Sam's killers were watching this show and learning of his personal goals is one reason why Sam's not here. But, Sam will 4Ever be in my heart! I love you Sam!!!
@@DemarioDon If you say you are the new Sam Cooke, you turn everyone off from wanting to hear anything you have to show them. There is only one Sam Cooke. If everyone hears what you have and they say it, then it is what is, but it's not for you to say.
Everybody that's called or has been called a soul singer owes something to this man , took that southern baptist church sound to the mainstream and made it work , owned his publishing and label , prolific songwriter , created a new genre of music altogether. RIP the King Sam Cooke.
Nat turner21 his music Lives'on. One of the greatest singer song writers of all time. His music and songs are timeless. Thank god for UA-cam. When I need to listen to good music this is where I come. UA-cam.
Everyone back then seemed so intelligent and spoke so formal. It’s sad that nowadays it’s rare to see young people speak with such mannerisms of the old era.
To me being so kind and intelligent is very cool but the world today would say you're strange and a weirdo guy for being polite and kind. Ain't that crazy??? If you don't start a interview with "yooooo whats up people its your boy Sam" you're not in today.
What a wonderful man and singer. I feel for Sam Cooke. I can't imagine anyone hurting him. He seemed so full of light. A real talent and treasure that sang like an angel. In these times of anxiety and stress it is such an enormous comfort to listen to Sam's music. I hope Sam is at peace singing with a most beautiful choir of angels above.🌹
Without doubt Sam Cooke is a transcendental artist,he broke barriers down ,without protest or violence,there are no words to articulate how I feel about his music,and a unit of measure hasn’t been invented yet that could quantify my respect for the first true soulful singer,unequalled by anybody since,and I know that in 50 years time my son will expose his son to his beautiful music,sam will go on and on long after my time has passed, without his influence as the beach boys once sang “ god only knows “where we would be without him.
" I think the secret is really observeration...if you observe what's going on and try to figure out (how) how people are thinking and determine the (the the) times of your day i think you can always write something that people will understand. "
Sam Cooke, The first Black man to own his own record label. He set the scene for others to come. What a HERO!!! No one could ever deny his talemt. He started off in church. Thats where most us start. Throughout the years some will always remain in the building whilst others have to move and love to create another movement in another church. In this erea, technology has advanced that some have the opportunity to view online. What a privilege!.
Gaaah he was so nice! I would have loved to have gotten to talk to him. He seemed like such a polite and caring individual. People like that are few and far between.
I was just 10 when he was killed,but,I remember hearing it on the radio. My mom and I cried. You didnt have to be black to be hurt by his loss.That didnt matter. So much was lost with his death. Dick Clark was awesome too. He had gotten bomb threats if Sam went on his show.They were going to blow up the studio.What did Dick do? He called the National Guard for protection,and the show went on with Sam singing,as scheduled.
At this point he didn’t know “change gone come” is going to be a historic hit.. he didn’t know what his friend Mr. Clay who later would become Mohammad Ali would become a historical figure.. he missed out on so much man
What a beautiful , fine, handsome, sexy, and talented man. Rest in pease. It would have been forty nine years since this special man has been departed from us tomorrow. Seems such a long time. I pray he is with Jesus.
"What's the greatest thing that could ever happen to you?" .."Um If All the singers that I'm connected with had hits" Man Oh Man. He never got to see Aretha Franklin become "Aretha". He would have been in awe.
He really seems like a wholesome person! Very down to earth, with a great sense of humor. It's to bad he left us so soon. But thankful he left us with some great songs that everybody knows the words too! Thank You Sam!!!
@@DemarioDon Damn, where do you get the audacity to even dare compare yourself to The Cooke. The fact you need to advertise on youtube comments is enough evidence you'll probably never achieve your dream. Skill is required not this shameless bullshit you're partaking in.
Jack Sparrow wow 😳 why so much hate brother ? I don’t k you from a can of paint but hey that’s life Sam Cooke will forever be an idol I want to be like blessings to you brother
Possibly true but there are many unanswered questions about his death or murder. The Sam Cooke lying in state looks pretty beat up to have just been shot and hit by a woman with a broom handle.
Sam Cooke looked like he was a fun person to be around great energy it’s such a shame how he went out in the end beaten with a broom stick & shot like that smh we lost a such a wonderful talent RIP Sam!
My family and I LOVE Sam! He was a pure gift to music, that is clear but he was a man before his time. His advocacy for civil rights and equality are incredibly overlooked because of his enormous talent. He was such a vibe in his own right, but his drive to make his voice heard and shared with other civil rights activists is equally as legendary. If you haven’t seen “THE TWO KILLINGS OF SAM COOKE” on Netflix, I highly recommend it. The loss of such extraordinary people because of racism, and silencing those with voices and platforms all in the evil of oppression is devastating. To see where we are today and to know that after insurmountable sacrifice, that the right wing has chosen the hill of racism and hatred is baffling. It’s embarrassing to see this country come completely undone. To see the audacity of being so comfortable to say and behave in the most disgusting ways is something we all should care about and not stay silent in. We need to keep being ally’s, hold strong to the values of respecting all races, religions, genders, ethnicities, and communities! Don’t let these incredible people’s deaths be forgotten or overlooked. Don’t let it be in vain, we’ve got to really show up, human being for human being! Because this isn’t going to fix itself. We all have to change this. People deserve their born rights to this earth. We all deserve dignity, equity and equality, and love (universal healthcare and livable wages too) but… there are good people out there, they just need to remember that silence is complicit or indifferent neither of which will make progress ♥️ My respect & love forever to Mr. Sam Cooke
I love you Sam! You are so Gorgeous and I believe your killers were watching this show and learning of your powerful goals. They didn't like these goals of yours because this would make you a powerful Black man during your time and future times.

Seven months later he was gone. A six-year career cut short. A tragedy of epic proportions.
truly epic
Yes he looked so healthy and happy here, you just never know

You can tell that he was so personable and intelligent.
extremely smart and very very shrewd.
He was voted most likely to succeed in his high school class.
antij1 I am the Sam Cooke of my generation Rising Chicago Artist please give me a listen 🙏🏿🎥🔥👣
And that white bit'ch kill'd him🤦♂️
The woman that shot him was black. There’s photos of her online and the woman that stole his clothes was asian

Official Demario Don you’re not Sam!? Shut up.
Sam cooke, the king of all music. Lou rawls said "" they knew sam cooke was going to be the king of the world of music, so they murdered him."
Sam didn’t even own the rights to his own music. And nobody “murdered” him-he was chasing a woman, and he got shot
The advice he gives at 1:05 is golden!
Those who observe, create.
BlackLight Films - well said. And completely accurate. 👍🏾
TeamOctavia - Amen. I’ve referenced this chestnut of advice often 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.
Facts! Very accurate advice
Yes, observe your time of day...observation is the key.
Everyone back then seemed so intelligent and spoke so formal. It’s sad that nowadays it’s rare to see young people speak with such mannerisms of the old era.
And they were friends and friendly and normal.
I’m 29 an notice that to...back then it seems there soul was older an more mature
Raised by rude people. That’s the reason for the ignorance today.
That's so true. All the young people say nowadays is "What's up my Dog!" So stupid!!!
To me being so kind and intelligent is very cool but the world today would say you're strange and a weirdo guy for being polite and kind. Ain't that crazy??? If you don't start a interview with "yooooo whats up people its your boy Sam" you're not in today.
He seems like a genuine nice guy coupled with his singing abilities. Man I would’ve loved to meet him
Wow, I never heard his speaking voice before -- it was higher than I expected! He was such an incredible singer and songwriter.
He had such a beautiful smile! Oh I love him!
R.I.P MIMI
Mimi Dudley I am the Sam Cooke of my generation Rising Chicago Artist please give me a listen 🙏🏿🎥🔥👣
Gawd bless you sweetie
he told me before dying that he loved you too. Idiot wife
Sam Cooke, one of the only black artists who owned his own music (allegedly)
He was a clever man!
Curtis Mayfield owned his own music too
+Benedict Cumberbatch ide put u in that dungeon you litle bitch. Sam cooke the greatest
Benedict Cumberbatch shut up bitch
Him Jimi Hendrix and Otis Redding. All three gone before age 35....!
R. I. P. Sam you are one of my favourite singers and you will always be.
I miss Sam Cooke it makes my sad that he's not here today
Me too. I miss him much!
... he would be 100 y o ... ah ah ah ..
I could see denzel washington playing him in a movie
He's too old now.
scarface82us what about chiwetel ejiofor
that could work but then we would have to find a younger person to play his younger self but I thought the same thing
Corey Hawkins.....!
I'm kinda thinking Donald Glover
What a wonderful man and singer. I feel for Sam Cooke. I can't imagine anyone hurting him. He seemed so full of light. A real talent and treasure that sang like an angel.

I love this man with a passion. RIP SAM!
I love him too with a passion....so much I wish I could make passionate love to Sam and have him 4Ever! Yes I dooooooooooo!!!!!!
One Night in Miami brought me here! He was such a talent.
I was just 10 when he was killed,but,I remember hearing it on the radio. My mom and I cried. You didnt have to be black to be hurt by his loss.That didnt matter.
So much was lost with his death.

Arguably the greatest voice out of motown. Gone too soon
it's been 50 years. RIP Sam
He was a beautiful man with a great voice.
"What's the greatest thing that could ever happen to you?" .."Um If All the singers that I'm connected with had hits" Man Oh Man. He never got to see Aretha Franklin become "Aretha". He would have been in awe.

I'm 38 and grew up listening to Sam my lil mum loved him can't believe this was only months before he died 😭
You can't get rid of Sam Cooke that easily Bertha. His body is gone, but his spirit lives on.
He had such a genuine and contagious personality
He seems so smooth and tranquil!
His talking voice sounds so beautiful. I would love to have heard him speaking French 😍😍😍
Hey had such a beautiful smile. I love him so much!
God bless Sam Cooke and Dick Clark. They both gave us so much.
this interview was taken a few months before his death... :( he shouldn't have died so young.

Thank you Sam for your inspiration

He seemed like a real cool and laid back man. And so handsome too! That smile! Ooooo weeee!
I never knew it was possible to hear him speak. This is great!
Dick Clark always seemed like a nice guy & Sam seemed so amazingly charming.
I love his talking voice
I wish he saw all his kids grow up, whether in wedlock or out of wedlock. He would be proud of them😣
What an amazing person Sam Cooke was. His life was tragically cut short yet his legacy lives on.
Talented, well-mannered, good-looking young man.
What a fucking waste.
thanks to bertha franklin and elisa boyer..
Possibly true but there are many unanswered questions about his death or murder. The Sam Cooke lying in state looks pretty beat up to have just been shot and hit by a woman with a broom handle.
+Shandra9000mail you believe that story? his wife was Parr of the setup that killed him
the greatest soul singer ever ,ever ,god bless sam where ever you are .
He was murdered shortly after this
Sam's killers was watching this show and hearing his goals is why.
What a great guy Sam Cooke was, wish I could have met him. R.I.P. Mr. Cooke. ✝
An amazing talent. Gone too soon. RIP
I wish he never told the world he wrote all those songs...Those greedy devils
...R.I.H
Yes, and Sam wrote all those songs in just 6 years span.
My birthday twin💜 01/22 love him...
Mine is 23rd. We all miss him dearly!

He was a beautiful man. Dick Clark was good looking too.
@dwone jones how pathetic do you have to be, to be jealous of someone who's been dead since the 1960s?
i wish he was still liveing we need that old sound back and it still stands out to this day
Such charm, such talent, such presence! It's sad that Sam was shot down at such a young age at the peak of his career.
Sam Cooke looked like he was a fun person to be around great energy it’s such a shame how he went out in the end beaten with a broom stick & shot like that smh we lost a such a wonderful talent RIP Sam!
Killed by the mob.
There was and never will be anyone as great as mr Sam Cooke 💯❤️

Sam Cooke is King Forever and a Day.
I just adore Sam Cooke
I love you Sam! You are so Gorgeous and I believe your killers were watching this show and learning of your powerful goals. They didn't like these goals of yours because this would make you a powerful Black man during your time and future times.
Leslie Odom Jr. quoted Sam about how he writes songs in the movie One Night In Miami.
Very handsome, charismatic man. What a waste. He was extremely talented.
What a legend. Priceless interview.
Miss him so much! Such a great talent gone way too soon...
Sam looking like a young denzel here,RIP!
