[ggc74]

Dipset.

[egyptianminor]

Oh MY GOD!!! Pure Genius! He sampled a guitar version of John Coltrane's Post Bop master piece 'Giant Steps'! I already had a lot of respect for the little bit of his music I was aware of - as well as his production of Kurt Rosenwinkel's 'Heartcore' CD, but now he raised the bar.

[seboufdu59]

J Dilla.

[lilhavin]

Q is always shouting out other great artists. Thats luv. 95% of mainstream artists don't do that. Q is a legend!

[STEALTHvMONSTER]

[jorduner]

Thank you Jay Dee...

[dcooper1972]

what's the guitar sample?

[78proto]

@dcooper1972 "Giant Steps"/Joe Pass. Joe Pass was a genius!

[thenamesfrancisco]

@78proto that does not sound like joe pass playing

[whatsyourstory1]

@thenamesfrancisco It sounds like him off one of his virtuoso albums? He does giant steps, all of those albums are him playing solo.

[78proto]

@whatsyourstory1

Spot on. Virtuoso #2

[zayamiah]

RIP J DILLA for yall who dnt kno who made the beat.....

[UnseenLive1]

@zayamiah yea r.i.p jay dee, I always thought q-tip made this untill I was using my j dilla drumkit one day & came across the ill drums he used on this track:)

[xavierdachosen]

Q-tip!

a timeless track.

en fuego

[ThisisDF]

[big592]

[AngryMonkeyKing]

Thanks for uploading this. Tribe, Nas, & Biggie are my personal Top 3. ^.^

[jafooky123]

Please, more rap like this. 

[antibalas79]

I am the best emcee

[chocolatelove21]

I was in love with Q-tip he is such a deep brotha

[Chaosbomber3]

The only rapper equal or better than Eminem in my opinion.

[skisail]

@Chaosbomber3 Eminem... hahaha! if it's the best you know, I suggest you digg a little deeper.

[maccagrabme]

@Chaosbomber3 Rakim?

[mhulin88]

@Chaosbomber3 Eminem? Really? You need some help.

[Chaosbomber3]

@mhulin88 -.- i was joking chill...

[Smiggg]

@Chaosbomber3 phonte? posdnuos? trugoy? pasemaster mase? mos def? talib kweli? prince po? big pooh? phife? aesop rock? black milk? classified? cl smooth? common? rakim? gza? jaydee? kev brown? krs-one? nas? pete philly? batin? t-3? some emcee's of the top of my head that are better. in most peoples opinion

[PASSIONFEEDA]

OH my god....This was the tune!!!!!! Still is!

[seboufdu59]

RIP Dilla Dawg.

[crazyroon10]

drums are insane



[Billiardnut520]

@crazyroon10

Its a fuckin drum machine. You ever heard of John Bonham - Led Zeppelin's (huge band during the 70 & 80s) drummer. You want to see "sick" check Bonham out.

[crazyroon10]

@Billiardnut520 shut the fuck up breh i know who john bonham is i sampled his drums before to use on my mpc bitch

[iancurtis86]

@crazyroon10 it's not a drum machine, like that man says. The sample is The Vibrettes - Humpty Dump.

Peace

[crazyroon10]

@iancurtis86 what?? who said taht lol

[blaaket123]

Q tip is a beast. It just makes me mad when Jay Z and Lil Wayne say the best rapper alive and rappers like Q Tip are out there.

[deffine1]

PLEASE DON'T PUT JAY IN THE SAME BASKET WITH LIL GAYNE ISS JUSS NOT QL I MEAN DO U C DA DIFFERENCE YO WHUSS UP HAVE U EVER LISTENED TO REASONABLE DOUBT AND SUCH AND SUCH B REAL BRO Q TIP IS CERTAINLY ONE OF THE BEST AND SO IS JAY AND THERE ARE WAYS TO DETERMINE SHIT IN DA GAME YA KNOW ITS CALLED LYRICS .. NO DISRESPECT

[blaaket123]

@deffine1 WHY ALL CAPS? Have you ever heard of period or a comma? I feel Jay Z is overrated and should stop calling himself a real mc after 2003. I wish he would just left the game and stop coming back. I don't know why people keep acting like this JAY Z is untouchable. Nas destroyed him end of conversation

[Cdls628]

@blaaket123 I'm a Jay & Nas fan and believe their top 5 I agree he's not untouchable (even though I'm a .5% more Jay fan than Nas) and Nas did hand Jay-Zs to him but Jay's really good in my opinion American Gangster I'd say is his only really great album since the comeback Kingdom Come was all right and Blueprint 3 was solid on some points in my opinion he's not overrated

[hailflavour]

oh my god what a tune

[andyjb49]

Mos Def, J. Prince and Stevie, Marvin Gaye, Led Zeppelin and Biggie.



[number12stunna]

@andyjb49 Stevie Nicks is the shit.

[biene0m0]

busta rhymes has such a cute cheeky ass smile

[guitarinchris]

wtf, when did this happen? i love choclair's "let's ride" did q-tip do this as a tribute or was he trying to call choclair down?

[yankeesfan96]

@guitarinchris you gotta be kidding me



[unirvrsl]

those rhymes and that beat, one in a billion...have to give it up for Q & Dilla

[90threetill]

I listen to this on the bus to forget that I'm riding the bus

[HunterofNittis]

I listen to this song overrr and overr and overr and overrr and overrr

and overr

[krysis7]

Man I used to love this song. Still do. I dunno why people are so surprised this don't have more views they didn't give this video no spins when it first came out. Music industry politics. I believe they were afraid of Q-tips success since he hit the mainstream with two huge hit just by doin him...

[colaffee29]

I would love to see a girl like that dark skinned girl in any of these videos out nowadays.

[marlex1979]

34 people take the bus...



[zachrhea1]

This is easily in my top 5 Dilla beats. Anybody know what version of "Giant Steps" he sampled for this?

[socomXpert1]

92% of teenagers have turned to New school and Pop.If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music,copy and paste this message to another 5 videos. Don't let the real hip hop die

[fjdksl86]

@UnnamedNewcomer what do u think ur doing with a copy-paste comment on an artist's vid?

[slickstar15]

@UnnamedNewcomer ok stop with that, we get it, there are alot of us lyrical rap listeners, all we need is that last part

[BradBoi95]

@UnnamedNewcomer I listen too all of these but Big Pun tbf. Real music to the end!

[MrChristoh]

[SHOJMPR42]

[H2T]

no more cornrows,dreads  dang you gotta miss the 90's/early 00's

[mediatesilent]

any idea on the sample?

[DJBobtheorange]

@mediatesilent

Joe Pass

[dannyinternetz]

@mediatesilent

The sample is from a brilliant jazz bop standard entitled, "Giant Steps." It was written by John Coltrane.

[EvilFlamezOn]

dope tune

[gongorian]

Joe Pass and Coltrane would be boppin' to this

[PHarris27610]

j dilla!!!!

[tfewell73]

i forgot all about dis shit!!!

[jermain703]

rip jay dee

[Division1985]

Back in 2000, when I drove my new Explorer off the lot, I popped this song in the CD player immediately..

[tinelle100]

i can't believe ppl actuallly clicked dislike WTF how dare them this song is classic

[FOTSOproductions]

This might be the closest to perfection that music has ever come. J Dilla with some fat ass drums and jazz guitars, with Q-Tip rhyming about rolling out with the flyest women... this song is in a class of its own,

[SoalaJohn54]

this is a tight track, but i think q-tip is better doing smooth jazzy style music that's he's known for and im glad he did that with kamaal/the abstract and the renaissance

[etownks07]

Damn. That is TIGHT>!!!

[GMANKOOL23]

this was one of tip's unreleased album's. This video was never shown on tv.

[cintenta]

@GMANKOOL23 This track is on Amplified. The same album that had "breath and stop," and "Vibrant Thing." It was indeed released and is available.

[GMANKOOL23]

@cintenta I said the video was never realeased for " Let's ride" & if you read more about the amplified album, the only two music videos for the album had vibrant thing, and breathe and stop. The album was never realeased when it came out, and it was shelved until now. So we're both right,lol

[cintenta]

@GMANKOOL23 I bought the album when it came out ten years ago.. It included this track. That's all I'm saying.. peace yo.

[PHarris27610]

@GMANKOOL23 yo, this came on rap city a couple of times when the album came out... I remember that for sure... I was in college and when the video came on me and my roomate had a serious head nod going on... they showed it... #realtalk

[getchatissuesready]
