Brandy, Queen Latifah, MC Lyte 6 Yo-Yo - I Wanna Be Down (Live at Essence Music Festival 2018)

[@tam9856]

Queen Latifah NEVER got too big or too Hollywood to remember her hip hop roots. Still a legendary lyricist.

[@JimmySam.]

Definitely 🙌🙌🙌

[@ericballard4217]

Right 👍👍👍

[@michellemcgee2099]

YESSSSSS THE QUEEN 👑 IS STILL THE SAME....THESE LADIES ROCK...PEACE AND BLESSINGS FAM

[@cjp43]

Yes and just stunningly beautiful inside and out

[@MsDreamscaper]

She is very talented. A great actress as well as a talented singer and rapper. I liked the Dana Owens album when she sang in a jazzy style.

[@joyajackson1724]

Their generation of female rappers is legendary!!! They were classy, feminine, and a still a little raw without putting it all out there. Legends!!!!

[@akaveani]

Well said !

[@Datsmyfavsong]

Facts ❤

[@bosslady7611]

Love the way Queen Latifah keeps the crowd hyped up!!! 4 living legends on the stage....they could teach the female rappers of today a thing or two about class, style, sisterhood, and the delivery of bars. They didn't fight about who was on top, and they weren't beefing about who should be crowned the queen of rap. They respected and supported each other. They didn't have ghostwriters....just real, raw, uncut talent. They knew how to step back and let each sister shine in their moment. They showed more class than ass, and that's what being a queen is all about.

[@traceymarie593]

PREACH!!!!

[@m.layfette6249]

It blows my mind how many generations that Don't even have a clue bout the MASTER CLASS on that stage.

[@vanessajackson1307]

And that's the way it should be holding each other down, not trying to show out on one another. That's supreme class is what those ladies bought to the stage every time not pot shots at each other. Class

[@ehrren7228]

It's beautiful how they lift one another up

[@MrsRayford16]

Yeah she acting like it's her song😅

[@sharonpope1737]

I never get tired of seeing these beautiful women perform this song

[@lashundavis156]

Me either

[@shamondavis406]

Sharon Pope I strongly agree with you🥰

[@MsDreamscaper]

❤❤❤

[@rupertafrancis206]

Brandy got that distinguished voice, MC Lyte no mistaking her voice, YoYo always with the play and Queen ... the lyricist

[@MsHill79]

Brandy didn't know what this song was gonna do for all of them 20 years later.... They're keeping each other going with this hit 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@brandonwilliamson2465]

I do not care how many times and how many different performances I watch, these ladies give something different but the energy is the same!!!

[@tawanaharris7032]

When they were younger and did this, who remembers? They killed it then and now they slaaaayyyyed💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@nomorecrocs]

you literally have my whole name wtf!!!

[@toniehall4011]

I remember as if it was yesterday!!!

[@shannondbrown1552]

I will never get tired of this song. The perfect 3 positive rap Queens who supported each other on and off the stage. This is how it’s suppose to be, One Love, no beef and disrespect. Grow up and act like real Queens!

[@a.h.9679]

Lyte looks damn good. Just realized I miss her.

[@sabrinafrazier8400]

They still have it after all these Years🔥

[@ceecee366]

They still got it! Yo-yo with her classic hip thrusts dance move never gets old. Classy group of women…when rappers told stories. 🎶🎤

[@dvd6479]

Where's Da Boss

[@sophiacarter3177]

I would love to see a versus with Lyte and Queen.

[@nickycarter6867]

[@2KILLAVILLE]

Queen La Verse was the best imo! Especially her opening lines! All killed it tho

[@beeaware3621]

[@nomorecrocs]

i wish queen would drop another album after all these years-shit would be fire!!!

[@KansasCityPrince1]

I think it's also time for Brandy and Queen Latifah to do another Collabo

[@sweetestthang4965]

They killed it 🔥 and they all look amazing. Boy, do I really miss listening to what I would consider to be REAL HipHop & R&B MUSIC...🔥 GREAT JOB LADIES!!!! 👍😄❤️

[@tiffanypowell7584]

So classical. Legendary ladies

[@PrecociousFriand]

You mean classic. Classical music is something entirely different.

[@stephanieunique1091]

I love how they are always so modest and fully dressed. Such awesome beautiful women. The new age woman rappers can never!😩

[@sonyadrake7843]

Talented, Ageless, Natural Beautiful 👸🏾👑

[@andreadunbar4617]

True legends. These current female rappers don't know nothing about sisterhood like this.

[@michelleburkes2535]

Old school still sounds amazing.

[@moniqueuu8777]

For sure! Lyrics today are NOT going to be able to be sung, understood or felt like this 20 years later.

[@Oscar-u4n6r]

Такие только в одном экземпляре, таких больше не будет, легенды Хип Хопа

[@kulahgordonlove7030]

CLASSIC!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥Brandy did an amazing job putting 3 icons on this remix.

[@sherrymickey8101]

They all look so good!

[@chandrawills8177]

They kill it every time they perform this song!💜🎼🎤🙏🏾🙌🏾🥰

[@msladylibra8373]

Kudos to ALL the Ladies they have been performing this song together since the 90's and I never get tired of each and every performance ❤🎼🎶🎵

[@SameOlHim]

Never seen this, but I’m glad I just did! ♥️ B R A N D Y ♥️

[@palomastainless1702]

This song is a classic! Ever Green! Fantastically done by four queens.

[@thegoldenbowl5217]

All legends on one stage that's crazy

[@johnlyndsay]

Man, they slept on yo-yo. Don’t get me wrong I know she had a good career but she should’ve had a bomb ass career. She is the truth… I love you Brandy

[@posterboy815]

Yo-yo gave it to me. She was ready. Yasssss.

[@prettyhandsomegang5227]

Queen intro always gets me going lol

[@micheleotero1516]

The queen my girl 💕💕💕💕💕

[@robbinshamburger5065]

Queen, lyte, and Yo Yo they did this💞💞when I hear queens part 💞💞

[@danis.8620]

Oh my queen... Up there looking like a.... GODDESS! She is one of a kind!

[@MsSavagechef]

The Queen will never lose her crown. It is great to see her sharing the stage with other talents, and Ms. Latifah, your lovely kimono-robe looks fabulous on your gorgeous self. I want one just like it, except perhaps in purple. I cannot believe that I do not have a single one of your recordings. I believe that I may have witnessed your first network tv appearance, on In Living Color. I knew I was looking at a true star. What a voice! Totally bowled over, I was.

[@chenieves8976]

YOYO. I NEED YOU IN BROOKLYN. JESUS. 1🎉❤

[@shanieceutsey7228]

ALL of these ladies are beautiful and talented.

[@jaybee4307]

This is hands down one of the best remixes ever. 90s/2000s were all about the remix, but this is #1.

[@staffordnelson9053]

Protect these women! Musical treasure

[@leepo007]

The Lyte still nothing but 🔥 and still my favorite MC can't be touched❤

[@kathy6015]

Beautiful Black Women! Legends!!

[@Tee-kk6tj]

Mc Lyte is soo dang on fly!! Queen is a dope a** hype woman!!! Love to see it!!

[@lastonewon]

Brandy doesn't seem to age its weird😂

[@PrecociousFriand]

Black don't crack, but also - celebrities don't have special genes, they just have more resources.

[@CuriousCat777]

Maybe because she’s still youngish

[@lastonewon]

@@CuriousCat777 yea she's in her 40s so she's not old, but my point it more that she's still looks like she did nearly 30 years ago

[@moniqueuu8777]

They all look the same as they did back then.

[@drphot6050]

No it's not

[@CatB1PYT]

I woke up wanting to move…These funky Divas did it! I gotta do YoYo’s little dance too! Hail to these flyyyy 👸🏽 Queens.

[@otisfreeman5146]

[@libabygurl8879]

I love love love me some MC LYTE FROM DAY 1 WHAT!!!

[@DreImmanuel]

This band 🔥🔥🔥

[@workingmomma5626]

Ditto on all the comments… these women are what legends and role models were created from. They do know how to entertain, and connect with their audience. They also rap about what’s real and that makes it timeless. Besides that… everyone… from young to old can understand every word. They were beautiful 30 years ago, and they’re black has no cracks. They are still just as beautiful now. They are a powerful alone and phenomenal when they collaborate. I enjoyed watching them over and over.

[@aprilwindley7490]

This absolutely amazing.

Wait a minute! The ladies are fully covered and still look amazing.
