One of the smoothest beats ever. Classic Ye production
also "They Say" was super smooth, from the same album
yo ko oh no
This is classic Ye production? To me it sounds more like Premier's style but Ye did it justice
@@TraverseRaps Premier was more boom bap, kanye was known for this style of drums. Along with a “sweet” sounding piano in his beats.
@@TraverseRaps it is nothing like premier's style
“Two of Chicago’s finest MCs!”
"Give it up for Common, and KanYe West!"
Neither one can fade Twista!!! 💪🏾
Nubian Starr Prod. Relax lol
@@curvykingdom8077 or Lupe Fiasco either. Not even a fan and I admit that
Love them both, but they light work next to Lupe Fiasco
The bass line is so underrated in this plus the vintage Ye chops ..
The bass line is the best part to me. Reminds me of Guess Who’s Back
facts my fav part of the song
@RxddioActi❤vTV 2 2:24 ,x ❤
That bassline is really special. It’s mixed quietly but it carries such an evocative, 3 bar melody. It’s strong while humble…. tasteful production.
Piano beats are ALWAYS fire in hip hop songs. I've never heard a bad one.
Every ice cream truck shud play this beat
RJAY They Should
Only in a perfect world.
Naw. When I hear this beat I picture dudes grinding and hustling to feed their fam!
RJAY especially since the ice-cream truck melody we're used to hearing is rumored to have racist origins
@Lebogang I never knew that
One of my favorite all-time beats, because it has such a feel good mood to it
This is NICE !!! First time hearing this was on the Dave Chappelle show...
same!!!
common and kanye actin like they cookin lol
thats crazy you remember that episode
When I hear this, it feels like the world is what it should be
That's some poetic shit right there..
So True 🌄🌬️🏄👑💡👍
wow perfect example ✊🏽
This could drop April 27, 2019 and still be 🔥🔥🔥
I can't see anyone disliking this instrumental. I'm surprised 53 people have.
It may be a hatred of Kanye West, possibly.
Angelo R I don't like Kanye but I do like this beat. Regardless of the person who made it, the beat is still dope.
because kanye made it prolly smh haters
You push a man far enough over the edge he starts to push back.

Just Be sure to blow them one last kiss.
Its funny how life can pass you up so fast.
One rule.
Don't live in the past
Been rocking with this way before slavery was a choice...
Can’t forget what Ye been blessing us with✊🏾💯
10 years later and this song is still dope!
That was literally the best thing anyone has ever commented on this video... thank you.
Ima let you finish,Ima let you finish but Kanye had one of the best instrumentals of ALL TIME!
i don't even write to this, just the beat inspires me to no end.
Jay z can SO put his “Dope boys go Crazy” verse on here
one of my favorite thing instrumentals ever. Also a dope song !
hidden gem. piano is sick in this song
Why is it everytime I see my fav. instrumental some fools only trying to rap, Man who sings this and lets just leave it at that.
💖🎶 love that Otis Redding - Nothing Can Change This Love sample 👌
Stop sample snitching
@@SDSOverfiend it's sample educating
@@SDSOverfiend 20 years after the songs comes out 😂
Ahh... the sweet sound of inspiration 😎
This is beautiful; makes me want to write. I could script a biography of poetry. Dope !!!
REMINDS ME OF DRIVING AROUND BLASTING THIS SONG IN WEST OAKLAND
This music holds great honor, makes connection to the senses, muuuah
RAW instrumental. my favorite Common song--i wish the original version was on BE not just chappelle's version, tho i enjoyed how hype that was too!
Now this is real music the music today ain`t nothing compared to this.
L

Memories of last decade...
why cant kanye west make soul beats like this nowadays ? stuff like this is what inspired me 2 become a producer
i usually dont even read freestyles like this but yours is pretty raw (before the money part)
Thank you .
i knew this song was dope every since it dropped i knew it took a while but finally a million views
My food is knowledge
My plate is college
Life aint a game and that what we should acknowledge
They try to disgrace us
Improperly place us
Deep inside they are truly scared to face us
Only clear your mind
Then all will you find
Answer are so scarce, but all will come in time
I rap to motivate
Not to encourage hate
We just wait for the future and hope what occurs is great
Good Life. It's what we lust
Having money's a must
We want a better future, but that all is up to us
bars
Good shit. Keep it up.
Top 🔝 no doubt!! Vibe is killa cool
thanks bruh
well edited
THEY KEYS GOD DAMN
thank you.
cool metaphors SOgifted. I can feel that.
My mans in the fast lane pivoting........
Kanye is an amazing producer
amazing beat
dat was a good ass verse man.
Let the sun shine,
Let the rain pour,
Let the dead rise,
Let my soul soar,
What I create is imagination,
Don't underestimate my foundation,
Artistic is my personification,
Creeping thru the city on moon lit streets,
Lights glow by as I slump in my seat,
No destination and no where to be,
Hoping an idea, some inspiration, comes to me
Miss the old Kanye😩
Buy his old shit
overduidelijk nederlandse hiphop liefde keep the spirit alive!
this beat is off the chain
I'm late but good message man. Nice.
Smooth Instrumental.
not knowin where to go frome here feelin like i should
steer my life in a different direction
gotta learn somethin gotta learn new lessons
plunge into life head first
don't give a shit if my life gets better or worse
gotta steal opportunity fast just like a purse
rehabilitating my mental state just like a nurse
experimenting with new methods like science
applying every inch of my soul
into my work simply to reach my unatainable goal
being so dedicated 24-7 its taking its toll.
this is damn fine
this is my jointttttttttttttttttt
@DiscreetInfamy
Nice shit. You a real talented rapper, man. For real.
True Stories
Ur Nice Wid It!
that beat goes hard!!!
How do I feel the instrumental *AND* the original whole song both on a spiritual level?🔥
Man yo Common kills this beat. Come on yall now take a seat
My flow on a roll its outta control. You dont know what I got in sto.
I love Hip Hop. The game in me wont stop like a wrist watch
Time is ticking for this to end. But you know I want to do it again.
This food for rap got me hungry. I'm running yall like cross country
Penny for a thought? Where do I start?
I want to change the game so bad im insane.
But tho I try to maintain that Life is just a game.
From the chapelle show!!! all dawgs gotta EAT
I used to love this beat so much I always wanted to rap to it when I was like 13
MAN I LOVE THIS FUCKING BEAT!
First time i ever rhymed it was to this beat. ❤️
keep tha keyboard goin this beat gots potential
you dj are in charge im the vice presidental
If you’re reading this Jesus loves you!
it gets hard to remember the times of peace
fear from terrorists in the middle east
what about the wars in our streets
gang members killing to compete
its a dirty way but we all got to eat
so the struggle continues and then it repeats
stay rightious keep on your feet
nod to the beat as you sit in your seat
free your mind slow down the hands of time
you never know you just might find what you wanted to find
then you'll think back and remember this rhyme...
this is classic kanye...
"What's good, er'body? Quamax back again."
Looks like I’m not the only one who came from him
i love this beat
R.I.P to the good beats

Nice 1 Calla
I was born, reformed, with three horns
Lookin' un-born, in the middle of a storm
My style is different, so elegant
Pyroclassicz's a unique type of element
Innocent but my mind's so corrupted
I do not talk shit, slick spit or pop lips
Thats not me, humble stands by me
dance by me, if he tumbles, lands by me
A hundred MC's, but six percent are competition
Never repeat myself, I cant stand repetition
alot of words get rabbled out-
