*Lyrics below* [Verse 1: 6LACK] You think I don't know when to call it quits How could I not know after all this here? I spent so much time tryna find a signal but It’s safe to say it's no good A nigga need to roll up [Pre-Chorus: 6LACK] No, I don't wanna piss you off No, I ain’t tryna make you yell Girl, why you wanna kick me outta my natural element? No, I don't wanna piss you off I ain't tryna make you yell Now why you wanna kick me outta my natural element? [Chorus: 6LACK] I'm tryna work it out But we got a disconnect I'm tryna work it out But we got a disconnect, hey [Verse 2: 6LACK] Love is not looking over shoulders Love is you should trust what I told you Lately it's like you been speaking fantasy and I'm speaking reality 'Cause we got problems we ain’t getting over I think we breaking up And not just on some boyfriend-girlfriend shit I think we had enough Like, I can’t hear you I'm falling out of love [Chorus: 6LACK] I’m tryna work it out But we got a disconnect I'm tryna work it out But we got a disconnect, hey [Verse 3: 6LACK] Love is not struggling to tell you "I love ya" Or you saying music's above ya I do this shit here 'cause I need I need you, but you couldn’t see, so I'm out here, listening to Monster Heartbreak sponsor, smoking on the ganja, yeah No, I don't have the time left to care, spare, or share [Bridge: 6LACK] You'da made Cupid aim away A bow and arrow could take the pain away You'da made Cupid aim away A bow and arrow could take the pain away [Pre-Chorus: 6LACK] But I don't wanna piss you off I ain't tryna make you yell Girl, why you wanna kick me out of my natural element? Girl, I don't wanna piss you off No, I ain't tryna make you yell Why you wanna kick me outta my natural element?
The mood, the sounds at the beginning, the lyrics, 6LACK’s voice and presence, COLORS’s production. Too much perfection in one video. Keep blessing us like this. Please.
I showed these videos to a friend who is trying to learn how to record music as examples of how to properly use a microphone for recording vocals. He spent hours disputing me and telling me that these weren't live takes. He was convinced that the vocals had to be done in a studio at a different time, and that the artists just came in and lip synced for the video. He now understands that's most likely not the case, but just another example of how good the engineers on this team are.
naw bruh, some are live, some are pre-recorded. This one is defnitly pre-recorded, his mouth is late on a couple occasions. Plus he uses a bunch of different filters. A real artist knows how important it is to always face the mic, the distance between your mouth and the mic etc. 6lack moving a lot, sometimes he ain't even in front of the mic. Sound would be affected a lot. Especially since those arent recording studio walls.
Nahh you can hear him breathing in between lines, it's recorded live and then mixed and mastered later. Obviously there are effects added in post production, but i am pretty sure 6lack recorded this live in 1 take
I agree that this was live. You can level out the parts where he turned away with some careful gain editing and compression. The tone can be slightly different when he turns away due to proximity effect but hes pretty far away from the mic in the first place so its probably not much of a factor to begin with. Maybe I'm just being naive and hoping these are live but i can justify this being a one take live performance (with a lot of post production editing) and not lip synced. Only the people behind the camera/mixing desk really know though I guess.
This song is so deeply connected to me. I ran into it when the girl I loved (still do) told me she could not be with me because we had no future together. Thank you for this song 6lack, and thank you COLORS for this. And thank all of you here in the comments section to share the appreciation for this piece of art.
Yo...im single AF!! and this man got me wanting to call SOMEBODY and tell them baby im sorry im not tryna fight no more...just give me a chance and let me show you why we were meant to be 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💜💜💜
*Lyrics below*
[Verse 1: 6LACK]
You think I don't know when to call it quits
How could I not know after all this here?
I spent so much time tryna find a signal but
It’s safe to say it's no good
A nigga need to roll up
[Pre-Chorus: 6LACK]
No, I don't wanna piss you off
No, I ain’t tryna make you yell
Girl, why you wanna kick me outta my natural element?
No, I don't wanna piss you off
I ain't tryna make you yell
Now why you wanna kick me outta my natural element?
[Chorus: 6LACK]
I'm tryna work it out
But we got a disconnect
I'm tryna work it out
But we got a disconnect, hey
[Verse 2: 6LACK]
Love is not looking over shoulders
Love is you should trust what I told you
Lately it's like you been speaking fantasy and I'm speaking reality
'Cause we got problems we ain’t getting over
I think we breaking up
And not just on some boyfriend-girlfriend shit
I think we had enough
Like, I can’t hear you
I'm falling out of love
[Chorus: 6LACK]
I’m tryna work it out
But we got a disconnect
I'm tryna work it out
But we got a disconnect, hey
[Verse 3: 6LACK]
Love is not struggling to tell you "I love ya"
Or you saying music's above ya
I do this shit here 'cause I need
I need you, but you couldn’t see, so
I'm out here, listening to Monster
Heartbreak sponsor, smoking on the ganja, yeah
No, I don't have the time left to care, spare, or share
[Bridge: 6LACK]
You'da made Cupid aim away
A bow and arrow could take the pain away
You'da made Cupid aim away
A bow and arrow could take the pain away
[Pre-Chorus: 6LACK]
But I don't wanna piss you off
I ain't tryna make you yell
Girl, why you wanna kick me out of my natural element?
Girl, I don't wanna piss you off
No, I ain't tryna make you yell
Why you wanna kick me outta my natural element?
Possible to upload these live sessions to Spotify?
Get J.I.D next please !
sounds more like "I think I need to roll" rather than 'A nigga need to roll up'
Yall got instagram?
How might one inquiry about doing a COLORS video with you? I’d love to get REXO KWOZO on there.
some say that microphone is hanging directly from heaven
😢❤❤
Still tryna figure out where that cord on the floor going 🤔🤔🤔
MooBerry2009 To the headphones lol
LOL
It has to be.
Dudes having a full on conversation with the mic. Eye contact with it was never lost.
That's a chick bro!
Lol, I never noticed until now..
He even gives it attitude. He's really talking to her in his head
Lmao!!
Except at least twice in the first 30 seconds lol
Someone give COLORS the award for "channel of the year" right now!
of the decade
this channel fire
it's between colors and NPR tiny desk rn tbh lol
Tru bru
Deadassssss
Who ever the engineer is he/she needs a round of applause for the way they mixed the adlibs on this. Absolutely phenomenal
urbanr3volution culture i agree
urbanr3volution culture ruclips.net/video/iAKwis4ImNA/видео.html
DEFINITELY
urbanr3volution culture yeah you got a point. Does anyone know what kind of mic that is?
Wdym?
Somehow i always come back to this
back for like the 100th time
Same here.💖💋💖💋💖
And 5 Years Later, I'm still here
The mood, the sounds at the beginning, the lyrics, 6LACK’s voice and presence, COLORS’s production.
Too much perfection in one video.
Keep blessing us like this. Please.
Lou Guardini strongly agree with it
Its 2AM right now and we're having light showers of rain. I know right? What a way to treat myself. Thank you COLORS
Got wild goosebumps from this video
V
Lou Guardini a fat agree
Whoever mixes and masters the vocals on this channel is lowkey the real MVP. Live performance, album quality audio. Amazing yet again

This is lip synced sadly unlike most others

Coincidence? I think not
And these two are literally my favorite out of all the colours artists
Fax

This guy is so talented, love his music so much
my heart smiled
When he said "Lately it's like you been speaking fantasy and I'm speaking reality cuz we got problems we ain't gett'n ova" I felt that
Word
"You'da made Cupid aim away
A bow and arrow could take the pain away"
Oh my God...

This is why I love COLORS, they pick the most beautiful songs from the artists album. Instead of their most popular
Know for a fact its pronounced black
My Brain still: sixlack
Slack
Ohh , I though it was 6 black for a year now FUCK
It'll always be "six-lack" in my eyes, I don't care if I'm standing right beside him.
I thought it was glack.... 6 is a G...
@@andjarinkgustilasessio nah 9 is a g
Hes sadly describing my life right now. For real.
This song gets me in my feelings HARD, if I'm listening to this in public I'm 100% going to tear up/cry.
We need to have Frank Ocean in COLORS as well. Who agrees?
Den den den Yes
If only he would come out of hiding
Novacaine?
I mean do we even deserve it tho
Swim good ?
I wanna hug this guy! Love from Argentina!

Just yesterday I was literally thinking "why doesn't 6LACK have a COLORS show?", wow
Literally been listening to this album since it came out and then once i got the notification on Twitter i was over the moon
Some people are just born with a singing voice. No effort whatsoever.
KNOWLEDGE APPLIED IS WISDOM! BLESS YOU
I was completely transfixed watching this. So calm, motionless, just pouring his heart into the mic. Beautiful.
I literally loved every single second of that !!! 😍😍 Every was so perfect.
Immediately stopped everything I was doing when I saw that notification pop up, especially if 6LACK's on this.
*Amazing performance, this has me even more hyped for his London show next month!!*
