In This World (Video)

[PotentGeorge]

you gotta get the chillz listening to this beats. FUCK #HITEK

[MsChing611]

I guess I had stated during the summer that this is a great type of rap I prefere which isn't about dancing and that is what I ment yes there are varieties that are about fun and dancing but this is about lryical content if the person who responded to me dosent get that then he needs to view a different music channel.

[Joeflowmoreno]

Hi tek definatly subliminaly took a shot at Illuminatti :)

word

LOVE DA TRACK

[armargedon10]

@Joeflowmoreno

[armargedon10]

@JcCake112

[pupils011]

I hate how people sleep on this!!!! then they go listen to wayne!!!!!

[CanYouResistClick1ng]

[rdcvgr88]

Talib Kweli is the fuckin' man. If you don't wan't to be learn about Talib Kweli and would rather listen to "aston martin music" GET DA FUCK OF THIS. Brooklyn Stand the f*uck up. If you don't know about Talib and would like to learn more, more power to ya..He's the man.

[tomstarfighter]

HOW DOES THIS NOT HAVE MORE VIEWS?!?!

[flyguygoon1]

@im saying my brother 

[chris45322345]

What's all this shit about who is best and number 1. Missing the point. Stop getting hung up on who is the best and instead just start to really question every lyricist properly and think about why Kweli is so good compared to other rappers and what the reasons for this are. What it is he hopes his lyrics will achieve.

Transpose this to every argument, not just musical ones.

[kb104621]

@jjags32mjd Weezy didnt used to be the same rapper

[AAASERGEANT]

Ok why has Justin Bieber got like 2929292929 billion views and this only has 150k??? what the hell has the world came too!!!!!!?!?!?!

[StephenGreater]

THIS IS DOPE BEYOND WHAT WORDS CAN EXPRESS!!!

[alphacuz]

"Here to Eliminate the counterfeit" i still bang this track a year on, still banging the train of thought to be honest. Fire!!!

[dubbayumdee]

This fucking song is life changing. much respect given.

[redsoxloverforever]

This is the Most Awesome Video!!! 

[FindRealHipHop]

This video cant be viewed outside the USA, I had to use an American server just to watch it, I thought the internet was open to everyone, I live in Canada, not fukin China.

[jayfrahmfer]

wow Talib kweli is that what needes to be heard

[bowmana614]

this song is SO. MUCH. BETTER. live!!

[blakdad]

This album is really tight. I really haven't stop bumping it since I got it last May.

[MsChing611]

This song ain't practice ryming it's Mind Blowing and Rare today. When the beat drops and he comes in the song it's meaningful you can't stop taking it seriously. And the Troubled drums with that Lady singing, WHAT!!!!!!!!!Real hiphop aint about dancing around and shiet. THis song left me speecjless... I gotta stop I cant even say nothing. Just Support Taleib Kwelli Please Luv Hip Hop, it aint always about Gunz and Drugs. Its about Skillz and Lyrical Tatics that Flow hard.

[bandicoot2ps1]

@MsChing611 real hip hop aint about dancing? i thought that was the point of music. peace love unity and having fun

[RichieRocksTV]

this really has under 200k views. i guess people dont listen to real hip hop...

[ReissisaG]

they make the best videos

[LeKingJohn]

Lyrics on this one are nice:

Slave to our possession, greed the devil favorite weapon

[SaludOfficial]

I just spilled some fiery soul on a Reflection Eternal track and posted it up.

[623bizz]

This joint is so fucking flame.....best song ive heard in a while...i get goosebumps from the sample....

"7 dislikes"

7 people can go fuck off and join taylor gang or sum

[oliverleif]

well people at least we can be happy that Vevo hasnt taken over the good music yet...let them have the Soulja Boy and Lil Wayne. I'll stay here where the music actually means something.

[adictiveadictive]

love talib. hi-tek is crazy 4 this shit right here!

they both get mad love on the westcoast

[djdabblin]

Man... listen to this love N passion #saggaWednesday *Reflection*

[rikrok1975]

"if skills sold, truth be told. i'd probably be, lyrically, Talib Kweli" -Jay Z. Talib is amongst the hand full of few< that truely have mastered the role of the m.c. responsible for a large portion of the genres progression. amazed by the craft perfected in every aspect. flawless creations and he makes it seem as is its effortless for him. this is the art in its purest form. drake, weezy? that aint even the same format as this. ALWAYS TRUE 2 FORM-R.I.P. J. DILLA!!!

[ExhibitS126]

Is it possible for people to listen to an artist(s) (Kweli & Tek in this case) without feeling the need to diss another (Drake, for example)??

Shut the fuck up & enjoy the damn song.

[skateboarder120]

this is soo reall holy fuck..music like this is what makes me wanna keep my itunes account etc.

[SaludOfficial]

I hate to be the guy that does this but I'm gonna do it anyway. My man really impressed going in on a Kweli track - give it a listen. /watch?v=MrNYUyf8Kx­­c

[Premodilla9]

2:59 soo true!! talib is so underrated man. lyrical genius

[NATIVEMILITARYMAJOR]

I agree with HoodStyles2 and eludoh.... This is what should be on mainstream... Everybody need to hear this shit he talk... Not all that Young Money bullshit... Alll they doing is promoting alcoholism and a bunch of other negative shit... I dont llike that about them, but they still something I listen to.. This is my shit tho, Reflection Eternal.. Yeah... Tell em Talib!

[HoodStyles2]

Q Tip, Talib Kweli, Mos Def and Common are the best out right now.

[2KILLAVILLE]

@HoodStyles2 They are all up there with the witty rhyming & lyrica skills,l capacity n content.. But Nas still to this day tops all of them.

[Phresh35]

Deep shit from the heart love this kind of music... Kind of like Common

[ng621]

one of the best hip-hop albums this year easily.

[mug04life]

ayo america hip hop aint dead when cats still dropin joints like this. big ups to talib, pceee and 1luv to all you bumpin this. HIP HOP IS ALIVE! ALWAYS HAS BEEN !

[guanjon]

The last line made me feel guilty about not being musically active lately. Love this shit. Their first album is one of the best of all time.

[XhiphopXis4life]

ALL TIME #1 MC- TALIB KWELI. THATS WHATS UP

[XhiphopXis4life]

I hadn't started listening to real hip hop until about a year ago. damnnnn i never knew how much i was missing

[XhiphopXis4life]

completely agree. we need another Black Star!

[Ferriswheeljunky]

I love Reflection Eternal, but really wish they'd make a second Black Star album with Mos Def.

[durtyEmpire]

hi tek got tunes for centuries... speechless

[1982Eagles]

Best Hip Hop Track of 2010

[1entmusic]

[1entmusic]

i respet this movement and i was thinking about switching my style but after hearing dis im all hip hop till my casket drop whad up!!!! chi-town

[Ch1l1p3pp3r]

This is True Hip Hop

[69over420]

Wouldn't mind if this went mainstream.

[DonLeoMarin]

You know hip hop is dead when a mainstream artist has a CLASSIC track like this with only 130,037 views!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Play this to your friends and I guarantee they will buy and listen to the ish on youtube.

[JayBiggz]

hi tek is a beast

[1982Eagles]

@JayBiggz Kweli is REAL too...great tandem

[rccola8282]

Talib mah nigga mane....thank God for this brotha yall. Real talk.

[MyJunior1975]

Random fun fact: The vocals on the chorus is none other than Belinda Lipscomb from Midnight Star!!!

[ghart22]

If skills sold truth be told I'd probably be Talib Kweli thats the shit!

[KPrime05]

I bet you this gets banned from BET for being "Too Intelligent".

[spnze]

Student Talib ,,,,,running tingz about now ,,,,,,,1

[1982Eagles]

Best Hip - Hop Song of the Year.........

[K2AStarVision]

[eludoh]

The People who got some sense against the fools who fuckin up LIFE!

If u like rap and don't like this u have a lot of learning to do!

[mpcc2022]

@eludoh most people who like rap don't like or know the meaning of true hip hop

[Duberrymore]

link yes link

[GlassesTinted]

This is truly music and hip hop at its finest!!!!!

[ali2i6]

Best part is 0:00-3:33!

[giobebe01]

drake aint shit, this is music people.

[oilyink618]

HELL, YEAH! REAL HIP HOP ART SHIT! FUCK DRAKE! FUCK LIL' WAYNE! FUCK GUCCI MANE! THIS IS AUTHENTIC BLACK PEOPLE MUSIC KEEPS BLACKS FROM INFERIORITY!!!

[6149522m]

@oilyink618 yo man other races listen to this type of rapp too

[MsPeaceism]

Gotta love this!!!!!

[giobebe01]

jah your right drake is a fake bitch rapper.... he could neva eva eva be up on some talib, eminem weezy type a shit. hes a shorty shit stain rapper with a good delivery.

[JJags32MJD]

@giobebe01 You cant call drake a fake bitch rapper and then later say weezy is great. They are almost the same rapper.

[ShroyAdaGod]

@JJags32MJD True that, wayne just let Drake borrow his weak flow

[KPrime05]

@JJags32MJD I know, that's why drake wrote most of the carter 3. However most wayne fans won't admit to it. I love kweli and most rappers like him but rappers like drake and such do serve a purpose in this game. If everybody rapped like the underground MCs that we love, then the game would be just as boring as it is now. There needs to be a sense of balance in the game. Without it, we wouldn't like who we like now.

[greencrow8]

@KPrime05

You know what's up.

Balanced Infinity, thanks for existing.

[LeKingJohn]

@JJags32MJD Drake doesn't rap much about being a gangster.

[MrDrummerboi182]

@JJags32MJD it's cuz drake is weezy's bitch.. just sayin, but this is wat hip hop is and was always meant to be like, thx reflection eternal.

[rayallen0]

@JJags32MJD ....drake raps about emotional real shit wayne raps about being a fake blood and booty shakin hoes. i guess if you only listen to the voice maybe. 

[6149522m]

@giobebe01 Eminem is good, but weezy isnt much of a good rapper, as JJags said...same shit as drake

[djblock215]

@htballr35 jus was thinkin it, ur exactly right

[spruce212212]

Why doesn't this video have more views by now? This is one of the greatest songs ever and they did it in the midst of all the ignorant music that's out right now. Nobody wants to hear this type of music? C'mon son! P.S. I'm from the south and happen to like a lot of southern music, but this is sick.

[Paaaaater]

I'd love to drink a beer one day with Kweli

what an inspiration!

[JAYSKILLZ777]

No half or next to nothing naked women, no making it rain, no drug references, and no fancy rides.

Just pure Finesse, Class, and real lyrics

[cancareless92]

2:45 - 2:53 is why this will not be on T.V but this Is the Best Song on earth.

[blaksignuss]

talib n' hi.tek... damn amazing music

[kinngmitch]

wtf is up with the spanish ads.... lmao

[hustletrees47]

3:33 of goose bumps

damn

[BonkersTheBear]

this shits close to immortal technique and jedi mind tricks

[blam702mi]

holy fizzzzuck

[rugidlude2]

REAL HIP HOP STAND UP!

[0194D]

@rugidlude2

[bigwhoa76]

Oh-my-phukkn-GAWD..this was absolutely the dopest thing ive heard all day..The joint "just begun" is pretty dope too..Reflection Eternal saved my life today..

[prohittas]

video tight and that beat is BANGING 

[BUCKDOWNZ]

music with a message!!!

[GrandStyles]

God-like prowess

[shelliefosho]

will never forget seeing this at audio. talib and hitek KILLED it thank you for one of the best memories!

[Ghostdog15]

nevermind, found it... 

watch?v=nsBfi0wRR0g

[Ghostdog15]

Can someone tell me / link me to what song this samples?

[Real1776Music236]

I hate to say something stupid like worlds best lyricist but.....

[thablacksnow]

Hey, can anybody tell me something 'bout this?

I heard dat Dj Hi-Tek the same deejay is as the one from the group "die antwoord" ?

Or, there was something with him and die antwoord..

Srry for the bad English, I'm Dutch.

[Eldrunko45]

@thablacksnow For seeing both live i can tell you that they are different

[MrKnowItAll1987]

but real talk...this album made me feel really good on the inside..i cant recall any hip hop album influencing me in such a positive way...and the ballad of theblack gold is that joint that makes me feel so positively influenced i could easily see myself leading a peaceful protest to my own government town halls or the white house asking that we change our american governing to one for the people..cant explain how positive this album influenced me..props kweli keep spreading the good word!

[adinakaden]

@MrKnowItAll1987 That's the truth right there. I had to restart The ballad of the Black Gold the first time I heard it b/c I was driving and wasn't REALLY listening. One of the lines caught my ear and I had to back and listen. F'ing great album.

[MrKnowItAll1987]

I have to admit...i havent had ahip hop album inspire m in such a way it send chills up my arm....this cd was ovewhelmingly positive...IDK why all these soo called "refelction eternal" fans are claiming this was so-so or not up to par with train of thought....if you ask me theres more meanigful music of substance here...hiteks production is on another level compared to then...and talibs flow and delivery are no longer competing with the beat..hes finally mastered the craft which he rides it!

[robwattz]

If Pac was here, I could already hear him saying," yes, yes, YES, where my real thugs, where they at , where they at, wheres my real thugs, where they at?"

[DecalfxVideos]

IN THISSSSSSS WORLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDDDD

[darkodasefx]

THE BEST TRACK FROM RPM!

[MrKnowItAll1987]

@darkodasefx i would have agreed until i bought the album...ballad of the black gold is by far the best...and that is by no means knocking this track..this track was one of my faves..by ballad of theblack gold was absolutely classic, revolutionary no pun intended

[darkodasefx]

@MrKnowItAll1987 My 2nd choise from this classic shit definitely!

[vvolfflovv]

Ouch! That sh*ts way to hot.  Forget Drake, I can't even think of a good MC to compare him to. This one is going right on my page.

[brassassmonkey]

i love this song and ive heard off people that changed their lives because of this song

and i think that this song is sick, dope, and one of the greatest

[tpatt513]

Phuck Illuminati, it's Brooklynati.

Another classic by RE. Respect it and check it.

[MrKnowItAll1987]

I'm JUST CURIOUS...DID ANYBODY NOTICE THAT THOUGH?? i'M JUSTCURIOUS IF SOMEBODY FELT THE SAME WAY I DID...AT @2:47 HI TEK IS THROWING UP A HAND GESTURE...DID ANYBODY THINK "WTF...WHY DID HI TEK JUST THROW THAT HAND SYMBOLISM UP???" ...THAT IS IF YOU KNOW HOW CORRUPT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY IS IN HIP HOP TODAY WITH ALL THE OCCULT SYMBOLISM AND WHATNOT...IM NOT READING INTO IT...BUT I JUST FOUND IT AWKWARD..TALIB IS STILL THE MAN THO

[akaSTEPMOM]

@MrKnowItAll1987 you do realize that over the years that hand gesture has developed multiple meanings. for one example its used in sign language, and it has become a gesture used for pretty much any situation. by posting an awkward all caps comment like what you just did you are in fact reading into it. worry about secret societies in politics and not music. although its good that people like you are aware its also super annoying to see an illuminati related comment on every music video i watch

[BKbigkeezy]

@akaSTEPMOM Amen to that. PREACH ON!!! lol. :)

[younginnice]

@MrKnowItAll1987 yea he was symbolizing/subliminally showing who the counterfeit in this world is.

[MAyTeeTheMC]

@MrKnowItAll1987 Kweli n Hi-Tek were simply saying they're eliminating the ILL ones.....in which u already know who that is. The devils in the music sign....n that hand sign HI-TEK threw up was the ILL ones symbol. Thats why KWELI had the revolutionary black power fist up......beforehand.

[StephenGreater]

@MrKnowItAll1987 If that's what stood out the most to you from this song....THEN YOUR NOT LISTENING PROPERLY!

[MrKnowItAll1987]

ver intresting how the director of the video made it a very blatant move to zoom in on hi tek appropiately throwing the baphomet symbol...theres alot of hidden sublimonal messaging in this song..it seems like your beautfiul typical talbi track...until you realize ...some things verymuch out of the talib ordinary...great deceipt if you may

[MrKnowItAll1987]

Great song greatvid.... Butwhat the hell is hi tek dropping the baphomet sign as talibs spitting " here to eliminate the counterfeit"...

[dmtformula]

@MrKnowItAll1987

He did that after Talib through up the black power fist and said " here to eliminate the counterfeit " so people realize what they mean by counterfeit

[saltruj]

Albums for Sell Outs, FAKE RECORDS!

[oconstanti]

DJ HI-TEK & TALIB KWELI

best Hip-Hop duo since Krs & Scott La Rock, Eric B & Rakim, DJ Premier & the last great Guru,

[Isaiahkh91]

this here is real hip-hop and its pretty new thanks kweli and hi-tek for droppin this tape this year when hip-hop was taking over by wack beats and wack rhymes and barely anybody has talent or flow

[OoTimberwolf42oO]

whoever directed this video did a good ass job

[brownboysur13]

what jackets is talib wearin in dis song?

[beatkidjay]

This is that raw hip hop right there. Straight MCin over a hard track, no gimmics and catchy hooks. I miss shyt like this man! Makes you think a little, instead of shaking your azz over mindless banter 24/7.

[smileycruz]

these nikkuhz need collab with joe budden on sum real shit ,,, fuckin speak tha truth off tha heart is sickness ......

[Mechmasters30]

Best video of the summer kweli off tha hook wit it.

[13soccer10]

do I hear a little dubstep influence on that wobbly bass?

this is incredible

[Jahbril30]

DRAKE CAN"T MAKE MUSIC LIKE THIS

[Atmus80]

@Jahbril30 Only Talib and Hi Tek can dude.

Talib been beastin' for over 13 yrs and still in the game.

Talib is the only artist who has been in my top 5 and has never gotten bumped out. Not even something I could ever CONSIDER.

Talib could stop making albums tomorrow and I'd still hold him as probably my #1 favorite MC.

[84Clothing]

@Jahbril30 DRAKE WON'T EVER COME CLOSE TO MAKING HIP HOP PERIOD, HE'S A EX DEGRASSI ACTOR :S

[Jahbril30]

@84Clothing LOL@Degrassi

[ktroy1000]

@Jahbril30

Re­flec­tion Eter­nal vs drake how will win

[puacuaromex24]

@ktroy1000 nigga learn to spell

[ktroy1000]

@Jahbril30 true

[Mentalwarfare78]

@Jahbril30 Ditto! This is soul touching music. I got this and I fuck this, and I drink this bullshit.

[Jahbril30]

@Mentalwarfare78 agreed my brotha

[chinewmarie]

@Jahbril30 I can't stand that irritating ass voice of his! OMG he is sooooooo annoying, he sounds like a lil' boy who is going through voice changes! ugh!

[Real1776Music236]

@Jahbril30 It does not matter what Drakes doing cause what talib is doing is master masonry

[codycdoo]

@Jahbril30 thats because drake is a joke

[KLAP215]

@Jahbril30 I know Drake is so wack!!!!

[thablacksnow]

fuck the 4 people who dislike this!

Onelove from the Netherlands!

[icetray889]

this song is fire

[Wassupwitit06]

Love it.

[gabgacha]

Official ...

[RasheemH]

This is too sick for words, and a single youtube comment nor thumbs up can do it justice.

[ThisGivesMeTheCreeps]

I really like the song, the message to work hard, that "talent's nothing without practice" verse, but I don't get all this "black power" and "white devils" ting. It's like all white men are rich and successful and all they do is exploitating black men. Trust me there' lot's of white people who live in such places and conditions they don't even contemplate an opportunity of getting a well-paid job or getting education. Rich always are smhow opposed to poor, what does race has to do with it?

[OldSkoolisForever]

Still can't decide what's my favorite track. It's between this, city playgrounds, and ballad of the black gold. Dope album, both hi tek and talib did incredible.

[gold9524]

Shout outs to the artist really using GODS gift correctly.

[Rappalot126]

RPM: One of the few albums actually worth buying this year.

Instant classic, from top to bottom.

This song in particular I can't stop playing.

[jeancarlos99]

u got to make black gold video man

[StevenMarsh93]

I think this paves the way for another Blackstar album...
