  • @pianosistah Omg are you serious ! Thanks sooo much!

  • OMG does anyone know this piano part!!!

  • Yes yes yes!

  • Art therapy. Beautiful simplicity. Love this AND Mos' version...

  • FRESH!

  • "When I'm down, I just draw some roses on a pretty piece of paper with my red Stabilo pencil..."

    What simple but beautiful lyrics!

  • wow mos def is kind of a cop-out, this makes two songs that i've found that he didn't compose lol, he just raps over them.. what happened to his genius, or i mean, does he actually compose his music..? do any rappers do? WHAT IS GOING ON!!!! lol

  • @fearfulmatrix lol can we blame him. . . If I was a rapper I would love to get the opportunity to rap over this track. . . let's not underestimate this man's brillance he is truly a talented rapper that can go in on any track. Yes I give it to you that originality is becoming something that is unfortunately going by the way side, however he's a rapper not a producer so I think he is doing his job and very well. . .

  • @joi124 Then i think i must have misunderstood as rapping by a much brighter better sense of artistry and originality. I think that this might be the problem as to why hip-hop records by some are treated as disposable, because there really wasn't something original in the first place. If rappers would compose their music, and lyrics, much like many other musicians do, then hip-hop music in itself would be taken more seriously.

  • @fearfulmatrix Yea I definitely agree and I also hold Hip Hop as a superb form of artistry. Your art is held to a higher regard if you are the originator in every aspect of the track. Trust me I share your frustration with hip hop but I think Mos Def is a lyrical expert compared to some other rappers who are completely fabricated from their beats to their bars. I interpreted him rapping over this as an opportunity to work with a great fellow musician Georgia Anne more than anything.

  • @fearfulmatrix Hip hop isn't taken seriously cause the powers that be exploit it for their own means. You miss the point and the history of hip hop. Hip hop is about taking existing sounds, existing tracks and making something new from it. Hip hop is referential and can only be understood as that. J Dilla was definitely creating new shit. By your standard Rock and Roll is not original because the scales, cords and vocal patterns are all heavily borrowed from the blues.

  • @Cooprdog Yeah in one form or another, mixing tracks looping them and adding lyrics while tweaking the sounds can definitely create something fantastic. A great example of this is Midnight Marauders by Tribe called Quest. Though in this video though, which was my main complaint is how Mos Def pretty much rips off the song, and calls it his own. You could say that he probably bought the rights to it so it doesn't matter, but that doesn't really give originality at its whole.

  • absolutely beautiful, so full of soul, creative and inspirational. Definitely so high above what's airing today on tv and radio

  • man when u walkin to class, walkin through tha quad, aint nothin better than jammin this, lookin up at the sun, takin a deep breath and remembering why you lucky to be alive on such a grovy-ass day

  • Somzera!

  • love the fro

  • Keep coming back to this one, thanks for posting, Georgia is genius! She's just as humble in real life as this video suggests! More LOVE! This song is SO healing!

  • I just discovered her today and I love what I've heard so far.

  • How could music like this NOT be on the radio? And they wonder why the youth is wild as hell...No balance in the media they're bombarded with...Mellow music with positive undertones without all the sexual/materialistic messages...

  • I'm getting this CD!!!!!!!!!!!! She is amazing

  • she put a smile on my face

  • this is another one that will fall through the cracks and no one will ever get to appreciate, shame

  • @KaraokeKing Not necessarily. Real music lovers don't only rely music promoted mainstream media. Besides look at Janelle Monae; she's been around for a little while and has her own style of music with positive vibes - now she's on the radio still being true to her style. There's something for everybody out there if they want it.

  • amazing

  • pure poetry my niggas just like flying lotus tea leaf dancers song if u hear the lyrcis u wud know

  • I like!

  • wonderful morning tune.

  • Omg she is the best lol and she out does everyone

  • beautiful

    

  • simply beautiful

  • LOVE THIS SONG, I am so blessed to have met Georgia and Dudley at her dad's memorial service in Leimert Park. Performed quite a few times with Ron before his passing. RIP. More love, GEORGIA ANNE MULDREW!

  • Contemporary, yet classic. Uniquely gorgeous music.

  • Mos and Georgia are really fly. This song makes me feel so many things I can't explain...

  • Pure love and genius of course. I agree wit mdinmusic. GA if you listenin' , we need this and it makes us understand and thrive.

  • PURE GENIUS! LOVE YOU GEORGIA ANE MULDROW, keep doing what you do!

  • I feel so much beeeeeet-teeeeeer! Thanks Georgia.

  • Yo Georgia is that NEXT ISH!!!

  • I just love this song, now I love the video Georgia is so beautiful... love her smile...

  • This is so fly!  I love it... Defying conventional norms and maintaining soul!

  • man i thought she looked really manly but this is a good song.

    man i'm a jerk :( but she's got talent!

  • yeah u are man lol not cool

  • Ms. Muldrow is Amazing!

  • This is the best female vocal I've heard this decade.

  • This song is so dope,she has a new fan.But when I got the Estatic and heard the Mos Def version I loved it even more.

  • trippy.

  • muldrow is a beast at production...alot of dudes need to respect tht aspect

  • Im in love with her. She is so special.

  • I love both versions mos def just brings a different type of energy to the song

  • this chick is complex.. musically, lyrically.. SPIRITUALLY!!

    deeep stuff!!

  • This song got me through some real lows this year.

    Some songs are given straight to us from the Most High and this song is one of them.... Keep letting God use you Georgia Anne.

  • mos def or no def ITS ALL ABOUT THE ONE (yes you)

  • I can see if you heard this first how you might not like the Mos Def version, but I think the song is great either way. Mos hypes up the song and drops an undeniably great verse..."a smart dude never graduated art school, stay tuned I'ma show you how my art move, shapes and dimensions, flows and extensions..."

  • Can anyone suggest any songs that are similar to this or on the same level as this. I want to make a mix tape.

  • so much better than the mos def bastardisation

    sorry moss, but you know it's true

  • I love the mos def version

  • had to pour a glass of wine and spin this back, this blew my mind!

  • They play this quite often on the underground radio station where I live.. I LOVE that there's a video for it.

  • what a song

  • wow, she done took me to a place so euphoric...wow!

  • I fuxks with it Georgia..."Please don't worry we're forgiven..." lol. Peace queen.

  • this song is beautiful

  • She is so talented its unbelievable!!

  • its way better than mos def acting like puff daddy circa 1996.... i love it more now!!

  • @Simus1974 wit mos deff it was gud to

  • its better without Mos misplaced adlibs

  • agreed!!!

  • Comment removed

  • SOO DOPE!!!

  • Never knew this was originally just a Muldrow track. Only knew it from Mos Def's LP. Either way its superb.

  • Wow

  • It doesn't get better than this. Dopeness squared.

  • love this .....

  • love this! just so very beautiful!

    i didn't realise it was a full song without mos def!

  • Thank you Georgia Anne! Half way through listening to THIS joint, I feel so much better ;-D
