  • cool and easy

  • im going to go see them may 11th! can't wait! soo excited!

  • i saw them at ummmm playhouse square in ohio

  • its actually black violin in memory of their favorite violin player who passed away his last album was titled black violin ~ not all things are about ethnicity after all we are all people right equal no matter teh color shape size belief and other things~ amirite?

    lav these guys they are amazing !

  • Epic!!!

  • Excellent! *****

  • Mievhere why are they thugs?

  • these mixes between hip hop and classical is just wonderfully pleasant to the ears=]

  • thug who play violin... LOL awesome guys ._.

  • it sound great but cant hear it good.

  • why is it called black violin? Is it white violin the rest of the time? Could you imagine the lawsuits if we advertised the symphonies that way!

  • theyre black guys, with violins, not that hard to figure out.

  • First time I see niggaz playin violin...

    daaaaaaamned great...

  • I think one is a viola -

  • no they are both violins, one is electric and one is acoustic

  • No, one is a violin and the other is a Viola. The artist himself states that it's a viola. (named Violet...lol)

  • @IggyCyrus

    wrong, read below

  • I think a friend mine is a great composer,you be the judge,.im just trying to make classical music hip again

  • sorry my ignorance guys... whats this piece called?

  • Brandonburg Concerto #3

  • sorry, typo- Brandenburg

  • brandenburg! love this piece! well played guys

  • I think a friend mine is a great composer,you be the judge,.im just trying to make classical music hip again

  • dang!!

  • Awesome way of playing the violin! These guys can go much further, and I hope they do!

  • its so sad to see that like the president of the US of A you will only ever be recognised as 'black' through fault only of your own when you keep stating the fact that you are infact 'black' and unless those violins are black I suggest if you want any focus on the fact your playings superb then change ur name up. x

  • idk if anyone else already said this but this sounds like brandeburg concerto no.3

  • whats the name of this song

  • This is dope

  • very clever stuff ... good on you guys ... another dimension ... just when they thought they couldnt think of anything new ... and actualy with guys who have talent ...

  • Think this is good? Then check out the BAROQUE BOYZ and see what is REALLY good!!!!!

  • Creativity is the ability to understand and bring a new focus or interpretation to that which already exist...............but anyone can engage in repitition. Rise and take your place......it has been usurped for too long

  • wow i think they are good!! (:

  • *Looked through a few comments and saw racism*

    What the fuck?

    Lol This guys kick some serious fucking ass and people who can't handle that can just go to hell for all I care. What's with everyone putting social walls between races?*Spell Check* It's simply retarded because Music is made by all races. Classical is been for all, Rap is been for all *You see J-Rap now*, Rock is for all. It belongs to everyone! So get over it and stop saying which race is better and quit being so stereotypical!

  • couldnt of said it better myself

  • wow amazing :)

  • Hip hop and classical music is hot. but Hiphop PLUS classical is hotter!

  • I really wish more people would experiment with things like this. Classical instruments and unusual arrangements like this really the only thing that keeps music evolving! Good stuff!!!

  • Sorry but you comment is shit. This is a hip hop REMIX and has not much to do with classical music.

  • Was that taken from a Bach song ? I thought this was an original composition

  • Not enough stage presence, but then, I watched some "Nuttin' But Stringz" first ;)

  • I may actually listen to hip-hop/rap if it started sounding more like this

  • nice.... very creative. hip-hop + classical violin sounds! kicking some ass

  • all they need is an ILL emcee!

  • wow they made violin pimpin' lol

  • is that because he's black? ... that was pretty racist... if not then it just wasn't funny to me.

  • People say so much stuff is racist, I'm not even sure what racist means anymore.

  • i just saw them today

  • A movie? Nick Cannon makes stupid movies not every black artist makes stupid movies.

  • They dont look similar

  • they slayed it

  • they r fucking awesome they came to my town for the river fest and they killed it

  • I liked it

  • im glad there are still people creative enough to make amazing things like this happen

  • sounds very good but crap sound quality

  • I LOVE IT!!!!

  • love the combination, great job on the violins - ya'l got skills on it

  • omg they're playing brandenburg! :D I love that song lol but I haven't heard it with the hip hop style, its awesome!

  • Yeah!!its nice to hear J.s Bach incorporated with hip hop!!

  • Impressive!

    If you like this type of music you might want to check out Bushido, one of the best German rappers.

    YouTube-search "bushido berlin"

    "Berlin" is a nice song and if you liked it, then check out Bushido's album "Von der Skyline zum Bordstein zurück"

    Greetings from Germany --..-> RepResenT!

  • Hey Everyone, this is not spam. This is a fan saying check out this artist. And I'm inclined to agree. Bushido is.... an interesting person...lol. Pretty good music. (jackjohn- I'm a Tokio Hotel fan, thus the "interesting" comment. I'm sure you know about the relations between these two, lmfao)Grüße aus America! Wo in Deutschland bist du? Ich war in Köln für 4 Monate (August bis Dezember) zu studieren. War echt Geil!!

  • nice!

  • where is this?

  • Gettysburg College, Gettysburg, PA, USA. It was an outside concert on our campus for our annual spring festival. On Stine Lake, if you really wanna get specific. (And if your not from Gettysburg, don't ask about the name Stine Lake for a grassy quad. Long story, lol)

  • cool..

  • yep brandenburg concierto i played it for my honors orchestra at school

  • We play a version of this song....very cool.

  • thats cool... rap was always more related to classical music then anything else... I mean it does have it's jazz influences but it's roots come from classical music... cyl

  • Nope XD

    Not going to go into detail, but although this song is based off a classical piece and the instruments are mostly for classic music

    Rap's roots are not related to classic or for that matter even jazz at all

  • comes from funk doesnt it?

  • This song reminds me of a Xzibit song on that multiply CD, believe me, their is a song that is really like this!!!

  • This is Tight...Leave it up to the brothas to make the violin FUNKY.

  • who ever is thumbs downin ya aint hearin ya. it did take Black Violin to open the minds and ears of the hip-hop genre to a sound they may never have heard or wanted to hear before. being a hip-hop artist i have been inspired and may have to change my style up on a few tracks. one hunit. soundclick. com/crooksupnorthproductions

  • richtig fetter sound....fett...

  • Ja, diese Musik ist echt Geil, oder? Kennen Sie Black Violin in Deutschland (oder wo immer Sie sind)? Wenn ich in Deutschland war (4 Monate- Ende August bis Dezember), Hore ich sie nie... War sehr Trauig.

  • disss isss siccckkkkk.....wow.....heavy..­.dey need to cum ova to da UK.....

  • quite cool

  • that is so damn hot!

  • this sounds like a rap and variation on Brandenburg Concerto 3 by Bach. Awesome!!

  • Look at all of you fighting over the stupidest shit in the world. Black people are better at music white people made all the music, anything to fight over. MUSIC HAS NO COLOR! Its good or it is not and music has a big impact on every one black, white whatever! If your good at something nothing should hold you back AND ANY ONE WHO APPRECIATES MUSIC WILL NOT JUGDE THEM ON COLOR BUT SKILL!

  • You cant tell me thats not hot

  • I want learn how to play!

  • less

  • this shit rocks... damn

  • bballbabexox, you're talkin bout get our own music? All music is ours, you should go tell elvis that.

  • awsome

  • if you dont appreciate what they're doing, then dont watch their videos o.O....

  • amen. haters should become doers.

  • Bro stop hatin', I get so tirred of everyone putting people down.

    In my opinion "Black" people are better at music stylistically, cause it has such an impact on their life. I love music as well, but I'm nowhere near as good at what these guys do, they're unique. People love them, get used to it!

  • Its the Brandenburg but in a minor lower key.

  • Wow, they just killed that Brandenburg. Makes me wanna start playing again.

  • to video einai gamise ta!!!!!!!!!!

  • brandenburg BV Remix love this

  • yeah! that's the way we like to see it!!

  • thatz amazing

  • It's the first couple bars of one of the Brandenburg Concertos....5 or 6. I can't remember. They definitely brought it up to date and made it HOT!

  • whats the name of this somg.... someone please tell me????

  • brandenburg concerto No.3 by Johannes sebastian bach

  • that was amazing...i wish i can play violin i only play piano

  • how can you say out of tune if you dont even know how to play a violin yourself....you don't even have a vid of you playing one....Let the music speak for itself, music can show us many things and gives us many expressions to express our feelings

  • You can't be serious. You don't have to be a best-selling novelist to know when a word is spelled incorrectly, and you don't need to play violin (or for that matter, have a  video of your playing) to know when an instrument is out of tune.

  • Just to add some information to this line of argument, not taking any sides, but the day that they were playing it was overcast and very very humid. It had started to sprinkle during this song. In fact, they cut the concert short either after this song or the one following it. They mentioned themselves that they rain was messing with the tuning of thier instruments. So yeah, they were out of tune, but there was a reason for it.

  • Man, that is some sweet fiddlin'

    Keep on fellas, I want to hear fugue in d minor... I LOVE that last part, so beautiful, so much soul... makes me happy to be alive.

  • And it is not out of Tune  it is supposed to sound like that geese my goodness dont crtisise

  • this is my favor one so far~~

  • Guys explain how it is out of tune?

  • actually it's just ONE guy saying they're out of tune... i was just correcting his wrong idiom

    but i guess even that is enough to get modded down :-)

  • the voilin is out of time and not played very well... but the concept is interesting, shame some better musicians dont pick this up. even then the concept gets a bit dry, its just a classical turn with a beat... thats hardly groundbreaking or talented - theres so much more that can be done on this basis...

  • it's called "out of tune"

  • out of tune and out of time! even worse haha

  • Cant you just let some1 have there music , does it matter stop hatin on people

  • I'm not hating... its called criticising...

  • They can play jazz, classical, etc.

  • [Unfortuantely]] I agree...

  • theses guys just came to VT

    it was ridiculous

  • what song are they playing?

  • brandeb=nburg concerto no.3  i think they make it sound cool^^

  • this is impressive...see how the violin its gettin a very famous instrument, mixing it up with all the types of music of today..thanks for posting this vid.

  • look, can you kindly read the message on your site that I left you, it explains everything. I've tried explaining it in the comment but not enough space.

    that's not what I meant at all, and sorry about the previous comment, that was rude.

    but out of respect for me and you, please don't question my knowledge in music. it's degrading. everything will be explained in the message on your page.

    that goes for everyone else who wants to reply to my comment

  • second of all, i meant string instruments. not drums. I've been playing cello for 12 years. It doesn't even matter now. the comment was made in the past.

    And another thing, speaking as a musician, I have been aquainted with black violin and have actually had the pleasure of playing with them and hearing their view on the subject.

  • this is tight!! black ppl represent, keep doin things that push the limits and show us in a different light..and mcspanker w/e ur name is,black ppl DO play instruments actually, maybe u need to look up some new facts,have u heard of a drumline?? wat do they play?

  • ok first of all I am black nerd

  • you can go ahead and mark all my other comments as spam because their not important. I would really rather not argue about this on youtube, kinda defeats the purpose of expressing my opinion.

  • i wasn't bashing the fact that they are black, i'm stating a fact. Black people don't really play instruments.

    Don't be so quick to jump to conclusions. when you see black people, it's usually rap or r&b, not classical violin, nor hip hop on classical violin.

    and f.y.i, i do like this song, they're actually on myspace. check them out if you like

  • you know what, nevermind. because no matter what, you guys will continue to leave harsh comments on my page and say things and you don't even know what they mean.

    Black Violin rocks!

  • Keep doing what you guys are doing and recognize that you are "Black Violinist" it's not a race thing but society is quick to point out we're black when it's something negative but when we do something positive they ask why we acknowledge that we are "black this or black that"...Still trying to erase our accomplishments from history!

  • Of course people are going to think it's unusual for black people to play violin--cause it is! It was unusual for white-guys to rap, but look what it did for Eminem! Let's just hope that the surprise factor helps get them mainstream play like it did for Slim Shady.

  • thank you, that's all i'm trying to say. we progress no matter what we do or what field we're in.

    see how famous eminem is? i'm hoping they get there or past there

  • man u guys sound to tight

    thats really cool how u do that

  • Y BLACK VIOLIN??

  • lol, their NAME is Black Violin! rofl

    they bring it up... anyway they rock.

  • I want this in mp3...

  • there gonna play for Clinton Portis in Washington DC on 9/1 for his b-day, no lie. They told me at my school today

  • this is so crazy! we need more mainstream artists like them!

  • I like this its hot that black boyz r playn like this

  • yo just chill ppl colour doesnt matter this shit is tight no doubt fuk the whole colour thing

  • anyone who degrades these 2 guys obviously have issues, they are amazing in the sense that no one has done this to the point of getting somewere off of it

    right on guys, keep doin that shit up

  • I was at this performance it was absolutely amazing in person. They are going places indeed.

  • this is awesome!
