She never got enough shine in my opinion.
She is the music video "overnight celebrity"
Facts💯💯💯💯💯cuz she’s hella talented smh
i agree
deadass
Actually she did, look her up
Her reaction to that Biggie was Priceless she knew she had the crowd then. A trailblazer super talent
She killed it!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏
Can you tell me the name of that tune?

killed the moment :::@@kingatlanofatlantis3075
I remember being a kid staying up late and seeing this. I remember thinking “damn, thats talent!”
Rrrrr9rrrrrrr4rrrrkr4r4r84 rr4444h8rrrrrr8rr4rrr4rrr4r3rr4rrrr4rrr rrrr84rrrr r rrrrrrrrrrrrr r8r84r rrrr
I love it when she hit the Biggie she , smiled and looked at the crowd like "now y'all know what I'm saying " 🤣🤣🤣🤣 . 2022 and , I still come back you this
She absolutely killed it but can we show some love for that old school DJ crushing on the ones and twos! Love seeing real cuttin and scratchin with vinyl! Great job to both!
Still one of the dopest hip hop violinist I’ve ever seen. She played all the right songs and incorporating the DJ is a super win.
That smile when she saw the crowd go crazy is priceless
It's no wonder her violin doesn't just burst into flames 🔥
She is absolutely brilliant but honestly massive credit to the DJ, provided he is doing it live (which it looks like he is) he’s astonishingly good
I think he is because of the era it was and from the little i know of DJing for that time that's the only way it could be done? So yeah it is super cool to see. Feels like a lost art.
When that Biggie joint hit, got them on their feet! Goosebumps!
That record is timeless. Big up DeBarge too
For the life of me I can’t think of the biggie song without the lyrics.
She actually made me cry shes so good ❤
Me too...I got chills and had tears in my eyes. Love her and the DJ.
She made me fart. I got goosebumps she's good
I love that the DJ is using RECORDS. so talented you guys
Violin sounds like it's singing when Miri Ben-Ari is playing it. She's dope. Miri Ben-Ari was discovered by Wyclef Jean, for real?
Kanye West put her on with College Dropout and Twista’s Kamikaze. That’s when I first heard of her.
I remember seeing this. I was blown away. My daughter plays the viola and violin & she's inspired because of Miri Ben-Ari. Thanks for setting the tone.
u see? now this is talent! and also very good DJ skills?
why we don't see these things anymore?
this is entertainment!
Damn where's the VIEWS at? This shit is FIRE!!!!
thats what im saying
+Cees Hawkins You, today's dumb, ignorant, fuctard generation know nothing of this kind of real music cross over of real instruments. So yeah. Fucking love this though.
02:28 what a magical moment..
Her 2005 solo album should’ve been marketed better. I still don’t know how it got overlooked by so many with guest features from Kanye West, Fabolous, Lil’ Wayne, Baby, Pitbull and so many other big names.
recently found it on vinyl
The build up before she got to the biggie part🔥🔥🔥. This whole performance was insane. What an amazing talent
Only 100,000 views. This needs a come back!
So damn true!
She is so underrated love her 💯
U didn’t too many shots of the crowd because u could hear them. Her talent was undeniable and the audience recognized it.
The smile she gives @ 2:31 gets me every time.
"GOT EEMMMM!!!"
Your comment locks into what I love most of this unparalleled clip. A very white/Jewish musician is performing for a VERY black audience using an expensive and exclusively privileged instrument (the violin)...but does not pander to them and instead respects them.
Her 'GOT EM!" smile @ 2:31 is saying 'We connect, even though our cultures and sensibilities are terribly different by nature. Today though, let's come together and ignore that ugly word called "bias"'.
"Got emmmm!" because she simply thought it was cool that the crowd liked it works, too.
Right
@@fullbag50 The entire front row of that "VERY BLACK" audience could probably cover the cost of a violin with what they spent on the outfits they bought for the night. And that "privileged" white Jewish girl on stage is a poor Israeli immigrant. Who got expelled from High School because instead of going to class she had to hustle that violin to keep a roof over her head. So while I kinda get what your trying to say.... there are alot of false cliche stereotypes in your comment.
@@1scubas2 agreed. This was about music as a language. She's feelin it, they're feelin it, that's what the smile is.
This still gives me chills, awesome talent and love seeing the crowd enjoying themselves so much
they’re very in sync! props to both of them, incredibly blessed and gifted 🥰
We miss you Miri. Music definitely needs you.
Yo! This had me open! I actually cried cause she be hittin' notes that reminded of my adolescence. This soothes my soul.
Can you list each song she played please and thank you
Top Respect To The Dj he gave great performance
Always come back to this video to remind myself to never stop playing . My teacher showed me this back in high school .
This universal language with no words is just so beautiful. The whole room had the most joyful pure energy vibrating all together on the same level ❤️
If Twista Overnight Celebrity brought you to her Like this
+THAKINGMUSIC hadn't seen that vid in ages . I just saw it again 2 mins ago and had to know who the beautiful woman playing the violin was
Yessss it did she's talented
Absolutely
I kneeew that was her..... TALENT
It did..lol
Its awesome that someone thought to mix up classical instruments with hip hop. Everytime I hear Miri Ben Ari ft Styles P - We gonna win I get goosebumps. Dope!
I remember watching you in my teen years and back then you killed it im 40 now and I spoke about you to my wife she has never seen your video and I'm so glad you never left my memories may God bless you in every way you have touched people's life thank you
I love how the crowd loses it at 2:30. :D
AmbieTv2 No matter how much time has passed, you play B.I.G. in New York you will get that reaction.
💙
It's the head nod for me.
I remember her like 13 years ago on 106 & park
That's where I first saw her too. Her rendition of Oohchiwally was crazy.
I remember watching this.It was breath taking,and fresh.
