Let's also honor the creator and innovator of this wonderful piece of music..AHMAD JAMAL...As of this writing he is 92 years old. This peice is called "Swahili-land" and he released it in 1974. Please pray for him, he is truly a musical treasure.
Indeed he is and criminally underrated
Respect
#AhmadJamal4Eva
Q-Tip observed many years ago that MCs do the same thing, lyrically, that jazz musicians do melodically. Love and appreciation to jazz MASTERS like Bro. Ahmad Jamal for laying down the REAL blueprint. Many of us Tru headz love Hip Hop and straight ahead jazz too.
Unfortunately he is now moved on from this mortal plane. S.I.P Good Sir 🙏🏾 💐 ✊🏾
I'm 57 years old, De La Soul is Top 5 for me. I recently said I can't imagine going to another hip hop show...I stand corrected if I could find this type of show I'm going to be right there.
That part where Ma Dukes was looking at the chair like she was telling J Dilla "Im proud of you son, you made this possible" that was deep. What a wonderful performance.
Facts!
Literally tears me up! So beautiful to see
Brought tears to my eyes.
Yeah man I tear up everytime.... 🙏🏼
Tears of joy 🙏 amazing!
Awww man , this part man 6:14 , so heart touching.
🙏🏽🕊🖤 Rest Up Dilla👽🍰
Bless the conductor for arranging it all and that drummer murdered that beat 👌 Rip Dilla💓
Man I got the chills once the beat dropped
word
Me too the hairs on my arms LITERALLY STOOD UP!!!
If you don't get goosebumps then something is wrong with you. J-Dilla didn't just change my life. He changed the world 🌎
I didn't know it was possible to love Stakes is High more, until know!
Natalie B i do every time.
Agreed!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve played this song.. It puts me into an amazing mood.. “Love vibrations”... I’ve created so many art pieces while playing this high vibrational collaboration.. Much much love 💕

That part💯
J Dilla produced one of the most classic beats....R.I.P.
Nearly 2 decades in, stakes is hign is still keeping me alive.
Leaving the open seat with the Cello for Dilla was amazing. He grew up on that instrument and a ear for music. One day people will realise what real music is too much materialism and greed but the world will reap what it's sown Realist lyrics.
after seeing this, i keep faith about how our humanity can create wonderful things. Thank you !
Ma Dukes should be proud. Her son inspired three generations of producers.
Perzon wordd
This one is timeless. Imagine someone listening to this in 3000. Love ...Vibration.

6:13 to 6:23 brought a tear to my eye.... may not be what it is, but seemed as tho Ma Dukes was lookin at the chair where her son was supposed to be.... R.I.P. J DIL
She seems to have a focus on the chair for more than those 10s if you look before... A deep focus. But definitely stealing some tears from our eyes. definitely.
i feel ya. tears were flow'n
Just coming across this, what an amazing live performance. RIP to Jay Dee & Trugoy 🕊️🕯️
this arrangement is EVERYTHING to me. so full of love and peace.
I agree
Absolutely
Ear candy for the soul! God bless JDilla, DeLa, Talib and Robert Glasper!
I love J Dilla. Peace to all his family. Dilla was beyond official. Ma Dukes u the best.
The orchestration was tight and the drummer is a beast!!!
Karriem Riggins on the drums!
@@clappedoutmotor Detroit's Own
Thundercat is on the bass too check him out if you don’t know him
@@skibooski6884 oh shit! That is amazing
@@jorggggggg legendary lineup
They made this rendition a classic in itself.....awesome!.....Rest In Paradise J. Dilla, your legacy and love of music lives on!
Also don't forget the genius of Ahmad Jamal
Have you heard about the cover band out of Europe, Ahmad?
6:15 is definitely a major tearjerker. You ain't a real Dilla head if you ain't cried at 6:13
When I 1st played the DVD some time ago it killed me. Still does.
Shay that's unfair to the dilla fans that feel it inside
doesnt get any easier everytime i watch it, that empty seat is too much.
I cried. The parent should never have to bury the child, especially one was gifted as him.
R.I.P., Trugoy the Dove.🥀✌🏾♥️
REAL HIP-HOP REAL TALENT REAL BARS REAL LYRICS A REAL MESSAGE 💯
I actually want to cry
I do every time i watch this...
Louis Bynoe go ahead ...
Don't Cry
I did
Did
only a group as great as De La Soul can bring Mama Cass back from the dead...i see u.
im so glad i bought the actual copy of this whole event. makes me cry every time. RIP J DILLA you were so great we miss you JD.
Words cant describe how beautiful this sounds. The conductor and drummer held that pocket tight!!
The drummer and whoever is on they bass is killin it at the end
karriem riggins on drums
@@bevboyz Nice 👍🏾
Who is playing electric bass on this concert is just Thundercat
If you think the offbeat grooves are less than flowing... you should get a Thelonius Monk primer. This is superb shit... best take the ride, "Stakes is High"!!!
I haven't felt goosebumps like this since the first tribute I heard to Dilla. My neck is tweaked from nodding too hard at this
My feelings about this thing will never get cold, cause for me, it's absolutely perfect. And the moment, when Ma Dukes is looking at the chair with cello!!! So strong, so deep, almost to cry.. Dilla forever!
I cried watching this... so powerful!
2B87 I did the same thing. tears just flowing. it embodies so many emotions. from the meaning of the song's relevance to the absence of dilla.
This would be something else to see live!!!
My most favorite hip hop composition of all time! r.i.p. J Dilla & Trugoy aka Dave
Fuck where have I been all this time? This is way too dope!
I swear I said the same thing. I feel like I walked past $100.00 on the street.
Excellent way of putting it! I first heard this on the Gilles Peterson show- such a beautiful, beautiful song:). I still listen to the original of course- but this is bliss!
BLISS! Yes! I just close my eyes and float...
I am ashamed to be discovering this in "22"
Dope Dilla face sticker on my back windshield rollin' around Detroit showing respect like I'm spose to. Dilla will always be our Hometown Hero! Rest In Beats
I cried listening to the first few minutes. I love me some Talib but the music…my gaad.
I love this music! Thanks for everything Jamal and Trugoy; your legacies and talents will live on 💙
Man I miss Dilla. Dilla is da GOD of music. His sound is da soundtrack of my life
the conductor dude is the one 1:11
@J A he’s mixed 😭
Love his passion for the music...
so much history to unpack in this one video this is biblical i see peanut butter wolf in the back who else is there
is that uhh j rawls in the back to?
All Love to Ma Dukes for producing a Great Producer !!!
As I am now 50yrs old I could really appreciate this especially if as fan since back in da dayz when folks thought our music was trash & now those same negatives they all now totally get it..👍🏽
🎉 on the sountrack of my life. like my accompanist said to after my freshman recital, “you owe me a couple”.
Some lucky human beings that sat audience to this tribute.
Still makes me so emotional
Cool to see Talib Kweli on this live since he wasn't in the original video. Peace and love to all conscious thinkers!
dJ House Shoes, Dwele, Bilal, Miss Jack Davey? Dopeness! That stage was historic!
From a period, for me, where hip-hop hit the high water mark. My response is purely visceral. Strong Island indeed.
A producer who can make you feel so many emotions just off the beat alone is simply amazing. This isnt just music, its an experience. J Dilla's legacy will forever live on. R.I.P. Jay Dee
this made me cry
Even when you orchestrate it, Dilla still breaks necks. RIP Dilla
Miguel Atwood Ferguson with that fire arrangement
All the comments are positive energy that will grab other humans souls!
YOOOOOOOOOOO I see my nigga DJ HOUSESHOES up there on stage with LEGEND "PLUG-ONE"!
Seeing MaDukes I lost it
Sometimes an angel visits us and brings some joy and happyness..
sounds so good I could almost cry!!!!
Stakes is High-MASTERPIECE
10 years later and it's still so beautiful...
not the first time hip hop has brought a tear to my eye .. peace
Wow, this just takes me back. It's almost like I can remember everything I was doing during that exact time I heard the original version. Dilla lives on forever through us, don't ever let it go.
Everytime I watch this, and other clips from this night, I just think to my myself, this must have been such an emotional night....
First of All Stakes is my fav De La album! This shit is beautiful!
Dion Parker whenever I have misic talks with my brother, I always somehow mention how "Stakes Is High", is the "Midnight Marauders" of De La albums.
(Midnight being my favorite overall album of all time)
MA DUKES !!!!! What up doe?? This is beautiful- salutes and mad love
Once I got this privilege to hugg Pos after De La gig in the Spirit club of Dublin, and it was electrifying. Like he gave me some energy boost, these guys are special.
R.I.P. will truly be missed.
RIP Dilla and Dove
wow
that was life changing
Hell yes! This is so beautiful! Damn I'd love to smoke a chronic bowl and just let the beats vibrate around me and become one with them (vibrations). Let it resonate with my soul's frequency.
Still listening in 2020. J Dilla in our hearts forever.
Tears in my eyes
this is AMAZING! long live the DILLA the undisputed KING OF BEATS...
Mad goosebumps from this shit. Rest up James. You are and always will be, the best to ever do it.
RIP Dave and J Dilla!!😢
I never thought this song could get any better
Now this is real music right here
MA DUKES FOR LIFE
Sleep Peacefully Dilla 🎛 & Dove 🕊 ❤❤
yo when they show the empty chain towards the end... tears....
Goosebumps everywhere-amazing performance and I never heard this before, org only .
So many years later and this still brings tears to my eyes. I remember I used to listen to this while I was still in high school, now I’m in my 30s, and imma still bop this in my 60s and 90s
Such a powerful moment when Pos enters with his classic lyrics. Legendary. Only if Dave could've been there too... (health problems at the time?)
But Kweli is great, and they sound great together. Is Karriem sleeping a little at 1:00?? Probably mesmerized by the music...
Watching this about a decade ago, put me on Miguel Atwood-Ferguson orchestra
In tears
always been one of my fav De La tracks
Man, this is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❣️
Saw them live at the Cape Town Jazz festival with my girl. She is into classical music and all that but loves hip hop and most importantly J Dilla because of this.
Stakes is High best damn version OMG...Literally couldnt sit still....and ma Dukes...wow...
Absolutely Golden...
Real Music Right Here,so beautiful to see that is still happening
I'm an atheist and this was pure church
Love that his mum is up on the stage singing to 😁 ❤️
I said got damn and hot damn this is straight up fiyah.
Had to cop this DVD
Vernell Thomas Where?
@@habs4life13 It was at HMV 10 years ago... That's in the UK. I have no idea about today, BUT DO.
that intro brought chills
The Instrumental is so very beautiful ❤️
To make sure that you have clarity
The Instrumental is soothingly beautiful.
Wow...Native Tongues became SoulQuarians.....do you see the artistry on the stage....wow...jus kno discovering this! Dope! S/O to JDilla
J Dilla will go into the history books as one of the best producers/musicians. Mind blogging how he has influenced a lot of artists! It’s incredible. I love him!
