AlexsLens You're not the only one! I liked it too! :) I can't understand all these dislikes, the song is very catchy and I think Shamir is so talented, unfortunately these stupid haters can't see this.
i actually really liked this, its like MGMT mixed with Prince or something. I feel like this wouldn't have nearly as many dislikes if it was a female singing this same song.
Astro Plays Why would he suffer from anything? He looks rather happy to me... while you on the other hand seem rather miserable, bitter and homophobic.
I feel like I've gone back in time. This song is awesome. I can understand disliking the song because you genuinely dislike the song.. but because of his sexuality? Seriously? You're that shitty of a person that you only see who a person is attracted to? Why are you looking at people based on attraction? He doesn't exist for you. Enjoy the music.
+Skank he has said that he is "gay" so no she isnt making assumptions. i said "gay" because he is gender queer, meaning he goes from male to female. Gay is a male attracted to another male, but he transitions between the male and female therefore he believes he is not gay.
Jared Devon Could you link me the vid/interview/whatever where he says he is gay. And gender queer doesnt have to mean you switch between genders. Maybe you are thinking of gender fluid?
he is genderqueer. but i did make a mistake by saying he goes between male and female because he does not identify as either. there is a link. www.out.com/hot-list/2015/5/04/hot-list-shamir
What a remarkably innovative and clever young person. The interview with him on NPR was quite delightful. Wishing him well; may his talents take him wherever he wishes to go.
+Aleisha Nesbitt oh if you attended him live then that's a different story, I believe you now cause I haven't seen him live but I really like his music
Brandon Covington Ya, now that I think back. But this was one of the first ones I have seen in a few months or so. Im more of a radio guy, youtube wise, I like to watch gaming.
I feel like if this was the 90's people wouldn't be ripping this video so much. Because this has a very fun dancey 90s sound. And artists back then were less afraid to be creative or different, especially when it came to music videos. Now, people are so narrow-minded and critical--ready to write off something before giving it a chance.
I've been looking for this song for ages and I've finally found it! When I was a sophomore I heard it in class and went home and tried to search the lyrics but never found it and now I'm 20 and heard it again while watching Catfish! Funny how the universe works, I love this song.
I know right! I LOVE shamir so much! Like people stop hating and calling him mickey mouse like if your going to say something rude just dont its not worth it! Leave if you dont like him jeez.
yo when this first came out it was introduced on MTV and his songs immediately became my shit for the whole year. i miss him :( but wait people were hating this whole time???????????? HOW
i played this song the whole 6 months my daughter, her husband and the 4 grandkids lived in a studio apartment. Gave 7 recommendations to help themselves. This song gave me the courage to say no. Thank You Shamir! my hero/ine and i'm twice your age!!
ATTENTION TO THE RUDE PEOPLE: Just because YOU don't happen to like Shamir's music does not mean it's horrible in general. It might be horrible to you but everyone has different influences, taste, and a different ear than the next person
Shamir is a wonderful, talented guy. It annoys me so much that there are so many dislikes on these videos that have been premiered on the Awards Playlist because they've been exposed to the pop loving population who don't get how fantastic these pieces of art are.
Shamir Bailey North Las Vegas It’s not time to get started It’s time to call it off I’ve been trying to find a reason to keep us together Try to make up my bed of lies and call the night my shelter It’s time to call it off And this time, it’s not my fault It’s time to walk out the door It’s time to get gone It’s time to walk out the door It’s time to You tried to blindfold me from the pain you breathe And you said you’d never leave You had me blame myself, question my mental health Like I’m the one who needed questioning It’s time to call it off And this time, it’s not my fault [x2] It’s time to walk out the door It’s time to get gone It’s time to walk out the door It’s time to [x2] Just can’t make a thot a wife No more basic, ratchet guys Listen up, I’m saving you From all the hell that you’ll go through [x2] It’s time to call it off And this time, it’s not my fault [x2] It’s time to walk out the door It’s time to get gone It’s time to walk out the door It’s time to [x2]
Yes he has such a unique androgynous (gender-neutral) quality he a true countentenor which is a rare form of it called a tenor Altino they have a quality sound that between male and female simultaneously and they still retain their high Tessitura they have in puberty despite them having lower notes added in puberty
Pretty catchy song, wish it were longer, though. It's funny how many people hate it because it's "weird". People born in the 40s-50s think the same way about modern bands/artists now, so reading the comments just tells you who is going to end up as one of those annoying crotchety old people who doesn't enjoy anything.
![Shamir - In For The Kill [Official HD Video]](/img/n.gif)
Who’s HERE IN 2024 BABY!! Been following Shamirs music for 9 years since this dropped
I saw him live last night when he opened for Marina and the Diamonds, and he's amazing live! I loved his performance!
+Dominic Gutierrez I agree, he has all this potential and conection with the public, I've seen him live befour, that was entertainment
+Dominic Gutierrez i saw him opening for troye sivan and he was AMAZING!!
Dominic Gutierrez I saw him open for Marina as well!!! I loved his performance also!
I actually really love this! I might be the only one but idec😉
AlexsLens You're not the only one! I liked it too! :) I can't understand all these dislikes, the song is very catchy and I think Shamir is so talented, unfortunately these stupid haters can't see this.
Joel Silva I like the song , and i think he is talented, but the video will give me nightmares.
elizabeth jarrett I 100% agree with you
elizabeth jarrett lol
I love this! And it better than Friday!
i actually really liked this, its like MGMT mixed with Prince or something. I feel like this wouldn't have nearly as many dislikes if it was a female singing this same song.
Drew Thomas Totally agree with you. Shamir 326 is AWESOME.
Amen i was thinking the same thing people are just being stupid and ignorant , i personally think the video is awsome and very creative

I love this! Don't understand all the hate.
Astro Plays Hes obviously a human, not a bundle of sticks.
Jacob Anastasi Sticks don't penetrate each other, silly.
Astro Plays Good one. : )
Listen to I Know Its a Good Thing by Shamir, wayyyy better.
Astro Plays Why would he suffer from anything? He looks rather happy to me... while you on the other hand seem rather miserable, bitter and homophobic.
His songs are so good and his videos are so fun and unique. How can you nit like him?
knit* (it's a silent k)
Lonely Hearts Club Not*** not nit** 😂
I don't like funk so...
Ahead of its time really

You're that shitty of a person that you only see who a person is attracted to? Why are you looking at people based on attraction? He doesn't exist for you. Enjoy the music.
+Rigora Z Has he even said what his sexuality is? Or are you just making assumptions based on the way he acts/talks?
+Skank he has said that he is "gay" so no she isnt making assumptions. i said "gay" because he is gender queer, meaning he goes from male to female. Gay is a male attracted to another male, but he transitions between the male and female therefore he believes he is not gay.

This would be a sick Runway song.
This should’ve been even bigger than it was
What a remarkably innovative and clever young person. The interview with him on NPR was quite delightful. Wishing him well; may his talents take him wherever he wishes to go.
im blown away by the uniqueness and confidence! this is so different its amazing !
their whole album is so fucking good! i love how talented they are
He sound so uniquely Androgynous (gender neutral)
He is fucking awesome! I can't wait to continue to see his come up in the music industry.
kinda sounds like lcd soundsystem.
theneedledrop wo really random finding you here right now
or not, review his new album bruhbruh
theneedledrop except this is actual garbage.
theneedledrop I would really like to hear your opinion on the album. Review? Maybe?
Or Scissor Sisters.
why so many dislikes? this guy clearly has a great voice and amazing potential to be on the top charts.
+Aleisha Nesbitt I think he has great potential as well, but great voice IDK
+ahmed altabie idk i really like his voice. he's even more amazing live.
+Aleisha Nesbitt oh if you attended him live then that's a different story, I believe you now cause I haven't seen him live but I really like his music
you haven't heard him live
+Rys iek unfortunately not 😢
I swear, music videos are getting weirder and weirder.
i feel you lol
music videos were always weird. get with it.
Brandon Covington Ya, now that I think back. But this was one of the first ones I have seen in a few months or so. Im more of a radio guy, youtube wise, I like to watch gaming.
The Golden Cat Army This isn't that weird of music video. I suggest looking at some flying lotus music videos.
Amoré People Im interested but should I be warned of anything.
This is fucking cool what the fuck. Try your luck in the UK, I feel this sound will be appreciated.
This comment section is cancer

What is with all the hate? This song is slay!
Omg my comment 4 years ago, lmfao. Still a catchy song
@@alfiewhitnell1387 ello welcome back
People saying THIS video is wierd have not seem much of the internet have they? lmao
Love as always.
man...this is nostalgic for some reason
Yea i was thinking the same thing. I never was into this song wven but i remember when it was on whatever medium i was consuming it through
squish cakes Apple Music free
I've been looking for this song for ages and I've finally found it! When I was a sophomore I heard it in class and went home and tried to search the lyrics but never found it and now I'm 20 and heard it again while watching Catfish! Funny how the universe works, I love this song.
I keep playing this on & on dancing my ass off laughing at people loving to hate. The best way to fight it. Keep going Shamir. I love it.
I love him so much how can people be hating??
I Know
Cuz his music is audible trash.
Because of the Spotify ads.
I know right! I LOVE shamir so much! Like people stop hating and calling him mickey mouse like if your going to say something rude just dont its not worth it! Leave if you dont like him jeez.
I love this human being with my heart and soul. I'm obsessed with his singing voice! Keep it up! I'd love to see more of your music.
This has a really good beat to it. For some reason I get a 90's feeling from this..
Are people not noticing the unique, refreshing music? Instead, people are too busy complaining that he isn't like everybody else.
WHAT THE HELL! WHY SO MANY DISLIKES?
BestChannelVEVO™ Because the song is terrible.
BestChannelVEVO™ Because he's black and gay
Because he's trying to be a modern Michael Jackson.
No one can do it.
FUCK THIS SHIT.
Manuel Alejandro
I am glad a guy with a DBZ picture agrees :)
Denks ;)
AHHH I FINALLY FOUND THIS SONG AFTER 4 YEARS FUCK YEAH LETS GOOOOOOOO 9 YEAR OLD ME IS MENTALLY SCREAMING
Sameeeeeee
I have a feeling that the shocking about of dislikes is because Shamir is black and gay. And that's a shame.
No, it's not. It's 21st century, gay people are accepted. The reason the song has so many dislikes is because the song is fucking annoying.
But are black people accepted? Not really. Look at the news, boo.
Ok there, racist.
luxlagerfeld What a racist
xlights Read some books
I love the fact that they're agender. This song, imo, is actually quite good and they look awesome. I need to listen to more of their music :P
cant get enough of this melody
Shamir has so much talent. They are so amazing!
Love his androgynous voice he sound like a mix of a mix of a high male and woman
yo when this first came out it was introduced on MTV and his songs immediately became my shit for the whole year. i miss him :( but wait people were hating this whole time???????????? HOW
Why do I find watching muppets groove so appealing? XD love the song
i played this song the whole 6 months my daughter, her husband and the 4 grandkids lived in a studio apartment. Gave 7 recommendations to help themselves. This song gave me the courage to say no. Thank You Shamir! my hero/ine and i'm twice your age!!
Love the puppets man!
Just read your article in las Vegas weekly..then HAD to you tube you. Awesome look, sound and feel ! Congrats.
This is absolutely amazing. His songs are so goddamn catchy!
Revolutionary
I'm on a binge! Great music! How the hell did this kid not know about Chicago House!? He's a natural.
Best music video EVER!! Totally worth my time I love the muppets
ATTENTION TO THE RUDE PEOPLE: Just because YOU don't happen to like Shamir's music does not mean it's horrible in general. It might be horrible to you but everyone has different influences, taste, and a different ear than the next person
Been looking for this for years.
Who in 2024 🎉
IDK ABOUT Y'ALL BUT I REALLY LIKE THIS
Love this so much. Ugh.
Ever since i first saw you on colbert, i've been obsessed!! Seriously great beat!!
I really enjoy this track from a young artist. For sure much better that shit the people usually admires.
Not the worst thing I've seen on the internet. It doesn't deserve that many dislikes.
OMG. This song is great Shamir 326 You're AWESOME.
This song has an 80's vibe. That pretty much means I really like the music.
Lazy town is back YEEEES
you are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING GODDAMN!!!
Shamir is a wonderful, talented guy. It annoys me so much that there are so many dislikes on these videos that have been premiered on the Awards Playlist because they've been exposed to the pop loving population who don't get how fantastic these pieces of art are.
this is song is definitely falling into a sub genre of pop tho
Great video! Loved it! Wishing you the best :) love from Minnesota
i like it. it's something new and original
You are truly original and have a great sound, Shamir. Keep it up! The world needs more true artistry like this! This song is really fun!
Mona, você arrasa mt 🇧🇷🔥
Banger. Listening to this again after a lot of years
Próximamente en MTV. Coming Soon
I thought I saw this on MTV the first time tho
Shamir is 2 damn good, need that album rn!!!
i feel like i watched a mixture of Ed Sheeran's sing, a Michael Jackson song, and a Meghan Trainor setting....and it didn't end very well
haha soo true
Music_Is_My_Saviour XoXo omg yes hahaha
This is so cool. And you are beautiful! Thanks for a classic tune.
this song is terrible
._.
IT IS THOU LIKE WHAT THE FUCK
amen
Yeah, YMA is another piece of mainstream shit.
This is the best song so far in this playlist
I absolutely love this song
It’s a feel good, dance around Fun song 😊
Love this song! They're always playing it at my job thanks H&M!
Shamir Bailey
North Las Vegas
It’s not time to get started
It’s time to call it off
I’ve been trying to find a reason to keep us together
Try to make up my bed of lies and call the night my shelter
It’s time to call it off
And this time, it’s not my fault
It’s time to walk out the door
It’s time to get gone
It’s time to walk out the door
It’s time to
You tried to blindfold me from the pain you breathe
And you said you’d never leave
You had me blame myself, question my mental health
Like I’m the one who needed questioning
It’s time to call it off
And this time, it’s not my fault
[x2]
It’s time to walk out the door
It’s time to get gone
It’s time to walk out the door
It’s time to
[x2]
Just can’t make a thot a wife
No more basic, ratchet guys
Listen up, I’m saving you
From all the hell that you’ll go through
[x2]
It’s time to call it off
And this time, it’s not my fault
[x2]
It’s time to walk out the door
It’s time to get gone
It’s time to walk out the door
It’s time to
[x2]
Please reply,I need to screenshot this on my computer.And im on mobile right now.

I saw him when he opened for Troye Sivan and I'm kinda obsessed now
This sounds like 80's music which is fantastic!!!!
Good Job bro.
*may i ask why it got so many dislikes ??*
i love it how he doesn't give a shit and just continues doing what he likes
'on the regular' and 'if it wasn't true' are really good though
Oh, you're trying something new? How dare you! Take one dislike sir!
You are an idiot, my sir
+M&M25 You, my sir, do not understand sarcasm.
+Emrah Altay you, my sir, have no idea
haha its a great coment, and yeah is sarcasm ;)
This song is creative and so fun. I adore him. Focus on the music. This artist is AMAZING!!!!
So this is what being on LSD feels like..... interesting
you have such a classical voice and I love it
I loved this . Oh em gee ... Why everyone so salty in the comments 😒?
I love his music style people need this in their life❤️😍👌
don't tell me people are disliking this because of a puppet :(
I don't get why someone have to publish their hate, keep it to yourself so no one have to see them and get hurt.
301+ views club.
you've just got yourself a new fan ..
*HUE BR*
omg i love this song and all of his other songs his voice is magic

I love Shamir! Very fresh and perfectly 80's.
