Das Racist Perform "Michael Jackson" - CONAN

[wetigaz]

dap should have stayed nearer his mic, heems should have been a little more emotive

[galadin4]

@wetigaz ahahahaha



[bougeebadass]

HELL YESS



[mongooses7]

I love these guys since they don't need the money and they show it by not giving a FUCK!

[KatoKid85]

Wow, I didnt think there could be any worse music than Dub Step, but I've been proven wrong. Holly shit does this band suck.

[MMJroo2011]

@KatoKid85 THANK GOD it isn't Dub Step. idiot.

[quicktoforget]

FUCK THE MUSIC INDUSTRY! FUCK THE ILLUMINATI! FUCK THE CORPORATIONS!

[smokyp3nguin]

It seems to me like everyone who already know Das Racist think that this is the best thing ever.

I think you've got to understand their humor beforehand to really enjoy this.

[TheMadvillainy]

@smokyp3nguin most accurate post in the entire comment section tbh

[v4lkyr]

there is nothing experimental about this, song structure and the beats are fucking simple like in any bad pop/rap song. the only "experimental" and "original" parts are those with random noises.

[joe14636]

I don't care for the live version, but the official studio version is amazing.

[naturallyuplifted]

Those girls are killing on the cymbals. Must've went to Julliard...

[spiderjerusalem100]

I understand that they're trying to be original and innovative but that was still pretty terrible.

[FHEN0MENAL]

garbage



[aminlikestits]

@FHEN0MENAL yes, yes you are. go back to katy perrys vevo page, faggot

[masterflashito]

Just because it's innovative and original doesn't mean it's good.

[hotbutter151]

@masterflashito Lol what? What qualifies as good, then?

[masterflashito]

@hotbutter151 Not 100% sure. I just know that mumbling into a microphone, and yelling about Michael Jackson is definitely not it...

[skdjhfkdhfa]

This sucks ass....lol.

[Koontakinte]

Regardless of not being in it for the money, I think there is a high possibility Das Racist could be the ones to run hip hop in this decade. Hope they don't water it down like nearly everyone else that stepped in those shoes.

[ReevesPalance]

What??? 600 Dislike??? How fuck can you dislike Das Racist???

[TikoDigitalLtd]

This video deserves every downvote it gets because the world isn't ready for something so innovative and original.

[maryouzouploads]

This is awesome! Why so many dislikes?

[PabloRusto]

В печурку всех!

[Twsit133]

to everyone who disliked this, fuck you.

[krakatoaBlowout]

das racist is such a huge mindfuck. good to know that in this day and age the same groups you see on a bunch of acid at camp bisco are also playing on prime time network TV shows

[powerfulSubtlety]

Incredible stuff. A hip hop performance with live instrumentals, satire, edginess that was entertaining and not tedious and pretentious. Such breakthroughs tend to be polarizing. I can imagine a lot of people who wanted some super-slick but standard recording industry stuff and proved disappointed.

[ghostdein1]

siiiick!

[hoorayforjesus]

You Drake listening to mother fuckers hating on this, get with the program.

[shuabert]

@hoorayforjesus Right, because listening to Drake automatically means you don't like Das Racist?

[nike23ful]

@hoorayforjesus I listen to drake and like this so am I still a hater.

[laika2420]

I'd like to thank weed rap.

[ashburnhouse]

This for nerds who can't get laid.

[lebanesesteez]

@ashburnhouse Id really like you to explain why then buddy

[DJPLEWTO]

@ashburnhouse so you're obviously a fan

[DaGreenEyedVillain]

@ashburnhouse do your research first... look up "huzzah remix"then tell me they don't get pussy

[mafafacorp]

i love the original but this performance really lacks energy and grossly overuses shitty effects :(

[poobenstache]

honestly, this was fucking awesome. i came here hoping it was shitty to talk shit, this video some how slipped by me. i was into das racist back in the summer, i still think their artistic integrity is great, but the overall theme is getting old as hell. heems new mixtape is trash. anyway, this performance was class.

[lbear1818]

honestly, a little too weird for me but the best i've seen from them

[coolazzlilguy]

I LOVE IT DAS, KEEP IT UP YOU GUYS GOT MAJOR TALENT.

[seriousbees]

Yep this is DR through and through.

[sixtybill]

its like... Trip Rap (?)

[NBApro74]

Sickest performance ever

[sadtofu]

Loved it!

[talarimer]

Pretty awesome. I've seen these dudes several times, but they've never done anything like this. Kinda' reminds of cLOUDDEAD's live performances.

[ShoesNeverWorn]

EPIC PIANO SLIDE 2:41

[rawaddict12]

weird performance? yes, but compared to any other hip hop artist this is one of the best I've seen.

[SladeSardine]

Thats why Im with Coco. He'll take a chance on a group like DAS RACIST.

[Jonathanaturmom]

That was the greatest song Das Racist has ever performed.

[jeffsolis]

Relax...It's just Hip-Hop

[Rottenostalgia]

Seriously, what's with all the dislikes? Even if you don't like the song, you have to admit that the performance was entertaining...

[chowmannyfood]

heem's is totally high during this haha

[paulhansen15]

Das Racist isn't in it for the money. They don't need your views bro. No one gives less fucks.

[MrBenx125]

@paulhansen15 Hahaha what do you know them?

[raminshaman]

Wake up people, this performance was awesome. I guess now we Americans need our hip hop to fit into a nice little box, which we can seal up and label.

[SkeksisRule]

@raminshaman I love Das Racist, but you have to admit some of their songs are really garbled and mashed up. I think "not fitting into a box" is a cop out sometimes when something is genuinely shitty. I could fart into a microphone and someone in the world would like it. It doesn't mean it's awesome and the rest just don't get it. In this case though, it was awesome.

[Aholesandwich]

America- we have to censor the word "shoot" awesome

[121sputnik]

This Performance was pretty good though lol

[121sputnik]

I think a lot of people don't like it because they can't really perform this to top potential as they want to. They have to censor all their curse words. They made this for fun and are sharing it with a bunch of people who came to see a talk show not their real fans that they can have fun with. I <3 DR

[121sputnik]

Best hypeman ever



[ImSoVintage]

Shit was terrible

[ItsKingPeacock]

Amazing.

[WineProneCowboy]

Why do so many people dislike this? This is one of the best live performances I've seen on an American talk show.

[INHeadKay]

Because people don't want creative unique original performances, they want generic over-synthesized commercialized for mass consumption. Sade but true. This is why there are so many dislikes here.

[PancakeBooty04]

so good

[Transcedant]

I honestly really liked it. A lot. The pace and beats were brought up so much near the end. I really liked the drumming, too. Everything was really good imo.

[xBluBlahx]

they're obviously not being serious and are making the performance horrible because they're on conan, at least its obvious for me

[jerzy862]

I dont think they liked it...

[TheMOFOmer]

this is awful

[ballzindeep]

@TheMOFOmer Your mother is awful

[RetartedWaffles]

Well at least to give some credit to them, this is one of the worst songs on their album. They have some pretty cool songs.

[kalllesvensson]

das is racist is fucking racist

[r2kpei]

This was rad as hell DR our the shit and this blew my mind

[mgreznik]

Die hipster scum die

[prettyfly91]

All the Das Racist fans replying to haterz with DR lyrics, love it

[DOWNoSEToGO]

4:12 watch the guy talking at the podium. that's what i was thinking the whole time...... x(

[FrankLeeBlunt]

Too much cymbal

[myjahleesa]

So. Awesome.

[WowzaBoyz]

I'm a big fan of Das Racist and this is pretty bad. It's like some smart kid now showing up for his final exam...idk

[m0sas]

ive never seen so many dislikes on a conan performance.

[RMBOclannn]

Wtf that is the worst musical guest that conans ever had on the show

[thursday98734]

Das garbage

[NinjaCOOKIEZZ74]

Im a big fan of Das Racist, and I know like SO many ways they could have improved, and more people to lov ethem.

Did they need the echo on the mic? Sounds better with his voice:P But, +10 for Conen getting Das Racist on the show.

[NinjaCOOKIEZZ74]

people need to RELAX, just like the album cover.

[NapoleonThunder1]

I freaking love Das Racist; and though it would've been nice to see them do this song normally and absolutely KILL it, I still enjoyed this and found it hilarious.

[yourkidkabaap]

LOL, the chicks banging on the cymbals....

There's no mics picking up their sound....

[UltimateVenom]

@yourkidkabaap listen very closely to the right channel

[bailey1067]

The more people dislike this, the more I like it.

[DailyColors]

This is pitiful. It destroyed my belief in people being entitled to their own opinions. You are not allowed to believe this is good, because then it means you're a serial killer. Now in my honest opinion, I see little effort they took to create this, and someone mentioned splattered art as a defence for this... that's ugly and meaningless, the end. Passion requires effort and sacrifice, and this song is meaningless.

[llllllllllllllll0lll]

@DailyColors this literally exists to bother and confuse annoying, smug philistines like yourself

[DailyColors]

@llllllllllllllll0lll It's actually just quite enjoyable to give an opinion :P But being snug seems like a compliment, meaning I have a healthy life, which you should too.... still doesn't mean I don't despise this music in every conceivable way.

[llllllllllllllll0lll]

@DailyColors that was "smug", not "snug". you are common

[DailyColors]

@llllllllllllllll0lll "smug (smg)

adj. smug·ger, smug·gest

Exhibiting or feeling great or offensive satisfaction with oneself or with one's situation; self-righteously complacent: "the smug look of a toad breakfasting on fat marsh flies" (William Pearson)." Satisfaction was the element I wanted from this word. Either way, calling me common does not take form as it is an impossible characteristic for me to inhibit. Take "many people that know me personally";s word for it o:

[llllllllllllllll0lll]

@DailyColors you're hardly literate

ok Sick of arguing w/ White Dudes On The Internet

[DailyColors]

@llllllllllllllll0lll Because I was on a phone there was one grammatical error. You didn't capitalize "you're," and it's the beginning of a sentence that also forgot to contain a period. If you use the short "OK" form of "okay," it must be in capitals, and "Sick" is capitalized without reason, as well as "White," "Dudes" and "On." Secondly, people will like your comment without even reading mine. All of these dislikes = Das Racist = bad. "Different" is not always better, this as an example.

[llllllllllllllll0lll]

@DailyColors hahahahahaahahahahahahaahahaha­haahahahahahahaaha sick of arguing with Sheltered White Dudes on the internet

[yourkidkabaap]

@DailyColors If you've ever seen how they usually perform live, you'll realise this was SUPERHUMAN effort on their part.

And to be quite frank, these are guys who are just having a good time. They don't care if you like their work or not.

All they care about is the blunt they would normally have in their hands if this was one of their usual shows...

[DailyColors]

@yourkidkabaap Soooooooooo whether they care or not if I like their music... doesn't change how bad it is xD and that you called this "SUPERHUMAN effort," THEY'RE EVEN WORSE DURING OTHER SHOWS?!

[chainedsage2]

I like how they get a big TV oppertunity and could have just played the song normally but instead they make a joke out of it that only people who are fans get.

[TeriyakiShogun]

@chainedsage2 That's Das Racist for you.

[SpazFactorial]

......I feel like I should be messed up by some unknown drug somebody slipped into my drink a club listening to this.......I can't get into this at all.....

[iBladeV4L]

558 people think MJ actually died.

[00mrmonster]

Hipsters !

Gotta love to hate em'

[Elphieey]

I don't get the haterz.

This is DAS RACIST. I dig it. I'd be disappointed if they performed it any other way.

[pkattk]

I've never heard of these guys before and I absolutely love it. It's always bothered me how minority artists have to strive to keep themselves as mainstream as possible in order to gain fame. These guys here are getting their name out there by doing what they want, and trashing anything that gets in their way. More power to it, it's amazing.

Music is such a dime a dozen these days. There's plenty of room for experimentation.

[HappyPappyPlace]

This guys are just genius trying to scare average people :)

[Xolrules2]

oh god this was awful

[bantar420]

this makes me fear for the future of music :(

[pkattk]

@bantar420 Please sucka. Music will be just fine. You can't take a little weirdness can you?

[lowlypeasant]

Ok, I'm a fan now. and that MJ is the next best thing to MJ.

[chananallan]

what the fuck did i just watch

[mlmontez]

This was a sad way to get publicity! Peeps still using Mike Jackson for a moment of fame! Don't work for me and neither did the MJ imposter! Coming from a true Michael Jackson fan, that was a shame

[pkattk]

@mlmontez Michael Jackson is practically public domain, now. Everything he was and everything he represented is an amazing, yet sad look at American pop culture and what it brings out of a person, especially a minority.

[losg1977]

by far my favorite hip hop group i strongly urge anyone who loves hip hop to get on this

[StupedKid]

From watching the music video, to watching this. I gotta say this was just a lack luster performance, usually this song gets me hyped, this was just awkward, and made me feel like I had to make excuses for them :-/

[EpicRandomKid69]

@StupedKid confirmed for pleb.

[hkim927]

The people who were confused about the performance don't know that Das Racist are the new Kool G rap.

[iHyperteck]

People Dont Get Das Racist They The Shit

[joshpcolts18]

the indian guy screaming 'YOU FEEL ME'

[joshpcolts18]

im sure some people watched this and hated it. i watched it and was amazed. i want to meet these guys.

[addyfiona]

I KNEW MICHAEL WASNT DEAD!!!! hahahahahahaha.

[wafeman17]

ewwww....

[jakcha]

AWESOME.

[leonenaj]

WTF was this supposed to be? Just because it's different, it doesn't mean it's good. Everybody thinks they can make music nowadays.

[TazAgainstTheMachine]

@leonenaj Ah, ignorance. Go listen to Relax, buddy.

[JimiAce09]

@leonenaj What's so "different" about this? It's music, dude.

[bostonbruinbabyboy1]

@JimiAce09 this is hardly music

[JimiAce09]

@bostonbruinbabyboy1 Nope, this follows all the rules of music and barely does anything that is "weird." I honestly want to know what people find odd about this performance.

[EpicRandomKid69]

@bostonbruinbabyboy1 LOOK AT ME I THINK THAT JUST BECAUSE RAP IS PEOPLE TALKING FAST IT ISN'T MUSIC. ACTUALLY, IT IS AN ARTISTIC EXPRESSION. GO BACK TO THE SOUTH YOU PLEB

[leonenaj]

@JimiAce09 If I can make it on my computer in a couple of days, and I am NOT a musician, then it's not music. It a hobby maybe? Definitely not music though. I have enough respect for people who spent their lives studying and practicing music to hear the difference.

[JimiAce09]

@leonenaj You can remake ANY song on your computer and it won't take a couple of days. Maybe a few hours.

You're taking music way too seriously. Study, study, study. How about you feel, feel, feel. Music is more about emotion than technique.

[leonenaj]

@JimiAce09 I feel like the drawings I made in kindergarten should be worth a million dollars. Too bad. It doesn't work like that. I compare this type of music to "modern" art. (not saying there aren't artists anymore) But people who take a paint can and splash it on a canvas, don't deserve any credit. This is the same, except it violates my ears, not my eyes.

[pkattk]

@leonenaj If you think that's all that goes into modern art, then you really don't know what you're talking about, dude.

[leonenaj]

@pkattk I never said the word "all". Stop generalizing.

[pkattk]

@leonenaj No, I'm not generalizing. I know what you mean. And I don't think you still get it.

People call Jackson Pollock shit because it's essentially paint splatters on a giant canvas. But art isn't always about outcome, it's about intent and emotion. A beginner painter can make a more interesting piece of artwork with finger paint than someone spending twenty hours slavishly reproducing a portrait of a person with a pencil.

[leonenaj]

@pkattk And I respectfully disagree.

[TheLastRevelation01]

what this really michael jackson?? what year was this?

[ajadX162]

@TheLastRevelation01 its not MJ, this was after his death

[Niki166]

@TheLastRevelation01 No it wasn't. Michael Jacksons songs were actually good

[ItsKingPeacock]

@Niki166 Michael Jackson fucking sucked. I used to love him in the 80's and I've only recently realized what a joke he is. Talk about overproduced nonsense.

[Petsister]

WTF!!! I couldn't believe it when "Michael" came out

[mauriceq23]

what attracted me to this performance was that it was different/wierd...i say this tv intro was on point because this aired at the same time jacksons accused killer was sentenced....i love the beats...i think they could be a lil less flamboyant (however you spell that) and they should stop being sloppy...because they have a lot of potential (the song dedicated to you and only you is the shit...rough radio studio version)...and by the way, its funny as shit how conan says thats racist! at the end

[jezuz33]

guys i understand that, that was possibly the worst performance you have ever seen in your life but trust me these guys we're completely joking that's how they are. if you actually wanna listen to their music look them up. i saw them live and it was a great show. please dont judge them cause of this

[Velius117]

best part 2:40

[BYSweekly]

if they would of picked a different song , people would enjoy them a lot better

[TheCrowdsWatchin]

Well..they were shit.

[fird1]

i rather let LIL B fuck my bitch than listen to this

[MrMcriver]

not like odd future

[Volcanic9]

Almost like government cheese version of OFWGKTA

[ghostonvacation]

@Volcanic9 fuck odd future

[bigtoe566]

@ghostonvacation Fuck You OFWGKTA

[ghostonvacation]

@bigtoe566 icu icu

[MrChinaski84]

Mad drugs, yo.

[strangus]

Das Racist is awesome, they should have done a different song for their tv debut.

[SteveHealyyy]

Amazing!

[300josh]

Is this music? Da fuckk.....

[94knicks]

they suck

[ELOSHAZZY]

sad........

[Thexxweekend]

Das Racist is AWESOME!!!

[greenapplejuice23]

why did conan allow this shit on his show! this was horrible!!! omg i think my ears are bleeding out

[dudewithalaptop]

look at their music video. this video was shit

[iamjsmith83]

this was HORRIBLE. TERRIBLE. very disappointed

[AGiTAOPR]

WTF is this shitttt

[MaoZedongification]

literally the funniest thing i've seen in a while!

love this group.

[BASSJ3R3MY]

Just imagine, during this performance when they have the Micheal Jackson impersonator come out, that it was the real Micheal Jackson and this was his return from his fake death and they did it to promote his tour( that did not happen) and to promote Das Racist's new album. That would blow so many peoples minds

[xJusteBx]

ITS DEEP CUZ YOU DON'T GET IT!!!

[rappelz1fan]

The people on the stands who dont know them= WTF

[JimiAce09]

Conan skips Cool A.D. when he's thanking them at the end because he didn't notice Cool A.D. switched places with the pianist.
