{MV} KIM HILL the daughter - SUNSHINE

[dellculookin]

The first time I ever saw this video was on BET back in '02 , on a show called "Out The Box". That show would display videos of artists (indie & mainstream) in all genres from Rock to Nu soul and ever since that day I have been hooked on Kimmy ever since.

[CthulhuDawnful]

what happen between Kim and Black Eyed Peas? What made them split? Been asking myself that question for along time now.

[TymesRhymes]

@CthulhuDawnful BEP wanted to go mainstream.

[mikemillion2000]

All I can say is, I love Kim Hill. She sings true to her art and what she is, a Black Woman. The industry can say all they want about how she was not 'black enough' (ha, that's a joke), and that mainstream is what sells, so be it. I'm a black man, and I don't care how much a person that is not of color wears baggy jeans or speaks broken english/ebonics, or tries to pimp when he/she walks, he/she CANNOT be Blacker than me!!!! It's totally IMPOSSIBLE!

[dsruptad]

TIGHT! 

[JohnnyTrotz]

graet voice. totally diggin this.

[GreatBlue6]

well i dnt think ppl should hate on songs like where is the love did you know it has its own webpage its gud message got to many people and on there 2nd album wit fergie they had a song with the king of funk JAMES BROWN who was a big fan they also worked wit Michael Jackson BONO and sting they can do all types of music now but i dnt understand why there lyrics are so dumb and why they created my humps

[tbailey2185]

@samperio97

No matter how many albums they sell, they are still a shitty, cheesy pop group. They are just lucky that there are a lot of people in this world with shitty taste in music.

[goddessalert]

this woman has true talent. anyone have surrender to her sunshine? can't get a copy anywhere

[gigantor21]

Me either. I've been looking for that one for a while now.

[poitier111]

I see where she was coming from.The stuff she was doing with the Peas before they switched, had substance. This pop stuff their doing is mindless but very lucritive.

[Naturigurl]

But in all that is just a possibility in itself as well Gonna still bang Kims sounds in my jeep. I was (probably still) signed to an indie record company and they did nothing for me. I cut all ties with them and the producer I was working with. I felt hurt and used but I learned a very valuable lesson. If you want instant gratification sign with the biggies and be in debt (unless you know somebody and they allow you to be you) Or just release your own with your own funds and be spiritually free

[Naturigurl]

When making music it comes down to what sells the most and that's mainstream. When your trying to get that dolla dolla bill yo you go where the money is. The BEP can show their true selves through self released albums to stay tru still. I loved who they were before but there was a good chance that they might have been dropped from their label if they didn't do what they had to. Kimmy was good to stay true to herself but if she moved in the other direction her pockets would be fatter right now.

[tbailey2185]

Black eyed peas was a real hip group when this woman was with them. They could have been like the fugees if they stuck with their original sound. Now they are just a cheesy pop group.

[cbspring79]

This my little cuz from new york. I love you Kimmy Kim.

CB

[slim6swimmerchik]

i don't really like her, i just saw that she was b4 fergie in the black eyed peas so i wanted to see how good she was...fergie=WAAAAY better

[BrianPsychicBabystar]

She is too real for you.

[slim6swimmerchik]

OR people have different opinions in music. and u have bad taste in music...but thats just MY opinion. fergie's too good for u

[BrianPsychicBabystar]

I actually don't have a problem with Fergie.  Never said I did.

[trueblkman]

My girl is no joke.. Kim Hill!!! I love to see people hate on her.. You not isht till you got a hater!!! You go girl~~

[Eyeslam]

Kimmy Kim y'all! One of my favorite singers.

[Fiyahstar]

I've met Kim Hill as well and this woman is really down to earth and she is beautiful. Kill Hill actually left the BEP because she saw the direction they were going in. Respect to this sista for refusing to go pop.

[lilcenzo]

there's nothing wrong doing pop you know.

[BrianPsychicBabystar]

When a music company tells you what music to make, what image to portray, and you are under a legally binding contract that doesn't allow you to flourish as a human being, I question if it is really worth it. I mean, really...

[lilcenzo]

there still isn't anything wrong with pop music in the sense of the actual music produced!!!!!!

[BrianPsychicBabystar]

It's not a question of right or wrong. Right and wrong can be perceived differently due to the observer. What I'm saying is that either way, there are sacrifices made. To live true to your art and do it straight from the heart, you may have to sacrifice fame and fortune because you become a slave to the game by signing contracts and having to keep up with the "Jones" (or the "Combes" as P. Diddy said). But in fame and fortune, you sacrifice artistic freedom and have to be a pop slave 24/7.

[lilcenzo]

so you should of just stated your beef is with the industry in the beginning.

[BrianPsychicBabystar]

Yes, I should have, thanks. My beef is mainly with the limitations of the industry from trying to keep up with the trends and formulas that eventually die out. Right now, the industry is suffering because many people are just downloading albums instead of buying them. This is the perfect time for artists to sell their own music instead of signing record deals because you can market worldwide via the net and the streets while not having to be a slave to a record company and tabloid magazines.

[hjamespatterson]

I had the pleasure of seeing Him Hill perform a few times and even met her out and about in LA a couple of times. She is a BEAUTIFUL person both inside and out and is a TRUE artist unlike the BEP's if she was willing to shake her tits at everybody like Fergie. Check out her track "The Real Hip Hop" from the Suga Hill album. Can't wait for the next disc..Pharoah's Daughter, does anyone know if it's available anywhere yet?

[olicarn]

shes got some real soul music

[TymesRhymes]

She is so beautiful. Has that natural beauty to her. And the music is so inspiring.

[ooberla]

beautiful. I really like this. She's a much better singer than that Fergie bint.

[alfjoey1234]

you've got class, girl. lots of it!!! i love your song!!!

[nelvin24]

she has great style.i love her. too bad she couldnt get past the first album.they said she aint balck enough??? who arethey kidding?

[rod1224]

im a huge fan of Kim Hill also, i too was a BEP fan back in the day. When they were performing in Pomona and SoCal

[showbizzner2020]

I hope we can work together one day

[gregsterarline]

Kim, this was my joint back in 2000-2001, senior year of h/s. Brings back memories of NEXT-that show on BET.

God bless you-Greg

[aleon3000]

I finally found her. And it was random as hell. I've always wondered what her name was, I feel kinds lsme though, Whatever. Why did you leave BEP? I know why but I enjoyed them so much more before. **Sigh** Oh well, now I can get the cd.

[victornewman06]

How can Justin Timberlake be considered an "Urban" artist, but Kim Hill isn't "black" enough according to the major labels? I honestly don't understand that. She left BEP because she knew that they were selling out, enter Fergie's garbage butt and there you have it. I hope this sista gets her just due.

[akeyla23]

I love Kim Hill,,,,She is the best hands down.....Sugar Hill is in my car right now..It bangs....Anymore videos on Kim?? (please)

[baggetup]

Kim Hill is the dopest singer you've never heard of. It's amazing when you see artist like this who haven't truly blown up.

[MadisonInc]

WOW Kim I`m happy I found your video, I will have to tell Pru.
