[htowngurl17]

omg i know that gurl at 3:07 in the red shirt

[jacquita33]

I LOVE THIS SONG AND THE VIDEO THANKS R KELLY

[ecotts]

I don't like this video, its almost like its been edited by the bush administration. Didn't really show the true images that people found really hard to deal with such as face down children, adults and animals floating and bloating down the streets, people being miss treated by officials, the rapes and murders that took place in the stadium, the government failing to respond quick enough, or the fact that the government failed to put substantial measures in place to prevent ALL OF THIS!!!!!!!!

[pattycarljackson]

@ecotts they are not allowed to show that type of stuff on here maybe they are but why would you people know what happened people know there were bodies everywhwere

[aarrocks15]

this is a great ass song! r kelly keep up the good work!! and ppl who want to talk shit go for it! but i bet u any money ppl from new orleans appreciates this song! and god bless the ppl who helped the ppl of new orleans!

[MondoBeno]

What do we learn from this?

NEVER rely on the Federal Government for ANYTHING! Whatever they give you, they charge you double.

[daddysfavorite505]

the only people who know how bad this storm was  are the people who could have experienced it . i live in new orleans and before katrina we evacuated and we had to leave my dad behind because he was a doctor and i was scared that whole year because i was afraid i would never see him again.

[maureen1002]

@daddysfavorite505 god bless your father to forget his own needs in order to help others!! Wish there were more people like that in this world!

[himmaggin]

7.0 earthquake just hit Haiti. Rally for our people!!!!!

[talbot1992]

[nyah89]

All respect to R.Kelly for making this beautiful song and the one for VT!!

[millybee1234]

i love this song !!!

but its sad :(

[jinnylynn08]

i live in louisiana to and it sucks that the hurricanes happen but not everyone is doing something bad for singing a song of encouragement chill out!

[CMHandC]

R.E.S.P.E.C.T. the KING of R & B

[whatis364]

Rkelly is the greatest he needs to make a tv show picking talent to sing or make a group cuz diddy can't do it cuz diddy ain't got it!

[krpvids23]

This is a sad vid :(

[adprodoction]

what can i say R.Kelly is the best

[gdude545]

sure R.Kelly is th best... at pissing on children

[macayll]

lil bytch

[shane092589]

i dont see a R Kelly video tribute to the people in Iowa about the floods THIS year, not in 2008...or in 2009. O wait, we are white..nevermind.

[xHAZORx]

He made a song for the people that were killed at Virginia Tech. There are white people there. He can't make a song about every tragic event.

[Tru2DaGame23]

but that shows that he cares

[95PurpleHaze]

ha, man I live In louisiana and im with you on that one.

[filnobep]

@shane092589 the people in Iowa didnt effect much, so maybe like me, never heard about a flood there... until reading your comment. everybody knew about katrina, what happened, the problems with fema, HELP & how the country acted, etc.

You're being ignorant, white people died in the waters. Maybe you live in Iowa or something.

[Kissy731]

i've been looking for the footage of the BET telethon since it aired. DOES ANYONE HAVE IT??

[GorgeousANDchameleon]

can anyone tell me what the name of this song is?

[eastboston7]

i believe its called LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE.

[cycreek7]

can anyone let me kno what the name of this song?

[WrestlingKingTV]

"Let your Light Shine"

[korvelo]

avoidable pain and suffering...

stay away from low ground unless you live in a tall home and ABOVE ALL DON'T LIVE IN A DISPOSABLE PIECE OF JUNK..

IT'S EASY TO BUILD HURRICANE PROOF.

sad to see that they're building and living in the same inadequate homes ..MAYBE THE NEXT HURRICANE WILL MISS THEM!!!!!!!..............INSAN­E

[therealmzjones]

Wonderful Song!!!!!!!! Kells do your thang. God is looking over them all.

[RKELLYGEEK]

Agree :D

[iLovemajdal]

R piss on 13 r old children Kelly make a song about rebate checks ' cuss we needs hope fa

whats did to us nation ' . when there is trouble run. don' t be curious and wait . like 911 people walked toward a falling building to see it in real life and lost there lives . when they could have got out of the way of the brave emergency response teams who had to force a path through sight seeing, picture taking residents .

[kwilli33]

my heart & prayers go out to N. O. we have ppl here from there. our govt should be ashamed billions to banks & still N. O. looks like Baghdad SHAME ON AMERICA!!!

[kafal86]

you're only the best for me

[blueydbttrfli038]

I still miss home even after all the shit that we all had to go through. I hope that things get better for all of us.

[BuryTheViolence]

so sad.

[girlstorm09]

i watch many katrina videos and i like wathcing them but i think this paticular song would be a good song to deteacate to 3 paticular friends of mine who seen to be going though alot in there lifes. they also would relate to this song too.

[l7ary]

Hey anybody remember the B.E.T telethone they had for hurricane Katrina and R.kelly Was on there singing this song and he was crying

I wish someone could somehow post a video of that

[admiralwasteland]

R piss on 13 r old children Kelly make a song about rebate checks ' cuss we needs hope fa

[babiygirl4life]

this song made me cry

[cakemann15]

shit fucd up down there we need a change

[concordmarcus]

r kelly is amazing at making songs to remember shocking moments just like RISE UP WHEN THE VA TECH MASSACRE HAPPENED.

[babylurveboi]

mi pussy is dripping

teen+blowjob equals lots of views . CHECK ME OUT MF

[bryntec]

( this vid makes me so sad. some1 msg me!! xD d

[frankco6]

R.Kelly is a genius. he makes inspirational songs. The guy has no equal. this song is delicated to all liberian..

[rdangelo]

Genius? Boy do you have low standards.  Listen to Stevie Wonder or Steely Dan for songwriting genius, not this fucking no-talent.

[jedi3888]

its ironic how a hurricane is only water which human beings are 80% water and wind which is 15% of what we need being oxygen can create such havoc i just went through hurricane ike and it was nothing the only reason hurricanes kill people for about 90% of the part is not evacuating the manditory spots.

[negotiator84]

motherfucking BUSH!!!

i just cant believe that he let this shit happen to our own city and people.

for the ones we've lost RIP

[rdangelo]

FUCKING ASSHOLE. All Bush did was offer help which was REFUSED by the gov. and the mayor. And you morons reelected him? You get what you deserve, jerkoffs.

[negotiator84]

hey dumbfuck go do some research and get some facts befor trying to sound smart and not knowing shit. you cant even come up with an argument all you just said was a bullshit opinion! "the gov. refused"??? whos running the gov. asshole. bush didn't show up in golf region until five fuckin days later you retarded peace of shit!

[rdangelo]

By gov. I meant Governor, Einstein. Bush offered, Blanco and Nagin refused. That's not opinion, it's fact. Nagin and the governors are the ones that have blood on their hands for not letting FEMA in. YOU learn some fucking facts and stop trying to smear the president.

[negotiator84]

where'd you get your facts from? FOX News!? asshole!!!!!!!!!!!

since when does the governor or the fuckin mayor tell the commander in chief what to do? it's like the sergeant telling the general what to do? bush, our president ( that probably you, not me voted for) was at his ranch in texas and showed up five days later, not to actually see for himself what happened but to go to a briefing so people can tell him what happened! i agree though - FEMA fucked up big time!

[fire868rescue]

THIS WOULD BE WHY MISSISSIPPI RECOVERED ALOT FASTER....WE ACCEPTED THE HELP INSTANTLY. and by the way half the people on here talkin shit didnt loose anything.. how about knowing your house was gone but going to try to find people.... shut the fuck up if you didnt go through it and have a nice day

[squiggyjew]

u know what i dont get? shit like this happens every second in other countires but the second it happens to america the whole world stops and makes a fucking song about it. even like 9/11, that happens all the time in the middle east and more people die but i cant remember the last time there was a tribute to that for them and the thousands that die everyday there.

[phdingaming]

Actually wrong. Thousands, and thousands died in 9/11... And whens the last time a major terrorist attack in another country happened that we DIDNT recoginize on our local news that killed thousands of people. Dont talk out of your ass if you have no idea what your talking about.

[asscurt]

squiggy, you say all that but what aid did we get from other countrys, tell me that why we cant sing about our problems.thats what the song is about.DAM we cant nfight everybody problem

[deeje8]

Great job R. Kelly. You took a dark page in our nation's recent history and showed the inspiring side along with all those terrible images. Wonder if Bush and Nagin have ever had to nerve to watch this video. I guess not. They wouldn't get it. But the rest of us do get it.

[hotworkagain]

i wanna cry,my heart goes out to u all

[BAMMMitsCOURTNEY]

omg i lived threw the storm it was soo scary. the roof came off my uncles house and everything. after we hade like no lights and there was 12 of us sleeping in one room cuz it was the only one that had air condition. my house got flooded and its been like 3 years and its still not fixed and we've been working on it forever. i hope we dont get one like that agani

[shortystig]

this video made me cry

[kingofspade215]

beautiful song

[jrb175]

great song.

[westlee2bmine]

OMG! That was the saddest moment in my life and I don't stay in the N.O. I still pray for the families.

[samuelk1234567889]

oh no bad language lmfao

[infamilz06]

very good son

[stollav7]

the best ever

[marthaboger]

they didnt care about us they wanted N.O. to be a white town again.

Do they not realize that not only I but thousands of others went unrescued.

My mom is 77 years old and shes diabetic.

thank god I bought extra insulin

[Gormanmod]

how do you propose to rescue people in 10 feet water? Choppers? Their in Iraq.

Don't pull the race card.

[marthaboger]

i have the rite to pull a damned race card i have no where to go i am my brother's house in houston rite now but where am i gonna go after that.

[Gormanmod]

If mother nature choses a city that randomly has more blacks in it, that does NOT justify a race card.

You're nothing special. Plenty of people nationally, even globally, are in your same shape. It's just the way life is: It sucks.

There's luck in life and then there's the crappy times. You're status in life will improve overtime none the less.

[Gormanmod]

I mean, really. Do you expect, statistically, that in a city mainly black, that there would be 50/50 problems for blacks and whites? Right now, if a fault line activated in Northern Africa, it would put New York under water.

Then what? In a city mainly white, whites would be the most to suffer. What would you say then?

There is no racism here. There is simply math only.

[res1233]

the fact you said that new york is mostly white means you have no idea what you're talking about. NY is mainly nothing, it's got groups of people from just about everywhere, so before you talk, try to get your facts straight. And i wish you the best of luck in trying to find a new home =)

[Gormanmod]

Uh, no. It's mainly Italian, Irish, and Mexican, with a pinch of Russian. The first 2 being the majority.

Of course, if you want to nitpick, then yea, you can find anyone form everywhere. But these days, that's just about every city. in America.

And BTW,I won't need to find a new home. I live on the top of a hill in a suburb. I just was saying for point sake.

According to Google's simulator of flooding, I'm fine.

[res1233]

lol new york in no way represents america, most cities are mostly white, many have few to no minorities at all, new york is a strange mix and has proportions that differ from most cities in america, it's a great city because of that. People here grow up with a unique understanding of other groups of people and how to coexist =P often it's by dissing each other out of your car's window, known as a driveby shouting =D but it works

[Gormanmod]

Oh I agree. I have no hatred of anyone.

But for the most part, the Northern cities are Diverse.

Weather you came from Italy or Ireland, doesn't matter. Whites are just as diverse as Blacks. An Egyptian is completely different then a Liberian just as an Irish is completely different from an Italian.

Their thoughts, faiths, views, etc countered that of the original Anglo.

The thing is, that people often associate by skin, but each group of whites is different, just as with blacks.

[JeremeyT27]

wow best video i almost cried and for r. Kelly to make a song for new orleans just shows that he is just an awesome person and has alot of respect for people and when i saw that bridge that was ripped apart i finally relized really how bad the storm was. I continue to pray for N.O. God Bless All of these people and u for making this. just plain awesome

[lagginald18]

omg you've said what i was wanting to say.this video brought tears to my eyes.AWESOME.

but ery saddening.

god shall be with all those who had gone thru this terrible catastrophy.

[jacksite2007]

not being horrible to anyone- but i am so glad i dont live in a place where hurricanes worse as that hit

[mezzy505]

i was ballin out cryin omg best video ever

[sashanina123]

[respectedLADY]

[kenyan114]

R .kelly big up !

[fasesay]

this song make cry it so sad

[princessgirl614]

Seems like it was yesterday. keep ya'll heads up and everything will be alright! may GOD bless ya'll!

[Tru2DaGame23]

i remember watching that whole BET S.O.S special then i went to a football game it was a friday and i was talking to my friendsthe whole time i couldnt even watch the game couldnt even enjoy it

[Lifeisforevermusic]

I remember that so clearly. It's been almost three years and I can still picture it like it was yesterday. It was a relief to get fresh ice so we could melt it for water, one bag per family. i remember getting the MREs from the troops and being so greatful, but I knew that I was lucky, I got to go to shelters and get clothes that other people had donated, I got water and food, I could walk around outside after the rain and wind was gone. i just really wanted to thank you, for making this video.

[jacksite2007]

what are mre's

[Lifeisforevermusic]

MRE's are Meals Ready to Eat. The army uses them to feed the soldiers and the army helped us out a lot.

[jacksite2007]

like cereal bars etc (things that dont have to be cooked etc)

[djsoulja08]

that song is so beautiful! it brings a tear to my eyes!

[Tru2DaGame23]

seemed like this stuff happend yesterday man

[justmeinu]

That was so nice of Kellz!

He is concerned about people.

I love you R.Kelly :)

[phxalldaway]

i'm too far away from new orleans. here in croatia there is no such things as tsunamis, hurricanes and similiar things and new orleans suffered the worst!

[akmaster1991]

da swar schon echt hammer

aber bush hat sich ehhhhhhhh nur gedacht ach mir doch egal ich sitze hir in meinen weißen haus da bin ich sicher

i hate you bush

[JUANBREEZIO]

bush = death and world domination!!....

[EsotericDesi]

One thing that makes Americans Certified Moronss is when they call everything they have "World Famous"... "Best Jazz Players On Earth"... as if someone in Banglore, Indida or Perth, Australia gives a fuck... New Orleans was called "Big Easy" by govt. not because it was a "Lay-Back" city... It was a way to distract its public from real issue, 85% poverty rate by making those poor, overweight turds feel superior about themselves.

[l7ary]

To EsotericDesi: It kills me how people say they hate America but they can't stop talking about us

Its just like being a celebraty

Your not somebody untill you have haters

[mellowjello4]

this song is the best and i would sacraficed myself to save them but its to bad it already happened...but i pray that the families that lost their homes that they would find news ones...:(
