Nothing like a brotha

And nothing more beautiful and regal as the Black woman....thank you queen.

After listening to this song and looking at these pictures makes me think and truly realize that Black is beautiful

So many times you tried to cut we
you wanna tear we down but you
can't touch we
We ain't invincible
but Lord knows we're beautiful and
blessed
check the affirmative
(oh yes)

Brotha don't let nobody hold you
back no no no
Don't let nobody
hold ja , control ya or mold ja
Brotha don't let nobody hold you
back

Am I my brother's keeper?
Yes I am!

@jaysax90 Get out of my life woman - Joe Williams with Thad Jones & The Mel Lewis Orchestra

The strongest black man is a man with knowledge and wisdom.

@jaysax90 it's from an old Blue Note record - Get Out My Life by Joe Williams with Thad Jones and Mel Lewis.Check out Questlove's Droppin Science album for a load of these records. Peace x

@jaysax90 It's also in Jamie Cullum's song "Get your way", funny how musicians copy ideas from eachother :-)

@jaysax90 It's from "Get Out of My Life" by Joe Williams and the Jazz Orchestra

wow thanks for taking the time to put this video together. matches the song perfectly!

This song is much needed and nice. Thank you so much for uploading it.

I stay rooted in the church. I play the drums. Even through all this im trying to start an outreach organization in my church.... only 4 ppl showed upfor the initial meeting. The councilman saw my proposal and said he wanted to speak to me. but 4 ppl is not gonna look too good on an executive summary. Im in pittsburgh I know we dont get support. but i know my history and thats what keeps me strong, vigilant, and poised

Morgan State. Now am at a community college. all I want to do is continue his legacy I organized trips to pay bills jitneyed on the side. and Ive been under estimated and overlooked in the corporate world. I was laid off 3 times in two years. and fired from a job I couldnt get to b/c my car broke down. Im 26 with goals and like an alien. I could use some uplift cause im getting so tired of tragedy.

yeah um Ive been trying to put a new business in a building my late father (CEO of a 25yr old company)left. and the adversities come from my own ppl in the community. stealing pipes breaking doors windows poisoned a gaurd dog... they cut wires off my electronics. police dont do anything but show up after. I had to argue with a detective to take a blood sample where they bled. lost a 12yo brother. An HBCU dropped a loan and i had a 3.5gpa.

Phenomenal job!!!

Cos slavery isn't over. Our bodies may be free but we still have to get our black mind back. From thinking that whatever the man does and owns (yes, that includes his woman, his religion his good hair) is supposedly what's best for us.

Isn't that piano riff a sample from something? I think I've heard it in a Jamie Cullum song before. Any ideas/

Jovan Quallo I think you mean in his song “Get Your Way” by Jamie Cullum

ill street blues

Sometimes, I believe the people who dislike a good song do it just to be ignorant. -smh- Do they feel powerful afterward? This song has SO much meaning, and the art is beautiful, btw. Love Jill Scott.

I am in love with the photos and the song!!! They go hand and hand.

simply amazing...

The only person who couldn't handle this video wasn't a brotha.

Brothas itinually staying strong all ova and making it do what it do all di weh and I'm one who inlimitedly does that and more iniversally.Jill Scott alwayz zings with di tones and vibrations of her music I love a lot with apreicloving lessons to be true to di craft.

The piano part is a sample from Jamie Cullum's "Get Your Way"

Im really into his type of art and ive seen some in ur vid but some i havent..they are really nic nice video for the song..love this song! Thanks!
