  • Hey does anyone know where the fuck I can get piano tabs for this I can't seem to find any

  • FOR ANYBODY STILL HATING WHITE PEOPLE FOR WHAT YOU SEE IN THIS VIDEO, YOU MUST HATE SOME BLACKS AS WELL, BECAUSE THIS IS NO DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WE'RE DOING TO ONE ANOTHER TODAY.

  • @ilovemusic3725 Your 100% right I feel the same way!

  • this should be showed in schools in history classes and discussed !

  • True conservatives in this country want prosperity for all, black and white. This video and song is an incredible artistic statement and it is beautiful, for people of all creeds and colors. Libertad...

  • Fuckin racists.

  • shlatontin braphus

  • Who gives a fuck if you're white, black, asian, purple skinned; we're all human

  • i luv this video

  • loll 2:00 "noo, no, nooooooooo"

  • Comment removed

  • I love this song. And NO, I'm not black. 

  • there will never be another outkast. their virsatilty and pure genious makes them my favorite group of all time as far as content and pushing the envelope. of course the wu is the best group of all time.as far as hip hop is concerned.

  • Rise & Shine. .

  • RIP Troy Davis

  • cee lo's voice is so annoying.love this song though

  • @dinjable Cee lo kills in this song...I know it's a bit whiney but I love it

  • I EFFEN LOVE IT..I BEEN JAMING THIS FOR YEARS

  • EVERYTIME i get below myself....i watch this video. and it lifts me up. The 9 people to dislike this video are living for yesterday. A pity to be them. Thank you Outkast Ceelo Badu and Rube for a classic. Shouts to seldomscene for the EPIC depiction and adaptation. Much respect and gratitude.

  • That comment below about the jews probably wasn't written by a Jew. Wake up to baiting.

  • Cee-lo and Big Ruge had the realest verses on this cause i could relate damn near word for word.

  • Fucking black racists. STFU! This music is Awesome, it transcends skin color...if you would just step the fuck out of the way. Neanderthals.

  • so relatively speaking we are all, simply, people.Some more developed than others no matter what your race may be. eastern Europeans and native Americans as well as Italians and every other race or creed has been oppressed at one time or another and granted the same group of men are without a doubt in charge of making history repeat itself,race aside. Power in numbers is not racist its truth the whole reason racism exists is to distort our ethereal connection. (-_-)

  • i sing this every week

  • Love this.

  • I understand stand how some white people might get tired of being accused for Black peoples problems and past atrocities that present White people had nothing to do with. I just feel trying to sweep it under a rug or saying" it was the past let it go" is completely wrong and non beneficial. We must learn from pass so we won't make the same mistakes in the future. We also all need to try walking in another man's shoes for a while. We have to learn from one another how it feels to be each other.

  • love this song

  • I being white have never hung or owned anyone ever, nor has any of my ancestors. Don't make the mistake of blaming color when that will just keep the hate going.

  • Everybody stop frontin, the song's called Liberation! Come together, stop separating, and listen to the music!

  • Being weary is one thing, but basing it on race is completely stupid, I'm sorry. Poverty causes crime, ignorance causes crime, but what doesn't cause crime, is a race. Do you seriously think all whites are born with the intent to harm blacks? REALLY?

  • I love all Outkast music, so true and unique. But this, by far is my favorite. This song as well as video just does something to me that I can't explain!

    ♥♥♥ Marashor ♥♥♥♥

  • @seldomscenepro. Thank you for this amazingly brilliant video. Bless.

  • watching this made me cry. so many of my ancestors recent and long ago were murdered because of hatred. we didn't ask for this shit. i swear i try to love all races equally but sometimes its just hard to when you know about shit like this. the white guy in the beginning helped me a lot though seeing him come to the aid of the black guy and helping fend off those wild demons attacking him. god just please make it better. please.

  • Some heavy material right herre

  • Comment removed

  • Portugues: 9 filhos da puta não sabem o que é ser negro!

    Ingles: 9 motherfuckers do not know what it means to be black!

  • Big Rube's part was powerful, @ 13 years old back in 1998 this song was life changing

  • did you make this video? or is it the original video? first time i hear this song and if you created the video you were right on spot with it

  • I for one am white, and think this song & album are dope as fuck.

  • I thank God for Aquemeni.

  • Great vid

  • very powerful video. thank you.

  • to Skigh45. Thank u for ur honesty. It is more and more evidence that in u dwells the evil one. The scriptures talks about u. The Devil, Beezelbub, Lucifer, the Beast. Continue to reveal urself, so the decendants of Ancient Kemet will know and recognize the Cracker is the devil, and not who they lied to us and said he was. It, indeed, is u!!

  • @samella35 may i ask why?

  • @samella35 I hope you know that thoughts like that ("the Cracker is the devil") are exactly the kind of thoughts that horrible people were thinking back in the day. You speak as if you are overcoming evil yet you spew out the same shit that starts horrific events like this in the first place. Race doesn't mean a damn thing. Just because statistics suggest something doesn't mean you can just slap a label on a group of people and problem solved. In fact, THAT is EXACTLY what creates them.

  • this song makes me glad that i was raised in a house hold that respects all races/people

  • @hallelu16 And also benefits from the Slavery of African people. To which u have no feeling of repayment.

  • Brilliant Album. Today's so-called rappers should listen.

  • its heart wrenching to see the hate once infested in my race, and how it was reflected upon the black community. its a prime example of how ignorance and the lack of understanding can diminish a society. education, liberation, and movement is what we all need to regain the powers that we all deserve as a human race. i lend my heart to the black community and support you all. god bless.

  • The song is great and lets not forget to thank the vid creator for putting such a powerfull visual to the song. Magnificent work!

  • This song makes me proud as fuck to be black.

  • the devil must have 8 you tube accounts for this masterpiece to have 8 dislikes

  • This reminds me why i hate the savage beast known as the cracka!!!

  • great video.i had to stop what i was doin to watch

  • Stunning

  • History should not be used for hate, but to learn from it. But, being

    a realest HISTORY repeats itself! 1 Love ~_*

  • This video starts off with some graffic scences that might upset you but listen to the song & watch it until the end & you will LOVE the message! BEST VIDEO ever!~

  • great vid! 

  • My favorite Outkast song Hands Down!!!!

  • There was alot of racism back then when white were being racist. Which when martin luther king was alive alot of other people was being racist. In 1700 to whats now going to be the future there is still going to be racism where ever you go. So racism must stop from now to the end. Where ever the end will end at.

  • Now this is some good hiphop music!

    Positive over negative

  • sons of noah we must c who we r where we r to go we live in this life thinkin that the hood is all we have so we live the curses that a forfathers have passed to us but for thing to change we have to change

    we have to talk about the change that we need to make back in the days of king & rosa we had love for each other but they have drove the wadge between us again as if we are on the plantaion stil we have to break the chain & the curse and if u want to no the curse we live read deuteronomy

  • 6 motherfuckas hate the liberation of an oppressed people.

  • The most talented race in HISTORY!

  • @FknGvna no...u stupid dumbass there is no THE MOST TALENTED in terms of race...

  • @FknGvna just another nigga creating division....

  • GREAT WORK MY BROTHERS!!!!!

  • Been loving this since 88! A lot of people still sleep the message. You got it right. Excellent and Salute!!

  • I am from London, and it really really honestly pains me to see a lot of young black man acting so foolish...i think they need to sit back and watch this video and just see how much pain people before us went through just so we can be free

  • Whooooooooooooo was sleeping on this album. Point them out?

  • more people should listen to stuff like this! something that has insight and substance to feed your mind

  • These videos I'm watchin' seem so long ago... But they're not! I'm just thankful I wasn't brought up with this kind of mentality, but yeh this is shockin'....

  • liberate your mind and fly high

  • deep shit....

  • i love everyone who loves me

  • i don't think we in kansas no more

  • REALLY LISTEN TO THIS YA'LL... LOVE AND LIVE LIFE LIBERATED

  • my feeling of liberation is somehow bittersweet at the moment. hearin this for the ump-tenth time seems different after hearing the news of 9ppl shout and killed 4 NO REASON on the Chicago's southside 79&Western...my prayers and thoughts are with those loved them(Damn this songis deep az hell on soooo many levels.....Peace&Progress

  • This is some real shit right here. Real music. Real message. Real life.

  • terrible documentaire sur la condition black dans les années 60 aux USA

  • Try to stay sane, it's the price of fame

    Spending your life trying to numb the pain

    You shake that load off and sing a song

    Liberate the minds, then you go on home

    Thank YOU My Brothas, Sisters, Elders for your Sacrifices. Giving the WORLD your Heart..AMEN.

  • Understand the message Suckas

  • see this jam has a real old school flavor to it. there ain,t no more groups like outkast that can put it down like they use too

  • Its been far too long...far too long to keep

    hatin ourselves like this...what da fck does it take to get us to WAKE

    DA FCK UP...please...cause i dont know how long we can take this befor

    were all gone...

  • Fucking white people think they are the rulers of the planet.

    I look at these images and it makes me so proud of the black people who fought this oppression - its must have been horrifying.

    I wish i could go back in time and help out - but i also understand there is still so much to do to fight inequality on a global level.

    Freedom and equality to all men and women no matter of race, sex, sexuality.

    one day i hope...

  • @2dboy they want you proud to be black bcz black only has history in slavery. We are not African nor American. (Native American we are as well) But we are Hebrew thats y they attacked us & stil do us and our Nrth American "Indian" brothers also Hebrew Cherokee Creek. The 12 tribes of Ysrael the real is us. Also jamaica haiti Dominican repub cuba also some of us in brazil look it up. The bible is our heritage our lineage. th black thing is a white racist creation. Our only heritage is spiritual

  • @2dboy not all white people think that - dont fall into the hater trap 

  • @2dboy saying "fucking white people" is the ignorant shit the people in this beautiful song were complaining against. re-phrase your statement to "fucking IGNORANT ASSHOLES" and that would groove more cooly with this "old-uncool peace loving friendly whiteguy"

  • @jallison79 point taken

  • @jallison79 That is why I say fucking racists rather than say fuckin white people.

  • @2dboy all men were not born equal. hebrews the nation of ysrael of the bible were born superior to every race on earth. this is why all the other had us in slavery we sinned against the Most High and He gave th whites arabs and others power to enslave and murder us bcz we turned away frm His laws & statues & the whites and Catholicism took our hebrew scriptures& told th wrld it was 4 everyone. Frm Roman back to Genesis only pertains to Afro Latinos & Negroes, Nrth Ame/Afro Indians Negroes.

  • @24kingpinn sure,, you just keep on believin' that...

  • @24kingpinn you are misinformed....or seriously stupid...god said that the favor the hebrews was not because they were better than any other ...he said they were stubborn as mules or something to that effect but he promised abraham issac and jacob that they would be prosperous...god is a god of his word..its somewhere in genisis...hebrews shouldnt feel that theyh are better than anybody else in the world and that goes for whites blacks and arabs too...we all got faults

  • @24kingpinn the rest of what you said sounds super retarded

  • @2dboy "Fucking white people think they are the rulers of the planet."

    I see your intent, but to wish for freedom and equality for all after cursing white people as a whole is a bit of a contradiction. I am white, and I hate the fact of the way blacks have been treated in the history of my country, so it clearly isn't all "fucking white people".

    All man are created equal in the sight of God.

  • @cKunke2 seriously, i think all the "white people" who are upset by my comment should suck it up - fact is that it is "white people" who have (more than any other) suppressed and enslaved others, so while its true many white people are not to blame, my generalization has a root in truth. The truth tends to hurt.

    I also dont give a fuck about the sight of god - i am more interested in the reality of the world

  • @2dboy Alright just thought I would give my opinion. Good luck to you in your quest of live. God bless

  • @cKunke2 thank you. i hope you have a great life too and wish you the best

  • @2dboy "I also dont give a fuck about the sight of god". Hands down that has to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard someone say on youtube. Pure ignorance at its finest. Let me guess... You think you just appeared out of thin air? May i ask who you feel is responsible for you even existing? You? If your answer is yes please explain.

  • @TakeOffBeatsInc wow, you must not get around yt much if this is the dumbest comment you have read.

    i guess i upset your perception that god is real or something.

    i dont think i appeared out of thin air - i know that certain cells divided and i grew into this.

    i dont believe some omnipotent god created the universe. Do i know how the first piece of matter came into being? No. But do i then make the assumption some "god" did it? Umm, no.

    why not just believe it was ronald mcdonald?

  • @2dboy ok fine as man i respect anyones faith or non faith. But to say you've upset my perception? Dude just like your hard up on the theory that , some god as you put it, is not responsible for our existence I'm am just as hard up on the belief that god is real. Certain cells divided? On a scientific level that may sound accurate and justify your beliefs but honestly certain cells dividing makes the creation of life sound simplified, dumbed down at the very least.

  • @TakeOffBeatsInc you dont respect my non faith because you said it was the dumbest thing you have ever heard (i.e. read).

    was i harsh with the "i dont give a fuck"? Yes. I could have been more polite about it

    i know as a human i am limited in my understanding of what is around me (sort of like a fish cant grasp a concept such as irony - it doesnt have the capacity) - so I can only surmise that god is a concept created by us, to explain what we cant understand. Its simplified. Most believe

  • 6/12/10 35,609 ? Don't miss the video by this person featuring Mr.Shakur's "They don't really care about us!" And also find Thomas Sankara !

  • I love this song, and you couldn't have put together a better video....... thank you so much....... I'll never forget the people who died and the way they died for me to be able to be "equal". Brothers and sisters need to watch this and realise that you aint gotta shake ya ass or be on the cornerslanging, you better than that. but thats what we reduced to..... wake up!

  • pretty ghetto quality music video, but that's its charm. until watching this i couldn't really put a feeling to the american's black oppression issues

  • Love this song it's the best on this album..whatever happen to conciousness in our music? Love U Outkast 4life!!!

  • Power To The People!

    P. roper E. ducation A. chieves C. onstant E. levation

  • This is power, and yes Liberation is something everyone in this world should practice.

  • outkast so diverse in hip hop and soul music very good stuff

  • I got a black panther tattood on my bak bcuz of this song....OutKast got soo reel wit this song....Aquamini is a legendary album period....its sad nowadays cuz black ppl still argue & dispute ova things that r minor....we need 2 realize that we r tha last of dying breed....& tha sad part is we're killing eech otha....with mo than guns....we dont educate ourselves, we let ppl make decisions 4 us, deep down we still have that fear of slavery engraved on our hearts....we have liberate...

  • Deep,real and powerful ! I'm lose for words.

  • the best video i have seen to this track...very good :) 5 Stars

  • I swear I hate seeing videos of police beating black men. I lose my appetite!! It sickens me literally.

  • This one hits me like that one time when i went to go and get some jordans than this fag juss slapped me hard across the face and he yelled "fuck you i wanted those"

  • This is so powerful

  • Really, you did a song called "Liberation" in 07 and somehow feel that OutKast stole it? Hey, dumbass, this song was the at the end of Aquemeni...which came out in 1998.

  • Best put together music video on youtube.

  • @Caspian50: Do us all a favor and either shut the fuck up or blow your inbred mother fucking brains out!! Let me tell all of you racist fucks across America and world something. Love conquers all. You may have a large group of supporters for your stupidity, intolerance, and ignorance, but you can never, ever, break the group we have. We outnumber you wastes of sperm who should have ended up on a bathcloth. It's 2009 and you've lost already. Can't live with that, kill yourself. No other option.

  • I hate to say it, but I think I agree with you. Racism & unwarranted prejudice bothers me worse than anything else...

  • Revolution for the opressed and hope for the out numbered. God will smile down upon us to live for a better tomorrow even when times seem to be rough!.

  • This song has kept me up till 4.30 for weeks, I LOVE IT!!

  • and that was for you Caspian.Go hang yourself from a tree.fuckin racist.

  • i didn't know that there is so much hate between people...sad

  • Come 'round my way spewing that hate, you won't get hate, vengeance, or violence. You'll see people who feel sorry for you, because you hold so much anger within. You'll find people who'll pray for you & wish you the best despite you hate...you could learn from the people you discriminate against, based in your comment, you need to learn.

  • AmEN...

  • Black people were not the one's sicking dogs on children and women hanging men and discrimanating based off fear and hate we are not the one's keeping peace from happening..IT'S THE DEVIL and i'm not talking about pitch fork and horns fire and brimstone YOU DIG!DON'T FEAR REVOLUTION BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY because they will keep melanated beings oppressed BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY!!!!!GOD BLESS THE CHILD THAT CAN HOLD HIS/HER OWN-Billie Holiday..POWER TO MY PEOPLE!!!!!!!! Hotep

  • @bornready79 I can dig it. Right on. Why can't they see? The day is coming..... will it be too late?

  • @bornready79 Power to THE People

  • @bornready79 black people are just as capable of anything white people are capable of. hypothetically, it could have all happened backwards, with white people being outcasted and mistreated, had civilization been more established in africa instead of europe and america. don't play for teams, if we're black and white than malato kids would be grey, so i guess no one is actually black or white.

  • @ratfinkskates Thank you, I don't understand why his comment is so highly rated. It's so ignorant. Don't fight discrimination by discriminating against someone else, that's just hypocritical. "white people" didn't do those atrocities, people did. When you include color in someone's description all you're doing is spreading racism even more. If you hate racism, don't spread it yourself... -.- Thanks so much for beating me to that comment.

  • @RyougaSadou yeah "people" did those atrocities, but how many of them were asian, hispanic, native american, black.... exactly. we have a right to be leery of those that did us wrong for so long. i know whites also helped us out, but don't try to call him racist for calling out whats REAL. more whites were harming than hurting.

  • @88infinity20 Look at other countries, plenty of other races did that same kind of horrible shit to people. And if he's judging someone based on their race he is... that's the epitome of racism... -.- Of course "mostly whites" did this... because the country was ran by mostly whites... You throw 1 fact in my face and ignore another, I don't understand that kind of logic. The point is, it's not the race that determines the person, it's the situation they're put in, why can't you see that?

  • I swear man... people's opinions nowadays sadden me. They see shit like this and think "oh look a white man is beating on a black man which means all white men are probably bad people who want to destroy other races." Don't you understand that kind of logic is what created shit like this in the first place? All races have assholes, hypocrites, racists, saints, idiots, geniuses, etc etc etc. It's the person people! Not the fucking color of their skin... If history matters to u, look at ALL OF IT!

  • @RyougaSadou like i said before, don't get mad at the truth. if out of 100 people beating black people, 90 of them are white, don't get saddenend when we make an assumption from our observation and say hmm there sure seem to be a lot of those white guys beating on these black guys for no good reason.

  • @88infinity20 And like I said before, don't preach truth until you know what it is. That is the same shit as saying out of 2000 murders in houston 1900 were from blacks, so lets all be paranoid of black people and instantly chunk our wallet at them if they approach us. -.- You have to understand statistics before using them to assume things. It's the situation people are put in. Only difference race makes is how they're treated by prejudice people such as yourself.

  • @RyougaSadou . from your experiences in 1900(?) houston i would be weary to live around black and wouldn't want to raise my family around them either because facts speak for themselves. you can get mad at the act, but you also gotta see why that person is being that way. blacks in this country were put here and forced to abandon our history, of course some will act out especially in bad situations. im just wondering why white people get a pass from you for hating us for no logical reason.

  • @88infinity20 It was a made up statistic. I don't know what I can say to further explain this to you. If you want to live in fear of certain races, be my guest. But don't come preaching your bullshit to other people like it's fact. So what if statistics say one thing, they are statistics. People aren't numbers you idiot. Just because some blacks/whites did one thing doesn't mean they all are the same. Be weary, MAYBE, but don't act as if you already know someone before you've met them, jesus...

  • @RyougaSadou ah look at the little baby that resorts to name calling because i don't agree with him/her. grow up. you punk ass probably talk all this but got mad hate in your heart. look how you responding to me on here, trying to prove your point. just imagine if somebody pissed you off in real life. of course you'd be to bitch to do anything physical besides maybe utter something under your weak ass breath. and don't try to make it seem like i live in fear of anything. god is all i fear.

  • @88infinity20 I like how you COMPLETELY avoided the argument because you have no idea what to say. And yes, I called you an idiot, once. How many times did you name call me just now? :/ Reason you're an idiot is because you think a skin color determines what a person is and does. You're an idiot because you use statistics for your defense while ignoring the true statistics. And you're also an idiot because you look at one side of history while ignoring world history. Bravo, Idiot.

  • @RyougaSadou haha whatever man i said my point originally, and you keep coming back. fact remains that you are trying to twist the truth and put violence equally on all races when at least in america its proven that whites have been the most violent and corrupt of all people. i know my history, and excuse me if after 400 years of my ancestors being slaves i'm a little weary of certain types of people. it is what it is though. you just can't admit the same.

  • @88infinity20 Also don't try to group me in with you on hatred. I may hate criminals and horrible people that have done these things but I'm sure not some ignorant person who thinks I "figured out" what a certain race is like.
