[Monkeyman5550]

[1192happyman]

Love this beat n rhythm, so cool.

[IgorSavtchenko]

Doug E. Fresh makes life beautiful.

[ThaKidFrankiee]

666,387 vies :)

[wahdncx]

this is the definition of hip hop here. no need for any computer shit at all

[midnightsocietynyc]

The fundamental problem plagues every faction of our society regardless of who has the money. We have too many people trying to be the "the one" instead of working together as one.

That's why this video now has 71 people who can't switch their minds from the ghetto... and counting.

[ethiosfuture]

what is the music at the very beginning?

[p4pj]

there"s hip hop the mother of it all krs 1 .thats hip hop not "black and yellow" bring hip hop back kill these rappers on tv who are a sad excuse for true artist

[murdok620]

yoyo anyone that wants to contribute to poetry but don't where to, i've made a lil' page in respects to poetic legends where you can submit your own stuff. written/spoken it's all good and the page is called "Potent Poetry" on facebook and like if you want!! peace..

[ANTSYO]

[krocialblack]

660,568 Views!?!? BULLSHIT!

This deserves 660,568,928 Views!

[Moni6600]

Agent!!! What does he mean there's no big brother. If visualization was the way out of poverty, there would be no poor people. Open your eyes and ears people and really listen to the misinformation being presented.

[ghettocable]

[MrJibbinrider]

[KodoLeg]

[bsimpson505]

I remember when we provided a PA system for him in Colchester UK back in the eighties he was and still is awesome!

[Hatz94]

Damn

[emmany007]

[TROY0VANESSA]

MESSAGE......

[Seanbradlym]

NWO huh?



[chizzle72]

@Seanbradlym look it up. do some research.

[pamlovsy2j]

So much truth <3

[ElMufro]

I've watched this probably over 100 times. Thank you!

[hakimgreen7]

KRS ONE is a human being with a perspective. That is all.

[rebelrevo1]

i ride with krs1 but what he was spittin sound kind of like globalization  tell me what yall know bout him cause what he was spittin was false information so somebody tell me what yall know on krs1

[scotstyleproductions]

@rebelrevo1 globalisation is the way forward. What exactly is your problem with what he's saying?

[mikebiketrike]

@rebelrevo1

what the fuck does this talk about new world order and globalisation mean? can you tell me please thanks ;)

[clbackus]

@mikebiketrike How about we give you a resource to check out: youtube.com/watch?v=NO24XmP1c5­E&ob=av3e

[mikebiketrike]

@clbackus

the link didn't work!!

[clbackus]

@mikebiketrike Just type into the search box: "Invisible Empire A New World Order Defined Full"

[rebelrevo1]

@mikebiketrike illuminati stuff look it up. New world order is a plan by them to lower the human population because of some odd evil thought that they are gods and the planet is overcrowded and globalisation is combining all the world powers to one goverment.

[mikebiketrike]

@rebelrevo1

really? who found this out? n how does anyone know for sure.. i'm confused. It sounds really interesting

thanks :)

[MszDaniiD88]

@rebelrevo1 the world is over populated the world 7 billionth person was born oct 31.. the planet can feed that many ppl BUT NOT 7billion ppl who wanna drive cars, have top of the line electonics and are simply ppl who can never have enough. #jussayiiiiiiiiiiin

[rebelrevo1]

@MszDaniiD88 true but think. What makes a man/woman or goverment so special that they can kill of so much of the population that its only 2 million left. If over population is a problem how about we slow down birth rate in stead of poisoning food supply and creating disease and plague innocents in the name of your belief. All though the earth is small compared to the other planets 7billion people is not overcrowding countries is it?

[MszDaniiD88]

@rebelrevo1 No our planet can shealter the 7 billion no problem, but can it support them? Im not an NWO follower by any means, tbh I'm not even that educated on the topic (maybe I should be). Im just pointing out that something needs to be done to control the population.

[rebelrevo1]

@MszDaniiD88 Thats why I think we should do a little more on birth control in the future. But with the NWO thing they want us poor anyway so it really doesnt matter if economically the world can sustain us or not. But i agree with you we need to slow are population increase but I dont think we should do this by means of murder poisoning and other evil plots.

[LeftEdit]

this is fucking amazing

[karzymimi42]

AMAZING!! damn doug e fresh kills it! luv KRS's lyrics!!

[treeSm0ker]

Yea boi.... You rite boi!!!

[SuperPhdiva]

Real talk if you've never heard it. Its been time for people to wake up and see the big picture!

[Adriangrosvenor]

This fool is a sell out. 

[Jonpappaswork]

@Adriangrosvenor how the fuck is krs-one a sell out?

[Adriangrosvenor]

@Jonpappaswork If you were educated enough you would know what type of philosophy he was pushing. But the ppl must have their heroes, now shew.

[Jonpappaswork]

@Adriangrosvenor I'm sorry i'm not "educated" in hip-hop, I have more important things to do, all i really care about is he sticks to his style and I can still listen to his classic's. Why the fuck would i care about the philosophy he was pushing?

[Adriangrosvenor]

@Jonpappaswork Am not speaking towards his hip hop music, am speaking of the message, the promotion of a one world government which this entire rap thing he is doing is centered around. "visualize wealth and put your self in the picture" should be something that should be even recognized by you even if your not initiated. This is masonic doctrine, the whole entire performance. This is why I say he is a sell out, he was the one claiming that he was against nwo, now he switched his stance

[LyricalKnight1]

@Adriangrosvenor Is Kris talking about Oprah Winfrey or Bill Gates wealth? What kind of wealth is KRS highlighting? I don't think he's peddling mansions, Maybachs, and yachts. I think he's talking about the kind of financial freedom that affords options. Have you ever seen Kris sipping Dom P while throwing a ton of money around like it's water? He doesn't have a sneaker deal or a 40/40 club. No diss to Jay, but Kris has always kept the flame for real Hip Hop alive. HIP HOP LIVES!

[Adriangrosvenor]

if he wants to be Masonicly affiliated then state that, but don't be fooling ppl into a belief that you are supporting their cause. But being broke and at the bottom of the barrel, I could have sympathy on him for choosing money over his values.

[Jonpappaswork]

@Adriangrosvenor The music industry is about one thing and one thing only money, and if krs-one wants to be a free mason then he shall be, his life choices will not effect music taste.

[Xbot70]

did anyone realise he said NIGGERtivitey? good, listen to the words.

[IEtherianSoul9]

This is sickk, Hip-Hop at its finest.

[KarlitoJackson]

Yeah Illuminati will always find something on someone to push that BULLSHIT, he is telling you the truth while telling you to "blame the victim!"

[sweetnov1983]

I became a fan of him after I saw this. Read about him, read his book and checked out his music.

[jordan3649]

Its funny how the ones who are living scared (LoL) of Illuminati can't help but turn into little teachers whenever they come across a video with any hint of conspiracy in it. Don't die in fear, but at the same time, do not run around Youtube trying to convince people to be as weak and afraid as you are.

[NordinNordinNordin]

@jordan3649 True shit lol

[epidemiceyedea]

Okay this is really good every nice word play.. And as far as " big brother" it's hard to say.. The term "big brother" comes from a fictional book called "1984" really good book when a have the chance pick it up and read it.. Explains allot and opens your views

[EthericWizard]

KRS my man

I don't understand

you speak out against the NWO

then extoll virtue to the luciferian Adam Kadmon

Hidden hand world plan

you an initiate or just confused man?

Yeah you visualized being legendary

ha me and the other slaves will still see you in the FEMA penitentiary

wake up sheeple

[franz909]

" No reason to fear the New World Order " (they must be good guys EH?) ... "Big brother watching over you is a lie " Damn this guy is good , he mixes kernels of truth w/ flat out lies , that the sheeple really can't or won't process what they hear .

A. the Surveillance society is growing tremendously , Obama demanded a back door on Black Berry , Ipod for gov. surveillance . All Cell phones must be traceable = ALL FACTS and there's more .

Big Brother IS WATCHING and AND LISTENING !

[ILUVJEZUZ94]

@franz909 " Big brother watching over you is a lie" You really believe the government is listening to everybody in America talk on the phone. Obama did not demand a back door on Black Berry, or iPod for gov. surveillance. Where did you get this from? Do you know what the New World Order is anyway? Its is not bad as you think. Its not a one world government, most idiots proclaim it to be. Its basically America establishing a Anglo-American government in every country in the world. 

[kingofspades12]

@oldtimeslover B.t.w... we call each other "niggas" not "niggers" whole different meaning.

[popoff21]

Legends on stage, great legends

[PhreakStep]

@oldtimeslover

KRS ONE said nigga is nothing offensive. In an interview look it up.

[EazyE275]

@JacquesJoset yeah if you dont know anything then dont come out of nowhere and talk your shit. now the case is closed.

[EazyE275]

@JacquesJoset yeah I have watched Videos about Illuminati, but mostly all the things KRS-one was rappin sounded like he was talking about em. I dont know... & yes a question mark can signal confusion. You sound like you know it all so... whats up ? whats he talking about ? whats the illuminati all about ? what are they doing/ planning to do ?

[franz909]

@EazyE275 Note he says " No reason to fear the NWO " so he admits they exist but they are nice guys , lol .

Search NWO..... and you'll see 90% of people DO FEAR the NWO , think they are an extreme danger to freedom and are pushing occult , pro war , anti christian Agendas and I'm an Atheist .

Enter - NWO in Youtube there's a lot of info .

[ManiacSerialKilleR]

stop this niggativity lol

[EazyE275]

I felt like KRS-One was talking about Illuminati ?

anyways...

SICK !! these are true legends !!!

[TRNCakaprodigy]

dougie fresh totally stole the whole damn show

[JosephCee]

dope. but i think i have mixed feelings about what KRS said..or maybe i miss understood.

[roffelboy]

song in the beginning???

appreciate it!

[DjStiv3]

this is why KRS-ONE is one of the craziest and best lyricists cuz he can fuckin rap just about things around him

[MESSIAHTHEgOD]

messiah the POET love this poem !!!

[eroekone]

63 haters..

[CBwife1919]

Was I the only one who clicked the like button before it even ended?

[coleon8]

Wow zeitgiest theosophy new age hmm....thats coo...Krs one raps about everything I guess, but when you do that...what do you stand on?Knowledge is great in all but wisdom is greater. Thats my opinion. Can't agree with 2 many rappers anymore shits all loco..

[hoopbone1]

66weedsmoker, I told you to check your stach, that aint weed your smokin!!! "get oup, get out and get som'n, stop wasting all your time getting high" LMAO Thanx Big BOI and Andre 3000!!

[dreadsmusiclove]

[Andohhh]

YOU PROBABLY SEE THIS ALOT BUT FUCK IT CHECK ME OUT A 16 YR OLD EMCEE FROM THE UK REPPIN' HIP-HOP TO IT'S FULLEST

[MzJazzy123100]

this was awesome

[ShazadeyKurdii]

awesome

[infamousreligion93]

Finesse Talent, I wish i could of lived a days in KRS-ONE's shoes back in the 80's watching hip hop develop to what it is today.

Can't Believe people still dont know what KRS ONE stands for.

(Knowledge Reigns Supreme - Over Nearly Everybody)

[609ric]

@infamousreligion93  instead of everybody its everyone

[infamousreligion93]

@609ric yea u right

[RezAIIDay]

Im an artist tryna get my sound heard, id appreciate if u stopped on my channel, my music's gettin a name 4 itself n will not dissapoint . Hope u enjoy "its the kingpin"

[EdsonL207]

hip hop all the way,no doubt...

[DonLeon505]

Was this off the top? KNOWIN KRS IT PROBABLY COULD BE IF NOT

[winggoddess]

my favorite rap of his so far.  is it on any albums?

[007pished]

your* V V

[007pished]

look if you don,t understand and don't have the life experience or vision don't try to use you ignorance a fact

[manuel1008ee]

ok i get when he talks about the wealthy and poor part. If you continue to put yourself in this reality that you will not become wealthy there is no way to become wealthy, but if you say to yourself and you can see yourself wealthy then it can actualize. But him saying there is no Big Brother or New World Order is weird because ive seen him mention big brother and the New World Order.

[ihateted11]

@manuel1008ee he didn't say no new world order, he said there's no reason to fear it

[chizzle72]

@manuel1008ee i think you misunderstood.

[zezoB101]

@manuel1008ee i think what he means is that , they cant affect us because we live within the culture of hip hop im a bboy but i watch def poetry all the time and i listen to real emceeing, when you listen to whats true , the lies cant get to you anymore

[est1994jsm]

what song when hes coming out to the stage

[RudeBoySkaters]

@est1994jsm i think its a remix of Bad To The Bone by George Thorogood

[blacknumber187]

if you want to hear krs one drop some knowledge listen to his interviews with alex jones

[rapidol2008]

62 people on here are lil weezy's wives so they dont know who a a good rapper is./

[alby27885]

isnt krs meant to protest AGAINST the new world order?

and visualising getting richer and you will be richer, that sounds like scientology to me.

i hope im wrong KRS was always one of my favorite rappers

but we must beware of false prophets who pretend to be on our side, only to lead us further down the rabbit hole

.

[pozzog]

@alby27885 KRS is only sayin' how you should aim for success (not actual money) and to not get caught up with conspiracies. make the world work for you instead.

[YrUlUKkiNAtM34]

@pozzog except he stated himself here "Big Brother watching over you is a lie, you see hip hop has buit it's secret society", so essentially his denying the fact the nwo and that the government is watching us when we all know that is exactly what the government does just like other countries. just look at the iphone...........they musta got to him after he started speaking too much truth about the nwo on the obama deception video.

[999grime]

@alby27885 my exact thoughts whilst watching, would of thought krs would be totally against that shit instead of promoting it, suspicious video to say the least

[ewjomega]

Now that's hip hop!

[DJFINGAS07]

To my man jUstin"EfFeCt" nuttin like da old sKoOl

[ramones1940]

smartest man in the whole fucking world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[underyourskindvd]

Knowledge ....

[JORDYB0Y]

Doug E Fresh, krs one and slick rick= the 3 wise men of hip hop

[123john123john123123]

@JORDYB0Y Slick Rick wasn't to wise seeing as he's in jail for amtempted murder -.-

[Oldschoolrap91]

@JORDYB0Y so glad there are people out there who think the same way I do....When I saw the video for the first time I couldn't believe what I saw....Krs and Doug E. in the same room doing what they do best......claaaaaaassic rap music

[KillerSaiyan]

THIS WAS MOTHERFUCKEN HIP HOP

TODAYS MUSIC IS PURE GARBAGE SHIT

[trashfilme]

@KillerSaiyan

it is rap, not hip hop ;)

[ishgotti]

poverty is a mindstate? so starving people in africa and other countries are poor because they think they are poor. wake up dumbasses

[krystalxlyte]

@ishgotti true...as if there is no unjust hand tipping the scale. its just due people thinking negatively..riiight.

bad thinking is only a FORM of poverty...not the sum of the whole.

[hoonsday]

@ishgotti

errmmm

Africa is a country abundant in resources

however the majority of Africa is run by corrupt governments

kris is saying that if the people can start thinking and change their mindstates they can become rich

[hoonsday]

@ishgotti

errmmm

Africa is a country abundant in resources

however the majority of Africa is run by corrupt governments

kris is saying that if the people can start thinking and change their mindstates they can become rich

like starting a rebellion

[pozzog]

Krs is the greatest hip hop figure ever. Great pioneer, hes a living legend and contribbuted so much. He basically laid down the law for whats hip hop and whats not, the teacha! He started the Stop the Violence movement and even got people like Lil Wayne(fag) to sign it. he constatnly puts in work and he is still com'n out with great hits. Can't wait for his full length collab with Dj Premier to release!

[MechaPokePwns]

1 word 3 letters starts with p ends with o, thats right its pro not poo = this vid

[desidoe69]

@MechaPokePwns It's "you're" not "your" you stupid dumbfuck...shouldn't be calling someone else retarded when you don't even know basic literature.

[willworkforfro]

a lot of people can't handle the truth he's speaking off. A lot of people don't get the subtlety of his message. It's time to broaden your mind, folks! Those English Lit classes do have a purpose.

[islandwarrior16]

"The rich get richer / while we ain't richer, could it be / we still thinking like niggas"

"visualize wealth and put urself in the picture"

Translation: Next time you see a homeless person on the street or those starving African kids on TV, it's their fault they are in that situation because they are "still thinking like niggas" and they lack the ability to "visualise wealth" and put themselves "in the picture."

KRS 1 is saying some fucked up shit.

[brianparran1]

@islandwarrior16 no he meant they limited what they thought they could be capable of. that what being a nigga is limiting yourself

[504pkknight08]

@islandwarrior16 He's promoting the New Age Agenda !!!!!!!1

[UrbanHeadhunter]

@islandwarrior16 Are you sure he's referring to homeless people and starving African kids? Or is he talking about the youth that have opportunity to become something, but would rather rep their hood and sell drugs? They want to be rich, but they do not see themselves or want to work toward being a part of corporate America. Just my opinion though

[desidoe69]

If you listen closely to what he says, it's really really fucked up.

[MechaPokePwns]

@desidoe69 Your Retarded...

[TwoToneSoldier]

I like when he drops the biggest chunks of knowledge you can hear the crowd silence, its deafening

[pennixballer92]

I love the crowds energy in this...and the lyrics are dope haha

[mrbigddell]

Nuff said

[highonfire3653]

i love krs-one him blackstar(mos and talib), The Roots and a tribe called quest is some of my favorite rap from the 90's

[ThePaulocastor]

@highonfire3653 krs-one, blackstar, a tribe are my favs from ever.

[ekwalate]

@ThePaulocastor haha yup



[TonyTheSamurai]

[P03TICS0UL91]

[deadweathergrl]
