I need more of KRS-One knowledge in my life

[@sueyyness3642]

We all do. Dream collaboration. Hero among heros and heroines.

[@robertbailey2570]

Definately...Big rob from da uK

[@elviw3003]

Do it,got more since I saw he is still here (music industry wanted us to think he is no more), I was so stupid to believe that! I just swolowed all the words he said (all I could find) and feel so much better about many things,and me too... didn't need years of therapy! You just go with your idea, may only lead you to something "krazy"! To your real self!

[@AlexanderDivineEmcee]

KRS-ONE can be found on the ‘Temple of Hip Hop’ KZbin Channel every Sunday at 12:00 P.M. EST dropping KNOWLEDGE come hang with us

[@kemenubookclub]

This officially my favourite KRSONE interview. I've learnt alot from him and somethings about myself too. Shout out to BASS for holding it down with tha teacha! Love from and Emcee in South Africa, Headz!

[@NoFaceNoCase629]

I love this interviewer!!! There's nothing like an intelligent black woman!!!😍❤❤❤

[@rdozier2356]

this video is doing more for me than I can say. this man story is sooooooo inspiring. I can so relate and he got it even worse. Looking forward to meeting KRS one

[@Nemarr]

Need this KRS is one of the greatest of all time

[@angeldrippingmelanin2247]

I love krs1 I learn a lot from him pure realness 💋💋💋

[@CelinaCharity]

What amazing energy these two have! I would love them to reconnect for a spiritual conversation 💝

[@lorenzbeaumacc1175]

Coming up I didn't have such beautiful blac sisters around to fall in love with and dream of getting married to. I grew up in France around white people

[@tobiastinkl658]

That was a spiritual conversation. But agree, some more of these two is always a good thing

[@jerzyypanesso5089]

KRS ONE is light years ahead of this interviewer it's so noticeable. You can tell he takes it easy with his statements and theories because she seems so ACADEMICALLY structured and reliant on this "training" she's attained. She's intelligent don't get me wrong, but of a different realm.

[@prixipix6589]

you niggaz iz pussy

[@Monchi2006]

well shes conducting a interview thats how you do it

[@lavalefields8198]

I respect your you coming from but she is actually matching wits with him

[@ayedubbjr]

I disagree. She is the interviewer and had an agenda to get certain information out. He is being who he is and lectures. Not the perfect setting for that.

[@michaellawrence223]

I don't believe that this is true at all. I think that she is quite astute , very knowledgeable. She is not KRS1 or isn't trying to be him. She is doing her job and bringing up some good points. He would come across the same to you with anyone interviewing him. She is not there to debate with him or hold him to account. She is examining along with KRS 1 assistance elements of his life for the benefit of the watcher or listener.

[@phillipskelley8522]

KRS-One is a legend in the music world his music has laid ground forthwith hip-hop music scene nowadays big ups to him

[@NextSound170]

We need another talk with these two. Brilliant

Great interview! Being a fan for years, this is the first time I learned so much about KRS-ONE.

[@emergematic9048]

Krs one this is a great interview she is great at it!

[@waynethompson5724]

One of the best KRS interviews I've seen....& still cut short.

[@kazonikz]

You can learn a lot and be free listening to KRS One. People who criticize him doesn’t has the sensibility to understand his points, to you people I say that you shall remain ignorant.

[@LysergicLunatic]

KRS One should have a professorship somewhere. People raised on information need people like him to teach them actual knowledge.

[@aboveduality1300]

There are people who criticize this guy?? Get out of here...

[@robertbailey2570]

Yes

[@cynthiapace6631]

Still informative in 2020 😊, My son introduced me to the artist in the late 80's, his knowledge shaped an era of my sons awareness the knowledge of a reality often mis understood. My Son is now a Man and the message of KRS 1still stands strong within. Life Lessons

[@OfficialUrbanLoungeMusic]

KRS One is Brilliant!

[@michaellewis5422]

Wow "you have to deal with people at the level they are on" one of the most profound quotes I ever heard

[@SUPEROBSCUREBEATS]

funny story ... you look at all krs music videos with multi-millions & hundreds of thousands of views here on youtube, & see THOUSANDS of RECENT (post-bambaata comment) comments still supporting & enjoying his music, not even caring about this recent shit. those who have "turned against him" or now hate him or were never really fans or whatever & are just on the whole "fuck krs" thing, i mean sorry to kick a little reality but ya'll are the VAST MINORITY. KRS STILL HAS & WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE MILLIONS OF FANS & SUPPORTERS - he will continue to put out music, sell old & new music, have people bumpin his music, & tour the world.

[@richardmarsh4993]

SUPEROBSCUREBEATS funny story.... The comments on his KZbin videos are MODERATED. Look at unmoderated videos on other channels and you see a different picture. Yes, he still has fans. But not so many. All that's left now is mindless sheep.

[@aaronbrutus1239]

SUPEROBSCUREBEATS I don't care who you are if you're speaking knowledge that can give me a better outlook on life. then I'm going to listen and I don't give a fuck what other ppl think.

[@lamaraverytv]

Krsone is very sharp & Knowledgeable. Great wisdom!!

[@jamesbrown7639]

I hope Krs. is being profound still.

finally some great questions for the GOD Emcee

[@JorgieTV01]

Great interview, thank you. I always feel empowered after hearing krs speak.

[@sholaebofin6090]

many people tell me this style is terrific! it is kinda different but lets be specific.' krs is still the greatest live mc!

[@SocietateaAscendenta]

This so INSPIRING! One of the best interviews ever - because of what KRS had and always has to SAY. I would like to say so much, about what this man just made me (re)think again. Man... "Slavery never existed, cause if it would, it would exist today, as well..." Man...

[@Rizzlyricist]

KRS-ONE SPOKE ALL FACTS! I LOVE THIS INTERVIEW 🔥🔥🫡🎤

[@rvalyfe7780]

Back then the energy and magnetism in hiphop was undeniable! Everybody found everybody who was needed to be successful!! Now all we gravitated to is likes😮??

[@joyandpeacefullaughter5307]

I looove these stories about chance meetings that change your life forever. Never be afraid/ashamed to sell yourself and own your craft.

[@canalope777]

Biggest take away from this as I see it is that adversity breeds strength, growth, and especially creativity. Adversity is the greatest teacher. Big ups to KRS1 for being honest about the tough beginnings.

[@NewEraSupreme]

Love you KRS-ONE! FOREVER!!!! #HipHopWillNeverDie

[@rdeye-rb1pe]

Oh don't forget to go back to the days of Trojan reggae the melodians toots ,the maytalls , always throw them on the drum machine, absolutely got to have my Trojan vinyl I was twenty-three when I discovered that, trying to find something to throw into the instrumental, not completely building to beat with those rips but throwing rips on top of my drum tracks, nojo Trojan as well as reggaeton general, as a whole culture in that sound it will raise your vibrations, I can imagine how Bob took New York.

[@blackdon9147]

I love KRS1 but to hear KRS1 say Scott La Rock gave his last and put his own family and bills on hold to make sure he made it, broke my heart because KRS1 never ever looked after Scott La Rock son, Scott La Rock Jr after Scott was murdered. Scott La Rock Jr has stated on many podcast platforms that he and his mother has never heard from KRS1 after his father was killed. Scott La Rock Jr also said he has never been to KRS1 house, never ate a meal with him, never talked to him no nothing. Infact, Scott La Rock and his mother still live in the hood in the Bronx. To hear Scott Jr say that, made me look at KRS1 different. KRS1 should have gave his last to help Scott La Rock's Sr. Family when he was killed.

[@unforgiven1682]

That was Scott's reponsibility not KRS'

[@DbeeM]

I’m down with KrS one , but damn the dude can come off super arrogant and so self -congratulatory. He makes some good points and then goes off the rails on some other points, in my humble opinion, of course.

[@corecrit3007]

Most greats are arrogant, funny thing is. materialistic people like Jay Z get praise for cocky arrogance, but when you speak knowledge like KRS the ignorant don’t like it…that’s why it’s not for you…it’s educational, not up your lane

[@corecrit3007]

You don’t sound too down with him

[@robertanderson9544]

I've been a BDP/KRS fan since 1987; but It's disappointing KRS stated "the Irish were slaves in the United States;" that's flat out wrong, and there is no documentation that supports his statements.

[@ridiculoustentoes3433]

What is the interviewer's name? She is truely brillian. Her mind is so lovely.

[@joeimanolmelchor]

Krs1 the One!

[@terryknight5869]

Hmm, KRS-One addresses the movie 12 Years a Slave and and of course everybody claps because he acknowledges black female suffering not being acknowledged (which we all know is a lie because black female suffering is acknowledged all the time and it's acknowledged WAY more than black male suffering) but he disregards black male suffering when he addresses the allegations of Afrika Bambaata by males by saying that the allegations are just allegations, and of course everybody claps to that also. Typical.

22:05-22:16 Exactly Americans wasn’t listening to Reggae at all and knew nothing about it. Before or the same year Rap Records came out in 1979,a movie film “Rockers” was released in the same year 1979. Many artists,Deejays producers all were in this movie. Jack Ruby,Drummer Horsemouth,Bongo Herman,Jah Wise,Jacob Miller,Gregory Isaacs,Leggo Beast, just to name a few. In fact it’s starts off with Nyahbingi & introducing Greetings with the I’cient Ashley Iyah I. You should remember him from the Coral Gardens Massacre “Bad Friday” Wildstyle was Hip Hop first movie and Style Wars was Hip Hop’s first documentary and Beatstreet 3rd Hip Hop Movie after “Breaking “… I definitely feel Reggae over Hip Hop. Those Beaver Fur Hats Horsemouth and Dirty Harry was wearing with the Red Gold & Green colors were like very revolutionary for the liberation movement of African people descent.

He's right you can go back on our culture of the Irish going back to 1400 , we were also bought to be honest and not to offend anybody we were bought on a ship next to the African slaves as well and we weren't indentured servitude either it was slavery, never got paid for anyting again we have to remember that the Europeans settler, will never ever change, and it's in our system in the United States government now more than ever in 2023, they just change the narrative from race to politics.
