Kanye hustles to establish his voice at the label. When a car crash and broken jaw threaten it all, the unstoppable artist turns pain into platinum. - Zábava
The feeling I got when Jamie hit the “oh oh oh oh” is the same feeling I got when I heard this song for the first time. Nostalgic. Simpler times man.
fr
🗣🗣🗣
Exactly how I feel and I couldn't stop playing it last night
LITERALLY I GOT CHILLS READING THIS BECAUSE IT WAS MY EXACT THOUGHTS WHEN I HEARD IT. CRAZYYYY!
🥲
The little “Ohh oh oh” Jamie does before he sings really is the cherry on top
Facts and the “Smokey Robinson, Freddie jacksonnnn” part adds flavour to the song too
I was thinking the same thing
He'll yeah gives me chills
@@user-qd6im2hp2e qa++qq
He took it from Cause I Love You by Lenny Williams
Jamie Foxx wasn’t lying 😂 we’ve heard him tell this story for years! Brilliant!
He actually kind of was. Because Jamie mentions that Kayne softly berated him for singing in a specific, old-school manner and that obviously never occurred in the clip. Jamie also mentions that he thought the song wasn't very good and would likely flop, but he seemed more than happy with the finished product here. Oh, and if I'm not mistaken, Jamie initially mentioned that this happened during a party that he threw.
@@SallyMankus130 in the doc they said they were at his house not sure if it was at a party or anything though.
Right. He been telling this story for years. Good thing the cameras prove him right. Right.
@@SallyMankus130 Well he was trying to get into the music business. And this is one of the ways by collaborating with new unknown artists. What do you want him to do tell him in his face its not good?
@@SallyMankus130 are u daft?? This is a short clip.. of course it's edited.. u wanted them to show 3 hrs of how they interacted.. 🤦🤦🤦
I love that Jamie tried to sing it his own way and Kanye fixed it 😂
This story was told in his interview on the graham Norton show
lol
You would think if that actually happened then it he would be included. Those just seemed like initial, warm up takes.
@@JustBree716 I know. Jamie has told the same story on various platforms about nine times. My point is that Jamie was embellishing to a very large degree. And what are you talking about? Cootie, the director, was literally recording essentially every min of the studio sessions for The College Dropout, which is why this doc even exists. As a doc director working digitally at the time, you shoot everything.
@@SallyMankus130 I wanted to see it😂😂😂😂😂
each clip is literally gold I cant believe they were sitting on all this footage the whole time, coodie had some insane insight everyone truly believed in kanyes genius and for good reason too.
this should be getting oscars notminations best artist doc I have ever seen
coodie dedicated his life to kanye thats real love man, he always believed in him from the get go
@@juanignacioarriagadawurth8527 I really do agree with what you just said.. Best artist doc I’ve seen no cap
Technically some of it was used for the video of through the wire
@@DMOWAIVERS riiiigggghhht🤣
This documentary made me respect him so much more as a person. With his childish unique attitude you never woulda guessed this man put in the utmost work to stand where he is standing right now. The utmost
Same here. Honestly put a lot in perspective. Why he is how he is
Definitely I hope he get his wife I hope he continue to live his life word
Despite his antics, You would've never guessed? That's crazy
why not? that's exactly what I would expect. that childish demeanor is exactly what allows people to endure the kinda work it takes.
Same. Kinda felt for him, when people weren’t taking him serious or crackin jokes right in front of his face. Great documentary though.
Kanye is a once in a lifetime artists whether you like him or not 💯💯
💯
🐐
there is a couple hundred of artists i can think of the top of my hat in the same era, so whether you think he's a genius or not, he aint "once".
@@maxmeier532 He's definitely a once in a life time artist. I always liked alot of songs by kanye but never really gave him the credit he deserves. He's produced so many elite and top tier beats, songs, and albums. This man has been in the game for 20+ years with multiple albums that have great songs and still is getting the attention of every age group. Not even em, jay z, lil wayne, 50 cent, etc was on fire this long. I think drake is up there as well for staying at the top and creating big time songs but he's only been going since about 2009 so kanye has pretty much 7 years on him.
@@maxmeier532 here’s the attention you asked for
This doc gives you those goosebumps. Had me getting up out my seat to rap every word.
Lol Ikr!
Same brother
Yep!
I've heard this story like a 100 times and now to ACTUALLY see it is crazy!!
What story?
@@wtvua7681 look up Joe Rogan interview Jamie Foxx about Kanye West
Jamie told this story alot
@@Flowstate-bc9ws Graham Norton show, radio show as well I forget which ones lol
@@wtvua7681 Jamie told the story of recording this on like 3 different talkshows
This is a CLASSIC record, it can be 2077 and this song still gone hit.
Facts
Cyberpunk Jamz
Better than Ponpon Shit
Frrrrr
@@xavieriswavierFallout reference
Beat is just ridiculous I don’t know if we’ll ever get this type of organic feel with production again, but don’t get me wrong the modern day digitize beats with unique filters and layered drums are on a whole other level these days in itself which is pretty unprecedented as well, yet something about how those loops and samples came together by Ye, Blaze and No I.D. Just seemed all world captivating when you heard them for the first time
It wasnt just loops. He had musicians playing instruments over all his s7^^. Most of this modern music isnt organic because motherf^%%% are emailing vocals and s7&^%. Plus you got 1000 weak producers putting together an auto tune bs beat
@@dianevrules true but the plus side to todays beats is there’s absolutely no drag, minimal distortion and lossless sound in every compressed file so there’s pros with today’s technology but cons with the organic curation
@@Dynasty19 gotta look at hitek make beats. He mics instruments and records the sound
@@Dynasty19 sounds like the same shit that happened w modern video games. Too much emphasis on making songs with no drag and no distortion (aka emphasis on good graphics for video games) but no focus on the soul of the music. Kanye and what this era had in general was the last semblance of human heart being poured into art work instead of a heartless corporation controlling the art that gets put out. I wanna go back in time
@@hello4169 that’s what happens when technology and the insatiable desire for profits meet everything gets over optimized but hey…🤷
1:59 that’s where things got serious in the room and you can just feel the hit being made 🔥🔥 as simple as that oh oh oh oh oh ohh is it was so perfect
I love that this was based off Kanye just letting Jamie free flow it and this was created 🔥🔥 still one of my favourite Kanye songs to this day 🔥
This part had me in tears, this is literally my childhood bruh. Shit was beautiful
Exactly what I was feeling and thinking. Crying bc the nostalgia and his perseverance, just great times man. Grateful to have experienced this
I literally got up off my couch when Jamie Foxx got it right and you could see everyone in the room's reaction to that being it. It's wild seeing the creative process
@@timfoy8419 I never thought in a million years we’d ever seen this bruh, it’s so beautiful
Facts
@@timfoy8419 I’ve obviously never been around someone as big as Kanye West, but I have been in a studio when that “That’s IT!” moment hits.
It feels like actual magic exists, it’s so hard to put that into words, and that’s just when it was making music I was proud of with my friends. I can’t even imagine the feeling of making a worldwide smash hit lol
Kanye once said” I got a light skin friend looking like Michael Jackson got a dark skin friend looking like Michael Jackson” lml legendary
He does say that in this song, he just hadn’t written that part yet.
Craziest thing Kanye has said lol
@@lightup6751 Nah hes correct. The lyrics are also from Slow Jamz. Man, listen to the song again.
@@lightup6751he says it in slow jams too bro 🤣🤣
@@lightup6751lol you listened to Slow Jamz again and heard the lyrics?
He told the entire world 20 years ago he was gone be something bigger than he can imagine and had someone record it ??! This documentary is pure inspiration thank you Kanye for giving me faith to never ever give up !
The fact he used that “Smokeyyy Robinsonnnnn” as the bridge is magnificent
This doc so good, one of the best I've seen in awhile, so motivational... Ye's drive is totally incredible and it's no wonder he broke through as an all time great and now an icon...
The last dance came in second, this is the best i hope is more footage for more episodes.
I used to bump Slow Jamz loud af in the car before my 5 am shift at Stater Bros, this album defined my teenage years
He fought hard for his album to be released. They signed him but didn't believe in him now that's messed up giving him false hope, but he believe in HIMSELF and HIS ABILITIES and with God's grace. He always been talking about God. I see you Kanye I am so happy for you one love🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Yup and timing is everything! Dame is so fake to me right now trying to butter up Kanye now, I know why Ye only messed with Jay z.
@@taylorwaylor8965 both were on that BS. He stepped on that stone good and is now wealthier and more iconic than either one-including Kim’s ass. He has a Mr. Hyde split off but I give him a pass for the unmatched beats and poetry.
I definitely noticed he always talked God in private and public. What an awesome documentary 🥺🥺🥺
And once his released this album, he kept taking things to the next level
This doc needs an award! Yes he may have crazy antics at times but I have to give him props for never giving up. I have respect for him
I love that Jamie tried to sing it his own way and Kanye 'fixed' it 😂
I cry every time I watch this. This documentary really put it into perspective of how big of a kanye fan I have been over the years without even realizing it. My iPod nano use to be filled with all his albums. Truly a treasure.
Kanye’s albums are a Time Capsule in peoples life’s. Specially the college dropout. Slow jams will be forever in my soul because that was the soundtrack to my very first kiss. I cherrish this album so much
iPod nano😂 definitively classic times! I had one too! Wish I could go back in time sometimes 😊
This is hands down my favorite clip of the entire series. It's awesome seeing them put together the pieces of such an iconic song.
0:01 that studio engineer had no idea what he was witnessing
Tell me about it! Told my brother the same thing. A lot of people doubted Ye
looks like Mike Dean
@@95rocket thought that too. If it is, looks like this was the beginning of a decades long partnership
@@95rocketYeah it’s Mike Dean it’s even has his mannerisms too.
110% Mike Dean.
The 60 Year Old hypebeast 😆
One of the greatest songs ever made
I'm a grown man but I dropped a tear now seeing how Kanye turned out. We keep saying "where's the old Kanye". Well this is the only way to reminisce about it.
It’s now completely valid to say I miss the old Kanye 😢
That first part of Jeen Yuhs was the best . I gonna keep replaying it.
There is no old Kanye. Stop disrespecting him
Wym the way he turned out? Exposing the industry and being woke af.
I'm all for throwing a monkey wrench in the machine but this is one aspect of the entertainment industry. I don't see Ye going after the private prison industry which has been feeding off gangster rap.
kanye literally started from the bottom, getting beat from all the upper ups. i wish the ppl who hate his music or doesn't want to know anything about him at least get to understand his history
beats will never see the light of day and get the love they deserve until THE artist hears it with their ears and decides to pour their words on to it and let the world hear the two combined for the first time.
Kanye and Jamie Fox both are very talented artist
Kanye’s face when first heard Jamie say “Ohh Oh Oh” man is a genius
This clip is so much more impactful because Jamie been telling us this story FOR YEARS!!!! 😂 he painted that mental image so well and now that we actual see the real footage it's like 🤩🤩🤩
I have no words to explain how I'm feeling right now this is so inspirational...mad love and respect for Kanye , coddie and his mother and his whole team .❤
Keep in mind Kanye had to use Jamie's studio to complete this track b/c he was on a budget for studio time using his own money to create content for both songs and music videos at the time since the Roc were stalling him delaying the release of his debut after his accident. Kanye also helped to legitimize Jamie as an artist with his 1st hit being slow jams since he was respected as a comedic actor and stand up comic but not as a musician. This documentary is very inspirational for many it shows how believing in yourself when no one else does and continuing to be persistent can lead to great things.
One of the best records created without a doubt
Most likely after he got access to his budget and started polishing things
Lol no cool song but not even top 50 rap songs of all time for sure or even top 10 Kanye ever did
@@beforeiselfdestruct5143 such a idiotic comment this is top 10
@@beforeiselfdestruct5143 if its not top 50 rap songs then it isnt a top 10 kanye song. ye the best artist since mj.
this part of the documentary got me hype when it was all coming together!!! it felt like going through a time machine! can't wait for part 3!
THIS DOCUMENTARY IS ART ON SCREEN. .IT'S LIKE A PAINTING THAT Is ALIVE..it's Picasso in a series
As Ye said it best “Name one genius that ain’t crazy” …. people don’t understand Kanye I swear. He’s just way ahead of his time. I’m always proud to tell people that Kanye is my favorite rapper and I stand on that statement. Kanye is Jeen-Yuhs.
He is a genius, his artistic abilities are unmatched
The pure genius of what goes on behind the scenes.
Wow this documentary is brilliant I can't not believe how well it's done and how inspiring it is..yhats is withouth a doubt the best document of an artist in music period bro..coo de will be winning awards for this...what's crazy is I never realised how hard he had to grind to get there...he really was a made man before they open up the budgets for him man...dude put it all on the line to get to where he at...the way they highlight ye and mom relation and shown how tithe they were was brilliant mam. Kudo to cool de and ye for that
Im glad there is footage of it. Always fun and iconic How Jamie foxxx tells this story
Onces again Thank u coody
This stuff goes to show how human Kanye was, just a kid still while Jamie was already big and killing it. Sad to see where he is now but it’s cool to see where he started and the brilliance
I know an artist has to do what they want to/have to do, and forget about fanservice, but I really think the years when he was a writer/ producer to his first years rapping/writing/producing, are something special. I feel like there was a brief period where he was universally loved.
I can't stop watching this clip; it's incredible! The level of creativity and talent! Chills 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
im sure you were all for taylor swift during the incident and with the media when they were against him gtfo poser
@Mellen D.E.Z who TF you think you talking to you freak. Poser! Like I ain't a damn music writer with my own website. I own the physicals of Kanyes' first 5 albums, you dusty ass fool. Stfu! I grew up on this shit& damn near 40 yrs old, you crusty ass clown. Kmft
@Mellen D.E.Z Kanye done some fcuked up shit and he needs help, but I can still appreciate his musicality and genius dumb ass.
Same
Man this shit give me chills it’s like a time machine watching a masterpiece be made💯 Kanye is a genius 👑 took me back to when I was a kid in Chicago in the 2000s hearing all Kanye songs 🔥
His musical genius is undeniable. When he said he was a genius, he damn sure wasn’t lying 🤷🏽♂️
One of the best documentaries on Netflix for sure. Def recommend!
I'm not a big fan of Kanye, would it still be worth a watch?
@@kee-logreenMight not be as engaging but still worth a watch!
Hope you enjoy it! ☺️
@@kee-logreen I think it's very good I think you get to know him better as a person especially since what's going on right now it's very good for people who like hip hop people who like documentaries I recommend it for sure
The classic story Jamie talks about in his interviews. I'm glad someone got this on camera
I've watched 2 episodes.. I can imagine the people who sat next to him or just talked to him and whole time didnt know how big he would be..
Incredible! I love how raw the beat sounds here. One of my fav beats ever!! 🙌
"Smoky Robinsuuuun" 🤣🤣
This is truly amazing,to think Jamie has been telling this session for so many years and seeing the full proof of its existence feels a bit surreal.
Man KANYE WEST is indeed an unquestionable ARTISTIC GENIUS...without any shadow of doubt.
I got nothing but pure respect for that brother.
Keep shining you beautiful JEENYUS✌🏿🇿🇦
Such a great Doc!. The making of a classic!
i love this song so much, this entire sequence is so beautiful
The fact that this is an all time great song and Jamie Foxx was playing around the whole time is crazy lol
Kanye been trending recently, this is perfectly timed
I'm loving this kanye west doc. They all did good those who rocked with him til he made it 💚🖤💜
I miss the old kanye, the sweet kanye❤
Bro Jaime talked about it. And I didn’t know they actually had this clip.
All this time we thought kyane was acting out but actually he’s just one of the weird kids who tried his hardest to prove his talent! Loved it!
Not true... was never weird
Kanye West is so inspirational! Why am I crying watching this…? Anything is possible if you believe ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🥺
Hearing the birth of this and Ye conveying the vision and message for the track and when Jamie Foxx starts vibesing gave me shivers and goosebumps...this some legendary shit here to have an insight into da Jeen-yuhs that is Mr Kanye West 🙏🏾👑💪🏾👊🏾✊🏾 thank you for the music and everything
It’s truly amazing to watch this documentary of how amazing Kanye really is and how he really worked incredibly hard to get where he is in life. This is Gold! Even inspired Jamie Fox to start recording 🥰 his music 😇 I just hate his mother passed… 💔so early in his career, she was truly a huge impact on his life.. and I’m understanding him more with each episode I watch. Coodie was a genius for capturing these inspirational moments.
So glad I got to witness this 😁 after hearing Jamie tell the story for years
Either GO AFTER the life you want or SETTLE for the life you get‼️💯🙌🏼🔝
damn man Jamie Foxx is so damn talented, history in the making right here !
The absolute most respect and a new outlook for this legend. Grinding a long time
always crazy seeing the studio process of a hit
Watchin this gave me chills. Still remember first heard this on the radio and it was thaaaaaa fuckin jam
Kanye is a genius, think he is too talented for this world hence why many don’t get him!
Jamie's voice is butter..
Have you see the move ray?
This tune was one of my first ever records I brought. This video made my day!!!! Respect 👊🏼
FINALLY we get to see Jamie foxxs story come aliveeeee!!!! When I saw this in the documentary for the first time I got so excited because I heard him tell the story soooo many times and loved it!
Been watching this clip over and over and it still makes me so emotional being able to finally this story that’s been told over and over for so many years. Just the best.
I thought I was the only one! I can't stop watching it! It's amazing
cool
I really never expected this documentary to be so great...it's breathtaking really...and iam not eveb thr type of dude to use that kind of language
Love seeing creative minds come together and produce great music
I can’t stop watching this is magical 🔥💕💕
Glad Jamie listened to Kanye 😂
Pharrell's reaction was the highlight for me. I felt that.
Y’all not giving Jamie enough credit! He really did his thing on the hook 🔥🔥🔥
I know wasn’t the only one that got goosebumps watching this documentary 🔥
The fact that coodie sat on this for twenty years...all the awards!
Hate him or love him....there will never be another producer/rapper like the Kanye before his mom past. That Kanye was the absolute GOAT.
It still amazes me that this was all filmed before he became famous, definition of bet on yourself 🔥🔥also need to talk about how talented Jamie is
Probably my favorite part of the whole documentary.
Why hasn’t Jamie made more music. He sings so well,
Blame it t pain
Gold digger
Songs with drake
They are lowkey
He's got like 5 albums that are all pretty damn good and ton of guest appearances. What more you want ?
has entire albums bruh
I miss this Kanye 😢 I will forever remember this song, I was in middle school when this song came out. I’m 32 now. Oh the memories
This is watching GENIUS happen. The track, the verses, the production, the adlib- Jamie comin through with that ooh ohh👌🏽Track is 🔥and a Joy to watch develop
I'm surprised they kept this footage for so long. It's been at least 18-20 years
This song will never get old.
Yeah I dropped a tear on this! EPIC!!! So inspired
The three episodes are incredible, but this first one is phenomenal! As an artist myself, it was very inspirational!!
Captivating! There’s gotta be parts 4,5,6 after this trilogy.
Man this gave me goosebumps…..
this video makes you feel like your in the room making this hit
As soon as the beat drops im grooving my head 🙌
I love his mother , the way she supported him , there was no way he could fail in life. I still remember saying who’s that when I first heard ye on the state property album, I thought he was going to be better than Jay Z
Fell in love with her too. Now i see why Kanye is the way he is and why piece of him will forever be missing 😢
Yeah. She was amazing and has encouraged me to show my kids the same energy no matter that they was to succeed at.
Classic scene for a classic song
Seeing this gave me chills this is amazing footage
One of the best documentaries I've ever seen
