Word. The most part of these "spectators" is the people that don`t even listen at least one album of Mos Def but they have friends who can get you a pass on the battle (because battle is not for everybody, it`s a "close" event). Moreover, the ambiance and furnishing on the battle are differs from the concert - people come to V1 for dance battles, not for the music.

Yup. That's how it is around these parts. Plus, it's not a concert, it's more of a showcase or a class learning about HipHop.

Auditorium brings tears to my eyes. The melancholy in the lyrics and beat are out of this damn world. I love MOS.

This is phenomenal. The first track is an instrumental from a Ghanaian highlife legend Alhaji K Frimpong from a song titled "Chen Chen bi adi mawu" Mos is definitely tapping deep from his roots in Africa.

Correction its Vis A Vis - Obi Agei Mi Dofo Meaning "Someone stole my girlfriend" Recorded in 1977 lead Vocals by Anthony Yeboah. Both Vis A Vis and Alahji K Frimpong were on the same label Ofo Bros (Ofori Brothers) If you've noticed they have a similar sound, this was mainly because Vis A Vis Band featured on most of his albums. Check out Sammy Cropper and his Wire Connection (Lead guitarist) released in 1978 on Makossa Label Album title "Papa Akwasi" produced by A.K. Brobbey from Kumasi. He was also a Record dealer.

Michael Thompson He is a one of the kind

Mos Def(Yasiin Bey) is one of my favorites. He is authentic Hip Hop. They probably expected him to be the typical image they expected. He's not. So out of respect their listening. This makes performance even more exciting. He got them paying attention. He's coming from a spiritual aspect of the message of hip hop . This is a Brooklyn King.

DID HE JUST SING THE FIRST VERSE 4 TIMES???.....DID I JUST ENJOY EVERY MINUTE..... NOOO DOUBT.

His aura is INCREDIBLE 💙. Mighty MOS!!

Man I haven't heard Ecstatic in ages! Good to see him so happily performing these

YOOO I played this concert on the big screen in my loft and I really made me feel as if I was in the Concert...It was a Great Bey Performance.. Big Respect Bey and Keep it goin....

Thanks, I was wondering what song was that!

Instrumental taken from vis-vis Ghanaian Highlife fusion classic Obi Agye mi dofo. Bey really dug deep in the black music archive for his gem. Most of the audience have know idea 💡

It’s crazy watching Mos go through his creative process during this show, the way he finishes one song and blends into the next is incredible….it’s almost like he ends up there rather than planning to be there. Right around the 43:00 minute mark he hits this amazing stride and by 48:30 he’s literally spinning in circles like a top while the music crescendos. So dope, such an amazing talent.

Mos had a good time performing. Straight from the heart ❤. Much love

The crowd was clearly blown away, nice job yaseem !!!

It is one of my ultimate dreams to be able to see this man, the one and only Mos, Yasiin Bey, live. A Brooklyn Shakespeare, a master craftsman and living legend.

I had the honor of meeting him in Baltimore .. photographed his performance .. he is a legend

The first song 'Fear not of man' mixed with the Ghanaian highlife song...cannot stop listening to that one. Toooooo nice!!

Amazing show, Mos Def still got the essence

Through any weather, this guy never fails to melt me like ice. Eternal love.

I just came here for the alter ego remix and I was not disappointed. mos def is a legend.

Mos Defs best work to date. Followed his entire career. This is levels above

He rocks to any beat! Thank u for this live concert. Wondering why the audience is not into it -lame. You’re at a live show, get up out your seats & dance. This was amazing & the energy, ❤ Mos!!!!

1 of a very few that sound live even BETTER!!!!

i injoied every bit of this. mos def the legend my peeps

His performance was so beautiful. I watched the entire thing. The crowd comes alive and then he takes them on a musical journey that had the power to set minds free. Thank you Mos Def!

I am now behind schedule because I found this haha been jamming for 35 mins! I'm finally pressing pause so I can get in the car and drive to the laundromat 🥰 put in my earbuds and listen to the rest! Good vibes!!

I love Mos so much and seen him rock live........I aint even paying attention to the crowd!!! Im gettin bizzy in my kitchen watching this right now!!!!!!!!!!

Wow just got chill a watching this. The crowd had 1 dude actually singing any of his lyrics. I would have been bugging out! Mos is the man. New black star what whaaaat!

God is sufficient than the plans they prepare

One of the greatest to ever hold. A mic

Elegant,Devine,spiritual and powerful from a good soul🤞🤲🙏

He's my favorite artist that inspires no literally pushes me to be my best self because God is so good and we can

Yasiin Bey ó Mos Def 💖🇲🇽 música para el alma. :)

I keep coming back to this again and again.

They know who Def be.... Legend isnt a Big enough word. I first saw this Living Legend Perform in Washington Square Park for free in summer 1989 or 90. I paid to see him perform at the "Muse" meat packing district that same winter. Those people are in 'SHOCK' ! How do you behave when God is on stage. Everyone is Breathless...micdrops.. He been the Best.. Most soulful, Lyrical,Original. Fuck a Chart topping single ... We already Know... He's one of the MCs that come before the Top 5.. Somebody tell him... We said it.

The Mighty Mos Def sonnnnnn!

Performance so beautiful i shed a few tears. Appreciate it...

I always come back to this performance when I need to be uplifted

Another beautiful time. Red roses for love always.

I would have been loosing my mind with excitement at this show!

I love how he's singing all the Mos Def classics and some new ones!

Mos Def is magical, the flow, the singing n dancing😍😍

No matter how much negativity roams this earth....it cannot stop the Gods of Hip Hop from shifting the atmosphere..." 1973 baby"...

Mos looked like he was filled with the spirit of Marvin Gaye by his body language!

cant get enough of this

Contrary to how it appears on the surface, I get the impression that This Crowd is TOTALLY FEELIN' our Brother Yasiin. Around 30+ minutes they were Rockin' with the Brother "Mos Definitely". ShalomPeaceSalaam THEY KNOW AND ROCK...... "PUSHKIN". BUHLEEEDAT!

Glad I could find this video

He might be the best MC of all time!

The greatest performance hands down. Yasiin Bey a blessing to the world!

This is a perfect HD recording of a stellar display of masterful artistry. If your perception of the crowd's reception is a distraction, your big takeaway, or what motivated a comment, then you are the one who really does not appreciate what Yasiin gave us here.

LOVE it. Beats from first sound got its origin from Africa. Ghana to be precise

Holy fuck I love his singing so much

Timeless performance!!! Thank you!!!💎✌👌🤴👑🧠🤑🙏😄

incredible man.

I can see where he coming from. he too real without the bad words. positive lyrics.

geez this crowd.... woulda been up front losing my mind dancing and going crazy

2019 still reppin!🙏🤙🇵🇷🔥

MOS!!!!! Peace to the Planet💜

Best performance i've seen this year..most definitely keeping it real..

This was straight beauty to my eyes m ears

Music like this moves me. I would not be sitting like these people. Life's too short to sit and watch good, fun music.

such a legendary emcee/poet/performer! Love the energy when Mos rocks the mic!!!!!! 🎤🙏🏻✌🏼💎

Quit playing around, Mos. The world needs a new Album from you and second Blackstar Album, make it happen :)

Que gran artista. ❤

mos def knows how to make sound fantastic

One of the rare times on youtube I've cursed that I can't hit that thumbs up more than once. This would have got atleast 10

Russia you are listening to great talent, Much Respect to Mos Def for giving Russia Brooklyn own!

Yasiin just out here rapping over one of the best Tame Impala songs and having a blast while doing it! Joy such as this is mad infectious

even though he doesn't speak the "mother tongue", he speaks in the cadence and tone to show respect and gratitude. i don't know if it was intentional, but he is a true human being, artist, musician and soul.

The best time in my life was seeing Mos Def and Talib do their Black Star album live in it's entirety at Toad's place New Haven CT 2006.
