Found this song a year after my wife and I lost our son at 9 months via still birth. I never looked at the title of the song until now, I just heard the beat and keys and it was instantly therapeutic. I wonder who was Isaac? Anyway RIP to James Edward Runnels V aka: Lil Seis, you would have been three years old today. See on the other side son.
My heart goes out to you and your wife.... I'm glad your able to find Some healing while listening to quest love... I can only imagine what you've gone through. Much respect for sharing your story.
it's okay.. the next time you try for a child it will have all the energy from your young king james all into your new one!! i hope this didn't disencourage you two
@@rwmorris35 doesn’t get the love in the hip hop community/ and or comes across as “alternative” hip hop. Did Voodoo many don’t understand how different he had to drum to be a part of a classic album. Should be talked about more throughout the artist
+cloud y +saucy05 Yeah in interviews he basically admitted Dilla was the reason he branched out. He said once he found his sound Dilla was like 'alright now do something different, experiment, etc etc.' that Dilla taught him to progress basically and not just be that drummer that had that one sound. Not saying he wouldn't have become a legend or trying to down talk ?uest at all because that dude definitely holds a special place in my hip-hop heart compartment. Just adding on to your post about Dilla being an inspiration to ?uest
+Cackling Tom You should read Questloves book. He has a great story about the first time he met J Dilla back when he was nothing and just starting :) and it's a great memoir in general "Mo' Meta Blues"
Questlove is one of those musical geniuses nobody seems to have heard of. He's a hip-hop veteran who's been behind more music than you could realize. If only he had more recognition.
@@jblfamily02 just found out about the song. listening to it on endless repeat, few dozen times now. this upload was 2 moths after Isaac left. I hate how the Soulquarians found their end, but dang, i love what Questlove has done here
I was in AC some years back at an Erykah Badu concert and Questlove sat right behind us. I told my wife who he was and she was like "that ain't him" so I said "What's up Ahmir?" and he got up and gave me some dap. He was real low key, nobody realized it was him.
My friend Brian Gillison passed away this past sunday...He was one of the best drummers I ever heard and saw play before in my life. He was also a very good man.. May his soul rest eternally in peace in Jesus' name I pray Amen.
Thats exactly what i feel.. i landed here after watching SHAFT Movie and its Background score made me explore these kind of music...RESPECT! from Bangalore India.
The world never speaks to you in words, its the sounds of music that reach my soul. Lifts me up to a better place, realize the grass is always greener and life goes on. I may never be a musician, but if I could ever put my true spirit into melodies it would sound something like this. Hope everyone have a good night, and a good life.
It is amazing how true musicians can say so much without saying a single word. Totally encompasses the wide range of emotions one feels when dealing with the loss of a loved one. RIP Issac Hayes!
when you give up on "trying" to live, something beautiful happens, you start letting it happen. Life is like holding water in your hands; you can only cup it, but if you try to clutch it you loose it all. My mom died of cancer it taught me a whole lot man, I hope all goes well for you! peace and love!
@Benjamin Lewis-Skeath yeah, that's exactly what Miles and Mozart and Mingus and Hendrix said... Oh wait, no they didn't; the great artists know dey da shit
This is just stunning. Quest love is a genius period. I was lucky enough to see Isaac Hayes in London a few years before he passed.... Just magical. This tribute is beautiful. Thanks for the music Black Moses and Quest Love
Although this track is great, we should never forget the main inspiration behind this track. R.I.P Isaac Hayes, soul music wouldn't be the same without you. And thank you to Questlove, James Poyser and others for keeping his spirit alive in the 21st century.
Jan.20: Happy birthday Percussionist-music producer Amir Khalib Thompson / Questlove. Grammy Award winner. Thank you and God bless. Thanks for the upload, Sotheara Lim. Blessings
I listen to this it reminds me of my. Big cousin jeff he was a drummer and may god rest his soul he was a great man!!!!! I will miss u Bigg cousin!!!!!
The right hand melody is very close to a vocal interpretation -- even mimics it in my view --- I can imagine the songwriter heard this as the vocal melody; probably felt like actuals words would hide the beauty and I would agree.
I decided to share my mothers story after I read 1isaacmusic's post, the candid way he spoke about his situation was how I knew it was sincere, which blew me away, because I could recant this story in some circles and folks could never believe or relate, so he Validated me. And let me know that am not or was not crazy, I seen some things in life that im still tryin to interperet. So im humbled.Bless you all....
Awesome testimony !!!! Its sounds like your mother is fighter and her resistance to NOT give in was a faith response to her trusting the Lord to be healer he is.
I had this song pop up one night, a few weeks ago. It brought tears to my eyes. You know why ? I was waiting to die from cancer, and this one night, i thought it was going to happen finally. I was thinking about my mother, who died from cancer herself, and I did not find out for a few years. ....I was healed that night, completely. When it was happening was when this song popped up. Life is good friends, so beautiful. I hope it is the same for you.
Please please, sit back And ease yourself All the stress and strain Cant be good for health Time to take time- to take a hit, But it's the drums not the drugs that i like to get It's stupid Smoking dope to get lucid Hooked to the drug like love is to cupid We all have our fix And not just for kicks Mine are the sticks Plus snares Rattling air Really nothing else compares Boom bap boom Shakes the room And soon creates doom To this delicious tune
What can I say man Quest is a pioneer, one of the very few drummers that knows about the art of mastering the beats, not just a great drummer/producer/DJ.....Can't top that
Drumming is the backbone of most music so it's only natural for a talented drummer to in fact produce tracks. John Bonham ( Led Zep ) Phil Collins even Prince & Lenny Kravitz play drums . I'm not shaming ya . . . Just sayin . ; )

Thinking of you and your young king may he rest peacefully until you meet again/
Sorry for your loss. Isaac was Isaac Hayes. Questlove got with Randy Watson and James Poyser and made this in honor of Hayes the day he passed.
it's okay.. the next time you try for a child it will have all the energy from your young king james all into your new one!! i hope this didn't disencourage you two
One of music’s most under appreciated artist ever. He’s a legend.
How? Everybody knows him your just a kid

So is he in the house?
the stories that you hear man I swear
that definitely happened
such rhythms carry us away to thoughtful places, just as death reminds us life is bittersweet.
I like that
Still listening this.. 2024. It brings back memories nostalgia
the snare is amazing
ya got producer ears ;)
+Christopher Hall i love how natural it sounds
+olyolers the tambourine/shaker layer under it is fucking beautiful

Sorry about your lost RIP Brian Gillison
Sorry about your lost
Rest in Peace

Yes! Chills running down my spine.

May the One above bless you for all eternity,kind soul. :)
This makes my anxiety go away. Though I feel my heart beating with the drum, the smooth bass and piano are whispering in my ear to calm down.

which song?
@@quintonnurse1 Isaac Hayes. Period. You ask which song, choose one.
Wow. I didn't know. That's why there's a a lil hint of sadness and the feelings if a joyful memory.
This instro will forever be fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Everytime I comeback it hits me all over again. 👆Most grateful Thank you 😊.
I always come back here, I love it so much!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
goodbye '' thanks for everything
Once again ..... Much Appreciation .
I wonder what a collaboration between Questlove and Nujabes would sound like.
Too true, RIP Nujabes.
The world wouldn't be able to handle it
the two of them + J Dilla
god damn, I think I might have a crisis just thinking about the possibilities
Would sound like heaven.
Rest in beats, Nujabes
Keep coming back to this year after year. Each element is perfect.
I'm on the good part of RUclips right now. Delightful.
Peace.

Yeaaaaahhh.

Its so funny how that softness in the beginning hits so hard.
Gonna think about that for awhile. Thanks.
@@andrewcraddock7339 thanks bro
Just Beautiful
Simplistic , melancholic perfection!!!
Questlove is bananas on the drums…… let it breath
I always come back to this. For almost 4 minutes, it's just an incredible 8 bar loop on and on. Amazing how many things you can convey in 8 bars.
The bass is such an underrated instrument. Just taking a second out of my day to give props to Owen Biddle, the bassist.
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
The bass is the sexiest instrument indeed. It carries everything else.
It’s amazing how much is said without any words.
He might be famous but he’s actually still very underrated
Such a clean and crispy sound.
My favorite instrumental beat in my playlist! Quest❤🎶
Some people say "oh if only someone were singing over this"...Heres a secret....The Tune is the singer but your not listening.
HomelessAfroman. Bravo! Indeed
Exactly, words are not always needed.
The right hand melody is very close to a vocal interpretation -- even mimics it in my view --- I can imagine the songwriter heard this as the vocal melody; probably felt like actuals words would hide the beauty and I would agree.
Other's don't get it...so glad the majority of us do!!!
If they said that they probably never heard the soundtrack to "Shaft".. I mean the full album
This song needs to be longer! This is great for flowing with my drawing & writing for school , good stuff! Old School ..
One love
A feeling of sweet sorrow; maybe even nostalgic. Everything is where it needs to be.
Sorrow sweet?

Thank you two brothers... One for the inspiration and one for the execution. Beautifully played... Big Big fan.
Old school feel...this song is beautiful...
This is absolutely gorgeous
Questlove is a vastly underrated drummer
Its a sample.
Wrong. This is live drumming. And even if it was sampled drums, that doesn't make the original comment not true.
great musician and producer, he's the boss
2018 and um here mehn.. I feel so touched by this one
Masterpiece damn! !
the perfect song to listen to on a rainy day
or a sunny morning with a coffee, fresh air and a nice book ;)
renecanter or anytime while doing anything, really :)
Or while watching hairy dwarf porn
love both...Isaac H & Questlove...lovely warm groove...;o)
This speaks languages that can't be spoken.
Heard the word and flew like bird, but now I'm sitting here and I'm feeling like a turd.
Yeah - that's what music DOES, man
Exactly.
This reminds me of a childhood unspoken
That cymbal really hits home every time I hear it
This track gives me goose bumps man I can't help it....
Always a hit
Truly beautiful
So powerful.
so powerful
SO POWERFUL
Thanks guys, glad you feel the power too

Gotta give ya thumbs up for that Binary Star icon.

On an autoplay RUclips music discovery session and that's the name coming up next. Tis a good evening for my musical discoveries it seems. Onwards!!!
Musicly in Europe, we still a little mile away from u.
Thanks on providing us this.
From Lisbon

Hi my lord and savior
Please please, sit back
And ease yourself
All the stress and strain
Cant be good for health
Time to take time- to take a hit,
But it's the drums not the drugs that i like to get
It's stupid
Smoking dope to get lucid
Hooked to the drug like love is to cupid
We all have our fix
And not just for kicks
Mine are the sticks
Plus snares
Rattling air
Really nothing else compares
Boom bap boom
Shakes the room
And soon creates doom
To this delicious tune
Oh damn! I forgot about this.
Stronglovin please wher does it come from ?
2018 and we here in this beautiful Mofoking beat.Thank you
2019 we in here chilling
Still chill in 2020✌
What can I say man Quest is a pioneer, one of the very few drummers that knows about the art of mastering the beats, not just a great drummer/producer/DJ.....Can't top that
Beautiful QuestLove 4 Ever
Saw Questlove on Democracy Now's coverage of the 2017 march for science in Washington dc.. Thanks brother!
The name of this song is deep, because my cousin's name was Isaac, and he passed away 😭💔.
I heard Questlove knows how to cook. If he opens up a restaurant I will have to go there. He's one of my favorite drummers.
& God is Good.
Questlove, you're not in the house
I love this song so much... it holds a very special place in my heart, thank you.
"Slum Village" or "A Tribe Called Quest" need to lay a chilled rap over this, perfection!
***** Hi my sexy chappy, how are you ;)
i agree 100%
my friend is called isaac
Honestly, i could hear doom put it down on this
Dudley Perkins. Theophilus London. and yes Doom.
This is what I've been looking for all day
The soul of heart beats
Beautiful beat i love the piano touch
still be here 20'16, i wait for you babe. you are my mind.
Thanks babe, same 2 u :)
Omg thanks 3======D
Old glory haha :P
Dear 'Quest LOVE', whether with D'A. or on this one,

So sad it took me so long to give this one a listen...all that matters is that I'm happily enjoying it now
Anyone know where I can find this? Really loving this right now
This blew up fast. Great to see real music get recognition
Why isn't this on spotify
Glad you guys liked the song. I remember seeing this on ?uest's myspace a few years back and was hunting it down like crazy when he took it down.

Again and again and again ... beautiful
