"What's the Worst Music Industry Advice I've Ever Gotten?" 

@ConductorWilliams Bro, Keep inspiring us little guys man! I can relate to you on so many levels you spoke on!

Man I’m so glad that I found his channel this dude needs to be protected at all cost

4:36 that beat should be called modern-day wild wild west

Peace Conductor ✌🏾🚂🚂🚂🚂 happy Father’s Day

I met some rappers that thought I was stupid for learning to count bars.

Thank you for sharing your experiences. Quitting is not an option, stick to your craft/tool.

i have to watch each video twice cuz first time around i just be head nodding to the beats 😂

One of the best and most honest videos ive ever seen. So inspired right now by this era that is from another era that is THE era pushing through. Big up brother! 💪🏾✊🏾

Thanks for making this video. Also, shoutout to Yussef Dayes and Dead End Hip Hop!

Love it.. your advice, energy and inspiration is priceless✨️🙌🏾🙏🏾💜

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I’m inspired!! 🙏🏾 that beat!!! Is crazy!!!

you should drop these on a dvd bob ross style the level of insight into your proceess and art in general is invaluable and will help many as they continue to find you as always peace CONDUCTOR CONDUCTOR

Not only do you make dope beats, but you watch the best TV show of all time on a CRT TV. I feel like New York Undercover is about to come on 😂 Discovered you through Griselda and Mach Hommy and instantly loved your style. Keep doing your thing!

Gratitude. Ps Peace to Basquiat (Samo) and Thomas Ford (from Martin)

much RESPECT! thank you for posting

Peace to the bro Conductor

🔥🔥🔥

CONDUCTOR CONDUCTOR

What song is that!?!!? Beat is crazy!!!

#Salute Bro!

In my 30s I was obssessed with the idea of "making it" with my music. I stopped doing it because I enjoyed it and just started spamming emcees with beats. Managed to get a couple of beats with an artist who was on Stones Throw at the time and produced most of an album for a well known, underground UK emcee. Thought that was gonna be it. And then...nothing. Nothing. Music came out, comments on the tracks were all about the emcee, hardly anybody mentioned the producer (me), and nobody else approached me asking for beats. I got down, really down and ended up giving up on it. Few other things happened, got married, had kids and beats were fogetten. Recently started producing again but I don't post anything anymore. It's just for me now, for the process.

Don't see many established producers give it up like this. Thats why you winning glad all the hard work paid off for you looking forward to new music

conductor you are the goat bro fr

“CONDUCTOR WE HAVE A PROBLEM” Best producer tag and you can’t change my mind. Much love conductor williams, you are part of the best collective of artists from the last 10 years GRISELDA RECORDS.

I can relate to this. Finding yourself as a producer is so important. Staying true to who you are as creative. Salute 🫡

You are VERY inspiring, man. Thank you so much for posting this kinda content. Abundant gems 💎

Love the shoutout to DeadEndHiphop, great channel

Man you really doing it, you building a community that rlly loves you and what you stand for/represent. The utmost respect 🙏🏼

Conductor always watching Martin 🤣🤣 salut

as a young producer I really look up to you, you're a big inspiration to me🙏🏽

can't overlook or overstate how these videos are as much of an art form as making beats, and seeing you come into your own in developing your youtube style is just as inspiring as the stories you tell within the music. keep that train rolling!!! 🚂🚂🚂

Any advice that revolves around money as it pertains to the creative product will never be good advice

Reason is great for sample bassed Hiphop to be honest anyone who thinks it's for EDM only is a idiot, I have made every style of beat using Reason including sample bassed Boombap.

Worst advice = “equipment doesn’t matter” This is gaslighting that will easily shave a decade off of your life/development if u take it seriously. Save up 15-20k and get decent quality gear and train ur ears on decent monitors etc. The trial and error is gna b 10x worse on trash $200 monitors and a $100 interface and essentially it’ll start to crush your spirit and make u feel as if you’re failing when ultimately, nobody who u want to sound like is using anything less than like 50k worth of gear… Disclaimer: if ur reading this and ur about to comment and argue w me, ur only doing it because ur cheap and not dedicated enough, u’d rather spend ur money on takeout, haircuts, girls and sneakers 👍 God bless!

Listen to your body. Talk to plants. Ignore people.

Now I think about it, your style of beats your voice and articulated knowledge.. Throw a mask on and start spitting on your shii fam this I guarantee you will be that villain.

Dope video Great advice until the next one 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

smoke break is much needed

Incredible beat, you’re a monster I’m so glad I found this channel, im 26 been making beats since I was 16, I’m just a fan of the craft and the ones who really love it

just so yk you have my favorite producer tag of all time like sometimes i listen to griselda just to hear that and not the actual song ☠️

Thanks for sharing the importance of finding identity

Salute.

amazing advice still trying to figure out my sound but i’m gonna follow my gut more often

I started producing around 2014-15 & took it very seriously until about 2019 when I decided I wanted to switch industries. Fast forward to present day, I am coming back to production & just bought an MPC Key (just shipped!). So finding this video just gave me so much inspiration.. thank you. - just wanna say I found you're sound through Griselda & couldn't be more thankful. You're RU-vid channel alone is a blessing in disguise. Much love CONDUCTOR WE HAVE A PROBLEM

i'll cut the monologues one after the other as an audiobook...a smokebreak smokebreak for my mind

When can we get a beat page from you I would love to hear what you have in the stash

Hey yo, would love to get your influences from other art forms. I saw a M*A*S*H VHS tape on your desk and would be keen to hear about TV/Cinema that really thrills you? Recently discovered Gordon Park's 1969 movie 'Learning Tree' which is set in Kansas and thought of you!

My guy said DEHH, you real af for that man. These videos mad inspiring love from Ireland

Conductor we have a problem... conductor you have a solution

Wow! Thank you for the encouragement brother! Great video.

just nasty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drums💥💥💥💥💥💥💥bang

Thanks for always sharing your insight and wisdom with us. The music community is in such a positive place thanks to you.

Fam Blow 4 Blow from kiss the ring 🤲🏽😤

Hell yeah. I appreciate how real you are. Love these videos.

Wow frfr, identity is a major key to great music. I was in the kenny beats beat battles and I kept making beats the way I liked, placed top ten 3 times, kenny didn’t like it, but I kept making it, then a year later someone from the kenny beats discord hit me up completely fanning over the beats I made, and one particular beat in general he wanted me to send it to him. That particular experience completely changed how I view my listeners and helped me realize should make beats how I like ‘em.

this some real shit sir. Ty for your content, loved your merch

Yussef dayes and karriem for inspiration on drums. Makes sense now 😅

Conductor! We have a problem! We have a madman hanging off the side of the train like Batman && Robin! Except he’s a rat, Dressed in all black and he’s talking, But anyone that hears him speak jumps out the cart, this foods no longer an option, No, somber feelings, feeling darker than the Lorcin, Third-party, double barrel, one spark it hit the wheel with the will of my heart, We’ll, up && heart ya, for what you’re owin’, skip the bark! For that mystery the machine drive you and your crew into the lake, where I released the sharks, Where I feel at ease, no somber feelings I’m feeling light as I watch the headlights disappear like Clark, Take my march to D.C, it’s December end up there by March, Clock tower, high, water tower then I set up arcs, Beretta point out marks, marks appointment, 10:00 Am sharp, D.A.R.P.A gonna have a hard time making the bars connect but we are division through art && death, Hard like codes, smooth surface no cracks I’m the only Artist left

Happy Fathers Day Fam keep droppin them jewels

thank you love you

It's a long road and even if we don't travel far our feet still get dusty.

You got to have fun, music is subjective.

Can’t believe you have this channel, artists of your caliber are so valuable. You’re the first person out here when you talk about producing I completely get you it makes sense. You speak my language. Thanks for the inspiration

Damn son..Missourian showin and prooving..

Not really the point of the video but shout out to DEHH

Started in 2008 and didn't get a break until 2018...Bro that makes me keep grinding🔥🔥🔥 I'm on a similar journey, I hadn't got my break...but it's coming one day soon.

I’m a huge fan of your work! Salute.

I needed to see this!…just started my music journey 4:26 full time ….keep going hard!….work with you soon! 🤘🏾

Peace - Boulevard got some nice beers. Not everything is for everyone.... some people, maybe a lot might not like your beats, that does not mean you need to change. Just means you are not for everyone and probably doing it right to be honest.

Feel like Wu-tang type beats! 💪🏽

Dope! 🎶🎶🎶🎶

Is there any way I could send sample chops to you ?

Thanks for sharing! Powerful advice!! BoomBap will never die !

🔥🔥🔥

Yo the old tube in the back is a tell tale sign of greatness… Salute Conductor 💪🏾💯

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Much love, and I appreciate the pure energy. As a person that used to make beats, I gave it up based on the same things you just addressed, to only find out 10 years later people like this style. I wish you the best, and keep doing what you love. I will start making it beats again after hearing your craft!!!

First of all Salute to you having Martin on the TV.. I STILL watch this show.. lol

Thx for your words 🖖🏽🙏🏽, and what’s up with those 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥beats who’s rapping on those ?!?!

Such an inspiration!! Def know what u mean regarding identity. Was at a Rome Streetz concert few weeks ago, everyone was chanting "CONDUCTOR, CONDUCTOR..." Onwards and upwards from here!!!

The people in the industry almost destroyed my love....glad my love perservered...now i do it for the love...and whatever happens...happens.

This is my DUDE!!! Nothing but inspiration. Being yourself and doing what you love is true success!

I hear artists tell me "i cant use beats with samples" how'd you work around or through that

Crazy how ive found conductor at this time in my life Im on a mad spiritual journey and my guy talking like this is a blessing for me 👊🏽 love from 🇬🇧

they told me to buy protools damnnnn

Bro this content is worldclass

I like your production style. You have some 🔥. The LB joint is super dope and would love to see you work more with them. I still use an old mpc 2500 and don’t plan on changing. Managing family and work as well as other hobbies leave me little time to produce. Be blessed.

Conductor, you are such a vibe bro. You make me appreciate my own personal skillset and ear for music. My shit is niche af, and a lot of people dont like it, but the ones who do love it. Thats what its all about. Thank you for sharing all your insight.

Man, that video was so crucial... I'm at this point in which it feels like it's impossible to make money with the music I like/make. But if the alternative is making bland commercial songs, I'll rather do something else...

great vid as always but can we talk about that shit you were jus working on?? DUMMY FIRE 🔥

I felt like you were talking to me directly. Thank you for your honesty and vulnerable story, I'm glad I found this channel.

Conductor we have a problem! Mayne I hope one day you get to make an OST for a film and thank you for the content fr. Discovered you thru Griselda your one of my favourite producers and you deserve your flowers

Yooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.......broooo........bro.........big homie that 1st one has to come with a neck brace 😮 BTW happy father's day fam🤙🏾

I love the philosophy of this channel. I just subscribed. been making music since 97 used to run a mpc 2000 xl and ran my synths and drum machines through it. quit when i had my kids, came back to it in 2013 and went on to make some records and play summer festivals prior to covid. I got back into making tunes with ableton live, love the format but i miss the mpc in so many ways. this channel reminded me why i enjoyed using the mpc as a sampler. even just to build ideas away from the computer. just the fun of it. Im looking into picking up an mpc one for couch sessions, or sitting outside on the deck or when traveling. i Produce funk, soul, disco vibes, french house and drum and bass grew up on hip hop, and my moms old soul/ motown records and my dads classic rock records. electronic music got me into funk, jazz, and disco. what i love about sampled based music is it teaches us about the past, and eventually we want to learn from those who created these sounds . sampled based music will always get the listener to dig deeper and find where the sounds came from, then they end up listening to that older music alongside the music they may have heard it first sampled. I love that. the new pays homage to the old and allows growth and inspiration to the new. as a musician i tend to stay away from sampling more so these days so that i don't have to clear samples. But that doesn't mean i don't still dig crates , and sample for the love of it. for the learning from the old masters. I always tell people that even as a musician sampling is a great way to learn, because when you sample and add a synth line, or a guitar to that sample or drumming or what ever one plays its like jamming with people. like taking a time machine and getting to play along with great artists, learning from them and taking that lesson and growing as a musician. Just found your channel today. watched a bunch of videos and feel inspired. thanks for doing what you do, and sharing your chill philosophy and vibes. from one musician to another Much love

aye CONDUCTOR!🗣️🗣️

Damn Man!! fo real, take you so much for share wisdom. I like see my growth musicalized by Conductor Williams. Salute and God Bless.
