13 my friends used to make fun of this music in third grade I always said don't hate because I have soul. This is real music to me not that mess that's out now. Now days they're not even artists. They talk about drugs, sex and money. Trash.
@CHNJ101 Yeah, Like the other day i Just bought a bmw for my first car, i had this playing loud, everyone gave me looks, this one guy at the stop he was probably 22-25, hes like Whats that song man!?, haha, new age kids dont know anything :)
@tehBLAX I always told my mom if she were to buy me luxury brand new for my first car trust me she won't. But I always would say you can buy me one of these two cars S65 because she drives one, Range Rover Sport my baby I love the car she drives one. But we have a deal she won't buy one for me until I'm 18 but she'll let me drive the Range but It's not mine. Hence if I mess up it's done with.
@CHNJ101@CHNJ101 haha, buddy trust me get a job, I am 18, been working since 14 and a half, saved up over 15k, just from working + school full time, 3-4 shifts a week, in 2 years you will have money. Trust me dont spend your time on games and all that shit, Just work, get money, cars, etc, live the good life : )
@tehBLAX LOL! I do have a job and I have all my money stored savings, cd's and money market accounts. Thanks to my parents and extended family. I do work for my cousin he owns a very prosperous company and gives me high five figures a year. Then theirs my allowance from my parents which I tie up in savings, cd's and money market accounts. Also my friends and I are going to open up our third restaurant with our own money. Of course all with the supervision of our parents.
im confused on who made this song first Curtis or the Delegation cause they both have the same name and they sound pretty similar with the horns and chorus so if anyone has any info on that it would be helpful
I am listening to this song the whole day now and i can say that this is my new favourite song. A friend of mine show it to me. This is so cheering up and it puts me in such a good mood :)
I don't want to sound old or whatever, but my mom used to play this track alot when i was a kid, and i always enjoyed this sort off music, even today in some house music they often use classics like this. But in the end nothing beats the real thing, this is amazing and they don't make them like this anymore :-)
@eracollao GOOD !! this fucking mainstream music, oh baby baby baby ohhhhh last friday night ? WTF i dont know anymore what happened last friday night !? .. (sry for my bad english)
Recently saw a documentary on Curtis on PBS 2 nights ago, what a sweet sensitive creative man he was, didn't pay too much attention to his music when he was alive but I will now.
Filthy fucking pop rats , kanye is a dirty leach faggot cant come up with his own music so he steals from classics, SHAME ON THE BASTARD !!! same goes for that cunt p diddy and will smith, , blacks stealing from blacks, who knew.....
Who REALLY runs our world? search "israel Did 911 All Proof in the World" and search "ZionCrimeFactory" for proof.
Reporting on the death of supremacist Zionist leader David Wolffsohn, the September 17, 1914, edition of THE NEW YORK TIMES tells us that during his closing address at the Zionist Congress at the Hague in 1907 Wolffsohn “pleaded for greater unity among the Jews and said that eventually they must conquer the world.”
w(dot)zioncrimefactory com/jew-world-order SPREAD THE TRUTH!
People get things twisted. I don't hate on Kanye for using Curtis' music. It just shows he has good taste. It only bothers me if some unknowing youngster hears this and says, "Hey, that's Kanye's song!"
@ocarruil You are entitled to your opinion of Kanye. I'm strictly speaking in terms of how young people sometimes think music is original when it's not. As long as the originator (In this case, Curtis) gets recognized, I'm OK with it. But of course, sometimes that doesn't happen.
We're an independent label trying to make it in this game and the best way to do that is by being more known on youtube.One of the ways we stand out is we help unsigned artists get more fans by uploading their songs for a new fan base
You can change our future with one simple click.
Please thumbs up so other people can see this and check out our channel and comment with feedback if you like,also if you think we could improve.
If you like check the other artists we have over 90 vids up!
I'm convinced the record labels troll around videos and bring up their crappy new artists since they can't make much $ on the old ones anymore. It's pretty annoying and I don't pay attention anymore. If you go to a Aretha video or something, they'll be on there comparing her to whatever new artist is out....Adele or something. They're pretty relentless about it. A good rule of thumb is, don't go from this page to the troll's artist's page, they'll know and they'll keep doing it.
@nevernotunconscious I dont understand why people hate Kanye West, i think his song is a great tribute to Curtis Mayfield, I dont think rappers try to improve the music of their era but rather restore and pay homage to it. I think producers feel the same way
