The Experiment feat. Mos Def @ the Red Cat December 27, Houston, TX. Robert Glasper on keys, Chris Dave on drums, Jon Jon Web on bass, Mos Def on d mic! Classic material! The best musicians of our times on display playing hip hop!
Damn, you see a bunch of brothers grooving and you think of smoking a blunt? I wish you could see with my eyes, because I feel spirit and depth that would need it.....but I'm from a different tribe than you are.....so....
+Mizz Hadassa We feel it with the same eyes man, we just enjoy it with different perception, and there's no tribe. The only tribe that i expect is A Tribe Called Quest ;) peace and light.
@@mizzhadassa322 Chris loves joints shut the fuck up man judgy asshole, most of what you have heard about weed is a lie , Bet you dont have a problem with alcohol
I was hoping he would put down the flow he spat in "Thieves Of The Night", cuz those are some of the most epic bars in the history of hip hop, but this here was cool. He got down on the beat and had fun with it, and I totally dug that:)
It would've been an absolute joy. But I like how the audience initially recited some of the chorus, and Mos/Yasin gets that smile on his face, thanks them and picks it up from there.
original track is so good already and i mean mos def is versatile enough to do something like this just proves how hes a legend. never heard of the other guys on the instrumental but god damn they killed it
Mos (in my opinion) really compliments what's going on, which is rare to see. Most rappers these days haven't had the word 'musical' be described to them as anything important.
I love the feeling between Dave and Web. Glad that this is posted here - I missed when Glasper came to NYC Sympony Space, and I've been curious. Hip hop is better with live musicians. I like how Mos Def isn't afraid to quote the older joints - You can git with this, or you can git with that. Sweeeeetness.
Anyone got a link for the full set? It's so good I leave any woman I'm with if they can't appreciate it! I saw Talib in Brooklyn and Blackstar in London. I'm 39, their album came out when I was 18. Word
Mos Def's flow and lyricism is incomparable. And Robert Glasper is a master of the music. Two masters of their craft coming together to make TRUE magic. REAL MUSIC LIVES!
A Tribe Called Quest, Common, The Roots, Lauryn Hill/The Fugees, Nas, GZA, Outkast, Jeru The Damaja, to name very few, There are more than plenty to discover :)
This is the paradox of infinite Infinity and life's algorithm of perplexed serenity and the tranquil affect of tranquility in a kinetic energetic magnetic poetic theoretic subconscious thought through wisdom and ability to see From the minds third eye

I dig this!! Wow, he sounded a lot like Gil Scott Heron, esp at the very beginning and also at the end. Whichever poster can't hear the bass well, you just need some nice headphones. Bass man is jammin'!! ~peace 3~
waooooo probably the best track i ever heard performed live one of the best waoo they really know what they do hehehe arent they? the best heheheh so he uses live musicians for his tracks so is kinda jazz without lirics
@petzaman1 no. it's one offshoot of jazz and jazz isn't relegated to a more hip hop direction in the modern world. a lot more is happening with jazz and some of it is still in the traditional jazz vein and progresses a lot in that direction as well.
