👏 Special shout-out to @JohnZackYT (link in description) who’s been requesting this one in pretty much every Sample Breakdown ever. Dedication pays off! Thanks John, appreciate you.

Question is: which flip should be next?

[lilacswimmer]

man yall had ALL the scratches too? greatest sample breakdowns of all time, consistently

[jorgepadilla]

I apologize to the person that requested this months back and I called him a dummy for thinking this will ever be possible. Tracklib I was wrong. Thank you for this!

[samakafrisco]

The most impressive Sample Breakdown yet.

[Wulzy]

holy moly the scratches and everything

[dannydamnmendez]

That's impressive that you guys even did the scratches of the samples too! Can y'all do "Devil's Pie" like this? 😍

[pjetrs]

This beat encapsulates everything that makes hiphop production so beautiful. There is so much to discover

[TwinkleNZ]

Ooh, they're including Preemo's scratches

[shahruzbashirov]

DJ Premier is just saint. How he can put this sample together is wonder 🔥🔥🔥

[ofentsemako]

DJ Premiere's sampling technique is something else, what he does with the music he samples is crazy. Some of the songs he samples are barely recognizable once you hear the original it's like "what part of this song did he flip?".

[edwardreflects]

Tracklib did it again, thanks for the content and inspiration.

[Dertres]

dude the visuals for this one are fire, I love seeing the scratch samples move back and fourth

[damim.]

Mighty Preemo 🔥🔥🔥.. He made it sound like it's simple maths, but this is one of the most impressive sampling and beats you'll ever hear. Period. Effing legend! Thumbs up to Tracklib for this impressive remake btw, instant sub!!

[ImFigure]

Damn this is next level with all the cuts on there too.

[CiRdy]

One of the best sample breakdowns y'all ever did, gotta appreciate the editing on this one holy cow

[theceej.]

I think I have a new found appreciation for this track. So layered and dense. Incredible production by Preemo. Even better breakdown by Tracklib. Would also be sick to see more J Dilla.

[blankeybeats]

These kinds of videos are going to change the way the next wave of music is made. THANK YOU

[ThaRixer]

Awesome work with those scratches. I see the effort you're putting into this whole thing. We appreciate it

[davidgillus]

THE WAY PREEMO CHOPPED THAT SAMPLE bruuuuhhh!!!! HIS BRAINWAVES ARE JUST DIFFERENT!! And that's why he's one of, if not the BEST to do it! #salute

[hello]

This is why Preemo is so talented. I make beats, but could never chop samples like that.
