[UmbrellaAssassin01]

Screw Josh Bennett and Ben Alisuag, I'm here for Watsky. Well, I take back what I said about Alisuag. Because his name is Ali Swag.

[THE8KUJO]

Beautiful... Simply beautiful...

[Hellboy2468ify]

I love how theirs an asian, a black guy and a white guy. that's what i call a "fuck you" to racist people

[toma123456781]

@Hellboy2468ify yeah "fuck you" to racist people and mexicans

[mrhotness25]

"we don't live in your shadow,we grow in your shade..." gah, love watsky!

[evahooper123]

George Watsky is amazing. <3

[DRfromtheDR]

Thumbs up if you tried to sync the girls lips with annotation.

[Philipperodrigues]

"If you are the peak and we're rushes you've made, we don't live in your shadow, we grow in your shade" Amazing

[kingjames654]

Does anybody see a dislike bar, I don't.

[justmoijah]

What is this? I kinda like it.

[frankiss88]

that might have been the best speech to a rapper i have ever heard

[LeDrIsKilLz]

Thats wat i call a tough crowd

[SavantOnASpinet]

Joshua Bennett and George Watsky are Gods amongst men!

[95xXxdude]

wen they all speak at once it sounds like angerfist wen he uses digital voice sounds lol

[coxyomommasaid]

i remember i watched this on television and i finally found it after all this time

[DRfromtheDR]

that was epic

[BabyJewellsAFirework]

the dude in the middle has more of a lisp than watsky does! (oh btw im not hating i love lisps especially watsky's ;)

[FizzyWM]

I love this poem, but I gotta say... I'd be bored as hell if I were that age and listening to this. Just sayin'. I wouldn't understand the subtleties and the humour. All it would be to me is three guys on a stage talking at me. Perspective, people.

[QueenRox01]

I LOVE YOU WATSKY

Oh BTW i understnd the little girls were kinda rude, but think about. Their parents are famous. They probalydont spend enough time to teach their chilren proper manners like all others. Constatantly on the run. Theyre in this world with a silver spoon in their mouths so they dont know whats normal and of course their behavior isnt being punished because hey, They have better things to do than properly raise their children. Lets not blame the kids. Blame Poor Parenting.

[TheFatty2497]

His daughters look like little spoiled bitches. They show no appreciation for the fantastic performance dedicated to their father right in front of them. Why distract your father's gift to talk about who owns what? I'm sorry, but that's just wrong. Hopefully as they grow up, they learn to show courtesy and respect towards others. They can't even clap at the end! Pisses me off.

[super7174]

@TheFatty2497 Or maybe they're little girls. It's not that they don't appreciate it. They just want to go home and play with their dolls, mate. Try to find it in your heart to forgive two little girls for not appreciating very mature, intelligent, art. Of course they didn't clap. Mate, they only heard talking. They would have clapped for The Lion King. Not for poetry. Cheers.

[jappanese]

omg , if that is indeed what that kid said "daddy, mommy owns baby phat not you!"

What a *itch :( kinda disgusting, hope she evolves from such manors as all kids should..

[Liface]

@jappanese Relax. They're just kids. They can't hope to understand this brilliance, I guarantee they will watch this in 10 years and be moved to years.

[fukintrollable]

Why did the little girl try to check her nonexistent watch?

[earthquakeroats]

where's team rocket?

[wundermuffi]

Why the hell is watsky so damn good looking? it just isn't fair

[lovesmelovesher]

"daddy mommy owns baby phat...not you..." can someone say verbal bitch slap? I think so

[24lakerland]

that was crazy....good shit.

[kdavi16]

his daughters look stuck up and mean -____-

[faerieangeltaitai]

@kdavi16 They are. And their mom taught it to them. This isn't me trying to hate on Kimora, she SERIOUSLY did that.

[Tinderboxing]

@kdavi16 Your comment looks like you're judging someone based on something you do not know. They do not understand what the event is, or the significance. They are children, and they are around insecure people, so know that the parents will teach them what these men have spoken, because wisdom is not lost as long as it's understood and shared. Thank you for understanding.

[kdavi16]

@Tinderboxing thank you Dr. Phil .

[kiwi094eva]

@kdavi16 well, look at who their mother is lol

[talithaofvesna]

I just got goosebumps! <3

[welaughindoors91]

lol those two lil girls do. not. care.

[pakapakapaka]

@welaughindoors91 Can you really expect them to though. I don't even think they could comprehend the entire situation. Hell, at that age, I would look exactly the same. Its not like the know first hand what their father has done...its one thing to be told how something is, and its a totally different story experiencing it...

[welaughindoors91]

@pakapakapaka dude, it was a joke

[pakapakapaka]

@welaughindoors91 sorry? on the internet...sarcasm goes undetected.

[HCCMarine]

How do you dislike this? 7 retards in the world, i guess there are some out there after all.

[Urielbot]

wow

[tigerss100]

Yoga mogul xD

[MrMotocross43]

black people this days



[bravotvproductions]

those two kids looked pissed as hell during the whole performance

[killer7895123]

Wow, cool. He didn't even stand up.

[igitkitti]

"daddy, mommy owns Baby Phat, not you." LOLOL

[PhishyFishyFish]

@igitkitti That's all you noticed from this?

Fuck i hate america.

[TullyBuddy]

@PhishyFishyFish Pump the breeaaaaks!!

[Spliffyriferous]

We don't live in your shadow, we grow in your shade

[fazawood81]

Who is This guy he was on fox can some one tell me thx

[ihavetomanyprobs]

@fazawood81 russel simmons? hes the one that made deaf poetry what it is today. look him up hes changed alota lives for the better

[snilloc72]

@jdubbs5569 to bad you can't reverse that statement right? lol bcoz rappers are not (always) true poets.

[VocalSammy]

@Crochetingtakesballs That's a negative, gwatsky is amazing yes, but the other two poets are definitely remarkable as well. You obviously haven't heard other poems of theirs.

[HaLo3GoDs21]

this makes me wanna be a poet

[munkypoo91]

Those kids were confused as hell for 2:39 seconds

[sporkgirl32c]

Daddy, Mommy owns Baby Phat, not you!

[jdubbs5569]

poets are true rappers

[VietFuckers]

PLZ MAKE MORE VIDEOS !!! :(

[KraftTV]

I'm new to this style of poetry but .. is it me.. or are the other two just ripping off Watsky's style? Unless he wrote it all and they helped perform it?

[Iadiesman2I7]

@KraftTV Nah, if you watch one of Joshua Bennetts older videos he says the "Left to right, check" bit, so he re-used that, so i'd assume that they all worked together? But i'm just guessing :)

[hatorigirl1202]

@KraftTV Nah. This isn't strictly a Watsky style jam. I think at some point he mentioned this and said he was a back up when the original person couldn't do it. I feel like he did put his own spin on his part though.

[nate51593]

@KraftTV no no lol they're not ripping his style some of these lines were recycled lines from their own poems and josh and watsky are both winners of the BNV spoken word competition so they're all amazing.

[Brahmanfire]

@KraftTV Poetry slams go back at least 40 years from what I know, and there has come with it many different but unique cadences to go with the spoken word, none of them is copying each other. They're all copying a cadence for delivering poetry that was around either before or right around when they were born.

[LibraBoo32]

This joint still rock I love it

[HisRoyalJaznness]

i remember seein this

[angeep2012]

Yoga Mogul. Haha

[desde11]

[SMURF1272003]

[IrishEyedBoy]

[dux14]

You look so much like david henrie!

[hatorigirl1202]

@dux14 At least that's a closer comparison than all the losers that claim he looks like Michael Cera.

[Liface]

This is incredibly touching. 

[MsSarcasticAss]

(((CHILLS)))

[MesiahPoet]

J Bennet just rips this up..

[bigandrew222]

Wow, she's only a child, but his daughter's kind of a bitch, no?

[misslilee]

loooovelovelovelove Ben and Josh <3 their other works are amazing too

[mattknow]

It's great to see you three together. Definitely three of the most talented poets of our generation. Great tribute to a great mind.

[Crystalom3]

I saw this last year,it was sooo Good!

[awesommeness]

that was just absolutely amazing!

[Musicloverlife1]

First off, I'm not a big hip hop fan. I for one love rock music. But "I write because I don't have the body type to fist fight," and yet I love George Watsky, and I love poetry.

[PrincessNicolee]

i love josh .

[NerdyChick15]

COURTLANELLIOT,

[happyattacks]

[afonze30]

@happyattacks hmmm, it's not just the hip hop community, that's so simple.....it the "stage".

[thomasconnor97]

@happyattacks lmfao, your comment censorship made me giggle.

FUCK! If I was Russell Simmons i'd be HELLA honored.

[Wyleisha]

this made me think... so this year instead of def poetry they did brave new voices are they going to keep doing that and no more def poetry either one is amazing but i was pretty much just wondering which one is coming back next year....

[Teressssaaaaa]

"we dont live in your shadow, we grow in your shade." beautiful.

[eggrollrocks]

[Koribaby1]

[sli2305]
