Mr Lovine, I just purchased my first Beats headphones. After years of using Apple ear buds. My ears can’t wait to hear a new world in music from Beats. Being a musician singer and mix engineer. I will receive them in two days. Now I can’t wait to put them on and hear a vision of music. Thanks for sharing your story. Keep on Rocking the future of sounds.
@iDiggMGL oh,just sayin :D, good over the ear ones are skullcandy headcrushers! seriously they are amazing the bass is awesome and it literally like vibrates ur head from the amplifier in it :)
What does Kevin mean when he keeps mentioning the sucky laptops, is it the crappy small speakers? because I'm on my laptop, but connected in the jack is BEATS :D
Dre NEVER talks. It's amazing to think how Hip Hop basically jumpstarted the iTunes and iPod industries, along with the new wave of headphones (Beats By Dre).
yes. Beats are fun to use. Did try. Especially the bass vibrate part. But they are not worth the price for it tends to get muddy. And brands like sennheisers and akg and so on are better to be honest. Ppl here believed Dre really designed the headphones professionally but dun you know a thing called "gimmick"? And surely the artists who wear beats are paid for doing so. Its a placebo effect which a lot of ppl fall into
As an engineer I can tell you stick to the same popular headsets the public uses. Mix using more that one brand and find a good mix that fits the mass produced crap. Skull candy ear buds can be your friend believe it or not. Just sayin.

@rumbumbalow i went into best buy 2 monthz ago with 100 bucks fer headphones i opened n tryed every pair i wnted in there **good cutomer service** i tryed every sony,senhiser er w/e headphones n they said they were "Monitor headphones" so they didnt soound good on my ipod then i tryed skullcandy TiTANS and they blew my ears out with base fer only 50 bucks ^_^
Ive got a pair of studio beats for $250, tested the bose competitors and can honestly say the quality on the beats is equal, if not better, and they look far nicer. the beats leak sound like a bitch though, if you're using them out and about, get the bose, use at home get the beats
Okay, so basically, in an open-minded enough nutshell, the gradual life of the beats was a product made by once rich, now financially FUCKED record label execs crawling on the floor towards anything they see fit to resurrect their once surplussing bank accounts. His whole story blatantly demonstrates a desperation talking about all the times where he's thinking, "Gosh, we're in trouble"..Just a testament of how overpriced these are. They're probably thinking, with every consumer who buys a pair of Beats where they gain at LEAST a ridiculous $250 in correlation with the cost of producing the headphones, "This is for napster, and piratebay, and the fact that musicians only make money by playing live these days. This is payback, you audibly naive torrenting idiots."
@iDiggMGL i got the ldy gaga ones fer 100,( yea i kno ldy gaga) put em in turned em on n they scuked! lmao brought em back put in some titans n they actully had bass nsounded way better to be,saved 60 bucks n bought MW2
I'm sorry but if Jimmy really cared about music then he would go out and admit that the beats don't provide the best sound quality for the price. All my friends have beats and I was prepared to buy them too but then I found out about the ATH-M50s and let me tell you: They sound alot better for almost half the price of the beats studios. The beats sound like they have a veil over them. It saddens me that people think the beats are the greatest headphones ever because every celebrity wears them.
While I do own Beats, I have to say the sound is mediocore. I own Bose in earphones and they sound much better. The sound on the Beats are too muffled and my Bose provide a much greater bass.
@iDiggMGL NOOOO!!!! dont get the gagas!!!!!those were the sme ones i bought!!!!! they suck!! trust me! i just had em last week fer only a day n took em back just trust me, i reccomend any skullcanys over atleast 30 bucks or try the bose in ears i hear they are really good XD
Beats has only put out 2 products, since leaving monster, the beats pill and pill xl. Every other product beats has put out was a creation of monster !! no other audio company would work with beats, because they had made a name for themselves, for working with companies and then stealing their ideas. they did this with monster, and HTC. This is why, Apple wanted to BUY and OWN beats, rather then just be majority share holder. But since monster, Beats has simply taken monsters same headphones and creation, using the same monster drivers, cables and design, and they simply made them out of better quality plastic, and tuned them to sound a little better, but other then that, they are still selling monster headphones, even though beats is an independant company, and no longer affiliated with monster, beats simply makes their headphones with all monsters technology, sound signature, design, and cables ect...
I'm yet to understand something...plugging in decent monitors or headphones into a crappy soundcard won't greatly improve the audio quality, because the SOURCE is the problem. Couple that with all these low-bit mp3 running around... Placebo bullshit. Good speakers can only help so much when the sources are the main problem. This dude must think I'm a fuckin idiot. Selling me this overpriced shit!
People think that Lady Gaga is the New Big Thing. What does that tell you about America? What a joke. Where is Paul Westerberg, and Bob Mould, Paul Weller, and Pete Shelly when we need them ?
Beats by Dre are way too overpriced for what they offer. Sony, Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, Audiotechnica, AKG all offer better quality for more reasonable prices. I understand business is all about profits, but good grief, business people are responsible for a lot of the economic and societal problems to the masses by overfeeding their own pockets. It's sickening!

@emmey57 You talk shit about mainstream artists as if they represent a genre as a whole. Coming from someone who both raps and does metal vocals and has written over 130 songs in the last year in both genres I'd suggest you expand your mind and artist knowledge before you insult thousands of people based on 4.
if i had the chance to meet this man and show him my music I feel like he would be astounded.
I love love my beat studios 3's so much.

That's an amazing conversation.
Why s the audio level of this video so low! Ironic that this piece has subpar audio LOL!
plug in your beats
Apple/beats stragetic move 😂😂
The 2023 Beats Studio Pro are the pinnacle of Beats 🎧 perfectly balanced with style & sound.
nice work 👌🔥 💯
I love my beats solo 3
Interesting! I'm not even in the music business but loads of transnational lessons from Jimmy Levine on how to do business! Thanks for sharing

This is great! Better sound for all!! Rip your CD's in .wav or Apple Lossless, too!

very thoughtful...
Beats decade bby!! Studios
Beats used to not sound all that great, but the sound is So much better now!! I love my Beats Studio!!
Cool ! Let’s Listen To These Funky Beats
sound is colors to me. When I create music, it makes me see phenomenal things.
omg its 2019 this is weird watching this
👊 This future 👊
This is why you bypass the soundcard through USB to an external DAC/Amp and have those run to headphones worthy of a purchase.
I feel like this is recorded in 2005
The Sound and the spirit is a major part of an artist. Jimmy your describing me. All Day!! I AM UNIQUE:)
@iDiggMGL oh,just sayin :D, good over the ear ones are skullcandy headcrushers! seriously they are amazing the bass is awesome and it literally like vibrates ur head from the amplifier in it :)
SOUND REALLY MATTERS IN MUSIC
... as long as it is, this video is worth watching.
Lol 10 years ago
Wasn't expecting that
Of course 😊
Wow That was a lot of info to digest. Are beats wraparound the ears headphones. or are they high tech earbuds?
"She confused me so much I signed her" LOL!
Sorry Jimmy for the misspelled word " I Meant i will reach you first cause u the man. Jimmy got mad one liners like a rapper.
Um 2021 any one
Damn need new pair of headphones. I got two choices. 1) Beats tour w/ controltalk. 2) Sennheiser hd 438.
Thanks.
this is truly one great story. i love it!
regardless he's spot on and Sound Does Matters ("
This makes me wanna buy more beats.
Audio must have been improved as it sounds pretty good now.
... as long as it is, this video is worth watching. Thanks Jimmy Iovine! Great talk.
GAGA LIKED THIS VIDEO!
hey jimmy......you signed gaga, but werent you gonna drop her?... ah your soo involved and innovative.
What does Kevin mean when he keeps mentioning the sucky laptops, is it the crappy small speakers? because I'm on my laptop, but connected in the jack is BEATS :D

facts 💯
dre
first video
Its all about the Ultrasone Edition 8s, fuck the beats!
who is here in 2021?
Beats on cars would be great
I bought them from Best Buy dude.... and yes I'm pretty sure the store was real 2.
★★★★★
Yo
yes. Beats are fun to use. Did try. Especially the bass vibrate part. But they are not worth the price for it tends to get muddy. And brands like sennheisers and akg and so on are better to be honest.

SWAG quality, rofl
@Kanashto It's your crappy soundcard too. Your headphones are only as good as what you plug them into.
first guy in vid looks like Tony G the poker player.
this dude started in the mailroom so to speak
LOL Drew was jealous of 50s fashion snickers snickers dead lol
I don't understand why people who hate beats watch the videos.
LOL Dre was jealous of 50's sneaker deal LOL
When he mention nobody cares about sneaker *insert mj sipping his tea 😂😂
When he misses his no one cares about sneakers it mean snipping 60

@FuckingStanz interesting thanks
30:04 I asked a simple question. I didnt ask for your life story..."
@iDiggMGL also, do NOT by any "ultimate ears" products....they suck,only buy koss,bose,skullcandy,maxxell M&M headphones
Beats for Artists if ur not one keep off
Brings about alot of interesting points.
Always speaking the truth, good stuff Jimmy.
Ive got a pair of studio beats for $250, tested the bose competitors and can honestly say the quality on the beats is equal, if not better, and they look far nicer. the beats leak sound like a bitch though, if you're using them out and about, get the bose, use at home get the beats
Although I agree with him about audio, his artistic awareness is... Lady Gaga? Lmfao.
Dude reminds me of Larry David.

lmao
@bigbanana1st "Dre wouldn't lie about sound" LMFAO
the sound quality of this vid makes my beats studio's sound like pure crap.
Nice ring. Why isn't it on the pinky finger?
@bored02030405 ....not if they are the HIGH priced ones, not the shitty ones
I don't think that's possible bro
@iDiggMGL i got the ldy gaga ones fer 100,( yea i kno ldy gaga) put em in turned em on n they scuked! lmao brought em back put in some titans n they actully had bass nsounded way better to be,saved 60 bucks n bought MW2

macklemore is correct on jimmy iovine
Jimmy Get @ me i got a great idea,I reach u first problem

my headphones cost much more than beats and i still hate beats, so dont say that.
While I do own Beats, I have to say the sound is mediocore. I own Bose in earphones and they sound much better. The sound on the Beats are too muffled and my Bose provide a much greater bass.
Are u still alive?
Kinda ironic how the sound quality on this video sucks...
@kanSr06 ...yea that robbed some people like you with fake ones.
@iDiggMGL NOOOO!!!! dont get the gagas!!!!!those were the sme ones i bought!!!!! they suck!! trust me! i just had em last week fer only a day n took em back just trust me, i reccomend any skullcanys over atleast 30 bucks or try the bose in ears i hear they are really good XD
@wisconsinskater09 skull candy? tell me that was a gag to trick someone on here. skullcandies are awful.
Haters gunna hate but there just made they can't afford beats

no, shut up, I bought 2 of them and they suck and broke in 2 weeks. I currently now have headphones almost half the price that sound 2 times better.
the sound is too low in this video
I'm yet to understand something...plugging in decent monitors or headphones into a crappy soundcard won't greatly improve the audio quality, because the SOURCE is the problem. Couple that with all these low-bit mp3 running around...
Placebo bullshit. Good speakers can only help so much when the sources are the main problem. This dude must think I'm a fuckin idiot. Selling me this overpriced shit!
So this is the jimmy iovine guy all these black rappers work for? hmmmm
Beats arent crap? theres headphones under $200 that sound better then even the $400 dollar beats pro. Check out the ATH-M50.
People think that Lady Gaga is the New Big Thing. What does that tell you about America? What a joke. Where is Paul Westerberg, and Bob Mould, Paul Weller, and Pete Shelly when we need them ?
@freebuddy321 its true sennheiser but bayerdynamic are better not this shi.t of piece the called beats.
cheers from germany
Beats by Dre are way too overpriced for what they offer. Sony, Sennheiser, Beyerdynamic, Audiotechnica, AKG all offer better quality for more reasonable prices. I understand business is all about profits, but good grief, business people are responsible for a lot of the economic and societal problems to the masses by overfeeding their own pockets. It's sickening!

Beats headphones suck. My Samsung headphones sound better
