Black Star- Supreme Supreme

[CoolKid562]

Supreme MCs They need to be recognized All the money is going to wack artists nowadays

[07NFFC07]

Excuse the link to pro-wrestling but this is like when DX used to re-form. BIGGGGGG

[josuev]

mos def's performances are always on point.

[BizNizzles]

Or perhaps you just ain't as smart as you think Figure 8'n on the thin ice part of the rink You a vessel that's promised to sink Terra Firma ain't as hard as you think Stare down, and you starting to blink

Like 182 this for fellas and the ladies who Don't need to be spoon fed like baby food I take a bite out the track like a Sabre-tooth And spit out the truth 'Til the cops come an spray the booth!

[Ginga]

One of the best Blackstar songs ever. The beat is incredible.

[mcblueleaf]

when I hear this live,,,,, feel like dying.

coooooooooooooooolllll!!!!

[zaza1209]

Where does the beat exactly come from? (if rocky soundtrack, which one please?)

Thanks

[zaza1209]

Damn, Talib's voice is just TOTALLY different than when he sings in studios.

The beat on this song is apocalyptic. Sounds like the end of the world. True music.

[deadlyErnest1]

end of the world? are you kidding me?

the sample is "butkus" by bill conti

[MoiChocolade]

Love Kweli's voice live!

[Punsjmannen]

There is no such thing as bad language, just bad people behind the words.

[Punsjmannen]

You all noticed that they changed all the "niggas" to "people" when doing this song live? :P

[zxcvbnmmasdfghjkl]

ummm yea also cuz its televised duh!

[Punsjmannen]

Heard of freedom of speech?

[zxcvbnmmasdfghjkl]

so u think its ok say fuck, shit, bitch, niggas on national television. there r consequences

[Turigamot]

Should be ok to say those things. Words are words. They are no more "bad" then "darn" or "shoot".

[zxcvbnmmasdfghjkl]

words that enunciate the truth, its public and rude, society has set a level of accepteble. if u said nigga and fuck in public domain or situation, heads would turn and eventually someone would say something.

[Turigamot]

Western society is virtually the only one with a stigma that great on supposed profanity. Again, words are just words. Enunciating the truth? Then saying dick would be no different than saying penis. And rude in public domain? Then I guess everyone is rude, since people use those words in public... all the time. The FCC is a waste of money. What we hear or see should be determined by the people alone. Changing the channel is just a click of a button away.

[zxcvbnmmasdfghjkl]

wow, so say nigger in public with black ppl in the area and i bet u will never say it again.

[Turigamot]

Racist terms are completely different from "fuck" and "shit". And I have said it before, jokingly, in a crowd of black people. Why? They happened to be friends of mine.

[zxcvbnmmasdfghjkl]

thats because they r ur friends, and u even stated it urself jokingly, some ppl take offense to that even if u r joking but the orginal comment stated "they changed all the "niggas" to "people" end quote. but i thnk its stupid and hypocrite of one.

[bfan82]

the fcc tells you how free your speech is when it comes down to anything being broadcast to the public

[Punsjmannen]

Well if freedom of speech doesnt apply when it is going to be broadcasted, it isnt really free at all then, is it?

[warnutztheloser]

i was there but i left b4 they peformed...didnt knw they were there fuck jimmiy

[TheguyfromMD]

number 5 on black star is children's story

this is from talib's "Right About Now: The Official Sucka Free Mix CD"

[Lil0LF]

illest song alive. this song has been out since like what 05? yet im the only person around my hood area that knows this song..

dissapointing.

[Senzilla]

This is hip hop

Pure and simple

None of this Lil Wayne and Soulja Boy Boy

[justtogetby23]

his voice sounds way different live, like at rock the bells, dave chappelles block party, etc.

[mendes3s]

Some rappers sing louder live, and changes the voice

[panamien36]

"I TAKE A BITE OUT OF TRACK LIKE A SABERTOOTH, AND SPIT OUT THE TRUTH TILL THE COPS COME AND SPRAY THE BOOTH"!!!!!!!!! - Talib Kweli rips this shit!!!

[orgnice]

this is a rocky sample called butkus

[bigjabba]

woah kweli never has this much energy

[allaboutkweli]

i was there! front row! dead center! khaki jacket, red hoodie under, black hat. its me! yay! siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick song.

[1hiya1]

[luisvuitondon]

[thelittlehopattheend]

Kweli sometimes almost sounds like DMX, I like his 'real' voice better

[drl070]

kwelis voice is crazy here

[palflax]

amazing, i hope they come out with a new black star album this decade!

[fleezh]

[kg999000]

One of my favorite duos ...... Is it me or does Kweli have two totally different voices its insane

[qdis662]

Just thinking that now, hes voice has changed but then I thought most Mc's voices and flow change,

Busta Rhymes

Common

Pharoahe Monch

Jay-Z just to name a few

[superniokas]

yap talib killed it. literally :(

[411vM]

this song is sick

but i wish talib wasnt yelling

[DanniToma]

They did it with this one !

[yukukawa]

[2ballislife2]

[mistapasto]

[princeoz17]

Both are talented Mc's without a doubt... I have to point out the way Mos can harmonize...truly gifted.

[Jeff5JPain]

love this song man, all i listen to is the infamous ppl, well mayb a few popular artists but most of the popular music isnt good to me

[princeoz17]

Simply talented...

Real Hip hop, a single movement, the truth, supreme...ONE

[SpinPhD1]

Mos owns this, crowds lovin him. one of the greats

[lmiller704]

THIS S*** IS SICK!

HOLLA!!!

[yayarea41507]

DAMN.............

[mightyhand]

supreme supreme. damn this niggas are filthy.

[ginobli1987]

this is real hip hop. all that southern crap is garbage. they positve, havin fun, and not once u hear a gun shot in the song. listen to the lyrics of their songs. they so underrated

[DBrown877]

Truth AOM77 you are so true. Its the same how not every NY rapper is about drugs and bullshit. I will change it. Trust. They suppress the black art for to long. And the audience accept it also. I got it. Going to FINALLY record my demo today. Truth. D.Brown. Like PB and J.

[AOM77]

Not all of ATL music is "shuckin and jivin" (look it up) there are a whole plethera of ARTISTS who havea lot of common sense to and creativity in their music but you don't hear them because of the commercial radio stations and other forces won't allow them equal airplay.

[osarsour]

Yeah definitely Black Star kills it. Its always good to hear a song that makes sense, not some ATL garbage...

[jedsixers]

i mostly only listen to southern rapbut man i love this song

[floodindahood]

if someone is intelligent or lyrically talented, in one way or another he has to wear a fuckin tux or sweater and glasses!?

u r the thick one here

[subwicked02]

this is my anthem right here. they peformed this at the Rock the Bells Tour. that shit was beyond sick!!!!!!!!!

[totsepwnsjoo]

goddamn, you people are thick.

Mos Def and Talib are smart for wearing clothing that oh, I don't know, ACTUALLY FIT THEM???

[Thugpatrol]

fer sure, mos def and talib kweli look good. no homo

[sdelight]

you guys act like this was a fucking fashion show or something its a performance who cares what they are wearing listen to the damn song.

[EmciqueFurilla]

France loves MDef and Talib Kweli... to phaaat !

[yumgsta]

yah...they stiff man :|

[keeganz1]

Its probley his own clothes, on a show like Jimmy Kimmel they wouldnt tell him what to wear so .. He probley was comfortable if he liked it.

[envyus311]

At least talib and mos ain't wearing his pants down around his ass and a shirt thats a 5xl. I still listen to the original Black Star album like at least once a month. Its still one of the best albums made.

[panto2001d]

thats just some ghetto ass haters if yo pants arent hangin you a fag, fuck the prison look.

[Canibus285]

talib wearing tht shit looks fucking uncomfortable mos def aint even wearing it tht tight

[sniknej3]

canibus - get into somethin more deep. dig substance. take your head out the fashion world. you sound like a female.

[Canibus285]

na find tht shit gay cuz i remember them wearing the clothes they were wearing in the black star album they werent even dressing tht hard

[didierspinna]

POUUFFFF !!!! too heavy i love itttt

[Canibus285]

dam talib wearing tht super tight sweater

[micaroni]

I seen them perform this song at the Anhiem House of Blues the shit!! That shit was off that Beautiful Struggle Mixtape!! Bump this constantly!

[CrikeyAlexNick]

Kweli uses two different voices when he raps. The one you hear for most of the song is what you'll likely hear if you see a show with him. His other voice, the one you'll recognize from songs like "Get by" and his more radio-friendly stuff, you can get a sample of starting at 3:09 on this clip. Listen carefully you can easily tell a difference. Most of you are probably just used to the stuff on your computers, go see him live, it's a whole other dimension.

[reh629]

two of my favorite MCs today. they arent ghetto rapping about killing another MC's family or driving a 1982 camaro with 30.3 inch spinning chrome rims. they just try to educate and spit hot lyrics.

[baglady77]

daaaamn..i wanna see them both performin on stage...come overseas maaaaaaaaaaaan!

[realrecgreal]

sutec blackstar !!

[calangodoido]

Sick Track!!!! FIRE!

[starbury0991]

does anyone have the link to dl this vid?

[wennisthemenace]

Talib's voice sounds hoarse like Mef's!

[alternit]

Its true that Talibs voice sounds mad different. A lot of rap live makes the artist sound different cuz they end up yelling their shit.

[beautifulleo]

I love it. I wish they would drop another cd.

[funkanella]

Kweli should have shot a video for this song it's Fire!!!

[ohanga2000]

why does talib kweli's voice always sound so different live?

[smithsta]

I don't think this for a new Black Star album or anything because the song is on Kweli's "Right About Now" album. It's hot as hell. Mos has an album coming out this month and Kweli has a new one in the fall.

[bunguzandoda]

Blackstar 4 Life!!
