And no hype man either. That was a lesson in breathe control. Ever3gave me goosebumps. Miss that Kanye
Kanye West is an absolute Legend. That was the first time that I saw him. I was 13 years old and I was sat in front of my tv in Portugal waiting for pink floyd when this guy appeared. It was an amazing experience for a portuguese kid that didn’t understand a word. I was mesmerized by him. I grew, and kanye grew too giving me almost every year the same feeling.
Now we have “Jesus is King” and we know (now) that we were blessed! Thank You Kanye West!
@Goncalo Narciso Já somos 3 Crl
@Goncalo Narcisonas performances ao vivo Kanye é ainda mais genial. Saudações do brasil
Kanye é Rei! Mais um PT aqui! 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
Andres Porras what does that mean
Eu pensava que era a única a ter visto isto em directo na RTP e de ter escrito o nome do Kanye West porque se ele era assim ao vivo, queria saber se era igual ou melhor na gravação! Ele vai ser o 2pac da nossa geração. Mas vivo. Vá. 🤣

You gotta love it tho somebody still speaks from his soul
Yes

The crowd didn't even understand what they witnessed
Big facts fr he talked that shit n this song fr

This man is possessed by greatness when hes on the stage.
This was Michael Jackson level performance energy right here 🤯 Kanye used his voice and words like no other.
Tbh kanye is next to MJ level. Nobody wants to say it but he really is. Kanye west is a hiphop / music legend
@@okaydmuzikkk6771 fax
True

U can contextualise how good this is by imagining how crazy people would get if this happened today.
100%
What an amazing performance. This man is the most talented musician in history
The violins on this are nasty!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I remember the time I couldn't afford a Ford escort or even a four track recorder ooohweeee
So it’s only rite I let the top drop on the drop top porcha for myself that’s important
I was sick about awards, couldn't nobody cure me.
Only pkayer that got robbed and kept all his jewellery
All good lines..." If your stripper name is Portia and you get tips from many men than your fat friend her nickname is minivan." Is next fuckn level tho
Finna play this song odee when I make it
@@mickmarty2082 Porsche(the car) not portia. Pronounced "por-sha"
I remember seeing this live and being wowed. Incredible performance, the energy, the confidence, the words and swag!!
Kanye gave everything he had in this performance, yet the crowd showed no energy at all.
Most people there weren’t there for him,
it's Live 8, plus I am a Kanye fan and even I didn't know this song was out yet then
I have to say I'm a die hard Kanye fan but this is probably the greatest performance I've ever seen. The energy is unreal. What a living legend
I was here at this ....and the crowd was caught a lil off gaurd.... Kanye had just dropped one album so he wasn't as big as he was yet ...so the crowd took a second then processed it
this is just screaming, og shouting, not rapping !
I love this man more than most of my family
Absolutely brilliant performance
Kanye is a genius.
Forever ever
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Even the cello girl at 2:38 is goddamn Kanye dropping some heat
Who’s waiting for this to blow up and get the recognition it deserves
When he talks about Jay, 'Right here stands a man with the power to make a diamond with his bare hands'. I know Hov always showed his rocnation sign up in the sky with his bare hands... lyrics go deep!
nah hes talking about himself he was saying he has the power to make diamond ria certified records with a beat machine. the og way
@@misternishi That's also a possibility!! deep
Kanye > Your favorite artist
What if Kanye = My fav artist
Great Titan Thanos he’s better than you think he is
Kanye > Kanye then
Kanye > Kanye
Jokes on you
This Kanye was the best ever he was bringing out hit after hit of some of the realest shit since Tupac and Biggie...
Absolutely on point great orchestra aswell
These kids will never understand the 🔥🔥🔥🔥 this man produced.
Yes
I was there and I don’t care what anyone says about Kanye. I left that day shook
how did people receive him? What were their views on him at the time because he had to scream to get his attention?
@@THEVIDEOARBITRATORthey thought he was egotistical but had talent, they didn’t believe he could make it in the rap game especially considering gangstar rap was the most popular thing at the time. How ever once they saw him drop back to back classics “the dropout trilogy” that’s when they fully gained faith in him. It was like that until the Taylor swift incident
@@blizyon30fps86 hmmm i see. thanks for the heads up
Holy FUCK the 2nd verse is so damn good. Top tier Kanye verse
Facts top 10 rap verses of the last 20 yrs
That was an amazing perfomance for this greatest Lifetime talented artist in history. I'm huge Fan from Mozambique and i'm strill watching in 2023
High class elite level hip hop .
I can’t believe I was only 2 years old when this happened wow
Wooooo what a genius!! This made me want to fly to Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 lol
As a Sierra Leonean the country is beautiful you won’t regret it
Lyricist at one of his finest hours...This is not up for discussion POINT BLANK
That crowd was so lame!!?? Kanye slayed that shit!
facts
The fact he brought all these sounds together on top of this rhyme is just fucking whooooooooosh the most amazing producer rapper talent of all time
This ain’t his best song but ion if he’s ever gone harder
I like the old Kanye
What a performance !!!
Back when rappers actually performed and didn't have the track playing in the background helping them.
This man is something else.
this is literally greatness
This is just sublime.
Kanye West 👑👑
Great
Just great
INDEED
masterpiece.
The best performance from the Philadelphia stage of live 8. Hands Down.
The times that Kanye had violin orchestra and Shirley Bassey instead of hypeman and playback
Look at that. Kanye at his prime, rapping his soul at one of his greatest hits. Miss this Kanye
Brutal!!!
Quality!!! Genius
Mr West, this song intrigues me.... for I'm a Sierra Lenean.
sweet pie more or less, it was the most prominent in the 80s and 90s while Sierra Leone was still going through civil war
Listen to the remix and watch the video. It'll make more sense. This version doesnt talk too much of it but, the idea for the song, the remix and the video is all about the African blood diamond trade
@@PaulO-re4xx Qυitε right...
@@iandrsaurri625 Okay, Ι'll do that
Killed it swiftly
Bu adam ne yaparsa yapsin benim suan yasamamin nedenlerinden biri bu adamdir kulaklarim beynim her anlamda cosuyorsa bu adam sayesindedir shakespeare gibi adam olmasinin yani sira bir yerde de gercekten bu isin babalarindan biridir
kanye is a genius. There is no denial here!
2022 , who still believes Kanye is king of his game ?
If you've seen Free Larry Hoover concert. The Ye is still is the King, The GOAT
2022 Damn Ye that performance was soulful
this is why i love hiphop
These guys truthfully are talented.let them enjoy the fruits
Best song by Kanye
The shirley bassey sample makes this song so much more golden
How can you even compare drake to Kanye when this exists… mad
I’ve seen enough…. this the greatest thing I’ve ever seen 🔥🔥
I am SIERRA LEONE... KANYE WEST is a legend ....
I don´t like Kanye as a person, but as a performer, he is powerful on the stage, his rhymes are so strong and his beats energetic. Good for him
Finally, someone who doesn't shit on his music because of his controversies
@@morgana3223 from 3 years ago buddy
and Kanye was still controversial 3 years ago, since y'know. Bipolarity
@@zchilost noted
@@IMPALA32A wow you are still here 3 yrs later nice
This is not hip hop but history being writing 👑
One of the greatest rap songs of all time!!
I think Kanye must of been a new or relatively unfamiliar act here or maybe not expected but I love his belief in himself and how he started screaming to make them listen to him. Notice the contrast from the beginning of the performance to the middle to the end. He commanded them to get their attention. I love his self-belief.
firmly believe this is the best live performance ye has given us
The reason the crowd was so dead is cuz they dont understand what he’s talking about its to real only a select few can understand
they didn't know the song yet, it wasn't out yet
THIS IS THE WAY !!!! !!!! !!!! !!!!
Classic hip hop
Legendary performance 🔥
When Kanye West dies, this video will get millions of views. Remember what I said.
Ye is forever a 🐐 this a masterpiece & he deserves his flowers I reacted to this video out now 🐐🍿🔥🔥
west is the king
I was in the crowd for this had my Diamond in the Air!
Shivers !
Can’t even lie he snapped 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 infinity glove 🧤 snapped
That crowd was horrible, a masterpiece right before your eyes
This is prime Kanye!
Respect from Sierra Leone
You CANT TELL ME KABYE NOT THE GREATEST EVER
Where is ‘Jesus Walks’? That was the highlight of his set that day.
What was his set?
@@emilhansen7122 If I remember correctly, he started with 'All Falls Down', then followed that with 'Diamonds' and then finished with 'Jesus Walks'. It would be nice to see all three on this channel @Live8
This should’ve been performed at night
it was 2005, he was on the undercard, not many knew him in mainstream. This song was played at live 8 one month before the release of his second album.
he knows he never made a bad song
Can you upload Kanye's All Falls Down & Jesus Walks performance as well?
That's Ye🙆🏾♂️🙌🏾
shit is phenomenal
So many year later, it is still a powerful performance to see!!!
Fantastiskt
Forever the goat
Kanye rock dat shit
WOW
