[TheMerk87]

To the girl who broke my heart...Fuck you.

[Psycosocial100]

@TheMerk87 you should listen to fuck you luck by atmosphere

[yubia2011]

We should have this playing on the radio instead of wack ass rappers we have now .

[Laurentinio1]

[RiftRaft123]

I'm like here right now lol. But got to pull that cellular device and be on to the next 1 hahahaha

[PurpleHaze1824]

Real shit, Def one of the dopest niggas around.

Can't even call him a rapper really, especially when you hear shit like "Roses" or "Pistola" off Ecstatic, you see this niggas shit is just on a whole different plane, dude an artist if anything.

Mos Def'll never be main stream because you gotta listen to dig it, this shit not for dumb niggas.

Search Eddie Pesos "Greatness" Puerto Rock kid from PA, I guarantee y'all wont be dissapointed.

[Kunaimaster1000]

Lets forget about mentioning all those fake and extremely low skilled rappers.Thats why we aare listening to real skilled rappers.These people actually make sense and have real skill.So no more of that and just listen to the real artist.and p.s. ELVIS WAS RACIST!

[MrRodo28]

Lil wayne is an action figure which gets solds, LOTS, he was based on this living hip hop superhero

[hello120494]

ahhh Mos putting on a clinic! Lil wayne take notes haha

[drkthms7]

@hello120494

this is way over lil wynes head

[Vvitchmaster]

@hello120494 arghhh  two Turn Tables.....made his Mama rock

[camflint72]

@hello120494 lil wayne can;t even spell notes with his bum ass......smh

[RitualisticSuicide]

[RitualisticSuicide]

MOS DEF.....most definitely delivers....the plurals and singulars he spits are fantastic...

[MrEvitcartta]

If this is off True Magic why you got Black on Both sides album cover as pic?

[SunKissedTears]

I instantly fell in love with this song.

[vivalasosaTV]

Mos Def - Beauty in the Dark (Music video by SOSA REAL)

[slikplaya]

[onBACKWARDS]

[ProfessorJayVenom]

Black on Both Sides- great album

[ameldeblac]

damn...

[OooR3ooO]

OMFG, HE IS JESUS!

[Insane0industry]

@OooR3ooO if he is.. why would he use the word ''nigger''.. like allmost all black people still use that word ?

Nigger is a slave name.. nigger is the name black people had when slavery was legal.. givin to them by white people.

So can somebody please explain to me.. why black people call themselfs and eachother slaves ?

[OooR3ooO]

@Insane0industry people sometimes do unexpected things,

[johneblaze27]

@Insane0industry nigger and nigga are two different words. nigger were the people getting hung by ropes around thier neck, niggas are the ones wearing gold ropes around there neck

[Laidbizzle]

@johneblaze27 Words of Pac

[kmax1223]

This has to be one of Mos' most powerful songs. You can feel the emotion in your bones.

[optimum2008]

im feeling it def

[cartoonistkid001]

Went from "we gonna conquer it all" to "nigga I'ma see you in court!" I would've never thought, I guess I better think again. Ok, now this shit is really sinking in. We ain't just divorced we ain't even fucking friends cause in the end it was all about the ends.

[sunniebaybee]

I can't believe it, this fucker got me weepin' , I keep it a secret so my friends won't peep it .

[remmy100]

Even as a lover of metal music, I can gets down with this beat.

[Ievolovel]

@remmy100 Same man. If you don't listen to them already check out Edan, Aesop Rock, and Mr. Lif. You will discover a few more insane lyricists through them like Akrobatik and Insight and many many more from songs they coop on. Melt down polar caps with solar raps.

[reesedaddy80]

I like this song

[Hiroshithelion]

so smooth sooooo smooth just like water son.

[webtexintotheblue]

[Niggazhou263]

[pat61778]

This song is mad dope!! That's some real ish he spittin!! Reminds me of me and my ex of 11 years. My fav part is: But late in the evening I'm up, my chest heaving I'm reaching in the dark and I'm looking for the reason (WHY!) Did our love have to die? You and I were so fucking fly Can't get it off my mind The things that made me smile now make me cry You are the one You're the one! FUCK YOU!!

[WithLoveFromKay]

I'm too deep in the road now

Got me pulling over getting smoked out

Fighting tears that I can't hold down

Can't believe it, this fucka's got me weeping

I keep it a secret so my friends won't peep it (live man?)

But late in the evening I'm up, my chest heaving

I'm reaching in the dark and I'm looking for the reason

[Ginga]

@WithLoveFromKay \

[ulydadon]

hip hop isnt dead, hes only a bit stinky

[LadySunshine111]

Mos is a great MC. What's the difference between a Rapper and an MC, you ask? Well if you have to ask then I can understand why u are incapable of see this blk man as a poineer and non-conformist.....intellegent and out the box......

[SizzleStep]

At least we know that there are people out there that think like us..  Real Music for this fucked up world

[SizzleStep]

@fatboybs yo my nigga das some real shit , I listen hiim big L, Nas, ect.

[Ginga]

Chill track. My favorite on the album so far. 

[AROnE87]

wonder how the video woulda looked like, if it got the respect it deserves.

[inklove878]

We used to listen to this song alot....now were in it. What a waste.

[THESAXONKID1]

u know what i think another problem is the fact every time i put 1 of these videos on theres people goin on about how fuked the scene is stop whinin we know it is and that mos def is sik and all that and lil wayne is shit, we know were not children i dnt need u 2 tell me about hip hop and whats wrong with it aslong as theres you tube u can find what u wanna listen 2 who cares if normal society dnt know shit real hip hop heads r still gonna make good music regardless

[qbone20]

Shit, my nigga Mos ripped this shit.

[ly2rics]

Other brothers just don't know

You got to feel me on this one man

So real

I'm so sin-serious about it, you know?

So much more than a few (fa-really real)

So much more (on the really real!)

[CurvyKittenGoddess03]

[guerilla619]

[ROCKSTAR1ERIE]

[bishopwarrior83]

what album is this from?

[jeffkoenig79]

@bishopwarrior83 True Magic

[beans89313]

everyone check out shad k from canada hes up there with mos, common. etc

[DuleSBKG]

Hey Guys Im From Serbia and I always Listen to Gang Starr,Nas,Jeru the Damaja,Mos Def etc.Mos Def is World Wide But he came by the underground passage. ;)

[paperorpaper]

Is this song about his ex-wife (Alana Wyatt)?

[MILLSPRO123]

yea man music getting real gimmicky man!! why are they feedin us that crap!?? i aint eatin it tho.... COME LISTEN TO MY BEATS!! peace!!

[remmy100]

wow, just now started listening to mos def for about 2 hours. already almost finished writhing a new song. some reason, he makes me remember how much I love meaningful music.

[jbtid]

underground rappers like mos are under rated

[jbtid]

this my fav rapper

[abovedalimit46]

How can not like this? I like it first because of the lyrical content, you know, how he tells a story so fluently and the beat, which is mostly what catches people's attention, is only there to accentuate and put meaning behind what he's saying.

[bnreal800]

mos a beast...

[AffableBalloonist]

lol Mos Def always makes me laugh with his lyrics..WHY? because he is so real and I can relate! REAL

[Dezyur]

my fav rapper...get it Mos

[moneyoverbitches949]

lupe? jhajja

[2010MissCooper]

Why is Young money even in the charts. All i can hear is lil-waynes auto tuned voice blasting out of my friends headfones. They dont understand underground/Real hip-hop. Some people need to wake the fuck up & realise that there is people with pure talent in this world who arn't recognised.

Not only hip-hop but all genres if music. The brainwashed public are either stupid & dumb or delusional

[KingVirmire]

this amazing peice of music has < 100,000 views. while Lady Boy Gaga has over 180,000,000 views. WTF is wrong wit society!?

[dajam1999]

@KingVirmire it boggles my mind too... damn shame
