The Story of Al Green | His Crazy Life Behind The Music

[@CJCrump]

There needs to be a biopic about this man's life. Picking an actor to portray Al Green would be a tough task.

[@justinshuler4280]

Lol facts.. but it looks jaleel white could do it or even kel Mitchell if he wants to get his career back going

[@lrs1519]

I can see Yayha (Candyman) playing him

[@theemiszalex]

maybe Lakeith Stanfield?

[@justinshuler4280]

@@lrs1519 yooooooo I forgot about bro.. he could be good too if they wants somebody well known but I like when they take risks on the unknown guys lol

[@justinshuler4280]

@Truth Speaks lol facts bruh..I feel like he'll be perfect fr especially since back in family matters days he did alot of impressions before

[@lrs1519]

His music just makes me want to cook beans, greens, a pot roast and some cornbread with a glass of lemonade on the side. Just soulful.

An absolute LEGEND and ICON!! will never be another AL Green!

[@zanejones8558]

I can't believe Al green has not made a movie about his life he one of the best soul singers of all time his life is seem full of drama and love and pain

[@laurenreneebrittany1797]

I'm 31 and Al Green is ironic! "Tired of Being Alone" will forever be my fav!

[@kikieaddy2576]

[@WhitePhoenixCrown]

Let's Stay Together and his version of How Can You Mend a Broken Heart will always be my favs.

[@SuperBeachbum74]

My 10 yr old niece loves his version of “ how can you mend a broken heart “

[@beaniegee5129]

All of his songs are timeless

[@beaniegee5129]

Al Green is and still is a legend

[@monilaninetynine3811]

He's also an abuser and alleged killer.

[@kwameaboagye121]

Brother Al Green is my hero. Man, oh man he's so phenomenal. His classics is breathtaking. Love and Happiness is excellent and his Keep me Crying excellent too. Big up to you Brother Al Green - a soul and gospel singer and healer.

[@cosmicbeauty5682]

My mom told me about this yesterday. How he turned his life around after his gf did what she did. Crazy that you uploaded this video today, but provided even more perspective. Great video

[@Miodrag.Vukomanovic]

He killed her and is hiding his depraved and sick nature behind the guise of religion. True psychopath right there.

[@danavixen6274]

Good or bad. Happy or sad. Al Green is STILL one of the TRUE and FEW living SOUL pioneers! 👍🏾🎵🎶❤️

[@kimoraarmoni7760]

All this time I thought this man has passed over , good to see he’s alive and well 😊 great video as usual ❤️💯.

[@crencottrell7849]

I needed Chadwick Boseman to portray Mr. Green while he was alive; he would've done a great job. R.I.P. Chadwick 🙏🏿🙌🏾

[@inthemixwithleahbpodcast]

He would’ve been awesome!!!

[@carsondouglas8600]

He did all that work and told nobody he was terminally ill. What a strong dude.

[@thebrownbaldy]

Right

[@thebrownbaldy]

@@carsondouglas8600 Ikr, nothing but respect for that legend.

[@chinitachairs2527]

oh my yes I'm loving your vision. I have been patiently waiting for a movie or docudrama about Al Green 💚. Now that I read your comment about Mr. Chadwick, I just can't see it any other way. Rest easy Chadwick B. 🤍✨🤍✨

[@elgnganal3492]

His music is a testament of time & how it's been sampled in a number of tracks is hella slammin'🔥

[@AmoMe2009]

You knew it was time for some Al Green when the vaccum came on, when the kitchen sink water was running and when the spray bottle was spraying during weekend housework with mom and pops.

[@mommasgirl9428]

Right?!?!?!

[@rissaceehart4076]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@thebrownbaldy]

No lies told at all

[@michaelmitchell5098]

Amen!!!

[@beaniegee5129]

His song Love & Happiness was heard in movies such as Love & Basketball, Madea's Family Reunion and Menace II Society

[@shavonfrazier1388]

That is my JAM!

[@dannydamnmendez]

It was also in the beginning of Jason's Lyric

[@chancebrown106]

I will NEVER forget seeing the Legend Al Green live in concert around 2009/2010 and he was singing and performing his heart out and leaned over put his hands on his knees and slung a bead of sweat off his head into the crowd! I can’t remember two weeks ago but I damn sure recall that clearly!!!

[@kamwilliams5541]

😩😂😂

[@jovanbrown9673]

Al Green performing on Soul Train with that sling on his arm was a entire vibe he killed it!!!

[@MrCarltonjsmith]

Did you know that the reason his arm was in a sling was because a crowd of women broke his arm pulling on him as he was leaving a place?

[@kikieaddy2576]

@@MrCarltonjsmith NOOOO.. I didn’t ‼️

[@draperlamarcakes]

Such a talented man. Blessed with a magnificent gift, but lived a life marred with misfortunes and devastation.

[@daking901]

LaKeith Stanfield looks too much like Al not to make this movie

[@mizzjacquettaxx6974]

I still listening his many songs. His music are soul timeless.

[@cecesianity]

What the hell! That was alot of chaotic information in 11.24 mins I had to jump back 10secs so many times I was literally like 'what did you say?' Those are some sticky situations, Minister 😅

[@Miodrag.Vukomanovic]

He hides his evil nature behind the guise of religion.

[@TooSkinnyKenny]

his music has a tone that no other artist has. When other people do his songs it doesn't sound similar.

[@dominiquejones3805]

That Willie Mitchell sound

[@TooSkinnyKenny]

@@dominiquejones3805 check out the song he did with Arthur Baker, "Leave The Guns At Home". Quite different from his classic sound and I'm surprised he agreed to do a song that topical.

When that happened people started calling him Al Grits instead of Al Green… Savagery at its finest..

The 1 person I think who can pull off Al Green is Lakeith Stanfield maybe… or Anthony Hamilton .

[@nicolesherman8974]

I think it’s interesting how Al Green transitioned from R&B to gospel in later years.

[@sarahsimpkins1311]

I liked his gospel song sung that came out in the late 80s Call Everything is gonna be alright!

I think Al Green has done enough for the world. He does not owe us an explanation for his private life. To me he was the sound of the 1970s.... he and Mr. Mitchell.

I know that they say that the woman took her own life. However, my mom would always say he did the deed and then became a minister. So he was never charged.
