  • THE RAPTURE!!!!

  • Rock the casbah! Rock the casbah!

  • ah DAMN! haha :D

  • @arviagent13, It's "Rock the Casbah" by the Clash :)

  • @icecubeWSC: I found it like around 10 seconds after posting this. I appreciate it though. Thanks.

  • Pure copy from rock the casbah

  • 2000 was quite a memorable year for me. I was 9 years old, in the 3rd grade, obsessed with pokemon like every other child was at the time, My first camp (Yes i did cry when I left mum behind), I moved house for the first for the first in my life. And Of course the olympics where here in australia

  • mismo the clash

  • Hah the clash. Remember when this dropped was like 6 years old.

  • YEAHHHHHHH THIS IS MY JAM!!!!!!!!1

  • That rolling sound you hear in the back round is Joe Strummer rolling in his grave

  • i can count the pixels here -_-

  • 31 people are disappointed that Y2K wasn't a big deal because they spent their savings on survival kits.

  • DE AKEYAS WILL SIMON KE SISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

  • DE AKEYAS WILL SIMON KE SI

  • "MUSIC" is one of the best avenues we communicate our "EMOTIONS" is why Gospel singer Kirk Franklin in his song "DECLARATION (*this is it*) Sampled Kenny Loggins song "THIS IS IT". The fact is "MUSIC" of today, yesterday and tomorrow shall continue to be the Great songs we remember no matter What (time, era, focus) or Whom (race, sex, age, belief or non) is making it. I'm not saying everyone may or even should enjoy the new blend or style, but they will still TASTE THE ESSENCE OF THAT SONG.

  • @2be1neurotic what the fuck is this^?

    I dont really have much to say (nothing nice atleast) about gospel, but seriously you make all members of organized religions look stupid by the line "MUSIC" is one of the best avenues we communicate our "EMOTIONS".....

    you use shanty logic to propose two songs noone has heard of (or is related to this song, Will 2K) and tell us things that we probably felt about music already, seeing as we are infact listening to songs on yt.

  • Answer, the moves they were doing between frames 1:38 - 2:14 was called the "JITTERBUG" a dance for couples, in the late 1930s and early 1940s, which involved fast, acrobatic movements to "SWING" music and the outfits they were sporting are called "ZOOT SUITES" made for that dance in a exaggerated style, high waisted and baggy trousers narrowing at the cuffs, also a long draped coat and accessorized with a long pocket chain. So, "BUGGED" or started "BUGGING" you would be doing the "JITTERBUG".

  • fuck this shit, im changing to the clash

  • @Polyrytmi Yes, Mr. Smith did sample the "CLASH" song Rock the Casaba, but "MUSIC" is the Universal Language, if you play the video by Destiny's Child - Bootylicious, notice playing guitar between these opening frames 0:16 0:18 0:20. It's none other than Rock's Royalty "STEVIE NICKS" the beat their sampling is from her album "BELLA DONNA" and the song Edge of Seventeen. How cool for a Rock DIVA to mix it w/Soul DIVA'S.

  • kool

  • the fresh prince lookin like bootsy collins lol

  • Legend big willy !

  • 1:08 is hilarious!!!!!!!

  • love the soultrain lol

  • any one knows what kind of dance is this @ 2:10 ?

  • @aabsee i think its called jive

  • @aabsee the moves they were doing between frames 1:38 - 2:14 was called the "JITTERBUG" a dance for couples, in the late 1930s and early 1940s, which involved fast, acrobatic movements to "SWING" music and the outfits they were sporting are called "ZOOT SUITES" made for that dance in a exaggerated style, high waisted and baggy trousers narrowing at the cuffs, also a long draped coat and accessorized with a long pocket chain.

  • I'm 16, cleaning out my room and found a box full of tapes. Can't believe I found this hahah

  • oh my sack....i remember how much i used to love this track. this is gonaa get played HARD in my playlist for the next few weeks :D

  • This has the sickest beat :D

  • savage video and song, pure genius Will Smith

  • random question: is "psychadelic 70s" alliteration? =)

  • Was this really 11 years ago? Me and my friend at the time loved this song in juinor school. LONG THE 90'S

  • Will Smith is a nice guy, I don't mind if he uses a classic tune from the Clash

  • the clash

  • The original black eyed peas.

  • I would love to chastise this tune for sampling The Clash, but tbh, its a damn good song.

  • 0:46

  • eminem just doesnt understand that will smith transcends rap.

  • AT 1:26, what era was that? I like that shit!

  • Eminem can talk shit about Will Smith all he wants.. but this song is damn good !

  • @SmackuSer he wasn't he was just saying that will smith doesn't have to cuss to sell records cuz at the time people likes will but not many people liked eminem so cussing was his thing

  • @infostations Eminem makes fun of Will Smith in his video's but Will Smith is a damn good singer and actor! Eminem still needs acting lessons.. he should ask Will for help :-)

  • @SmackuSer what you on about

  • @infostations yea that sounds right..*thumbed up*

  • @SmackuSer em hasnt dissed will

  • @liamsteer he has :p but eminem said in a interview he didnt mean it in a bad way :o

  • @cantrememberwhy123 You can't say what Em did to Will was dissing it was him calling Will Smith out because he felt Will disrespected almost every rapper who used cussing in a record. If Em was actually dissing Will it would have been a whole other thing, just look at Em's history with diss tracks.

  • @silentc22 ok guess i was wrong :)

  • @SmackuSer what did em say about him?

  • @TheRockingtimeTV "Will Smith don't got a cuss in his raps to sell records....well i do, so fuck him and fuck you too" that's what eminem said in the song "The Real Slim Shady", beginning of the second verse.

  • @SmackuSer i'd like to think eminem was giving massive respect to will smith with that line, like saying 'the rest of us have to put swear words in our lyrics to sell records - this guy does it so easy, he doesnt have to'

  • ese wey es el mejor de los negron es atoda madre un saludo para wil desde mexico

    

  • see, wuh had happen wuh...

  • dang i remember this lol

  • wiilow smith watches these now and she's like ''DAMMMMMMMMMN!! daddy had flow!!'

  • Is this what mediocre means ?

  • @beermilkshake no that what the doctor said when he pulled you out of your mother woo ha

  • is this really the best quality for this video you can find on youtube????

  • 1999 was the best new years eve of all time.

  • Though this track was for Y2K, it's what I play every new years.. BIG WILLY STYLE

  • Like its 99 woop

  • I have to play this every new years!

  • "This should be the official New Years Eve Jam!"

  • Only time of the year where my name seems to be relevant. >_<; ... Kinda like having this around so that I can feel somewhat party animal'd out when the DJ rips it around fever pitch. Always a positive... although, this year... that Usher song about the DJ will be what this song was at the time.

  • Twenty Eight people do not know what it was like hearing this song in 1999...

  • HAPPY NEW YEAR TOMORROW WILL(ENIUM) ROOOXXXX

  • happy new year!!!

  • Happy New year!!! Gotta bang this classic out tomorrow night!!

  • Haha fkn classic

  • god this video must have been so fun to shoot!

  • cant bring in a new year unless i listen to this song

  • Will Smith in 2222 looks like a Gaga from 2008/2009.

  • When he hit 2222, I was horrified. He may be right on the style of clothing by that time.

  • You never know where your going, until you know where you've been.... that why I'm back listening to this song every year. :)

  • I loved it then and I love it still! I watched Will Smith perform this very song on New years eve 1999. The world was different back then and we had so much fun... WHAT HAPPENED?? (That was hypothetical...)

  • Audio out of sync?

  • its funny how all the 90s thought it would be robot-like stuff in the 2000s...

  • damn, and now the SECOND year of the 2010s is about to start... i still almost can't believe the 90s is so far behind us.

  • he went back to 1987 - the best year ever, I was born haha

  • I love how all the decades are represented!

  • OMG 1:09 had me on the FLOOOOR!!!!!!

  • i cant beleive its been nearly a decade since this song. this decade has gone to fast for me 

  • @theMaraudersrock nearly a decade, it is almost 2011, this came out in 1999, this song is over 11 years old.

  • i was 9 when the millenium hit, this song was NONSTOP on mtv! oh i miss those days

  • He took that shitty song by that shitty band The Clash, and made it listenable.

  • The Clash should sue him.

  • Im really sad born in 1996 i dont remember the ball hittin 2k i was probably in bed ><

  • My ex punk boyfriend Ben Lawrence told me that Hip-hop and punk music would never mix boy was he wroung . Big up the clash and Will

  • Fantastic

  • mainstream music was actually good in the 90's...ever since early 2000's....i havent been impressed at all.

  • @mbenzsl2000 Lol,well that is so intersting that you say that this is impressive. Naturally to the fans of Will it is. But to many others its really not that impressive.Unfortunately,this was ranked in one of the top worst songs of the 90's. Personally i feel,That's a pretty stupid call on the part of whoever owns that list. But it goes to show that each generation has its own tastes.

  • Comment removed

  • @lovelygoldensparrow

    I actually didnt care much for mainstream pop of the 90s...but compared to "music" that on the airways now, this stuff is tame and innocent..and easy to listen to. If I had kids, i would never let them listen the a lot of the crap mainstream music on the airways today.(not all, some aritsts are good...) BET as a channel seems to pride themselves on "black music" and "black culture"....yet they focus of on the worst hip artists ever...ultimately sending wrong message

  • @mbenzsl2000 Thats a cool opinion. Alot of the people from past generations may feel the same way about your music choices and the generation b4 them may have felt that way about theirs. Every group has likes and dislikes about the next. its good that you would have limits for your kids. Of course,you gotta remember that kids grow up and develop their styles,naturally. I do agree that some of the artists are bad. Tho music has been risque since the renaissance days,lol.

  • @lovelygoldensparrow very true.....I mean if you look at ol school hip hop, it wasnt meant to be glamorous. they were just tryin to find and outlet to express what happens in their everyday lives...and it sold....sold well, to the point where many of the hip hop artists of today are just trying to recreate that "bad ass" image. Its kind of ironic...I love nwa, tupac, snoop....public enemy etc, but definately dont condone what they stand for

  • @mbenzsl2000 Absolutely. Old school hip hop and rap have always been a two sided coin kinda thing. Hip hop was meant to be music w/out a bassline. Rap came in w/snoop,biggie,tupac,nwa to really speak about the tragedies that were goin on in neighborhoods. it wasnt meant to stand for violence,so much as it meant 2 expose it 2 the blind eye of the world. Alot of hip hop is still tryin to be upliftin,tho. like mary j blige and sean kingston.

  • @lovelygoldensparrow nice profile by the way....and cute pic(sssss) :)

  • @mbenzsl2000 aww,lol. thank you!

  • @lovelygoldensparrow snoop,biggie,tupac,nwa are actually the beginning of gangster rap.

  • @knowledgegs Yes i am quite aware of that. That is what i was explaining. Actually nwa was the start of gangster rap. the others soon came after.

  • @lovelygoldensparrow i mean hey, remember madonnas like a virgin performance? lol.....well nevermind, id still say thats a bit risque even still today

  • go will go will go will go will go will

  • and we gonna party like its 19 9 hold up it issss ... long live the 90s

  • 25 people were expecting y2k

  • no one will ever beat Will Smith, im a huge Eminem fan but the thing with Will his is rapping but theres no sex,drugs or swear just great music. I Miss Will i adore him !!!!!!! Wish he would bring more stuff out x

  • dis mug makes me wanna jump!!

    its funny cause 10 yrs l8r! 2010!

    2:28 they som crazy black dudes

    they was like "oooohh" @ da end!!

    i miss will sooo much im gone cry!

  • @fairyDBZmj Lol,the man isnt dead. he just doesnt make music much anymore. Dont cry.

  • rock! the casbah

  • i miss the 90s =[

  • the last time I saw this was in 1999 and they stopped showing after new years

  • IT'S BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

  • Rock the Casbah!!!!

  • I remember years ago in 1999 moments before 2000 came, I was with my then girlfriend and her family. I was so freaked out that something was going to happen at midnight, I buried my head in her legs. I clung to her like fly paper to a person's skin. I thought the world was going to shut down or something. I thought a nuclear bomb was going to drop. I thought God himself was going to come and wipe out the world. I was a mess.

  • @agentbl - The main problem with that theory would be all the different time zones, for example, if New Zealand, Australia, Asia, Europe and the UK all started to disappear one by one, then you might have then had to worry about the possibility of Armageddon happening!

  • @Cooter3422 Well I did think Arrmagedddon was going to hit at the strike of midnight at the year 2000 because it was like all over the news. People were afraid that their computers was going to shut down. I still admit that I was afraid. I was just telling what happened to me at that time. The only think I worry about now is 2012 because someone said that something's going to happen two years from now. That movie 2012 might be some kind of premonition. I hope to God it's not.

  • @agentbl You must have been really high

  • @poetryrb No. I've never gotten high in my life. I'm not that kind of person to get high. When you do get high, you lose brain cells.

  • OMG I 4 GOT ABOUT THIS ..MAN TIME PASS BYE FAST

  • and now it's more that 10 years LATER. where the hell did the time go?

  • Its pure style..... i love this song, :)

  • great song and video go will 25 people who disliked this get a life

  • Great song and great artist. Go big will!!!

  • I remember everybody was all hype about the Millenium :)

  • @mzBrittanyMONROE Me too! Remember the useless worrying about the Millenium Bug? :D

  • @sunnygirly2k4 the good ole days :)

  • @sunnygirly2k4

    lol, yup. i was just 10 years old back then, and i remember thinking how ridiculous and hilarious all that hype and paranoia was. the best part of the year 2000 finally arriving was that absolutely NOTHING happened. now THAT was funny.

  • @freshPrincess626 It was! :D I have funny memories of a family friend buying an enormous water keg: 'just in case - at least I'll be prepared' , she said, tapping on the keg significantly :D

  • They should update this song every year, just to keep it relevant.

  • @FOADgamers I can honestly agree with that thing is they'd have other artists do it and someone along the line would wreck it

  • i like the clash. i like will smith. this works. :)

  • what the hell is this disgusting crap?

    SHARIF DON'T LIKE IT.

  • 2223 looks interesting :)

  • You people can't be this dumb saying anyone "ripped off" The Clash. You can't be! This was "sampled" from the clash WITH permission. You think Will would risk a law suit? Idiots! This sounds wayyyyy better and I have heard both in person! Kids today!

  • thief !!!!! this music is from the clash - rock the casbah. PROFANUM!!!!!!!

  • @wostalizna don't you think the clash got paid for this? dumbass.

  • @wostalizna It's called sampling and The Clash got paid for the use, and if they don't mind someone using their music why should you?

  • 10 years form now i Was on road to the millenium in Paris :))

  • hahaht his song was awesome back then. what am i talking about it . still is. =) i have never forgotten the words.

  • i was 7 years old when this came out....loved the tune bak thn and its still sick...even tho he aint the greatest rapper or owt...no doubt thats eminem...but will smith was the person who insired me to rap in the first place

  • @sybo59 Actually he ripped off the Clash.

  • @Tsukasloth i prefer "sampled" the clash

  • ROCK THE CASBAH!!! ROCK THE CASBAH!!!!

  • Willennium was my first album.

  • @MrColbyJackCheese haha it was my first one too

  • Awesome video

  • Comment removed

  • wohoo! hahah say what what say what!

  • I straight up love Will Smith,

  • damn this song is fire. this what hip hop is about
