They use to date, but I think it's been a while since they broke up. Too bad, I think this video proves that Animal's as Leaders style of music could actually use some vocals to get an even better result, while to be honest Kelela's solo career is not as musically interesting as it could have been.
10 to 12 years now listening to this and i really dont know why it never came out as a single or something, i really miss these times when ppl actually cared about their work and reputation as artists, always pushing further
I've been watching this for years, through multiple accounts and never once posted a comment. Just wanted to say how much this inspired me at a time where i was completely unmotivated with everything. Like, hearing this just gave me a lot of hope and something to look forward to, which was talented and original music. And, started a really awesome journey into expanding my tastes and showing me that there's more out there in the world. I went from being an angry kid that only listened to metal cause i thought it was the only "heavy" type of music. To now, where i know "heavy" is all about emotion and context. So, thank you Tosin and Kelela. You've made my life much more awesome and gave me hope at a rough time.
Same.. been watching this for so many years, at different points of my life going from ups and downs. I absolutely love the album version but this version has another charm to it. Probably my favourite song off their discography of 3 full length albums now.
For everyone that doesn't know: Kelela is now an established R&B artist, pushing the boundaries of that genre, such as FKA Twigs but in her own style. You should check it out. After I found her solo music I recognized the name and the voice from this video. Do yourself a favor and listen to her music, it is amazing.
She also sings the vocals on the TRAM album, with another singer that once sang in the kids choir of Aeroplane by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, crazy story haha
too many tosin fans are used to hearing this song from the album and can't open their minds to different possibilities. she did the song justice and made digestible vocal patterns out of what is normally a complex and technical song. It was excellent.
No it simply doesn't fit. The song is clearly meant to be instrumental. This is the equivalent of two people singing two different songs at once. It's just clashing.
Taco Crisma My issue isn't her voice, because it's amazing. My issue isn't even with her vocal phrasing. My issue is with the content of the lyrics. They seemed to ramble and lacked cohesion to a line of thought. What started off aounding like what would happen if King Crimson backed up Billie Holiday quickly decended into an exapmle ofwhat happens when musicians don't listen to each other and improvisation becomes calamity by forcing ideas that don't belong within the context of the song. I just think that they should've come up with a completely new song as opposed to adding a vocal part to an already established song.
for God sake, I'm from Brazil, do u guys, when listen to Baden Powell, Vinicius de Moraes, Tom Jobim, or any other of our musician think in the literally content of the song? Well, me neither [although I understand English] Hehehe, Im a AAL fan n I really like this version, the AAL could have a all acoustic album with voices n stuff as well, it's good, it's something different Im not listen to too many pieces with vocals
+Nicolas Arango or even quintuplets and septuplets going to a 4/4 beat you can divide time which equals beats by any prime number and while it's fucking difficult to in time divide 3 or 4 or 5 or 7 or 11 or 13 or 17 or 23 by 3 or 4 or 5 or 7 or 11 etc, it can be done, and it sounds fucking awesome how you can imply that the tempo has changed when really you're only dividing differently instead of whole easily counted repetitions
+Travis Vick i have yet to establish this in my own music, but chances are that tosin does use real polyrhythms, not only odd time, because there is a difference between odd time and polyrhythms lol
10 years later, i still come back to listen to this. I wish they made more music together; i love this collab so damn much. So beautiful, rich and soulful 🖤
So it took me a long, long time to get into the vocals. But now every time I hear this song I can't unhear Kelela's voice on this. If she and Tosin did an album together where she's IN on the writing process and lays down lyrics (none of this T.R.A.M. backing vocal stuff) I'd be all kinds of happy. Also, can we talk about how she just referenced Strange Fruit in a line about GMO? That's insane. And kind of genius.
This is beyond beautiful and actually difficult to some. The beat alone, but to sing to it is challenging. You have to listen very carefully to the chords. This is just beautifully complex and wonderful.
Okay if Animals As Leaders ever needs a vocalist, hire this singer immediately. She's got one hell of a voice! Hell, if you're not gonna have her sing in your band, I want that voice in mine. :P Genuine respect for her vocal talents!
was skeptical at first. i wasn't disappointed though, she has an awesome voice, i would buy this for sure. haha animals as leaders acoustic sessions feat. kelela????? PLS TOSIN
... this guitarist is above the median level ... because even though he was a virtuoso, he does different things with creativity ... unlike most of the virtuosos of today, who are content to play the same way, the same ideas and timbres..Tosin Abasi is different !!!
Man, I know AAL is an instrumental project, but hearing this I can't help but imagine how incredible the resulting music would sound if Kelela joined as singer - it's such a perfect fit with Tosin's songwriting and guitar style. At any rate, I'd love to hear another collaboration at some stage
I agree with Owen, a similar but separate project would be best, as Animals As Leaders is a dedicated instrumental band (and much more metal than what Tosin is playing here). That said, it would be outstanding.
ABASI IS A MASTER OF HIS ART TRULLY ONE THE BEST 7/8 STRING PLAYERS OF OUR TIME I WOULD NEVER EXPECT ANY LESS OF A COLLABORATION THAN THIS I CANT WAIT TO SEE HIS LATER WORK.
Daammn Kelelas got soul! I actually really enjoyed it, being a strict instrumentalist. It reminds me of the jazzy rhythms and indie beats Flying Lotus creates. I have a deep respect for jazz being incorporated into the recent progressive movement. Tosin, your sound is just eternally inspiring to me and I feel that nobody has accomplished the merging of jazz and progressive with such finesse as you have. Kelela seems to bring to life some of the underlying elements of jazz in Behaving Badly. She has great musical potential! A request if I may: I think you and Misha could really produce volumes of seriously prodigious music if you collaborated with Flying Lotus. He's a genius and I feel like he would complete the trifecta of progressive prowess. Like 1 genius + 2 geniuses = 1 virtuoso collaboration man! Think of the possibilities!!! Fucking love you guys. Next tour you should hit up Arkansas :D Goarge's Majestic Lounge in Fayetteville would be a show to remember!
I've been wondering when I'd bump into a fellow FlyLo fan on an AAL vid, haha. You're right a colab between them would be amazing. I feel like both've brought much needed style and class to their respective genres.
Man, you just all resume what i was thinking. I used to get high on this, man in the midnight, one of the best experience in my entire life. Try this at home, it causes trippy trips
I was nervous about what the vocals would be. The thing I love the most about AAS is that it's instrumental, but the moment she started I got goosebumps all over. Great job!
I think this is a good version of that song. I mean, you can see clearly this song wasn't meant to have a vocal line on top of it in first place, but she pretty much catched the vibe and wrote something that fits good, not GREAT, but good. Guys, different is not always bad, it's not like AAL will forbid you to hear the original song from now on...
Hi Tosin Abasi, you play very well. One of the cool things I love about extended Range Guitars is that they're great for Gospel Music, the lower strings make make it easier to transpose because alot of songs will be transposed to fit the ranges of certain singers/musicians.
This gave me the best spinechills ive had in a long time, the lyrics almost made me overflow with tears of joy, and knowing that tosin is working with a woman now is beautiful as well, i would love to experience more of this tonal duality.
no man, calm down! i just think it would be interesting for them to have a vocalist just for some songs. and why you have to be so fucking agressive ? just because you are on the internet?
Guilherme Luiz Bettini You're right, it would be awesome. I would love to see a side-project of AAL with a singer like Spencer Sotelo, it would fucking rule!
Idk, I felt the vocals were off putting up until the section at 0:56-1:28 and 2:04-3:35. Kelela is a damn good singer but it's two melodies clashing here
Kenneth Therriault Agreed. Her vibe and melody doesn't really match the tone of the song. She's singing a pretty sad song, and Behaving Badly has a more upbeat melody
One of my favorite Animals As Leaders songs and very talented individuals but i have to say i prefer the song being as an instrumental i didn't feel like it all flowed to well together in my opinion.
Holy snapping shit you gotta love Kelela's voice! And Tosin's playing obviously. You guys should do a proper collab one day! Seen you jamming to her music as well, such a smooth combo.
Yomamas Nekst She's so lucky o.o She's probably lucky too, I don't really know anything about her. But she's probably also really cool XP But still, I'm jealous...
Hive Atlas I don't know much about Tosin but his fans seem real passionate about him he must be good. Kelela's fucking gorgeous mate, I have her saved as my desktop wallpaper haha
Wow. Nice work. Such a nice voice. Want a to hear a new song with her on it. Challenging to fit a voice onto an already instrumental tune, but I dig it.
THIS IS AMAZING. AMAZING. THANK YOU GOD, FOR LETTING ME FIND THIS. This is a combination of my favorite genres, soul and technical guitar oriented progressive music.... This is fucking ACE.
White metalheads can't fathom that a black woman with soul can't sing over Tosin's (idk if yall knew this but a BLACK MAN)guitar playing lol. She bodied this
She's not really adding to his playing. Like, the vocals and guitar do not acknowledge one another. It's like two sounds being layered unintentionally. that maybe the desired effect but i didn't get that impression. Gotta love my man tosin though.
Jason Guerrero I agree with Jason 100% ... Im kind of annoyed this version exists, i would love it if there was no vocals and it was just Tosin sitting down facing the camera playing it solo, hes such a bad ass!
I have to say I agree with you as well, as good as her vocals are, even if you didn't know it was the case you'd be able to tell that they were added after everything else had been written - they don't complement each other enough. Having said that, I do think this version is very pleasant to listen to, mostly because it's just something a bit different and she's still a good singer. Also Tosin's playing is, as usual, flawless.
Yes it does. He's doing lots of Arpeggios and she is singing melodies along with it. I should know because I'm a musician, music major and engineer. But that's neither hear nor there. (seeing that you think that's what validates an opinion). I do have a degree in Music Education
Good song bad vocals is what you mean. What Tosins playing is an animals as leaders. This girls just singing over his song and it's not working. Animals as leaders is an instrumental band for a reason.
Over ten years later, I'm still waiting for a full album from Tosin and Kelela.
They use to date, but I think it's been a while since they broke up.
Too bad, I think this video proves that Animal's as Leaders style of music could actually use some vocals to get an even better result, while to be honest Kelela's solo career is not as musically interesting as it could have been.
Check out TRAM its got both Tosin and Kelela plus Eric Moore from suicidal tendencies and a flutist from the mars volta (forgot his name lol)
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS
@@ricardorien we are still waiting lol
10 to 12 years now listening to this and i really dont know why it never came out as a single or something, i really miss these times when ppl actually cared about their work and reputation as artists, always pushing further
tosin just looks like he's warming up xD
Travis Vick With that hat I think he's chillin

Thos video was actually my introduction to this song
for God sake, I'm from Brazil, do u guys, when listen to Baden Powell, Vinicius de Moraes, Tom Jobim, or any other of our musician think in the literally content of the song?
Well, me neither [although I understand English]
Hehehe, Im a AAL fan n I really like this version, the AAL could have a all acoustic album with voices n stuff as well, it's good, it's something different
Im not listen to too many pieces with vocals
Tosin, let me introduce you to a wonderful world full of possibilities and new ideas, it's called "4/4"
+Nicolas Arango I guess he is not good enough with 4/4 cause he never played it. *g*
Savage 😂
+Nicolas Arango or even quintuplets and septuplets going to a 4/4 beat you can divide time which equals beats by any prime number and while it's fucking difficult to in time divide 3 or 4 or 5 or 7 or 11 or 13 or 17 or 23 by 3 or 4 or 5 or 7 or 11 etc, it can be done, and it sounds fucking awesome how you can imply that the tempo has changed when really you're only dividing differently instead of whole easily counted repetitions
+Travis Vick i have yet to establish this in my own music, but chances are that tosin does use real polyrhythms, not only odd time, because there is a difference between odd time and polyrhythms lol
+Nicolas Arango What is the tempo, 7/8 ?
Still one of the best thing of the internet.
This was fucking beautiful. I loved the upbeat nature of her tempo it was very earthy. My goodness the musical notes
Was this supposed to make you seem like you know what's going on?
oo describing it as 'earthy', thats what i was envisioning
Sethymes I'm deaaaaad 😂😂😂😂😂
It's cool to see how far kelela has come... From singing djent songs to collabing with Solange and arca within just a few years is pretty cool!
10 years later, i still come back to listen to this. I wish they made more music together; i love this collab so damn much. So beautiful, rich and soulful 🖤
So it took me a long, long time to get into the vocals. But now every time I hear this song I can't unhear Kelela's voice on this. If she and Tosin did an album together where she's IN on the writing process and lays down lyrics (none of this T.R.A.M. backing vocal stuff) I'd be all kinds of happy.

This is beyond beautiful and actually difficult to some. The beat alone, but to sing to it is challenging. You have to listen very carefully to the chords. This is just beautifully complex and wonderful.
Who'da thought that adding vocals to "Behaving Badly" would make it more of an absolute BANGER than it already is...
Tosin Abasi for president 2020
Tosin, PLEASE revisit this type of work.
Okay if Animals As Leaders ever needs a vocalist, hire this singer immediately. She's got one hell of a voice!
Hell, if you're not gonna have her sing in your band, I want that voice in mine. :P Genuine respect for her vocal talents!

Tosin is an ever changing, magical guitar player. Constantly learning. I love that.
Discovered kelela because of this vid... Thank you tosin
Would love a whole album of this
They broke up, so that's not going to happen..unfortunately
@@jason1602maybe that’s how your break ups work
I'M SO OBNOXIOUSLY PLEASED THAT THESE TWO ARE DOING SOMETHING TOGETHER. IT'S LIKE WORLDS COLLIDING.
they dated each other here
@DistortedV12 I had no idea! That’s awesome
She sounds amazing. Tosin sounds amazing, as usual. Every now and then it is nice to have some lyrics with this type of music. They both shine.
Man, I know AAL is an instrumental project, but hearing this I can't help but imagine how incredible the resulting music would sound if Kelela joined as singer - it's such a perfect fit with Tosin's songwriting and guitar style. At any rate, I'd love to hear another collaboration at some stage
no... just no, it would kill AAL essence .
The singer's just gotta be much better than Kelela.
I agree with Owen, a similar but separate project would be best, as Animals As Leaders is a dedicated instrumental band (and much more metal than what Tosin is playing here). That said, it would be outstanding.
Kelela might be my favorite singer in the last couple years. Her new album is magical.
This needs to be recorded with the full band. Sounds great. Amazing singer also.
over twelve years later, I'm still waiting for a full album from Tosin and Kelela (2)
I would pay for an album of this! PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN! :)
ABASI IS A MASTER OF HIS ART TRULLY ONE THE BEST 7/8 STRING PLAYERS OF OUR TIME I WOULD NEVER EXPECT ANY LESS OF A COLLABORATION THAN THIS I CANT WAIT TO SEE HIS LATER WORK.
One of the Best guitar players of our time in general not just 7 and 8 strings

Still can’t get over how she put his ass on blast in the “Frontline” music video, included his signature guitar and everything, RUTHLESS!
Omg for real? Didn’t know that song was about him 😂.
@@eylse55 in the music video the animated character looks dead on him so…
@@TheHighestOrderHO Okay. I had never seen the music video which is why I made that comment...
This really sounds like it comes straight outta 80's era King Crimson stuffs. Awesome.
Fell in love with this a year or two ago and it's still one of the best videos on UA-cam
I was nervous about what the vocals would be. The thing I love the most about AAS is that it's instrumental, but the moment she started I got goosebumps all over. Great job!
That reached something never warmed inside of my head.. that was so awesome. I'm inspired to paint a different picture in my playing now.
The saw the guitar and instantly thought, "What a beautiful strandberg"
I need to stop looking at guitars all day
Every now and then I come back to this video because I love it. Thank you :)
Would definitely jam an album of this!!!!!
This is amazing. Tosin can make every genre sound great.
I'd love to see them play this with her as a live band with the visuals they incorporate into their set. Would be wow.
Wonderful vocals on a wonderful music .... i love !
Big fan of you and she did this song justice for real. It’s hard to put vocals to a already vocal song. Still jamming.
For me personally, she probably won't ever be able to top this amazing vocal performance. Such a unique approach, wow!
...Tosin's channel? *subcribes furiously*
THAT'S LITERALLY EXACTLY WHAT I DID
SAME
SAME HERE
zamkowicz SAME
This is just beautiful...love both the instrumental and vocalized versions
A self taught Nigerian metal guitarist and a lost Ethiopian soul sound like this.
Phenomenal! Inspired vocal melody! Floaty, jazzy, soulful bliss!
Abasi, Mighty as always!
look at her now 👑
Love these vox,stunning addition to Tosin's music which,by the way,is heaven in my ears. Eagerly awaiting the drop of the new album. Bigup.
Who said the experimental music can't make love with mainstream???
Fuck them all!
This shit was awesome!
hes a musician not a band dude.
ITSplasticfork He is yes...but this song is from his BAND, Animals as Leaders lol.
ITSplasticfork he's a God, not a musician dude
by mainstream do you mean singing? because that would make you an idiot
Paul Kalugdan No. The Kelela's style of singing (and visual style) is Rihanna-like, or some pop singer.
Girls got insane feeling and control. Hypnotic vibrato/micro-tonal pitch wobbles! More please :-) x
Is this the same Kelela from the song Frontline? I love that song and am just now realizing this might be her
Yes! Her solo music is amazing as well! I realized it was her from this video when I found her solo music years later.
Tosin, you're a monster of a player. The various styles you can play is just insanely awesome. Keep up the great work you beast.
I think this is a good version of that song. I mean, you can see clearly this song wasn't meant to have a vocal line on top of it in first place, but she pretty much catched the vibe and wrote something that fits good, not GREAT, but good. Guys, different is not always bad, it's not like AAL will forbid you to hear the original song from now on...
Wow can’t believe I’ve never seen this till now. Incredible!!!
It would be nice to see him hook-up with Howard Jones formely of KillSwitch Engage.
The pick is his tounge, you can't unsee it.
I love this, beautiful collaboration.
am I trippin or is she talking about GMO plants? If she is, this is even more genius!
She is talking about GMO plants, and also made a reference to the famous poem Strange Fruit by Abel Meeropol.
That's pretty clever if you ask me
Hi Tosin Abasi, you play very well. One of the cool things I love about extended Range Guitars is that they're great for Gospel Music, the lower strings make make it easier to transpose because alot of songs will be transposed to fit the ranges of certain singers/musicians.
You guys really should have recorded her vocals, they sound great but that's my opinion.
This gave me the best spinechills ive had in a long time, the lyrics almost made me overflow with tears of joy, and knowing that tosin is working with a woman now is beautiful as well, i would love to experience more of this tonal duality.
It would be extremely cool if animals as leaders had a vocalist.
Oh god. Please, fuck no. So they genre-ize their music and sell more? Fuck off.
no man, calm down! i just think it would be interesting for them to have a vocalist just for some songs. and why you have to be so fucking agressive ? just because you are on the internet?
Guilherme Luiz Bettini You're right, it would be awesome. I would love to see a side-project of AAL with a singer like Spencer Sotelo, it would fucking rule!
yeah!!
I would love to see a live set of her with the entire band. She has a beautiful voice. Please do it, Tosin!
Idk, I felt the vocals were off putting up until the section at 0:56-1:28 and 2:04-3:35. Kelela is a damn good singer but it's two melodies clashing here
I concur.
TOTALLY DISAGREE
greenespltd Cool, brah.
Kenneth Therriault Agreed. Her vibe and melody doesn't really match the tone of the song. She's singing a pretty sad song, and Behaving Badly has a more upbeat melody
I agree 100% AAL should always be about the instruments...vocals just take away from it.
One of my favorite Animals As Leaders songs and very talented individuals but i have to say i prefer the song being as an instrumental i didn't feel like it all flowed to well together in my opinion.
the syncretism between these two incredibly different styles is unbelievable
this is the deepest shit ive ever heard. people are missing the point...
Tosin, thanks a lot for perfoming such interesting work moments
what a beautiful woman. striking!
This literally gave me the chills. Awesome work, both of you...
Her voice reminds me of Nai Palm from Hiatus Kaiyote... maybe a bit smoother, but the inflection is there. Super good.
yeah for sure with this type of music i hear that
This is a beautiful piece. The original is great, but this had a special place in my hearth since I first discovered it on UA-cam. Amazing work.
5/8, am I right.....
.......Ok, it was at the intro riff
and that was a 7
7/8 the principal riff, 9/8 the outro
Holy snapping shit you gotta love Kelela's voice! And Tosin's playing obviously. You guys should do a proper collab one day! Seen you jamming to her music as well, such a smooth combo.
Are the lyrics from 2020 ?

Yomamas Nekst Do you know what songs those are?
kelela's voice is amazing :D and this song is rather powerful. i can't describe it. it's resonating in my skull and i love it :D
Lol she is singing about.GMO's
How couldnt i know about this! so freakin cool! Tosin should make more vids like this with AAL songs
there's a very "african" vibe to this
As Tosin is African
Michael Smith yeah I found out she's also African, I think Ethiopian (Amhara) specifically
+Cory Jamal Andriani-Williams tho I didn't detect it this way on her album
@@MichaelSmith-ls8fb more like South American vibe to be honest
ANKIT AMAR KASHYAP Bro that definitely does not sound South American. Lol
Wow. Nice work. Such a nice voice. Want a to hear a new song with her on it. Challenging to fit a voice onto an already instrumental tune, but I dig it.
I like her voice but the lyrics 😒 not like I could write any better though
THIS IS AMAZING. AMAZING. THANK YOU GOD, FOR LETTING ME FIND THIS. This is a combination of my favorite genres, soul and technical guitar oriented progressive music.... This is fucking ACE.
White metalheads can't fathom that a black woman with soul can't sing over Tosin's (idk if yall knew this but a BLACK MAN)guitar playing lol. She bodied this
Mmmmmmmmmmmm hmmmmmmmmmmmm you tell em sistaaaaa
Very good voice and as usual great guitar work from Tosin. This was a good addition to the song I enjoyed it a lot :).
great singing, great instrumentation, not great lyrics.
+Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo Agreed
love her vocal approach! so dynamic & very unique!
Mathy af
Yes it is. It's 7/8's complex time. And it doesn't stay in the same rhythm It sometimes switches back and forth between 7/8 and 8/8.
such cliché words.... love tosin though
I remember loving this when it was first posted. Revisited today after many years and it brought tears to my eyes. Y’all need to make babies tbh
I don't like it with vocals. They don't seem to go very well for my ear.
i would spend a hefty lump of cash to hear a whole album with you two
Too bad they broke up
Huh
You should make a video describing your new custom, looks and sounds great!
She's not really adding to his playing. Like, the vocals and guitar do not acknowledge one another. It's like two sounds being layered unintentionally. that maybe the desired effect but i didn't get that impression. Gotta love my man tosin though.
yes she is. shut up
How mature.
I'm just speaking from experience. Been a music student for 8 years and a vocal major for 2,

Yes it does. He's doing lots of Arpeggios and she is singing melodies along with it. I should know because I'm a musician, music major and engineer. But that's neither hear nor there. (seeing that you think that's what validates an opinion). I do have a degree in Music Education
Blew me away....very touched by this.
very bad song ... impressive guitars.
+Fawad Hassan yup
Good song bad vocals is what you mean. What Tosins playing is an animals as leaders. This girls just singing over his song and it's not working. Animals as leaders is an instrumental band for a reason.
why cause you guys are close minded metal heads?
