Rest In Power Malik, used to recite these lyrics all day everyday. You will be missed. Prayers to your family, friends and loved ones.
I recite these lyrics every day to this day. RIP Malik B. Gonna keep on playing these amazing songs
I bought this album as a 13 year old white boy from suburban London. Opened my ears to real hip hop and jazz. RIP MALIK B
That's Dope 💯🎯
Lmao same a middle school white kid from Texas and just stumbled upon this album at a record store with a Christmas gift card. My life was changed. Black Thought still my favorite MC of all time
@stantoncagle8185 Haha! Look at all us white boys up on the real HipHop. I was like 14 in Brooklyn NY when this came out. This and Nas illmatic. 2 best albums
Americans teach y’all brits about hip hop 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 PEACE PHILLY
You said it
Damn. Think about it. When we were all jamming to this and other hip hop of yesterdays, we never thought this sound would cease to exist. I never thought hip hop would NOT be classic. I thank God that I grew up during the classic years. I wouldn't be the person I am today without this. Classic Hip Hop makes me so proud.
+TheStawberryCupcake Amen...
Indeed
We never thought hip hop would be for the sellouts
Check out Griselda and Freddie Gibbs (specifically Bandana & Piñata)

I miss those 90s tri-state jazzy melodies. So nostalgic
My dude! You have an ear for music.
90s Northeast Corridor Hop Hop Jazz.
J Dilla and NO ID did the same for the Great Lakes in the 90s
philly aint part of the tri state but hey i agree with the sentiment
@@jonathansoko1085 Who's " Tri State?" cause we got our own
@@billyjacc When someone says Tri-State, the term comes from NY-CT-NJ, thats the original tri state and actual meaning of the term. Since then people apply it to other places, but when tri state is said, that is usually what it means. Often people will lump Philly into it when they say it and i dont have issue with that. You can apply the term to other places, but its not really right terminology.
R.I.P. Malik… R.I.P. Leanord Hubbard… 😞
Hub passed, didn’t no that, my condolences
RIP MALIK B. YOU DIED A LEGEND. YOUR MEMORY WILL ALWAYS LIVE ON THRU YOUR CLASSIC MUSIC. DAMN
I always respected the Roots more than most because they played their own instruments and their live shows are amazing
Facts
😍
I’m a white kid from Texas so my dad’s big thing about rap was obviously “oh it’s not music they don’t play instruments.” You can imagine the look on my face when I discovered The Roots and showed him he was wrong. Black Thought my favorite MC to this day.
If this song doesn't take you somewhere else when you hear it, you haven't been anywhere yet............
I know EXACTLY what you mean!!!
Doc Tor Damn. You feel it like I feel it. Your statement is EXACTLY what I say each time I hear this track. It takes me somewhere. It paints a landscape and invokes memories, feelings, visions, colors I forgot about up until this track starts. Beauty.
The Grateful should understand.
So true.
Hell yeah
Malik is the only emcee who can match bar 4 bar or stand w/ Black Thought nobody else comes close
May ALLAH be pleased w/ Our Brother
📠
Ummm Big Pun gave him a run for his money #factz
@@bornc1619 EXACTLY. #bigpunforever
i have come to conclusion..black thought is the most slept on mcees..this man is a legend..made for hip hop
Black thought has been in my top 5 since 94
Alex Ndichu Black Thought is definitely slept on. He is talented as fuck lyrically. Around this time Nas,Gza, were his superiors but he is lyrically better than both today.
Always been my top 3:BLACK THOUGHT, YASIN BEY(MOS DEF) and EMINEM
Lyrically superior than even overhyped Eminem
I knew Black Thought's lyrical ability was dam serious when I heard him on Super Lyrical with Big Pun, man's versatile, he can make smooth Hip Hop songs and then murderous Hip Hop songs.
The Roots have some of the best production in music period. Just the element of live instruments set them apart from so many down to this day
The rapping and jazz blends marvelously.
Its amazing
"Like a nerd, I could make you say, 'He's superb!'" Worded perfect!
Malik B. 2020. Godspeed, captain.
They all look SO YOUNG AND INNOCENT. Loved them then, love them now.
The Roots have to be in your top 10 list of the greatest Hip Hop artists. Nothing but classics. Quest Love is one of the best producers ever. Much love from Baltimore.
This will never stop being incredible.
Rip to MB! Og Mc mad underrated holds his own with black on every tracks not many mcs can say that
Malik means Master or Ruler. He was much more powerful than mere music. For those he touched I hope you heeded his true power and take up the banner. This genre in its purest form has the power to move mountains and this is what we need right now.
One of the most slept on HIP-HOP joints EVER!! CLASSIC...
I wouldnt say its slept on, this is a classic to all real hiphop heads and the album did good.
@politic1148 I said it 13 years ago, and I will it again, I said instrumentation in classic hip-hop culture by the legendary roots crew and others was and were SLEPT on!! The answer is all of the above and more as what you said!! To me, Hip hop embraces artistic elements, most definitely. But it also has blended and transcended them to become a means for seeing, celebrating, experiencing, understanding, confronting, and commenting on life and the world. Hip hop, in other words, is a way of living!! a culture in hip-hop!! And I feel, this classic album in 1994, "Do You Want More?!!!??!" WAS SLEPT ON!! 💯💯💯
Classic hip hop from the legendary Roots crew.
R.I.P Malik B... You was definitely a real one....Illadelph and the Hip Hop world will forever miss you!!! Peace King!!!
How did he die?
This takes me back to happier times.
Yes. I’m happy in this moment with ya
I love this kind of hip hop, I love New York jazzy sounds of hip hop. The music videos was so amazing I love how they showed streets of New York and made you feel like you was in New York watching the video.
Totally agree. My favorites
They’re from Philly and this video is not New York lol
Early morning vibes
X-Phaze Right. Jazz is usually good mornin music.
The Roots... Proceed and give me what i need. that real hip hop for the brain and the soul
Black Thought used to have a nose piercing? Wow, I've been listening to The Roots for a long time and never noticed. Love this song, Do You Want More is a masterpiece
If someone told me in the mid 90's The Roots would be the house band on the tonight show i would have thought they were crazy!! Just Awesome!! These guys bring me waaayyyy back to when rap music was good. :-)
Absolutely. These guys, especially ?uestlove & Black Thought, were REAL Hip hop artists. They didn't talk guns and drugs and money and cars. Or even have all these fancy nice looking women to make them look good. They just enjoyed what they did. They didn't need money and glamour. They just had fun. And I respect it.
RIP Malik B- I’m sorry that you have ascended to your next portal. What you have left behind surely will not be forgotten.
True hip hop from true musicians!!! I love their jazzy sound, very relaxing
Black Thought is a GOAT but I always like the Roots albums better when Malik B was more involved. He's was crazy nice too and they had such great chemistry on the mic.
Agreed malik b was nice ! It wasn't that much of a dropoff lyrically between the two

Yup
RIP
@@JBaked Aw f%#k
Happy Birthday Mr. Tariq Trotter A.K.A Black Thought. salute from Mozambique!
A.K.A. The Bad Lieutenant
1996, University of Cincinnati, Roots and De La Soul played to about 800 students. Amazing!
Black thought in my opinion is possibly the GOAT of hip-hop...
It's arguable, but that title is like Baskin Robbins, it has MANY flavors like Guru, Mos Def, Common, CL Smooth and Pete Rock, De La Soul, man it's ENDLESS who can hold this title
So my man Mos def don't get no props?
May Allah have a lot of mercy brother Malik
💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾I shall proceed and continue to rock da mic🎧🎶🎼🎵🎤🎤🎤
Jazz and hip hop use to be Inlove in the 90's and 2000's
Check out Blu & Exile's new album "Miles" (and their album Below The Heavens) and Lupe Fiasco's album "Drogas Wave" for some current jazz hip hop. Fashawns album "Boy Meets World" is great too
Big up
Yes!! Tribe used to put out those gems with twist of Jazz too
This Neo Soul atmosphere in that song ! Definitely love it.
I still have this song Proceed on the original cassette single tape released in 1994 from Geffen Records. The B side of this cassette single LP features Bahamadia on this same song Proceed as a collaborative duo. C-L-A-S-S-I-C!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, that's dope
I've heard it.. its incredible thought Bahamdia was gonna be the female Nas then she was flowing like water real smooth ...
Her album was a classic
@@Cameo718.
No doubt. I still own Bahamadia's first album Kollage on the original clear cassette tape released in 1996 from Chrysalis Records having two copies to be exact both censored and uncensored versions. A bonafide debut C-L-A-S-S-I-C from a perennial femcee with outstanding production from DJ Premier and the Guru.
@@wesleypipes2590
Bahamadia's first album Kollage is still a C-L-A-S-S-I-C.
R.I.P MALIK!!!!
Malik B
R.I.P. Malik B. I'm here to watch Malik perform one of my favorite verses on this video

The roots, de la soul, A tribe called quest were some of the greats man
Love that jazzy vibes

Smoke the blunt with these dudes on stage at a concert New York City 1995
Before Philly and New York started sounding like THE SOUTH
Word!
True, true true!!
jordan Johnson why do you act like there has to be be rules which area sounds like what? ASAP rocky and mob brought the sound of the south to east coast
Sad but true. Way more diversity in hip hop back then on a national level. Each area had it’s own distinct sound and flavor.
@@SuisLBC that's what makes each section unique stupid
The Roots = REAL HIP HOP
The Roots music has helped me through rough times in life. Would love to meet them. Plus have a conversation with them. Black Thought...keep pushing the envelope with those sharp lyrics that contains precision . the band keep making great quality music that inspires a nation. Together..you guys are one. Keep building. Peace
R.I.P Hub
The 90 WAS A BEAUTIFUL THING..HIP HOP IS DEFINITELY DRAD!
I grew up in Philly and the Roots and I shared the same ganja connection amd circle of friends…been to some parties where they played along with The Goats
That bass line!
Damn 93...sheesh. I had so many classic during my teenage years in the 90's. Long live the 90's the best hip hop Era ever
Best release in my in youth
First time listening to The Roots...shiiid blew my mind. Even up to this Day Black Thought killing anything top 10 spitta everrr
REST IN PEACE MALIK B. WISHING YOU PEACE ON YOUR JOURNEY
cant we all just get along!! May Allah forgive Malik b and grant him paradise!!
Still fresh for the '17!!!
R.ip malik b 1 of my favorite philly spitters
Black Thought too nice!! Always had infinite bars!!!
RIP Malik B. DAMN.
I defiantly woke up to this back in the day
I remember hearing this on an Orlando college radio show hosted by a dude named IsReal and driving all around town with my friends looking for this single. The Roots have a special place in Hip-Hop
Love....love...love this song. This was one of my favorite study jams!!!
23 years today!
salute from Mozambique
I just came through to pay my respects to Malik B. This might not be their most technically perfect song, but it’s my favorite song by the roots to this day...
These were some of my greatest days right here! This and Distortion to Static!
Giving you hip hop is The Roots. Represent!!!!!
Rest easy 👨 Malik B grew up listening to this early 90s much ✊ 💯!!!
Black thought =non stop head bopping
25 years later we up in here!! 🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
Malik B don't get the props he deserve homie was a beast.
No big deal. Just one of the greatest emcees to ever live introducing himself to planet earth.
waoooo 94 and the roots wass like this !!! im remember 94 you mtv raps first thime the roots !!!
Chef d'œuvre..
Malik B Allah y Rarmou alik !!!
I miss the 90`s :-(
This is a very underrated group, in my opinion. The lead MC and the band was just sick. They were must needed for Hip Hop. A band along with an MC. Who thought of this, I wonder?
The Roots Forever
Malik Abdul-Basit REST IN POWER!!!
The Roots was always Black Thought and Malik B for me thats how it started! The Roots was still good with Black Thought but every album I would still be looking for Malik B!
Thank you Malik B. You and your family are in our prayers
Blaaaaack Thouuuuuggghhhtttt 4ever & ever.
The next time someone asks me what I'm going to do, my reply will be:" I shall proceed and continue to the rock the mic!" Lol!! Man, I miss the cool vibes of 1995.
THisd is the first one I heard. To this day this jam stands the test of time
One of the greatest! I shall...
This there first song
Miss these good old days. RIP Malik B, you were one of the illest on the mic.
The old line up Thought, Malik,Dice,Quest, Kenyatta ,Hub ,Kamal
Journey well to Leonard Hubbard "Hub" and Malik B. You're greatly missed 🙏🏾❤
