I love coming back to this performance, they do such a great job throughout, even with Mike being sick.
Everyone talks about how everyone Raps, but Paper Tiger and Lazerbeak put in WORK in the back there.
these are pros. they are working
wait thats what was up with mictlan? i feel so dukb i thought he was jus like nervous cuz radio lmao
I don't even know how many times I've watched this entire video over the past 2 years. Sometimes just put on the headphones and rock the audio. So good.
dito, mate :-)
Just found this. So rad. Realized as a fan that I've only listened, never watched. Just found the Dessa tiny concert show and now this. So frickin' amazing.
This is my first introduction to this group. It's unusual for there to be so many members, but I love when artists are able to collaborate like this and form a unique partnership. They seem to have a wonderful group dynamic, and I love Dessa's voice.
"shh you gotta rap"
"okay I'm sorry"
They're so epic but also adorable
Lord how I miss this crew. I listened to everything they recorded about a million times, and saw them live whenever I could (in Massachusetts). To me there's never been anyone quite like them.
I had of heard of Doomtree. But I had never heard Doomtree
Holy shit...
Aren't they fucking amazing?!? Each of their solo records are amazing, too.
Wha?
wow..people actually thumbs down this?! i guess people have a harder time appreciating art than feeling the need to be appreciated.
To each his own. I just came across it, and I dont really dig it.
A collective of artists is a timeless idea. Love this! Seek similar minds and create!
I can't stop listening to this performance. My favorite group at the moment...
I've listened to this so many times. Holy shit.
This is fucking brilliant on so many levels.
Wow, speaks to me on so many levels.
I bought the 'No Kings album' and love it. But I still listen to this video at least once a week. There is something beautiful about the little imperfections of a live performance.
I was born and raised in Minnesota. I love your music. It is the music to keep me "censored " I do love all of your solo work I appreciate all of your work. In the end of the day you are known and loved. It strikes hard for the people you have touched. I want more from you all, but I am more willing to pay in for some mercy. Thank you all for everything, I will continue that mercy and strength you give to us all. I show your music . Not because I want to, but it helped me...thank you please continue
If ever there was a group of people that could give us hope for the future of art, passion and collaboration, it's Doomtree. Your circle of inspiration is leaking, thank you!
much love to the MN scene ...would have never known...until I moved to NO, WI
northwoods!
and dessa...gurl..my god! blowing up
much love to you all!-me
chi town btw..but got love in my heart
***love Doomtree****Dessa is amazing...all in all so much talent. I love the support you all have for eachother! Awesome!
Can't believe I get to see them all together alone live. Favorite upload I've seen ever. You got taste.
We don't even live here is a very fast paced raging inspiring.
oh MY!!! WHERE HAVE I BEEN??? THIS IS PHENOMENAL!
How doesnt this have millions of fuggin' VIEWS AND LIKES!??!?!?!?! This is dope
that version of little mercy gave me chills
i literally wept at the end of this. holy shit real hiphop. it's been a long long time coming.
One of my favorite videos on all of the internetz.
musical therapy girl you hearing my thoughts for real!
I loved seeing doomtree at soundset!!!
So happy I found this collective.
Can't believe i put this vid off for so long. For once youtube and spotify was right to recommend them
Rewatching this to prepare myself for tomorrow. Can't wait to see Doomtree!
gold stars for the gold bars, they all spit and original music by the band awesome shit
NEED THIS ALBUM.

If you're lucky enough to live in Minneapolis (like me), you should most definitely check any of their solo shows or the large DTR Blowout that happens every year. One of the best parts about DTR is that they show up in force to support each individual artist in their crew. Crazy good.
My little brother told me about these guys and I'm loving Doomtree. Going to see them with Hellfyre in March! Can't wait!
Hellfyre Club and Doomtree tonight @ The Waiting Room (Omaha, NE) at 9pm. If you're going, then lets party together yo!
My favorite UA-cam video!
Little Mercy ❤️
this was the first doomtree video i ever saw, i read a post about them and looked them up.. damn wut a gem, peace love and good music
Thank you to youtube, and every single one of these peoples mama's
This makes my soul happy.
Happy these videos finally made it online, listened to it live online & at the Croc show!
Just watched the Doom Tree session. Happy to see smiling Sheryl.
"i give them a cheap laugh but i get the joke" holy shit what a fucking line to end the song
The second second is about tripping...a life changing trip obviously.Man, super intense.
It hasn't been 24 hours since I heard this collective and they are bowing my mind.
THANK YOU! I've been hoping these videos would be posted at some point.
Awesome~ MUCH RESPECT TO DOOMTREE & KEXP~
I miss doomtree
Me too, so much.
You guys are amazing!
WOW, just.... WOW!!!
Great session KEXP (as can be expected). I was so disappointed that we didn't have anyone available to do video when they came through KDHX. Thanks for sharing.
beautiful.
The Wu Tang Clan of the Midwest
Super spot on. I never thought of that before
I just saw these guys at the MN state fair and they put on a great show. I am no hip hop expert but it was high energy and they were really enjoying themselves. Good group.
Its a Hip-Hop symphony and the music is the conductor.
This group is fantastic. That being said : goddamn Dessa is a damn goddess.
Also:
“I am reborn. But i am not me. No identity. And I am finally free. “
Love from South Africa
many thanks to KEXP for this great music .
That ending was so fucking amazing. Props to Mike Mictlan
I like all of them, and their style, and their approach, and they are all handsome, and I would let all of them read me a book to go to bed, and I bet they hold doors open for people, and I bet they make great soup. I'm gonna read the comments, I bet someone wishes they wore more gold, acted more hard, and were less grounded, were less white, because that's what comments sections are about. Whatever, for any of that, they have earned a nice meal at my house if they come back through this time next year. This is what family looks like.
Noah Goyette completely correct from every possible angle. I love you and thank you for putting it succinctly.
brand new Doomtree fan, all the way from New Zealand.
this is incredibly nice, thanks for uploading.
I totally agree and I just discovered it today.
unbelievable awesome!!!!
creativity at its fucking finest.
Just saw them perform at Launch Sacramento and they killed it! Awesome live performers
I am officially a fan. This is excellent.
Their coffee table book: blogs.citypages.com/gimmenoise/2014/07/doomtree_book_hits_coffee_tables_in_august.php
Yes!
This is an amazing performance from a great Hip-Hop group!
way too much awesome is happening in one spot...I'll have to watch it again :)
Great video. Thanks for posting.
LOVE this
So glad you guys did this one!! Would love to see a session with Moritat playing their 'Clill Blanzin' . Peace
Sick.
KEXP is the greatest radio station on Earth.. True story.
Rap really needs this. I'm so sick of hearing how cool people are, and how much sex they're having with their pockets filled with money.
Rap actually has it in abundance, particularly concentrated in the Twin Cities, Seattle and the Bay area in California. It's just that it doesn't get the mainstream play that the stuff you mentioned does. Generally can't go wrong with Doomtree, Rhymesayers, Heiroglyphics, Blue Scholars, Common Market, Bambu, Sage Francis...etc.
rap is not hiphop. THIS shit right here is raw pure and unadulterated hiphop music. however, im not trying to argue semantics here... the bottom line is forlornspawn817 is completely dead on.
GlennMatthew Williamson
I fully agree with you about rap and hip hop. Also, thanks.
I fuckin agree... this is pure hip hop , raw rhyme skills at its finest,,,
downwithcheesecake love the peace in this conversation. UA-cam really needs this. I'm so sick of seeing people hating on other opinions
THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME
Unbelievable, found this checking out Grieves cuz he opens for Pepper tonight, this vibe is so contagious, I need more!
úžasné!!!
P.O.S.
Strengths: Amazing flow, snappy wordplay, versatility
Weaknesses: NONE
Dessa
Strengths: Raps and sings seamlessly. Fantastic lyrics. Also very versatile.
Weaknesses: NONE
Mike Mictlan
Strengths: Energy, speed, great flow. Fun to listen to.
Weaknesses: Lyrics are often silly and meaningless.
Sims
Strengths: Charisma. Capable of great verses. Nice change-up in vocal tone from the other members. Spat pure fire on their S/T album.
Weaknesses: Too many weak verses. Better on solos and duets, weaker on the ensemble songs. His Doomtree work has gone a bit downhill since the s/t album. NO weaknesses from that album alone.
Cecil Otter
Strengths: Has good cohesive ideas when he's also a producer, e.g. Heavy Rescue. Capable of strong lyrics. Also has great clarity; I can understand every word.
Weaknesses: For all his strong lyrics he has weak ones too. Sometimes goes cornily stream-of-consciousness on us. Also not really a lot of charisma.
I love the group, but P.O.S. and Dessa are the bread and butter of Doomtree. And Lazerbeak, of course.
POS is by far and away my favorite hip hop artist, whats crazy is i can also call him one of my favorite punk artists as well, hes incredibly talented!
Now she's got an interesting voice. Potential for greatness..?
MINNESOTA ON THE MAP!!!
love this music you guys are amazing so glad I looked you up after I heard you on welcome to nightvale
P.O.S Respect tha skill!
I watched some other live performances of theirs after watching this one first. And I must say, KEXP, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have gotten into this awesome band. Their other sets sounded like noise to me through their recording devices. This was perfect. Great band and great station.
Dude comes hard always.
@ 21:00 Cecil Otter absolutely kills me. I just got a signed copy of Dessa's book for an early Christmas present. I could not be happier. I LOVE DOOMTREE!
This is so fucking dope
I bought that coffee table book at the POS/Dessa show. love your poetry girl!
truth, just enjoy what speaks to you.... youtube words don't change people's minds, they just invoke rage
Nice!
Saw Doomtree last Saturday. May i simply say it was an experience i am Very glad i did not miss. Feeling blessed... my feet hurt from wearing high heels and Jumping. Yah!
This is really a seven-head-allstar-group :-) "like"... where is the LOVE-button??
Each of them could easily stand for him/herself, but all of them together are definitely way more than just the sum of the single pieces.
Congrats and all the best wishes to Beak and his girl for Penny!
Saw Sims live in germany and bought his "Bad Time Zoo". Amazing artist and doomtree is an amazing band. Love from germany
And they have a nice Maschine drummer :)
Love that P.O.S. is rocking the First Ave. hat!
wow my soul
I bow to you
my soul is surfing
speechless
tttthanx
dance....dance....dance
greetings from germany;-)
.....
18:05 if you're inclined to skip the interview.
That last verse that Mictlan lays down... GodDAMN what a heroic effort.
respect
Every time Mike Mictlan comes on the mic, shit just blows up.
Doomtree sounds awesome live, Please come visit D.C...#930club would love to have you!
Great venue! Ive been there about 50 times and has always been one of my favorites
Their coffee table book just released a few days ago haha
Cecil Otter has a good voice and a cool flow. Some talented emcees there. People that don't get this are weird.
If it wasn't for their live performance during kanrocksas at kansas motor speedway i would have never gotten into them.
Fuck yeah! Dessa, SiMS and Cecil all are so awesome. POS lead me to DoomTree. i'm so glad i found him years ago
