Excellent point, if you've ever been to a rap concert, is usually just the rappers screaming at the top of their lungs completely off key, sounding nothing like their recordings. Main reason I don't attend rap concerts.
I've never commented on you tube EVER.... This man deserves credit. "The deck, he's gonna' pull out the ace".... Who talks positive, never mind about GOD, and gets played?.... A fucking OG, that's who.... Most definitely the most underrated of my generation... Way to work, brother.... "I'm concerned about what kind of man you are..." ❤️🙏❤️
You deserve more than 10 likes... Ummmm.... I LITERALLY had no idea this was my comment that I was commenting on. I swear to GOD, I didn't! No horse $h|t, Biff!! Why would I make this garbage up?!! It's not even a GOOD story. It's also ABSOLUTELY my second comment ever, too, so I better make this count... 🤡🤣😂 Wow!!! SHITTIN' ME?!! HA!!! It definitely makes me wonder, though. I mean... HOLY EFF-BOMB!! I think I might actually be PREEEEETTY freakin' good if I got myself to comment to myself on a comment that I actually WROTE myself, right?!! This must be what my mentor meant when he called me a waste of space all those years ago... 🫤 EHHH... Oh well. To quote a crazy man, "F*&k it, Dude... Let's go bowling."
Man Mos Def with that Kanye Production...they lucky Mos didnt get a whole album full of classic soulful beats. He woulda took over the whole game. My man got an entire Choir on stage wit him. What a monster this man is.

imho one of the best UA-cam clips
His voice is like a studio recording.
His voice is like the sun shining BRIGHT:)
true! even when he performs live
He was blessed by their top notch equipment. And they were blessed by his excellence as a performer

One of the greatest MCs to have ever lived.

One of the greatest MCs of All time. Powerful song, this one.

New York 🗽 representation by the Mighty Mos Def
Recorded version is great oh no the live one is greater.... gpod music of all times... Respect Mos Def all the way from Tanzania
So much swag in the choir.. the way they move... god damn MOS was so nice in his delivery!!
Live breath control....perfect audio
Saw him live at a college concert. One of the best ever, most rap concerts are all screaming and off key, but not him
İ can't even count how many times I've listened this masterpiece since last night 🌃
Even i am goes with flow
My favorite rapper ever
Reallllllllllllllll Hip-hop artistry in motion!
One of the Greats! Yasiin Bey!
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! Theeeee most underrated rapper ever
Whoa. I had no idea he performed this on Conan. The choir was on point, and he sounded impeccable. Good shit.
Well said...
Mighty Mos Def!
he’s actually a amazing artist
We need more of this on our lifes..one love
one of the best for sure,preach brother Mos Def
Killing it at 3:02
Conan really has a Gem with this Live Performance that no other late night can say they had... Straight Fire
Where would I be without music like this......damn!!!
2021 & still 🔥🤦🏽♀️🔥
Mos Def siempre fue un gran rapero
God this is so fire. Makes me feel good to be alive to hear and feel this.
YES YES
2 of my favorite people on planet earth
Man Mos Def with that Kanye Production...they lucky Mos didnt get a whole album full of classic soulful beats. He woulda took over the whole game.
My man got an entire Choir on stage wit him. What a monster this man is.
I wish that Kanye produced more of his own stuff. I still enjoy his new music but I miss that college dropout era production.
Too real..too raw, too dope. Mos Def/Yaasin, needs to come out with some new ish. Nothing touches the soul like his music.
Look up R.E.D. by A Tribe Called Red. Has them both and is pretty recent.
Mos Def got bars for days
Best live performance.
涙を流すほど良い。どこを探そうと同じ物は見つけることができない。
Legendary Performance
As a youngin' I believed Adults needed to listen up to Mos, Now as an adult I need it even more now."PUT YA HANDS DOWN YOUNGIN THIS IS NOT FOR YOU"
Really cool most dsf the best rapper ever.
one of the greatest of all time. there is no way to rap any tighter than this!!
How, am I only just now seeing this? This is so so good!
this song is fire
So dope! his flow is flawless!
Happy to see him live in 2019 for my first time
YES YES
Something The Lord Made is a classic film love that
best rapper evah
"Put cha hand down, young'n. This is not for you."

Crazy, he sounds just like the recorded version. That's real talent.

In my next life I want that groove…

The idea of an artist like this performing a song like this on a major talk show is laughable these days and that is so sad.
mos def muito foda
Yeah yeah its a brand new day why'all (Let the sunshine in)
Turn me up in the top a little bit dog
Little do you know, why'all gonna hear this one (The suns shinin')
Loud and clear, bright and early
Listen..
I don't hate players, I don't love the game
I'm the shot clock, way above the game
To be point blank with you motherf*** the game
I got all this work on me, I ain't come for play
You can show the little shorties how you pump and fake
But dog, Not to def, I'm not impressed
I'm not amused, I'm not confused, I'm not to dude
I'm grown man business, and I am not in school
Put your hand down youngin' this is not for you
On my +J.O.+ with beats by Kan-ye yo
My name on the marquee, your name off the payroll
Style fresh, like I'm still a day old
And it's been like that since the day yo
On more time than a Roley, or Seiko
Step on deck, your neck do what I say so
Get up or get out, get down or lay low
Standing in the shadow of a fabulous man
Brooklyn n**** I am, Black Dante (Let the sunshine in)
That n****, that dude
Black People, Lets Move (The suns shinin')
Shout out to my man Talib Kweli, yes
We on top-a top-a, shout-a shout-a
Check it out..
Slim n**** that casts a big shadow
Cherokee red to shoot the long arrow
Got more skill, more aim, and more ammo
You can get it all from a big or small barrel
Like, hail Mary, full of grace
N****z come in and shoot up the place
And make you pull up your face
The deck, I'm a pull out the ace
From the jungles of the empire state
where it ain't no escape, 247, 718
And that's like every night, every day
From the place that I settle and stay
To the states, I'm collecting my pay
Blast off then I'm back to the K
Hold it down so my family straight
Represent in a family way
Pro ball not for amateur play
Been raw since the amateur stage
Before the press had the cameras raised
Like a long time man of the way
You understanding me straight (Let the sunshine in)
Yes, yes, no doubt, excellence
Its what it is, what it is
And that's what it is, you see? (The suns shinin')
Ha, Fire..
'Cause it is deeper, sweeter, richer, crisper
Stronger reception and sharper picture
Revolve around God, and involve with n****z
These elements I perform my scripture
And make Mos Def a cla**ic modern figure
Brooklyn it don't matter if you holler or whisper
Your coming through clan, 'cause I'm right here wit'cha
Ain't gotta edit the slang, I got it, I'll get ya
Yo, brothers and sisters, fathers and mothers
The lovers, the leavers, the doubters, believers
The stayers, the quitters, the b****es, the n****z
Rebel guerrillas the ghetto civilians
why'all 'gon feel it from the first to the millionth
It's extra, ordinary and plain
I walk a thousand paces of light ahead of the game
By the time you get where I'm standing, I'll be gone
why'all make moves, but why'all just move on
I move in, and why'all must move on
'Cause I move to strong
And I know what my feet move for (Let the sunshine in)
Made it go without a brand new car
Made it fresh without a brand new song
And give a f*** about what brand you are (The suns shining')
I'm concerned what type of man you are
What your principles and standards are
You understand me why'all
Be good to your family why'all
No matter where your families are
'Cause everybody needs family why'all
Raise a hand, you understand me why'all
Everybody needs family why'all
Be good to your families dog
Understand, no matter where your families are
Everybody needs family dog
Raise a hand, you understand me pa
that's what it is...thats my man
Family and my family Pencil Pete
My man too, all our loved ones behind the walls
All of those who still in the struggle
Masada Malia, Son Dial la, Magic Mel
(Let the sun shine)
Life is real
To all the real soldiers, black people (Let the sunshine in)
We family why'all (The suns shining')
Let it be bright..
Damn Mof Def can sing also 😮🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dope
My brother...
muazzam
4:00 to the end says it all. Legendary
Foda!
🥰🥰🥰
It sounds like the old kanye west beats.. I miss the old good days without mumble rappers.
"Put your hand down youngin' this is not for you
On my "J.O." with beats by Kan-ye yo"
*Listen to the work of my brother FEELFOUND, he really needs support, he is trying.*
MARVEL'S THE DEFENDERS
