Everytime single time.I schedule out time to watch this DVD/clips. Once yearly in full, clips inbetween. We NEED another one please Dave Chappelle. Thank you for this. It was much needed! Peace and Blissings
That's the essence of real african sounds right there. Just reminds me my culture. My sisters from the other side of the sea , channeling our ancestors. Peace
I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE THIS. Erykah Badu & Jill Scott together on-stage hot! Two of the most sensual soulful, deep earthy, these Goddess bring Universal energy like the night sky.
Easily one of the most defining moments in hip-hop/ r&b artistry. A moment we could all wish to happen more often but will be a rare happenstance. Erykah and jill were switched and alternated for that one song on the record. It was a witnessed magic brought from the full potential that are the artists of Roots, Erykah, and Jill. GOOSEBUMPS!!!
tanisha morrow . the record company took Jill off cause they wanted a higher profile singer and put Erykah on it. so he's correct they were switched for that song
@@jeanjacque1577 And I hope the record label learnt that they all own this together with love (Roots, Badu and Jill) - so glad a performance as amazing unfolded to prove it.
+Shy Foo that was the original song. I think the label put Erika on it because she was on the same label and Jill was on a different one or something to that effect. I still get teary-eyes watching this. Such a beautiful moment of blackness
This group was absolutely insane mannnn Playing one of the best HipHop songs of all time, then innovating it That's what you call progressive bro The Roots are something special fr
This is a monent in Black musical history that could NEVER be forgotten or re-created. I played this DVD performance for every single person i knew back then. Fire. 🔥💯
damn you felt it too shit I thought it was all these onions I'm cutting lol jk......I didn't know that that union could bring forth that kind of energy to move me to tears smh that's powerful
This performance is FIRE! I love it, but nobody noticed this was a battle about a song on stage. These are Queens, fitting on stage and nobody noticed it.
Grew up on this! But hearin again makes me emotional!! Fr I can’t even lie! I LOVE MUSIC LIKE THIS. Unbelievable talent, please resurrect this type shit!!
Jill Scott get writers Credit so she has made more n will continue to make more $$$ off the song than Erykah ever will ...anybody can "sing" the song the writer is the one who's song it is n by right the one who should get all the glory
I love how much of an inspiration Erykah is to Jill, how they love e/o work and always lift one another up. They both make amazing music and are great actresses, I love seeing women show their support and appreciation They have a really good mentor/( mentee?) relationship
Would love to see Jill Scott and Erykah Badu make an album together!
That would be so amazing
Under a single that one has witten and the other one is famous for. 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
I’d would literally explode........
Me, too..so much. We can add Indie Arie and Lauryn Hill...that would be nuclear...
Yes!!!! Well said! I am here for it. Could you imagine the tour!!! Come on!!! ❤️
Forget the 'neo-soul' label.
This was a classic moment in SOUL music history. Period.
Let the church say Amen!!
Anyone else get chills when listening to this?
Hell yeah ✊🏿✊🏿it’s on repeat
Literally just got them haha God bless❤
Everytime single time.I schedule out time to watch this DVD/clips. Once yearly in full, clips inbetween. We NEED another one please Dave Chappelle.
Thank you for this. It was much needed!
Peace and Blissings

That's the essence of real african sounds right there. Just reminds me my culture. My sisters from the other side of the sea , channeling our ancestors. Peace
cecil toungsi peace!
Influenced by 60s psychedelic rock
He's not talking about that
@@snoochpounder No, it's the opposite. African music is older...The rock stars were influenced by jazz, gospel and soul....
The original sounds of the EU-melanated people's of the America's.

Add Lauryn Hill from Fugees and that would be cosmos of voices 👌🥰

Erykah always bringing those soulful bohemian vibes. You can tell her presence is felt by the way the guitarist was staring at her. ❤️
Cody Chessnut!
I feel you but don't get it twisted Jill is a 👑 standing there herself
@@tpthecalm9438 I wasn’t discrediting her at all I just didn’t mention her.
Who's here because of the upcoming Quarantine Versuz Battle 2020 : Erykah Badu vs Jill Scott Edition 😄

+Jonathan Blaze Gave me chills!
+Jonathan Blaze they're on some progressive metal shit
+Shy Foo that was the original song. I think the label put Erika on it because she was on the same label and Jill was on a different one or something to that effect. I still get teary-eyes watching this. Such a beautiful moment of blackness
+sclSolitarium Just a beautiful moment , Passion and soul
Jill scott,Lauryn hill,Erykah badu...the neo soul trinity
Dude on the electric guitar is on some futuristic shit.. dope af

This group was absolutely insane mannnn
Playing one of the best HipHop songs of all time, then innovating it
That's what you call progressive bro
The Roots are something special fr
It touches me physically emotionally and spiritually. if you're not connected to the universe you wouldn't understand what's even going on here
Shut up
00:52 - 1:15 Maaan. I'm just trying to imagine what this sounded like echoing through the streets.
Electric!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Danielle Piper - Absolutely.
Man, forreal!
man, 2 have BEEN there !
lindseygreenberg they where at live 8 in Philly it was simply amazing
That run Erykah did at 2:29 is sick! The whole thing is just nasty!!
Both of them from that point are just next level
This is a monent in Black musical history that could NEVER be forgotten or re-created. I played this DVD performance for every single person i knew back then. Fire. 🔥💯
this entire movie was amazing
This pure excellence of blackness is overwhelming....
These are three amazing musicians/ groups but the note Eryka hits on 2:24 from in another planet. Unreal!!
I,ve never been so high off a performance before, damn!! i wasn't even there and i could feel it.
fabian anthony ..I was thinking the same thing
fabian anthony ..If your not connected to the spirits you wouldn't even know whats going on here
From 2:15, I have to confess, was my 1st time I ever cried because of music...
damn you felt it too shit I thought it was all these onions I'm cutting lol jk......I didn't know that that union could bring forth that kind of energy to move me to tears smh that's powerful
same...every time...it's a spiritual experience
Still a banger 2023 💯
Man, Quest love on the drums not really paying attention yet still on beat. CRAZY. Love this song.
It's upsetting how good this is.
perfect words....
Jill @ 3:29 gives me goosebumps!!! Powerful voice
This performance is FIRE! I love it, but nobody noticed this was a battle about a song on stage. These are Queens, fitting on stage and nobody noticed it.
It was tho.. A serious battle
About ?
Willow Leaf
Who sang it better erykah is like I sang it but Jill is like I wrote it
But, ?uestlove puts it together to make one beautiful version
This was a phenomenal moment in music! Two of the creators of the a massive moment musically in 1999 come together & sound great 5 years later! 💕
This just beyond. Every time I watch this it makes my life better god damnit. They're so beautiful!
I thought I was the only one!!!! ❤️💛💚

Grew up on this! But hearin again makes me emotional!! Fr I can’t even lie! I LOVE MUSIC LIKE THIS. Unbelievable talent, please resurrect this type shit!!
who else came because of the live battle?
live performance ... there is no battle.
I can't imagine that this kind of powerhouse flow will ever be duplicated, amazing!!!
The Roots and Mint Condition..two of the dopest bands formed
Whose here to get ready for their IG versus battle on may 9th 😂
Do I have to be on IG? I dont have that. Only you tube. 🤦♂️
“ …when i use my mind
i win the race …”
little know fact Jill Scott was on the original track but because at the time she wasn't as popular as Erykah, Jill was replaced .
Jill Scott wrote those lyrics
Yep..
They are both my girls. Im glad Jill's light got to shine through out here career. These are phenomenal women.
Jill Scott get writers Credit so she has made more n will continue to make more $$$ off the song than Erykah ever will ...anybody can "sing" the song the writer is the one who's song it is n by right the one who should get all the glory
I can listen to this over and over again..
This is the best version of my opinion. It doesn't touch any of the other recordings
THE POWER ON THIS STAGE!! It sends chills to my spine, and tears from my eyes.. listen to it on repeat daily!
When I use my mind I WIN THE RACE......... Sheesh
Yeeeessssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is my favorite version of this song so far.. the distortion on the guitar and free styles from the ladies made it completely awesome
Channeling the spirit's.. I get goose bumps every time I hear or see this. Man I just wish I was there !!!!!!!!
I felt like I was there. I can't imagine the spirit of this amazing experience live and in the flesh.
Erykah's run at 2:29 is absolutely sick!
Ha! always loved this.. love both but you can tell Ms.Jill know she ripped that! luvs it honey!
Jill Scott wrote the lyrics and Erykah Sang them. Super Dope
Erykah Badu is perfect. Perfect.
I've watched this at least 50 times. Each time I'm speechless.🙏
If you ain’t get goosebumps when they both start singing together!!! 🙌🏽 #TwoQueens👑
They went crazyyyyy
lawd this was SICK

My whole body is tingling. 🔥🔥👑👑🖤🖤
Ancestors coming through !!!!
I'd give my right arm to go back in time and be there
+Diego Quintana Me too!
This is my favorite rendition of this song, because they're both on it.
I was in the Crowd that day…..one of the most AMAZING JAM SESSION versions of a Song you can ever witness by two of the Biggest voices on the planet.
This is just one reason why Dave Chappelle is a legend.
Pure FIRE! This gave me those GOOD kinda chills. A soulful amalgamation of two vocal powerhouses with such unique sounds. Wish I could've been there.
To Have them to be able to put all of their differences aside with regard to the Grammy win, this is a huge deal and we need to see more of it
My favourite band plus my two favourite female singers. I'm in heaven😊😄😂
Almost too hard to watch it because it’s soooo goooood 💛🌻💛🌻 mama Jill is everything. BEAUTIFUL SOUL 🌻🌻🌻💛💛💛

I love how much of an inspiration Erykah is to Jill, how they love e/o work and always lift one another up.
They both make amazing music and are great actresses, I love seeing women show their support and appreciation
They have a really good mentor/( mentee?) relationship
Jill wrote the song but they used Erykah on the record because she was more popular
🎯
The label made them re-record with Erykah Badu, yeah.
