What comes from the spirit reaches the spirit.....
Say that again! Those who understand, innerstand!!!
Well said brotha
amen

This is one of the greatest things I've ever heard in my life. I cannot fathom that a human actually came up with this.
Which species could have been responsible, if not human?
@@miguelbranquinho7235 who said it had to be a species?
@@DonnyZofChaos What else lives, if not a species?
@@miguelbranquinho7235 again, you're assuming the only possible candidate has to be a species. You're trying to be a nitpicking ned and failing miserably. Please stop
@@DonnyZofChaos Stop what? What are you raving about? The only species that make music, that we know of, are humans. I asked what others do you know that could have done the same. Of course it has to be a living species, because inorganic matter doesn't really do much, now does it? It's either a living thing, or it's not. You said you cannot fathom how a human could have written something like this. And I told you there are no other candidates for the task.
After listening to this album, I felt as though I just finished reading a really really good novel! This man could single-handedly change the face of jazz music!
This song sounds like a beautiful prayer to me...a “cry out to God” prayer. The way it builds up is absolutely amazing. I always lose it at 7:37 🙌🏽.
WOW!!!! I can see Myles, Thelonious, and Charlie (Bird) Parker in heaven bumping and high-fiving to this!!!!! This is how Jazz was meant to sound!!!! More than impressive Mr. Kamasi... more than impressive! Well played sir... VERY well played!
I would add Sun Ra, Paharaoh Sanders, even Joshua Redman to the list
do. not. sleep. on. the. alice. coltrane. up. in. here. hear?
OK... I feel ya
Just when you thought Jazz was dead...
& Coltrane as well
man... this stuff is as good as Miles or Coltrane. Does that sound crazy?
absolutely not Sir... there is hope for the future
totally agreed! this is fantastic.
It's like his saxophone is screaming, so fucking intense!
Lucas Mota obviously, his perfect color is OH MY GOD Bitch!!!!
Joan Saag Mom, WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED??!
+Lucas Mota better check his pockets for the powers that b!
this is the sound of axel rose in a blender and Slash on satans fenders.
MC Ride is in the choir vocals
multiphonics
This album is so ambitious and mesmerizing, to compile nearly three hours of music into a triple album for his debut? While Robert Glaspers Black Radio pushed jazz further, Kamasi has shoved it over the hill? Had the honor of watching him at the blue note and briefly meeting him after. One of the greatest living musicians and this is ONLY album one
Keeping Black music alive
well said lv 1.... that point cant b argued..
This is reminiscent of early 1970's Pharoah Sanders with Lonnie Listen Smith, Joe Bonner, et. al. I especially like the background voices. Nicely done.
+Stanley Pollack I was thinking exactly the same here !
Yes, a background chorus, but know that he studied ethnomusicology. It makes a difference.
this song is intensely beautiful. ive listened to it like five times in the past two days
This almost brings tears to my eyes. Absolutely beautiful.
At 4:33 ... I know that the purpose of this song is totally different from what I feel at this very moment, I know that the meaning for "love" that this song tries to express serves to another meaning, but, I have to say, I am surrended, no matter how much weight to take life forward force me to give up, in this small moment that I quoted, I gain breath, and I realize that I need to continue, why? Why ... it's like this, this is LIFE, this is living, in that small moment, I realize that I reach a limit, then I stop, I gain breath and I see that I have the strength to continue facing whatever challenge is ahead, a breath that I was waiting and gives me POWER to keep gowing and not give up, this is something that only music, that little moment in time like this can provide me, I cant express this feeling literally, I can only tell you that this is powerfull enough to keep me STRONG, and makes me LUCID, AWAKENED, and ALERT to the LIFE, this forces me to understand that the best of EVERYTHING is yet to come.
People, there is no formula, there is no secret or recipe to be full and complete, just look at yourselves and understand that EVERYTHING you ALL need is already there with you, just listen to yourself and you will be well. "Askim" for LIFE. Greetings from a friend from somewhere.
magnificent
.
Thank You
Be blessed
We are God.
My goodness, the raw emotion that builds up in this song is nothing short of amazing!
Excellent work from this young talent - jazz is not meant to be background music, it's meant to uplift and inspire, and this
album does just that! A great vision brought to fruition in this "Epic" new recording. Glad it's on vinyl - will be my next purchase. Big thumbs up!
+Chris Velour you will not be disappointed with the vinyl. It plays a bit quiet but it's worth it to have such an immense album like this in such a nice package.
+Chris Velour In my humble opinion, its best on its own but it worked really well on Kendrick Lamars To Pimp A Butterfly, with screaming sax solos and electric bass solos from Thundercat playing behind kendricks rap
Best jazz I heard in quite a while!
Thank god for you Kamasi.
"Askim" tru da muzic. Spiritual Ascension. Beyond Star Treck Jazz. Thanks KamaSee & Hear!
THE WAY KAMASI STARTED HIS SOLO WAS SO SWEET
This is love, pure love.
yes. a love song. as in the participants love the music enough not to half-step at all; to give it...alll
This is some of the greatest jazz I've heard in a while; every few minutes is an explosion of flavor!
fuck man, i gotta go practice
+kfdisawesome every jubda nysuc dies this shit to me with guitar XD i like FUCK GOTTA PRACTICE
Ahahahahahahahahahaha
Stephen Bruner - wow, amazing bassist. Reminds me of Wes Montgomery a little bit, though he was a guitarist. Every musician in these songs have been amazing. This music is amazing and IT'S NEW, as a huge fan of Coltrane, Sanders, Brotzmann, Sun Ra, and any and all avante garde jazz musicians, it makes me so so so happy to know that someone is carrying on this music and mindset in such a well done way. I have a new favorite Jazz Musician.
Man, one of greatest finds since the Pyramids! Beau
caught kamasi in northampton, ma back in late august. one of the best shows i have ever seen. this was among the songs played that evening.
Was amazed by the bass. Went to google who Stepehen Bruner was. I should´ve knowm... Damn kid is too good.
the drums in this song tickle my soul
Scorching. I cannot stop listening to this music!
Absolute genius, this sends shivers down my spine. I've been so sad that all my favorite musicians have passed away before I was born. I must meet this man!
One of The Best Songs I've heard in Years!!! (Wow)
#Epic4Sure
One of the most powerful pieces of music I've heard in years. WOW!!!!!! For pure intensity, there's nothing like it. Epic indeed!
Amen Kamasi
So, I've just found this, my life will never be the same.
Got me too
This brings me so much joy that y'all feel the same way. This truly touched our souls! I think everyone would want to hear this as they transcend to the next realm.
Just saw you are coming to Detroit to the Michigan Theater. On that day, I have a GIG myself. But I just engulfed my EARS in your glorious sound. SO I thank you for blessing us with this classic sound ! ! !
This whole LP is so brilliant! I love it... Wow
This song and a few others makes me suspect that I should spend loads of more time hanging around jazz. The choir is like the background sound of the universe. A top-100 song on my chart
I've only been listening to jazz since 2019 and I'm 50. I feel like I still have alot of catching up to do.
One of L.A’s great young musicians! Hopefully this Covid-19 B.S will subside and we can get back to our live musical concerts!
Listening to this was the perfect way to start my rainy, warm, spring Friday morning! Thank you Kamasi and Brainfeeder!
Just started listening to the album a week ago, and, so far, this is my favorite track. Utterly fantastic.
It's hard to put into words the emotions this song makes well up in you. So I'll leave it at that.
Awesome. I love when creativity and music combine !!!
kamasi and his band's use of drum and guitsr, it is so genius, so beautiful and so well used.
My buddy put me up on this song bless Rick he always put me on the great music 💯
There is absolutely nothing that can top this .... I love this!!!!!
There’s still nothing even a year later
This is beautiful. Calmed me right down !
one of my favs off this album
This is love
Thank you for this amazing soulful love song! Greetings from Turkey!😊

Pharoah-like screeching... Good.
Kamasi Washington music reminds of the Psycadelic R&B/Soul Music produced by the great Charles Stepney for Rotary Connection, Ramsey Lewis, Minnie Riperton & EW&F.......

Thundercat for the win.
I thought that might be him but I was close to looking up which modern jazz guitar player was ripping this a new one!
So godly!
ASKIMSIN 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
OH SHIT. YES.
Could someone please make a movie out of this music? Absfucamazing!
Not every magnificent musical masterpiece needs a visual. Some things are meant for you to create the visuals with your own minds eye. Don't worry about the ones who miss out for superficial reasons; let the medicine work on the ones worthy of it, I say ;)
@@rtoriq Like reading a good book does not needs a movie. Do agree. His music reminds me film scores, :D
1:57 that bass!
tears
Crazy.. nice!!👑🎷❤
il nuovo Charles Mingus? e' stratosferico quest artista......IMMENSO
So much yes
YES!
Gotta love that riffing
My wake up and go song.

Top tier
