For those of you whining about The Roots backing Gary - they were on the remix... plus they're THE ROOTS. It's a damn honour to have them backing you. Powerful performance.

[@iwillnevergetone5]

it's still giving the shaft to his band

[@matguerra333]

What did you see? This was garbage. It doesn't matter who you are, when you hit the stage you better perform audibly at the least. This would've sounded better in my one room flat with me engineering it.

[@solitairedoll]

Mat Guerra You’re not a professional. You have no bearings here, boy.

[@mattasticmattattack8546]

God bless The ROOTS! And Texas

[@alonzox5420]

Mat Guerra how was this not audible? U just hating straight up

[@PhilCherry3]

This song is so important right now! R.I.P. Ahmaud Aubrey & may your killers be brought to justice swiftly!

[@1egobreaker]

Even more important today in 2024

[@g.a.b.4914]

Easily the dopest performance at the Grammys this year, actually, the best in many years. Gary Clark Jr., one of the top guitarists around, backed by the Might Roots.. Are u fu^*ing kidding me!!! Incredible song! Step up the likes ppl.....

[@leahill4452]

...and the views!!!

up until now

[@MrWalkman99]

STILL ROCKIN TO THIS IN 2024

[@ktr5961]

Really shouldn't censor this song,

[@DarkHairedCurlyOne]

Thank you!!!!!!!

[@jtd277]

he didn’t the second time around

[@tommygunz5325]

Couldn't agree more, in its raw form......its one of the most powerfully loaded songs I have heard in generations. (and in my 50's). Phenomenal Artist and song writer.

[@towen1977]

Was just thinking the same thing. With all the morally questionable things they allow, and then they censor a raw, honest message. Beyond lame.

[@gleisonferres]

Good version, but it is a ridiculous censored version.

[@reanimated]

Thank you for repping Texas so beautifully, Mr. Clark. ❤‍🔥This song gives me chills every single time.

[@tiarichmond8705]

I saw him live in Dallas and he's even better in person!

[@Sloth55Chunk]

Gary is the first ticket I buy anytime he plays near me. Absolute legend.

[@shroomzzz]

If you're here and hearing Gary for the first time... Go and listen to his entire catalogue. Gary is one of the greats.

[@winnifredmiller7759]

Thanks Gary all of this is my message n you speak the loudest in my tone of voice...your biggest fan ,my 11 year old son is playing this on his guitar with an expression on his face like yours ,excellently done ,your burning some skin with this song

[@IanOPadrick]

Legitimately one of the best songs I've ever heard. Instrumentation alone puts it up there, but the whole thing, so so good

[@PhilCherry3]

One of the best protest songs of the modern music era!

[@poonelopetheduck]

So damn good. What an important message, and what a great way to send it.. I still can’t get over him literally making his guitar sing what sounds like words. It’s awesome.

[@schizoidman7916]

Sorry, I have to disagree with you. I looked up the lyrics to this song and they are stupid. Complaining how horrible it is in the US. Name one country that treats people better and offers more opportunity for freedom and success. Then to include the "N" and "F" words multiple times is just ugly. Gary Clark Jr. certainly isn't oppressed. He is richer and better off than I am or anyone I know.

[@poonelopetheduck]

@@schizoidman7916 good for you my man. You can disagree, that's the beauty of art. It's subjective.

[@Lightning-gg5iu]

@@schizoidman7916 He still has to deal with racist telling him that the house he owns can’t be his and calling the cops on him for no reason

[@Kenjh71]

Only the The Roots can look cool with a tuba.

[@parapapapa69]

Cool indeed but you gotta check Trombone Shorty or any other new orleans brass band. Plenty of fucking cool tubas out there!

[@abelashes2676]

Check out Delgres...not a tuba but close...

[@jacksmith2617]

I really appreciate Gary Clark jr. Not only as a fellow musician but as a person and what he has to say. I've been hearing is stuff for a few years, seen some interviews, Gary is a real down to earth guy. Very cool and mellow, but when it comes time to play can undoubtedly bring the fire. Great performance, and here is to many more to come.

[@garyoconnordbaairrepair7775]

I just found this Gary Clark, Jr from a Blues TV. Now I have heard this song on a local radio station. Great song.

[@joshwettlin6670]

SO POWERFUL! BADASS..Love this Dude. Austin reppin'

[@harmonydavis4836]

Love this man

[@micahdodson6291]

This song needs to become a banner for this cultural moment. It brings tears to my eyes thinking about the tragedies and generational systemic injustice. #blacklivesmorethanmatter

[@soglelaw1]

Would you cry tears if you were told the truth of Clark's shenanigans?

[@beerzerker8359]

I can guarantee you that most of the people in the audience don't even care about the meaning of this song. Gary Clark Jr right now is one of the best guitarists on the circuit and horribly underappreciated in the music industry outside of other guitar players. I don't think people realize as well just how many great black guitar players are out there right now that don't get much recognition outside of guitar media circles either. Christone Ingram is amazing, Robert Randolph (slide guitar) has been doing great things for almost 20 years now, if not more, Eric Gales is incredible, Tosin Abasi is pushing the boundaries of instrumental shred guitar and you've got Gary over here doing what he's been doing for almost a decade now, creating great rock and roll. These guys are great and I love listening to their music as much as any other artists that I enjoy.

[@rodrigotavaresdesouza369]

Gary is the best, ain’t nobody can get him now. The last album is awesome and he’s on fire. I had a chance to see him live and meet him after the show in Paris last vacation. Such a humble and nice guy. What him and Zapata do live I call magic. Hendrix would be proud. Cheers from Rio 🇧🇷

[@Operry]

Amazing

[@masavoy0228]

Like, why is he that damn good on the guitar

[@gobinstruments4597]

Good old hard work and talent

[@redangel169]

He's amazing period, but yeah his guitar playing is next level. Check out his catalog.

[@ethanrummel7638]

Gary with a flying V is pretty dope. Plus that is easily one of the best solos the grammys have ever had the honor of featuring.

[@samdegoeij6576]

Never let them break you!!

[@sylvielopez2686]

Tank you very much hopefully muchas gracias

[@allenetube]

great message. Great guitar. great song. I saw a young boy of around 6 walking down the street recently singing ""THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND. THIS LAND IS MY LAND"....by Woody Guthrie and it MELTED MY HEART. This land is for EVERYONE and we need to keep singing that!

[@wages7992]

Your a wonderfully talented artist. We love you Gary. Haters are mad right now...yeahhhhh

When is Gibson going to release the Gary Clark Jr Flying V

[@mattasticmattattack8546]

I agree

[@Gas-Stn-Sushi]

When he plays one for longer than a week.

[@Mojothreepwood]

Disagree, SG all the way

[@Gas-Stn-Sushi]

J Johnson I’m not hating at all. That’s the truth of the matter. GCJ (and a lot of other artists) play a lot of different instruments, most of them for brief periods, before returning to their old standby.

A great AMERICAN artist....a needed breathe of fresh air......period

[@sagegroomer5547]

I miss live music so badly. As a nation we need a place to mourn and recollect after so much tragedy. Gary speaks so much truth.

[@cu806]

This an needs MORE RESPECT. This song should've WON a grammy(s)

[@billyfaulkner4532]

I am glad this is on U tube I didn't look at the Grammies, cause I am not A fan of this modern day hip hop or theses new artist with computers and producers with youngers with no talent and skill to play a instrument or write there own music...artistry , and musicianship has been thrown away by these corporate record companies...until I saw and heard this young man......Music has a chance ad long as the industry doesn't push him out into the cold....only the future knows....period

Gary gives me a lot of Peter Tosh vibes, just the way he moves and his facial expressions, especially this song.

Gary said I’m gonna give these people a real performance that night. Definitely better than all the ones from this past year.

Tyvm Gary & crew! Censoring, icymi, ...first chorus 'n-word'' is bleeped, 2nd it isn't [02:00] , x 2, & airs an f-bomb for good measure, lol :D

[@buderabu]

He censored himself. There was no bleeping in the first chorus.

[@GREENGENE18]

...em, no [actual] bleep, but at first listen it seemed like someone at the front of the house muted the mic. Upon review, I see what you mean. The vid shows Gary doesn't mouth the lyric in question either. Interesting-er! Tyvm...

[@elpiuvros]

Playing in front of a slave house, and they censor the lyrics. How ironic.
