Crazy how Pharell is calm and collected while the entire song is playing and then goes absolutely crazy when it ends
True showman
Thats mah boi
He was showing respect by not interrupting and giving ye his full attention
...then again it was how Ye dropped those 'left eye, Aaliyah, Romeo' bars at the end of that verse
Can't mess with it, he knows only too well.. you gotta let it ride. Even a smile can disrupt someone's flow
The determination in his voice. No one was going to stop this man.
Yup not even jay z hating ass could stop kayne from being bigger then him.
ong and yea all them boys was hating and was tryna play ye, scarface got exposed😭😭
@@rubski-ds9yc Aren't they cool now
@@davideventili2881 no they not
He was a legend back then and he still is.
who else got chills?
Me lol
I did just from watching Pharell listening to it and knowing how good the verse was!
Edrice91 Yooo big time chills
When Kanye recked on it
The fact that he just thought of all that just by listening for 2 minutes
THANK YOU COODIE
No thanks internet
No we should actuallythank Coodie he record all the footage plus the internet wasn’t as big back in 2003-4
Bro wtf@@ravinegi995
Coodie is my goat fr ❤️🐐
@@JoshuaOkpara-nu8mche was recording before that like 1998
Bro. You can still hear the affects of Ye's accident in this one. Nothing more pure then a young hungry Yeezy. Take away the way media portays him hes a genius.
Exactly. It was probably right after he got the wires removed from keeping his jaw shut. You can even see from how he raps with his jaw tight.
And I still hold that opinion 🤷🏻♂️
effects*
This is when Kanye proved everyone wrong. He wasn't just a producer. He was now a producer-RAPPER. Just look at the faces on Pharrell and that other dude. They're both in shock and in awe. Shows you that if you truly never give up on your dreams, they will eventually come true.
K Rhee hes about to do it again in clothing. rn were living in the the next last call story. and holy shit I just realized how old this is, still applies though
Only 5 years late 😂
Well said K to tha Rizar
@@Sushidotexe 5 years late? You know this album dropped in 2003 right lol almost 20 years old
willakabigwill1310 he meant to the original comment
Pharrells reaction after Kanyes verse will never be old, lmao.
jmaal2345 amazing, especially since he was so silent the rest of the video haha made it even better haha
Pharrell will never be old
U kno, his reaction sound like that thing pharrell does on his songs...
Josh'n You i agreee. Being in studios for 10 years straight, I guarantee Pharrell was sitting there saying to himself “16 bars are almost done, make sure to give a big reaction”
He’s a professional producer. He knows the drill :)
stryfetc1 fuck outta here
Pharrell transformed into a pterodactyl at the end
LOL
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Pharrelldactyl*
A pterodactyl in heat
"I can't complain what the accident did to my left eye cause look what the accident did to left eye" one of the truest verses ever
It’s so sad at the same time. I wish this accident never existed. RiP Lisa
Wow
What's the left eye at the last bit ?
@@Ash-fm6ym Lisa "left eye" Lopez was a female singer who had an accident that took her life but he His grateful that his own accident was not as deadly.
@@chinedukeshi7282 ah thanks
I wanted this to be a part of the doc so bad man, it sends me chills every time. You can just feel the passion and determination in Kanye's voice as he's rapping
Ikr smh
It is
This should be in ep 2
@@theoneaboveall1666 I was hoping it would be but it's not. I guess they wanted the focus to be "through the wire".
@@shannon_cf you've seen ep 2 already?
Fucking incredible
Ohhh wtf?? I didn't expect to see you here lmaooo
Eyyyy man Got style
yooooooo randyyyy
CONGRATS ON THE KID RANDY
Why you gotta swear bro
dude..so many memories..
FlemLo Raps is here?? Unexpected greatness commenting on unexpected greatness 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yo flemlo what’s good ?
My guy flem starting that rap career u in the right spot to learn some
Ayee
Bruh I never knew you liked ye. I’ve been watching your videos since the OG Rutgers and NCAA 14 dynastys
Yo, the Pharrel reaction after he made no movement during Kanye spitting was amazing
love how he let him do his thing while he was jsut absorbing the moment. I think he just realised theres a lot more to Kanye West than everyone thought. I also think the exaggerated gesture on camera was to help bolster Kanyes confidence and help reassure him he is as good as he thinks and let him know other people he respects are starting to see it
@@flyingfrogofdeath9616 gotta love P for that man 💜💜
I think that's a signature Pharell thing because I've noticed him doing that before where his facial expressions don't show if he's enjoying your music or not, he just lets you do your thing and the comment or react like this about it.
he was humbled into stillness in the moment,, but snapped out of it and remembered to give support at the end
Pharrell never frontin he is all about the art man and he understood he was witnessing true greatness and being the genius and wise man he also is he recognised that and absorbed the moment! Right after this in the doc he's says Kanye is already his favourite artist and this was the first time he heard him I loved this scene so much man
I've seen this clip easily 40 times. I listened to that song when the album dropped. I still get goose bumps about 8 seconds into Kanye's verse every time.
Most impactful opening bars to a verse ever
Shits powerful bro
Ye's strongest verse lyrically imo
I got chills right now. Ye's verse and Jay's last verse are beyond incredible. Man smh
Yeah powerful stuff. Jay z just waffles in his verse. No clue what that ninja talking about
I love the fact that Pharell just listened...he allowed Kanye to just express his art without interruption
this was the kanye west that affected my life.
Beat Fanatic yeah okay thats true
Kanye is and always will be good
@@rdiclst6908 not always
Beat Fanatic now he effects you with a maga hat
Guess not enough because you were so quick to abandon it.
They looking at Kanye like they just seen the truth!
After a Jay verse too
They did
Kanyes verse and delivery here is legendary.
They felt it
bruh forreall!!!!! dats wat im talkin bout!!!!
You know the song must be hot if the super producer Pharrell reacted like that. Good song.
+T Streeter super produc, i mean super rapper
+swagwagon229 true dat
+swagwagon229 calling pharrell a super rapper is like calling jay-z a super singer
0:17 kanye hits a high note he's the best singer and rapper in the world
and he was super nervous about having a sophomore slump with this album and he had also spent a ton of his own new money on it which he mentions early in the video
I love how Pharrell tuned in and listened, and waited til the end. Love it
Yes! So attentive and appreciating Ye's skills
He once gave us THIS. That's why it's not easy to hate on Kanye, no matter where his head's at today
He could stay as a legend i cant understand why he is doing all this bs
@@kutaycan7 wdym bs
running for president and talking crazy in twitter
@@kutaycan7 he a legend whether he runs for president or not bro.
@@kutaycan7 he’s already cemented as a legend, and he’s just too ambitious for his own good, wants to expand beyond music and fashion
Imagine being there, Legendary...
Wish Kanye and Pharrell would make an album together
there was supposed to be a trio with pharrell kanye and some other dude but idk what happened to it
+Yeezy Yeezy Yeezy that "other dude" was lupe fucking fiasco. the name was Child Rebel Soldier. smh
+piokj1 why you upset lol
+piokj1 why you upset LOL
***** Lupe a drama queen. Thats why I said Kanye and Pharrell only.
Kanye is a genuis
he is a genuis between genuises
@good kid m.a.a.d youtube good pfp
@good kid m.a.a.d youtube good username
The genuis of geniuses
This comment says "translate to English " underneath it. Cause of all languages, you chose to speak facts.
I wished they showed this part in the doc it was so fire !!!
Same but I guess they were emphasising through the wire at that lount
@@griffinnorth6448 yes bro…
Should have
I watched this in the documentary
Had to revisit this after the first episode of the documentary. Really hope this makes it in there. Such a legendary moment.
sadly didn't but we got more footage from this session! At least we have this video here anyway, one of my favourites from early ish kanye
Just come here from the last episode, the maddest goosebumps 🥶😰🔥 Ye to the world
Kayne West has been thru so much I respect him despite of what people have to say bout him
Same here.
"some of my ID still says Kayne"
“Kayne”
This was my favorite song on da album n the whole album was fire.
it's either this or family business
last call is fire too
to be honest i can list like 10 songs that are completely amazing
the album is lit but 4 me family business and last call are pure platinum
This and spaceships
Hate on him all you want, he will be remembered as the greatest
*one of the greatests.... not disagreeing with you at all tho
Kanye Just like President Trump GOAT
Like Childish Gambino says: "Rap stepfather, you may hate me byt you will respect me". Same goes for Kanye. You might hate him, but you gotta respect his music.
@@tdubz87 Stfu
one of the greatest
Ill be 40 this year, and this is quote possibly one of the best songs I've heard in my life.
Same on everything bro. 40 this and still get chills to this day from this song. Very spiritual
Which quote?
I meant "quite" possibly. But since we're talking quotes, fav from this song is "I can't complain what the accident did to my left eye, cause look what a accident did to Left Eye (TLC singer). First Aaliyah now Romeo Must Die (Aaliyah in movie Romeo Must Die and guy from Steve Harvey show, Romeo, died"
Oh and "Hovs a living legend and I'll tell you why. Everybody wanna be Hov and Hov still alive.
Shoutout to coodie for recording all this history. Now we know the name of the legendary man behind the camera who shot moments like this
...And they tried to tell him he couldn't rap.
Trust...
AND his jaw was still fucked during this, look at the way it's moving
I hear consequence in this verse
@@fishoutofwaterseries1424 probably but those lines about “making it to the ballots to chose leadership” and “I know you sent tears from heaven when you seen my car get balled up” and the “look what an accident did to left eye” are definitely Ye
@@sambailor what’s up with his jaw
Pharrell's reaction is priceless lol
Genius.... All Kanye's work is classics.
once kanye finished his verse, pharrell already knew this was gonna be a massive hit.
Literally goosebumps every time
1 year later and i still get goosebumps every time
This clip made me reevaluate everything i tought about kanye and listend to all of his album. Much respect i was wrong, he's not crazy he's a crazy genius
Me too
Jeen-yuhs*
I think most of us went through this, and I'm so happy that I did.
The "Jeen-Yuhs" docu gave me MAD respect for Ye.
Especially being 20 years worth of footage filmed by his friend.
It's funny cause 4 years later and Ye still in the news getting heat over comments this time though they really be trying hard to cancel him
This as fucking inspiring as it gets.
Brings tears to my eyes.
Sameee
Ari Lee I tear up every single time i hear this.
This was the first person to show Kanye genuine love on the documentary outside of mos def. everybody else was playing my guy out hea.
Honestly man, Kanye been the one of the most relevant man in the industry for more almost 20years now..and people still be starving for his new album I can't really think of any other artists who'a been doing it like this
my favorite kanye song. only problem with it is jay's verse is just a generic feature where he's just rapping about how great he is and came up or whatever, and kanye's is really deep and heartfelt and goes better with the beat
Funny I felt the same way it came out like for once Hov wasn't even really needed on this track. Kanye was the one that really shined here.
It's not that Jay's verses were wack, they could've worked on another song. They just sounded so phoned in and out of place, you could tell they weren't in the same studio when it was recorded.
mistahmst Jay's first verse was off the Hovi Baby Remix, so it literally did work on another song.
Joe Coleman Yeah, but it didn't work on this song.
i feel jayz's verse was sayin that he'll never let the people down with his music bein as good as he is, everything you hear from em will be hot if this makes sense...and kanyes was more deep its just two vibes combined
I hate that we will never see Kanye in an OG Flash Gordon shirt ever again.
I know right
So true !
You wrong tho. The Flash is not Flash Gordon
That's The Falsh, the DC character. Not the same thing as Flash Gordon. But yea.
Its Barry allen flash
Its sad this album came out almost 15 years ago and how he talks about racism and how its still a problem now shows nothing has changed
it came out 12 years ago not 15
thats why i said almost lmao was too lazy to do the math
And now he just said to accept it basically
@@ianperry4587 Damn nigga you want a scholarship with those math skills?
still relevant now. crazy
It’s weird. I JUST discovered this song today because Spotify randomly shuffled it into my playlist. I saw the documentary too but I guess I missed it. Song is perfect. The beat, flow, girl singing, Ye and Jay’s style. The poet at the end. Powerful song
GOAT end of discussion
this is the kanye west we love
So true, I miss this Kanye
Re listen to last call off college dropout you sound ridiculous thinking he changed
hey lloyd :D
The true Kanye, where he spit it right from the heart man. sigh...
***** what nigga? Bitch!
Jay's verse was tight I guess. But Kanye and J. Ivy's parts give me chills damn near every time I hear this record. I still got love Kanye and always will, but he was on another level durin' this time period. Every song of his he was teachin' you something. Every song of his had meanin'. Every song of his was full of quotables. Even if you don't like dude anymore, or shit, even if you never liked him, ion see how you couldn't appreciate the run he went on...
bruh I agree. ye and ivy went to the soul
True. You have more to say and more hunger when you haven't made it famous yet. Not to say he's got worse just less people can connect to his music as before once he's switched up his style and become more famous
Jay Z wasn't even rapping in the proper context of the subject matter
Kanye verse was kinda wack. He wasn’t really refine yet..jay was a pro outclassed ye’.
Yo bruh.. I totally agree
got chills...
Kanye is one of the greatest musicians of all time, he’s such an inspiration, I’m so happy that the documentary came out on him. The hustle and hard hard work is extremely admirable
There will never be another artist like him he truly is the greatest of all time in my opinion
I couldn’t agree more.
In every genre?
@@Siamese_cat_ you think he is the greatest in every genre or just hip hop
@@kingjames0189 I couldn’t say he’s the best in every genre because he isn’t. I don’t really know what I’d class him as, I just love his music so much.
It’s Michael jackson and him for me period
Pharrell's reaction to this song gave me goose bumps!! Ye we need another College Drop out!
One of the best hip-hop beats ever.
Gotdammit Kanye was spittn raw 🔥🔥🔥 right there..
Anthony Scott
That wasn't raw ? He said he didn't record it yet that doesn't mean raw
Ushio Okazaki Raw means like sick, nice, off the top
00:18 I do the same thing whenever the song comes on lol
This is my fav Kanye song of all time. I'm not a religious or spiritual person but when this song comes on it's hard NOT to feel something. There's that saying "jack of all trades or a master at one", Kanye is truly a master of all trades regarding music. Mix that with confidence, a good education, political interest, and a chip on your shoulder and you have greatness. Once in a century artist.
Best song on the Drop Out and one hell of a classic
Besides "Two Words" and "New Workout Plan" and "Last Call" its definitely my favorite
+Goldie Bingley last call is amazing
+Armen Boric through the wire is hype but still my #1 off of dropout prob
easily. and that album is a top to bottom classic but something about this songs i dunno...
Jamil1013 I really like two words it’s probably my second favorite if not the best
This Kanye is why people still hold this man in such high regard, even today. This Kanye is the one that touched and affected people. This is the Kanye we all want to see again.
He been through so much gang, he inna dark place and its just a matter of time until he’s out💯 you’ll know when he is
shut up let people evolve
Nah fuck that, people change and go through shit. Yall really want old clueless kanye back for yall best interests not his. You people sound so selfish when yall say shit like this
if ye was still the same and made the same music he wouldn't be regarded as much as a legend that he is. We wouldn't of gotten MBDTF, 808s, Yeezus, or TLOP
@@gimsix thank you
His production skills are phenomenal. The man is a musical genius
Idc what happens. He’ll always be our college dropout with a bust jaw.
I miss this dude bro
@@redward18 Bro please, he is still himself, only thing that happened was he removed God from his life for a sec, but this Ye in the video is back.
@@auguste573 agree. Dude is a man now.
This verse man I learned this verse without ever looking at a lyric of .. I just played this song like 1000 times
i love the line at 2:03 "been baptized bout 3 or 4 times" followed by the dope flow for the first half of the next line, the switchup in the rhyme scheme to '-tized' and 'times' rather than a rhyme for 'scrub' heightens your attention then he hits you with the best display of technical (if you want to call flow that) ability in the whole verse, I wonder if he did that intentionally or if it's just coincidence, same effect either way.
Jonas Damion AP Eng
I’m pretty sure he just did it to fit all of his lines within the beat
This song always makes me so emotional! Especially when J. Ivy swoops in. I'm in tears!
Ye will go down as one of the greatest rappers of all time!!! #Facts
I got chills for real watching this
This shit still hits me in a special way to this DAY!!!
Kanye's Falsetto tho.
but he always kept true to himself
@@mstyle2006 this killed me lmao he aint say false boi
@@MA-kw5ft bro I never would’ve understood what he meant lmaoo 💀💀 Stan detected
10 times better than your comment
you know the song gon be fire when rappers look homeless ..
+OGG Prince Exactly, that's why "Artist's" take from other underground artist for verses. Drake, Kanye, Beyoncé....etc Good music comes from the people in the struggle.
True.
Lol
he basically preached to the broke on that whole album, one of the skits had a frat called "broke fi broke"
Actually that was on Late Registration. Most of the skits on drop out were about school aside from the intro and the one before spaceship
No words ... Kanye can be as cocky as he wants - give that man a cookie!
Watching this takes me back to good times man
So sad this part wasn’t in the documentary. I can’t even imagine how much raw footage Coodie actually has smh.
Apparently the Netflix documentary was originally 9 hours
@@WhtMike2006 why on earth would they cut it 😭😭😭
@@tooglianprimus15 I don't know man. I think Netflix made the call to drop it from 9 hours to 4 or 5 hours.
This was part of the documentary, re-watch the episodes
@@rogersahagun its not you are a wrong
This shows why despite what you think of his current album, Kanye will still go down as one of the greats. He did with his first three albums what most rappers and hip hop artists will never be able to do, and that is create classic after classic.
I think his latter 3 albums can also be considered classics. 808s had some big hits and had a big influence on a lot of artists who came after it, like Drake and Frank Ocean. MBDTF was amazing and is definitely a modern classic. Yeezus is also amazing, although very different from the rest of his work.
nothing but pure talent ...you can't knock what god gives you!
the system in that studio knocks
I thought it was my speakers lmao
The tempo and way he paces it, builds it up and then brings it back down
Always gotta comeback to this legendary video once a while
Pharrell's reaction at the end is one of the reason's i love this thing called HIPHOP. It definitely shows how great Yeezy was going to be just by being acknowledged by pharrell who is a sick producer who Jay loves collaborating with as well
Love P's reaction in the end. Love this song. Love the album. Get up I get down...
Take Me back to the 2000s 😭😭 alotta memories 🔥
This is the Kanye we all love!!!!
Nah we still love Ye
Still get the chills watching this shit man!!
Kanye makes me cry like a baby he inspires me so much, I absolutely love him! God bless this genius man
Kanye's most "conscious hip hop" songs

3.Heard 'em say
4.Diamonds Sierra Leone/remix
5.All Falls Down

Ekow Quansah I know it's past visiting hours

Touch the sky?
Power
back when Kanye changed the game , on some soulful shit ... especially after the late registration ... he was a genuis then ! we still got love for this kanye of today but how do we miss the old one ?
I can't complain about what an accident did to my left eye , coz look what an accident did to Left Eye? first Aaliyah , now Romeo must die . I know I got angels watching me from the other side !
Jay Houss I just bumped the album the other day beginning to end .... extremely classic & game changing .... besides the production, his content was so spiritual ... it's so weird he gets all the illuminati devil backlash .... because he was so full of church on that album ... the choirs .... the organs .... Jamie Foxx added some magic to it too .... fans forget so easily 😔
I was hoping this footage would have made the documentary, but man.... glad we have footage from this and Pharrell's reaction to "Through The Wire"
This is one of my favorite Kanye songs of all time. Kanye is a genius
This verse gives me chills, even on the millionth listen. People who say Kanye is a bad rapper are just plain wrong. He's a good rapper, and perhaps the best hip hop producer (contemporary; 2000s-on) on the planet.
...and pretty much everything he's talking about is still an issue today. He's been ahead of the majority of the population socially for over a decade.
He's a futurist
by far his greatest verse,
the depth of his verse is incredible. This is the personal Kanye I want, because it stays with me the longest. He talked about racism and his life experiences, you can just feel the meaning of his words here man ♥️
His hunger and how humble he is, is crazy! I don't see the same kind of hunger from him anymore. Watching this makes me smile seeing someone who can't believe they made it, someone who is just happy to be heard. Makes me feel proud of him, what happened, I dont want to judge though because i get it people change.
Kanye still wants to be heard today but it's completely different today, almost pointless at times. Man..makes me scared to see anyone go this route, if he was like this all through..man who knows. That hunger makes me think of 2pac and Nas. I dont know man. I wonder if Kanye ever looks back at these clips or listens to his old tracks and wonder himself.
no one has had the hunger of young Ye man, so so talented and raw
So bumbed that they didn't put this along side the others on the netflix doc.
at 4:40 in never let me down it sounds like pharrells woooo
oh my god I just listened to it
I think that is it!!!
lmao thats on purpose
Wow very good catch there. Never would have connected it. Awesome.
Who else can't wait for the Netflix documentary in 2021 unreleased studio moments, I am begging there is a Runaway studio session.
One of the best verses of all time
Whenever Ye does something silly.. I come back here and fall back in love with that crazy fk
Instantly bought the Album back then when it came out here in germany... its one album that i will never ever forget... kanye is just a genius of a person ...
Say what you want but this dude is a genius
this is beyond epic - almost brought a tear to my eye. i know people get pissed when other people say "kanye isn't the same." and while i agree he is the same person - he ain't putting out this music, and probably never will again. that's a sad realization. this shit is classic.
as a big kanye fan, its sad...all the greats fall off at some point. he's too into the fashion thing & kim to care about putting out quality music with substance anymore. Yeezus was his worst album to date and i expect his music will worsen in the coming years
TheCudiii yeezus is a amazing album take the time listen
He still puts his heart and soul into his music. In fact, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is probably his best album. It's just different.
The thing about kanye is that you cant put him in a box. Hes always trying new things with his music.
live4days i took the time to listen trust me im a huge fan i tried to like it but aside from a few tracks, Yeezus was lyrically subpar and was kanye's worst album to date. I've been following kanye's career from the beginning and i miss the lyricism and heart he put into his music.
This should’ve been in Jeen-Yuhs too!!! Pharrell was the realest person to Kanye at this time in his life!!
This should serve as a remind that Kanye West is one of the greatest artist of our time, period!!!!!
Ye is just built different man. Respect.. 💯🤝🏽🫡
