RIP to a blessed legend the Gift Of Gab. I really hope Bleacher Report gets this ad on to tonights nba playoff game to pay tribute to this great and talented human being that we lost today. One Love.
This is so well done! LOVE this video. As a student of animation, I loved every single second of this piece. Not to mention Blackalicious on bump, remixing one of their classics!.... i remember when they played this on Inside the NBA on TNT..... It got nothing but dumbfounded reactions from the Panel.... Ah well. Sometimes, true works of art cant always please :S

+Quinn Tate nope
A prime example of what dope is.
couldn't say it any better ;)
This is _genius_.
This came up as an ad and I'm liking it just because the time that must've went into the lyrics and animation is awesome.
Why cant all ads be this entertaining? Step up your game marketing teams.
The only UA-cam ad I will not skip
My eyes were glued to the screen through the entirety of this ad. Well done.
I don't know why, but I freaking love animated rap music videos. Gets me the right way for some reason.
this animation is SPOT ON
This is easily the best video on youtube.
There can never enough Gift of Gab, and the animations were amazing. Great job!
Easily the best AD I've ever seen
This honestly one of my favorite raps.
RIP Gab this was a banger
It’s about time we get another one of these, I always come back to these when it’s fall. 💯. Save a man’s closure in these dry times
This is the best ad on earth
Lyrics are Dope, Animations are gorgeous, More please!
2024 and I still search this thing up
1:45 nice Itachi reference
Lmao

i like it
+Endless Malice it was too fast i could not hear it what was it?
+DameonPie It wasn't the words it was the imagery.
The beginning when they showed to two guys was badass and the intro to the letter A was badass
I saw part of this on Adult Swim.
I typed this a year ago? 🤔
I typed this *2* years ago? 🤔🤔
Source?
Feeling really bad for the people that use AdBlock now

this video has just made it to the elite few I have not skipped. 🔥🔥🔥
I love Gift of Gab from Blackalicious!!! Easily one of the greatest rappers ever

I love this song and the beat and the video is gorgeous
UNDENIABLE UNADULTERATED TALENT🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Listening to this before school, it's pretty motivational.
If only all ads were this awesome...
You know you've mastered an ad if people look it up. What kind of person would dislike this?
So dope. Make more of these commercials, please!
All these art styles
u know an Ad works when instead of skipping, u l👀k it up
I don't always like to watch some of the ads that pop up before videos, but I had to watch this. This is amazing.
saw a segment of this on adult swim and just had to find the rest. ultimate like
Everytime I see this I sit back and chill. I love this.
This was the greatest thing I've ever seen and heard. I'm not even kidding
The first ad on youtube that i watch back and love
this was on a commercial I watched :) it really caught my ear and eyes when it came on :D good job to everyone!
I love this video
Was brought here by an advert and I was so glad I didnt skip it!
this is so good, I can't stop watching
Ad of the year should be a thing
This gonna go viral
i seriously cant stop watching this.....This is pretty much the reason why i actually want to become a animator
FRESH AF THIS IS TALENT!!!
lol, sometimes youtube ad's makes my day better
I can never get over these amazing animations. Three thumbs up.
All the animations look like Xbox One gamer pictures. Anyone agree?
Yea
so true
agreed
maybe they are some of the same artists
+Bulletsauce The gamerpics were all made by ppl in the community, which is why they're so weird.
Alley-alley-alley-alley-oop on amateurs
Air above all and any actors that’s average
Big barbarian basically beasting
Biters get blown up being brave, beatings
Casually, I chef cash cheddar, fools get
casualties and caught off guard with chin music
Dirty when I drop dimes damaging the dang earth
Devastate the defense detonate danger
Entertainer entertaining everyone and every mass
Enemies is envious ain’t even peep the elbow pass
Fire en fuego flick of the wrist foes in
Fear of the fury left flattened and frozen
Gloves off for the glass jaw by the goons
G.O.A.T of all G.O.A.T.S gone giddy gettin’ through
Human joystick, heating up, heat check BLAM
Hit ‘em hard, hella hyped, hero going H.A.M.
I’m isolated on islands it’s over, it’s over
Ice in your veins getting colder
Juke jock jerk to those who aren’t worthy
Jamming through my journey in a jet black jersey
King Kong of K.O.s kid kiss the ring
Knuckle up now with the knuckle buck king
Lemme live a long life leading with my laces out
Right now losers look up cause it’s lights out
My moves marvelous, money shot, massive
Main event, moon-shot, MVP, master
Nails in the coffin knots in their knees, triumph
Nutmeg through their knees nothing but nylon
Opposition oft on the ropes in the octagon
One-two, punched out, lights going off and on
Pillow picked passes of prolific poetry
Power plays, pickpocketing petty phonies
Quest for the cup, it’s quantum y’all, quote me
Quiet all quitters feeling qualms when we’re quarreling
Raw ringside riots relish and remain
Rallying, rough rated rhymes make it rain
Swishin’ on simple soft suckers spitting swag
Slice dice shimmy nothing-but-net, splash.
Turnt up, taking out timid minds. Twister.
Leave ‘em turnt out, they are truck stick victims
Unstoppable ups, stay uninvolved
Unanimous, universal, year of the underdog
Vicious and vital, victories calling
Volley y’all out victorious velocity
Bob and weave well, wide receiving words woven
Moonwalk when I whip, get the world open
X-celling, X-treme, X-tra X-plosive
X-hilarating X-out competition so quick
Yolo pass rhymes, y’all young bucks fall
Yoga stretch rhymes yelling yiggy yes y’alls
Zero zero zero on the clock, game’s over
zoomin to the zenith, zero out, in my zone, ZONING!!!
lol
Thank you
I only knew the first couple of lines of this song so when my music teacher said " WHO HERE KNOWS THE SPORTS ALPHABET?" everyone pointed at me and i had ONE DAY to study this song and then perform it on a school assembly.

Hard to believe that song by Blackalicious called Alphabet Aerobics was back in 1999. Glad to have rediscovered it.
The subtitles are actually useful! Wow!

R. I.P. Gift Of Gab.
