K-Os - Crabbuckit

[KURTYBOY561]

@ThrowDownArtists why are u saying that gay and Canadian are the same thing? At least Canada does'nt consist of fat obese overweight motherfuckers who eat at McDonalds three times a day.

[masiokowy]

Hit the road Jack !

[7057600798]

MY dedication Jason Henry..lol

[XingUnicorn]

[jardidge]

[thunderkidz123]

damn i love this tune

[orthanus]

I think you'll all find that lumberjacks actually, as any watcher of monty python will know, dress up in women's clothing, and hang around in bars.

P.S. Anyone caught taking my comment as a serious sociological summary of lumberjacks or indeed taking offense at it can will/should be swiftly removed from the genepool.

Consider your pathetic internet argument about Canadians concluded.

[FuckURmorals]

I don't like k-os at all. but this song kicks ass.

[crazysexycooltlc]

@hazlemay64,,,your an idiot i way sayin there isnt all lumberjacks in canada cause some guy said there was......i didnt say they were gay, the guys also said there were alot of gays in canada and i said no there isnt...WHERE THE FUCK DID U SEE SOMETHIN ABOUT GAY LUMBERFUCKIN JACKS.....sheeesh!

[jimmycorn55]

What year is this music from? sounds 1980 but im guessing 1991 ish i LOVE THIS SONG

[GillisMusic]

@jimmycorn55 this song was actually released in 2004 :)

[IeashiaIsGreat]

@jimmycorn55

close!

2004  lol

[crazysexycooltlc]

@boroviac...im canadian too n i agree with @nacholu i have never seen a lumberjack either and really bacon?? i love bacon as well and no not everyone in canada is gay if anything america has more gays then us if not the same

[hazelmay64]

@crazysexycooltlc Excuse me. My father was a lumberjack. Gay? I think not. He was a real man who loved and provided for his family. Sheesh! 

[drmotorboat]

Not Andre 3000, it's Saukrates

[Leackay]

im playing this on steel pan for a concert

[onwednesdaysimacat]

Man, i love this song

[jhnevans751]

Check it out - K-OS was one of the rappers interviewed for the book 'H O W TO R AP - The Art and Science of the Hip-Hop MC '

Awesome book if you're into real MCing and how legends put their lyrics together, he drops a ton of knowledge in that book

[Shantel0fiona]

my friend in this video! i was on set when she was dancing to it

[facejobby]

is there a small chance that guy at 2:48 is andre 3000

[Brylin2010]

@facejobby

yup

[Brylin2010]

@facejobby

Yup, good eye too in this low quality

[TheFlamingVomit]

dude i thought this would have way more views. ive been trying to find this song 4eva ^^

[deaker123]

CANADIAN!

[SourSugarxoxoxo]

why is he saying crabbuckit?

[isolateslowfaults]

@SourSugarxoxoxo Crabs in the Bucket... Black people are crabs in the bucket cuz whenever one tries to escape the rest pull him back in

[SourSugarxoxoxo]

@isolateslowfaults thank you so much

[dagonzombie]

@SourSugarxoxoxo search up Crab Mentality on google.

[cdsmi6]

Long Time Fan Of K-os

[LordMikkell]

If this song doesn't make you move than you have something wrong with you

[blablaat]

It's so weird to read comments about 'being young again'... This still feels so recent to me, while it's been SIX YEARS already?! Time fliiiiiieeeeeeeeees

[dagonzombie]

After 6 years I finally understand this video.

[cooic]

@dagonzombie can u explain?

[dagonzombie]

@cooic Well first off he is singing about Crab mentality, which is when crabs are in a bucket and one tries to escape the other crabs pull it back in, "If I won't live neither will you" kinda thing. k-os is wearing sunglasses that allow him to see the 'crabs' of society that will pull others down and not allow them to succeed.

[cooic]

@dagonzombie thanks

[Billythewookie]

I loved the beat from this I used to break out in a charleston every time they played it in the club.

[r0k3r101]

When I was like 10 I used to crank this in my mom's car and belt out the lyrics with the windows down! Ah, to be young again.

[Belleiive]

Every single song is a hit hit hit smash.

[Boroviac]

whats canada?

[skunkbait80]

@Boroviac It's where all the cool people live

[Boroviac]

@skunkbait80 Like justin bieber?

[skunkbait80]

@Boroviac k, he's canada #1 mistake. Besides that, it's a pretty cool place

[Boroviac]

@skunkbait80 I did some research on Canada

Is it true that everyone plays Hockey, eats bacon and is a Lumberjack?

[Alyssa0Melissa]

@Boroviac r u serious!?

[Boroviac]

@Alyssa0Melissa No..

[skunkbait80]

@Boroviac well i don't know, who doesnt like bacon? Or like to watch Hockey? Or like to live dangerously by being a lumberjack? I love being Canadian.

[Boroviac]

@skunkbait80 Hmm Touche, why does everyone hate canada?

[skunkbait80]

@Boroviac who hates Canada besides you and rednecks?

[Boroviac]

@skunkbait80 Oh... they dont have tv's in Canada?

Well there is southpark, people are pissed that usa soldiers fled to Canada

I personaly dont like maple sirup. and some people lol at your flag

I see a Canada joke like 2-3 a week, they are just known for being different

that's their stereotype

(im just joking btw idc where you are from)

[skunkbait80]

@Boroviac ok so your joking or not? you confusing me lol

[Boroviac]

@skunkbait80 I just love rubbing stereotypes in people their faces

Ofcourse i know what Canada is :P and that not eveyone plays hockey with a lumberjack while they eat Maple sirup.

thats what she said btw

[Boroviac]

@skunkbait80 Oh, and gay marriage

Just saw that in American Pie

[skunkbait80]

@Boroviac I can guarantee you that there's more people who probably hate Americans then Canadians

[Boroviac]

@skunkbait80 Hell yes i hate american's and their nationlism

[nacholu28]

@Boroviac I'm from Canada, and i'm not a lumberjack, and I've never even seen a lumberjack, but really, who DOESN'T eat bacon?

I don't follow hockey, but it's still fun to watch!

[Boroviac]

@nacholu28 and lissen to justin bieber?

[nacholu28]

@Boroviac Of Course.

[Boroviac]

@nacholu28 I dont know if i should call you gay or canadian because its the same thing

[nacholu28]

@Boroviac ??? I don't like men, sorry man.

[nixonpro24]

@Boroviac fuck you.

[hazelmay64]

@Boroviac People who accuse others of being gay usually have issues themselves.

[Boroviac]

@hazelmay64 I dont have issues, soo...

I dont know where that leaves us

[XenteMusic]

@Boroviac One of the indications of issues is denial.

Congratulations, you've proven his point.

Oh an by the way, have fun with your crippled economy while we enjoy our free health care.

[Boroviac]

@XenteMusic why assume im american?

and dont act like that saying is 100% failproof

how does that apply to every single human being?

[XenteMusic]

@Boroviac You thought I was making a serious statement.... wow... just wow....

And I assumed you're American because of your ignorance, and by looking at your channel I'm probably right.

[Boroviac]

@XenteMusic if you weren't making a statement, you have no argument. what was your point of commenting? damn canadians these days. btw im not american so the one ignorant is you

[XenteMusic]

@qq moar plox

[ThrowDownArtists]

@Boroviac lmao gay or canadian is the same thing. a statement like this just nullifies any point you try and make because your a childish little goof. 

[Boroviac]

@ThrowDownArtists its come to my attention ya'll think this is a boogus goof

another boogus down the goof drain

but i like it

[5thSunrose]

What is the difference between K-os and WiLL I am....i have no idea...

[310245535]

@5thSunrose They're two different people, with different lives and music.

[5thSunrose]

@310245535 Come'on brother just a simple square joke,that wasn't even made to be funny, u and i both understand that they are two different people, Their look similar and You were completely LOST from that comment...I was on K'os from way back in the day, Will I am was on Ruthless Records before he was major musically and as a super Producer, just to let you know that i know the Difference

This guy can do no wrong. Every beat he chooses is fantastic and he's got a great, relaxed flow.

[razor2910]

[smalls469]

@razor2910 Found him when I saw "Superstar Pt. Zero" on 106th and Park back in the day. So yeah, at one point in time.

[killkill0]

this guy is hip LOL

[Vauxhall94]

Tragically Hip, love those guys, leave it to k-os to point that out.

[sonyym]

[LeesieC]

[itsgoind]

bigUPS

[KyockLee123]

[ConfuzzledOwO]

[8sebastian]

was the music vid filmed in Toronto? o.o

[M3talMonkey]

yep

[RokkaX]

@8sebastian If you look closely, you can see a blue park sign which is common in Toronto. And also there's a TTC streetcar in the background.

[8sebastian]

@RokkaX I know it's just that I haven't really been to other big cities so I wasn't sure if they also had those stuff o.o

[baseballkid4lyfe]

k-os is amazing...cawthra support

[artace1987]

a lotof his songs are like this 1. some are jazzy some sound "funky"

[bebeval16]

Sorry but I hate this song.. Just because I'm dancing on it at skool and our dance SUCKS LIKE HELL !!! IM SO MAD !!! GRRRRRR

[sportsandbeer]

Get a life bitch.

[FiggleWiggle]

Yeehaw, Cawthra kids unite.

[uresai]

Man I remember as A kid i dint really like this song cuz I was dumb and into Commercial crap but now that im 19 Im fucking loving K-OS music

[marshmellows2]

superlike

[beaverman17]

@uresai dude i started listening to him when i was 12 hahaah glad to hear you've been enlightened.

[Anthony4568]

just meet K-OS today, no big :p no actually haha

[Barisaxlover]

I just saw him today, came to my school. Cawthra. how did u meet him?

[TheMrTim]

aha i love how all cawthra students are looking these up im from cawthra too

[Barisaxlover]

TIIMMMMMM Whatsupp its Pascal!!!!!

[neurochris]

was that snoop dog in the video?

[demonsotome6]

this song is so fucking sick

i could listen to it all day

[1414TheMan]

What type of genre is K-OS? He like a Rnb, Rap, and almost blues. Or is that just me?

[borisisgay56]

he mixes it all, but now he prefers Pop instead of Rap, atleast thats what i saw in his new album.

[MrM3rios]

Sad, uh ? It's strange how I love some of the new songs, but will always prefer this or heaven only knows.

[msm2you]

@1414TheMan there is no genre that will fit. RnB, Rap, HipHop, Jazz, blues, calypso, soca. It's all there in K-Os' music. The thing about Crabbuckit is that grabs all ages from the kids of today to the granddads who used to lindy hop with their girlfriends before headed for Europe and the Pacific in WW2.

Quality is ageless.

[robbertvdb]

i love the saxophone solo on this beat does anyone know if there's like more of these beats with saxophone solo's?

[Gindi23]

what he means by "crabs in a bucket" is that we as people follow the status quo, we do as everyone else does, we're afraid to be ourselfs like "crabs in a bucket"; is yu put crabs in a bucket 1 will try and get out but the others will pull it back down everytime. .

[INT3RGALACTIK]

my top 10 list of the dopest canadian rappers ever 1. K-OS 2. Maestro Fresh Wes 3. Drake 4. Swollen Members 5. Choclair 6. Rascalz 7. Belly 8. Eternia 9. Kardinal Offishall 10. Classified

[Gabrieja]

@INT3RGALACTIK You're forgetting all of the awesome rappers from Quebec like Sans Pression, Dubmatique, Sir Pathétik... etc etc etc!

[burningangel1000]

@INT3RGALACTIK vanila

[h4z]

@INT3RGALACTIK

No love for Shad?

[INT3RGALACTIK]

@h4z i do love shad still, but he's number 11 in my top 20 list

[SymphonyNo3]

freekin love this song

[grijsje]

Legendary good track, so underrated in Europe. All time favourite.

[voniak289]

song is amazing

[TwistedElegance18]

pure genius!

[Mrpantymelt]

K-os is the number 1 Canadian hip hop artist I think. Swollen members are a close second, then theres Saukrates, Cardinal Offishal, Tom Green lol

[Mcnair52]

Nop.

1. Drake (sad but true)

2. K'naan

3. K-OS

4. Swollen Members

5. Kardinal Offishall

[funnykid888]

WRONG! Kardinal Offishal is first

[GBallaJ]

Classified and all those maritime artists also.DL Incognito,Maestro,Joey Stylez,Caspian,Rezofficial,Ete­rnia and Shad.

[Velvetdusk09]

I thought Cardinal Offishal was. Tom Green does hip hop lol.

[CheStillFighting]

i think id have to give #1 to K'naan, probably

[elcattiv0]

@Mrpantymelt don't forget about K'Naan ;)

[thebetterderek]

@Mrpantymelt Rush?

[elti54]

@Mrpantymelt swollen members havent done anything in years.... they arent even considered now. They play at small shitty clubs and shows now cause its the only thing they can land.

[fufu52]

@Mrpantymelt he's pretty good, but i think k'naan and drake are better n their both from Toronto

[dmillage]

@Mrpantymelt classified?

[blubber25]

Amazing Video!

[jedwards0820]

Digging the clave...

[iluvlucyloo]

it's so similar sound and video to this swedish group Movtiz hit song. wonder if they copied...

[canuckflyboy]

I think Movits! would need a time in order to do that.

[MaTTxCool]

can somone name eny songs that have the same beat as this?, i wanna hear them.

[Hootshot112]

Outkast!

[kamszi]

@MaTTxCool hit the road jack ray charles, same bassline, same rythm

[FunkifyPunkify]

AWSOME!!!

[harman0220]

neil young is not trash

[suneet67]

organic hip hop at its best. props to pandora for playing his "love song"; K-OS is legit

[parasolface]

Haha, "Walking down Yonge St. on a Friday" it's not that great unless you're looking for something specific. Torontonians will understand.

[cgeorge1122]

lol yes

[Brendan8r]

Awesome, another great canadian artist, along with BNL, D.O.A., the Guess Who, Sum 41, Simple Plan, Steppenwolf, Nelly Furtado, Neil Young, and (ugh) Nickelback.

[Freagin]

Omgwhat about The tragically hip? :C Or Lover boy? LOL.

[Velvetdusk09]

Bare Naked Ladies? Our Lady Peace (I love their song Innocent)
