"Baby Got Back:" Sir Mix-A-Lot with the Seattle Symphony

- Опубликовано: 6 июн 2014
- The Seattle Symphony's critically acclaimed Sonic Evolution project creates a bridge between the Symphony and Seattle's storied reputation as launching pad for some of the most creative musicians on the popular music scene. Each year, in celebration of the past, present and future of our city's musical legacy, Ludovic Morlot and the Seattle Symphony commission world-class composers to write orchestral world premieres inspired by bands and artists that launched from, or are related to, Seattle.
In addition to writing a brand new composition inspired by Seattle's own Sir Mix-A-Lot, composer Gabriel Prokofiev also orchestrated two of the legendary rapper's most famous hits for this year's concert, including "Baby Got Back," for which Sir Mix-A-Lot joined Ludovic Morlot and the Orchestra on stage at Benaroya Hall.

The girl in the black was like, "Shit, this is my moment."
She has moments like that *all the time*.
***** You know that she does.
Dan Bennett I wanna hang out with her. And then maybe buy her a house. THAT is the KIND.
The lady in black danced like she was waiting for this moment since 1992. Too cute.
You can tell that woman in the black dress has been waiting for this situation her entire life.
Baby Got Bach!
Them nerdy girls are the FREAKIEST of them all!!!
the chick in the black dress went *INNNNN*
And the composer wasn't so shabby either.
The girl in the black dress was the best backup dancer ever! He needs to take her on tour!
The sexiest thing about the woman in the black dress is how much fun she's having.
I was in the crowd, that lady up there is my friends mom I shit you not. I am amazed at how popular this has gotten holy crap.
Such an amazing night. I'm in the striped dress. Grew up in Seattle on Mix-a-Lot and this night was pure awesome. He killed it. So did Pickwick who played as well!
LMAO BLACK DRESS GET THAT SHIT!!!!
That conductor is a BOSS!
The woman in black and the library glasses was the best. She was really into it.
Lmao... That chick in the black dress & eyeglasses looks like she's a librarian. Then when the music started.... Who woulda guessed?
This was so funny! The girl in the black dress was getting her baby got back dance on! I loved seeing these girls just having a good time...no judgement, just good times.
Who is the chic in black. She is the definition of "Oh this my JAM!!!!!"
The Seattle Symphony and.....Sir Mix A lot? Lawd have mercy.
I'll be honest that I never thought I'd see a symphony performing Baby Got Back.
There goes my morning.
If you grew up in the 80's and the 90's you have no choice but to love this
I have no ass, but whenever this song comes on I rock it and pretend like I have BACK! Love you Sir MixA Lot! Mwha!
Lady in the black dress and glasses killing it XD
Man made millions just making women feel good about their body image! DO YOU GUYS GET THAT!?
40 piece string sections....... Booty shaking baby boombers..... Old folks in Elegant dress...... And SIR MIX-ALOT.
Ahh, my life is finally complete.
mozart is turning in his grave....and twerking
OMG, the woman who got snatched by her friend at 5:52...I was dying laughing, lol. I guess friends don't let friends back it up on Sir Mix-A-Lot, LMAO!!! She snatched the crap out of her, hahahaha!
I swear that chica in the black dress has been waiting her ENTIRE life for this very moment. HA and I loved every part of it!
I'm loving the conductor ... especially at 5:22 :)
The lead cellist in the shades, was killing the pizzicato.... I love a nice symphony, but LOVE fusion and merging musical genres. The symphony house will never be the same.
That's Shawn Bounds dancing in the black dress! The girl's got skills. What a great time had by all and NO, Shawn was not a plant... just your average beautiful "Baby Got Back" Fan! Well done sister! LOVED IT!
honestly, i give huge props to the symphony for pullin that off
The lady in the black dress and glasses dancing in the front looks GORGEOUS!!!!
My grandma was there, she said it was delightful.
Nothing sexier than a bunch of girls shaking there gifts on stage to a classic like that one!!!!!! Black dress girl rocked that stage!!!!!!!!!!! Hooooowl
Why is everyone so 'oh my gosh' over this? It's fun and adorable and if you were there you'd be singing it too.
"Orchestral Movements from the Hood Night" I.Can't... :)
Awesome!
That lady in the black dress was really getting into it lol
Whoever said symphony orchestra cannot do contemporary music like metal or hip hop, take a good look. I love this!!
That was the shit. No one cared how they looked
My mother was dancing to this. This made my day.
I think thats my mom in the black dress. "face palm"
Greatest rap song ever recorded.
Congradulations Sir-Mix-A-Lot if anyone deserves such an honor it's this legendary rapper.
This was AWESOME! Props to the orchestra and conductor for doing a great job with this song, to Sir-Mix-a-Lot for performing this song as well as when he first released it, and to all those awesome women dancing their hearts out!
By the way, don't be embarrassed for Seattle. We rock in so many ways including the Symphony, Grunge, and Coffee!
Holy shit! I can't believe that many women would get up on stage in front of everyone for this. Go Seattle!
Well done!!! Loved it!!!! Props to babygirl In the black dress for doing her thing
HA! "Orchestral movements from the hood night"
The lady w/ the glasses and black dress has got it goin' on!
I distinctly remember this song bringing out the wild side of many girls at my high school junior prom. It made a big impression on me.
Rap softly and carry an orchestra.
I love it when the girl at 5:50 gets pulled back by her friends.....
That was her daughter! ;)
The woman in the black dress around the intro of the song was really into it.
I maintain that orchestrating hip-hop music is the best way to get kids into the symphony hall. Peace.
The chick in black does it for me. She knew the words too!! SO DAMN FUNNY!!!!
This was AWESOME! The woman in the black dress is killing it!!!
This is the most epic symphony performance I've ever seen. I laughed the whole way through!
This is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!! Great way to invite a more diverse audience to the symphony! GREAT JOB SEATTLE!! It's amazing how music bridges the divide! This was FANTASTIC!!!
The lady with the glasses is a really classy lady that knows how to get down when she wants to. I'm absolutely jelly of whoever she's with right now.
Third best thing about this video- the chick in the black dress tearing it UP!
Now that is what I call classical music...
These women were having fun. What is wrong with that? Loosen up people! If some people in the orchestra looked uncomfortable, it's okay. Have fun, smile, and laugh your ass off!
Orchestrated rap and rock is always awesome!
I had to watch this a few times to take it all in! I enjoyed watching Ludovic Morlot conduct this orchestra and man was he having fun. One of the violinists was bumpin' in her chair when she wasn't playing. I'm surprised by how many of the women know the words. This song is a song from the 80's haha.. Okay, a few are clearly women _from_ the 80's. .... just goes to show when something really fun comes along and the beat is just right, not to mention the content being so risque, it never loses its appeal. Some of the women were just downright hilarious to watch. Very fun.
I ❤️it!!!! That's great!!! Hands down to you Sir Mix A lot!!! & as for all the ladies.... I applaud you all! Especially home girl w/the black dress! She had it down pat! & worked it too! 😉😊
"Sir, we have successfully merged the concepts of high art and street music."
"YOU FOOL! They were never supposed to be merged! Do you know what kind of terror you have unleashed upon this world?!"
"But sir..."
"WHAT IS IT?!"
"The ass was fat, sir."
Ya know.. I was real cranky this morning... til I saw this. It made my morning by far. Lol. That lady in the black dress was gettin it. This was fantastic, definitely made me smile and laugh.
The woman on the far left in the black dress stole the show! Haha
The girl in the black went hard af lol
It's awesome to see that Sir-Mix-A-Lot still can get down after all these years.
Oh my God, Becky. Look at those kettle drums.
This could quite possibly be the best video ever made! I've watched it five times straight and I still can't stop laughing!
The girl in the black dress at the front is awesome!
Music knows no boundaries!!!!!
I reacted to this vid and you can see close-ups of the Baby Got Back Lady In Black! I so want to interview her.
I know... she was rocking it. You could tell this was her jont.
Yes! She was awesome!
Oh my words cannot express how much fun it was just to watch! Seattle's got STYLE. Lots of love to all the people who know how to have fun (and even those who don't but wish they did) ♡ive
The genius of Sir Mix-A-Lot all over again.
I loved it love the Lady in BLACK!
What I find the most hilarious, is the one white girl in the more conservative dress, goes a LOT more wild AND knows all the Dance Moves to the song, than the black ladies!!
Seattle Symphony & Six Mix-a-Lot you guys rocked that house and brought it down!! This was an awesome Nostalgia Trip, considering this is one of the few rap songs I will actually listen and love
THE GAL IN THE BLACK WAS THROWING DOWN!!! NICE!...:)
Music is TRULY universal! LMAO!!
That girl in the black dress made the video! So funny!
I need to go to the Symphony more. This is AWESOME. Baby got back!
LOL Whoever the girl in the black dress is is awesome.
Holy crap that one in the black dress is killing it xDDD
Am I the only one that apprecated Mix's work before this "hit"? His work with Kid Sensation. Seminar was his best!
Wow this was so cool and goes to show you music pulls us together no matter your color or class!
"Orchestral movements from the hood night" Ha!
Seattle Symphony, I probably will never get to actually hear you play in person, but please add me to your donation list after this. You are awesome!
Both these songs they did - what joyous fun! I would've loved to have been there! I did get to meet him in the spring of 1989; one of the nicest straight-up guys ever!
They had a good time. Especially the woman black. LOL
Omg, Sir Mix-a-lot and the Seattle Symphony?! I love it and damn, woman in the black dress sure was having alot of fun that night, plant or not. I think no. :)
Okay, how funky is the Seattle SYMPHONY? I loved this video.
My FAVORITE symphonic "movement"!!!
One of the greats remains one of the greats. He still can get everyone in a massive building to sing his song. Brilliant.
My childhood has meaning again. SWEET.
now theres something you don't see everyday :)
Benaroya Hall will never be the same again.
He seems like a really cool guy.
This gave me goosebumps. Well done, Sir.
This makes me... so happy.
