This was literally my first time hearing Kamasi Washington
AmateurMastermind listen Truth it's just beautiful
msergio0293 oh yeah I just bought the album. I woke up at 3 am and youtube suggested this to me. I am a music aficionado, I have never bought an album like that before lol
AmateurMastermind it's so cool that you have it! Wish I could get some vinyls too, but maybe I will try to get BBNG material first ;)
AmateurMastermind go to listen the epic yoooo
InBrooken The Epic? is that an album?
I feel so much cooler after listening to this.
Michael Pryor I think I am 😂
I'm soo cool too, I wasn't before
after this, my life makes sense
kamasi creates magic with sound
I feel cool because I can play it
We are so proud of our Hamilton High School Alumni. Keep making great music.
I hope Steve is doing good. Haven't heard from him in a long time. Nor his family. Makes me worry.
lmao reasons why I never want to be famous
Man hope that dude Steve is doing well too
@@cronicjointpain1 Who is steve and what happened to him?
This song was marinated in aged cognac, sautéed and basted in French butter, and plated with fresh shaved black truffles....
Damn that's accurate.
my mans been watchin too much fuck thats delicious
Lol
As a french, seeing sautéed made me realy inconfortable.
Yea im makin breakfast to it good breakfast to boy
If anyone is interested in hearing something similar, Sun Ra released an album called Lanquidity in 1978 that has some similarities. Two tracks in specific that carry the same vibe are "Where Pathways Meet" and "That's How I Feel"
loved that album. goes even slower than this I think
DUDE! spot on! killer tunes
You're awesome for this lol
Damn total reverse copy of that's how I feel....thank you
Dope album
This feels like thunder cats cousin,
lightning dog
Underrated
Cats and dogs are NOT cousins
Stronk ohhh no it’s the fun police
xXWinningTheFightXx police are NOT fun
Stronk oh no it’s the buzzkill
Is that better?
The series “Sugar” with Colin Farrell led me to this. Awesome !
Me too.
Dude, your music is frequently listened to in our house and we randomly hum this song after epic things happen. Like exquisite food or perfectly rolled blunts. Thank you.
facts istg I just rolled a piece of a piece of a backwood
Had to spin back for some of that Pei Mei energy.
🤣🤣🤣👌
Send me the addy I gotta move in with yall
That's a lit house to live
Dream Band
Kamasi Washington- Sax
Robert Glasper- Keys
Thundercat- Bass
Kareem Riggans- Drums
Madlib- MPC
Wow! I had no ideal this comment would become a community of people making dream bands lol. Awesome!
switch Kareem for Earl Davis and you have one funky squad.
Have you not heard Cameron Graves's work in the keys with Kamasi?? that guy's a legend
since its supposed to be a dream band, why not have dilla on the mpc?
I would put Chris Dave on drums and Roy Hargrove (RIP) on trumpet
@@pepegalvan_ Hargrove died?!!
Saw him live with Herbie Hancock, Jesus Christ the musicianship in one room was unbelievable
A saw him live recently too
Was it in Berkeley?
@@user-nd7ej7nt5c No, Denver
@@user-nd7ej7nt5c I saw them there, great show!
I don't know if it was the mixing, but it sounded a lot rougher without all the effects he uses in his masters. Still, great show regardless.
Life pro tip: Put this on at the gym. Feels like you’re preparing for a epic battle. Also hypnotizes you so you don’t realize you’ve done 43 reps non stop to the rhythm
Unless you're trying to train for muscular endurance, you aren't using enough weight if you can get 43 reps my friend.
@@user-vk2cd9qw7i Soooo the concept of extreme exaggeration for the sake of a joke is completely foreign to you? When somebody says they gained a million pounds during the holiday break, do you say to them “well actually, there’s no way any human could gain that much weight without dying in the process”. Enjoy the music and don’t think too hard my guy
@@Imactuallynighthawk No need to get rude my man just trying to be helpful. Some people actually do 43 reps of an exercise, it's not that extreme of an amount, especially if you're training for endurance.
@@user-vk2cd9qw7i Being a condescending asshole isn't how you help someone.
@@user-vk2cd9qw7i you arent being helpful when you correct jokes. You're being pedantic.
This whole thing was just so he could show off how good he is at street fighter 2
Not good enough to beat Combofiend ☠☠
“Round 1!” “Fight!”
HAHA, that would be amazing.
5:21 this man really snuck the Daigo Umehara parry into a music video, respect.✊🏾
not only that he got the number 37 on that ticket O_O
@@GtrMmorpg what means the number 37 in this case?
@@diegopineda733 that footage thats shown at 5:21 where a Ken is parrying chun li's attack is a famous and legendary moment for competitive street fighter and fighting games in general, which happened at a very important tournament called Evo, its usually called Evo Moment 37, or the daigo parry
Let's go Kamasiii
Hes also got a couple fgc dudes in the video, gootecks was one of the two guys walking in with him near the end
Kamasi and MF Doom should make an album
Andrew Osei the universe ain't ready for that as yet
DAMN RIGHT!
Callum Moodley Nah... We be hungry for it
Throw Bas right in that mix as well
That would be disgusting
This song is always like a beautiful sunset. You can't just catch it at its peak and call it a day. It's how it progresses and develops from start to finish that shows all its true beauty.
I love how the drummer just subtlety starts going crazy toward the end. And he hits you with those doubled bass notes. 👌
Just been on an incredibly fruitful music spree on TH-cam. Opened a bunch of tabs from the recommended lists and after about two hours of listening to great music, I found this song in the last tab... the perfect finale. Feels like I should've paid for this experience.
Yeah.... Me too.... I think Stage shows makes these characters where one has to really see those characters when they are played by their show name.....
May I know what you found? Was it all instrumental or did some have lyrics?
This will age beautifully
Oh NO PEEPOSAD
@@drakula877 gootecks PogChamp
@@zachle591 not so Pog after comments he made on the capitol riots :/
Like the finest of wines
@@sxmdt yeah... What abt finest of whisky?..... That also ages well....
That shot of him dipping his feet in the pool is absolutely gorgeous and badass. He’s serene and decisive.
Definitely going to blow that up and put it in my house
He had me the nodd, silence and at the part when he rang the bell with his cane!
This song plays when you beat someone but with a heavy price.
Like waiting in a restaurant for TWO HOURS
👀
"This song makes you feel like you´re playing street figther."
10/10 - IGN
I've never liked this meme.. but god is it wonderful. 10/10 would read again
This is the Dark Souls of music videos
Omfg! Hahaahhaa
Without the fast pickup of the beats it sounds like a late 80s early 90s urban movie score ala "Hoop Dreams" or something like. Monotone jazz. 70 s as well.
Gorgeous. Nothing but respect from the whole Mello squad.
Anyone Swedish is probably going to have the same "wait, what?" reaction as I did. Mello is Swedish for The Eurovision Song Contest. :)
I thought mellophone. Did a marching band cover this???
@@jomarluke might be.... Not sure.... But can be....
Shoutout if “Sugar” brought you here 💯
Who's sugar
@@earthsuperstar1 an alien
@@LilyWhite-vo1bh bro that part had me crazy😂
Facts
This was THE perfect song for the intro for Sugar
John Sugar sends his regards.
I keep watching this and I don't know why... It's very relaxing like he knows something about the universe that I've yet to discover. I must learn more about Kamasi Washington.
@Jerry Mathurin Go for The Epic, I feel like it's even better most of the time!
do more drugs !
@@cocorosh7295 u do u man
@@baraghy3627
hallucinogens are not drugs. they are tools. drugs are bad.
@@holdmybeer they are drugs after all we cant deny that man
Yo shout out to my lyft driver who put me on.its crazy because I had my head phones on low jamming to some big krit..but then I hear the saxophone start had to put the goat on pause and take this masterpiece in.wow
Imagine K.R.I.T dropping knowledge on this track🤧
You got great taste my friend #multialumni
God I wish I lived in a country where the average person listened to great music like this
The complexity of notes, genres, instruments and soul in this song will be remembered for generations. This is a masterpiece..Nat King Cole...Miles Davis...Dizzy Gillespie type masterpiece!
Woah it's not that complex lmao you're just hearing big chords over some jazz riffs
Look into open voicing chords with extra notes added (open voicing = the notes are spread across octaves)
This makes your music sound b i g and epic
Oh and the chord progression you use can also add to the "grandness" sound
Anybody here from sugar?
Yes, finally found ❤
I started to see, and I have stock from Greece
🙋🏾♂️
I heard it before Sugar I thought. It was instantly familiar. Gyrating hips and singing right along in key. ❤
👋🏽
Sounds like the psychedelic scores to 70s Italian films, so dope. This needs to be in a Tarantino flick, man.
Yea u nailed it
Great Point! As well as some scores in Black films in the same era.
Same flavor
Great comment! Are you a giallo film fan? Greetings from Greece!
It takes a lot of talent to make a trip to the DMV into a musical masterpiece
Yeah.... For this kind of songs.... I agree with u....
Never in my life have i ever had my jaw drop for a song before this one. Oh my god, this was incredible
Yeah it stays with you! Very cerebral and knocks you when you least expect it....
I’ve been playing this on my radio show for 4 years now.
So happy it’s going to explode thru Sugar!!
I never thought I needed to see Kamasi Washington, Gootecks and Combofiend in one video but I'm glad I have that now. Amazing as always.
And Battlecat lol
Bro what I dig in the most is that the roles in this MV are actually important figures in the Street Fighter Community, Gootecks was/is the most known entertainer in the SF Scene and Combofiend as well is a renowned player in the Fighting Game Community. In general, they're both solid players, however Combofiend is still more skilled , which is well depicted in the video, great work!
Gootecks' inclusion didn't age very well...
The way he’s dressed makes me want to respect him
I'll tell you this crazy story.
It's 10:14 here in Berlin, I woke up all covered in sweat after a terrible night of sleep. My flatmate got covid on Sunday, and probably so do I now.
Well, one of the songs playing on repeat inside my head while sleeping was this masterpiece, the funny part is that I only listened to this thing once, around 1 month ago.
I woke up saying "Street Fighter Mas" and had to check if I was right. And I was.
How did you make out?
I hope our friend made it out ○♡
@@vuyissecretgarden Thank you! We are both fine. I just remember him losing his smell for almost 3 months.
We don't live together anymore, but we are best friends now 😁❤
@@nivek2177 - Healed up 😊
This was in my recommended. Never heard of Kamasi before. I feel like I got some homework to do.
The Epic may be 3 hours long. But if you sit and listen to it all the way in one sitting you will be greatly rewarded.
A contemporary legend.
Katsinum yeah dawg!!
Same
Me 3
Play this when I die
Noah Coronado yes indeed something to play while spreading ashes to an endless sea on a breezy sunny day. Ahhhhhh
I commented this verbatim. Then scrolled through the comments and saw this. 😂 epic
xfa please
I swear I said the same thing to myself before I saw this comment.
@@spookyflite9651 that's crazy I did the same thing.
Sugar brought me here. Not being cultured, or eclectic music tastes, or anything admirable at all. Just my ability to sit still and watch TV.
Thank You John Sugar for this!
Jazz and Fighting Games. My two favourite things
10/10 in many levels
And in New Game Plus.
Accept for the secret car one
Except the lyrics
"levels" hehe
isn't exactly fitting on this type of game
Song made it to the intro of Sugar. Perfect intro!
I thought I was gonna forget the name of this video broo 💀 one of the best music videos I've ever seen
Can Anderson Paak collab please?!
Majestic Casual stop you shitty hype toilet music channel and listen carefully what is art
R G wow come down dude
He's right though.
That would be dope, I could hear his voice on this.
R G You're entitled to your own subjective opinion, but watch his tiny desk show. Paak changed the rap game for the better. Now everyone and their mother is incorporating live bands in their shows - The only difference is Paak is actually playing an instrument (and to a fairly high level) while he's singing/rapping.
Nothing like music that don’t need words to tell a story
A story about an epic vengeance, but the hero has a fucking nuke
@@gasa1165 yeah... That's right.... It should be there to do justice for that title.....
This was incredible. I've come back like a dozen times at this point and it hit my recommendations yesterday.
That trumpet solo is so killer!!!
I'm addicted to this song especially the drum beat towards the end.
God, imagine a fighting game with a kamasi washignton sound track
sauce he had a Street Fighter tournament yesterday, it was lit
I would never be able to play, I'd be too busy vibing hard
Imagine a fighting game with Kamasi as a playable character ;)
Talking Records The closest we'll ever get is probably the character "Big Band" from Skullgirls, he's like robocop made out of brass instruments
Xavier Henry big band is my element
I listened to this masterpiece 15× in a row, no joke.
Some real talent at work here. Seeing Kamasi live is one of the first things I want to do once we can travel again. Thanks for the amazing music brother.
My husband took me to see him in Washington, D.C. You must see him live 🙌🏾
*The kind of song to butter your croissant to......*
Croissant*
@@marvingarcia2402 ........
What does that even mean?
One does not put butter on a croissant
But I get what you mean
Never heard of Kamasi Washington. Heard this song on the radio and it has instantly jumped up to my favorite song of all time. It's all I want in a song.
Based off of @Dominique Brown’s comment
Dream Band
Kamasi Washington: Sax
Louis Cole: Synths and/or backup vocals
Thundercat: Bass and vocals
Mad lib: mixing
Flying lotus: anything
Anderson .Paak : main vocals
That’s my list!
Remember, it's not the funk you take; it's the funk you give. And this song is giving us the purest funk we all need...
Somehow manages to make such a simple music video into something magical. The music definitely had something to do with it. And so did Kamasi's smooth as fuck style.
0:01 in case you're in the comment section when the song ends
Lol fuck yes my guy. Thanks 😂
Htoo Htet Aung 🧡
Visionary my dude. arigatou
not every hero wears a cape...
that was clutch my boy
I have watched this numerous times and on my 38th watch, I just noticed that the video is in 4:3 format like the retro Street Fighter games. May this video age like fine wine.
Part of me like "what did I just watch?" the other part like "Yeah, yeah I feel that."
Every second of this is perfect. Shit makes me feel immortal.
Just heard the avalanches for the first time and fell in love totally, now Kamasi and also i heard Charles Bradley, Black Pumas and Michael Kiwanuka a few weeks ago. Someone up there still loves me....
Philip Bruchman avalanches and Kiwa are both so dope. Great taste
Bro thanks for this.. I loved all these artists but had never heard of Charles Bradley I just spend the last 45 minutes listening to him. Went through so many emotions after hearing he passed after reading comments. Appreciate the recommendations...
Check out thee sinseers. Johnny quinones (I think that's the spelling) is amazing.
Michael Kiwanuka is something else too.💣
Budos band
Khruangbin
King Krule

Just to name a few
Never shake hands with a Blanka player.
I don't blame you. Blanka Players can be annoying.

kamasi is mad random
That sound he gets from the vocals - it's so unique and so effective . . .
The Excellent Adventures of Gootecks and Kamasi Washington
Make it happen
The voices singing the ooohhs and aahhs, remind me so strongly of something.. Like a Wong Kar Wei film or a death sequence in an anime
C'e un cantautore italiano chiamato Ennio Corleone non sono sicure come si scriba ma questo uomo ha composto canzone simile, pensa per esempio in the good the bad and the ugly canzone
Actually, I feel like they're from Xenoblade Chronicles.
they remind me of the singer's in the Attack on Titan soundtracks
I was thinking from Ace Combat Soundtrack maybe
It strongly reminds me Attack on titan dramatic music
I was nodding my head to the dopeness of this track well after it was finished. Kudos, brother

i was lookin for this comment
and yet no link
th-cam.com/video/xSGW7CwD5GM/w-d-xo.html
First time I've ever seen that. Incredible!
Thats how you know Kamasi is a true street fighter player.
Excellence recognizes Excellence
His brother was my photography teacher in high school
They'll make a huge mistake if they doesnt add my man Kamasi as a new character in the Street Fighter game
Yeah.... That's right.... I think That new character makes more humor to that song.... That's fantastic and beautiful....
@@HONORTONUMERIC123 why...... Do you type.. Like.. This?..
@@Atlas.Brooklyn why does it matter kid?
Good news: you can make him in the custom character story mode!
@@ZigealFaustor play as JP
I listen to this over and over again... why is that??
I swear Kamasi Washington is the most badass man to ever walk the face of the earth
Ghengis Khan would disagree
That comment right there, yeah, that one, is correct.
This song and the structure of it all makes me smile as a musician
I am glad you are coming to perform to my country Greece.
We are excited to see you!
I wish I could like this a 1,000 more times.
it's gonna be my favorite album from him, i feel it.
This is so Dramatic yet so Innocent.
Still banging this on my boat in 2023
I cannot get enough of this guy
I read Kamasi, I click Kamasi.
Another Masterpiece!
김지은 it goes.
The Universe goes. :)
Mucho tema tan bacano mil felicitaciones
Kamasi means mucus in Swahili
Why are you only recommending this to me now TH-cam!
And his best song, Truth, isn't here anymore
Because you are only now ready
Why would YT keep this MASTERPIECE away from me for so long!
We are privileged to experience such delicacy
I think this is one of the best music and the best music clip I have seen in my whole life, no joke.
From a French dude point of view:
1 - You can still find phone booths in the US
2 - They got the same waiting tickets in the US
3 - They always have some great music going on in the US
4 - I will go back to the US
l
We don't have phone booths and those same waiting tickets anymore. It's part of a retro thing for the video I suspect.
This comment did not age well.
This is ultimate chill.
Mixed with Heritage and love.
Sat a test, couldn't answer a think...and this kept playing in my head
I love the places that music is going. And I'm glad that video games and anime is such a big part of it.
I don't know what I'm watching, but it's three levels of cool above me.
keep coming back to this one
This is arguably one of my favorite music videos of all time.
usually I want words to a song but nah this is perfect alone. Sound like something that should be on Luke cage
Too bad they canceled season three....
That's racist
Bruuuuuuuhhh, definitely should have been on Luke Cage.
I feel like a super villain who is about to be righteously destroyed by the man whose family I killed, and he's going to do it slow-walking with a golden bazooka.
edit:
and its Kamasi Washington
The best comment I have read so far
Smooth as fuck
nah. he comin to whoop on some of that Ken ass
I don't know why I like this comment so much, but damn, I surely do
Oh yes, like tarantino movies. This song could be in one of them
Couldn't stop listening 🎧 Thanks John Sugar 😅
Watch out for ear diabetes!
So does anyone see a deeper meaning in the video here? Because I can't help but feel like this is a weigh station on the way to the afterlife, like a type of purgatory, and Kamasi's still there because he's too driven to be the master of his realm... Which is why we need to fight the hardest fight for our souls' completion while we live. I think it's beautiful.
My two year old cries when this song ends...
If I had a baby I wan him like that
Trombone part starting at 2:40 is a rendition of the first verse from "Nothing but a G thang"...so genius!
I had to scroll down so far to see if anybody else caught that
@@IronTiger Kindred spirits. Good ear, sir.
This is by far one of the greatest musical works of our time, the depths I could go on and on about the art work with the visual and musical combination. Some Person one day with write there College thesis on this piece of music and I can’t wait to read it.
Loc this is crazy Cuh on me 💯🔥
One of the best songs to just play along with drums. I've probably played along with this song for hundreds of hours when I just want to jam.
This belongs in a Tarantino movie
100% accurate
Not enough blood and foot fetish shots for that I'm afraid
@@jedyzichterman358 uh... Just the music bro
I swear it already is
I thought this was directed by him before reading this comment
