Jay Electronica "A Million In The Morning" (Inspired by the original motion picture)

[HiItsMercado]

After a sleepless night the first thing I do is listen to this song.

[realmuzically]

THE UNGROUND IS HOT AN KASUWELL IS THE BEST OF IT !!!

[MrCommenterguy]

Love the video

[TheThirdWing94]

Hoooly shit. I was bangin this song last summer. I was in a bad way. lol. Real fitting with this track. I was poppin Vic's like Flinstone vitamins, stayin up all night. I was actually gonna try and go for 5 days just because of the concept of this Movie.

[GottHatHumor]

trippy Track & trippy Clip

[marcus3131]

he looks like Josef Fritzel !

[daszigan]

@marcus3131 Hell yeah

[jjld90]

Rebel 8 3:07

[RaminMe2]

does anyone know where the voice saying ''it's as though his normal dreaming pattern began to show itself'' comes from?

[SeanChiruchi]

@RaminMe2 Its probably from the movie

[haydenthebrown]

This film says it's about a guy who goes 5 days without sleep, but within this clip alone you see him fall asleep like 3 times!?! Do they mean that he just didn't go to bed for 5 days?

[RaminMe2]

@haydenthebrown he did some powernaps

[htmlst]

@haydenthebrown No, other 8 contestants challenged for longest movie watching record and the man interviewed them. record breakers were given million or ten thousand dollars i cannot exactly recall the number. even though he took some naps, I think he showed some incredible patience. because he kept walking around the block, interviewing people around and talking to the camera for 5 days.

[JiMMyJaM08061991]

please od somebody tell me his full body of work. i downloaded a torrent with an ep and a mixtape called act 2 but wiki said he aint released act 2 yet. i need to know which is real and which is fke.

[senoreo]

@JiMMyJaM08061991 He is a legend and a myth bro.... No one knows what the fuck is going on.

[thisdayjustbelongedt]

i get goosebumps this song is so good

[benthebarbarian]

Teacher held me down while the jackals ate my brain out..Classic line feel like that in college every damn day..........

[youngfase5]

@benthebarbarian tru story i can relate

[StimpsonJCatt]

Smdh. 3 people can't tell if they're awake or asleep right now. This track is TOO ill!!!

[RaminMe2]

0:38 would look great if it was painted..

[Mraei0u]

Who speaks on the first line of this song???? and what is he saying??????

[illTuck]

@Mraei0u it's from the movie a million in the morning..check the link at the end of the song

[Mraei0u]

@illTuck No, I'm talking about the song... what is being said at the begining of the song? is it "if you see everything ------ there while you're awake, you're mad; if you sleep you're normal and having a dream..." ???

[GusKillah23]

who is talking and from where 0:25 to 0:45

[NewYorkCityUSA7]

2:37 to 2:51,,,,mad funny....

[MarcoOrBust]

dope track. Anyone know where i can watch this documentary without having to pay anything?

[mycultureisbetter]

@MarcoOrBust No I wish I even have Netflix and you cant watch it on there

[CreamRZA]

Jay Electronica, has a style of nobody, he has his own unique style.

[TheIyah1]

What is the beat at 3:59? Sounds very DOOMesque.

[DeaflyBlind]

@TheIyah1 Wax tailor how i feel

[TheIyah1]

@DeaflyBlind Thanks, I ended up looping the first part anyway.

[greeneightball]

this is so under rated/watched

[NathanIsWard]

What original motion picture is this based off of?

[greeneightball]

@NathanIsWard It's also called "A Million In The Morning" - it's a documentary check it out

[iSelfRecords]

yo !! you heard that [ J.COLE & TEQUILLA ROZE - the Roots sessions ] j cole goes hard !! the boi Roze is nice too .. BUT [ JAY ELEC ] IS MY DUDE

[TheKipKadillac]

@iSelfRecords There's no way I could ever listen to a rapper that names himself after a flower. That name sounds like a Gay Latino Porn star 

[TheKipKadillac]

Anyone know who made this beat?

[rj689]

mf doom said it best. hooks is extra. jay electronica is the fucking man hook or no hook

[anyguy08]

WHATS THE INSTRUMENTAL PEOPLE PLZ?

:D

[Monwell82]

2:38 - 2:51 lmfao..

[greeneightball]

blame netflix

[citystazstlye602]

How do u download this to mp3

[Sprafikk]

@citystazstlye602 go to keepvid dot com and copy the url of this video and paste it into there. Then click run when it prompts you to. Next click download FLV of best quality offered. Then you need to get a program that converts file formats, I use Format Factory which is free. Then when you got format factory or any program just convert to mp3... That's the process I use, there's maybe and probably a more simple way of doing it but that's what I do and it's efficient

[citystazstlye602]

Is that really the song named or wat? Plz answer

[jhaynes0588]

@citystazstlye602 yea its called "a million in the morning"

[sleepybag]

a doom/ elec collab would blow my mind

[ColdGripHandle]

Jay Electronica proves that people still appreciate that good shit. You don't have to be wack or have to dumb it down. The problem with hip hop is too many artists and too little talent but Jay is like a pearl amongst a lot of rocks

[alexliebach]

That doesnt explain why only shit rappers make it to the top. They give away the rights to their musical and lyrical content in order to make some more money. To sell out is the only way to make it to the top. Its sad but true

[rj689]

all my people should understand this song. im loosing my mind, ice on my nutsack trying to freeze time. jay elec is deep. peace and prosperity to all

[Drhughjanis]

jay elect has said it before... "Fuck a Hook"

[TheSummerkilla]

haters stop disliking vids like this man yall got nothing else to do man FUCK!!!!!

[thatkidushldkno]

jay elec cool but he aient got no hooks admit that

[ProfessorPeeweee]

@thatkidushldkno hooks are whack......

[TheBmachado]

@thatkidushldkno yeaah hooks are whack just like Shaq says "NO HOOK!"

[thatkidushldkno]

@TheBmachado this is elect w/ a hook tell me cole aient got this nigga

/watch?v=vlUnQ2PoT4s

[TheBmachado]

@thatkidushldkno hmm shits hard to judge both styles ain't the same but I do think Cole gets him by a little not much tho

[niruggg]

@thatkidushldkno hooks are the primary reason hip hop is in the state that it's in

rakim paid in full

fuck a hook

[thatkidushldkno]

@niruggg naw lil wayne the primary reason but jay-z gon make this nigga put hooks on his 1st album he still aint let cole release,

[hoodprophet]

real trippy...

[LilMaxo4President]

jay electronicas rhyming style is like no ones, and his subject matter is like a hood ass space traveler from the future with a messiah complex.

[travwhite2]

@LilMaxo4President u couldnt have said it anybetter...real talk fam

[THECREAMkillah]

@LilMaxo4President thats killah priest

[TheKipKadillac]

@LilMaxo4President hahahhaa that is so on point

[matthewtheschmidt]

@LilMaxo4President word

[youngfase5]

@LilMaxo4President word, a universal multi-cultural style nomad from the hood

[Nysmokes2012]

@LilMaxo4President your comment may have droped my IQ lol "is like a hood ass space traveler" LOL

[MoorMuzic]

ISLAM, return of the MOOR. Wake UP! Song is FIRE

[ibleedwords]

who ever dislikes this prolli doesnt understand smh

[Nysmokes2012]

Ive stayed up for close to a week its no joke not something to play around with ....very unhealthly not to mention dangerous :O by the last day i was passing out very 5 min sitting up in a chair at my friends house fun vacation lol concidering last rap i liked was old wu tang about 5 years ago shows how good jay ele is plus there is a bugga gump sign in the back towards the start FORREST GUMP FTW!

[Tbesti]

red dead redemption

[juwontiwo]

[ToddThaGod]

[JRemyLive]

How long did he sleep for afterwards?

[helobobomg]

where can i watch this

[Segtra]

What camera was used? Also effect to give the lights the trippy blur?

[TheYoYoWiz]

Hoping they don't see me, who ?

him right there with hands like a tiger, eyeballs of fire

teeth like barbwire, feet like tires

he opened up his mouth and then out came the locust

real hocus pocus trying to make me lose focus

Jay Elect is the EPITOME of Hip-Hop & RAP !!!

[DrekDigital]

PURCHASE OUR BEST BEATS ON ROCBATTLE

[helobobomg]

where can i watch this

[marymary111]

this is great! Brilliant song and this guy is a fantastic comic.

[bballstar23]

This reminds me a little bit of MF Doom.

[shawnycupcakes]

@bballstar23 My wife was saying the same thing.  His voice and flow do sound like MF Doom.

[EastVanProductions]

@shawnycupcakes I think Jay Elec sounds like a cross between MF Doom and Nas.

[anonymous2dotO]

@EastVanProductions thats already been done lol mf doom over illmatic beats

[EastVanProductions]

@anonymous2dotO I think you might of misunderstood what I meant. Jay Electronica's rhyme style is a lot like MF Doom but his content is more like Nas'.

[lykewyze]

@EastVanProductions your soooo rite man!! ive ben thinkin that since i 1st heard jay

[guerrillabeast2010]

@EastVanProductions

he does sound like doom

[lotusdedart]

@EastVanProductions I thought the same! Cool stuff bra

[THEREALghostlaced]

@EastVanProductions lyrics arent like Nas, more like Killah Priest

[gaywhitekids]

@EastVanProductions you dont understand this content to the fullest.

[iigunzent]

@EastVanProductions For a minute I thought Jay elect was actually Doom without the mask. lol I'm still not completely convinced hes not.

[Ranman551]

@EastVanProductions I agree, i've always thought jay says things in his own unique way like doom, but jay is actually SAYING SOMETHING unlike doom most of the time. doom always seems like hes rhyming just to flex his skills, while jay electronica is dropping alien-like commentary on us

[RobCrotch]

@EastVanProductions Nas? It's almost like a carbon copy of Killah Priest.

[deadpresident33]

is this documentary any good

[thatunit995]

the outro beat is fire, that should be used throughout the whole song!

[SAINTORLEANZ]

@thatunit995 That outro beat is by Wax Tailor. I think the song is called How I feel

[newjerseymc]

the best out by far

[JustBlaze234]

kinda reminds me of MF doom a lil

[yogocomedy]

'fuck you time square im losing my mind ice on my nut sack trying to freeze time'

jay crazy

[SuperMelloc]

This is so hot 5 stars

[Ninjamonkey46]

the 504's Lupe

[homecominghome]

@Ninjamonkey46 Lupe is Chicago's Jay Elect

[Ninjamonkey46]

@homecominghome lol that too

[homecominghome]

@Ninjamonkey46 lol...they are both dope

[patrickthadude]

there are marijuana strains that can give you the feeling of being awake for 24 hours plus.

[sc87sk]

@patrickthadude truth.

[arcticbyron]

it's called being laced.

[patrickthadude]

@arcticbyron hahahaha hell naw fool my cheeba is strictly cali medical grade from an organic dispensary...never laced and I can't stand tasting any chemical additives in what I blaze. I'm a cannabis connoisseur of the highest order.

[arcticbyron]

@patrickthadude haha ohh ight then fo shoo.

yeah , i dont like my shit laced either man

[deadpresident33]

youre just a prick...pa[trick]

[patrickthadude]

@deadpresident33 hahahaha yeah i'm a prick and you're a PUSSY... tryna get fucked or something? I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for some vagina today.:)

[deadpresident33]

wheres my money hoe

[laughingfool624]

@patrickthadude umm... please elaborate.

[Nysmokes2012]

@patrickthadude mmh theres also marijuna = or better then taking any energy drink or coffe you consume in your day its a wonder ( whats the diff of poping a pill when what 50% about drugs are produced from plants) when you read them and they have like 10 more side effects then what your useing it for ...and then the unknown ones weed has no offical documented so smoke on

[fleontrotsky]

@patrickthadude shit buzz, lol !

[IhateMEXILANA]

@patrickthadude and where exactly can i get this "strain"?

[FootballStarr21]

@patrickthadude wrong sir. that shit is laced

[Nysmokes2012]

@patrickthadude lol im not sure how i used to do it but i would stay up for like 3 days straight smokin indicas LOL and would listen to this song in the process i mean just staying up for 3 days is tough add a high quality indica to it and that shit is a challenge

[RaynMan718]

Visions of my dead father hopping out the urn. WOW.

[spideymayne]

@sofuknossum wtf? No.

[Cesar71413]

yo what's that beat at 4:00....

[badLuckrapp]

did EL-P produce this???

this beat is heavy

[TnTWarrior]

@badLuckrapp

that question is evidence of good taste

I still don't have an answer tho

[SwAgGaRyT]

he looks tired as fuck

[dern8402]

Garbage! Almost as terrible as MF Doom! Weak ass one syllable rappers, boring to listen to. No spark when they rap no emotion, put your heart into your music. Its probably that racist bitch Erykah Badu making him sound so down and out, I would hate life if I had to wake up next to her everyday too!

[mikesemec18]

@dern8402 get for real. What the fuck does it matter if its one syllable rhyming? are you even listening to what hes sayin in between you clown?

[IVIonkey123]

@atomicfleetwood Have you ever heard any other Jay Electronica songs? Probably not try listening to "I feel good" or "Something to hold on to" or "Exhibit C"(His single). I like Eminem but he isn't nearly as good as he used to be. Jay is not weak at all.

[FreeHundreds]

@atomicfleetwood you just sound like a whiny bitch

[Luuch1]

search youtube for__ GAME TIME 20:10 BoRn4Dis

[YoungCub]

He opened up he mouth and then out came the locusts,

Real Hocus Pocus, tryna make me lose focus. I can't wake up,

plus I couldn't run fast enough to make it to the trucks

So I yell... but no sound came out,

Teacher held me down while the jackals ate my brain out...

Then I woke up. Phew! Close call!

Stumbled to the bathroom, pissed all over the wall.

Twisted up a nug, sipping on Jack Daniel, watching True Blood...

Sookie was gonna get smashed by Eric & Bill....

[sp00kyPT]

REAL HOCUS POCUS TRYIN' TO MAKE ME LOOSE FOCUS !!

JAY ELEC = The Future of HipHop, The next HH Pastor !

[CeseNYbeaTs]

this track is bananas..

[taylor975]

does anyone know what the beat is at the very end, like the last 20 seconds of the video? is it from another song or just the outro to this one?

[jobeyrm]

@taylor975 ....the last 20 seconds of the video are a segment of a song called "the way i feel" by "wax tailor". he is talented as they come, and highly recommended if you are into the new movement of instrumental hip-hop the likes of rjd2, bonobo, madlib, and anomaly to name a few. this jay elec. song is bananas. he tore it up...the cat that said he lacked emotion needs to be slapped for trying to stagnate the indie hip-hop movement.

[alleyeseing]

this song is awesome

[BMoreGoHard]

Jay Electronica is to ill! Wow!

[ADdadirector]

WHOOOOOOOO!

[Kadonkadonk100]

smacked it!

[peterscoop]

who cares if some maniac doestn want to sleep, why do you make a fucin movie about it omg

[27713bullcity]

does anyone know if this film is on netflix, i can't find it?

[djnikel]

damn :( this came out over a month ago and i just heard it now? good shit. the dude in the video seems awesome

[215Boyzz]

jay elect is the future then jcoles then freddie gibbs then Jimmy Snakes

[briank1ne]

the real question is.....who made the beat?

[morongobob]

EPIC.

[Mclean84]

lol let me know what kind of shit this guy is on, so I know not to take it

[GottHatHumor]

Minute 3:00 - incredible, Kalle Pohl!

[eeqlzmc2]

i stood up 3days i didnt have any problems all day, it was only from the hrs of 7am and 10am i would be tweekin' after that i was alwayz good

[kburrell81]

[KillenEMsoftly]
