Young RJ Beat Series Episodes 1 & 2

Spotted at nahright.

Here's Young RJ (formerly of B.R Gunna w/ Black Milk) and Barrak Records mainstay breaking down the beat he made which became "Morning Rize" for De La Soul. Nice to see the lab setup (customized MPC3000, Pro Tools and an SP1200 for good measure!).

Nice beat and a great sample although #geekyobservation...I think S1 might have just edged his flip of the same sample.

I was a bit slow on the jump and didn't realise I missed the first episode of the series which also showed the break down of another track from the same De La Soul x Nike Mixtape - Are You In; the joint "Forever", this ones also nice as he breaks down structuring sequences on the MP and using inbetween BPM's for swing.
