agreed
Lil JoJo I was just thinking thatt!! lol i
God: how much talent do you want Masego: yes
In the backround on the clouds.. Angels were playing on the saxophone
🌹
@@SK-zm2si 🔥
there's talent, but also tons of hard work
haha sooo funny 😐
Damn he can do all that and I can’t even whistle..
Facts
Same
You should see him play the passport... go watch Tadow... the one recorded in the Red Bull Lounge with FKJ. :D
😂 here trying to do tha shit I give up
@@linusporter1091 I saw that one
by far the best open mic in history
this guy has too much musical talent for one human being... rap...sing...play a ton of instruments...then to top it off he produces a whole song star to finish in front of ur eyes
ntwana. this guy s just pure talent
He the habachi chef for music
Thaddeus Major 😂😂
FACTS. Check out Dub Fx he been doing this....
Seen him perform. He really is an alien.
This is so underrated, he created a beat right there, hummed, sung, rapped and played the sax. No auto tune. This is talent
Lets not gloss over the whistle!!! This guy is amazing
now i have the sudden urge to try to autotune a saxophone
@@lilfrontgarden not to be that guy but it’s Saxophone 😂
@@akumulight ok
@@akumulight what is that supposed to mean it takes lung power to play the sax it's not like the piano where everyone plays....not everyone plays the sax soooo I don't get your point 🙄🙄
It’s like watching a flower bloom and embrace it’s beauty.
underrated comment
You nailed it with this comment 🥰
True
His mind is just ridiculous. The way he understands sound?? And then he pulls out the sax and my whole chest crumbles. My favorite artist!
This is a real artist 👩🎨
This song hit me like tadow.
😉
lol
He is the person that makes sound effects and background sound there.. Haha
Exactly what I said. This right here is the New Tadow to me!
this song deserves 100m+ views like Tadow..
Everybody gangsta until he pulls out the sax
I think the sax Makes it a lot more gangsta! No a days people hide behind a cloud of faked funk, he is very talented, hope he gets more buzz to him.
Bruh that's great
The greatest comment hahahaha
sax was the Miami coke kingpin scene's autotune of the 80s..didn't get anymore gangsta than that 🤣🤣
@@keithlgray He was saying everybody else felt like gangsters until Masego pulled out the sax, therefore Masego is the real gangster. Bruh
Masego is a musical genius 😍
I felt this entire song with every fiber of my existence. Not even embarrassed to say that I cried in the first minute of this melody.
You must be embarrassed. This just shows that you don't know good music. How could you cry only in the first minute? I cried for the whole 05:58
@@thatomoacwiemang4040 Wow. Who would’ve thought that a compliment would have a negative response…you thought you were making a splash with your comment huh? Bye!
Lmao
My fiance gets so mad when I hear this. It's like he sees my thought bubble...lol 😆
@@notapplicable4567you appreciate art and effort. You recognize talent
No cap This has to be the most craziest thing i’ve ever hurd Music wise He’s Creating a beat straight from the top Whistling, and Beatboxing to create this master piece This is so underrated ❗️
my ears were blessed
Same here 😭🔥🔥🔥
I think it’s heard
Should really watch Ed Sheerans You Need Me I Dont Need You
watch jacob collier
This platform is called Genius. This is one of the few times the term is apt to the artist.
Absolutely true
Agree
UNDERRATERD COMMENT
Always come back to this lavish lullaby
How many times can I watch this in a row
I bet I’ve broken your record bro
Im sorry i don't remember

The definition of MUSIC. I leave this here to get reminded everynow and then about this masterpiece!!!
MAN. THIS IS MUSIC AT ITS BEST PURE ARTISTRY!!!!!😶🌫
Mans pulled out the sax, no neck strap LOL
Power move
I mean it's an alto sax. Much lighter than the tenor sax
taternuts kelso spoken like a true tenor player. 👌🏻🤙🏼respect.
Yooo
Lol 😂😂😂
this version waaaaaayyyyyyyyy better than original
GummeBear I agree . The loop is better
GummeBear yo you are SO right
That’s facts
true
Faxx
I get chills EVERY time!
Masego I respect you for what you do.. haven't seem this expression of music before. Right on spot your literally create music by yourself. You are so underrated.
No one: Masego: I'll just make a whole song in one sitting (or standing) This is a properly gifted person 😅😅
he already made the song, he just put different music to it.
999 shit🥺
“this jawn lit, shut up” 😂😂
What does this mean?
it means the song is FIRE
@@coollikebeans that*
@@SandstormGT jawn means person place or thing
He said joint lmao, check the captions
I watched this video a week after it dropped it’s been two years and I always come back once every month and listen to this to clear my mind of all thoughts in my opinion this is greatest work of music I’ve ever listened to
😭😭2021 and this still slaps... That beat *Goosebumps*
2022 it still slaps
2022 😭 still listening 👂
Still a bop ìn 2023 ✨️
We should show artists like this to our parents
Showed this to my momma
@Itiel Dos Santos Damn what a beautiful comment it's amazing how I can relate to your statement in soooooooo many syllables, words, sentences and paragraphs that's how it is real it is Lols🤣🤗
P p.
Just did
Sad thing is a lot of our parents can't appreciate real talent like this. If it's not their favorite from their days it's not good. Mine aren't like that but a few friends of mine have complete sheep's as mom's amd dad's
i find this better than the original version
Indeed man!
Like G.Porter when he play “it’s Probably me”...better than the original
Definitely I watched the original and was kinda disappointed 😂
truly it is
Same
“Hold on, let me put my ring on. Cuz it cost a lot, but it don’t fit” fucking MC💯💎
A truly special talent. I think he’s going down as one of the best of all time tbh.
most unique open mic y’all should bring more like this
There isn’t much like him
@@bento3516 it's a shame too
try fkj
@@bento3516 be one
“Hold on lemme put my ring on cause it cost a lot ...and it don’t fit” 🤣
That particular part 😂
Masego is immensely talented as a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentists etc He is definitely one of the better talents of current R&B! He deserves more recognition.
2021 anyone ?☺️
Into eternity 🔊💃🏾
Ye ye cmon
yes sir
Will be better than 2020 for god’s sake
2022 🤘🏾
GOD: What talent would you want? Masego: yes
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice...🤣
🤣🤣 I'm like number" 444 "too on some angelic shii cuz
“Sitting in the car going back home on a nice sunny day when everything in your life is going well” type of music
hope i get there someday
Lol I literally SANG your comment.
@@tigershav Keep a positive mind and the world shall follow
@@CreepaHD easier said then done
@@mirkostipefilipovicmiocicc8670 Only if you believe that
This guy deserves so much more love. Inspiration!
when the remix is better than the original
So he plays all those instruments, sings and raps...at least we got something in common in that we can both whistle.
Can't even whistle 🙃
F
@@captainmaleek8696 saaaaame 😭
Only thing I have in common is breathing
😂
Listening to masego is like taking a fresh breath of air...
This was literally the greatest video I have ever seen and it came out years ago 😭🙌🏽
Innit bruv
I don’t know if I’ve ever loved an artist more than Masego. He’s the full package. He’s starting to creep up on Miguel and Alicia. Absolutely blown away. I know this is old, but it should be shared for the world to see. Such a rare talent. 💎
Masego's live performances are a lot lit than the actual songs I could listen to this all day
Where this guy from?
This would seriously be the coolest job in the fucking world, like hands down. You can just wake up everyday and make what your feeling into a sound, so you get to just vibe all day long and create art like this.. just amazing in my opinion
I would love to have this talent!
@@sidneytownsend700 it's talent yeah, but also a lot of hard work and time invested in this Don't think that just talent can compensate everything else
What a way to put it 👏
@@roxazzino3115 What do you mean? To be a rapper you need talent
@@Samuel-xj4oj yeah? I never agrued with that All i said is to don't think that if u only have talent , everything is going to be like u wanted it to be
It just amazes me how he did all that in a matter of minutes from scratch💯
It's a beautiful thing how music can inspire, touch your soul, and help you find focus in the hardest of times. Big thank you to Masego for the art he shares with all of us.
Masego X Anderson Paak live would be 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It could be interesting i think, but their music styles does not have much in common. :)
FACTS 😍🙏🥂
Firreeeee
Yes🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@lucasfreyjensen3435 yeah I think .Paak's music is a little more boombastic while Masego has a quieter more mellow vibe, might be just me
That saxophone is everything
Yesssss
ERD BURNET I play the saxaphone
Edgar Bustamante ?
That’s FACTS the sax kills it
Timeless
Coming back every now and then cuz this live version is just on another level
SAME LOL
he needs to release this version 😩
I made a version of this :)
Vibez Music Libary nice bro 👍
Yeah he should all i do is listen to this
Can someone make this a 1hr loop??? I need this for my study sessions!
fr
just gonon soundcloud n search it up then loop it there
Use listen on repeat
Honestly much better than the album version Masego a real got with R&B/Soul with the slick jazz as well.
"Forget who your favorite is, I is now". I love anything you do Micah.
Ngl, I was actually digging sound of the spoon dinging the cup and cup bouncing off the table as percussion when we was hitting the drum pad lmao
It went so well with the with the beat ngl
Oh my gosh I thought it was part of the prerecorded sound 😂😂
Til now...
When the sax hits I can’t handle it 🎷 ❤️
Cause it speaks to the soul 🎷😍
Elliott Smith ur my type of human ❤️
🔥🔥🔥
It finds a way to the heart fr🥵❤️
Big pause.
This man's music, talent, presense moves the soul 🙏🏽
Never knew i could be so memorized & serenaded by a song until this version was released. Live version of this song is "Pure Perfection".
After listening to this 50 times I've discovered that rattling sound when he's creating the drums is from the spoon in the cup next to the drum pads. I don't know why i just thought it was the drums.
Hahaha same
It adds another level to it, absolutely beautiful perfomance
the spoon makes it even better though
I would eat my cereal with that spoon
1:53
He just has Soooooo Much talent I love this guy he is real Music 🎶
He literally just has fun with it! So much understanding for sound and so captivating to watch! True talent! 🙌🏻😍
Masego : "Okay, I'll just stand here, and produce a whole song in one standing." 👐🏾
He look like 21 Savage with a good upbringing
Omg it’s so true
If the royal family raised him
fuck from fucking fuck germany fick
😂😂😂 what do u mean by good upbringing
@@miracle1799 he means he’s actually talented instead making garbage just because it sells
I’ve never seen someone so talented wow
this man is INSANE don't know why he's not more popular
Got to love when Masego builds a song in front your eyes.
Finally Genius is doing something right!!
Wdym
Bat Man they got some real talent on here
Who ever gave this a thumbs down is on dust. This guy is amazing!!!
awesome technique, bangin song. it blew my mind when he recorded the vocal background track first and then sang on top of it, the timing of the recording was just spot on. awesome artist, I will follow
I didn’t ask for this song, the song asked for me...
But you were asking for a song right?
That don’t make sense at all
@@clonezy7800 it’s a joke u know that right
@@uriel3031 A joke had to make sense or it's rubbish
this is just pure talent...
This man really meant "I do it all myself I don't need no help"
The piano is so peaceful
Masego is one of those rare artists that doesn’t need instruments to make music. A couple of sounds here and there is all he needs. He truly lives up to the meaning of being an artist. Much love to him.
Valeria M he is using a piano
@@gabydude and a sax haha
When he says “uh shut up” @ 3:35!!! It’s the smoothest thing ever.
This man is just a gift from god the talent and passion he puts into his work is incredible can listen to this so often so relaxing
i love how this is just a different version of the same song but even better. cant get enough of this
Man, this guy is addicted to music Just like us here
@@vadadachakradhar5813 I think everyone here can make music
@@filipecassiano5407 that's true but would it be good music tho?
@@uselessperson7457 for people here? Sure! If we're here we've got a really good taste for music Yeah, sure it would be good music
I think ur underestimating how hard it is to make good music
Randall Johnson it’s not that hard tbh I do it all the time
can he please appear on NPR Music Tiny Desk
maddz r. On god i was bouta say this😩😂
pleassseee
Your wish has been granted yayy
maddz r. Boy have I got news for you
It's there now..good call
THIS NEEDS TO BE ON SPOTIFY RIGHT BLUDCLAAAAART NOW
Like RIGHT BLUDCLAAAAART NOW!
Listening on Lsd and the saxophone is giving me an eargasm
4:17 Just when I think it can't possibly get any more beautiful then it already is ……...
I wish this was on Spotify 😭💔 THIS IS EVERYTHING
Soothes the Soul. Wow keep the vibe flowing.
I didnt know they made musicians like this anymore! I think you are amazing Masego. As a lover of roy Aires ronnie laws etc, I'm so in love with your talent, that smoky sax love it 🥰
This is currently one of the greatest musicians alive 💯🤷 #SleptOn
U know a man is truly talented when they can pick a sax with no neck strap and play without warm up or tuning
bruh on me😭
Why is a neck strap important
@@TheJp2903 saxophones are a lot heavier than they look, also the neck strap helps position the instrument comfortably to play it better
pure talent pure presure. LLLLLOOOOVVVE
2:54 that harmony was my favorite part
I just wish I could see the people's face at genius when he was doing this
ikr😆😆😆
If I was there my face would be 😳😱😳😱😳 the whole time
I miss this.. at the small intimate gigs that I use to attend before covid ... looking at someone who is lost in music or suprised.. and you know you have your tribe around
He had to tell them when the song was over and when to clap looool
"we don't know when it's done!" "y'all ridiculous" lmao
This is the best performance on genius period.
You all are right, this is truly a masterpiece. When I listen it takes me to another place.
