Common - Testify (Official Music Video) 

🎉🎉

Its crazy

Me🙋🏽‍♀️

Me af

We outside

She’s so mediocre at best! That’s why she’s complaining about her pay. She wants to get Angela Bassett pay but she’s a c list actress at best

You mean cookie that was cookie Playing that part

&THAT 💇🏽‍♀️hustle&flow WiiG!

Video to mirror song nicely

@@BabyMay-bh6ji YVETTE! 😂

Beat very very good

Didn't even know he created the beat, it's one of my favorite things about the song.

​@@djoseph5130it is a sample of 1972 song

@@djoseph5130him and jdilla produced this entire project this song is from.

Thanks for this didn't know it's the ol Kanye's beat

the whole G.O.O.D catalogue was fiyah !

Stfu not its not.

Personal opinion. You or no one else has to agree because I WASN'T TALKING TO YOU. STFU

this is great! I agree with you!

+Korey Sylver This song is a great example of Common's brilliant story telling abilities... and Kanye West's fire beats.... classic

+Andrew Abela and Anthony Mandler's vision as a director.

Never knew they were bros..never saw them in shit

I though this was Bill Duke. Man.

The Honey Cone - Innocent til Proven Guilty is the song

Diana Ross

Those vocals are Edna Wright from the Honey Cone not Diana Ross. The song he sampled is called Innocent til Proven Guilty.

@@ladyt3701 That's Diana Ross' voice?!

Yeah, Dorothy, he knew exactly what he's saying

Have him check out Bugzy Malone then

THAT PART!!!

Still listening in 2021

I miss that too, Michael Jackson will Always be My Favorite Genius To Watch And Listen to, All his videos has me glued to the TV Screen, I fell so In love with Watching My favorite Artist creating Mini Movies, As I'm writing This I'm Thinking About The "Renae Song By Mr Cheeks.🙌🏽 😍🙌🏽 That song was And still Is 1 of my faves to watch, And That Aaron Hall Song "I Miss You"🙌🏽

True

Big Facts

Underrated AF

@iman Is it a video? I will listen to it.

I'm telling you.

Of course Kanye produced this jewel

No ID taught him

@@christinagraham2915 l ppl

We did... this is Empire lol 😂

You can it’s called “Usual Suspects”. Great movie, this video is the plot from that film.

@@realone7903 you got a point. but it would be interesting if there was this exact setup also. the queen pin character. it could be a way to revamp the whole story. to make it even more like usual suspects all the names she provide the not so bright detective should be from the room itself and she shouldn't give her real name. it would be really funny if she wasn't even his baby mama and the stupid detective let one of the quys enemy get access to his children. that could get really dark

@@sonyapeach thanks

ME

he is a bad ass mother fucker. I refer ofcourse to the series silo, never knew him or listened to him🙃

_Mia_Winters forreal tho she fits the part

Yes she will get it soon

_Mia_Winters SHES from the streets seriously DC

She is the best

Lol

Great minds think alike 🤙🏿

She look like the grinch

Blk don’t crack

U a lie

She’s a witch

yes but at the end, she smoked a cigarette, something that caught the prosecutor's attention. Prior to that, she stated that she don't smoke when she was offered a cigarette, but sadly he realized this too late, and she was gone by the time he went outside to look for her.

True!

Mona Lisa by Lil Wayne has similarities...

True

Story line

Listen to Joyner Lucas. I'm a old head this young kid has it.

So, I’m literally trying to get back to my music roots. Because when I was a kid back in 05 I didn’t know what this song was about. Now that that I’m well past grown it reinforces my notion that women will support a thug that’s obviously a bad for them while laughing in the face of decent dudes.

that line

@@TexasTeaHTX is that what you really took from it 🤦🏾‍♀️

Realest line ever

@@TexasTeaHTX truth

yung neckrolls from kanye

ROKIA KOUADIO YEP Yeezy beats are the best

yung neckrolls props to kanye

still... just wow ... i remember listening to this on tv probably not 106 and park but also once on 106 and park lol... or mtv jams? idk

Ashiko Smith Yes!!!

mmm Kendrick Lamar, J Cole just to name a few...

murru19 oh hell yeah they both got the art of storytelling down pack.

Look up immortal technique dance with the devil. Don't let the beat throw you off the way it ends Will have your jaw on the floor

Oh, I know about that one. Some real cray barz in that one.

tkoharris He's not underrated at all.

@@puk3fairy highly underrated*.

@@lyrics2challenged he's not underrated. He is normal rated. His music just isn't as commercial. Every hip-hop fan knows sales ain't talent.

+Ayesha Hassan Ikr Ironic! lol

Illuminati confirmed😂😂😂

wow good observation

+Ayesha Hassan wait what do you mean by that

uhhDescent because she acts as Cookie Lyon in Empire :)

Britt B a pun for blowing smoke up their asses while escaping

Lol and the look she gave was off the chain as well!!

As soon as she brought her head up, smirking, with that look if deception in her eyes........ #QueenPin #,QueenTaraji

I agree this man is seriously talented , saw him with his new group on , "WAIT FOR IT" PBS BEON FANTASTIC

He was and has never been underrated. Every song he made was a hit with real hip hop heads. He’s the ultimate story teller. Strictly streets always.

Not really. The man has Oscars and Grammys. Lol

Common is a hip hop poet

Because he from Chicago.

well in real life sometimes there is no revenge. Also in the court of law it's not what you know it's what you can prove

girl yes. there should have been a part 2..

You ain't never lie

You know the history with sequels. Nevr as good as the original

Yes

Relevant asf

Factzzzz 💯👑🎤

Factssss

Haven't listened to it in like 2 years and its randomly stuck in my head for the last 3 days. One of my favorite hooks ever simple and sweet.

2021 in the house

Alexis Holman today my teacher was playing this and she went to church with them two before they became actors

Alexis Holman Right!!! 🤯

Wait what 🤯

Cassandra jorge bill duke is not related to harris's stop lying

Hustle n Flow. enuf said

Ccc l.p.

The song colder 😩

This is a actually movie that's why

@@marcuseversley3334 what movie?

I like a song with a story to tell too.

+Rob InfraRed this is one of the best man- i was suprised when i first heard it, way diffrent then what i expected from Common- but he is a legend

So true. It's like watching a short movie. :-)

Channel XII true story

word

Donn Jones. I thought your profile pic was dave Chappell as Prince

Donn Jones facts 👌🏾

Facts 💯

Yes 😂

Preach

Chuuuuuurch!!! lol

Amen

Coming from someone who dont know common or hip hop. Nobodys fault but your own if you cant keep up. Just listen faster

@germxv what a pathetic little man you are...bet you're 30 plus still sagging your pants lol

mine too looool

true

That would be so dope. Could you imagine if it were directed by Martin Scorsese though?!?!?!?!

QueenWJ Nolan's movies are notorious for the plot twists and shock, plus the visuals would be amazing.

ThatTuneGuy True. But Scorsese does amazing crime dramas. He wouldn't be able to touch Nolan's visuals though. I wanna go see Interstellar so bad.

the usual suspects is what the video is based off of its a great movie

Thnx! Will add that to my watchlist!

Lady-t Michelle love this trio

Lady-t Michelle Common used to date Taraji in real life!

I never realized that was him until just now.

5/3/21: 👍👍👍👍.

Righttt 😂😂😂

thatssss what I just saiddd😂🤣🤣🤣

Periodt. I wanted to make sure I wasn’t the only genius that thought about this song. 😂😂😂😂

Bill Duke is the judge. Great set of actors though. You’re right

a whole bomb cast for this video!

All this tima and I never knew the two of them were related! Now that I see them next to each other they do look a lot alike

Love this.

At exactly 2:27am, 7th May 2020.

@@sunni9044 That crazy.

ma husband ain't killin' nobody ... he didn't do this. Taraji is forever Cookey Lyons.

Yess

+Herr Oberst Wilhelm Von Borchert Oh my GOSH , I forgot they're brothers, makes it just better now.

Omg! I didn't know that they were brothers!

The judge too right? All three are brothers if I'm not mistaken; which is so clutch to me! They are great actors!

***** I Googled it and the judge didn't come up unless you know something that they wont put out online lol

Lol oh ok and thanks for informing me!
