

[@RandomFUN9]

Source?

[@lilbroomstick7914]

@mccullareid on instagram he's got pics up on there of him at Yale graduation over in New Haven CT

[@eco4988]

fuck the grades, not the music. Grades are just a letter.

[@adamkhalfi6930]

ECO that determine ur future and how far u get in life

[@SpencerSteelMusic]

straight like that lmao. "On The Way" is my shit btw, man. Great song

[@LDKstudiobeats]

Best series on Genius

[@TheBreezus]

I second that, its about time the producers gets some shine!

[@RTCLR123]

Breeze programers should have bugatti's

[@Victoria_Fama]

Pen Griffey : well you have to figure out a ton of different stuff. Then the challenge in it is all the potential, possibilities, and combinations in creating a straight banger

[@בןבראונשטיין-ו9ו]

Pen Griffey Producing is much than just adding notes in a computer program, you have to actually learn the purpose and sound of every instrument so you can basically do each "band member's" part, more than the techincal stuff you gotta have a good musical sense and a unique style cause no artist wanna sound like everybody else (unless it sales)

[@bond2253]

Think gnius this segment deserve be in tv show

[@jhardworkpaysoff474]

Producers need more credit

[@hayshunarchives]

Jhardwork Pays off thank you

[@RickyGoreMusic]

Too true

[@RickyGoreMusic]

Lucky enough for me all the artists that I've worked with have given me credit but know that's not the case for most producers anymore. It's said asf. We do all the work

[@tom7131]

+lil boat without producers, artists songs wouldn't exist.

[@tom7131]

+lil boat every song made before your comment wouldn't exist without the producers. kodak black would be nothing without the producer for tunnel vision. it wouldn't be the same. future , drake wouldn't be the same without metro boomin. they wouldn't have the producers touch, their mixing technique, production technique. at the end of the day, the artist is just providing the vocal, the producer provides the beat which comprises of so much more, kick , snare , vocal fx , synths etc. producing takes years to perfect and these artists would be working in sainsburys before they can produce something 50% as good

[@PicturesJester]

This guy got one of those voices where he stops trying to talk at the end of sentences and just drags it to the end

[@melissamm3086]

PicturesJester lol what

[@bblaam27]

PicturesJester i was wondering how to describe his voice and .....you said it perfect lol i thought i was the only one that thought that.

[@shawnallen6493]

PicturesJester 😂😃😂

[@lukaspkhakadze3021]

I just can't pay attention to him

[@grandpapiprez]

5:50 he talks just like how you described it

[@AlwaysL1t]

Guy on the left: "DoesitlooklikeI'mleftoffunforgettable"

[@vartebugge]

Haha

[@josephblanchard6248]

Lmaooo

[@zakharnazarenko3473]

Ba a booji

[@DatDaDatty]

Song wouldnt have been as popular without Swae Lee

[@tommyali1787]

Dat don't you think we ALL know tht

[@bestevery3891]

You right.

[@carloscorpancho3130]

Dat i give 45% credit to swae, 45% credit to the producers, and 10% to french for this song being a smash

[@LeightonMorris]

Dat french Montanas entire career is built off collabs. Without them he wouldnt be shit...

[@antlive3761]

Dat facts

[@Enyamasparw]

This guy's producer spirit is on point🔥 He's happy with the result and just glad to see people jumping on it, production wise or vocally. Big up👍

[@UnisusMC]

Oliver Fredlund but simps care more about his lips not being chapped lol

[@maliboy8039]

Oliver Fredlund ya fr that's how you SHOULD feel after that kinda success. Still can't believe that 🎸 came from a pack, now it's on top of the charts. Sik

[@willraindrop5]

[@TRILLG9]

song of the year

[@sasha1551]

Every time I listen to "Unforgettable" it brings me back to summer 2017. Every time I hit the club and this song started playing, the whole crowd would go crazy. It just gives me that nostalgia that I felt two years ago. Shit even when I traveled to Japan, Hong Kong, and Australia this was the song everyone was listening to. It was world wide!

[@maxkraidelman1156]

If Dave Franco and Matthew Mcconaughey had a baby it would be the dude in the maroon sweatshirt

[@zachtooill]

max kraidelman how tf did you even think of that

[@willcho7188]

[@tahjeisaacs5306]

[@javedabdool1187]

Totally!! Haha

[@lorenzoe.leonard4160]

max kraidelman And the other dude look like Raul

[@harryarias2476]

Swae lee kinda made the song what it is

[@ririx7990]

[@AWESOMEIDIOT100]

Eric Arias i like french in it, he has the club banger hints

[@geezillcats]

Forreal.

[@718World]

Kinda? Lol. It's his song practically

[@ybsp4310]

It was his song, French recognized it was a banger and bought it off him.

[@demiladeolaleye8766]

The steel pans were the secret ingredient

[@whoiskrow8075]

the guy in the white shirt sound like chris from family guy. 💀

[@severusfloki5778]

I cant stand people who speak like this

[@Frost4Real]

Haha so true man

[@ChristianOrtizTV]

Lmao crazy how the best takes you to the vibes of Africa. In reality you're at a Frat Party in Indiana 😂😂

[@joeroganstrtshots881]

CokeBoiiMontana most producers are jews

[@invntiv]

They are definitely humble dudes, im shocked by this as well. Totally expected someone else behind the board

[@brandonjoo2774]

We need to pay producers more and pay crappy ass rappers less

[@mcjazz]

Brandon Joo he got $700,000 for a beat he never has to perform

[@peterp7445]

Jazz Belarde how you know?

[@origamiscotty]

I've liked this song even before it was a summer hit

[@jendbfflyndbdn3220]

TFA congrats bro wanna 🍪

[@wonderwoman5373]

Me too

[@ririx7990]

I've been listening to this since last year November

[@notprosperBEATS]

Ikr

[@lorealmadonna8]

I like that they give the producers a chance to show their part because it's not always about the artist!

[@changhunyang9594]

Good to see producers are recognized more and more through this channel

[@ohsosaucy]

I love these, very inspiring for up and coming producers

[@Victoria_Fama]

med sas : hell ya. One of my career ideas but I'm not sure in myself

[@samuelmathew3179]

02:15 That reverse guitar chords are heckin' Genius! Producers should be appreciated as much as the singers ❤

[@jasondmarajh]

3:06 TRINIDAD & TOBAGO STAND UP! :D

Make a beat like one dance and ur song will blow up guarantee

[@LeightonMorris]

Legal Cake tru

[@SamurottNetwork]

always strive and prosper what the heck is afrotrap? Dafuq these drum patterns are and have been in Latino music called reggeton. Ever heard of daddy Yankee? These drum patterns have been found on Latin music forever. Also the drum pattern is called dembow

[@Fuziontony123]

Creek Vermillion Not even Reggaeton. It started with Dancehall and eventually Reggaeton borrowed that.

[@Fuziontony123]

always strive and prosper it can't be Afrotrap because there's no hi-hats that flutter rapidly.

[@Losabias111]

@@mxxxw4529 it's reggaeton lol

[@Nicolasmondragon707]

Wasn't expecting a bunch of nerds from Indianapolis to make this beat...

[@MMaldonado611]

Altay Yeah but Ricky Rubin has been in the game for more than 30 years

[@yngeskimo7894]

haha lol me neither but u know what hey say...who run the world (nerds!) haha

[@tafarixx6512]

It's usually the guys who are "nerds" or goofy looking who understand sound design and music theory, and therefore are able to make incredible chord patterns, structure songs well etc

[@user-lz3og1br7f]

Im pretty sure no dumbass high school drop out is smart enough to a make a beat this good so of course they had to be "nerds".

[@alongabai0]

Kanye started producing when he tried made video games so production is for nerds

[@QualityDubs]

I love watching these. It gives me idea's on how to improve and how to lay out beats.

[@rajeev3340]

The slow down in the end is fuckin incredible

[@jaskiratsandhu3776]

Where's Jaegen????

[@kimberlyramkissoon5765]

Amazing how our national instrument of Trinidad and Tobago make music sound so beautiful #thesteelpan♥

[@samuellangrin7334]

And then they combined it with a dancehall drumbeat 🇯🇲🇹🇹

[@waves1074]

That slowed down part was fucking amazing. How didn't make it on the final cut????

[@ahmedalmahdawi3552]

Damn Suarez left Barca? Damn he let himself go.

[@gursagarishar]

Barca kicked him out mate lol

[@frank683]

The steel pans make this song have the carribean vibe too it💯

[@EatsRainbows15]

This is the shit I've been waiting for, goddamn.

[@andersonlopez535]

Bro the beat make me wanna dance fr💫

[@DelainoBarris]

Good seeing Reasons being used for this

[@misterman6691]

Bottoms up every time the guy says ‘like’.

[@ThatLauraPerson]

THIS is my fav series on KZbin by far

[@chefjasonperu]

This is a masterpiece. Well done guys.

[@crdz9862]

I’ve seen this a couple months ago and I remember this guy saying “we’ve put the shit that sells” talking about the drums. Genius has edited this for sure

[@Cookie-nv1tk]

Hi Genius. If you're reading this, please keep these types of videos coming. They're so interesting, it's like deconstructing the music!

[@3LUESIDEPRODUCTION]

Thanks to GENIUS for giving the producers some recognition

[@kirmedvedev]

Those guys are gold

[@TearitoffE]

We played this song after my brothers funeral til 4am n all the neighbors never complained once 😂🙅🏽‍♂️

[@bfecmePyRo3]

Clearly they didn't get the proper royalties from the track. Shout out my fellow producers. They sleep on us.

[@beatsbykana]

Idk how french went without knowing who produced it. I had to look them up immediately as soon as I heard it

[@azzam415]

im glad they mentioned jaegen

[@Gm_s.e]

Genius please don't EVER stop making this "making of" video serie....

[@fractalvision120]

Why does he look like the guy who never made it into a fraternity and goes hiking in Yellowstone over summer with his parents?

[@wayned535]

LOOOOOOOOOOLLLL this is accurate affff

[@morelife4127]

loooooooooool ffsake ahahaahahahahahh faaaacts

[@Rdizzle512]

B L lmao

[@nathanspeiser]

I kinda wanted to see how he brought the snares to life. Still a great video! Amazing job on the beat

[@BLINDIAN1995]

Damn reason is making moves! I see more and more producers using it!

[@JoshAllen702]

Brian Daniels reason gang!

[@invntiv]

It’s makin a comeback for sure. Reason was THE shit before Ableton took over. Unfortunately at that time it just wasnt as flexible because they had their own format, Refills, for samples. They also didnt support VST plugins back then either so when Ableton came along and offered those two features along side the Live aspect, Reason took a huge hit. Propellerhead is trying really hard to add the features but the iLok system is going to prevent it from being pirated, which will only damage it’s success. Most people pirate software until they start making money from their beats, then they become loyal customers because that’s the software that helped them make it.

[@SpaceBoundBroadcast]

Gotta love that Spanish style rhythm 😍 tryna channel my roots and incorporate that vibe into my beats more

[@Kajol.b]

Where's jaegen

[@Ethan-pr1zh]

I still cant even comprehend how producers think of all this shit to add to make songs bangers. Its unbelievable, they need more credit.

[@LoveMeBack]

Where is the 300k sample?

[@JohnSmith-ib4zi]

I love how they didnt talk about the vocal atmospheric stuff in the beat that actually made it pop

[@georgespyropoulos2692]

An actual hit song made in Reason

[@j1theboogeyman]

g.co/kgs/jkCNzC

[@j1theboogeyman]

This one too :)

[@dbanga5]

Plenty of producers made hits with Reason

[@compteprivefr]

Drake's "Passionfruit" was made on Reason

[@Gusstra]

Glad to see somebody using Reason!

[@StaticxAccord]

beat it up like jaegan

[@farooqgotaudio]

Shout out all my Reason producers!

[@TONAH]

i like the slow pan of the board at 2:04 to show its only purpose is to keep the room warm

[@xdangelovidz]

Been rocking wit 1MIND

[@beepboop1748]

Swae Lee was the one who carried this song, it’s not even about the beat, he just gave a godly performance and hook

[@Brockway.]

The beat was great and it wouldn't have been as big if the beat was different

[@compteprivefr]

lol the whole song is the beat. Swae def killed it but you listen to the instrumental alone it's fire and people comment how sick the vibe is on it

[@Pacifica1]

This beat is the new forever classic

[@prod.byfarhan4775]

Do knxledge, key wane, wondagurl, or pierre bourne

[@texanh-town7074]

Farquan they should do more Travis Scott.

[@ballisticsound4796]

JaycenJoshua mixed this right? Them kicks hits

[@avimaharaj2920]

TRINIDAD & TOBAGO !

[@mikesixtobeats]

Which vst is using for the steel pan?

[@freshboi5945]

Finally something good came out of Minneapolis

[@daisylou22]

can't believe this dude made a beat for french montana & swae lee in the same city where i was getting lit

[@IHMadeThis]

The production is dope...Swae Lee killed it...the video was wonderful and French's verses were like someone pissing on a nice rug that really tied the room together.

[@SILK97]

Can't lie when Rae Sremmurd first came out I thought they were one and done. But this dude Swae Lees got star power, dude knows how to make a hit

[@Jiggidy22]

PLEASE DO DECONSTRUCTED OF "LOVE GALORE" BY SZA. THAT BIG FACTS

[@jett.2578]

I wish we could hear the unreleased Swae part at the end

[@benny_bricks714]

[@STANKBREATH]

I love this series.

[@wickedvq491]

One of the best beats ever made

[@baithoven420]

It's not often you see a hiphop producer using reason. Didn't even think you could make a good sounding hiphop beat there but they proved me wrong :O

[@Blueminescast]

Ramriddlz is flames

[@gadremiebeats7530]

They're like characters from a movie about nerd friends that don't want to lose their friendship

[@neptunesOC]

This Beat & Tune is LIT🔥🔥🔥🔥.. for sure one of my best song for the summer!.. almost feel like a Dancehall tune.

[@samuellangrin7334]

Aye ik u typed this 6yrs ago but if you look up the song on wikipedia it says the composition is a mix between dancehall and hip hop🔥

[@neptunesOC]

Thank you 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥

[@frank683]

Bruhh I've been waiting for them to make a video for this song

[@allelitememesaem3916]

Man all the popular dance hall and carribean vibe records are being made by people outside the culture. Just a observation

[@rich369963]

Yea but dance hall and carribean people get some of their hits from our culture too so its a even trade

[@Czalty]

T2Thunder 2 I dont care as long they are respectful of the culture

[@OHHnoYOUdidntMAN]

We have the economy to make the technology for making music accessible on a large scale. Plus in the US there are so many different kinds of music, combining one with another to make a song even better is inevitable

[@uglierduckling6321]

Cultures have to mix and mash to progress

[@AllHailNannerpuss]

So what. There's a demand for it. Who cares where the beats come from or from who.

[@Scarr-jc3sh]

What software is used for creating beats like this?

[@doht4870]

Scarr10813 reason

[@johnpappadopoulos2812]

This is 1mind ft swae lee
