Talib is a top 5 MC, yet nobody gives him the respect he deserves. I remember bumping this CD on repeat in high school. Talib holds it down for true hip-hop!
If I could rap, I'd want to rap like Kweli. Oh well, I can enjoy their music all the same. Its a shame all Hip Hop can't be even half as good as Kweli plus Def, Common and Nas
Just Blaze always been one of my favorite producers. He always had some hard hip hop beats but at the same time he knew how to put some soul into the music too. Can’t too many producers do that.
this is actually a pretty simple sample i think its only one loop then he chopped the ooo ooo part so it could just keep going over and over like he did with the what we do sample for jay z and beans.
This song is so beautiful it reminds me of me and my baby girl man like she's so beautiful and when I layed eyes on her I feel deeply in love like I never felt before and I want to spend my whole rest of my life with her and have our own beautiful family
this is the song that introduced me to Kweli. One of the first cd's I bought at 17 when I got my first job too. been a die hard ever since and that album introduced me to Jean Grae... not a regret
Songs like this made me😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 real tears.....I was the only hip hopper in my crew....and I didnt care...this how rap should always be....shoutout to just blaze...producers dont get enough credit for the great feels WE😉 give ppl💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Went to his show in Lisbon yesterday, this dude really did a 1 hour set of amazing songs and then as Dj for the remaining 4 hours, from MD, K dot, MF DOOM, vibin to J Dilla... Truly you could feel his passion and talent, great artist and human being 💜🇦🇪
damn only 600,000 views?? this mans lyrics explain love better than most mainstream songs out there. not only that but the beat is hip hop at its best.
Treetops wait...isn’t TALIB the first MC to actually put KANYE on,even let him tour with him,KANYE even Thanks him on the last track off his debut album THE COLLEGE DROPOUT(I think the joint is LAST CALL if I’m not mistaken)...i stand to be corrected though.
Its 2020 who else is rocking talib kweli with me? Bc this joint is knockin. Wish i could find a woman who bangs this good ol hip hop and not mumble rap.
I listened 2 elzhi' save ya & that's the one before this one and feel that vibe crusin thru the songs like smokey robinson, i see myself type the word "thru" guess the next one will be that talib k dot feature Thank you Talib you da everything man man!

It really is fam. Alot of good acts out right now.
Don't forget Dead Prez.
Novak Delija and living legends, they were so underrated
*Pharoahe Monch out of chat*
"shorty bi-coastal, thick like bifocals". Dude went in
Perfect example of a Hip Hop love song. Talib Kweli = G.O.A.T status
I GOT LONG ARMS AND A BIG NET, CATCHER OF MY BUTTERFLY. 😘❤️🕊
Talib is a GOAT, I've been saying that a long time ago.
Jay Z said this man is the king

just Blaze killed this beat wish I knew how to sample
+kapone815 Knowing how to sample is not that hard, but sampling the right way is not for everyone.

Nate D Thanks bro but I was saying I wish I knew how to sample not what the sample is
+kapone815 ha, my bad. I see that now that I re-read your comment
this is actually a pretty simple sample i think its only one loop then he chopped the ooo ooo part so it could just keep going over and over like he did with the what we do sample for jay z and beans.
This guy is a genius. It's that's simple
After twelve years it's still a HIT❣️🔥
This was released in 2004. 19 years old since this dropped.
And it always will be 🎉 🥂 here's to the next 20 years
@@iamshyni69yes, I was going to say that. I was listening in 06 though, guess I was a little late.
its 2016 and STILL better than any love song out on mainstream radio.
Vic bio
Are there any love songs on mainstream radio today? Like *actual* love songs?? lol
Any song*
@@sthembiso4818 Ariana Grande has had some and others
Love songs don't even make radio anymore lmao. Not from hip-hop. Mos, Jean, Talib, Common, etc. If it ain't them, it's not being made at all.
Real hip hop- real music- real artistry- real lyrics- REAL!!!
And they've NEVER Gave this One OUNCE OF RADIOPLAY! THIS WHOLE WIDE WORLD IS BUGGED OFF
😍🌹
When hip hop was Real
It's always magic when two giants link up on a record...
You gotta love the samples from Just Blaze. Timeless!!!
Kweli is one of the most tightest and underrated lyricists in rap, and of course Just Blaze is one of the best beatmakers ever.
"Gave the rest a try, now give the best a try." So using this as a pickup line haha
i like how just blaze is like 'awww hell no" and pushes his way onto the show
Good music with a hot beat is never out of style.
Talib Kweli sound is so smooth and dude lyrics flow like water.
I can't believe I forgot how much I loved this song ❤
“Shorty bi-coastal, thick like bifocals, stacked like Tupac vocals, her body so loco!”
We need more of this kind of raps that can speak to peoples soul Talib! Awesome video.
Very underrated true king of the game!!!!!
Loooovvvee Talib! Discovered Talib kweli, Mos Def, Tribe Called Quest in 2017 and my life got better, music got sweeter, musical awakening.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
WETTER THAN A PERFECT STORM
This song is so beautiful it reminds me of me and my baby girl man like she's so beautiful and when I layed eyes on her I feel deeply in love like I never felt before and I want to spend my whole rest of my life with her and have our own beautiful family
I remember when I first heard this song in 8th grade. Timeless
"Shorty Bi-Coastal thick like bifocals stacked like 2pac vocals" damn he tore that line up prolly my favorite part of the song
Just now caught the 2pac bar after yrs. Yeah he slid with that//
@@myownisle he sure did my older brother showed me that and this song that's a BAR don't make them like that no more 💯💯💯
that black guy with the glasses must be the creator of vevo
catarino ocegueda that black dude with glasses? its actually Donte Culpepper lol
+Kevin Newsham hell naw haha

Talib is one of the best artist out there. His lyrics are unique.
He’s too smooth 👍🏿 I like how the background singers are all cool & smooth, turn ratchet then go back to being cool & smooth 😂
2 legends right here...kweli and just blaze
real hip hop. so refreshing.
This song is so poetic. Rap aka poetry at its best.
If Talib is not easily in your top 3! You're wasting your life away! This man not only has bars that are full of LIFE, He has LIFE bars!
Yep! It's still good in 2016. KEEP REAL MUSIC ALIVE!!!

It saddens me that they dont make music like this anymore. Straight Classic
I miss this era of hip hop 😢
"The rhythm is in the words and I watched her dance to my poems", deep and twisty lyrics Kweli. Nice beat by Just Blaze too.
Stacked like 2Pac vocals..😂😂😂😂 I thought it was just me. Still dope, Kweli & Jus Blaze 🔥 🔥
Just Blaze.. -_- ..Just Blaaaiiiize! o.O ..
