Ro Spit & Monica Blaire - Renaissance State of Mind ( Official Video ) by VANDAL

[MJFLovesMusic84]

Bumpin this song to get hyped for the playoff game tonight. I've watched the Lions every Sunday for as long as I remember, including every week of the 2008 season. The Lions define this city, and so does this song. It will be great again with a renaissance state of mind. GO LIONS!

[ItOffishul]

Empire State of Mind came in my Pandora so I was like screw that and came here

[persnlgrthnow]

[sekoukim]

DAAS Choir - Detroit State of Mind 

[sekoukim]

I love the D, and MB, but this video only reps one segment of the D! I think the rap and the video could have been better. The youngsters from Detroit Academy of the Arts and Sciences had a more positive/uplifting version that focused on the D, and not Royal Oak, and Troy and certainly didn't have to add a lyric about Pontiac, use the N word or focus solely on materialism. IJS!

[AndrewsCellCam]

@sekoukim The guy who made this is from Pontiac, and owns Burn Rubber in Royal Oak, so that's why he reps them. But the message of the song is even though he's from Pontiac when ever he's out of town he still says he's from Detroit. The DAAS Choir one is cute but it's a joke when you have these 12 year olds sing about their cars.

[sekoukim]

@AndrewsCellCam ...Still could have been more uplifting and less limiting!

[sekoukim]

@AndrewsCellCam ...I still think it could have been better and more marketable...the babies at DAAS, at least showed the stadiums and museums. Like I said I love the D and Monica Blaire, but this could have been better! Heck we all don't walk around sayin Nig**A this Ni**A that and focus on what this rapper portrays. How about a remake?

[Pages225]

somebody get this shit on I-tunes. 

[SwantonKing313]

[TestosteroneDrone]

Unless you've lived in Detroit, you can't define "struggle". You make it out, the rest of your life is a layup. Any obstacle in your way can't compare to the shit you've already seen. If what don't kill you makes you stronger, 7 mile made me invincible, dig?

[MattCason]

[realwestvision]

For the D what up though! Inspired a ninja! Smart though.. Dtown in his ville, stand up shade on.

[frickinfrak]

gotta say i'm disappointed. nice to see my city represented but on the real, its alwayz kinda tricky when u "remake" catz songs. honestly, if they were gonna do this i think they should've done an original beat. but still, i've got much love for ro and monica. and whoever said that raven symone comment... that's fucked up. i think raven symone is hot and i think monica is hot, too. she got her own style. she ain't tryin to be out here like wack azz beyonce

[lucily2608]

I Looooove it!!!

[cairosshorty3]

this is sick

[Dimce84]

Fuck your shity ass city and your shitty ass rappers....You wanna hear a good remix, check out Chicago state of mind.. SLY P CHI TOWN STAND UP!

[loveandtheft21]

@Dimce84

That is literally a joke. Chicago is a terrible city. Detroit is the most ballin city around. I would rather jump off the Ren Cen then live in Chicago

[Itsgotahemi]

@loveandtheft21 your fukn gay chi town bitch

[HordeOfUndead]

I checked out that song, and man that shit is so weak. By the way Chicago sucks.

[jayrock545i]

yak town yea boi ....detroit greenfield fenkell wats gud!!

[LuckyEpiphany]

Listening to this me me Proud to be from Detroit (Although i'm from Yachtown). Love it Ro Spit and Monica.

[desean13]

i got love my city!!! an my city got love for me!! detroit stand the fuck upp!!! buff fare aint shit to a D BOY! BUMZ!!!

[EverydayLife567]

I love this song. It's just something about all the places that you go to at least once a month talked about in a song.

[lup3f1a5c0]

Woow, fuckin terrible! Give me as many thumbs dwn as u want. Call me a fuckin hater, i dgaf. Shit was wack! N the dude that said this was better than Jay's version is a fuckin retard. Notice the only fuckers actually sayin this crap is gud r 4rm Detroit themselves. Smh, epic fail...n oh yea, that bitch luk like a unfashionable Raven Symone! And can't sing at that, smh!!

[Supachamploo08]

Nice! Detroit area is well represented!

[YakTownRecords]

Yak Town all day

[javacoder411]

"It's ashame most yall want get signed, me I don't give a fuck..." yeah, I like :)

[BOSS282]

Dat was Kold

[SnortnSnowflakes]

Yak Town what up.

[robandkee]

Hey its KeanaMonique, and Ro Spit.. do you thang.. I"m proud to know you, keep doing what u do best..fuck them haters, they just give u inspiration...

[robandkee]

Ro Spit.. do yo thang homie... I"m proud to know you.. keep it going... make us proud.. fuck all the negative haters they will continue to be ur inspiration....

[Detroit4Eva]

I thought about doing this as well. I would have liked it better if the chorus didn't stunt about "raising thugs". Isn't the rep of my city bad enough?

Give me a thumbs down all you want, but bragging about raising thugs is not the way to go. Nice idea, not so great execution. Too bad. Both artist's are really talented. I have seen Monica Blair in person and she has some pipes on her.

[1Queen1Maat]

With his Burn rubber Jacket on.. DETROIT ALL DAY>>WELL Royal OAk

[TheChey0]

Shout out to those Doughboys and Doughgirls

[haaaileee8D]

Wow, this is sick as hell. Yeah i'm from Detroit too, and this kid a couple down makes no sense. Just cause you live in Michigan doesnt mean your not allowed to have nice stuff, i'm right up there with you, this is the city, not the suburbs dude; it has noting to do with you, quit hateing, sorry :(

[TheRachelAnn123]

D-Boy's version? Mmmm, much better in my opinion. It actually talks about the economic problems, and the real shit.

[dtowncheddaboi]

I need this Ringtone

[DuhduhduhDBOY]

I remixed this song as well, however mine is about the economic and concurrent psychological turmoil running rampant in Detroit and how it affects the rest of the state. Check it out on my channel.

[MrRandallW]

I'm from Michigan, and this is horrible. What ever happened to rap music that actually is good to listen to.

"I got cars, nice clothes, and life is good." I remember when rap actually had artistic meaning behind it, and didn't brag about what they made.

Put some meaning behind it, and talk about how the people loosing their jobs, their houses, not being able to afford food for their kids. You know... emotion

[lewis1rg]

this is exactly whats wrong with Detroit. All the shit thats going wrong with this god damn city/state and all you can talk about is you, your boys/clothes/cars....how original.

[jin455]

ow actually really good except the girl. alicia is better.

[naruto54]

It's spelled Piedmont. i would know because I grew up on Piedmont, 4 houses away from the Liquor store on Joy. And cut the whole "7 mile is gay" bullshit. We're all from Detroit, take pride in that.

[playajake18]

i wunder y he didnt say "catch me whoever at a tigers game shit i made tiger hat more famous than a tiger can" and when he was saying the bright lights part he shouldve been downtown at night instead of in front of motorcity casino but other than that i like the song but if u feel me on the part about the tigers or the light reply to this and yes im from detroit in case ur wundering
