This one made me even more emotional because Kanye made a birthday video for Kim, and it was mostly about the bond she and her dad and it was the same Track. And like, FUCK that’s emotional.
Paul said that he was playing the piano while he was telling Kanye how Let It Be was about his mom reassuring him in a dream. Kanye then said he wanted to make a song about his mom.
"Well, I Was Sleeping, Y'Know, And My Mother, Who Passed When I Was Very Young, Y'Know, She Appeared In A Dream, Y'Know, And She Told Me, Y'Know, Very Gently To Just Let It Be, And So The Next Morning I Went Right Over To The Piano, Y'Know, And I Began To, Y'Know, Write The Song, Y'Know"
@@bloomhh7639 He says that he had a dream, where his mother, Mary came to him and said "Let It Be" and he made a song about it! He talks about it in a lot of interviews
@@dylan6366This song is sung from the perspective of his late mother, Donda, in the form of a heavenly message of consolation towards Ye (‘Mari) with his grief, and growing worries as a father to his daughter North (Nori).
@ima hunt if only you knew the talent kanye is. Guys fell apart now since his mum died. When his head was in right place he was one of best on planet. You dont have to understand him. But if the singers from the biggest band of all time want to do song with him hes obviously not a "hack"
@ima hunt you're obviously hurting inside so you take it out on others. Because hurt people, hurt people. I hope you heal. "It's a hard road to heaven." Take care
My boyfriend died and his funeral was today. This song, which he said reminded him of me, was playing as we walked into the service. I felt like maybe it was a little sign he’s still here. I feel broken and incomplete without him. I miss him. I love you, Adam.
My mother died of cancer in 2015, every time I hear this song, the tears flow. My son was born in January 2022, and I hear mum speaking to me through these lyrics. This is more than a piece of music, it is a bridge to the beloved passed.
True that brother, I lost my mum to cancer in 2021 and have 2 young kids. It's breaks my heart that she can't spend time with them, and I know Kanye feels the same about his Mum. This song gives me hope that there is still a connection.
the fact that Kanye doesn't even recall recording these vocals as he believes his mother was telling him what to say makes this song 100x more meaningful when considering that the song is Donda's perspective on North and Ye. Kanye also means 'Only One' which is why Donda named him that after her only son.
Those who judge wont understand until they are in "That Club"... it's not pretty folks. It's an ugly trip. I pray you have the peace beyond what is normal when you are going through your trip.
I read this after I posted just now. But I had the same feeling as you once I put this song on. Started my day with Champion this morning and then switched over to Can't tell me nothing. I love his whole catalogue and if you dislike Kanye don't ask me about him because I am going to ruin your day (respectfully).
I just realized when he said "I talked God about you, he said he sent you an angel , look at all that he gave you, you asked for 1 and you got 2" he's talking about kim and north , Soo cute!!!! 😭💜
The way "tell Nory' about me" hits soooo hard now that Donda has reached the entire world. When i hear that line it immediately puts the image of north dancing infront of Ye's childhood home in my mind. Art that reflect life like this is so much deeper and valuable than a hit.
This song makes me cry every time. These are the words I wish that my own parents said to me. To be supported and reminded that you’re not a piece of shit
TheHokahSmokeKid So, you couldn't think of a valid comment that would suffice for, well whatever you were trying to do. Im assuming you were trying to start an argument with me. Save your little swears and childish words. You're not very good at starting an argument... Good day, Sir. :3
Say what you want about Kanye's last few albums, he's still the greatest artist of the 2000's period. Nobody has made more influential music or inspired a generation like he has.
I think all great artists have some misses. If you swing big and take risks it won’t always pay off. And it hasn’t always payed off for Kanye. But the fact that he’s willing to make the moves he does is precisely why he’s a great artist. And the fact that he’s been able to do it and exist in the mainstream is even more significant. Lou Reed and Bowie weren’t the top hitmakers of their time. His only equivalent is like The Beatles probably.
Idk. at first JIK didn't impress me. Played it through a couple more times, listened to it properly. Now one of my preferred Kanye albums. Not much of his I don't like though, tbh.
I usually don’t listen to rap at all but Kanye drew my interest with his behavior over the years and I’ve been very shocked at how beautiful his music is.
@Prodigal Son I'm guessing that sarcasm But all I heard him say about Hitler was that he loves him which as a Christian you are called to love even your enemies.
This song makes me cry without fail, even just thinking the lyrics in my head. My grandma raised me from the time I was 2 weeks old until she passed when I was 12. Things got incredibly tough for me after her passing - sexual trauma, constant new homes, mental health issues. Things that could have let break me, but I always had my omi in my heart. When I hear this song, it feels like she is speaking to me. I imagine her at her healthiest, smiling, and making wonderful memories with me. Thank you for being there for me and loving me unconditionally Omi. Thank you Kanye for your music getting me through the thoughest parts of my life
when this song first came out, I thought it was lovely, but didn't necessarily relate to it. now, my mother is fighting for her life in an ICU... and its like a light switched on with my understanding of this song. it went from lovely to heart breakingly beautiful.
I will never forget when I went to a festival and Kanye was the only reason why I went. It was dark by the time he came on and I remember it was a rough patch in my life and listening to him perform Only One and it was slightly sprinkling over us and I looked up and just felt an emotion I will never be able to forget. I love Kanye’s music so much. Donda deserves all the love.
If DONDA is anywhere near as heartfelt as this song it could end up being one of his best albums. This is my all time favorite Ye song, makes me tear up every time. Just thinking of the story behind it makes you really appreciate your mom/parents if you still have them around.
The best part of growing up is finally realizing and understanding the meaning of songs. This song randomly came on in the grief cave about 6 months after my mother passed and I cried for hours. I love and hate this song because it makes me miss her so much but also puts in perspective how great my life has become and to keep going forward. I hear her voice in this song and it is a reminder to keep your head up.
Best Kanye song by a mile. No contest. This song explains Kanye’s entire psyche and materialises the love for his children and god like no other. You can feel the pain he felt when he lost his mum, the grandma to his children. Forever chills
man im crying so hard right now... lost my mama this year in february and her first grand baby was in my ladies stomach smh. i named her after you mama and imma tell her everything about you. she looks just like you and smiles from ear to ear everytime i talk about u. the holidays will be rough on me with you not being here. if it wasnt for my daughter i honestly dont know how i could go on without u ma
for those who don't really understand the song, its supposed to be Kayne's mother looking down on him and singing to him from heaven. (nori is north's nickname and thats why she is asking Kayne to tell North about her!) plz thumbs this up as it may help someone lol
Kanye could make a song farting the national anthem, puking at the same time and his fans would love it, calling him a genius, ? are they spell bond? Zombies? Or is it Just plan ole love for Mr. West? Anyway keep ya head up.
+Raynald Tremblay Yeah, it's not the best but the ones dislike it because if the auto tune, but not because of the storytelling of it. It's a good song if you know what he's talking about
+Raynald Tremblay he's using autotune in two ways, to make his voice into more of an instrument and as an effect to change his voice, as the song is about his mother talking to him and his daughter from heaven.
yeah i know what the song is about thats what im saying. i dont care if its autotuned its the meaning of the song that i like people hate it because of the autotune not the song
This is a Beatles heavy vibe song. It made me tear up a little bit, Paul said he was himself and he went back to when he was with John in that session. I just saw the get back documentary and Pauls vibe playing let it be, very similar to this one.
Quite a few artists do, hate that it can often be looked down upon. Don't think it's that different from using a distortion pedal while playing guitar.
You guys all understand what this song is about right? I'm not looking for a fight here at all. But I have to say that I hope that all of your families are in good health and with you. Because how dare anyone spit venom at an artist creating something for his mother that passed away. Be human for a minute. This dude talks crazy sometimes, we all know that, but talk about saying crazy things. There are people that came out of their way to trash him here. That's absolutely sad.
i agree. I might not be a huge fan of some of Kanye's songs but i like the simplicity and the message of this song. Sadly haters are still going to hate.
***** How about "my dad released 5 critically acclaimed albums in a row that were featured in Rolling Stones, revived Jay-z's career, paved the way for lots of hip hop artists, has been awarded with 21 grammys out of 57, is considered the greatest hip-hop artist of our generation AND worked with Paul Mccartney."
When this song first came out I didn’t think much of it but a couple years ago I lost my dad, my best friend in the whole world and every since then I can’t hear this song without bawling like a baby. It’s not my favorite Ye song but it’s the one that means the most to me. In a few minutes Ye was able to convey feelings that I can’t even begin to describe even years after losing my dad. All I can say is I’m forever grateful for this song because I’m still healing everyday and it’s not always easy to release these feelings on my own.
For real, every one hates him and little amount of people listen to his music 🎵 but once he gone he will be hella famous and outta nowhere he is gonna be loved and missed by everyone :/ thats how famous people death is, they here and nobody cares bout them but once they gone people act as if they cared about them when they were alive :/
@@johnny614 i woudln't say little people listen to his music he's one of the best selling acts of the past 2 decades and has had like 11 albums get in the top 100 in a row. let's not pretend he's underrated. he's definitely an amazing artist but underrated he is not.
So many people complain about how much of a "rude, disrespectful, and outrageous" person Kanye West is, but at the end of the day, the man is completely talented with what he does. He makes true art, and although he may be very opinionated, aren't we all? I give him so much respect for his hustle, and for being in his daughter's life. I hope one day I can inspire the world with my music the way Kanye continues to do each day. Feel free to give my songs a listen, if you like what you hear, that's all that really matters to me.
Dylan Maharaj People hate. It's homo sapiens sapiens ugly nature and might have been our saving grace back in the day. It serves no purpose anymore. At the end of the day Kanye is just another flawed human. Until we have ubiquitous transhuman tech the any hate is unwarranted and useless. I am pretty sure this guy knows what he is doing even with the autism levels of eccentricity.
In this song, I hear your happiness and sadness. I HOPE Kim and you Ye, remember how much you loved one another, and the greatest gift of all you two made together ❤️
Tajujuan Hill people hate kanye for a few reasons, because he bashed on the sweety little america's princess Taylor Swift, and because of his straight-forward personality, in other words because he says what he thinks, and since our society is so...but soooooooooooooooooo dumb, we will keep hating on kanye just because others do, we dont need a special reason, if u ask a kanye west hater why he hates he will say "because his music sucks and he's an asshole" you can ask them to explain those words, and they wont be able to.....i personally like kanye west works, as a matter of fact, he's my favorite rapper, and maybe my favorite singer. people need to start listening to the lyrics of his songs instead of spreading this automatic-hate.
It is literally a trend to hate kanye west because the man is a freethinker. Sure he is eccentric but it is because he doesn't think like the average person, and the average person just does not understand Kanye west. People tend to dislike things they can't comprehend. Kanye West is too complex for the media, and the masses.
"he sent you angel" reminds me of the angel necklace that Kanye got in his documentary, and Mama Donda was so happy about his chain. Makes me tear up a bit thinking about it.
olli449 Why? He deserves the money less than anyone else. Did you see his shit at the Grammy's this year? He said Beck should give his award to Beyonce, because she is more artistic.. Ignoring the fact that Beck can play almost any instrument, and has a better voice. He blatantly uses autotune as well. Kanye does not deserve to be famous at all, he is a scumbag racist moron, who is somewhat talented.
^ You did NOT just say that Beck has a better voice than Beyoncé, and insinuate that someone's personality/acts should affect their career. I know it was insensitive of Kanye, but calm down
Maria H I just did all of those things. Beyonce has an excellent voice, but the fact of the matter is, Beck is more musically talented. And yes, Kanye West should not be an artist. There are plenty of people more talented than he is, who aren't racist scumbags who deserve the fame and fortune. People who aren't good people should not be successful in life. That's how it should work.
SteelersRule1011 well its not the world is gonna stay the same whether you like it or not and I hope it doesnt change because than awful people who hide behind computer screens trashing celebs and if someone says something dont say why dang you need to learn some respect
SteelersRule1011 Kanye West shouldn't be a musician? He redefined the rap genre (watch any rap critic or credible rapper's interview and hear what they have to say about him) multiple times within the span of his own career. Not only that he's made the careers of many artists: he reinvigorated jay-z's career with "izzo" and the watch the throne album, he gave john legend a career (signed under ye), he reinvigorated common's career, he signed and produced for big sean, kid cudi, etc. I can't even list how many things this guy has done and people still knock him because they don't know shit. You can't possibly imagine how hard it is to be a crossover star, making a genre of music that the mainstream doesn't appreciate but still making it big. Although it has yet to be seen if he will reach the heights of these artists, his career is comparable to those of michael jackson, louis armstrong, hank williams, etc. making an otherwise subculture genre into a fullblown mainstream one. The people who hate him are unfamiliar with his work, work ethic and frame of mind. You call him racist, but you don't provide anything to back it up. He's interrupted/called out black artists at awards shows WAY before he did it to Beck and even Taylor Swift, but no one cares, because they were black. I don't understand why people are offended by the incident even when BECK HIMSELF said that he thought Beyonce she should've gotten the award (and no he is not being modest). Also, Kanye never said Beyonce was more artistic than beck. He said beck should "respect artistry" which could mean a many deal of things. What I think he meant is that Beyonce's album was better than Beck's and that doesn't mean SHE is a better musician than beck, just that the collaboration effort of all of the producer's (who are artists in their own right) and her made a better product. I get the fact that Beck plays a lot of instruments, but is it that meaningful to be able to play all those instruments when you're only playing one at a time? It's only useful for the recording process but he can't perform them all at a time. And who do you think writes Kanye West's melodic arrangements, and who does the drums? He composes most of his music and although he doesn't actually play all the instruments in his music, he writes the partition so it is artistic in its own right. Finally, the fact that you can say that Beyonce's voice who has a much larger pitch range and dynamic range is inferior to beck's shows how biased you are, which is okay. However, you should have phrased it as "I prefer beck's voice", because objectively you cannot say that Beck's voice is better than Beyonce's. Sorry this was a very long winded response, but you addressed a lot of points and I didn't want to leave any behind. Hopefully, you read this.
I never realised before but this is about his mother and north. if you read it from his mother point of view its really sweet As I lay me down to sleep I hear her speak to me Hello 'Mari, how ya doin'? I think the storm ran out of rain, the clouds are movin' I know you're happy, cause I can see it So tell the voice inside ya' head to believe it (then this part is talking about how god sent him 2 angels, kim and north) I talked to God about you, he said he sent you an angel And look at all that he gave you You asked for one and you got two You know I never left you Cause every road that leads to heaven's right inside you So I can say (and apparently only one was what Kanye's mom would call him because I believe that's kinna what his name means) Hello my only one Just like the morning sun You keep on rising till the sky knows your name Hello my only one Remember who you are No you’re not perfect but you’re not your mistakes (and then the rest of the song is the same her being encouraging to Kanye and probably what she would say to him to keep being great. and the at the end she asks him to tell north about her "nori" = north Hey, hey, hey, hey Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about I just want you to do me a favor Tell Nori about me damn Kanye actually made me cry :(
Jus had a daughter 3 days ago and this is the 1st song I played when i put her to sleep the 1st time …. Kanye is an amazing human jus very misunderstood he is a genius
Aniyah Easterling if he's so famous why isn't he on the bill board's hot 100 right now? I bet you can't name his last album without Google (don't lie to yourself)... Kanye should get a tax write off for the charity work!
He is famous, dumbass. He was in the best-selling and highly talented band The Beatles and now has a solo career. He still creates amazing music. If anything, Paul is the one giving this guy more attention.
+Dealth I really like it, but I would've loved it if it wasn't so autotuned. I see the artistic use for it in this situation with the overall sound, but toning it down a bit would've been nice. But otherwise I really do like it.
+Shane Benjamson The point of the song is not to show that he's an amazing singer. It's to pass the emotion and let you enjoy the song. The fact that its autotuned and he breaks it in the middle, like he doesnt give a fuck about guys like you
Does the auto tune really matter? Do you guys not see the message in the song? All you be so fucked up. It is not about who is saving whos career, its about the message in the song. At the end of the day that's what all songs are. Messages. Allegory.
I could care less about the message of a song. It only matters if it sounds pleasant to listen too. Sure songs have messages but so do books and poems. Read a book or a blog if you care about the message.
Wu Tang Bullshit music has never been about the message in America. For god's sake listen to the Beatles or the Rolling Stones. Get off your shitty high horse. Classical music can be interpretive as well. This is not spoken word but a song. Sure some songs are written for a good message but most people don't care. I hope you pay attention to the message of My Sharona so that you can go around picking up underage chicks. I listen to music and form my own interpretations of it instead of trying to sympathize with a guy I have never met who could care less about your situation. Just because a song has a good message does not mean it isn't a shit song. If you care about the message of songs then go listen to music played on christian channels.
Wu Tang You're such an entitled little shithead. Dumbed down? Music was never meant to be about a grand message. Earliest form of music were for entertainment, which is EXACTLY what they are for now. Sure, some artists decide to implement a message in their song, but because some do it just for entertainment's sake doesn't mean it's "dumbed down" you knobhead.
My dad died in 2014 from a battle with cancer and this song always makes me think of him. It makes me wonder if he would be proud of where I am and who I am now. I’ve been going through some tough times with trying to find myself and my direction. This song makes me feel like my dad is telling me that one day I’ll be the man I want to be. I cry every time I hear this song. Miss you dad. Thanks Ye.
i hate how dehumanized the media makes him. i see all these people calling him a douchebag or an asshole for speaking his mind, running to Kim's aide after she was mugged, or cancelling his tour due to health conditions. he's a human being, give him a break, jesus christ.
Colton Gatrell just listen to the song bro, you are not perfect but you are not your mistakes, Kanye is a GOAT, maybe he gets kinda crazy but we all do, and its just cause he is famous that we realize more about his crazy stuff, Kanye is a GOAT, he love his work, his projects, his family and believes in himself, and thats all u can ask for a human being
Colton Gatrell sorry in not american so idk how is Donald trump treating ur people, i wont get into that discussion, I have heard things but i have to feel on my own skin to talk about it, the only thing I can say its that i don’t think that compare an artist to a government leader is the most accurate thing
+Colton Gatrell Kanye West is one of the greatest artist to be out there right now, wheter you like it or not. He has shaped the way music is to this day and is still pushing himself further. He has influenced so many artists and will definetly continue to. Saying you don't like his music is fine, but you can't deny he's an amazing artist.
Brought my son home from the hospital, played this song and cried harder than I ever have. Never understood tears of joy until that moment. Thank you Ye.
The song is not about North!!! The song is actually about Kanye's mother who died on November 10, 2007. When he repeatedly says "Tell Nori about me," he's referring to tell North about her grandmother. In the song, he's explaining the conversation he had with his mother and god. The song is called the "Only One" because Kanye's mother gave him that name. Biblically, Kanye means the "Only One." And sing he has "Only One" child, its dedicated to North so she knows about her grandmother. Kanye West is a lyrical genius! He had to pave his way into this business. Starting out as a college dropout who left art school to study music at Chicago University (where his mom worked). Everybody only knew Kanye at the time as a great producer. No one ever took him serious as a rapper until after his car crash (which he nearly died from) and made a video even with his mouth wired shut. Kanye West is/will be apart of the all time greats. He actually worked to get where he is now unlike most of these artist now a days just get contracts off of one hit records. I got mad respect for Kanye. To understand Kanye West you have to look at his documentaries to understand what he's gone through. So don't disrespect unless you know the truth.
Glad to see Kanye putting so much faith in a newcomer like this Paul guy. I'm always a fan of pushing undiscovered talent.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha I love your videos
Are you trolling?
jamayrian no he's def serious
Paul has been in the business since 1957. You GOT to be trolling!

The way "tell Nory' about me" hits soooo hard now that Donda has reached the entire world. When i hear that line it immediately puts the image of north dancing infront of Ye's childhood home in my mind. Art that reflect life like this is so much deeper and valuable than a hit.

Say what you want about Kanye's last few albums, he's still the greatest artist of the 2000's period. Nobody has made more influential music or inspired a generation like he has.
I think all great artists have some misses. If you swing big and take risks it won’t always pay off. And it hasn’t always payed off for Kanye. But the fact that he’s willing to make the moves he does is precisely why he’s a great artist. And the fact that he’s been able to do it and exist in the mainstream is even more significant. Lou Reed and Bowie weren’t the top hitmakers of their time. His only equivalent is like The Beatles probably.
kanye's last few albums have been amazing wdym? the only one that was kinda lackluster maybe was jesus is king
Idk y it’s so normal to hate in god or any religion
**one of the greatest artists of all time
Idk. at first JIK didn't impress me. Played it through a couple more times, listened to it properly. Now one of my preferred Kanye albums. Not much of his I don't like though, tbh.
Kanye's songs just hit you in the heart. Even though he's wrong about a lot of things, I believe his pure intentions.
I usually don’t listen to rap at all but Kanye drew my interest with his behavior over the years and I’ve been very shocked at how beautiful his music is.
What is he wrong about?
@Prodigal Son I'm guessing that sarcasm But all I heard him say about Hitler was that he loves him which as a Christian you are called to love even your enemies.
Nice spin bro

This song makes me cry without fail, even just thinking the lyrics in my head.
My grandma raised me from the time I was 2 weeks old until she passed when I was 12. Things got incredibly tough for me after her passing - sexual trauma, constant new homes, mental health issues. Things that could have let break me, but I always had my omi in my heart.
When I hear this song, it feels like she is speaking to me. I imagine her at her healthiest, smiling, and making wonderful memories with me. Thank you for being there for me and loving me unconditionally Omi.
Thank you Kanye for your music getting me through the thoughest parts of my life
Hope you're doing okay now. You're wonderful
Sending you so much love beautiful ❤
Rest in peace my father 🥺💔💔
Keep your head up ❤
when this song first came out, I thought it was lovely, but didn't necessarily relate to it. now, my mother is fighting for her life in an ICU... and its like a light switched on with my understanding of this song. it went from lovely to heart breakingly beautiful.
i hope your mom gets better :)
Tina Gambino thank you so much, sweetie!
Stay strong :)
I'm sorry to hear. I do hope she gets better. I'll pray for her.
You guys are so sweet. Unfortunately, Mom passed 1-7-16. I just got home from her funeral. This song now means so much to me.

I will never forget when I went to a festival and Kanye was the only reason why I went. It was dark by the time he came on and I remember it was a rough patch in my life and listening to him perform Only One and it was slightly sprinkling over us and I looked up and just felt an emotion I will never be able to forget. I love Kanye’s music so much. Donda deserves all the love.
this comment is so beautiful man, thank u for sharing that. it’s almost like i understand perfectly the emotion u were describing
That is beautiful
Copping A celine hat can replicate that feeling
If DONDA is anywhere near as heartfelt as this song it could end up being one of his best albums. This is my all time favorite Ye song, makes me tear up every time. Just thinking of the story behind it makes you really appreciate your mom/parents if you still have them around.

The best part of growing up is finally realizing and understanding the meaning of songs. This song randomly came on in the grief cave about 6 months after my mother passed and I cried for hours. I love and hate this song because it makes me miss her so much but also puts in perspective how great my life has become and to keep going forward. I hear her voice in this song and it is a reminder to keep your head up.
I know your pain, I listen to this song when I’m missing my mom I lost a year ago. I hope our moms are watching over us.
Best Kanye song by a mile. No contest. This song explains Kanye’s entire psyche and materialises the love for his children and god like no other. You can feel the pain he felt when he lost his mum, the grandma to his children. Forever chills
One of his best but I prefer runaway all falls down and familly buisness
Come to life is better
man im crying so hard right now... lost my mama this year in february and her first grand baby was in my ladies stomach smh. i named her after you mama and imma tell her everything about you. she looks just like you and smiles from ear to ear everytime i talk about u. the holidays will be rough on me with you not being here. if it wasnt for my daughter i honestly dont know how i could go on without u ma

for those who don't really understand the song, its supposed to be Kayne's mother looking down on him and singing to him from heaven. (nori is north's nickname and thats why she is asking Kayne to tell North about her!) plz thumbs this up as it may help someone lol
the comment btw
+Essy omokaro His middle name is Omari I think he said Hello Mari not Nori but great explanation (:
+IndigoGoddess517 He said, "hello mari", mari being kanye and "tell nori about me", nori being north. Essy's translation is correct.
It's bad that this is still a good song even if I didn't get that, the people are just haters
close lulliby for north in the prospective of his mom
I can really relate to Kanye West. He worked hard for a long time before being recognized in the game, he truly deserves the success that he has had.

I feel this is the truest Kanye song. It's amazing how much his tone changes from song to song. Kinda makes you wonder whats going on with him
Everything about Kanye West makes me wonder what's going on with him.
+Kevin Palombi haha so true
it's called autotune.
to me all his songs sound pretty much the same
Kanye could make a song farting the national anthem, puking at the same time and his fans would love it, calling him a genius, ? are they spell bond? Zombies? Or is it Just plan ole love for Mr. West? Anyway keep ya head up.
How the fuck do you dislike this?
He has no talent? He's using autotune..?
+Raynald Tremblay Yeah, it's not the best but the ones dislike it because if the auto tune, but not because of the storytelling of it. It's a good song if you know what he's talking about
+Raynald Tremblay he's using autotune in two ways, to make his voice into more of an instrument and as an effect to change his voice, as the song is about his mother talking to him and his daughter from heaven.
yeah i know what the song is about thats what im saying. i dont care if its autotuned its the meaning of the song that i like people hate it because of the autotune not the song
How the fuck do you like it
Miss Miss westie 🗣️🗣️🗣️
WOW, Paul McCartney is a lot shorter than I thought. Kanye West towers over him in this video!! Paul has a great tan though...

How many people cry when they listen to this?
😞
This and hey mama.
I cry everytime
me rn
I don’t understand I can’t stop crying and I never cry HELP!
Everyone that understands it
This is a Beatles heavy vibe song. It made me tear up a little bit, Paul said he was himself and he went back to when he was with John in that session. I just saw the get back documentary and Pauls vibe playing let it be, very similar to this one.
Kanye is the GOAT it’s just incomparable to everyone
I don't even think he uses the auto tune to sound better I think he just does it cause he likes the sound
Quite a few artists do, hate that it can often be looked down upon. Don't think it's that different from using a distortion pedal while playing guitar.
He says he isn't a great singer. Autotune achieves a great sound with his work.
+James Marlon Totally agree! Exactly what I think!
I've heard he uses it because it makes him sound more unique from other artists
it's like t-pain, dude uses auto tune to sound different, but the dude can fucking sing (look up him singing the national anthem at a baseball game)
This song always brings tears to my eyes
Beautiful song.
Same here ;(

so beautiful to rewatch this after Talking/Once Again
real
Even in 2023 one of the greatest songs to ever exist

Yes?
You guys all understand what this song is about right? I'm not looking for a fight here at all. But I have to say that I hope that all of your families are in good health and with you. Because how dare anyone spit venom at an artist creating something for his mother that passed away. Be human for a minute. This dude talks crazy sometimes, we all know that, but talk about saying crazy things. There are people that came out of their way to trash him here. That's absolutely sad.
so true
word up
i agree. I might not be a huge fan of some of Kanye's songs but i like the simplicity and the message of this song.
Sadly haters are still going to hate.
But hey, at least North has one good thing she could say, "My dad played with a Beatle!" That's something worth being noted.
***** How about "my dad released 5 critically acclaimed albums in a row that were featured in Rolling Stones, revived Jay-z's career, paved the way for lots of hip hop artists, has been awarded with 21 grammys out of 57, is considered the greatest hip-hop artist of our generation AND worked with Paul Mccartney."
*"Tell Nori about me"* this makes me really emotional, every grandma and grandpa should have the right to see her/his grandchildren grow up...
daddy?
This song is why Kanye will never be replaced
When this song first came out I didn’t think much of it but a couple years ago I lost my dad, my best friend in the whole world and every since then I can’t hear this song without bawling like a baby. It’s not my favorite Ye song but it’s the one that means the most to me. In a few minutes Ye was able to convey feelings that I can’t even begin to describe even years after losing my dad. All I can say is I’m forever grateful for this song because I’m still healing everyday and it’s not always easy to release these feelings on my own.
Hope you feel better soon ❤
Rip to your dad
North: Papa, what was grandma like?
Kanye: *smiles*

So many people complain about how much of a "rude, disrespectful, and outrageous" person Kanye West is, but at the end of the day, the man is completely talented with what he does. He makes true art, and although he may be very opinionated, aren't we all? I give him so much respect for his hustle, and for being in his daughter's life. I hope one day I can inspire the world with my music the way Kanye continues to do each day. Feel free to give my songs a listen, if you like what you hear, that's all that really matters to me.
Dylan Maharaj VERY well said, I totally agree
Kanyeezy Beezy Thank you bro, glad we're on the same page!
Dylan Maharaj No problem, btw man I checked out your music and you're pretty good, keep up the hustle
Kanyeezy Beezy Wow, thank you so much for giving my music a chance homie, I really appreciate it! I'll definitely keep it up!
Dylan Maharaj People hate. It's homo sapiens sapiens ugly nature and might have been our saving grace back in the day. It serves no purpose anymore. At the end of the day Kanye is just another flawed human. Until we have ubiquitous transhuman tech the any hate is unwarranted and useless.
I am pretty sure this guy knows what he is doing even with the autism levels of eccentricity.
In this song, I hear your happiness and sadness. I HOPE Kim and you Ye, remember how much you loved one another, and the greatest gift of all you two made together ❤️

Tajujuan Hill people hate kanye for a few reasons, because he bashed on the sweety little america's princess Taylor Swift, and because of his straight-forward personality, in other words because he says what he thinks, and since our society is so...but soooooooooooooooooo dumb, we will keep hating on kanye just because others do, we dont need a special reason, if u ask a kanye west hater why he hates he will say "because his music sucks and he's an asshole" you can ask them to explain those words, and they wont be able to.....i personally like kanye west works, as a matter of fact, he's my favorite rapper, and maybe my favorite singer. people need to start listening to the lyrics of his songs instead of spreading this automatic-hate.
It is literally a trend to hate kanye west because the man is a freethinker. Sure he is eccentric but it is because he doesn't think like the average person, and the average person just does not understand Kanye west. People tend to dislike things they can't comprehend. Kanye West is too complex for the media, and the masses.
Its not about his daughter. Did you even listen to the song? Its from his mothers perspective about him when he was a little boy.
Andrew Bedingfield and relating to kanye with his own daughter.....

"he sent you angel" reminds me of the angel necklace that Kanye got in his documentary, and Mama Donda was so happy about his chain. Makes me tear up a bit thinking about it.
man this is how you shoot a music video imo. perfect
Kanye is the only musician whose music I won't pirate
olli449 Why? He deserves the money less than anyone else. Did you see his shit at the Grammy's this year? He said Beck should give his award to Beyonce, because she is more artistic.. Ignoring the fact that Beck can play almost any instrument, and has a better voice. He blatantly uses autotune as well. Kanye does not deserve to be famous at all, he is a scumbag racist moron, who is somewhat talented.
^ You did NOT just say that Beck has a better voice than Beyoncé, and insinuate that someone's personality/acts should affect their career. I know it was insensitive of Kanye, but calm down
Maria H I just did all of those things. Beyonce has an excellent voice, but the fact of the matter is, Beck is more musically talented. And yes, Kanye West should not be an artist. There are plenty of people more talented than he is, who aren't racist scumbags who deserve the fame and fortune. People who aren't good people should not be successful in life. That's how it should work.
SteelersRule1011 well its not the world is gonna stay the same whether you like it or not and I hope it doesnt change because than awful people who hide behind computer screens trashing celebs and if someone says something dont say why dang you need to learn some respect
SteelersRule1011 Kanye West shouldn't be a musician? He redefined the rap genre (watch any rap critic or credible rapper's interview and hear what they have to say about him) multiple times within the span of his own career. Not only that he's made the careers of many artists: he reinvigorated jay-z's career with "izzo" and the watch the throne album, he gave john legend a career (signed under ye), he reinvigorated common's career, he signed and produced for big sean, kid cudi, etc. I can't even list how many things this guy has done and people still knock him because they don't know shit. You can't possibly imagine how hard it is to be a crossover star, making a genre of music that the mainstream doesn't appreciate but still making it big. Although it has yet to be seen if he will reach the heights of these artists, his career is comparable to those of michael jackson, louis armstrong, hank williams, etc. making an otherwise subculture genre into a fullblown mainstream one.
The people who hate him are unfamiliar with his work, work ethic and frame of mind. You call him racist, but you don't provide anything to back it up. He's interrupted/called out black artists at awards shows WAY before he did it to Beck and even Taylor Swift, but no one cares, because they were black. I don't understand why people are offended by the incident even when BECK HIMSELF said that he thought Beyonce she should've gotten the award (and no he is not being modest).
Also, Kanye never said Beyonce was more artistic than beck. He said beck should "respect artistry" which could mean a many deal of things. What I think he meant is that Beyonce's album was better than Beck's and that doesn't mean SHE is a better musician than beck, just that the collaboration effort of all of the producer's (who are artists in their own right) and her made a better product. I get the fact that Beck plays a lot of instruments, but is it that meaningful to be able to play all those instruments when you're only playing one at a time? It's only useful for the recording process but he can't perform them all at a time. And who do you think writes Kanye West's melodic arrangements, and who does the drums? He composes most of his music and although he doesn't actually play all the instruments in his music, he writes the partition so it is artistic in its own right.
Finally, the fact that you can say that Beyonce's voice who has a much larger pitch range and dynamic range is inferior to beck's shows how biased you are, which is okay. However, you should have phrased it as "I prefer beck's voice", because objectively you cannot say that Beck's voice is better than Beyonce's.
Sorry this was a very long winded response, but you addressed a lot of points and I didn't want to leave any behind. Hopefully, you read this.
I never realised before but this is about his mother and north. if you read it from his mother point of view its really sweet
As I lay me down to sleep
I hear her speak to me
Hello 'Mari, how ya doin'?
I think the storm ran out of rain, the clouds are movin'
I know you're happy, cause I can see it
So tell the voice inside ya' head to believe it
(then this part is talking about how god sent him 2 angels, kim and north)
I talked to God about you, he said he sent you an angel
And look at all that he gave you
You asked for one and you got two
You know I never left you
Cause every road that leads to heaven's right inside you
So I can say
(and apparently only one was what Kanye's mom would call him because I believe that's kinna what his name means)
Hello my only one
Just like the morning sun
You keep on rising till the sky knows your name
Hello my only one
Remember who you are
No you’re not perfect but you’re not your mistakes
(and then the rest of the song is the same her being encouraging to Kanye and probably what she would say to him to keep being great. and the at the end she asks him to tell north about her "nori" = north
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Tell Nori about me, tell Nori about
I just want you to do me a favor
Tell Nori about me

Greatest song of all time
Does the auto tune really matter? Do you guys not see the message in the song? All you be so fucked up. It is not about who is saving whos career, its about the message in the song. At the end of the day that's what all songs are. Messages. Allegory.
I could care less about the message of a song. It only matters if it sounds pleasant to listen too. Sure songs have messages but so do books and poems. Read a book or a blog if you care about the message.
Fureth32 This attitude is exactly why music is dumbed today. Congratulations on being part of the problem.
Wu Tang
Bullshit music has never been about the message in America. For god's sake listen to the Beatles or the Rolling Stones. Get off your shitty high horse. Classical music can be interpretive as well. This is not spoken word but a song. Sure some songs are written for a good message but most people don't care. I hope you pay attention to the message of My Sharona so that you can go around picking up underage chicks. I listen to music and form my own interpretations of it instead of trying to sympathize with a guy I have never met who could care less about your situation. Just because a song has a good message does not mean it isn't a shit song. If you care about the message of songs then go listen to music played on christian channels.
He has plenty of songs where the message is just ignorant but it sounds great. So it's not always just about the message.
Wu Tang You're such an entitled little shithead. Dumbed down? Music was never meant to be about a grand message. Earliest form of music were for entertainment, which is EXACTLY what they are for now. Sure, some artists decide to implement a message in their song, but because some do it just for entertainment's sake doesn't mean it's "dumbed down" you knobhead.
I love you man I bought all your albums illegally

I've been waking the spirits of millions more to come
A million illegally downloaded my truth over the drums
-Yeezus
😂😂😂😂😂
His albums stink
My dad died in 2014 from a battle with cancer and this song always makes me think of him. It makes me wonder if he would be proud of where I am and who I am now.
I’ve been going through some tough times with trying to find myself and my direction. This song makes me feel like my dad is telling me that one day I’ll be the man I want to be. I cry every time I hear this song. Miss you dad.
Thanks Ye.
😣😩
Sorry for your loss. God bless you man.
Omg she's soooo cute 😭
i hate how dehumanized the media makes him. i see all these people calling him a douchebag or an asshole for speaking his mind, running to Kim's aide after she was mugged, or cancelling his tour due to health conditions. he's a human being, give him a break, jesus christ.
Sean Trolrus What does Jesus Christ have to do with it, brother?

Colton Gatrell just listen to the song bro, you are not perfect but you are not your mistakes, Kanye is a GOAT, maybe he gets kinda crazy but we all do, and its just cause he is famous that we realize more about his crazy stuff, Kanye is a GOAT, he love his work, his projects, his family and believes in himself, and thats all u can ask for a human being
Colton Gatrell sorry in not american so idk how is Donald trump treating ur people, i wont get into that discussion, I have heard things but i have to feel on my own skin to talk about it, the only thing I can say its that i don’t think that compare an artist to a government leader is the most accurate thing
+Colton Gatrell Kanye West is one of the greatest artist to be out there right now, wheter you like it or not. He has shaped the way music is to this day and is still pushing himself further. He has influenced so many artists and will definetly continue to. Saying you don't like his music is fine, but you can't deny he's an amazing artist.
Brought my son home from the hospital, played this song and cried harder than I ever have. Never understood tears of joy until that moment. Thank you Ye.
He made me cry again and I'm not ashamed. I've Lost Granny, Unc and my main within 3 months this year. Thanks Ye.
I am sorry for your lost ones.
1:55 from the heart .. 😔😔😔
love you Kanye stay real 🧡🧡❤❤
The song is not about North!!! The song is actually about Kanye's mother who died on November 10, 2007. When he repeatedly says "Tell Nori about me," he's referring to tell North about her grandmother. In the song, he's explaining the conversation he had with his mother and god. The song is called the "Only One" because Kanye's mother gave him that name. Biblically, Kanye means the "Only One." And sing he has "Only One" child, its dedicated to North so she knows about her grandmother.
Kanye West is a lyrical genius! He had to pave his way into this business. Starting out as a college dropout who left art school to study music at Chicago University (where his mom worked). Everybody only knew Kanye at the time as a great producer. No one ever took him serious as a rapper until after his car crash (which he nearly died from) and made a video even with his mouth wired shut.
Kanye West is/will be apart of the all time greats. He actually worked to get where he is now unlike most of these artist now a days just get contracts off of one hit records. I got mad respect for Kanye. To understand Kanye West you have to look at his documentaries to understand what he's gone through. So don't disrespect unless you know the truth.
DMariea Williams ....is this kanye west on an alt youtube account?
TheRoshan89 its really what the message is, if you were a fan you would know
DMariea Williams Actually the name Kanye means, "let's give", not Only One. Look it up.
That's really sweet of him, he's loyal lucky Kim, the songs great either way💜💕✨✨💋
DMariea Williams I now understand Dan's love for Kanye a little more
