Why am I finding this Kanye song now? I thought I heard it in a dream, and it was something I have been longing for, but it turns out it was playing while I was asleep.
Definitely bro actually meeting him would make you appreciate him and love him more. I used to be a Ruff Ryder and got to hang around him several times
3 stacks verse get me every time I hear this. I lost my momma 1999 the worse day of my life. She had 3 degrees from Chicago had 3 sons and died when I was 13. Lord do I miss my momma everyday. She was a Ms Donda she spoke life into us. I was my school president 7th and 8th grade because my momma I'll never forget.
I’m experiencing so many different emotions with this. It’s so many layers to it. Andre 3000, The Dramatics in the background, the late great Ron Banks’ voice, Biggie’s voice, Total’s no one else remix beat, Biggie & DMX! Rest In Peace. Hearing DMX protect, reassure & encourage his daughter brought me to tears. This is an instant classic, the type of music that music lovers crave. I love this, it’s completeness and substance for me. Kanye’s depth and vast knowledge of music, and his ear for it. Sounds like Chicago in the Summertime, mixed with an old school basement party.
I lost my momma in 2016 and it still feel like it happened yesterday. Hearing Andre 3000 verse brought tears to my eyes because that’s exactly how I feel. Respect to the both of them. Losing a loved one hurts don’t get me wrong but when ya momma pass away…. Lord bruh….
"Faith driving us like a Rolls Royce.." Deep. Also, shout out to singer and actress, the great Mrs. Leslie Uggams. She covered the Dramatics song and Ye produced one of his best tracks EVER!
This song is legendary. I always get goosebumps listening to dre verse. It's uncanny, the delivery, cadence. It's a conversation and we all in on it. Classic material
Goosebumps, heart palpitations, slow, steady breathing - that's what this gives me STARTING with hearing 3 Stacks in his poetic flow followed by the musical genius, Ye. This on repeat still...
It's a nostalgic song about mourning parental loss. We're remembering the special people who are no longer here, but their presence and influence are still felt. Ye and Andre do this on a personal level by mourning the ghosts of their parents, but they also remind us of the forefathers of hip-hop who've also since left us. Even bringing back Andre 3000 was bringing back a living ghost before it departs like how B.I.G and DMX did - a reminder that we need to love people when they are still alive. Genius
Two of my favorite and the greatest lyricist of all time spitting on an angelic beat…. then honoring a real “angel” in this and one of the greatest ever to do it at the end… and people wonder why I love “Ye” 🙏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾 #LEGENDARY
With all due respect, you missed at least 2 before them. But can both be top 3-5 imo. Stacks has always been a different breed. And Ye produces in a way that only Dilla, 9th, Pete does imo. Amongst maybe some others slipping my mind rn.
andre 300 has no more skill than the average rapper, he's HEAVILY overrated because he barely makes music. remember when his genius got him the horrible failed tv show that had 0 creativity HE created himself?
Andre 3000 has been first on my top five for a minute now I mean the way he talked to Kanye’s moms to talk to his moms …. For some reason seems as tho he was speaking for me to my moms 🥲So many layers of thoughts run thru my mind … I’m fucking inspired, mind blown and jealous at the same time wit this song 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🔥🔥🔥✊🏾🤯🤦🏽💪🏾
Every so often, we get masterpieces that can conjure up all kinds of emotions and responses. It's crazy to think that if we continue to get hits like this, hip hop will always remain. Some things just have to happen, and this one definitely is a banger.🙏🏾
If andre didn't steal the spotlight, This song would be recognised as Old school kanye revived, Ye abostuley tears it up so does andre we know that already tho, But the beat and Ye's flow is nostalgic and Fireee
This is the most underrated record of all time its so honest like we all think like this when someone dies!! Especially are loved ones especially and essentially Andre 3000s verse
I’m crying this is totally happening we as king and queens have to protect our children and teach them everything we no before this world put false tales in there head facts love you always Kanye west I just feel like there gonna take you off the earth before we even love you even more 😓😓😓
" Miss Donda , you see my momma tell her I'm lost "💔 lost my mom at the age of 7 , I never really got to know her & that gets to me everytime just wondering what kind of person she was . I'm now 21 & went through quite alot from being mistreated by stepmother to losing my father at 19 whilst writing my final exam at high school , being affiliated with street shit(because I lost guidance) , to living outside my comfort zone for some years coz I had to move out from my father's house , while tryna figure out a way to make it out the hood but then had to watch some of my dreams go down the drain due to certain circumstances. Constantly wondering how my life would be like if my dad & mom was still alive.💔 Andre verse got me so emotional & took me all the way back , felt that shit in my fucking soul.
Stay strong, Pray for the future you want, believe that God will make a way and accept your parents are no longer here🙏🏾🙏🏾🤗 I lost my mum 15 years ago and seems like yesterday, it will be hard at times but keep going. You got this 💪🏿 Get counselling or Therapy if you need it, never ashame on your journey for personal development.
Classic Kanye!!! "And my favourite principal name was Mrs. Wooten/ she was strict, the perfect instructor for young Putin/ Vladimir/ just so that it's clear/ whom should we fear/ when we know dad is here/..."
This song almost always makes me cry. If I do happen to make it through, the second I hear the DMX outro its game over. Still angry they took him away from us, probably always will be.
I can't listen to the end without tearing up all I think about is the time I've spent with my parents and my daughter I want her to be the best her and love life

Lost mine xmas eve 2024. I get it. Prayers up for you
I love Kanye, I have been 10 toes down from jump for Kanye.... The Truth will prevail.
👊🏾
Realizing he actually rrcotded his first single, with his jaw wired, I was sold too..
Real music 🎶
I'm with you!
he's always had that heart
As soon as 3000 said, "Aye Ms. DONDA!" Instant chill bumps!!
DMX at the end brought tears to my eyes. This is a great piece of work. 3 of my favorite rappers. Long live X

There's so much depth to this track. You could listen 1000 times and still come back to hear something new touch you inside.
This is probably my favorite song in the last decade like this it's just beautiful

“Starting to think there’s no such thing as heavens trumpets” that line speaks to all of us with moms in heaven 🥺
I don't know you, but I'm sending you mad love and strength. Just know energy never dies my friend 💯.
We need a full album of Ye and 3k. Talk about a masterpiece waiting to happen.

Would be incredible but I don't think the world is ready for it.
That was insane Kanye as just the producer as well or rapping too 😅wow

Kanye is a musical genius Andre is a master poet
Andre 3000 is also and very musically versatile
Andre is literal poet he did poet before rap. So yeah I agree with you there
Yess!
@Clevon 👍
Yall are comparing your personal repretwara of a broken language in the comment section of multi platinum artists

Perfectly said 🗣️💯 ✨🙏🏾
This transiton from the 1st verse to the 2nd verse was 🔥
Man its Awesome to see 3000 Smiling

This song came to mind (specifically Andre 3000’s verse) when I heard Kendrick’s meet the grahams.
So rare I listen to something and it has more emotional impact on repeat listens, fucking love this andre verse
This is the collab we all needed. these two need to drop a body of work together it will be a classic 👌🏿 this was musical perfection
I love this version also , mostly because it extends the song , and I want it to continue.
Every so often, we get masterpieces that can conjure up all kinds of emotions and responses. It's crazy to think that if we continue to get hits like this, hip hop will always remain. Some things just have to happen, and this one definitely is a banger.🙏🏾
Definitely a masterpiece
Why 3 stacks you left the rap game hip hop still needs you bro your the Goat

Cold asf. SMH
He slid Puff in there too....can you find him?
This is a Masterpiece 🖤
Andre 3000 need to drop a long awaited album. Like now.
I absolutely love how they blended DMX into this song too phenomenal artists
Born and raised on 43rd south side Chicago.....I love you even more today. Ye! This is you're best.
