An amazing performance truly

This right here. This just shows his ability to give a full performance with the bare minimum. No fancy lights, no fancy voice modulations, no backup dancers. Just his writing/rapping, crisp vocals behind him, and a simple but catchy backing track. RIP Coolio. ❤
Absolutely- clean/ clear/ cosmic 🌿🌎🌏🌍🌿
Tbh it almost feels like a lip sync
@@MichelLinschoten no way, it's sounds a lot different from the recording
The parts except the verses are all lip synced
@@aaronking1682 how can you tell?
Talents like this is rare. No autotune. No effects from software. Pure talent.
Этот талант должен работать на хлопковой плантации !
everybody always talkin bout coolio i never see people talking about L.V.'s voice. beautiful.
L.V. does have a beautiful voice. His vocals ad so much.
Man shows some soul.
I just hate that he is using a backing track here.
@@BronchoKyle what? u mean the choir behind him making the usual sounds the track would actually make. if u listen the track isnt playing him singing. just the music
100% one of the most iconic performances of one of the most iconic songs ever. RIP man. Taken too soon.
Xavier in house😂😂😂
Hello Xavier bhaiya 👀
hello Xavier Love From Brasil!!
Way too soon.❤
Omg.. This is the best comment you did bro
The chorus has to be one of the most powerful that ever been made in entire music industry, straight goosebumps! Rest well Coolio!
It's a Stevie wonder song. It's fantastic. But this really brings it to life.
LV Baby! 🤷♂
This is actually a voicing of the infamous Mellotron
And the guy singing the hook did a wonderful job
@@joedutkiewicz1187 what does it mean the hook
Whenever I think of old school rap, this very song is the first one that comes to mind. RIP Coolio & thank you for this classic!
LV had an amazing voice. I hope he had more big songs in his career. Dude can sing.
A lot of younger kids may not understand the impact this song had. On top of this being a huge hit, it carried a strong message. Sad that he's gone, but Coolio will always be remembered in Hip Hop.
He was the father that I never had. Only that he was in the kitchen and I was making lies for him to sign my pink slip for the next day of school. Hahaha
I found out he passed away only after reading this comment. Damn.
How can they understand? they're just kids.
What’s a pink slip
@@dwaynedibley997 when you get in trouble in elementary. They would send you with a pink slip to have your parents sign to know that you got in trouble that day.
This is what rappers today should aspire to be like. No auto tune, just pure talent.
Today's rappers = auto tune.
Rappers today can’t even rap without auto tune and most of them are mumble raps.
And no abusive words
@@smugwiseCoolio does swear in some of his songs.
@@olegoks6259 ikr but not in this one, which makes it a masterpiece.
This performance is timeless
this song ALWAYS gives me goosebumps. such a timeless masterpiece with such a strong message.
" Tell me why are we so blind to see, that the one's we hurt are you and me "..... This line hits different... Everytime right in the feels.. Rip coolio.
A wonderful line
"Tell me why are we so blind to see" alson him using glasses
Yes!!! Why are we hurting one another???
the end. . . "aint no gangsters living in paradise". . . now that's saying something
Rest in Heaven Coolio! ❤️🙏🏾
The power of the vocal sound of L.V. always impressed me.
Me too
What a voice ❤
Really, L.V sang the chorus with so much intense
Me too
Powerful voice❤
Anybody listen 2024❤️?
Ohh man , brazil ❤
Hola buenos días desde Argentina 🇦🇷. Yo estoy escuchando hoy, 04/05/2024. Saludos cordiales.
Так 2024
Привет из Казахстана!
Me
2024 this song still💯💯💯💯
Love the fact that Coolie is very much naturally willing to share the stage. He step aside when LV sings, stay in the side and even pointing to the singing choir.
He had respect
Pura verdade 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Gentleman. RIP
notice he introduced the choir and LV first before starting .. cool as hell
He even sits down after his last verse for a while and works off of LV (with a little distance-based shuffle dance, for lack of a better phrase) while rapping.
I gotta say, this is probably one of the best songs in the world. What an amazing song that Coolio made. Rest in Peace Coolio
Not in the world 😂
@@goodburger1114read to understand 😂
@@goodburger1114what's the best song in the world? In your opinion
rip coolio
One of the best songs in the world? LOL. Clearly you think Rap and Hip Hop are the only types of music out there.
2:58 that look in his eye. He was a crazy man. Crazy about his art. Crazy about his delivery. Crazy about his passion for music.
Отбиваясь по сей день
This track is one of the reasons I switched to rap music. Back in '99 I was just a 15-yo brat who listened all kinds of shit but nothing really hit me like the first touches of good ol' rap 💪😎 There was no turning back after that and I'm still banging the old shit while closing 40. Rap is forever!
one of the best live performances i’ve ever seen in my entire life. absolutely incredible.
fur reel MT
Yep, they took the track all the way to a work of art, with the production here. It's flawless, for what it is.
Lo cantan igual que en el vídeo oficial hasta creo que incluso es mejor que en la grabación
They're lip-syncing though 😂
this. its just incredible.
Just watched this in July 2023 and It's still one of the best live on are performances I've ever seen.
agreed!
it always be
Well... live but lypsinc And probably wasnt even live but pre-recorded Amazing anyways but... it is what it is
Yup yup
september actually
Спасибо тебе Кулио за эту прекрасную песню, покойся с миром!!! Спасибо LV за душевное исполнение
Top shelf. All the more chilling with kids doing the backing vocals. Never gets old.
“Tell me why are we so blind to see that the ones we hurt are you and me”🎤best line R.I.P Coolio
People forget that the song itself was a decent hit for Stevie Wonder in the 70s but Coolio's performance and new title & lyrics made it a MONSTER hit. RIP Coolio.
what song is that
@@spartanthorn4784 Pastime Paradise
People don't forget that. They never knew.
Never ever heard of it until now thanks!
@@tobenamed9424 ❤️❤️
BEAUTIFUL
Love this song so much
This is a masterpiece. On so many levels. The quality of the lyrical content, the story he is telling, the message, and all being delivered with such heart and conviction. The dynamism between the rap, singing, and the choir is magic. All wrapped up with an incredible and ingenious sample from one of the best musicians the world has ever seen. An absolute master work.
Best comment .. so true!!
When you understand the content in the music you will understand the music
@@theresajames1773 what does that even mean?
@@theresajames1773 this sentence doesn't have any meaning
@@theresajames1773 im 14 and this is deep
The way Coolio fell to his knees and LV rests his hand upon Coolio's shoulders... Absolutely Legendary!
Just brilliant. And that is the coolest choir I've ever seen. Perfect.
“Coolio” marcó un parteaguas en la escena musical . El es , fue y seguirá siendo un absoluto Crack !!!
this is insane,they all sound live exactly like they sound in the studio...RIP to the legend Coolio!!
was gonna say, the vocal performance was perfect. bravo! how did he even come up with this triple combo? it's so well done.
Coolio will be the legend of rappers
@@Vtsrlон уже стал. покойся с миром Coolio
Because they are in playback?
Believe it or not, all musicians used to have real talent. I know it’s hard to believe today.
RIP Coolio. I'm not a hip hop dude but this song - the dynamic - the beautiful chorus vocals and the hard hitting verse lyrics. Banger.
and Melody
I bet the choir in Heaven sang like this
That statement sums it up This Granny adored Coolio Jenny Guernsey 🇬🇬 ♥
Same here, RIP Coolio
It is not hiphop
AMAZING VOICE
Beautiful voices ahhh
Damn. What a performance. Late Night was so underground.
@@yourturn777 I would listen to Wolfman Jack when my older brother would be listening to him. Are we showing our ages? 😜
This performance is canned (fake). The “New York Boys Choir” doesn’t exist. Plus you can tell they’re faking it
LEGEND NEVER DIE
The vibe, the outfits, the guys
Im crying like i’m a proud mom ! Those boys were amazing !!!! Amazing kids beautiful voices ! RIP
I agree.
just as ı was crying listenning to this
This has to be the best live performance of this song...is amazing.
Those kids are totally faking it. Non are harmonious and non are sync.
No. The performance in 1995 with Stevie wonder with them is way better.
Best live performance of this song was at Howard Stern's Show...
This is 100% lip-synch, but nevertheless a great song
@qacdata This author just proved a scientific theory of subjectivity. 🤣❤️🤣
Such a powerful beautiful song. ❤
Woow this song never old . I listing to it since 96
No slurs.. clean rap.. thats The Legend over there. 🙏
You can thank Stevie Wonder for the clean lyrics.
Actually Coolio wrote the lyrics with curse words but Stevie wonder refused to give rights of music tracks & asked Coolio to write a version with no curse words
@@2007boys is the version with curse words leaked or nah?
Their voices gives me the chills , and what a performer
His simplicity ❤
1:11 masterpiece 🔥
😁
The choir kicking in gives me chills every time GOD I love live music
I ❤ this song ❣️

Gran interpretación y actitud de Coolio y equipo, de las mejores, que bárbaro, muy excelente.

@@SomeoneHuman they did that a lot in 90’s music don’t trip 😂
thats golden age of song
It blows my mind how this live performance sounds exactly like the recorded version of the song. Fuckin props to Coolio
It’s one of the best ever!!
@@juliansandler4569lol
it is not lol @@juliansandler4569
@@juliansandler4569no you can hear the difference in the way he’s singing it. L.V. Doesn’t sing a pitch up in the last “you and me” in the recorded version.
@@juliansandler4569the only added tracks are the harmonies on the chorus vocalist
Wonderful performence ❤
Just discovered this song. ❤
I saw Coolio on a talkshow some years back and seen he had a advocate group that helped fathers get visitations to their children, from there I looked into his music and became a fan instantly, seemed like a true man, Rip Coolio.
So what happened after? Why did you give up? He had sooo many years ahead of him. Him and his New York Choir boyz were to take over the world mate!
@@daixer3156 You can only last so long in the music industry. No one during Coolio´s time is still at the top.
Wow! I didn’t know that about him. As an adult victim of parental alienation, I know how important that is. Respect.
@@jasonito23 cept maybe Eminem, but he was more 2000's
Eminem is not still topping charts with hits. Look up the top 25 hip hop songs of 2022. Eminem is not on that list.
The is one of the best live performances I've ever seen on a talkshow.
Anywhere, not just a shitty late night show.
@@hxhdfjifzirstc894 The "shitty" late night show is probably the only king of late night after Letterman... Don't be disrespecting just because you're ignorant.
I don't think any of us will see one better in our lifetimes.
Pitty they were lip syncing
The bass at the background 😈🔥
My favorite songs
I am mostly into rock and heavy metal but every time I hear this song, I get goosebumps. Such a powerful message, lyrically brilliant 👏 . Rest easy, taken too soon. D.
Same here brother..He is and will always be a LEGEND.
Same. I mostly like punk, rock, or metal. Or pop from decades ago. This song is badass. It doesn't have that usual negative low vibrations from heavy hc gangster rap that makes you feel uncomfortable and awkward.
Same here
You do know that the original lyrics of the chorus was written by Stevie Wonder in his 1976 hit, "Part-time paradise"?
@@Srikstar I do indeed sir, another talented musician 👍
The way L.V. moves at 2:22 is so satisfying
Yeah... he got the swag
Fr🔥🔥🔥
02:19 esse peido rs
One of the best songs ever written. Just works on every level. Still sounds fresh in 2024. RIP Coolio.
INCREIBLE
No autotune... No lipsync... Pure fvckin talent 💯
Le dice quita a Eminem
If you really think that’s all live with zero effects,you have a lot to learn.
@@sarcasticallyrearranged did i say zero effects.? Before i learn a lot, you must also learn 1st reading comprehension 😉
@@sarcasticallyrearrangedvc é apenas um sapo no fundo do poço cala a boca
But there was lipsync... and there was auto-tune And wasnt even live but pre-recorded Amazing anyways, gave me chills
RIP Coolio 🙏 Such a talent, back when hip hop was in its prime. These so called rap artists from the new generation can never touch this.
At least he made it to see 20-foe!
When did he die??
@@lesegomabiletsa6458 Se fué el 28 Sep.
👍 They could "NEVA!!"
Unfortunately at 28 September 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
goosebumps. just pure goosebumps. Rest in peace Mr Coolio
This will never get old
What an incredibly unique and iconic song. A lot of rap out there just sounds like everything else, but this just stood out
It's an adaptation of a Stevie Wonder song - Pasttime paradise. This is a much better version tho
You're right matey! It sounded like Paradise or just Pair of dice 🎲 🎲
💯💯💯🙌🏾
Негры красавцы я вас уважаю
What a performance. I got chills
Saaaame.
Same here
Yeah better than the singers who use auto tunes like Taylor Swift, Beyonce whose fans are comparing these wh**es with Lionel Messi and Christiano Ronaldo and even think that they are greater than the legends like Aerosmith, Coolio.
I love this song ❤❤
Powerful and beautiful
I'm not a rap fan, but always felt moved by this song. RIP Coolio 🖤🇵🇷
🇵🇷✌️💪 RIP
Same here.
Same here brother
@@JooshWii ...Sister 🙌
That's what real music can do, doesnt matter what genre
Masterpiece! Love LV’s voice, the New York Boy’s chorus and the rich harmonies they produced! And Coolio’s performance was amazing, the lyrics were passionate and meaningful! Thank you Coolio and RIP 🕊💜
most rap beats are made of samples so your comment is just stupid
Lol LV is lip synching.
@@billsutherland3935 No, he is actually singing over the top of a prerecorded vocal. Same with the choir.
@@wondrousmindtrick8450 yeah maybe. But his singing is very, very, very low in the mix.
@@billsutherland3935 yes cuz they edit his voice And 8 times so it becomes different but L.V’s sound is great hé a good singel at that time they didn’t they did not have autotune so they used layering if thats what u call it I think
Wow! Amazing ...it sounds just the same as recorded...left this world so soon ...RIP
Foi o gênio, fica a obra. Descanse em paz, Coolio!
I'm in Ireland, not a rap fan, but have always loved this song. Coolio came across as a genuine good guy too. Thanks for the great song Coolio and I hope you'll enjoy rapping with the angels. RIP. 💚🙏☘
1:22 Even the cameraman was shocked to see an Indian in a supposed to be all-black group. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am Indian and I am shocked seeing him there
Who's it?
@@vanarqwq3660ele disse indígena. E não indiano amigo. 😂
I listen to this song every day
My Fave from Coolio!! RIP. Great live performance. The lyrics are pure gold and should be inspirational!!
Legendary songs never die!
Right bro
❤❤❤
Amén
This song still gives chills! RIP Coolio
Rest in Peace Coolio.. L.V deserves more attention. This song is the only song that I can never be bored of. I know many types of songs of all kinds, but this one is really something different, it's the only song that will never go out of my mind!
This song actually spoke against the gangster lifestyle. RIP Coolio.
Me and your mom live the gangster lifestyle
Na na this song was saying both Coolio was speaking for the gang culture like how conditions made people join it and then it was impossible to escape At the other hand LV was speaking against it in his parts These types of songs always get me Overall yes, this song was speaking against gang culture but it had a lot more to say
and it's still so man.. she hasn't changed yet
Best song iv ever heard
RIP Coolio!!!!!! Pure talent, pure words of wisdom
Coolio went to Gangstas Paradise 😇
2:47 goosebumps 😍😍
Este es un TEMAZO, es tan increible como te hace sentir, es magico. El coro es espectagualr.
Beautiful ❤
No autotune , just pure talent 👏. RIP legend

RIP Coolio. I know I'm an old lady, but before my dtr died, we'd sing this together blasting in the car. Maybe she knew....💕 masterpiece. AP forever 29
Sorry 4ur lost may she RIp❤️
We are glad you are still here even if we never met. These songs bring back lost memories its something each of us here share.
I am so incredibly sorry for your loss I can’t even begin to imagine the pain and suffering of you have been through. I’m here if you ever need to talk
Sorry for your loss
@@samanthasmith4038 thank you it's been an incredibly hard road. At 29 with a little girl left behind she had so much left to live for
master piece
What an incredible love performance!
No Autotune No Mumbling just 100% Gangsta
Pure paradise
This song is such a masterpiece and a very powerful message. RIP, Coolio! 💔❤🙏🏻
yeah but we should know more Coolio songs besides this one
My favourite song ❤❤
Wow what a performance makes me emotional
Cooli is GOAT ... Legend in rapp , simple human with no show off .what a amazing person... Can't express in words... 💯 True legend
The backup vocals didn’t know they were going to be immortalized next to one of the greatest
I think they had some idea..😅
Humans (specially talented ones) can recognize greatness. The kids on the back vocals knew this performance was gonna be one of the greatest
My eyes teared up from the first drop. Amazing
Thats fantastic
This song is a masterpiece that has withstood the test of time. This song still sounds as good today as the first time that I heard it, and I am convinced that it will sound just as good fifty years from now. This song was sung with such passion that one could not help but to be captivated from the very first note.
