Kirk Franklin: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ก.พ. 2021
- NPR Music's Tiny Desk series will celebrate Black History Month by featuring four weeks of Tiny Desk (home) concerts and playlists by Black artists spanning different genres and generations each week. The lineup includes both emerging and established artists who will be performing a Tiny Desk concert for the first time. This celebration highlights the beautiful cornucopia of Black music and our special way of presenting it. We hope you enjoy.
Bobby Carter | February 25, 2021
Kirk Franklin, set up with his band and choir in a corner of Uncle Jessie's Kitchen, makes a declaration. "I know you're at home right now, in your draws, listening to some Jesus music. It's ok. Jesus loves you in your draws!" The Arlington, Texas studio, named after a long time close friend, features a large photo of the iconic "I AM A MAN" protest signs from the 1968 Memphis Sanitation Strike on the wall. The jubilant energy that Franklin and company emit, juxtaposed with a visual reminder of the strife that Black people have endured is illustrative of the importance of gospel music in the Black community.
For nearly 30 years, Franklin has been widely regarded for revolutionizing gospel. He incorporated secular music, particularly hip-hop, while preserving the message and integrity of traditional gospel. Here, he and his powerhouse choir pace through a decades-long, sixteen Grammy award winning discography of faith, praise and encouragement while cracking plenty of jokes. I cannot recall a more moving Tiny Desk home performance.
All month long, we've presented artists that speak to the diversity and complexity of Black music--where we've been, where we are and where we're going. For the final show, we take it back to the spiritual roots and there's no one more fitting to cap things off than Mr. Kirk Franklin.

I’d like to speak to the manager. Why wasn’t this an hour?!
🤣🤣🤣
Ok Karen
My bestie was like I'm going to complain to Kirk that it wasn't long enough. Lol. I told her you gotta teach out to Tiny Desk because Kirk could hit us with the Jesus Rock all day. The length was NOT Kirk's fault. He would've given it all to us if he could.
😭😭😭they not ready for an hour of Kirk Franklin it’s they loss
That’s probably all they could afford 😫😫
This was about 82 minutes too short.
I KNOW THATS RIGHT!
For real though
OKAY?!!
LETTEM KNOW
I couldn't agree with you more.
The Bassist deserves a Grammy off this performance alone!! Sheesh!
FACTS
Bass made sure he didn’t overplay, But still made sure he stood out. That’s Balance & Discipline.
Underrated comment 💯
Darn beast mode through and through but like you implied, classy and balanced ❤
I mean he overplayed like crazy but in gospel you can get away with that.
MARAVILLOSOOOOOOOOO❤❤❤❤
I would say he was filling two roles of bass and lead guitars @@TCharlieA
THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!!
THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!!
KIRK FRANKLIN IS ON TINY DESK!!!
Amazing to see!! Getting me through right now!! 🙏🏾💜
Hey Kev! Stage crew here. Very proud of you and thank you for representing black excellence and an exemplary Christian. God bless!
Kev is about to have a ball with this Tiny Desk performance 🙌🏾😂
Ayyy, Kevonstage...love your channel ❤️.
@@dxgable thank you!
WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THE BASSIST. SHEEEEESH
I’m taking about him!
That melodies from heaven, he slaughtered it!
Come thru bassist!!!
The bassist was 🔥🔥🔥
I was literally thinking this when I came across this comment. He’s incredible
Still can’t get over the bass
Phenomenal
Me tooo bro; me tooo 😭😭
He said, “that R&B is cute, but let me show y’all where it came from. PERIOD”
Not just r&b though. Basically most genre if not all
Truth!
Ok for real this was amazing
THIS IS WHY I WANNA WORK FOR NPR ONE DAY!! Y’all killed this!
Hello somebody!
I’m currently in the hospital undergoing intensive chemotherapy and daily blood exchange transfusions. I needed this. My soul desperately needed this 🙏🏽
I pray for your complete healing in Christ Jesus
By Jesus stripes you are healed. Claim your healing! 🙏🏽✝️💜
Praying for you Stephanie. You will pull through!
God is healing you sis!!! Praise God🙌🏾
I Pray that GOD "SHOWS OUT" On your behalf!! I prophesy healing to you🙏
It’s 2024 and I’m still rocking this!! Thank You Jesus!!
Anybody else getting brain aneurisms from the bass players chops??? He's too good
riiiiight!!!! and the drummer too!!
I was about to point that out, lol. Monster bass playing
Matt Ramsey is the beast
Bass player on point
Masterpiece!!!!!!
I rebuke these ads interrupting this concert in the name of Jesus
AMEN
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
In premium we pay, Amen 🙏🏽
@@TChaositself 😂😂😂 I was thinking that but your wording is the best. 🙌🏽
@@TChaositself 🤣 may the lord bless ya handsomely my good man
That bassist is clearly auditioning to be the bassist in heaven....He got the gig
Lol
Fret not... low, I am with thee...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
he probably got the gig too but came down for some 15 mins show and tell
😂
I am Japanese. I hardly understand what they are saying, but I was moved to tears. Thank you for the great music.
I think that you were crying because of the joy of the Holy Spirit. Do you believe in Jesus Christ?
@@elihanperalta4451 Yes, my daughter goes to a Christian school and I myself pray every morning.
@@fukkontube Amen! That’s the most important thing. It’s faith in Jesus Christ. When you give your life to Him, you are filled with the Holy Spirit. Feel that forgiveness for your sins and the joy of the Lord. If you haven’t given your life to Him, you can pray to Him and officially confess your full faith in God in the name of Jesus. If you already gave your life to God, great! God bless you and your loved ones!
Beautiful comment my Friend!❤🙏
Music touches any and everyone regardless of your skin color or ethnicity
Everyone loves the bass but the singers are vocally perfect ! sounds identical to the record lol pure angels
THIS ITSAMAZING !! The way their voices go though 🥲🥲🥲🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Real talk singers are dope
2 years later and this 15 minute video still gives me joy! ❤
15
没事听一听,提神醒脑!
Literalmente ❤
Same!!! Here watching it for probably the 100th time!
😅😅😅
Bass player think he’s in heaven already worshiping with the angels.
he’s right.
Facts
I love !! Bass!!
Truth
Yeah 🔥🔥🔥🔥
How do I find the ones who disliked this? I just want to talk
Me too. I need to understand.
We choosing violence this morning
Ok talking will help how?.. 😂😂😂😂
Nah! We need them too! Motivation for greatness! Amen! Kirk killing the game. Undeniably!!🙏🏽❤️
Like for real!
Black music is undefeated
The bass restored my will to live...
Bass player killin' with a straight face. Pay him extra.
It's so wilddddd
IS!!!
Yes he is!!!!!!
EXTRA!! Ok?!?
That would be Matt Ramsey killing it man! ....
FIRST OF ALL... We needed a full concert. Yall wrong for this worship tease.
I know right!!!
That's exactly what it was a tease.
I mean FULL atleast an hour long
Right lol
An absolute shame!!!! We deserve at least at 75 min set lol
How do these singers sound so immaculate? Zero flaws. Exactly like the record, possibly even better.
There is software out there such as Ableton... and there is pitch correcting software as welll.. But I believe they are great singers individually as well
Muslim and absolutely not used to hearing Gospel songs, and yet this Kirk Franklin Tiny Desk makes me reinforce my faith in God.
Ronnie 6:36

The bass player woke up and chose violence that day..
Lol😆😆
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I was thinking the same thing
This guy 😂😂😂
Faxxxs
My God he was in his bag the whole time😩‼️
This bass player is RIDICULOUS. Man I gotta get in the shed. This is sick
Matt Ramsey
@@Biggiewiggie thank you! I was asking around what his name was!
He is just amazing, the tone, the fire, the groove!! LOVE IT!
Ridiculous!!!!
Bruh he was cutting up on Melodies from Heaven. It makes me wanna learn more and more everyday. I need to buy a bass!
I'm still jamming to this Tiny Desk concert 2 years later 💃💃
Me too🙌🏾🙌🏾
me three
Me tooo! 💃
same here man

Can we praise that genius BASS!? Matthew Ramsey ladies and gents ✨
I’d rather have Jesus than anything this world can offer.
Amen!!
Amen!
🙏🏾 AMEN
😆
Id rather have a clue but that's just me.
Why isn’t this longer? Kirk got too many hits for this too be so short... y’all better give him another one
Tiny Desk man... it’s always short.
@@realSimoneCherie there have been some longer than 15 minutes
Factuals!
@@luvlivlife23 could be his decision, you don't really know
@@AQGOAT24 who cares? It could have just as well been their decision too. None of us know. my comment was light hearted. Meaning he has done so much and I enjoyed this so much I want to see and hear more. My comment and opinion stays the same.There are several people who made the same comment it’s not that serious
Words cannot describe how much I want this Tiny Desk performance released as an EP
You can convert this video into a track
dude that bassist is just unreal
The bass player just secured his home in heaven 😌
I agree
😂
These runs!!! Holy mother
😂😂
😂😂😂
the ads interrupting me during my praise and worship are DISRESPECTFUL
Same!!!!
RIGHT?! My finger went to the mute button SO fast.
Right?!!$
Extremely disrespectful. Its like selling wares in the temple.
Man! So disrespectful!
when Kirk says that God has a plan for us in 2021… i’m watching this in 2023 and giving thanks that 2021 was the year where God brought me through chemotherapy and intensive care, and healed me of leukaemia. glory be.
brothers and sisters you have an open invitation to give a concert in my living room any time!
Praise God!!!🙏🏽🙌🏽❣️
Jessica you have a great Purpose. Much Love ❤

It's nuts. He's amazing.
Right!? He is just disrespectful!
OUTRAGEOUS! OUTSTANDING! OUT OF THIS WORLD! Just...OUT! LOL
YEAAA MAN....I believe his name is Matt. ABSOULTELY insane. He's on James Fortunes last live album going crazy as well.
He smiled when it was Melodies from Heaven and I knew something was coming! 🙌🏽
Who else had the STANK FACE throughout the ENTIRE set????
Yeah, Yeah Yeah 😂
from the moment the first chord dropped
Yesssssss currently
Yessir.
Did lol
That bass tone got me born again. 🙏🏼
Big love to Kirk Franklin and team for this blessed performance!
Ississisissisissis8ss8se8d8ss😊
I suffered from infertility tried for so many years to get pregnant. I always prayed to god to please bless me with a child. I was watching a mother play with her son on tik tok one day I cried and screamed to God "God please give me a child!!!!!" that same day something in me told me to take a pregnancy test... it came back positive! I couldnt believe it I was in tears and in shock!I took more pregnancy tests and they all came back positive! A week after I found out I was pregnant I found a cross necklace a few steps away from where I worked at and I then knew it was really God all along and never left my side. I now have a 11 month healthy beautiful baby boy. He's turning 1 in a few days! ❤ God is good!
That's so beautiful!
I’m not a musician but... CAN WE APPRECIATE THE BASS GUITARIST?😭😭😭😭😭
I was looking through the comments to see who is playing
@@mdr1849 yesss!!! Ended up following him on insta😂
@@mdr1849 Matt Ramsey is the name.
That's exactly what I said!!! I just started learning bass and it's moments like this that make me both want to give up and try harder at the same time 😂😂😂
I was wondering what all the compliments for the bass guitar was till i put on my earphones. Boy o Boy. He's .......................................................
As a white kid growing up in a multi-cultural church i cannot express my gratitude for all the black musicians and gospel artists who have influenced me and have me helped in my personal growth as a person and musician. Thank you!
🌅🙏🏾🕊️❤️
Tampa in da house via Philly 🙌 Shout out from JAZZ1CAFE Internet Radio 📻 NeoSoul🎶Hip-Hop Jazz🎶R&B🎶
Amen!!!
Let me rephrase that: "As a kid growing up in a multi-cultural church i cannot express my gratitude for all the musicians and gospel artists who have influenced me and have me helped in my personal growth as a person and musician. Thank you!"
There.
@@PCanas well i mean musicians have inspired him and many others. Black gospel musicians definitely have a certain sound, don't think it's harm to show gratitude.
The background singers is giving me chills.
Even as an atheist. I still love this and find this moving. Much respect for Mr. Kirk and the crew for spreading positive vibes whilst i wear my one sock listening to this lol
Music crosses all boundries and belief systems
Thats the beauty of it
❤❤
I hope you’re blessed listening
How this bass player is murdering the bass and doesn't even make any expression.. he's just unbelievable
MATT RAMSEY IS HIS NAME
Mat Ramesy boy only 25
for real for real !!!!
Dude is LEGIT
I was waiting for him to make the bass faces but man was just chillin vibin while absolutely killing it
NPR we need to talk about these ads.... I can’t get my praise on with the interruptions 😫
Hahahaahaah!!! I’m witchu when you’re right!!
Forreal
They’ll just tell you to purchase a TH-camRed account 🙄
Looks like I got lucky, I didn't get any ads at all.
@@taicato185 you have TH-cam red ? Or premium that’s probably why. There were about 4 ads 😫
Kirk is a music genius‼️ Pure God given talent 🙌🏾
Yes he really is
Here in Brazil we would not be able to continue. We would be smiling at the bass player the whole time.
Is American black gospel music popular in Brasil? 😆 I saw a comment that says "where there is funk there is Brazilians" and I think it's true
@@Ami-ut2us But they are different styles, the funk played here is not soul music, but a popular style with beats. There is no way to make comparisons. Anyone who is a musician and plays an instrument likes quality music.
The bassist is definitely doing the work of the Lord
This is funny 😆 yet so accurate!💪🏾💯
Those are some truly anointed fingers!
comment. Its all about the lord, not the bass
@@williemaemusgray6793 he is in the bass too!
@@magcarb5489 yessss
If you've been rocking with kirk since the early 90s, like this
Since silver and gold, I think
Since My Desire w/ Fred Hammond
I weren’t born yet but from ‘01 it been that way lol
DAY ONE!!!
Been raised on his music.
Bass player is something serious !
Still here 2024🎉❤thank u lord for keeping me n blessings my life continuously my God never leave nor forsake me
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssss
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
27 years ago I bought a CD by an artist named Kirk Franklin about whom I knew nothing. When I heard "Silver and Gold" I sat almost breathless for the entire song. It has accompanied me over the last 3 decades, through the ups and downs, and has kept a very special place in my heart, in my spirit. When they started in on Silver and Gold on Tiny Desk I just lost it. Like seeing a dear friend after many, many years. After witnessing an act of unconditional kindness. Like being wrapped in the arms of love. Like feeling lost in wilderness and then realizing that you are connected to something far greater than yourself. That you are cared for. That YOU care.
Wowzers! I felt it too ❤️❤️❤️
Amen Eric!!!!! Perfectly stated, Brother!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
💕
God bless you - beautiful words
Yep Kirk is definitely a legend, what an awesome performance they should get nominated for an Emmy for this performance.
This jewish agnostic had no idea she would be crying to beautiful gospel music this morning, this made my day/week/month/and year!
💖💖💖 Kirk Franklin has a way of doing that ❤️❤️❤️ (many other gospel artists too, just makes your soul feel like it’s getting a much-needed hug ☺️ lol)
Yesssss. Get that cry on! It’s a beautiful thing! ❤️
Jewish black girl here ... feeling is mutual ..❤️❤️❤️
Love from Him will do that to you
Could be the Holy Ghost? :O haha God Bless you
Something about Gospel music that is just so up lifting. That woman that's singing the high parts...she's slamming!
Today I officially accept Jesus as my savior and this song plays while I pray. Thank God for the best decision I could have made!"
Glory to JESUS, you are welcome to the family of GOD... May you never loose your salvation,may you grow in your walk with GOD IN JESUS NAME AMEN.I love you,GOD loves you most.
Man if y’all don’t get back up there and do “Brighter Day”
frrrrrrrr thoooo 😂🙏🏼💯
Lol truuuuueeee
Hellooooo!!!!!
rightttt
😂😄😍
These women are killing soprano sitting down singing Melodies?!?? How sway?🔥🔥🔥
Look! I was just saying, “come on sopranos!”
Definitely! 🔥🔥😩
I'm currently unemployed after resigning from my job last year. So, I wake up everyday feeling disoriented that I can't do the things that I ordinarily do with ease, financially. But I'm encouraged by the song "Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord unto me. All that I needed Thy hands have provided....." I know I have overcome. Thank you Jesus.
@resetthesoul8064 Through Jesus you will see breakthrough in your finances. You are going to back on your feet! God got your back❤
Just here for the 100th replay. How is this better than all album versions? 🤯😍
I’m no christian, but you know the music is healing when you ‘re crying and have no context for the tears - holy ghost or not!
God loves you! Be blessed! 💕💖
That's how I feel when God's trying to get my attention. It's unexplainable. But He loves us too much to give up on us.
You don’t have to be christian to believe in christ. Religion is a distraction...there’s one God and he loves us all!! The fact that this touched you means a lot. Just be open to him and Be blessed🙏🏽
The experience of Christ's healing power is not exclusive to Christians. Those emotions? Definitely the Holy Ghost!
Amen! God is not exclusively Christian or Jewish or Islam or Catholic. He belongs to us all and we belong to Him. ❤️
I’m sorry but this should’ve been 1 HR. This definitely was praise and worship before the main service at church lol. I miss these days. Definitely going on a Kirk binge tonight
Amen
Indubitably
Yes Indeed!!!!
Wow what an awesome Praise and Worship team! God is so amazing!
Wrdddd🥰🥰🙌🏼💯
Play that bass SIR!!!!!! Play it
Bass player had his way this whole series
This Concert speaks to the consistency of Kirk Franklin's music. He just jumped between 30 years of music in 15 minutes and there wasn't a drop in quality or a drastic change in feel.
FAX
Yesss!
Who are the ppl singing ?
@@Nylah-lm9os are you serious? He introduced them all at 4:00.
@@MrGuto o ok
that bass player deserves a nobel prize for what he did here
Rbody buddy 😎
One of most ”tasty” bassist i have ever heard.. he kills it
The bassist is amazing who is he?
@@alvinanderson7229 Matt ramsey
He is really really good. It's insane
He beat the heck outta that bass and didn’t even look phased! 🔥🔥🔥 I love all the music and singing but I frequently listen just to hear the bass line!
obviously the bassist impresses but the quality of the backing singers is monstrous, accuracy, groove etc... perhaps even rarer. Kirk Franklin is a very intelligent artist, knowing how to surround himself allows him to shine!
There's like maybe 10 people in there but it sounds like a whole choir!
Yep, and only 6 singing
YES SIRRRRR!!!
Melanin Magic
Kirk Franklin operates that way....
That’s how Kirk rolls man.
this was unexpected, but i'm not complaining😂
Right 🤣
Me either!
The funk is strong in this one. That bass back there holding down the backbone.
No fr😭
This is the comment!💕👏
Matt Ramsey….Unbelievable!
the bass is going crazy on this one 🔥
This is definitely in the top 5 best Tiny Desk performances. Edit: This IS the best performance hands down.
Absolutely!
Yesss!
100%. Absolute fire
hey empressive I love you channel....This is beautiful ☺️ I haven’t heard good gospel in awhile!!
What’s above this one? Cause I wana check it out
You can never tell me black people aren’t amazing
i know. i love us 💕
Preach
Who ever disputed that today? 😂
That's what I love 💘 about Kirk it's ok👌 to dance 💃 and praise 🙌 🙏 at the same time why being you're self 😆 piece and love God Bless everyone 🙏 be safe 🙏
I literally said aloud to myself as I watched, "Black folks are literally THE MOST AMAZING in every way!"
To everyone that is involved in worship...musicians, production, camera ops...don't ever think that you are simply doing a job. You are creating an atmosphere for GOD to move...for him to reveal himself in the hearts of those who are truly open and need him the most. GOD is doing the rest...he just wants US to roll out the red carpet for him...to exalt him....to be a conduit for him to work. Great job to all!
このベーシスト凄いな。技術も個性も。
主観だけど、少なくともこのバンドの中でなら一番目立って一番かっこいい。
STARTING THE MORNING WITH SOME PRAISE AND WORSHIP!!! THANK YOU TINY DESK!!! 🌄🌄🌄🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

He is not used to it at all 😂😂
THOSE MICS ARE DEFINATELY ON
every bass audition tape, just got thrown in the trash thanks to this cat.
Tears of joy. Thank you Kirk!!!!!!
King on King
Really thought he started playing All I Need and saw your comment here. What a day.
hi jacob
JACOOOOB
I thought of you when I heard the intro to the first song
I have to confess that I'm not a religious person, but there is something special about gospel that genuinely moves me
Your spirit is live and your ancestors are
That’s your spirit connecting to the Holy Spirit. Religion is a non factor to God.
Totally with you on that 👌🏾
Same, everything about church puts me to sleep except gospel
Don’t worry about that baby, it’s just the Holly Spirit.
I was having such a bad night and this blessed me....God is able..I feel the peace returning to my troubled heart...
May God comfort you and keep you! 🙏🏽💗🙏🏽
To all my sistas, SMILE!!
😁
This was not a concert. This was an Uplifting.

We all need a full concert

Right!
Exactly!!! I was truly vibing & forgetting about my worries.

As a Muslim, I'll be the first to admit that Black American gospel is so powerful & immeasurable in it's impact. So much of popular music is built on it's foundations. Love Kirk & these fabulous musicians!
Allahuakbar!!!
A lot of good music comes from the gospel from around the world.
Respect!!
Allahu Akbar
Facts
That. Bass player is making that thang sing!
This was one of the most pure and pleasantly surprising npr tiny desks! Gospel is an art!
Kirk: "You're at home sitting in your drawers."
Me: *Covers phone camera with hand* like, "Kirk stay outta my bizzness!" 😂
😂😂✔️😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣

I’m offended this is only 15 minutes. This was everything!
I feel the same exact way..
Okay!
exactly!!! during a pandemic all tiny desk concerts should be 30 min. exactly!!! period.
It went by too fast
LOL, my thoughts exactly...offended...I was in my groove...esp after melodies ended..was just upset like..no not cool
what a bass line in love theory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Matt Ramsey is incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Matt Ramsey on the bass guitar 🔥🔥🔥🔥
For anyone who don’t know who Kirk Franklin is, he’s a gospel genius. He has never really been a singer but he writes his own music and lyrics. He finds the best singers and musicians to bring his music to life. He’s a Gospel legend, and he’s not even done yet.
Yewppp
The DJ Khalid of Gospel.
Exactly! Not even done yet!
I have loved Kirk's work for decades. Every time I hear a song he has written it is inspiring. Kirk brings wonderful energy and glorifies God through his work.
He’s not a singer, but he is a KILLER musician. Kirk can write a song, assemble a choir, blend voices.....etc. if you don’t know him, you late to the party. Don’t analyze it. Listen to the old stuff and get that Kirk Franklin experience.
When SILVER AND GOLD STARTED ,
1. Threw my head back
2. Stretched my arms out
3. Shouted COME ON KIRK !!!
LIKE THIS ISNT MY MILLIONTH TIME HEARING THIS SONG
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I was singing the verse like I was back in Youth Choir.
🙌🏿 Twas 🙌🏿 not 🙌🏿 READY !!!!
I was ready to see who would tear up Mrs. Mann’s part! Lol all of those singers look like they can SANG!
LISTEN!!!!!!
He’s wrong for stopping melodies from heaven lol 😂 I was jamming so hard !!!
