I miss the late 90s early 2000s era: Floetry, Lauryn Hill, Musiq, India Arie, Jill Scott, Amel Laurieux, Macy Gray, Angie Stone, Erykah Badu, Goapele, D'Angelo, Maxwell, Raphael Saddiq, Slum Village, Lucy Pearl♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
+Eissac O your sad ? I was born in 2000 so I didn't even get a taste, but it does make your appreciation for it greater . I just wish everyone else in my generation will realize what's good music from whats trash .
Its amazing how 12 years ago when this record dropped that if you look at videos from back then they were filled with so much life, and color, and most of all love. We are truly living in the dark ages. Be blessed everyone.
The women of Floetry......Marsha Ambrosius & Natalie Stewart........created pure MAGIC together in the recording studio, and on stage. They shared a unique, special chemistry that set them apart from their peers on several levels. Although both women are brilliant individual artists......that SPECIAL MUSICAL CHEMISTRY has not been repeated since their separation. Floetry is a classic example of 2 being better than 1.
This the type music I get high to. Picture this Floetry, Lalah Hathaway, Angie Stone, Eryka Badu, Jill Scot, India Arie , and Ledisi collaborate and make a CD
The energy of Floetry is very inspirational. Having a floacist with a sultry and poetic voice that traveled down your spine and a songtress with a uniquely odd voice was a great combo. "That's what's up!"
Just might be the single most underrated group and song in R&B history. These girls don't play! I mean it's 2017 and 50 years from now this shit will still be a banger.
I had the pleasure of seeing them on 4/20 here in Philly, and meeting them after the show. and they've only gotten better. So down to earth, talented musicians and Marsha sounds even better live...I'm so thankful to GOD that i grew up in this era and was exposed to this real good, feel good music...
@@samplelab yeah. There's good stuff out there but you have to wade through all the crap to find it. And a lot of people, myself included, don't have the time
I am from the island of Barbados but this song brings back memories of when I used to visit West and South Philly summer time in 1999 late early 2000s as a teenager. Great era for R&B/soul music. Big up Philly (Gallery Mall, 69th Steet) NJ, my seccond homes. #memories
This song makes me so happy and sad at the same time! I don’t recall the first time I heard this song as a young girl but I was and still is obsessed🙌🏽. Wish I could back, no stress and worries dancing to Floetry💃🏽
2002, 18 years old, senior year of high school, responsibilities weren't completely out of control, had my health, and a lot of my family, and old friends were still around. Can I have it back... pretty please? :(
Wasn't a good year for me at all. It was the start of my depression period.......I still caught these videos, but didn't enjoy them as much as I should have back when they were fresh.
Don't nothin beat those sexy slow jams from the 90's & early 2000's. 💯 They had hella baby makers and panty droppers back then, black love at its finest back then. 💯 I'm glad I grew up in that era back then. 💯 It was live. 💯
I can appreciate all the comments posted. Due to the many life distractions I have not really listened to Floetry until recently. I must say I am blown away by their creativity and golden voices. Now, I grew up on Motown and I can and do appreciate Floetry. Great music is great music no matter what era of time.
Pardon I. But when this song was out. It was some of the best time of my life. I felt it so inside me. Life Flowed! Best Song for Me Ever. I totally remember where I was. I woke up & went to bed smiling!
This video remind me so much of Lauryn Hill "everything is everything" except her video was a record player. I like the way Floetry video look like a stereo with the houses and buildings.
I was going into the 8th grade when this record dropped. I’m beyond blessed and grateful I got to experience the early 2000’s during my childhood. I notice when watching videos like these that there was still a innocence left within world and once the 2010’s hit all of that seem to have went away. Beautiful simpler times though.

Sharissa Davision yes neo soul kinda died huh 🙁
tyrese
Sharissa Davision You better talk it, so accurate
it's women like floetry erykah badu and lauryn hill that the hip hop and r&b/neo soul world's are missing
Angie Stone...
India arie
Des'ree too. Gotta Be
@Mz. Val India Arie
They out there just not as big the industry not gone push them
I remember watching this video on 106 & Park as a kid. God, I miss real music like this!
Bro I swear it brings back good memories... That's where I seen this too
Facts
My uncle was in this music video
I still remember it being a “New Joint” on there...
Same
Miss the neo-soul era... sigh. Glad I lived through it to appreciate it.
sadly i was born in 95 so i didn't get to live through it. This just makes my appreciation for it even greater
+Eissac O your sad ? I was born in 2000 so I didn't even get a taste, but it does make your appreciation for it greater . I just wish everyone else in my generation will realize what's good music from whats trash .
UA-cam all the great music before you Eissac O and Kayla. I am glad to grow up all of 80's and 90's when music was the best.
*lived** it's still still around
awesome Cool good music hip-hop r&b soul neo matter love song best ever
I don’t think y’all understand what these ladies delivered to our ears.... may the most high bless them..
This track So nostalgic it’s giving me goosebumps
This song is such a breath of fresh air. Sounds that never get out dated. The golden era of music 👏🏾🎼🎶
It's Floetic!
Its amazing how 12 years ago when this record dropped that if you look at videos from back then they were filled with so much life, and color, and most of all love. We are truly living in the dark ages. Be blessed everyone.
Straight up! In these times, This video wouldn't be even played!!!! We need music like this, but corporate won't allow good music to reach the masses.
true statement, too much negativity in the world.
@@DMoney505 of
Nooo but I didn’t realize until you mentioned it. 😞
They have came out of hiding and recruiting more demons,i miss the 80s and 90s foreal
Those were the last days of good music, right at the turn of the Millennium.
So true, in so many genres as well. Such a shame how its all gone.
agree!
Painfully true
One of my fav songs of all time.. Groove is so timeless and infectious!
I agree!
indeed!!

I can't help but move when I play this and it's 2019

To me it was Floetry and Zhane'
@@1969Makaveli Zhane? Really? I dont hear anything special in Zhane. Then again I only know 2 of their radio hits. Maybe I will go see what you mean.
This the type music I get high to. Picture this Floetry, Lalah Hathaway, Angie Stone, Eryka Badu, Jill Scot, India Arie , and Ledisi collaborate and make a CD
This is the kinda music who never ages it grows from generation to generation I grew up with this kinda vibe.....feel good music....
The energy of Floetry is very inspirational. Having a floacist with a sultry and poetic voice that traveled down your spine and a songtress with a uniquely odd voice was a great combo. "That's what's up!"
Man this new music can not touch the old jams. I sound like a old man but we was rocking back in the day!
i can listen to this kind of music all day
Who still here in 2019 🙋🏽
R
Who here in 2020
Here in 2020!
2020 during corona.timeless piece

Yeas great yr!!
Just might be the single most underrated group and song in R&B history. These girls don't play! I mean it's 2017 and 50 years from now this shit will still be a banger.
I was 13 when this first came out. Now I'm 27. lol
? And your point?
+j black lmfao
we are the same age
Jasmine Richardson I was about 7 or 8 when this came out now I'm 22 😂😂
Jasmine Richardson SAME!! Fell on love with this song via 106th & Park, Hell I turned my mama onto them and Jill Scott too!!
This exactly how New York looking rn
That early 2000s neo soul era was everything.
I miss 2002 playing outside with my friends 😔😩😩
Popped in my head upon waking up this morning! This dope music 🎶 will never go out of style!! 💃🏽🧡
I had the pleasure of seeing them on 4/20 here in Philly, and meeting them after the show. and they've only gotten better. So down to earth, talented musicians and Marsha sounds even better live...I'm so thankful to GOD that i grew up in this era and was exposed to this real good, feel good music...
I'm so mad/sad we dont music like this mainstream anymore
Became an instant fan once I heard the melody and Marsha's voice. Bought this album the 1st week it dropped like my depended on it lol. #LoveFloetry
This is one of the coolest, most imaginative music videos ever. I’m mad at how underrated both the video and song are.
I can't believe this is what used to be on the radio in the early 2000s, what I'd do to go back. We didn't know what we had.
There was a lot of garbage in the charts in the early 00s
@@dannydorko7075 Now we have the same garbage but without the good music.
@@samplelab yeah. There's good stuff out there but you have to wade through all the crap to find it. And a lot of people, myself included, don't have the time
@@dannydorko7075 yep, it's def not on the radio

We be feelin alright....
I use to swear they was from Philadelphia even with the accents lol
Yep and they sampled a classic hip hop record... Bucktown Smif N Wesson
Black women bringing the talent.I love this.
Funny they reppin' West Philly but they shot this video in North Philly/ Germantown & Lehigh!
Ron The Rippler Just told my kids that ❣️
Yes, and both ladies are from the UK. That is even crazier...
This on 11th and tioga
1:30 the original mannequin challenge!!
omg i was gonna comment the same hahahaha
Khali Johnson indeed
Sayyyy!
Actually at 0:38
Hi
CLASSIC!! 2002 … reminds me of summer … GREAT MEMORIES
Marsha was at her best when she was in Floetry
Bucktown sample
If anyone can sit through this song without wanting to dance or rollerskate they don't have any soul....This is rockin!!!!
The fact that they’re English makes this so refreshing. This is so cool!
British were always influenced musically by African Americans. Like a big brother does his younger siblings. We are fam so it's all love
I had no idea they were British when I was little haha
This song makes me so happy and sad at the same time! I don’t recall the first time I heard this song as a young girl but I was and still is obsessed🙌🏽. Wish I could back, no stress and worries dancing to Floetry💃🏽
2002, 18 years old, senior year of high school, responsibilities weren't completely out of control, had my health, and a lot of my family, and old friends were still around. Can I have it back... pretty please? :(
Damn!. Same story here, same age and everything you said.
22 years later and I'm still on
Love the fact that they sampled Duck Down for this the song “Original Gun Clappaz” 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bucktown bruh
THAT PHILLY BLUNT JOINT HERE STILL BUMPING YALL 2019 AND MO😁😚😍😀
Good to hear rap music where the N word isn't being thrown around excessively or having lyrics pertaining to thug culture. Definitely approve!
If you have a pulse, I bet it's thumping right along to this.
True and be well keep strong. #
2020 we still hear. Good music will never die🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦that's what's up
CLASSIC grooves that are timeless!
My daddy played this shit all the time and I finally found it. ❤️ 🔈
Holiday life mix with jazz goodvibe Dad. 🍾 Awesome living to you. Love good music myself. ✌
Smiff n Wissun-Bucktown?
They used the same sample
I was lookin for this comment
@@dcint6692 me too
only real hip hoppers would recognize where the beat was inspired from.
they were way ahead of everybody else with the Mannequin challenge. haha! dope track
Anyone notice the beat sounds like smif n Wessun bucktown?
+omari lawes Same Born to be Blue sample from Jack Bruce
i noticed it, I was just viben that beat
2002 was such a soulful year for Hip -Hop and R&B. My goodness what happened to those times :(
Wasn't a good year for me at all. It was the start of my depression period.......I still caught these videos, but didn't enjoy them as much as I should have back when they were fresh.

I was 23
My childhood. I remember seeing them live when I was a little kid at an outdoor festival with Erykah Badu and Jon B... *sigh* I miss these times.
Is this the bucktown sample ?
Michael Papamarkou yes indeed
This video remind me so much of Lauryn Hill "everything is everything" except her video was a record player. I like the way Floetry video look like a stereo with the houses and buildings.
This is 21 years old! I feel old! 😂
heeeeyyy. i remember this on 'guess who'
I can't believe this song is 10 years old!
I was going into the 8th grade when this record dropped. I’m beyond blessed and grateful I got to experience the early 2000’s during my childhood.
