[darcy19940]

baaaaaaaaaaaad

[AlexTheUniversal]

You is tha real bro...

[emohkay]

that ish was dope

[patologyFinestChild]

this is crazy! amazing!

[MajesticKG]

This is great.

[Technicaldeathstrike]

u da real

[frostyicy]

Of course the guy wasn't really playing that at :48s he left the piano and the music was still playing.

[Brugality]

thats cuz the video and audio are out of sync u stupid fuck

[frostyicy]

No you idiot you can clearly hear click like he turned some device on at the beginning before he even starts playin. Also how is the audio and video perfect the entire time until the end??? What the eyes see and the ears hear the mind believes. He has you fooled you dumb bitch!!

[Brugality]

The click is the camera fuck face. And the audio/video begin to lose sync around the :25 second mark. Pay attention you botched abortion, and you won't look so fucking stupid in the future. I play piano and he hit all the notes. What's the point of faking when you actually know what you're doing. Now go play in traffic.

[frostyicy]

Shut the fuck up I'm not about to argue over the internet about dumb shit. I don't give a shit if you play the piano or not, I know you like suckin other men's dick's too so does that mean you know how every man's cum tastes??? You probably do you lil pussy boy. Don't say shit else to me bitch!!! I will not respond!!!

[Brugality]

Translation: "OMG, you totally fucking OWNED me and made me look like a babboon on the Internet for the world to see. I know I'm a stupid fuck and competely made a fool out of myself, but instead of acknowledging it, I'll try to insult you before running away like a scared bitch and never coming back to respond. I'm a pusssy, and a dumb fuck, and I don't know my head from my ass or what the fuck I'm talking about."

[frostyicy]

Ha ha ha. You are so damn lame!!!Ha ha ha. That sarcasm was wack too!!! SMH.

[Brugality]

I LOVE when people say "this is my last post" yet they get bitch slapped so fucking bad, and have their ego so bruised that they just HAVE to post again. How bad is your nose bleeding after being a made a utter fucking asshole out of by ME?? You don't even know an audio/video sync issue when you see one, and don't know a single note on the piano yet u still came on here in front of millions of youtubers and make a complete FUCKTARD out of yourself. I own you. Forever.

[bigbenIII]

the music still plays until he leave the pedal (think this is the name of the part of the piano)...the first time i see this video i also thought like you, but if you follow the right hand during the play and at the end you look the right leg you can see that he's really playing it...peace!

[DandTproductions]

amazing wish i adh this tallent

[oplzimso1337]

the original piece is called g arden of peace by lonnie smith, Skibeatz sampled that piece of music to make dead presidents

great job

[ilmatic35]

Bro that is tight.....

[thizhypy3000]

classic

peaceful melody

[OGLOCDOG]

classic

[KILLAKINLAW459]

you should search lonnie smith - garden of peace. thats where jayz got the sample from

[1Koli]

Very well!

[clue555]

dat waz nasty

[gthug32]

please make a tutorial i want to learn

[snookumwookums]

This reminds me of the Mary J blidge song "Take Me As I Am" which is new so yea she probably copied from this....is that how you spell her name by the way? eh. well that was really nice.

[chocho296]

Yeah thats what i was looking for. Thanx

[shaka1706]

that was really good son thats my fave song

[MissYazi]

...Very welled played

[chocho296]

dont let haterz get you down man!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chocho296]

your are actually god mate. Does anybody know where i can get the jay z - dead presidents intro

[scribecity]

this original song, the one that was sampled for Dead Presidents II, that is being played on the piano is called Garden of Peace - Lonnie Liston Smith. you can youtube it and it will come up. hope this is what you want.

[D0USMOKEHAZE]

thats nasty,,keep it up

[egyptiancoach]

its not a fake, if you know piano, then you know it aint fake...goodjob man, keep up the good work!

[Durtysoufnicca]

I think that could be the best music in a rap song ever.

[crayyawn]

ski beatz is such a sick producer. made this and feelin it, two crazy tracks on reasonable doubt

[Durtysoufnicca]

the bass sounds the same in that song too

[RazLDNTV]

just a note.......Ski beatz only laid down the drumz on this. The sample was taken frm Lonnie Liston Smith's "Garden of Peace".

[crayyawn]

right its a sample, but its his beat

[RazLDNTV]

as much as i love hip-hop, i dnt give full credit of a track to its producer when a sample is involved

[crayyawn]

then u dont love hip hop very much. hip hop is sampling, sorry buddy

[initialdeemo]

i'm a hip hop producer and when i sample i dont take any credit for the music, especially if its a loop, i take a small amount of credit for finding and choosing the sample tho.

[crayyawn]

well if u dont flip it i understand arguements about sampling, but this is too perfect of a sample to be flipped, sometimes its just perfect as it is. cant hate on a guy for doing hip hop, cmon now

[lvngdead]

Sampling only becomes an issue when you trynna make money off your music instead of doing it for pure hip hop love.

[r2d2gz]

Amen to that!

[tonemakervoice]

lol. stop the presses. this guy is onto something. from now on, just credit any sampling producer as a "guy who didnt do anything" lol at this fool

[souldrudaddy]

you couldn't duplicate the beat so don't hate, if he didn't do anything it should be easy to duplicate right but you can't so what does that mean

[djrodney13]

everything about the dead presidents track is sampled. the piano and bass line was sampled from the lonnie record and the kick and snare was sampled from ATCQ remix Oh My God. this is one of the sickest tracks ever made. bottom line, purist can call it what they want but ski beatz is a producer. sampling is an art form.

[YuKantSeaMe]

i think Ski flipped the sample with a filter to create the bass line...i might be wrong though

[syse07]

yea high pass filter

[ang00sE]

low pass i thought...?

[coolieos32]

yeah its a low pass lol

[Daboylarry]

low pitch, low pass duhhhhh!

[dsbounce]

No doubt man. Couldn't have said it better myself.

[hewenthatway]

@djrodney13 couldnt have said it better myself. Sampling takes great taste in music, and when a song is sampled in a produced instrumental, its a tribute to the artist that made the original.

[kandola12]

that looks so fake cuz hes not we corrdinated

[8394147]

Sync it better. But good job. The original sample by Lonnie Liston Smith is beautiful. "A Garden Of Peace."

[sup3man]

ITS FAKE JUST WATCH THE END

[swoup]

its just bad upload audio dosent match the video happens alot

[ITS2ECBLOGSPOT]

Im not one for posting a comment but seeing this I felt compelled to tell you how funky fresh dope(80's Baby) this shit is.

[CR00K]

[POWERSPEAKER]

[CR00K]

[morphlong]

oh! I was thinking that but it was really far off. I love this video !

[Sabachtani]

That's because the sound is not synchronized w/ the video. the video is going at a different rate/place than the sound

[morphlong]

This looks fake for some odd reason!?

[tmacisnumber1]

this is tyte pleez make a tutorial man pleeazz

[CR00K]

I really want to know how to play this.

[DStyles2345]

Jay-Z also sampled Halftime in vol. 1 but man who gives a shit about the beef they're cool now and both have dope music.

[yeaboyyeaboy]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PLEASE MAKE A TUTORIAL IF ONLY FOR LIKE 5 mins cmon

[Streetspoet]

Lonnie Liston Smith's "A Garden of Peace" is the original song. It was sampled by Ski for Jay-Z's track, Dead Presidents II. It doesn't sample Nas, except the vocal snippet.

[sfj15]

he did sample NaS did you not here there diss tracks ETHER or TAKEOVER?

[Streetspoet]

Can you not read?

And I quote my previous post "It doesn't sample Nas, EXCEPT the vocal snippet."

"I count off when you sample my voice" - Nas

Key word...VOICE.

[sfj15]

Jay-Z said on the takeover you made it a hot line i made it a hot song either way there both classics

[caljatti]

So beautiful!

[designschema]

Im gonna have someone play that at my wedding

[coose08]

[mcandy24]

[streetstruck]

[doneice88]

[fuckbush16]

what song did jay z rip this from?

[sexycouture314]

Nas' dead presidents

[8394147]

Um? Nas doesn't have a song called Dead President, dipshit. Jay-Z's song is called Dead Presidents and it samples Nas' voice from The World Is Yours. The piano is from the Lonnie Liston Smith song A Garden Of Peace.

[justblazin305]
