Honestly I don't either. I mean I'm mesmerized by watching any aspect of music actually happening but, whenever the camera is on most producers go into this shell mode as if they're scared or sum. it's actually rare that u find a video where the producer doesn't know he's being recorded or he's simply unaffected or....
other issue is almost 90% of the producers are just whack as fuck. untalented, weak, plain, unseasoned, nothing interesting to watch. fuck, I can barely listen to their end results, let alone watch them cook that garbage. mostly just making noise and Especially when the cam is on, they just hide behind their drum machines and play like 50 hundred kicks per bar and everyone goes "WOOOOO" n shit. restarted ass.
I remember seeing this zaytoven freestyle video, bro legit folded and started playing random ass arpeggios the whole time. same with swizz, same with almost every other producer. mfs just fold. pharrell is usually cool tho (usually he pre-does his thief business behind the camera like any other genius). tyler isn't awful either as far as I've seen.
but yee that's why when storch is in there I can't help but watch. bro just comes up with some shit on the spot that I can't think of if I think about it for years. the same 88 keys is infront of me all day everyday and I can barely get close to his throwaway level. that shit is fucking ridiculous. as with dre or ye, it's more about how they make the most of their collaborations n how they maintain the main vision the whole time that keeps me in. like on mbdtf u got mike dean n bhasker and no i.d. n bout 50 diff producers n writers and the entire thing ends up sounding so concretely connected in it's own maximalist way. or in chronic/early aftermath projects you see elizondo, storch, eminem, erryone workin towards a result that's always consistent, solid, minimalistic and you just know dre got this shit together.
