R. Kelly - The Star-Spangled Banner (Live)

[ShakeraMonique]

them cornrows ¬___¬

[Hofffan87]

lol He turned the Star Spangled Banner into What's Going On. This is great and hilarious.

[SuperhumanChichi]

At least he didn't forget the lyrics. Or fall on ice. Really, his performance wasn't THAT bad.

[efil4own1]

@SuperhumanChichi Now THAT would have been entertainment.

[mickeymouse12678]

Well that was...erm...interesting.

[Alex4u]

what a mess......

[CheaneRmaN]

Without the music and the ridiculous crap he pulled...if he sung it as it was meant to be sung, he could have done a pretty good job.

[kburns2406]

Interesting choice of how to sing our national anthem..

[iSK8ALOTpureamazing]

idc what everyone says i'm singing this for the talent show

[kitteyandkat]

1:42, the old guy in the background.

[TonyDucats]

hell at least he got the words right

[MannarinoJoey]

Let's step to the national anthem y'all.....

[MannarinoJoey]

This is meant to be sung acapella!!

[chief2e1]

Complete disgrace!!!!!!!!!

[o0Mila0o]

just so you know though.. every race has niggers .. it's a pointed fact that nigger means a "miserely, stingy, or hateful" person (in the dictionary it's 'niggard'..as in niggardly) but i'm sure you probably would've commented on anybody (race regardless) doing something that ignorant to the anthem right..? *hopeful that the world is growing past skin color as a reason to judge someone : )*

[oldblackcat123]

nigga

[ostaterules1012]

im not gonna lie, i think that was the worst version of the national anthem ive heard in my life

[kdixon7783B]

Happy Halloween Bitches!

[Tub87]

For someone who doesn't give a fuck you sure reply alot sugar bear.I'll say the same thing again.Don't say racial things then when soemone say it back,start bitching.You're the hypocrite you calling me out on the same thing you did.lol.idiot.

[Tub87]

I didn't start the stereotyping or racial slurs.Don't dish it out if you cant take it yourself.

[Tub87]

white as can be you are.

[reasoningwitchpower]

ok, well... i liked it..

[Tub87]

yeah and typical white behavior to strangle a soon to be wed college student for no reason then stuff her body in a lab closet, and typical white behavior to kidnap a 13 year old girl get her pregnant twice and make her sleep in a shack for 18 years in his back yard with the 2 kids, and typical white person to lie and say his child is in a helium filled balloon for publicity.

[WinFailure]

Common sense tells me he is trying to make it entertaining because otherwise why dont they have just a school choir since the song for free? This wasnt great by far, but why some of you are up your asses about it is beyond me. It reminds me of the media.. Oh my goodness! The first lady is wearing shorts! Its a disgrace to our country! Its the end of the world!... people like to cry about the most ridiculous things in this country.

People are smiling and clapping their hands.. yeah, so wrong..

[kdixon7783B]

I guess you're not aware of this but what he is singing is the National Anthem not some negro spiritual. Do you need me to tell you what is supposed to happen when that song is sung?

[Rico9XXX]

oh i see they letting child molesters sing.. i hate this disgusting sexual predator

[JTrak86]

so glad we will never see this garbage in the UFC, boxing is fail.

[kdixon7783B]

Why the hell is he telling people to clap their hands?

[a420guitarsmoker]

give me a thumbs up if this the best comment ever and a thumbs down if your my bitch

[BIack0ut]

if i reply to you, does that make u my bitch? dumbass lol.

[Corpucle]

typical racist idiot behavior

[titanbo11]

how bout someone in the ring put their damn hand over their heart instead of doing the two step

[nezj89]

im digging this, ugh ugh ugh wooo you get that shit RK

[felip77]

I was there click oon felip77 to see a different version of this

[MrFreezeIceCreamShow]

Hey everybody. Ever thought of starting your own business?

How about an Ice Cream Truck business. Well did you know

that you could earn a years salary in just six months. This is

one of the best kept secrets that I'm about to share with all

of you. If interested or just curious than check out my video.

[itzm3ka]

Obama would have no problems clapping his hands during the star spangled banner. He would rather do anything but put his hand on his heart.

[solbadboz]

damn, this nigger is good.

[mcintosh182]

He pissed all over that performance

[LawAbidingHipster]

so i dont see whats your problem

[reddupo]

I like the way this sounds.

But I do think it should have been released on an album or something, not performed live.

What these performances represent is disgraced by his spin.

If the country were not full of dumb, complacent sheep, he'd be shot. It's not necessarily a bad thing that the world is changing (as evidenced by this SSB remix).

[diverkev]

I think he did a good job. I have never heard it suing like that. This is a hard song to sing. I think they should

make God Bless America our national anthem The

one that sang this was Whtney Houston 1992

[IamJustinM]

Damn that shit was hot! But where is the home of the bray?

[reddupo]

You don't really think the lyric is "bray", do you? That's a typo, right?

[gravityhammer25]

awesome

[vivera243]

you can sing or perform the star spangled banner. no one told us you couldnt. so fuck everyone that says this shouldnt be done.

[phillyrocker1]

y couldnt he sing it the traditional way and when he says clap ur hands right in the middle i just wanna slap him across his face

[o0Mila0o]

Rofl omg you sound like my mum *laughing at the memory*; when I was younger she used to go like "I oughta slap you cross the face!" Usually when one of us had done somethin super stupid :D rofl.. course the most effective application when an adult does something ignorant is a slap across the back of the head Lol

[stephaniewang98]

i no it is disrespectful to our anthem but it was still really cool

[madenamerica58]

I would bet that all the post that say that this was a good singung of Our National Anthem are from young people, Because you lost all respect for what the Anthem means. Dancing, Raping and we can hardly find anyone that knows the words by heart. This Great Country is being murdered.

[polandski18]

this is why rappers shouldnt do the national anthem!!!!!

[o0Mila0o]

did you not like it because of how it sounded or just because it was the national anthem changed. . .? *blinks curiously*

[polandski18]

because he changed like he was performing it not singing it!!! last time i checked there was no clap your hands in the national anthem nor should there be!!! you sing it not perform it!!!!

[o0Mila0o]

Ohhh... yea you raise a good point... you're supposed to sing it with pride.. not turn it into a stage song just because of what it is.. it's the national anthem.. not the party song. When you look at it like that you're right.. somebody should've pulled his coattails on that one before that performance.. because i'm sure he practiced it before he got out there and did it.

[keneke45]

how was this voted one of the worst ones?

I find it pretty cool

[aprilLF]

LOL look at the guy in the background at 1:39

you can see he's been traumatized

[roonalwazlib]

Wow!  That was terrible!

[JBloverforever94]

He is really good

what r u saying!

[monkayheyho]

It's fucking horrible....HE destroyed it

[Bnsashbl]

Okay...I got to this because it was voted as one of the worst renditions of the National Anthem...I'm sorry..this is HOT!!!!!!

[o0Mila0o]

yes it was very nice, but I think you'd have to like r n' b to enjoy this version.. and you'd also have to not hate R Kelly; Keep in mind this was done in the midst of that child porno scandal.. so lets just face it.. alot of people are hating because of all that mess rather than cus of this song itself.. that's the unspoken part.. people are made because of what he's been into so alot are gonna just hate anything he does.. but I do love this version.. I think it sounds pretty musically :o)
