When You're Good to Mama (1975)
Music by John Kander
Lyrics by Fred Ebb
Performed by Queen Latifah
ask any of the chickies in my pen
they'll tell you i'm the biggest mother
then
i love them all and all of them love me
because the system works
the system called reciprocity
got a little motto
always see me through
when you're good to mama
mama's good to you
there's a lot of favors
i'im prepared to do
you do one for mama
she'll do one for you.
they say that life is tit for tat
and that's the way i live
so, i deserve a lot of tat
for what i've got to give
don' you know that this hand
washes that one too
when you're good to mama
mama's good to you!
if you want my gravy
pepper my ragout
spice it up for mama
she'll get hot for you
when they pass that basket
folks conribute to
you put in for mama
she'll put out for you
let's all stroke together
like the princeton crew
when you're strokin' mama
mamas strokin' you
so what's the conclusion
i can bring this number too
when you're good to mama
mama's good to you - เพลง
♡ Hi folks, I'd appreciate it if you'd follow me on twitter.com/cemertem ✌
This is the scene that turned me into a raging lesbian
Made me even more of a lesbian
Welcome to feminist gang?)
Just like queen Latifah
That moment when you aren't out yet so you just don't look ať her 😳
This whole movie turned me into a raging lesbian
This music actually matches her appearance. she has a thick, curvy figure, so the song gets heavy on the drums when she dances or shakes her hips. awesome.
No hate but to think Cameron Diaz was offered this part. -_- ← like wahhhhh? Queen did great in this movie
jerricperrycp did you ever hear Cameron Diaz singing? she is awful xD
Laurelindorean85 omg no. She would've had to lip sing lol 😂😂
jerricperrycp The thought of her performing a role obviously meant for Queen, well it gives me gas.
Don't forget the perfectly timed drumbeat at that point where she makes her boobs bounce!
petition for queen latifah to literally become the queen
You mean she's not already?
Erika Belliveau aHnl
T
Maya The Psychic I love her
She's queen of the world! Seriously though, She's amazing.
Also, with the risk of being obnoxious - nctzen? Ahem, lovely profile picture.
Petition for Queen Latifah for Smash Bros
The Stage part was all done in one take on the first take. Goes to show how talented the woman is.
as if watching this scene alone isn't too much yet!!!
Jeffrey Whitmj.ljjatdrećkjnjzatfrlan
K9pimagen.
Damn right
Jeffrey Whitman yup
I was just wondering if she had to practice those sultry gestures a bullet of takes
She wasn't given the name Queen for nothing.
Kitty Grimm yup
That's right.
honestly, it was weird seeing queen latifah play the role of some hardened jail warden. I'm so used to seeing her play such nice and trusting characters. I mean even after that whole "I don't give a shit! Move out!" I still felt I could hug and trust her.
DayDream3000 House Party 2. SNM.
DayDream3000 Set It Off lmaooo but I see what you're saying lmao
+DayDream3000 I get it but that's also the point.
She's still a lenient warden that is well liked by the prisoners (mainly cause she's kind of corrupt, in the sense that she extorts the prisoners for favors to keep them pacified).
You never saw "set it off" then
Queen Latifah does NOT get enough credit for this routine! She knocked this out of the ballpark! OMFG, she is SO GOOD in this style! She has the body language and moves down pat, and she knows how to USE that dress to full effect. And OMFG but that VOICE!!! SHEER POWER, and I love it! I feel like her usual music does her a disservice after seeing her in this!
Also - I love how her cloth is green for greed and money, just like in the Cell Block Tango where they use red and white cloth colors for guilt or innocence.
If you haven’t, you REALLY see her in the Little Mermaid live performance as Ursula singing Poor Unfortunate Souls!!! She’s AMAZING. I’m sad she wasn’t he automatic choice for the live action movie bc she blew it out of the park with a deep soul moving performance. As in you can FEEL the characters emotions as she sings the lines.
Found it!
th-cam.com/video/rfBfuR8Jiqw/w-d-xo.html
I Love her and the whole cast on " Living Single"!
This is the most beautiful outfit of the he whole movie
She should have won the Oscar!
"They say that life is tit for tat, and thats the way I live. So I deserve a lot of tat for what I've got to give." Best line in the song
Yessss!!
Omg yesss
"You put in for mama; she'll put out for you!"
"So if there's anything that upsets you, or makes you unhappy in any way, don't come shooting your fat a*s off to me because I don't give a sh*t!"
jenncutt85 why is it that as she sang it I read it
God, what a woman.
Lambsquad_90 I know right?
I belive God ia a woman
She is the Queen
that dress is remrkable
Jacqueline Harrington I agree
"Ask any other chickies in my pen; they'll tell you I'm the biggest mother-----hen." XD
I was barely ten when I first saw this and it has never left me ever since
@e causey she was gonna say motherfucker
I've always thought Mama was a nicely nuanced character. She is corrupt, obviously, but not particularly evil or sadistic. She is just willing to play ball.
Them: so when did you know you were gay?
me: **sends them this link**
Ditto
omg same, that and the cell block tango
May Elise I was rewatching Chicago with my mom the other day and I realize cell block tango was 100% my queer awakening
BIG MOOD
True story
I've seen other people perform this but no one has had the same kind of stage presence and cheekiness that Queen Latifah had doing this song.
Now THAT is how a QUEEN performs!
xoTrustandBelievexo yup
Seeing this makes me think about when I was 5 and watched The Little Mermaid and when Ursula met Ariel! They should do a live action version with Queen playing Ursula! Just imagine Queen singing poor unfortunate soul
They didn't cast her :'( gutted
Happening now. haha
@@agdportillo14 YAS I know so perfect!! (Still wish she was in the movie but yaaay)
She’s playing Ursula in ABCs The Little Mermaid Live! She’s gonna be amazing
You’re in luck. She’ll be playing Ursula on Tuesday.
Can't believe I'm saying this; mainly because I'm strictly heterosexual, but man, I gotta say that's one lucky scarf.
Girl I'm arrow straight, but damn that is one lucky scarf. Lol. She's a hot lady an that's just fact.
And people think body positive is a new idea. Look at her, she's a queen for sure.
Ok but the difference is that she’s not dangerously obese
@@kellywhite3501 I agree... ?
The queen
@@michellexlawlesslatifah
@@kellywhite3501Well, there’s people who think that HEALTH of all things HEALTH is oppressive.
24 people weren't good to Mama.
HideousAngel 151 people now
238 people forgot the pepper.
264 people ain’t getting any gravy from mama
269 people don’t wash both there hands
You mean 291
The costume department really nailed this one
"If you want my gravy pepper my Ragu spice it up for mama she'll get HOT for you!"
Best line EVER! Queen Latifah is a goddess! XD
Lol
That's my favourite line of Chicago
Carole Dillard I agree
Best part
I just love the look Mama gives to the male guard when the main character says "Is that nicer?"
What an awesome song...
Badai CH yeah i did too. it was the look of " Are you serious?
She got an Oscar nod for this. She didn’t win, but she was damn happy when Zeta-Jones won for the same film
We don't call her the queen for nothing, do we? Fantastic performance!!! Gorgeous, talented woman who even playing a tough role still is funny. We all love you!!!
+anna cafagna I know! I love Queen Latifah!
Love Queen Latifah, so funny and super sassy woman.
Queen Latifah, more like Empress!
This woman sings amazing
I wanna cuddle up with Mama... she looks so comfy and squishy xD;
with that much attitude thats a bad idea
well hopefully she won't actually ask for money from just huggling a bit o_o;; -- then again, maybe you're right though, hah!
I feel like Mama would be the kinda woman who would be happy to cuddle you if you were upset and be equally happy to kick the backsides of anyone who made you that upset.
scarstalgia you need to be good to mama first
I don’t know if I’m laughing or completely in disagreement.
I love so much she is such a natural. No matter what she is in she always brings great talent and passion to it. Long live the queen.
She's great here!
And now I suddenly realized that after the poor, innocent Eastern woman, Mama was the nicest female character in all the movie. At least she didn't murder anyone or cheat... More honest than all the rest.
Nah. I think she’s one of the worst. She knew the Hungarian lady was innocent but she did nothing since the lady was not ‘nice’ to Mama according to her term.
@@GeorgiaAndrea how did she know? Nobody knew hungarian according to her story
i love Queen Latifah she makes any film better
Was I the only one who wasn't only mesmerized by her beautiful voice but also her crazy body, damn Queen I'm gay but damn if I was shape she'd have me going crazy
+Ary Irwin Lovato She does it for me too (especially that dress, hot damn), and I'm into guys as well.
the subtle way she grabs Roxy's neck when leading her out of the room...love it! ❤
Dear sweet LORD the burlesque performance in this scene is amazing
Makes me feel more confident as a curvy woman to see Queen Latifah absolutely kill this song with sexiness. She is absolutely gorgeous.
It should no little 110 pound woman like me could ever throw around that much sexy .
Ngl i've always had a little girl crush on Queen Latifah only because she seems to be the kind of person who dont give three shits about what others think of her and she's very confident but at the same time she's not so confident that she becomes arrogant. Like she wouldn't be scared of being honest with you but she wouldn't be outright mean, she'd be kind towards her loved ones as well.
Latifah must have studied a lot of Bessie Smith and Josephine Baker for this
YES MAMA
I'll be good to mama!
She is soo fabulous, I still can't belived the auditorium part was filmed in one take... the talent! God this is perfection
This musical is really good. with the scènes switchin between stage and 'real' life
She’s the definition of luscious
This is standard viewing to remind the kids that there were several big girls out here strutting their stuff before lizzo, putting on for plus size women. Namely, queen latifah, who looks straight up sexy in this number and NAILS this song. Anyway....All hail ALL queens. 🙌🙌🙌
This just made me realize that Lizzo should ABSOLUTELY play Mama in a production of Chicago someday.
Lizzo is trashy not sexy.
This is freakin beautiful thank the gods this exists.
They rlly showed a 14 year old repressed me this and expected it not to awaken anything in me
The embodiment of Power is Sexy... damn
Size does matter. Lol. When you look, sing, and move like Queen Latifah. " You put in for Mama, she'll put out for you" Love that. Oh yes, after watching this, the sale of long green scarves must have skyrocketed. Lol
"You put in for mama, she'll put OUT for you!"
WOW @q@
A man sang this for the pride show at my church and I'm not sure who did it better.
Comedy Classroom The pride show? At your church? You sang THIS??? What kinda church is that?
+marie watson A damn good one. This same man also ripped his shirt off during macho man XD
+marie watson It's Creative Life Spiritual Center, if you're wondering :)
Not the right kind of church....
+Arutemisu The best kind of church.
Queen Latifah was the perfect choice for this role! Her voice matches the song and her performance is giving drag realness!
Heard she's gonna be Ursula in the live action little mermaid. She'll do great.
Watched this in film class my teacher was shocked at how turned on everyone got
Same
This woman. How could you not be attracted to her. I’m totally straight but watching her shimmy does something to me.
That look from Mama when Roxie asked if that block was "nicer" LOL 😂
Queen Latifa beat the shit outta this role, it was MADE for her my gods
I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable listening to this in the same room as my parents, but I will say this is an amazing song, the music and the acting are great, and obviously they picked the perfect person to play Mama.
Latifah nailed this. 👌
She ain't the Queen for nuthin'!
Victor Wadsworth yup
Every dancer on the planet should watch Chicago and hairspray at least once in ther life
This is my fav song from this movie
What a goddess.
Goddess!!!!!!!!!!!! She is Amazing!
I love her she is so beautifull
Long live the Queen!!!!
Latifah/Dana is so versatile as an artist I’m so proud of her.
My favourite performance for the whole movie. Amazing.
When you're good to mama....
Latifah deserved an Oscar for her role here. Just loved her!
Queen latifah is such an amazing talent and sooo gorgeous 😍
Watching this at 30 gives me the same reaction as it did when I was 11 😂
Down bad 😂💀
Llego la gran actriz denle paso al esoectaculo
THE QUEEN!!!
Her figure oh myy 🔥🔥🔥🔥
to me she’s underrated like this women can act/rap/dance and sing she needs way more recognition!!!!❤️
Queen Latifa was so good in this. Just genius
when your name is actually Mama..
When you're good to mama
Mama makes me lesbian too
that one trombone player really makes this slap
Queen fine as hell
Dead ass the best scene in the movie
When Mama is dancing silhouetted behind the curtain It gives off strong Money, Money - Cabaret vibes IMO.
"They say that life is tit for tat and that's the way I live, so I expect a lot of tat for what I've got to give" = possibly the best line in the whole film haha :D
Queen performed this the other night at Ravinia and she was beyond incredible!
She’s is called Queen for a reason.
Every person in this movie was spot on.
This is one of my favorite songs, favorite character!
La mejor Mama Morton de la historia. Difícil o imposible superarla.
I am not really into Musicals, but this one blew me away.
I feel like I've been living under a rock..how on earth have I not seen this?!
Ugh whenever I see queen in 1920s style clothes she’s a goddess😍🧡 oh yes and also that red dress from Last Holiday♥️
What a great cast and this scene is my favorite. 😍
She is AMAZING 😍👑
Love your icon 😍
this woman dear God....
I love how in the English caption, they always address her as the full “Matron Mama Morton” every time
This song reminds me so much of Ursula's song "Poor Unfortunate Souls." I think it's the drums and the way the characters act. :)
prophetic comment here
She killed it.
now this would be my kind of curvy if i was gay. damn why lord why
Absolute proof that curvy ladies are sexy as hell
so much of this movie was my lesbian awakening as a kid, but this scene in particular...oh my GOD 💕
Queen Latifah such an icon ❤
god queen latifah is such a babe *drools*
natalie exactly!!! what a stunner
Dana Owens also known as Queen Latifah at her best
