[ruckus37]

this dude is like an example in soo many ways, yellowman has and will always be a part of my life, from my 1980 days as a todler not knowing his problems, but just digging his music to today understanding some of the things he must have gone through, dude rocks in so many ways, the biggest respect.

You no yellow can ride the rythm so smooth,my mum met him in the 80,s and she say the man had such a presence it was like being around a fire on a cold night a got big luv for the man,there,ll neva be a nother like yellow.

[ToJ01978]

Look everybody, I am a white guy from Canada and even I can't stop listening to this. This man has more flow than any rapper I have ever heard in my life and speaks more truth than any polician. No wonder you call him a king. Off to smoke a joint with my missus. Cheers.

[ruslanapas]

@ToJ01978 same here , you took the words out of my mouth!!

[FASRobden]

The King of dancehall. Respect King Yellow. Jah! Rastafari!

[naturallyme14]

This is why he'll always be the true king of dancehall, no matter how many people try to come and claim the crown.

[alfonzodivito23]

[fortgate]

@Henry12350, The songs here are medleys of his songs with a bit of freestyling that is common with live performances by the Great yellowman.

[fortgate]

[mimmosuri]

[SandokanIntl]

yellowman chatting continually without any break.....wow! thats amazing everytime I see this again :-)

[rockycnme]

God Bless Yellowman. 

[jacksonwescott]

This was so ground breaking. At about :40 when he says "shut your fucking mouth" you can hear the audience start to freak out amongst themselves :P

[FeloniousDrunk]

My favorite part is when he incorporates "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands" and that other Gospel song at the end. Does anyone know what it's actually called? In any case, Yellowman is a genius.

[GRANMORR]

@FeloniousDrunk something in my heart and the spiritual song, amen



[CreoleWun]

DEM GIRL DEM A RUSH ME!! NO BOTHA LOVE ME FI MI DJ MONEY!!! ME NAH LOVE NOBODYYYYYYY!!!!!

[basimpsn]

0:0 from 9:26 start to finnish non stop DJ.

[StephHuegi]

This video made me appreciate Yellowman ^_^

[StephHuegi]

I wish he'd say "mr sensi" at 5:44

[jakethetoke]

@StephHuegi urm.. he does

[StephHuegi]

@jakethetoke I'm pretty sure he says "Mr. Sexy" because it's one of his nicknames. Also if you listen to it, you'll hear it. A shame really.

[EvilPrince69]

This is a riveting performance as all Yellowman's are. Why don't more people watch this amazing piece of musical history? Because they're jerking themselves to NickelDick and Taylor Stwat.

king of dancehall wish u to stay healthy

[azar7834]

@bossnigga123 Yellowman is very strong. He has cancer but he is still strong and healthy. He is the real king of dancehall along with Eek-A-Mouse. These two are the best dancehall DJ's ever!! Nobody can't mess with Yellowman. Nobody. Not even Beenieman can beat Yellowman.

[PantheraAtrox]

Its funny how Bennie Man is the king of dancehall now.........Only reason that occurred is because Yellowman dont really record no more he tried to take the title away from yellowman when he was young but failed why??? cuz Yellowman is the best DeeJay in reggae ever tuff lyrics thats y Bennie Man is called by his name but its KING Yellowman who really is the king
