88-Keys Details What Young Kanye West Was Like Before Fame | People's Party Clip

[@uproxx]

Favorite early Kanye produced track - GO!

[@banksofbarcelona3893]

H to the IzzO V to the IzzA

[@NostGold]

Haha I see what you did there, 'GO!' by Common is one of my favs from him, that was a great album too.

Scarface - Guess Who's Back

[@zd1813]

that conversation with Ye's mom and hearing that he spoke to his mom every night like that actually touched my heart

[@A4bhishe7k]

Man I teared up listening to that...

[@jamal1079]

Shouts out 88-Keys for bringing us "No Church in the Wild"

That instrumental is INSANE

That "Stay Up (Viagra)" song & video they did is classic!

One of funniest videos of all time..

[@bighou2359]

That was my shit. Had that on repeat all day everyday.

[@thebrokenhomes]

kanye telling the future in that one!

[@spencer4hire]

No doubt!

[@SamuelMedas]

If this aint the DOPEST channel giving insight into hindsight hip-hip, then i don't know what is. These stories are everything. Love it man

[@rusroyce]

Very cool channel!

if this aint the dopest then the dopest must be really dope

[@jaseallenson316]

Drink champs. People open up more, when they are on that sauce.

[@jaimemartinez2528]

I'm glad 88 Keys is getting some shine!! This brother is talented and very underrated. I'm looking forward to this episode on Monday

[@jammawun]

Crazy. I lived in Newark in '99. I met Talib @ The Roots event called Black Lilly. I met and ciphered with 88 Keys at Fat Beats one day. I never met Kanye. Didn't know that him and Kanye were buddies. This interview brought up a lot of good memories.

[@charlesriles252]

RIP Dr Donda West. Love from the Chi

He's basically telling the story that Kanye was telling on "Last Call" 😮

Kanye's out there mentally, Don't know if he'll come down to earth for an actual interview.

[@stephenheath8465]

That man is in his own reality right now lol

[@A4bhishe7k]

Ye and Talib have some differences. But maybe one day Ye might show up... I wanna see that happening

[@GMANKOOL23]

That will never happen . Kanye is too Hollywood for these dudes

[@renebetancourtiii1456]

he would do it. patience these things take time

[@AGETheGawdYT]

Seeing Talib speak so highly of Ye makes the things that Kanye has said about him recently all the more discerning

[@wahoo4uva]

*concerning

[@kondwanimande7567]

Talib was talking too much before, that's why she ye went at him

88 Keys talks about Kanye is straight up dope 🔥

We feel that and much appreciated

[@beatsbykobra]

kanyes never changed. he is evolving which none of you can accept. "i miss the old kanye" half of you people saying that dont even know what changed in him anyways

[@hnpet4245]

EXACTLY!!! Also, imagine trying to "time capsule" the process of a person's growth. We all need to grow and evolve. Imagine if Picasso stuck to his first painting/drawing style from earlier on in his career, he wouldn't be the Picasso we love and adore today.

[@beatsbykobra]

@@hnpet4245 yeah 100%. their goal remains the same, but their way of achieving their goals improve

[@VAPORFEELS]

Kanye isn't perfect. It's okay to admit it. He's grown in some aspects and devolved in others just like everyone else.

[@mylurr12]

I can’t stand the “I miss the old Kanye” ass people

[@JEFFMAN90]

Naw he's not. He's gotten worse but you Kanye stans are too blind to realize it.

[@nickolassucharew840]

Kanye is like the prime example of people not feeling you at all at first, but if you keep going and keep improving your craft, people gonna give you your props, then eventually copy.

[@Kaiju_222]

88 Keys just might be the most interesting man in the world, and his music has always been incredible, best interview yet

[@88PLR]

Love 88 Keys production style 🏆

[@lunaashotz]

homie is an absolute legend, goin down as one of the greatest producers of all time. big respect

[@suparickyprime]

This! UPRX is the missing link in HIP HOP Culture right now , so awesome to see the converrsation flowing ... that Feeling of HIP HOP in the Room... BIG UPS UPRX ! MAD RESPECT LOVE & ENJOYMENT !

Hip Hop radio for Grown folks, Thank God

[@williamcarter8918]

Wow that's a beautiful story, that's how real black Men should connect!

[@jimmiferfreddette8583]

Talibs voice is perfect for podcasts or radio. It’s so smooth. It’s also very nostalgic.

[@Johnwilliamflautist]

This was so cool and insightful! 88-Keys is super dope!

[@antoniorose1206]

Quality podcast, and whoever did the camera editing did an amazing job!

[@vulanemthembu]

Thanks for bringing the legendary 88 through!

[@saksmarcus]

Stay up is still one of my favorite songs to this day

[@s.m.i.t.2207]

Mine too!

[@Inspirmentalist]

88 and kanye are brothers man... they remind me of me and my best friend.

[@devine_noise]

Rawkus records was such a good era for hiphop to me as a highschool student studying the culture. That label led to the Reflection Eternal album and the Def Jux and Rhymesayers labels.

[@mikemarsh1983]

88 Keys you a legend!!! That ‘Stay Up” video was hilarious. One love.

[@BrandNameLess]

he has a little of kanye's college dropout personality.

[@leronflames2429]

I ain't gon lie that Alicia keys joint was hard most ppl don't know he produced u don't know my name

[@Arian545]

It makes sense honestly when considering how soulful Kanye's first two albums were, ofc it was logical for him to produce something like an Alicia Keys song.

[@jahnome]

Leron Flames2 one of my favourites too. I never knew that

[@eanderson5199]

Kanye produced that?!

[@abergs-dp2ob]

and mos in the video. what a bomb squad

[@apoclypse]

He also wrote the hook.

[@djnemawk]

[@plutobaby9996]

People don’t truly understand how much a parent(s) can affect a child it’s life or death when it comes down to how you’re raised. You can’t tell me Kanye would’ve been KANYE if he ain’t have donda in his life feeding him with positive affirmations

[@declined7]

I did always assume he was a keyboardist haha.

[@FatherOmega]

True Feelings and Handcuffs by 88-Keys are absolutely slept on.

Thank you for sharing. Love hearing stories about Kanye. Are they both still friends I hope?

88 Keys emotional transparency is uncanny, and I understand why Ye’ befriended him.

This guys a legend,

[@RaiRaiBrown]

88Keys had the jam, Stay up. I loved that song.

[@88PLR]

Where you going? 😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@khartoumlavage4253]

Kinda funny how that "Stay Up" vid is the first time you see Ye and Kim around each other officially, even though the seemed nowhere-near-close to being an item. S/O 88-Keys for that cupid-like Blueprint.

[@natashabrown6147]

I never heard of him!! Probably cause he was somebody talking with some sense and was solid somebody that should of had way more spotlight than was given!!

[@rockhills]

He put out an album called The Death of Adam. Super underrated. He and Kanye had a song called Stay Up...did a video for it. You should check it out. Plus the stuff he did with Blackstar is fire.

[@hyperbolicdude]

Stay Up is still the jam

[@MoneyMakinNique]

wanna see Keys and Just Blaze do a Ralph Lauren battle

[@matthewmann8969]

Kanye before being a household name was making noise or and ringing bells by making beats and producing for others so he already had a buzz before being signed to Rocafella yeah

[@HatianHurricane]

This is the first time I've ever visited this channel but I have to say that the sister with the curly hair is absolutely adorable. What a beauty! That smile is intoxicating. I don't care. I have to give credit where credit is due! On another note, if you are truly observant, you can tell that the unexpected death of his mother is what changed Kanye forever. At the height of his career, he lost his mother! That scarred the brother differently!!!

[@americanshottas]

Ag2akey 💯🙌🏿

[@eighty_ocho]

americanshottas not my production. That was a different guy who went by the same name. Slightly different spelling. You’ll know my production from his: mine is sample based.
