[420HAVEFUN]

[techchute13]

Geo!!!!!



[thablacksnow]

Beat, rap, show all just AMAZING!

[BRBgottaskate]

back when kanye was tollerable, but scholars shoulda headlined this show..

im somewhere in that front row. such a dope show

[JIBNINJA9]

wait?? bluescholars is opening for kanye?? ya should be the other way around!!

[DrunkenMasterSin78]

MABUHAY BLUE SCHOLARS!

[lemenaidtip]

wow... blue scholars really got the crowd movin' ..

[JustOnTheBrightside]

and look how many people are waving their hands... for real.

[JustOnTheBrightside]

the Scholars are legit. There's no one else like them. They don't rap a bunch of shit like Kanye.... people respect them, and they're amazing live.

[TheJupiterMan]

Sabzi should try to make a bad beat just to see if he can cause I don't think it's possible.

[okonomiyaki51]

@TheJupiterMan hahaha, I'm with ya man... Sabzi just needs to fuck it up at least once in his career...

[GnomeConstruction]

Dam this is crazy i was there, i was twelve years old i had never even heard these guys this was the first time now i listen to them everyday. this music truly changed my life northwest hip-hop is one of a kind and whats going on right now is fucking nuts. cant wait for the new album

[crunchypudding13]

@GnomeConstruction same here man, this concert changed the way i viewed the hip hop genre. gotta love local hip hop.

[EnjoicoolPanda]

I'm in the military, and nothing, no-body I work with -all the brats -don't know nothing about Blue Scholars. They seem oblivious, they don't feel it. And for that it makes me sad, like... am I the only fan? Is it just me, the DJ and MC, or what? Then I watch this video- blue scholars opening for Kanye -and I'm nothing less then inspired by the sea of waving arms and hands.

[pike024]

great live band - see them every chance you get!

[ggflet69]

kanye must have shit out auto tune

[Leeeeeeeeeeeeeee25]

damnnnnn blue scholars are hella good live. they had the whole crowd go "left right" lol

[bammass]

Damn I remember bein there; shit 4 years gos by quick. Watchin this all of a sudden it's throwback now... Straight up stole the show before that Gold Digger came on

[mrshorteepantz]

blue scholars has respect

this crowd shows that.

check out the sagaba video, look how many hands are bouncing up and down

[persiandaddy]

It would be funny if Kanye tried to get up after Blue Scholars and sing Love Lockdown. ;)

[Leeeeeeeeeeeeeee25]

thats so sick how all of the crowd was swinging there arms at the end

Blue Scholars are hella good

[benandreas369]

he did well at the glow in the dark tour... but Lupe destroyed Kanye lol.. Every tour Kanye is on, there is always someone better than him.

[dwood1592]

Damn it would've been tight to see this show.

[QuincyBMusic1]

ahaha vv YUP!!!!!

[mikeg9696]

hah kanye should have opened for the scholars instead of them opening for kanye :p.

[liilsaiint16]

yupp true dat

n kanye is not keeping hiphop alive in da mainstream his helping wayne killing it who agrees wit me =)

[samsaphone]

Nah, man - Kanye and Weezy can't kill hip-hop. Geo says it straight in "Southside Revival."

It's a southside revival, put your hands high, let your arms be the pillars that be holdin' up the sky

I heard a few heads say that hip-hop was dead, no it's not

It's just malnourished and underfed.

[DynmK]

i was here, i left before kanye got on

[Nels123]

true that, Kanye sucked ass at bumbershoot

[simsim48]

yeah he did

how do you suck an ass??:P hah

[yakamuci]

its an expression...and you can suck on an ass check but thats a whole nother story

[theoriginalmcsquare]

by being kanye

[maremaids]

I'm sorry but Kanye really has nothing on the scholars.

[onlinevideogamer]

i hear that

:D

[simsim48]

amen.

[benandreas369]

if i was kanye, I would be scared as fuck to perform... blue scholars are fucking amazing live.

[seatowwwn206]

SEATOWN SEATOWN SEATOWN SEATOWN

[bart6452]

you are all missing the point of the scholars:

find some love for one another's type of character. Diversity is a virtue we over look

[mindzdesign]

52nd bitch! REAL FRAT FAGS HOMAY!

[filipinohype]

Zantes, We All Know WSU Is For UW Rejects.

Get That Pullman Attitude Outta Heree.

UW = SEATTLE

WSU = FAGS, My Bad, I Mean Pullman.

Anywayss, Zantes Why You Listening To This Song Anyways, When Your Just Gonna Hate.

Peace,

Christian

[ashez721]

GEO GOT SUPER CROWD CONTROL!

[JayRythm]

Fuck Class, GET your education on the AVE.

[iloveu933]

The Ave is a cool area, but the idiot homeless juggalo kids make it bad.

[particletheory]

there all right, they'll just ask you for spare change everytime you walk by, but if you kick it withem' they will smoke you out

[UW2013]

is someone mad about gettinng rejected by UW?

[zantes1128]

they're making fun of all the students and frat guys at UW. If you guys are so smart, listen to the lyrics. Go Cougs.

[jkarhu]

You have no idea what you're talking about. You'll never find them hanging around Pullman.

[iMak01]

Zantes: Blue Scholars has no intention of makin fun of UW. If u read his bio he even attended UW back then and if you've had heard to the rest of his tracks he even advocates going to school & criticizes the corruption of school systems. In this song if You listen, he only criticizes the disreputable frats. He doesn't criticize UW at all. If YOU listen to this song it's all about bringing the Ave back coz he misses all the students & other peeps who used to hang out there. Listen to the lyrics.

[Yadammm]

shut up frat boy, you need to open your ears

[LuluBreKenzie]

YEAHHH BABE! THE AVE!

I love Blue Scholars... and I'm so going to UW.

fuck yeah, seattle's the way to GO!

[jkarhu]

If you like cold, wet, dark places!

[UW2013]

bubbles on the corner of 41st smell really bad..

[dddieselll]

[matt2534]

It's the main drag at U of Washington campus.

[friendmeph]

[Seattleman90]

If you want to see what he's talking about, head down to NE Seattle by UW: University Way NE. Bring a 40 or a blunt, or just buy one there...

[ibleedbeats]
