  • The remix is the best. Thumbs up if you LOVE Niggas In Paris.

  • Comment removed

  • it's "if you're waiting for the end of the dynasty sign, it'll seem like forever is a mighty long time" implying that it will be forever before the Roc ends, and it'll be a long forever, such that you will think it is a "mighty long time"...it's called an entendre, something said to seem innocent but having "naughty" connotations...just sayin

  • Noooo ppl yall are sleeping on Hovs verse.... he spittin straight knowledge, using metaphors yall prolly dont understand.. he kilt this and the way he ended that verse will give goosebumps "If you watin for the end, the dynasty signed

    And what seems like forever is a mighty long time

    I'm young bitches" even kanye said in the song big brother "thought i had you on diamonds then you came and kilt it" he referring to this song, jays verse was legendary here.

  • Wow Jayz fucking killed this.

  • Classic for Ye

  • That's funny, I got james bond diamonds are forever paused in player, yet I accidently stumbled across this song :)

  • fuck u kayne. illuminati... is not COOL~! PUT UR FUCKIN DIAMONDS DOWN SHEEEPLE!

  • on that diamonds remix, i swore i spaz, then big brother came round and kicked my ass - kanye

  • Im not a business man. Im a business ... Maan

  • Kanye & Jay > Lil Wayne & Drake

  • correction: in the beginning of J's verse, at about 2:35, he says, "Pardon me," not, "Part of me."

  • Best line: I'm not a business man, I'm a business... man! Let me handle my business, damn!

  • even kanye himself said in big brother "On that diamond remix I swore I spaz then my big brother came through and kicked my ass" so dont bother saying who did better just enjoy the music

  • @catdogcirca1990s mind posting a link to this? i'd love to see that.

  • @rcmxfuk its on his graduation album....big brother kanye west

  • @rcmxfuk for some reason the link wasnt working but just search it on youtube

  • @catdogcirca1990s got it, thanks. jay z goes hard.

  • @catdogcirca1990s jay z was so shit here no matter wat anyone says he sounds so out of place and ruins it

  • @makavelithedon2009 i mean im just saying what kanye said to defend my opinion...but its all good man its good music

  • need more tracks like this!

  • let me get a thumbs up to say fuck you to all those thumb whores.

  • "I'm not a businessman, I'm a business...man!"

  • how was kanye better on this ?

  • Comment removed

  • This was like one of the first rap songs I actually remember finding on my own.

  • I'm not a buisness man Imma buisnessss, maaannnnn <3

  • i saw them on their Watch The Throne concert and I loveeeee how they did the remix. Kanye did the 1st verse of the original song then the 2nd verse he lead into this song. i was just waitin for Jay to come back out and he did. it was badass!

  • BEST EVA!!!!! KANYE 4EVER!!!!

  • Jay has the best verese it makes sense if you don't get it let me explain...he's talking about his group breaking up (law getting tighter on diamond distribument because of the "blood diamond" controvery") either way you look at his label will live forever (either way you try to put a hault to the "blood diamond" contoroversy it will never be stopped) diamonds are forever and it will be a forever want buy our human race...get it, if not eh

  • "People lined up to see the Titanic sinking Instead we rose up from the ash like a phoenix" jay-z forecasted Roc-A-Fella failing then this rebirth seems to be embodied by Jay’s new label, Roc Nation, while Kanye has “Runaway” with the phoenix theme

  • Jay's lyrics could just apply to black people in general. Kanye did say that we die from the drug trade over here. Jay's verses are outstanding in this song. I like when he says people lined up to see the Titantic sinking, but instead we rose from the ash like a Phoenix. Music don't always have to be so literal.

  • Songs from James Bond :P

  • WTF has Jay Z's lyrics got to do with blood diamonds!!! He's just boasting about himself and selling crack.......FOOL!! Should of put Nas on there for some common sense lyrics to go with Kanye's.

  • @NEROROYAL smh you are soo ignorant. Smh

  • Air Yeezy 2

  • i think i learned more about the world in this song that i have in my 4 years of highschool

  • 48 people have no swag

  • This shit is crazy H.O.V and Kanye went in.

  • Jay Kill It.

    

  • thumbs up if you're watching this

  • jigga man killls this

  • the kanye part was meaningful and he gone hard, the jayz part, he was just bragging about him self but he brung out the beat, i'll give him that.

  • Comment removed

  • if kanye talk more about the people who get killed just for someone rich ass mother fucker, put some diamonds in hands, this song would be alot better, this without Jay-Z raping ins this one

  • Buy your diamonds from Canada. We don't kill for them:)

  • Jigga is mean yoooo

  • ur gonna burn in hell illuminati punk, JESUS will whoop ur ass

  • @mohsen8sabahi whos that?

  • peace be unto Sierra Leone.no more war over diamond

  • this shit is dopeeeee

  • This song gives me that feeling... that I can't describe haha

  • "It's in a black person's soul to rock that gold

    Spend ya whole life tryna get that ice" \

    So true all the way back to The Anicent Egyptians

  • Kanye was better than Jay on this to me he was actually talking about some real shit

  • @joshd9124 dimonds and shit nigga

  • @joshd9124 its a collaboration not a competition

  • @joshd9124 No i had to get off the boat to walk on water.(GOD M.C)

  • Comment removed

  • @joshd9124 i disagree even tho ye WAS spittin real shit..jay flow was impeccable...gotta think at the time this happened people wasnt hearin shit from jay.but good point

    

  • @joshd9124 Yeah his concept was better than Jay, but Jay was talking about the Roc breakup... his lyrics was better though.

  • @joshd9124 Jay was talking about real life issues. Read the lyrics :P

  • @Byro9999 True!

  • @joshd9124 Lupe's remix was out first before this who actually talked about Conflict Diamonds.

  • @joshd9124 Jay probably wrote kanyes verse.

  • @joshd9124

    Honestly, Kanye out performed Jay on a number of tracks

  • Im not a business man......Im a BUSINESS, man!!!!-- Jay- Z killed it when he said that

  • "Had to get off the boat, to walk on water" damn

  • toot loo gay boy!!!

  • SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC!

    ╭∩╮(︶︿︶)╭∩

  • @TeamColeWorld He means he doesn't work in a business (as a businessman), instead he IS the business

  • Shirley sounds great lol, cool to use an old Bond song as a background

  • This is the Jay Z and Kanye I miss. Watch the throne was wack!!!

  • @kylefucksalot lol ur crazy 

  • @kylefucksalot Illest Motherfocker Alive and Why i love you are great!!

  • @kylefucksalot LOL" whack", sure it wasnt the best from neither of them, but it was still pretty ill and had its moments.

  • wtf how can people say jay murdered kanye? just like never let me down kanye came with some deep meaningful lyrics and jay came with his usual look at me all my monies bullshit. kanye killed it fuck the haters

  • @sekky123 Listen to the song Big Brother on the album Graduation.. Kanye says himself that Jay-Z kills him in this song..

    I mean i dont think so but thats what Kanye says..

  • @ZBM3090 so what just because kanye said it doesnt mean you all have to follow like sheep, Nas said em killed jay on that renegade song, im a huge nas fan and think jay did alright in that song.

  • thumbs up if you watching this in 2011

  • @MrSanojonas I'm actually watching this in 1952 while I'm stationed in Korea, fighting so you don't have to speak charlie when you're born.

  • @MrSanojonas THUMBS UP IF YOU'RE STILL GONNA WATCH THIS IN 2012

  • Memphis Bleek must feel like a 12 year old who can't wipe his own butt. Good thing Jay-Z let's him sit on his lap.

  • Jay just murdered Kanye on his own song

  • @rickypang23 They both went hard. Kill yourself for comparing both. They're both Lyrical & Musical genius's and greats. Smfh. Get outta' here.

  • "On that "Diamonds" remix, I swore I spazzed

    Then my Big Brother came through and kicked my ass ♥"

  • gtfo rocafella ass lickers 

  • Yes. I'm very happy that 88 people have a basic grasp of the english language. Keep pushing boundaries out there kids,

  • BEST SONG ON LATE REG! LEGIT! FO' REAL! FUCK THE OTHER ALBUMS!

  • ughhh illuminati fucked with these guys so hard. this song is pearl tho nonetheless

  • im not a businessman imma business MAN!!!

  • dis song iz old but i still like it

  • "People lined up to see the Titanic sinking instead we rose from the ash like a phoenix". <<<Black people

  • 1st verse of Kanye is one of the most deepest verses I ever heard in hip hop, period !

  • It's a pretty powerful song. You just have o listen to what he is rely saying.

  • Kayne didn't let 46 people finish.

  • Im Not A BusinessMan, Im A Business..... Man!

  • jay and kanye together is genius and a gift to hip hop!

  • the nick-name is mine I'll take blame for that.. the pressures on, but guess who ain't gon crack? haha.. pardon me.. I had to laugh at that!

  • "This track the Indian Dance to bring our reign back."

  • Brazil in F.I.F.A. blood diamonds are conflict.. pay 4 the blood.. grandma issues.. same with me..

  • "On that diamonds remix i thought i spazzed, then my big brother came through and whopped my ass"- Kanye West

  • @jelanimadman Dammit! I was gonna post that verse!

  • @jelanimadman Jay Z killed kanye here, eix

  • What the hell does, Jay-Z's verse have to do with the children suffering in sierra leone, man FUCK jay-z

  • @nycczz23 The whole fucking Remix is about the Rocafella dynasty falling. Around this time Dame and Jay split, Kanyes saying diamonds are forever aka Also saying the Roc( their label)is forever. The remix to this song isnt just about Sierra.

  • good mornin' vietnam

  • holy balls every line by kanye in this song goes so hard

  • Finally I wanted to add, African-Americans possess just as many rights as any other individuals of different ethicities, religions and sexual orientation. African-Americans can achieve anything - the President of the United States is black/African-American. As for reperations, hundreds of countries around the world have at one point possessed slaves. So call our leaders "criminals" - while we protect what you take for granted.

  • @JesusCristo2002 Sounds like your from the nation of yahweh

  • @JesusCristo2002 and btw, nobody spoke about affrican rights lol what the fuck are you thinking?

    jewish people got all rights in austria and germany today. but that doesnt count for reperations.. are you crazy?

    rights are rights, reperations are reperations.

    thats like saying giving black people their rights after 400 years of slavery is all the reperations black people should get.

  • @7BillionColours - You're right. For the next four centuries we should give African-Americans free money. That would be "proper" reparations for the 400 years of slavery. You're wasting my fucking time.

  • Hence your point on Adolf Hitler and WWII, but what makes Franklin D. Roosevelt an exception? That he stopped a nationalist-extremist like Hitler when he was big enough to pose a threat? Our job (and the job of the free world - ALL democratic countries) is to stop extremists regardless of where they come from that oppressively infringe on our way of life - before they're leaders are as big as Adolf Hitler.

  • @7BillionColours @JesusCristo2002 find a room kids

  • @ButterChicken21 aw relax its comments.. i like kanye..

    i wanna convince everybody that america must pay reperations..

    even a kanadian who plays LoL like myself

  • Kanye is forever

  • Jay-Z has great lyrics on his verse."How could you falter, when you're the Rock Of Gibraltar? I'm not a businessman, I'm a business, man. Let me handle my business, damn."

  • Jay-z and Kayne west are so gifted, it's amazingxxx

  • This song says about fight for diamons, in Sierra Leone, it's horrible. If soebody agree, thumbs up!

  • the pressure's on but guess who ain't gon crack...pardon me I had to laugh at that lmao!!!

  • this is nothing to me, difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week...gotdamn that was sick!

  • Thumbs up if you understand what Jay - Z means by " I'm a not a business man, I'm a business, man."

  • @VaderGriffin is it possible to not understand that line?

  • @VaderGriffin he is saying that he is not a business man who does business with other people, but that he himself is a business

  • @VaderGriffin

    Care to explain :)

  • @VaderGriffin ur a fucking idiot

  • @VaderGriffin I got that the very first time I heard it.Its kinda like that verse in that song where he says "I'm a franchise like the Houston Rockets".

  • @VaderGriffin no doubt !!!!!!!!!!

  • @VaderGriffin i mean, it's not really a hard line to understand..

  • @VaderGriffin he's saying he's not a business man. he is a business.... mann. like he just is money. like he dont gotta do business he is the business...

  • @VaderGriffin he means that he is the buisiness

  • @VaderGriffin you just made 156 people feel really cleaver.

  • This beat gives me goosebumps. Say whatever you want about Kanye West - as a person. But there's one thing you can't deny, he's a musical genius.

  • @JesusCristo2002 hes a genius when it comes to making beats and sampling and mixing, lyrically hes an idiot most of the time though =( not hatin i luv dude just bein honest

  • @JesusCristo2002 yes and before you say shit about the person you may wanna consider that you never shook his hand, or talked to him even for 5 minutes.. we only know the art / artistic person on tv ..

  • @7BillionColours - I know the man's made some remarkably foolish decisions that have sparked controversy, such as the Taylor Swift incident at the MTV VMAs, and called President Bush a racist. But you're right I don't know the person, I never shook his hand and even never talked to him for even five minutes. But, I do know he's made some stupid decisions from what I along with many others percieve.

  • @JesusCristo2002 "..but you do know.." thats such an american thing, its not about knowing that.. really the big point is, this part of it all is none of your buisness. like none of your buisness at all. alot of times in usa media i hear them talk about all sorts of personal facts about people but they never consider that its none of their buisness. its nosy. also the whole earth knows george bush ordered mass murder so "racist" would be a compliment.

  • @7BillionColours - When West made those decisions on public television he made it everyone's business. He's a public figure, and like any public figure he needs to self-conscious (as we all do) when it comes to making decisions. But I get the impression you're the kind of individual who would compare George W. Bush to philosophical and ideological extremist like fascist and communist dictators like Adolf Hitler, Fidel Castro or Joesph Stalin - and have something against Americans.

  • @JesusCristo2002 dont hate usa but i know stuff about your country.thats unique about america. many foreigners know more about american politics as the americans themselves. and everybody knows bush is a criminal. in a few other countrys that might not be clear.when a country goes to war as much as america, the school system has to be very poor first, because you cant get a well educated population to accept that much war. its all very clear from the outside.

  • @JesusCristo2002 also alot of people apparently "make their personal life" your buisness.. in reality its just nosy.

    the bible calls this out as a bad thing to do, aswell as the quran and tora. you should not even speak bad about someone who is not present. definetly not about a freakin musician. with politicians its a different story.

  • @7BillionColours - Although our educational system is in desperate need of reform (and we're still unfortunately using outdated and old methods of teaching that are no longer effective and resonate with students), don't undermine the intelligence we possess. In calling George W. Bush a "criminal", you may as well refer to any war-time President a "criminal", like Abraham Lincoln, Franklin D. Roosevelt or George H.W. Bush.

  • @7BillionColours - We were attacked on 9/11, and I'm sure the leaders of your country would respond as quickly and efficiently as George W. did. But what's remarkable is that you pass judgement on the former President no differently than another would on Kanye West's incident at the VMAs. Again, when you're a public figure, regardless of your profession, you inherit a lifestyle where you're bound to be in the spotlight.

  • @JesusCristo2002 well i agree on 1 thing, our leaders are as bad as yours.im talking bad about a man who sent a country to war. a politician, we accepted democracy as our system so we have to talk honestly about politicians.i dont give a fuck what anyone would think about the vma´s. but we will never meet eye to eye, since i know if america would pay black people what their ancestors deserved for their work, they would own your whole country. 400 years of slavery,add it up

  • @JesusCristo2002 oh i just saw your other post. yes i think all war presidents of america are criminals, with the exception of the ones who stopped hitler (i am from austria so i rly thank usa for that one).

    i think stopping hitler was the only righteous war america ever fought. and you know we from austria pay reperations to the jews, i would be ashamed if we didnt. if you value an affrican live as much as a jewish live, i wonder how come no white people stand up for reperations in america?

  • @JesusCristo2002 finally just wanna add, i dont think the american level of inteligence is below avrage, but i am convinced your schoolsystem makes you accept all these wars. it is crazy to soo many people, many americans included.. some of my greatest idols are american, like george carlin

    i like people who wanna practice peace, not the ones who preach peace while supporting different types of murder.

  • @7BillionColours - What you fail to comprehend, entirely, is that there are forces out there that oppose both our philosophical ideologies and are willing to resort to violence to oppress our ideas and ways of life to enforce their own. The Taliban and Al-Qaeda are projections of this extremism. If it wasn't for countries that made an effort to stop ideological extremism - you and I wouldn't have access to Youtube and would not be typing these comments as of now.

  • @JesusCristo2002 u ignore my main point so i ask you again.

    if you value an affrican live as much as a jewish live, i wonder how come no white people stand up for reperations in america? or am i wrong and you do stand up for reperations ?

    if austria would stop paying reperations in 2011 it would be terrible, if a politician suggests this he will lose his job.. america hasnt even started paying black people ... you "help" in other countrys but dont help your own..

  • @7BillionColours regarding your comment on american intelligence and american school system.

    Even if the average american is of average intelligence, what does that really mean? It's ridiculously easy to manipulate and deceive people of average intelligence. The school system has nothing to do with why Americans accept wars. If anything, it's the media across pretty much all medium that is responsible for creating a culture based on instant gratification and separation from reality.

  • @JesusCristo2002 well said pal

  • @JesusCristo2002 well said pal

  • @JesusCristo2002 says the guy who named himself jesus christ

    

  • @luttrell94 - It's just a Youtube name, I don't think anyone in the right mind, would seriously call themselves Jesus Christ. There's no need to be a hard on about it.

  • im not a BUISNESSMAN im a BUISNESS MAN lol str8 wrecked it

  • @MrThemarcusman fuck you moron

  • @dsjj251 sorry im not gay so ask Kanye to fuck you and i will bet he will say hell yes.

  • @MrThemarcusman wow, i didnt know people as stupid as you knew how to use the internet.

  • @dsjj251 im sorry that i have a different music opinion than you because its "such a big deal" to you. So you can blow it out your ass bitch.

  • @MrThemarcusman You are a stupid bitch, You have a different musical view of me, yet your stupid ass took the time to look up a kanye video ?

    either you are lying and just want to start an argument, or you have a psychological where you literally love what you claim to hate. dont play yourself stupid bitch.

  • @dsjj251 I still have a different music view but this was the first Kanye West video ive seen and it sucked.

  • @MrThemarcusman this isnt a video you dumbass, it is a song copy and pasted to a picture, so technically it is a 1 slide slide show.

    do you mean you dont like the song, and obviously if you called him a gayfish, you ignorant ass already had a problem with him

  • @dsjj251 I will tell you right now go watch south park and youll understand that this was just a joke. i dont really give a shit about kanye west. and it doesnt matter if its a slide show or video.and if you really care about his songs that much why do you comment about a song that isnt legally his.

  • @MrThemarcusman all jokes arent funny, and yes i know about the southpark thing which is why i responded to your ignorant ass.

    how is this song not legally his, please try to explain. You cant, but try.

  • @dsjj251 As you said it is a song copy that isnt the same as the actual song so by law this is owned by the person who created it and that was not kanye west.

  • @MrThemarcusman LMFAO ROTF, no, Kanye still owns the song you. the person who created this does not have the rights to it, they are technically using it illegally.

  • @dsjj251 he doesnt own the song if someone else changes parts of it.

  • @MrThemarcusman actually, yes Kanye would still own the song, changing part of the song is called sampling, and you are still charged a fee for it.
