"shh you gotta rap"
"okay I'm sorry"
They're so epic but also adorable
I love coming back to this performance, they do such a great job throughout, even with Mike being sick.
Everyone talks about how everyone Raps, but Paper Tiger and Lazerbeak put in WORK in the back there.
these are pros. they are working
wait thats what was up with mictlan? i feel so dukb i thought he was jus like nervous cuz radio lmao
I don't even know how many times I've watched this entire video over the past 2 years. Sometimes just put on the headphones and rock the audio. So good.
dito, mate :-)
Just found this. So rad. Realized as a fan that I've only listened, never watched. Just found the Dessa tiny concert show and now this. So frickin' amazing.
I had of heard of Doomtree. But I had never heard Doomtree
Holy shit...
Aren't they fucking amazing?!? Each of their solo records are amazing, too.
Wha?
This is my first introduction to this group. It's unusual for there to be so many members, but I love when artists are able to collaborate like this and form a unique partnership. They seem to have a wonderful group dynamic, and I love Dessa's voice.
Lord how I miss this crew. I listened to everything they recorded about a million times, and saw them live whenever I could (in Massachusetts). To me there's never been anyone quite like them.
wow..people actually thumbs down this?! i guess people have a harder time appreciating art than feeling the need to be appreciated.
To each his own. I just came across it, and I dont really dig it.
A collective of artists is a timeless idea. Love this! Seek similar minds and create!
I can't stop listening to this performance. My favorite group at the moment...
This is fucking brilliant on so many levels.
I was born and raised in Minnesota. I love your music. It is the music to keep me "censored " I do love all of your solo work I appreciate all of your work. In the end of the day you are known and loved. It strikes hard for the people you have touched. I want more from you all, but I am more willing to pay in for some mercy. Thank you all for everything, I will continue that mercy and strength you give to us all. I show your music . Not because I want to, but it helped me...thank you please continue
I've listened to this so many times. Holy shit.
I bought the 'No Kings album' and love it. But I still listen to this video at least once a week. There is something beautiful about the little imperfections of a live performance.
If ever there was a group of people that could give us hope for the future of art, passion and collaboration, it's Doomtree. Your circle of inspiration is leaking, thank you!
(In order of appearance in circle)

Dessa
Paper Tiger: Producer/DJ

Sims (possibly fucks with production)
Mike Mictlan
Cecil Otter: Rapper/Producer
If you're lucky enough to live in Minneapolis (like me), you should most definitely check any of their solo shows or the large DTR Blowout that happens every year. One of the best parts about DTR is that they show up in force to support each individual artist in their crew. Crazy good.
Wow, speaks to me on so many levels.
oh MY!!! WHERE HAVE I BEEN??? THIS IS PHENOMENAL!
much love to the MN scene ...would have never known...until I moved to NO, WI
northwoods!
and dessa...gurl..my god! blowing up
much love to you all!-me
chi town btw..but got love in my heart
"i give them a cheap laugh but i get the joke" holy shit what a fucking line to end the song
Can't believe I get to see them all together alone live. Favorite upload I've seen ever. You got taste.
How doesnt this have millions of fuggin' VIEWS AND LIKES!??!?!?!?! This is dope
***love Doomtree****Dessa is amazing...all in all so much talent. I love the support you all have for eachother! Awesome!
I like all of them, and their style, and their approach, and they are all handsome, and I would let all of them read me a book to go to bed, and I bet they hold doors open for people, and I bet they make great soup. I'm gonna read the comments, I bet someone wishes they wore more gold, acted more hard, and were less grounded, were less white, because that's what comments sections are about. Whatever, for any of that, they have earned a nice meal at my house if they come back through this time next year. This is what family looks like.
Noah Goyette completely correct from every possible angle. I love you and thank you for putting it succinctly.
i literally wept at the end of this. holy shit real hiphop. it's been a long long time coming.
We don't even live here is a very fast paced raging inspiring.
that version of little mercy gave me chills
This group is fantastic. That being said : goddamn Dessa is a damn goddess.
Also:

Yes!
The Wu Tang Clan of the Midwest
Super spot on. I never thought of that before
Can't believe i put this vid off for so long. For once youtube and spotify was right to recommend them
this was the first doomtree video i ever saw, i read a post about them and looked them up.. damn wut a gem, peace love and good music
That ending was so fucking amazing. Props to Mike Mictlan
So happy I found this collective.
The second second is about tripping...a life changing trip obviously.Man, super intense.
It hasn't been 24 hours since I heard this collective and they are bowing my mind.
My little brother told me about these guys and I'm loving Doomtree. Going to see them with Hellfyre in March! Can't wait!
Hellfyre Club and Doomtree tonight @ The Waiting Room (Omaha, NE) at 9pm. If you're going, then lets party together yo!
One of my favorite videos on all of the internetz.
musical therapy girl you hearing my thoughts for real!
I loved seeing doomtree at soundset!!!
Little Mercy ❤️
Its a Hip-Hop symphony and the music is the conductor.
Happy these videos finally made it online, listened to it live online & at the Croc show!
Great session KEXP (as can be expected). I was so disappointed that we didn't have anyone available to do video when they came through KDHX. Thanks for sharing.
gold stars for the gold bars, they all spit and original music by the band awesome shit
THANK YOU! I've been hoping these videos would be posted at some point.
Rewatching this to prepare myself for tomorrow. Can't wait to see Doomtree!
Thank you to youtube, and every single one of these peoples mama's
Just watched the Doom Tree session. Happy to see smiling Sheryl.
This makes my soul happy.
creativity at its fucking finest.
WOW, just.... WOW!!!
I just saw these guys at the MN state fair and they put on a great show. I am no hip hop expert but it was high energy and they were really enjoying themselves. Good group.
My favorite TH-cam video!
I miss doomtree
Me too, so much.
You guys are amazing!
Awesome~ MUCH RESPECT TO DOOMTREE & KEXP~
this is incredibly nice, thanks for uploading.
brand new Doomtree fan, all the way from New Zealand.
many thanks to KEXP for this great music .
Rap really needs this. I'm so sick of hearing how cool people are, and how much sex they're having with their pockets filled with money.
Rap actually has it in abundance, particularly concentrated in the Twin Cities, Seattle and the Bay area in California. It's just that it doesn't get the mainstream play that the stuff you mentioned does. Generally can't go wrong with Doomtree, Rhymesayers, Heiroglyphics, Blue Scholars, Common Market, Bambu, Sage Francis...etc.
rap is not hiphop. THIS shit right here is raw pure and unadulterated hiphop music. however, im not trying to argue semantics here... the bottom line is forlornspawn817 is completely dead on.
GlennMatthew Williamson
I fully agree with you about rap and hip hop. Also, thanks.
I fuckin agree... this is pure hip hop , raw rhyme skills at its finest,,,
downwithcheesecake love the peace in this conversation. TH-cam really needs this. I'm so sick of seeing people hating on other opinions
Love from South Africa
So glad you guys did this one!! Would love to see a session with Moritat playing their 'Clill Blanzin' . Peace
beautiful.
NEED THIS ALBUM.
I totally agree and I just discovered it today.
18:05 if you're inclined to skip the interview.
unbelievable awesome!!!!
truth, just enjoy what speaks to you.... youtube words don't change people's minds, they just invoke rage
Now she's got an interesting voice. Potential for greatness..?
THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME
LOVE this
@ 21:00 Cecil Otter absolutely kills me. I just got a signed copy of Dessa's book for an early Christmas present. I could not be happier. I LOVE DOOMTREE!
I watched some other live performances of theirs after watching this one first. And I must say, KEXP, if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have gotten into this awesome band. Their other sets sounded like noise to me through their recording devices. This was perfect. Great band and great station.
úžasné!!!
Just saw them perform at Launch Sacramento and they killed it! Awesome live performers
KEXP is the greatest radio station on Earth.. True story.
This is so fucking dope
Great video. Thanks for posting.
This is really a seven-head-allstar-group :-) "like"... where is the LOVE-button??
Each of them could easily stand for him/herself, but all of them together are definitely way more than just the sum of the single pieces.
Congrats and all the best wishes to Beak and his girl for Penny!
way too much awesome is happening in one spot...I'll have to watch it again :)
Cecil Otter has a good voice and a cool flow. Some talented emcees there. People that don't get this are weird.
I am officially a fan. This is excellent.
Unbelievable, found this checking out Grieves cuz he opens for Pepper tonight, this vibe is so contagious, I need more!
MINNESOTA ON THE MAP!!!
This is an amazing performance from a great Hip-Hop group!
P.O.S.
Strengths: Amazing flow, snappy wordplay, versatility
Weaknesses: NONE
Dessa
Strengths: Raps and sings seamlessly. Fantastic lyrics. Also very versatile.
Weaknesses: NONE
Mike Mictlan
Strengths: Energy, speed, great flow. Fun to listen to.
Weaknesses: Lyrics are often silly and meaningless.
Sims
Strengths: Charisma. Capable of great verses. Nice change-up in vocal tone from the other members. Spat pure fire on their S/T album.
Weaknesses: Too many weak verses. Better on solos and duets, weaker on the ensemble songs. His Doomtree work has gone a bit downhill since the s/t album. NO weaknesses from that album alone.
Cecil Otter
Strengths: Has good cohesive ideas when he's also a producer, e.g. Heavy Rescue. Capable of strong lyrics. Also has great clarity; I can understand every word.
Weaknesses: For all his strong lyrics he has weak ones too. Sometimes goes cornily stream-of-consciousness on us. Also not really a lot of charisma.
I love the group, but P.O.S. and Dessa are the bread and butter of Doomtree. And Lazerbeak, of course.
POS is by far and away my favorite hip hop artist, whats crazy is i can also call him one of my favorite punk artists as well, hes incredibly talented!
Love that P.O.S. is rocking the First Ave. hat!
Sick.
I bought that coffee table book at the POS/Dessa show. love your poetry girl!
That last verse that Mictlan lays down... GodDAMN what a heroic effort.
Doomtree rules, and after Bad Time Zoo, Sims is in my top 3.
Hip Hop is what you feel, while the rap is what you sing
(Hip Hop è ciò che senti, mentre il rap è ciò che canti)
Kaos - Centopercento :)
love this music you guys are amazing so glad I looked you up after I heard you on welcome to nightvale
Saw Sims live in germany and bought his "Bad Time Zoo". Amazing artist and doomtree is an amazing band. Love from germany
And they have a nice Maschine drummer :)
If it wasn't for their live performance during kanrocksas at kansas motor speedway i would have never gotten into them.
Dude comes hard always.
they're good but dessa is so next level
***** WTF????
yepppp
They're all great in their own ways. The ones I personally identify with most are Dessa, POS, and Sims, but they're all still vastly better than anything you'll hear on the radio ever.
I saw you on the pretty rave girl video lol
@@ggbbgvjhhggb1483 i prefer Cecil over Sims, but Dessa and POS are both def my favs tho..i think dessa just a bit more just because of how goddamn cool her lyrics and voice r
Fuck yeah! Dessa, SiMS and Cecil all are so awesome. POS lead me to DoomTree. i'm so glad i found him years ago
Every time Mike Mictlan comes on the mic, shit just blows up.
18:08 best song.
P.O.S Respect tha skill!
Their coffee table book just released a few days ago haha
