Blu - TilWeDie

[Sandice1]

this song makes me feel like taking off to the sky, but at the same time it brings back balance into life and makes me feel closer to the ground. such a beautiful and strong flow.

[steeler7588]

I think the sample is Larry Norman - "Nothing Really Changes" (youtube.com/watch?v=aFpDzAKrY­p8) is you can believe it. Pretty tight sample flipping by Blu.

[s4mnoon3z]

he woulda gotten so rich with interscope records....he turned down the money and fame for the soul of the music......now thats swag.....

[eighttimez8]

what album is it on pls?

[pineapplepootytang]

[TheBlckmagic93]

[mCHUBZ845]

[monkeyside]

i dont want to sound teary-eyed moody or like an add with cancer-kids in it, but somehow this is just about one of those songs that keep you on track when your day sucked.

[Knuckles0918]

[mellohwan]

blu is among the few who can centre my soul. i appreciate it

[stilldancing88]

I just love this guy. So straightforward & real rap.

Listening to his music makes my soul sing

[goodtimesalltime]

In My mind Blu is one of the most Inspirational rappers of my generation.I have been on earth for a meer 15 years now, and am glad that i did not fall into the grip of fake hip hop. I am smarter in many ways because of music like this. Thank you to the real hip hop artists who have helped me through the rough patches

Peace

-Jake

[drubreeze87]

[miracleman2323]

Multiply my visual gain by my spiritual gain, dividing truth by pain..still steering the plane, like the pilots do..sun shining in the skies blue..so i wave hi, we just ridin' through..no titles, no idols, no pride, no time to try to prove to you why we fly, we just do US..and we trust that you do you, that's how we was brought up to do.

[c2quick4u]

BLU if you see a E drop that shyt XD.....BLU could take over easy if he want it

[AIRSO97]

cudder is one of the best cats on the radio but the key words are ON THE RADIO

[fnormality]

@AIRSO97 Nope not really.. His stuff on his album are 10 times better than his stuff on the radio.. Well you'll know that if you actually listen to his albums.. Not just his radio singles i.e 'Erase Me'.. or 'Make Her Say'..

[AIRSO97]

@fnormality totally i have motm1 and motm2 and i have every mix tape he has every released on my ipod and i went to his concert a few months ago

[fnormality]

@AIRSO97 Niceeee.. Kinda disappointed he scrapped A Man Named Scott.. But def looking forward to his new stuff..

[AIRSO97]

@fnormality damn hes not gunna do a man named scott

[fnormality]

@AIRSO97 Oh crap.. Sorry i had to break it to ya lol.. Yeh he scrapped it.. :(

[pendie87]

I one person that disliked this needs to have their ears shot off.

[discodani420]

[yvesO301]

lol at everybody here sayin blu & random guys being the top cats in the game right now

there are A LOT of great rappers out there, you just have to find them. my ipod is full with great hip hop, so lmao at only 2-3 good emcees nowadays

[mclean1995]

Blu speaks the truth.

[mdogg44]

straight up jam, im glad this video is getting this many views. Lupe and blu the most talented artists in the rap game at this point

[PinaDago]

I remember we used to chase the ice cream truck, now we hopin that our eyes bling plush.

Its crazy cause you really feel what he spits.

[mrrape]

@PinaDago the line goes

"it seems like yesterday we was chasing an ice cream truck, now we hoping that our ice bling plush"

But you can really feel the emotion he puts into every line

[willensix]

does he say "couldn't believe i was really about to father a child, when all of us style, the world girls are brought up in now"

[greatgrimes]

@willensix when all of this foul, world girls are brought up in now

[noodlesoup1998]

What fucking 1 retard clicked the dislike button on this shit??? This beat alone would make me cry it is so beautiful.

[JayBeaTz3000]

@noodlesoup1998 im gonna say it was the cudi fan

[hendrix2711]

realest nigga going

[MCJonZen]

ohhhh yeah this song rocks

[WpMadden1]

@bloodmoney52

navigate principle aim?

[rmmoney1]

dudes needa to listen to this insted of that bullshit rap

[Trapordie27272727]

speechless this guy is the most under rated rapper better yet poet idk what to explain this cat hes fucking amazing no homo I have never heard music like this.

[sumthinclvr]

blu is a genuine talent...

cudi, talib, lupe, and common are all dope in my opinion, but the soul blu puts into his music makes him special. blu really is on his own level.

[sumthinclvr]

@bloodmoney52 i think he says "principle aim"

[swaggaBfresh]

lupe and blu yeah,,,but i just cant feel cudi....he's part of that new era of rappers...with all that funny style business i tried to listen to his mixtape...im not with his voice..he tries to sing idk,,,cant groove with it

[swaggaBfresh]

blu...cudi is a wack weed head lol thats why other wack weed heads worship him

blu speaks the truth

[Tempo2010]

@swaggaBfresh ya cudi is a weed head but have u listened to any cudi mixtapes or albums?...Kid cudi speaks truth...You cant just judge him on Day N Night

[swaggaBfresh]

@Tempo2010 YEAH UR RIGHT...I HAVENT HEARD ENOUGH OF HIM ...BUT IDK IM JUST NOT A FAN...I THINK ITS EASY TO CLICK ON A SONG AND JUDGE SOMEBODY LIKE THAT....EITHER THE PEOPLE ON HERE PUT ALL HIS WEED MUSIC UP...SO I WOULDNT KNOW MUCH ABOUT CUDI...BUT U NOT THE FIRST TO SAY THAT...I GUESS I CAN GIVE HIM A TRY AGAIN

[da1fromdaheightz]

@swaggaBfresh  cudi is an amazing artist you cock sucker

[RaVeRNaTiOn]

@da1fromdaheightz

Ya you sound like one of the guys that listens to mainstream and kid cudi, Just by your use of insulting words. The people that aren't mainstream are all about chillin

[itsziplockp]

this shit is fucking timeless. blu is on another level man. @X831HUSTLER said it best..this shit takes away all the stress.

[704478]

how many bars was that??? damN!

[aPoetAfterAll]

cudi aint got shit on this man. cudi was nice just like kanye, when he didn't sell out. thaswhasup.

[Dubulous111]

damn how many bars in a row was that? fuckin tiger style! DUDE IS DANGEROUS

[Sp0KE1]

i HAD to click the download link, cmon...its Blu..

[X831HUSTLER]

this song takes away all the stress :)

[Churchboy03]

*Sigh*... I dont' think the mainstream will ever be ready for blu...

[TheJJA]

Hip Hop's gained a pulse back

[MiCKPhasers]

Blu is the Truth. he signed with warner bros which means he could have an album hitting stores soon !

[willensix]

what does he say after "couldn't believe i was really about to father a child"

[KelaBeats]

So real, so deep. I love Blu. He actually that thing called talent. Something the radio does not possess.

[mistahmaskman]

wow we actually have a real rapper.

[lupENDboy]

Lupe Fiasco, Mos Def, Blu, rappers that aren't in the underground, but very close.

All very good.

[MiCKPhasers]

@lupENDboy I feel you yo. dont forget to put Talib Kweli in that group

[lupENDboy]

Yeah, people can't really say that all main stream rappers are bad.

Nas and Lupe, examples of great main stream rappers.

[pluckit760]

this song just puts me in that moment ..must be nice if happyness is priceless.. right.........

[SCJW125]

thank God for Blu

[niallz]

All the new rap is horrendous , seriously. This on the other hand is dope. Someone who doesn't cuss every verse and doesnt talk about dealing and killing like the fake pop artists do. YOUR MY BOY BLU!

[BIG1Troy]

thats what you get when ya step dad a pastor

[imILLadvised]

He hated his step dad, his stepdad got nothing to do with it

[BIG1Troy]

he was influenced off of christian rap though, i was just stating he was very religeous

[kadfsass32]

Yo man these kids in the street need to look to blu as inspiration if they want to spit or just look into the hip hop communtiy for an outlet wjhether its bboying graffiti mcing whatever. Just look at blu man he made that shit happen proud of that dude man

[LukeValentino]

Damn.. His style and lyrics just don't stop impressing me! Dope as f*ck!!!!

[soulbrother16]

GODlee!

[JRoctheRoxwell]

"...and we trust that you do you..that's how we was brought up to do..."

this dude is such a dope mc

[SoulzIntact]

Im only 16 but in my opinion i really think blu is the greatest rapper i have ever heard so far. his music is refreshing and soothing.. he is a great lyricist in my opinion one of the best.. each song he makes has a story behind it.. i just wish that everyone would listen to music that means something...rather than that fake bullshit on the radios.

[Vfory]

@SoulzIntact while this being true, you cant call it fake bullshit or bash the folks who listens to it, not everyone listens to music to think and and whatnot, some ppl listen to it purely for entertainment, I have grounds to say this cuz I listen to blu and lil wanye (odd mix right? lol). Just remember this, just because you disike it doesnt mean everyone else has to. They probly say the same thing about you when they hear what you listen to, just listen to your music and enjoy it for you.

[proofofpayment]

@Vfory True that. The people who want to hear thought provoking hip hop have the means to search for and find it. Hopefully there are enough people out there to make Blu's (and anyone like him) career a successful one. It's just a matter of what music means to you and what you want to hear coming out of those speakers.

[NightmareKingz]

@SoulzIntact LMAO Faggot, NaS and Az and Em and all the other legends just missed your radar? BITCH!

[rateb08]

@SoulzIntact im 16 too.(your prob 17 now .-.)

couldn't have said that any better

[02assist]

@SoulzIntact If blue is the greatest rapper you've ever heard so far, then why isn't this song in Ur favorites?

[uni8547]

@02assist your a fucking loser for that SMFH -_____-

[450187]

I always been a fan of Blu but this track man...I can't even stop listenning to it.

[TheArtistik2]

Blu is sick as fuck, can't wait till he drops his debut so everybody can see what real hip hop is, oh yeah, but don't sleep on Lupe or Wale, Lupe first two albums are sick as fuck and Wale dropped Atention Deficit and that shit goes hard with a different swagger

[imILLadvised]

@TheArtistik2 lol below the heavens was his debut..? unless you mean the debut with the new label

[discodani420]

"whatever I be on the good god got me on"

wtf he's so raw

[omgomgla]

blu is the best rapper in all terms, he has sooo many diff flows, hes so prolific, nearly everything he makes is of high quality, hes really just the shit. Lupe can compare but doesnt match up, as for kid cudi, no need to really mention him in the same sentence as blu, they not alike in terms or style or skill.

[sp33ns33r]

By far the best Blu track

[raincof]

HUH??? you cant put KidCudi and Blu in same category, no camparison at all, Blu is fuckin' ill..

[HipHopGuardian]

Nigga Blu and Kid Cudi do the same thing...talk about themselves and be real in order to bring good music to people...

[niallz]

@HipHopGuardian what rapper doesnt talk about themselves ? what fucken planet you been on since the 80s.

[HipHopGuardian]

Are you kidding me?

I meant that they talk about life experiences that ACTUALLY happened or that people can RELATE to...unlike most "rappers" today...

[phunkidruma]

@raincof true story son...please let them know the other level spittas...they ALWAYS make us think beyond.....now andre3stacks needs 2 hurry up with his new joint...andre 3000 in my opinion is the jimi hendrix of rap...along with qtip...ONE!

[AtomskOO]

@raincof fuckign agree kid cudi is lame.

[vegettix]

@AtomskOO look bro cudi is ill too, both blu and cudi are on a whole other level than these other artists we have out today. so in my opnion i say

1.blu

2. kid cudi

etc.

[corrie911]

@vegettix

1. blu, lupe, elzhi (i assume we're talkin new school)

2. kid cudi

had to fix that for ya.

[pkduexmachina]

@vegettix lol @ blu being only one spot above kid cuddi

sorry mate, kid cudi is just trash.

[rmsg120nsb]

@vegettix with all due respect, kid cudi ain't ill. elzhi and blu are the standard of real hip hop nowadays. i'm 17, i'm portuguese and i know that.

[vegettix]

@rmsg120nsb we are just going to have to agree to disagree, cuz i hate that mainstream radio shit an ive known kid cudi way before he hit it big so imma stick with him an imma do the same for blu

[ScarceOnes]

@raincof word up no fuckin comparison really!? lol

[ghudson44]

@raincof blus badass but i think cudi is above him 4 now, i think blu is just beginning

[ekwalate]

@ghudson44 i hate to disagree bro.

blu has a true gift unlike most mainstream cats and that is true knowledge that can relate to everyone somehow.

no disrespect to cudi. but his lyrics only reach me when im loaded.

[tdeluna]

@ghudson44 Seriously, brah? Cudi?  Hmmm....

[ghudson44]

@tdeluna Cudis music is great,despite his drug reference....his music hits you,besides i dont have anything against blu

[bozio89]

please someone tell me what song he sampels here!!

[ScoobyBBS]

i agree, both are beasts on the beats, but they have such a diff style, hemmingway and poe, van gogh and da vinci, moss vs rice.... different types of people in the same category, but each great at on their own, kinda like pac and biggie, two VERY different rappers who got compared because they were in the same time line, and ended up throwin shots at each other

[bigheadkid56]

This song just expresses so much Soul..

mos def in a league of his own =)

[niallz]

Kid Cudi and Bobby Ray B.O.B sound exactly the same. They position their musical sphere around all those lame hipster kids. I prefer Golden Age Hip Hop but this isn't bad, not bad at all. Soul was a sick mixtape.

[imILLadvised]

Blu is my favorite rapper.. but Im a fan of Bob and cudi too. They sound completely different, and they both rap based off emotions and passion, and that means something.

[niallz]

@imILLadvised they sound the same . skinny jean rappers

[imILLadvised]

@niallz even if they did both wear the same type of pants that wouldnt mean anything.  but B.o.B doesnt even wear skinnys. And theyre sounds are completely different if youve listened to both. Cudi is more techno electronic type shit while BoB can play instruments and is more organic type music.

[kngjames83]

True that!

[kngjames83]

Please explain to me why you think Lupe is not diverse? I thought diversity is what sets him apart from everybody else.

[discodani420]

Poetry

[raidtime]

Refering to flipmanja, Kid Cudi is a self-overrating lame whack-o who can neither sing nor rap properly and has the instrumental taste of a 12 year old. Lupe is okay though. Blu still rips them all off when it comes to lyrical and musical genius.

[flipmanja]

I'm not going to fight too hard for Kid Cudi, because although he's talented, he's not as good as Lupe or Blu - he's just very refreshing to listen to. As for Lupe, he's waaay more than ok - the guy's a lyrical master (I'll defo fight for him). Him and Blu are probably within the same bounds of talent and musical prowess

[kawz23]

@raidtime

couldnt have said it better

[trueglory]

Where is this song???

[freethought23]

Filthy, radio mcs take notes,,, matter fact dont because then u wouls saturate the market and it would just be pop shit

[kaadddaarrr]

kid cudi=lame

[namkooc]

yea kid cude is wack as hell your so right

[LochDogg]

Shad K

fools on a whole nutha level when it comes to lyrics

[therealkeychange]

no doubt... elzhi, blu, sean p, shad, royce. cant be stopped.

[super0duper0]

couldnt agree more

[HipHopGuardian]

kid cudi is good but i wouldnt put him in the same category as blu and lupe and he def isnt ah poet lmfao

[flipmanja]

Anyone who produces a composition with beats and rhythm is a poet - whether they're a good poet or not, is a totally different topic altogether. And that'll be up to the audience, and the tastes of the individual listener to judge. But yeah I agree that he's not as good as Blu or Lupe, but he's way better than people like 50 Cent and Lil Wayne lol

[Theuniquestory]

@flipmanja hey 8ut what a8out charles hamilton????

[flipmanja]

@Theuniquestory Charles Hamilton is pretty sick. And him and I share the obsession/love of Incubus, so he gets my vote lol

[southernCal909]

@flipmanja...I guess ignorance is bliss...Kid cudi, really bro? your like the wolf in the sheep skin, people like you disband true art...

[flipmanja]

@southernCal909 Wtf. First of all, I must agree with you on the Kid Cudi comment, at the time I wrote this, the stuff he was putting out was fairly revolutionary for a MAINSTREAM hip hop artist - as we can't really describe him as underground anymore. Now, he's a bit shit.

[flipmanja]

@southernCal909 But dissing Cudi is one thing. Converting that into a personal attack against me however? You know nothing about me. How on earth has my (admittedly mistaken) mentioning of ONE artist completely depreciated my musical tastes as a whole? Or as you more audaciously put it, art. It's almost as if you posted that comment wanting to start some random youtube row. What the hell.

[byrongilliam]

@flipmanja exactly i hate when ppl turn a disagreement into an arguement cause nobody wins in the end

[RaVeRNaTiOn]

@flipmanja

Kid Cudi? Naa, maybe Lupe on the border line but not kid cudi

[gettinit4us]

from his words to the beats(exile).....we are lucky no blessed to have blue rappin... my favorite rapper next to tupac...and honestly aint nothin been out special since...eminem but hes too caught up in drugs and bs talk...keep pushin blu

[tigrelyl78]

Tupac=... overated, but I respect opinions.

And I dont know where you're leaving Mos Def and Talib Kweli man... Since Blackstar they've thrown out quality music and they still are...

PS: Blu, too nice

[gettinit4us]

Tupac = underated, still no one can come close compare or even be in the same leauge as him!

u thrown on one of his songs right now and he is still relevant and ahead of his time! deep, passionate caring, powerful, meaningful, motivating, i mean u name it!

mos and talib haha i respect them for there efforts of course but no where near tupac!

[yourzoidberg2]

any instrumental of this?

[namkooc]

blu is the greatest mc to emererge in last 10 years easily and the greatest mc alive

[kwesi216]

yea him and lupe..right?

[LiLfLiP94]

love blu's music, it's so smooth and soothing...favorite song from him gotta be 'fly'

[funkrusher]

AMAZING! My favorite Blu song of all time...today.

[101Licious]

Great tune, luv that beat. Awesome !! 5*

[TiNoO007]

that dope. But hes my Fav everything

hes much much much more than just a rapper.

there's a Holy Spirit when this man Speaks on the mic.

[Prophet6000]

Blu is so dope He is my official Favorite West coast artist

[HypaLink]

Just surpassed Grandma's Kitchen as the dopest Blu track ever.

[hijklmnop06]

Where i hear "Grandma's Kitchen",i wanna hear it bad,i'm a new found fan of Blu

[willensix]

i think his best song is coldhearted but this and alot of his other songs are continders

[kawz23]

@willensix

Blu doesnt have one best song, anything he touches is gold.

[Platano06]

one of the illest song and beat der is THUS FAR...keep em comin !!

[ACdouble007]

Blu is a fukin beast.

[Krcmeek]

dope real dope
