Nas "Shine on 'Em" Video

[Heronting]

To anyone who hasn't watched this film, i highly recommend it. Definitely worth watching.

[papan1990]

Nas is a non show off, sensible and a brilliant artist with a great variety of lyrics. Don't even think of little wayne and kanye east and all the other homies. Nas is the shiite....

[MobiusX]

why is volume so low?

[Videos4Youuu]

Thumbs up if u find this song from the end of Black diamond Movie!

[elitedonk]

Everybody wants diamonds without the bloodshed.

[bennieboyy16]

Blood diamond

[MostCommonName1]

I found this awesome song at the end of Blood Diamond, hell of a movie.

[stopwhining1]

Love this joint... and I didnt know Leonardo Dicaprio was a Nas fan

[DaBumbasta]

Why can this song only be found in bad quality? I need to turn my sound to insane amounts just to hear it

[ITguy82]

agreed



[11fracchiak]

this is one of nas' most underrated songs. such a powerful beat and message.

[Carlovanelswijk]

Normally i listen to Deathcore and Death Metal, This song happend to be in the suggestion bar to the right, knowing that it wouldn't be near to what i listen i still decided to give it a listen. Im glad i did, normally i get a wrong impression of what rap/hip hop really is when it comes to the lyrics, but this one really hit me. Glad someone finally came forward with making something with this impact.

[bubbie978]

@Carlovanelswijk if u like this then u gotta hear the song poison by nas

[bubbie978]

@Carlovanelswijk if u like this then u gotta hear the song poison by nas



[bebemax95]

@Carlovanelswijk Glad to see you understand what real hip hop is now. you can really learn a thing or two from it sometimes. Like in this song ------>>  /watch?v=tnDWucwo894

[BonGsnBLuNTz]

this is a sick film

[TerminatorX87]

UM.......G.O.A.T.

[youngice604]

This song is WAYY better than Kanye's song about blood diamonds

[AmaruAgent]

Why is this song and rapper so underrated?????? Underviewed??? He brings so much more that just guns, money and hoes....and his videos are always good. Appreciation for MUSIC has declined tremendously

[deano19892012]

As an ethical environmentalist, this song has some truth to it

[TheEs2022]

29 mis- likes

[brom16]

I was pretty much blown away by this film, and then this shit song came on at the end and ruined it.

[Mike8B]

@brom16 You don't know what music is bro.

[brom16]

@Mike8B You clearly don't know what music is. The lyrics are fucking child like.

[Mike8B]

@brom16 No, YOU don't know wat lyrics is, its about the people of Africa, slavery and Diamond smuggelin.

[brom16]

@Mike8B Hahahah obviously that's what it's about. I can see why you like it now.

[brom16]

@Mike8B "You don't know what lyrics is" doesn't actually make sense. So clearly you don't know what lyrics are.

[stopwhining1]

@GawainValentino dont get ur hopes up too high... nas says a lotta shit but doesnt deliver on his promises all the time.. dont expect the album to come by summer.... dude is still touring with damien marley so i doubt he's been workin on the solo project much.. plus u know nas is known for delaying his albums

[tobsterrox123]

Nas is a MASSIVE dick but he can rap

[Heronting]

what movie is this? Leonardo de Caprio :D

[ThisWouldBeMike]

@Heronting It's called Blood Diamond. I highly recommend it.

[Heronting]

@ThisWouldBeMike thanks i'll give it a watch, it looks good :D

[patmysterio23]

@Heronting Blood Diamond

[Heronting]

@patmysterio23 Thanks ;)

[ottomanbear]

Great song though I had difficulty finding it.

[sscarfface]

nasir is a smart thugman gotta respect that shit represents muslims g

[TheButtonzChannel]

Lol, im white and i understand Nas isnt to fond of white people but I use to listen to nas back in the illmatic, stillmatic days and i have to say hes the realest rapper out. He still talks about poor and isnt to flashy about his money.

[RishiP85]

dope dope movie....jus watched it again the other night

[SPIDERx144]

the hook sucks, but the lyrics tell so much

[USMCSC0UTSniper]

gucci mane aint listen to dis yet 

[StevXtreme]

This. Is why. The people enforcing such ideals. Will suffer and die.

[choob321]

Blood Diamond

[filmtress]

Kanye West's had his bottom row teeth replaced with diamonds. How sick is that?

[karandip90]

@filmtress so? I heard Sean Kingston has a dildo of diamond

[superstriker00]

We watched this video today in my history class, quite a bit going on here.

[komaneti0]

なんも言えねえ

[soundbwoiii123]

Dont think anyone could have suited this more, great song great film

This thing has to change!

[converseshoeboy]

when i heard this straight away i knew it was nas, i heard it on blood diamonds, such a deep track and his flow goes so god damn hard, nas ur a fuckin legend, this is what hip hop should be!!!

[H2Rapchannel]

New single : Nas feat The Game - Forget the Past in my channel

[yannickjg]

This is what hip hop its meant to be

[luzac159]

HAPPPY BIRTHDAY NAS!

[rj2478art]

damn this is so true this is real rap

[Haqster]

Fuck Diamonds. Just a rock anyway.

[Reqrezentin]

@Haqster

Solid Carbon actually

[joshuabrockit]

one of my mentors that is why i never will buy gold or jewlery

[mcpimp91]

nas is such a godlike rapper whenever he touches the mic he spitts the truth..........true legend.........and Blood Diamond is a great movie

[thirstyyet]

for economics to do with our summer reading "along way gone, memoirs of a boy soldier" we compared the song to the book and its amazing how much is in the song lirics if you go line by line which i highly recomend!

[YoBludclart]

check my channel for real hip hop compilation!!! worth watching !!

[FlashTheK]

Man that's more than real hip hop, this is the real life.

Nas has 100% right.

[kagwun]

Found a VIDEO Better than this...... Kayos - Bloody Everyday

[ajfoundation11]

ok between Nas and Lil Wayne who do you think is a true Hip Hop icon with meaning I think its Nas what do you guys think

[eriktheboss55]

@ajfoundation11 Lil Wayne isnt any competition to nas......Nas is a billion times better

[TeachMehDoug]

@eriktheboss55 and what makes nas better than him is nas writes raps about issues that matter, shine on em, i can, hate me now ect...

[xXxRazor51xXx]

@eriktheboss55 Only a billion?!?!?

[Omega3AcidCF]

@eriktheboss55 which makes me wonder why I didn't know about Nas before watching Blood Diamond for the first time

[bingocas]

oh man i want fucking diamonds im crazy about theme shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiit

[wazo1982]

@mart2531 couldnt of put it betta myself bro , nas is the streets disciple , nuff sed .. peace

[cezzaroo1]

i love this song because its so relevent, im not a big fan of rap i only realy like Eminem but as i understand what he's talking about and it realy does have a good reason behind it i do think its very very good

[Black7venshit]

I'm a fan of this madafaka Rap, rap is negro like me till I die and Nas 4 ever

[mart2531]

lol they say lil wayne is the best rapper alive, lol remember one thing u stupid dumb fucks nas is alive, wayne can suck my dick period. nas is the best rapper to ever spit, better then pac, better then big, the best rapper ever in history goes to nas period......... wayne, drake, soljaboy,50cent, we all know ur rich its getting pretty fucking old thinjk about something else to rp about u untalented pussys..

[jmz1127]

@mart2531 truth

[PR1M3T1M308]

@mart2531 ok why would people like this three ttimes? tupac and biggie were better. nas is goos like reall good. but tupac and big are better you fucker. and drake and these other rappers have talent but dont have the flow and lyrics to the songs

[RocnRed9]

@PR1M3T1M308 People would like this because they appreciate good music. Also tupac and big are very overrated in my opinion and how could you say big is better when he only released two albums? Oh yea and how could drake have talent but not have the flow and lyrics? That makes absolutely no sense..

[ThumbsUpMike]

@PR1M3T1M308 actually biggie and pac were not better

they were commercially better

Nas is the best MC to ever live.....MC is all about lyrical skill!

tupac said himself nas was the better lyricist...every fkn hip hop fan knows nas is the best lyricist and thats the truth!

if you dont believe me......then i think you should listen to Illmatic and It was written fully and if you have, do it over again and do some homework on the best MC to ever live

[NastyNasRules]

@ThumbsUpMike true that

[smallbrawl]

@mart2531 you cant put nas on top, there are better than him. biggie smalls and 2pac still for the throne

[Capazino]

@mart2531

lil wayne best rapper alive naaaahhh

[murph277v]

[KaJMoll]

Ownage song + Blood Diamonds is a wonderfull MOVIE.

[alibuu]

is the singing at the end a song or just a part of this song?

[MrRubytuesday1000]

this is what you call music man!!!! nas rocks

[x0nikki130x]

i cant find this download anywhereee for freee

[VENEREALfunzone]

@x0nikki130x The song is on the single Can't Forget About You for the Hip Hop Is Dead album.

[PeterLeNigerian]

This song & video reminds of Little Weapon by Lupe and Diamonds from Sierra Leone by Kanye. Almost like a mix of them.

[ysmm92]

@PeterLeNigerian Lupes version of Diamonds from.. was a lot better than Kanyes. It's called conflict diamonds

[MCSmithishh]

@PeterLeNigerian

Word up!

[Julyx3Lisa]

(Y) great!

[assyrianminichiello]

my favourite nas rap

[jera3]

[rainbow1892]

[BigBellyBashAsh]

SuchAGoodSongMorRapperzShudSin­g

MorBoutPovertyAidsNdChildSoldi­erzzz

[stallionspride]

so mad, everybody wants heaven but no body want dead.. everybody wants diamonds without the bloodshed :)< Dude the movie is just as good as the song ^^

[ChristinoMark]

how come i never herd this on the music stations or BET?

[THErealTCO]

its toooo cruel for our nice and ignorant world

[ekcoupe756]

@ChristinoMark because bet is wack they show nothing but wack ass rapper lol

[SugarSigur]

@ChristinoMark hmmm...I wonder...

[ThumbsUpMike]

@ChristinoMark Cuz it doesnt make you stupid....there's actual intelligence in the song which is forbidden

[GloBallCollab]

@ChristinoMark you will never hear this on BET or Radio is because this is HipHop - not rap !!

hip hop comes from the soul, this song is real.. good lookin on the comment tho man!

[charlita25]

@ChristinoMark okay I was just thinking the same thing

[metallicat67]

@ChristinoMark because it's not mainstream garbage.

[famous1005]

@ChristinoMark idk u tell me

[Tirlp]

wait aint the scenes from the movie Blood Diamonds? cause i remembered those parts in the movie

[DopesMe]

@Tirlp  it´s part of the soundtrack!

[faby77360]

@Tirlp because the song comes with the movie that's simple no ?

[Hunteress90]

The movie and song is so true. Im not a fan of rap, but this song has meaning.

[BRADKI1LA]

I know right!!?!?!??!?!

[ysmm92]

@Hunteress90 rap has meaning. true rap has meaning. the genres just been polluted by your 50 Cents, Lil Waynes and Soulja Boys... Underground and old school, thats where the real rap is.

[smallbrawl]

@Hunteress90 most of the ol skool rap songs are legit and this comin from a hard core rock fan

[SneakyButhole]

@Hunteress90 I wasn't a fan of rap but I've been converted because of meaningful songs like this. U should check out 'Purple' by Nas; 'You Never Know' and 'Dance With the Devil' both by Immortal Technique; or 'Trail of Lies' by Jedi Mind Tricks

[matausis1993]

@Hunteress90 every rap song has a meaning. 

[superTarikP]

@Hunteress90 so its like every other nas song?

[TheNadyanice]

@Hunteress90 absolutly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[AmaruAgent]

@Hunteress90

Cool comment. Nas brings a lot of songs like this...

[xxxlekyxxx]

the movie, how's it called

[DonFler]

@xxxlekyxxx It's called Blood Diamond!

[thehiprockermon]

I love this song and movie. So True!

[3xMetal4Lifex3]

great movie

[3xMetal4Lifex3]

awesome fucking song

[Easterknight2461]

Nas is 1 of the best rappers of all time next 2 Rakim, Eminem, Immortal Technique, Big Daddy Kane, & 2Pac and this is definitley atleast 1 of his top 20 best songs

[crazytuber3000]

its a DOG EAT DOG WORLD lol

that movie blood diamond was dope

woop woop

[GameTeve]

I guess it's a dope song with message, but to be honest, doesn't Nas himself have a really big diamond chain around his neck? Someone explain this, is he a hypocrite?

[FableTv]

@GameTeve in the lyrics for this song if you actually listen to them he says "it makes me feel embarrassed, i have this ice on my neck" or something along those lines

[3xMetal4Lifex3]

@FableTv And this thing has to change, feelin' half-ashamed

As I rap with my Platinum chain............ that is what he say

[FableTv]

@3xMetal4Lifex3 aight thanks but my point is valid its not only black rappers who wear diamonds

[3xMetal4Lifex3]

@FableTv :)

[3xMetal4Lifex3]

he says platinum chain, not big diamond chain..........And this thing has to change, feelin' half-ashamed

As I rap with my Platinum chain

[MajesticMasters]

This vid made me want to give all my jewelry back and never buy a diamond again.

[Hydz2315]

am i the only one wondring why its mostly the black artists that go around with diamonds on all of their bodyparts like they are going to cover themselves in them? its not only the system, but people not caring about other people that make these problems last for too long...

[FableTv]

@Hydz2315 LMFAO....thats such bullshit you obviously dont know enough artists then maybe it seems that way to you because hip hop tends to be mainly populated by black americans?..i ensure you eminem, fat joe, immortal technique etc. all have diamonds too

[Hydz2315]

@FableTv immortal technique is against diamonds...he disses rappers that wear shiney chains...listen to his "adios Uncle Sam" and u might get ure facts right

[FableTv]

ok but the main point still remains

[Hydz2315]

@FableTv and my main question does too :P

[FableTv]

@hydz but eminem, fat joe etc. still wear diamonds??anyways its not anyones fault that they wear diamonds its just a fashion thing, education just needs to be supplied

[vivalache1]

by the way immortal technique was not in the song. it was that retart poison pen

[olderthenu]

DEEP SONG

[yenta]

In America, it's bling bling. But out here it's bling bang.

[Psych0Nix]

THIS IS REAL HIPHOP AND THIS IS NAS

[shadowkill64]

When I first heard this, I though it was by Ill Bill, very similar voices if you ask me.

[MiiSH3LL3]

@Psych0Nix

yu got it!

[a95man]

@Psych0Nix isn't that the same thing?

[TheFlex21]

@Psych0Nix

yes, it is real rap

I've been putting all the REAL rap I find into a playlist on my page, check it out

[qrj1991]

[KagomeSakuraChan]

[MrShakesify]

[mongokindHD]

word... the government should do something 'gainst the exploitation of men and especially children through work 'gainst the lobby.

how many famous person had said that?

[mattyraven3]

powerful.. well to me :)

[TheMangaFace]

Nas.....He's the one for Hip hop.!

My Fav emcee Hands down

[navigator772]

i hope this is gonna be on the distant relatives album, nas's lyrics n his flow is really on point.

[ElZebbElkebeer]

the beat is really hot,,,so is lyrics too.....but the beat is fire it won't make u stop listening

[MrColeClark]

Fuck on the beat! Use your brain and start thinking 'bout what he's talking about! This song has a message. If you want just pure beat listen to techno and shit...

[nesports90]

I luv this song and this movie.

[hokagealex]

[gravityhammer25]

[Lukass12]

BEST SONG FROM BLOOD DIAMOND

[ThumbsUpMike]

how the penis in a vagina does this only have fkn 500,000 something views?

this is too fucking nasty for that little! it needs 2 times the amount!

[AddeLovesHerBfs]

hey guys, what is he singing about ??? i can't understand it's 2 fast ! can u tell me? or tell me where i can find the lyrics ?!

[blade83336]

lyrics on demand

[TheeAsianFlava]

he's singing about conflict diamonds, this is the song from the movie blood diamond

[WestSideRunna213]

nas came correct on here man

[NJSTaT3OfMiND]

WUT IS THIS SONG FROM A MOVIE?

[vwiii]

This dude is the best period!. Nas is the best because he is a lethal combination of every great Emcee. Tupac, Biggie, Rakim, KRS-One, Kool G-Rap, = NAS. Nas embodies HIP HOP. Nas is the only rapper who could have declared HIP HOP IS DEAD because he is the greatest lyricist in the HISTORY of HIP HOP/RAP.

[BryaNNNNN456]

Year : 2000 1/5 of diamonds in America are blood diamonds.

Year : 2008 1/4 of diamonds in America are blood diamonds, USA contributes 3/5 of weapons in Africa. USA purchases or launders 75% of the worlds drugs. USA is 500 Billion dollars in debt to China and 13 Trillion dollars in debt as a nation. Also companies like Coca Cola, Nike, addidas, Dell, McDonalds, KFC, Hollister, Aberchrombie, most of American sold products, are made in other countries, for about 15% of what they are sold for.

[darkmanedlion]

Nas is the best period

[squarecnix]

that shit is so fucked up at 1:14..

[lolguyhahaha]

its is so f ed but i see it as reality after this vid wow

[darkmanedlion]

[Piotrasdabadman91]

war takes no prisoners...

[ssamuelalfred]

this is a great video... i am good fan of blood diamond movie.sam

[MeggZ91]

that shit is whack ...y dun ppl do fukin sum'n ...... y they gotta suffer...they should shine like nas said...

[5godzilla]

This is the proper version of blood from sierra leone, done by the proper lyricist, NAS.
