DUDE! 100%. Breaking up was the dumbest thing for them to do. They had to shelf a pretty much finished album and set back their careers because they were going to be the next big thing. Like, RTJ before RTJ hit.
man I feel old. times flies. I rem seeing this trending on the frontpage of youtube back when I was like 11-12 yos. I'm now 24. crazy lmao. felt like yesterday I was binging these dudes music.
the "Whos that? Brooown!" sample is from Scenario by A Tribe Called Quest. they also make references to it. like "chickity choco the choclate chicken" is from that song. and 2:28 references a part to...
Hell yeah, some of my all-time favorite games from the 80's are here: Elevator Action, Frogger, Leisure Suit Larry, Double Dragon, Zelda, Rampage, and Tetris. That was the golden age of video games for sure!
I'm always finding another layer of nuance to Das Racist songs, even though I've been listening to them on/off for years. And with Kool A.D. and Heems still going at it with their own stuff I'm sure I'll get to keep finding more nuances to those songs for years to come too. That's a sign of true artists if you ask me.
The subliminal message here is how the gaming crowd is getting put in with the hip hop and rap crowds, we are bad for the youth. Awesome song and awesome video, takes me way back to the days i was introduced to both, nothing beat those 8-bit days
No matter what Das Racist does from here on out they will forever be gamer legends with this homage to the 16/32 bit era. Well played, surprised I never saw a video like this made before since commercials have been doing these kind of parodies for years.
this video is the gameplay of videogame from their site. it is on a 3 minute timer. this makes it hard for the 1st time player to win. the instructions and dialogue do not stop the timer. the controls change for each stage, so taking the time to learn how to play may cause the counter to expire.
Lol I like how they sampled the chorus from "Scenario". Anyway people need to stop complaining about about Das Racist is weird and like to have fun. Lil Wayne and a bunch of other rappers can go completely go off topic or lack one all together, but as long as they have a cliched video and a few witty punchlines no one will even notice or care.
This one is from their mix tape, I believe. And the mix tape had a bunch of unlicensed samples on it, so I think it didn't go on Spotify for that reason.
For sure! This Friday I’ll have been married 10 years, I’ve got 2 awesome kids, a solid career that also got us through COVID, and I’m definitely not as dumb as I used to be.
@@LombardoJoe Congrats! Time does fly doesn't it. Wonder where I'll be 10 years from now. Your 2 kids must be proud that their daddy is open minded to different kinds of music, art, and expression.
@autodidactic Sorry... my bad... you are right it's on Tribe's song "Scenario" but it's Charlie Brown from L.O.N.S. saying the actual line. (no worries haha I am an old man)
@NZWolf2 You forgot to capitalize the beginning of your sentence. You should've put quotations around the word "Browwwwn". Also, there was no need to capitalize that particular word. OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SNIGGITY SNAP! Daaaaaaaaaaaayyyym yooooo!!!!! Jyeah!!! Wommaaaawn!!!!
@RevolutionNoir Mainstreamers, man. They're the bane of the music industry. The song itself isn't good though. But this is easily the best video I've seen in a long time.
man, das racist was so cool back in the 10's, I really wish they was still together :(
me too....
Way happen?
Too much racism couldn't hold it together.....
They still are some got family now not kids anymore God bless them

the 7 train is filled with gentrifying yuppies (a.k.a. our fan base)
I only listen to rappers who would be disappointed that people like me listen to them
I try to let other cultures be whatever they are. Anti-gentrification, but I'm white as the day is long.
@@kindle9597 damn I hate how true that is for me

Sadly, this comment has not aged well.
@@SamSchillingwhat happened? Please enlighten me
This is the best film clip ever.
bring this game back
The subliminal message here is how the gaming crowd is getting put in with the hip hop and rap crowds, we are bad for the youth. Awesome song and awesome video, takes me way back to the days i was introduced to both, nothing beat those 8-bit days
This is playing at the Milwaukee Film Festival. So stoked.
why isnt this song on gta 5
It's political I guess
Why didn’t any anti-Illuminati DR song end up on the Illuminati-run mainstream radio stations? That’s more what I wonder 🤔
I'm very glad that this video is available in high definition. Thank you for that.
The level of HD has increased since 10 years ago. 720p was good back then.
Das Racist and Danny Brown should do another collabo and remix this song
my brother's been listening to this song all holiday. it is stuck in my head.
Do you still listen to it? Is it still stuck in your head?
@the man 1 Do you reckon Hannah Hannah passed away?
Man im 26 in 5 days used to listen to this when i was like 13.
and I'm 46 in about 165 days and I've been listening to them since 2012
@@boxofjosh Hell yeah
One of the best songs and video in the history of everything
i dig all the old school video game shout outs.
Why all the hate? Das Racist is great! Do you just not like rap? If that's the case, what are you doing watching the video?
This mix has a ton of static that sneaks in, especially near 3:00
No matter what Das Racist does from here on out they will forever be gamer legends with this homage to the 16/32 bit era. Well played, surprised I never saw a video like this made before since commercials have been doing these kind of parodies for years.
I am completely in love with the fact that someone ripped Abobo's sprite from Double Dragon for NES and transformed him into a guido for this video.
Audio does not agree with my speakers. Other youtube videos of this song sound fine.
+Reebokanonymous Ditto! Getting a bunch of popping after 0:20 and I swear this very video didn't do that before.
AnxiousGary I have a theory that the longer a video is on UA-cam the more fragmented it gets.... i.e. lossy audio or choppy video
hurts my ears when wearing ear phones.
I love these days
i love how this is sampled from a tribe called quest. too fucking awesome
Actually it’s leaders of the new school featured on a tribe song... thanks for listening
I miss hanging with you boys .. the underground storyline would be left too
love the nod to the golden era of adventure games.
police quest for life.
king's quest for life.
space quest for life.
so legendary
@bluedog92929 I think the fact that they made an accompanying game to the actual music video for listeners to interact with is pretty revolutionary.
Never noticed how the very top end of this mix until now. Has some crazy snaps. I think the main bass synth could have been made with NI Massive too.
here we go yo so what so whats sowhats the scenario
I was listening to that song before this one.
this is one of the best vids evar. DAS RACIST quest
this video is the gameplay of videogame from their site. it is on a 3 minute timer. this makes it hard for the 1st time player to win. the instructions and dialogue do not stop the timer. the controls change for each stage, so taking the time to learn how to play may cause the counter to expire.
So awesome that the game is playable.
I found either signing in and out or clearing your browsing history helps with the black screen problem.
"WHO'S THAT? BROWN AND YELLOW
BROWN AND YELLOW
BROWN AND YELLOW"
REEEEMIXXX!!!
Hey bro whatsup. I am from 10 years in the future. Do you still listen to this song?
This video is #$@%$# DOPE!!!
Props to 8-bit.
Do you still think its dope?
@@awrjkf hell yea! Forgot all about this.
THAT"S AWESOME!! I like the old Sierra game references! Especially Leisure suit larry!
Why are so many commenters upset by this video?! It's hilarious, and a fairly clever concept. I guess we can look to the 958 likes VS 128 dislikes?
I miss these guys
Just realized the hat at 1:45 is the same fitted I've got hanging up.
Do you still have it hanging up?
Best music video ever.
YES!!! 2:09 is straight outta the Temple of Doom Video Game!
Why does this have so many dislikes? It's one of their best songs and the video is just as good.
i didnt even realize Saba made this beat and now i bump his shit all the time lol
This is the best song I've ever heard. Ever.
This is dope!
First time I watch a music video and not take my eyes of the screen once, congrats Das Racist! :)
The background at 3:08 was from the '87 Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards game. I love Das Racist.
Produced by Saba???? Like the rapper Saba currently?
They played this on th projectors at Bumbershoot Seattl three days ago and it seemed differant, and better. The bass on those speakers was hella hard!
Why do so many people dislike this awesome song and video? Not tryin to start %^$&, serious question.
This was the most epic win ever… so sick!!!!
Thanks! The song is actually called Rainbow in the Dark, it appears, but I found it anyway.
@agurf2 Correction: ATCQ featuring Leaders of the New School. C Boogie Brown from Leaders spit that line

@RabidLeper im disappointed there's no 1080 :(
@DJEvillincoln should they eat the whole bag? or each one individually?
i can't even pay attention to the rhymes cause i'm too busy jamming on the sickest fucking beat. soo good. WHO'S THAT BROOOWN
Do you still listen to it 10 years later?
"Inspired by the work of Ken and Roberta Williams". SO AWESOME.
AWESOME!
why isn't this on spotify?
This one is from their mix tape, I believe. And the mix tape had a bunch of unlicensed samples on it, so I think it didn't go on Spotify for that reason.
@@RojayBimpson it’s on spotify now
@SeanChiruchi Unix Shell. Wikipedia it. If you have a mac, it's what you access when you open terminal.
Possibly the greatest group of all time.
My name is Adam Brown.
I often go by "Brown".
This is now my anthem
Shoplift Irony Beer made me laugh. Great video.
I've never heard of you guys before, and I'm not sure how this ended up in my recc
Is it still in your recc?
LMAO this was 10 years ago. I don’t think so, I forgot all about it.
@@LombardoJoe Would you say in the past 10 years you have become more mature, loving, kind, and happy?
For sure! This Friday I’ll have been married 10 years, I’ve got 2 awesome kids, a solid career that also got us through COVID, and I’m definitely not as dumb as I used to be.

Who's That Kootra!!!!!!?
Why am I finding a comment from sly from 9 years ago with no likes and no comments?
LOVE !
I definitely just got so caught up in the video I didnt listen nothing but the word "brown this whole time"

@cjclause1oo It was doing that to me until about five minutes ago. Are you using Chrome?
Rainbow in the Dark - Das Racist another great song by them
not my usual prefered music, but the thought behind this is brilliant!

"downtown like julie"
damn
I wanna play this game...
I probably only payed attention to 1/3 of this song, bc I was soo into the video narrative
took me about five times to figure that i had no idea what the song or video meant
@RevolutionNoir Mainstreamers, man. They're the bane of the music industry.
The song itself isn't good though. But this is easily the best video I've seen in a long time.
Damn I never realised Das Racist are awesome.
Do you still think they were awesome.
@@awrjkf Hell yeah, DR forever
What is that beat that starts at 3:40? The Dilla sirens are sick
I wonder how many people watching this are old enough to get the reference of the style these graphics are done in.
I like this !
@FrankPifiorati This is BRILLIANT.
Shouts out to Saba!!
