  • dhat ghull so gud

  • Anyone still got the original version of College Dropout, the one that leaked before the retail one came out? I wanna listen to it. :<

  • @TheRappingIcon same here, please pm me if some one already linked you :P

  • @ttoe Lauryn Hill retard? She is one of greatest female mc's ever.

  • @drapera03 wordd

  • why the hell does there always have to be some retard yelling over this stuff?

  • Thats not all he lost, he need Jesus

  • Lauryn sounds weird on this.

  • @smthcmnl it's because they cut a sample of her song...so it's not matched up to the right tempo (speed)

  • @STiprincess oo I see

  • I love lauryn hill but I think the other version is better

  • @jrsunolan yea cus his voice aint as deep in the other one and flow is more smooth

  • i prefer the other version but i love the mystery of iniquity

  • i preferred syleena johnson on the final version to lauryn

  • where the fuck did you go, kanye?

  • thankfully this wasn't the final version, kanye puts no emotions in this version.

  • kanye's smart to use a sample from lauryn's album. she's UH-MAZ-ING i love her.

  • Lauryn Hill is better then the person they sued for the finished version but the beat for the finished version was better also

  • To the 10 Taylor Swift Fans who clicked "Dislike" Get Over it, and while you're at it eat a dick.

  • he couldn't get permission from them to use the sample so he got Syleena Johnson to sing it. personally i like the album version better. i think he just did the mix better. although i love Lauryn Hill

  • laurn hill is amazin

  • I like this version alot more sounds more authentic and soulfull

  • what mix tape is this from?

  • @RustySacks its not from a mixtape..

  • @TheWop4life word

  • @RustySacks Freshman Adjustment

  • @RobBrown65 word, thanks bro!

  • I love lauryn hill's verison her voice is so UNIQUE & PASSIONATE

  • on the original song i think he had some issues with getting lauryn hills voice from the execs so he had Syleena J to sing it, OR he just liked syleenas voice for that specific song

  • Lauryn...beautiful inside and out.

  • ITS NOT OLD KANYE. Its just the Ryhmfest used to write for him, so it was more concious. He didnt change. He just started writing for himself.

  • @SexyBrown213 When did Rhymefest write for him? Like does it say so on a video or somthing how did you find out

  • @XaviorEnt Old interviews on WSHH and he even pokes at it in "Barry Bonds" and some other songs of late registration and the dropout.

  • @XaviorEnt Jesus Walks was a Rhymefest song

  • I am glad he didn't get permission. Allowing him to spoil that song with this vulgar, ignorant, tool of the enemy would have been a sin. This is what she was speaking out against on the song Freedom Time. Lauren, stay real with THE truth, as He loves His-self as His word to be shared. Kanye, listen to more Lauren, and not only get back to the old you, but find the you that you could be, just like Lauren. She was so talented back in the day, but was filled with hate, and not motivated by love.

  • Thats Lauryn Hill Singing? I Feel Soo Dumb After All Dis Time Wtf.

  • @AyeeLexx And me.

  • @AyeeLexx Dont feel dumb, Syleena Johnson sang on the track you probable been listening to for years lol. This wasn't the version on the album. Listen to Lauryn Hill "Mystery of Iniquity".....real poetry

  • @AyeeLexx WOW lol

  • @AyeeLexx Its lauryn hill singing here but on his album its syleena johnson :O)

  • Woooowww!!!! Lauryn Hill & Kanye West....

  • Fuck Babylon. The tribes join and it all falls down!

  • where can i download this

  • @loxymandles then get your sorry ass off the page hater

  • @garv24 IKR, STFU OR GTFO

  • I liked the freshman adjustment, college drop out Kayne before he started using auto-tuning.

  • What happened between now and then, where SHAWTY LOW SHAWTY LEAN could have devolved out of socially-conscious hip-hop like this? A great beat, a great singer and a great message. Ironic as it may be, at least from what I hear on KISS FM now, Eminem is the only rapper who's rapping about anything still real. Let's get more Kanye on the airwaves...Kanye like this.

  • I mad they replaced Lauryn! Little did they know the deeper message she brought to this song only by her voice. SMH

    I guess they thought the other girl woulda made it more "mainstream".

    ugh.

  • @comeoneover01 No. Lauren Hill is mainstream. Selenna Johnson is basically an unknown. Hill on the song would've made it a much bigger hit.

  • @comeoneover01 no they couldnt get lauren hills permission to use her on the song so they had to get somebody else to sing the chorus

  • @comeoneover01 It would be dope to hear a true version of this where Lauryn was brought in as a legit feature. But still, I think Syleena Johnson did the song justice.

  • Thanks the sound quality is awesome!

  • THIS COLABORATION NEEDS TO HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I THINK KANYE WOULD BLAZE LAURYNN OUT"HE MAKE THE BEATS SHE BRINGS THE SOUL IT COULD BE SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!IF THEY BOTH DEDICATED 1 YEAR TO A DOPE ALBUM IT WOULD BE EPIC!!!!!!!

  • @acu1inamillion They recorded a couple of songs together back in 04 but nothing was ever leaked or released, Maybe 1day we'll hear them.

  • Can you name me anyone that is the opposite of him in all ways, that is not full of themselves, You have to give it to this man. No matter, look back at your history, or what about what happen to Rick James during a award. We all are full of somethink!

  • I hate that fucking DJ in this.

  • lauryn i love ur music

  • this shit is hot

  • nota 1000

  • "we all self-conscience, i'm just the 1st to admit it"

  • I like the second version with Syleena.

  • @holyo34 Credit to Sylveena she sounded sick but this would have just put icing on the cake

  • @DRaSTiK1979 Well if you can get her on the song, absolutely. But Syleena killed it and jus the way she sang it was amazing.

  • "Couldn't afford a car so she named her daughter Alexis" Fuck that was sick... I remember hearing through the wire and thinking Kanye is sick but he is whack now.. what happened to Kanye ?

  • kanye fell the fuck off for real.. now this nigga looks at himself in the mirror all day and tells himself how cute he is.

  • yeah kanye used to be awsome but now he sucks. the day he starts rappin again and not singing i'll be a kanye fan once again

  • love it.kanye please find the real essence of you....we need that back!!!

  • zurii, with you ALL the way. Kanye, come back with the tight lyrics you started with. This is just on of your many masterpieces. College Dropout stayed in my rotation since it came out. I miss you Kanye. Come back from Hollywood!

  • @zurii i think a beautiful soulfoul down to earth woman like lauryn could bring us back the kanye wee miss

  • @zurii he still has it, but you know how hard it is to show all of that with the media making him look bad. People need to go straight to the source and listen to his words instead of being lazy and letting moronic news feed lying. Who do you think knows more about Kanye? Kanye or the media?

  • man I miss early Kanye he ain't been the same since he lost his mother but hey its understandable I lost my mother to

  • Its true once you lose the person that you look up to and want them to be proud of you, you become very empty. its very easy to lose purpose in life.

  • @natedoug420 Everything Kanye has done was great, but I remember feeling htat he was just the truth with TCD. I used to play that whole CD back and forth all day long. And this was my favorite song because it's so true and he HAD THE BALLS TO SAY what a lot of black folk know about our community but like to gloss over. I lost my mother in 2003 and I lost my way so I know what that's like but I know Kanye will be alright.

  • @HipHop4lyfeallday That's why I don't judge the brother. people don't understand unless they have been there. I have my mom but I watch my mom and dad bury their parents and it's heartbreaking. Peace!

  • @HipHop4lyfeallday same here. I write music but after I lost my mother, my music took a dark turn. It is better, in my opinion, but my music has a darkness to it now.

    when it used t be kind of mellow.

  • this is poppin!!! like for real and he shud have lauryn rap on it.. it would have been the icing on the cake

  • woow i love lauryn

  • wow...that would of Definately made a difference...

    but "Syleena" sounds exactly like her in AllFallsDown...

    iThought it was actually LaurynHill this whole time

  • I like Johnson's voice, it sounds more 70s.

  • Lauryn i luuvvv yu!!!!

  • I <3 Lauryn's voice. This song is just sooo chill.

  • great song but he needs to work on his breath control anyway this is a great track regardless

  • I luv Lauryn on this track.

  • i think its big mike lol in the beginning

  • Yo I cannot stand the random fat guy thats always fuckin up a song and it can't be any song it has to be a decent one like this........damn him!!!!!!!!

  • i think that random guy's voice in the beginning ruins every song

  • Yes- THANK YOU.

    It is pointless and stupid. Dude saying random crap, who cares?  Shut up and stop ruining the damn song, haha

  • anyone know where the bass is sampled from? chappelle has a more expanded version of the bassline as his intro music for killing them softly and it's SO dope. been trying to hunt it down since

  • until 2day i realized some recent songs i hav heard and dwnlded all had lauryn hill i it i brly got assigned the song Little drummer boy and i payed attention to the artist then i searchd her on youtube then i found out thes songs i had recently downloaded a day agohad her (i didnt pay attention to the artists b4) Turn THe Lights Down

    THis song

    Little Drummer Boy

    (I head this song a long time ago though) Killing me softly

  • Love Kanye!! He's the best!!!

  • Kanye is a douche but Lauryn Hill is a sexy, soulful woman. Love this song.

  • People need to shut up with the racist comments....If your not a Lauryn Fan then just remove yourself from this video!

  • st8, but so wat we all make some racial comment at one point or another. she is human she has feelings and any one ready enough history, about war and savery, no matter ur race u r going to get up and say something racial. am sure if she said sumthing about a jew and a penny most ppl would crack up,

    yow TUSH y do ppl who are not fans always seem to be checking out ppl they dont like.

  • I'm no Kanye fan, but I can't deny the on-point lyrics here.

    I like this original beat and the original Sample's slight off-time.

  • Lauryn Hill Could Really be a Model..She is Beautiful! Ms.Hill you represent us Chocolate Sistas Very Well..Thank You! ;)

  • y wasnt this verion used

  • "SINGLE BLACK FEMALE!!" That's sayin ALOT!!!... this song is so real!

  • Why do we assume that because a person is different that they are crazy? You never really know anyones story unless you have walked in their shoes. I prefer the Lauryn Hill version to Syleena Johnson

  • i miss the old lauryn and the old kanye too. its effed up. they both crazy now. Kanye's the new lauryn walkin around in a daze. Pretty soon he's going to disappear and the same ppl who've been sayin he needs to go away will be the ones wishing he was back. I miss him so much and im sorry the fame ruined his spirit. Kanye's letting the illuminati take his sanity, it already took his mother. and whoever said lauryn hill used to be pretty needs to wake up. she's STILL BEAUTIFUL just in a daze

  • wtf? you're blaming Ms. Donda's death on the Illuminati?

    Illuminati is real, but I think most of it's power is what we give it!!

  • of course the illuminati didnt physically go kill his mom. the fame and all that did. If she were never in all this hollywood crap she wouldnt have died like that. I'd respect her death more if it wasnt in vain. But anyways. What do you think Kanye is talking about on 808s and heartbreaks? I forget the names of the songs but he's talking her death so yea wtf back to you tho boo. and also Kanye's even talked about how the fame is taking his sanity..I meant moreso the fame not the illuminati

  • point taken... now let's calm our asses down, shall we?!

  • lol who got upset?

  • you

  • no i didnt...maybe you thought i did but i didnt. Anyways. :)

  • I actually prefer the Syleena Johnson version.

  • I know what you mean... Syleena's Johnson's version is tight.

    But you gotta remember that Lauryn's version was a raw, live version... extremely raw so tey at some point, she was crying on stage.

    Syleena's version is processed.

  • I miss the old Lauryn and the old Kanye.They were some of the last few rappers that had songs that made since.

  • couldnt agree more m8. Old Kanye was quality and nowadays he distortes hes voice on every song ridiculously! he should be thinking more jesus walks and less supercrappynova

  • check out the remix ft vicky chand its hott!!

  • Comment removed

  • Lauren used to be so beautiful until the Illuminatic force drove her half crazy!! If you dont know what im talking about peep her performance on def poetry jam!

  • Do you have a link?

  • no i dont i think i was watching "the industry" series,and thats where i got it from but you can watch the original vid,just type in lauren hill def poetry jam.

  • Lauryn Hill made a good as hook from Mystery of Iniquity.

  • that comment is really from chay100 my sister but i was signed into mine for a long time!! so it was left by chay100 dats her youtube!!

  • i kno damn well dat is lauryn hill but anyways love dis song i had it in my head for so long then i forgot it when i was ready to search it lolz but yea i found it rryte u kno i was tyte. it all falls downnnn** nice sonqq

  • This is so beautiful...I am in tears. WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM!?

  • that aint lauren hill at all on nun of them!!!

  • dude you're stupid thats so lauryn her voice is so distinct! u obviously dont know and just talkin out ya ass b. its ok though..ignorance is bliss lol!

  • this is the kanye I used to like, the one who kept it real and talked about shit we could relate..too...too bad he gave into something he wasn't destined to be!

  • what u know about destiny homie?? he sold millions obviously doin his thing so how else u wanted him to do it? what did he give in to? sample base hip hop like no other artist has done.. ever..

  • Lauryn Hill is fucking crazy.

    Just like most other geniuses.

  • i like lauryn hills version but peoples let peoples have their own opinion with out negativing them, if they like syleenas version let them be.

  • I love this song.

  • Syleena Johnson's version is better IMO. Hopefully I can be entitled to have an opinion without being attacked by a mob of angry Lauryn fans.

  • no you may not...

  • My people. Catch It and I hope that YOU do.  It's ALL REAL.

  • damn lauryn .... iam bout to shead a tear 4 ya grl..i luv ya..damn she so damn real..where da fuk u b at..iam mad as h3ll..cum bak..cuz i wana b da nxt lauryn babi..lol.

  • LAURYN HILL IS THE TRUTH!

  • i love lauryn hil her version is by far wayyyyyyyyy betta!!!!!!!!!!

  • the guitarist and saxophonist are crazy!!! does anyone know if they play with lauryn hill all the time? or the band's name? if u listen to jay-z's comments and kanye's they happen when the band gets it!!

  • i love dis track i can realte 2 it

  • I like this version better, Lauryn Hill's voice is beautiful

  • Love that song.

  • LAURYN GO!! kanye ok

  • her voice is just so amazing love it

  • i know rite

  • God!

    I don't know if it has anything to do with it sounding like Kanye was yelling and screaming into the mic for the album version, but doesn't Kanye's voice sound different?

    His voice seems to have really changed. I guess he probably recorded this version before the car accident.

  • Lauryn Hill is better but hell not on this song

  • its her song idiot

  • Lauryn Hill is better than Sylenna Johnson thats what the hell i'm saying so shut the f*ck up

  • love it

  • I love Lauryn Hill but Syleena Johnson or w.e her name is sounds way better for this song

  • what the fuck are those dudes screaming 'Oh man...Kanye west....lauryn hill'...?!?!...

    many songs bring these kind of things but I don't think it's oficial....

  • Man Lauryn's broke :( :(

    Now she got five kids, how she gon take care of 'em and put food in all those mouths! :(

  • What you talking about, you don't live with her, you don't know what she got!!!

  • Gotta love Lauryn!

  • i like the other 1 betta, dis stil gd

  • Amo Lauryn!!!!!

  • Actually Lauren Hill never got back to him so he had to get someone else to sing it. She later agreed to let him use it, so I guess he leaked it or whatever. Better than the original.

  • "Keep that part where I run out of breath" Kanye is so ill. And Lauryn, well...

  • Comment removed

  • Fame can bring out the fool in one - i like Kanye as an artist too but D over-the-top fashion & the superficial nature he has been displaying? he's LOST,maybe he needs 2 go 2 Africa & go 'down to earth' & C some real down 2 earth people - cos our western system - everyone is wearin a mask, well to some extent - our system sucks! shitty captilist system - feed the rich -starve the poor - people NOW complain about struggling durin recession? wat bout the people who were ALREADY SUFFERING?

  • i hear that, i wish artists today who have the power would be more socially active like john lennon was.

  • Sick track.

  • miss her.

  • Is it just me or is Kanye kind of a boujie ass hole now?

    Don't get me wrong, I love this song and Kanye, but lately he's lookin' a little ridiculous.

    "The prettiest people do the ugliest things"

  • I second that. But, I'm guessing he's just going through some things...at least that's what I hope.

  • Yeah I hope so too.

  • i like kayne's older stuff better than his new stuff.

  • hell yeeaaaaaaaaa

  • His new stuff is rubbish.

  • !!! Get it here !!!

  • I miss this music time and the 90s...

    Too much autotune abuse these days where is music at!
