Rjd2 - 'Work It Out'

[@twistedgambit9084]

RJD2 is iconic underground soul and hip hop

[@midnightinthemountains1]

In 2010 I was a hardcore emo kid. One night I saw an ad for RJD2 on Limewire and looked him up on KZbin. This was the video I saw. I stayed up until 3am watching videos and listening to his music. No joke by the end of the week, all the emo music was cleared off my MP3 player.

I found RJD2 on the forecast skateboarding video with Paul Rodriguez this whole skate video change my life forever and my love for music grew because of the amazing songs in this video. Blessed 🙏🏽

[@lucasramosp]

I would appreciate a HD version of it!

What's with your profile pic

[@J_PhD]

We've been waiting for it for so long. Release it you cowards!

[@jaradracine1872]

Wouldn't we all... let the man dance he is obviously HAPPY AS FUCK.. it's ok I'm French 😂

[@jermalshemism3367]

This video deserves a remastered reupload, such nostolgic vibes right here.

[@epickett63]

Wow! This guy is SMOOTH! He's like Jamiroquai on crutches. And is amazes me that so much appears to be done in ONE long shot...

[@drumstick74]

He's like *Jay Kay* on crutches. Jamiroquai is the band name. :)

[@epickett63]

@@drumstick74 Whoops - thanks! :-)

[@drumstick74]

@@epickett63 No problem 🙂

[@АртёмЮрков-ь3в]

What a classic. RJD2 was a blessing for my adolescent depressive episodes and now I can be all nostalgic about it. Rad

[@degauze]

I've watched this like a thousand times.. Nothing else quite represents such a great philosophy of life. Whatever you are, own it. Reform it, make it fantastic. But you have to own it all.

[@nubiennesoul]

i fell in love with this song while working at macy's. this song was on the soundtrack in the juniors dept...and when i heard it i wouldn't leave the dept until it was over. great song!

[@floppydeers]

I've been on crutches for a week and I have been working a hard labor job that requires a ton of upper body strength for 6 years and this shit is HARD! I can't begin to imagine how endurance this guy has.

[@cateacatelysteleven7800]

I adore Bill Shannon's work, he won't let you down :)

[@LudiniTheShark]

He's so incredibly smooth it looks like he doesn't even need the crutches.

[@DoveLady]

google is AMAZING. i saw this video 10 years ago, forgot the artist could only remember the melody. i googled "crutches guy city video" and this was the first result. THE FUTURE IS NOW.

[@quiettimegaming3642]

This is so dope, right... I haven’t seen this in nearly a decade...

[@nopeISdope96]

That’s the collective conscious

[@Vayabobo]

Just the dopest music video ever! Bill Shannon and RJD2 together...ain't nothin' smoother.

[@PaMcDonagh]

"Bill Shannon (1970) is an American artist who resides in Brooklyn.[1] Shannon holds a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.[2] Born with a degenerative hip condition[3], he developed a way to express himself through dance and skateboarding on crutches." straight from wiki, it has good references and everything!! its odd i know but true

[@nonlinearchaos]

Bill shannon has the sickest glides @ 2:27 onward... love this video.. love rjd2..

[@jaradracine1872]

I wore out my wax records of this album.. smoke and mirrors dead ringer .. everything

[@dragonfist25]

One of the most original videos I have every seen. +5

[@billclemons5593]

CRUTCH IS DOPE! LOVE HOW RJD2 made the smooth transition to MAKIN beats to making lyrics composing and Bringin it all together

[@kustomkure]

RJD2 is brilliant. One of the best producers of all time. Video works so good with the track. One of my favorite videos. When i see a piece of work like that i'm concerned that there are stil people who know how to behave themselves, how to live and how to make music. Much love to RJD2 and all Defjux

[@gpboiler]

Bill Shannon brings class like Don Lockwood from singing in the rain, but adds a modern twist to match this song really well.

[@adamfox18]

This song still invades my mind from time to time. That is a good thing. HOW does this magic only have 457k views!? I've always thought this video was genius.

[@quiettimegaming3642]

amf18 if they released an higher quality version it would probably go over well.

[@timofreeman4574]

I think people with physical disabilities would come after this video, And rightly so. I mean come on, a dancer who doesn't Even use the crutches to support his weight dancing with crutches? Really? Now give me someone who actually dances on crutches while not using both legs, THAT would be DOPE AF

[@zachd4693]

@@timofreeman4574 "Bill’s contributions to dance include a very specific movement vocabulary evolved through his creative use of crutches as a child after the discovery of a physical disability that effected his ability to bear weight in his hips. Bill’s subsequent immersion in the emergent youth cultures of hip-hop and skateboarding further contributed to his autodidactic form on crutches"

[@apathytag]

That is pretty sick, i love how smooth his movesare...like hes gliding.

[@wicks001]

that wall ride with the crutches was sick

[@EyenBlack]

I love bill shannon since he was at the cirque du soleil and made me shiver during his solo in tha show...i love the crutch thing...

[@danceprof1]

great timing and expression

[@SlickPopz]

Its been a whil since Iv heard this...Great song for when your Pissed off, sad, depressed, or stressed.

[@cateacatelysteleven7800]

He shreds !!!

[@Turing-Complete]

One of the best videos ever... beautiful lyrics and perfect video to go with it. I wonder how many takes they took to shoot the really long scene starting at 0:37

[@simbeam]

Both video and song are awesome!

[@johnclifford9272]

Amazing vid ... great song.

[@TheFlight420]

The only reason why someone would dislike this video is b/c they: 1. found some crutches. 2. hurt themselves on said crutches. 3. are now watching this video again, 4. and still can't 'Work it Out'

[@asia898989]

Great work, Bill is amazing with this, what he does.

[@tyniaczkos]

'take it easy, don't worry about it' :) oh god! this song and video are really awesome :)

good shit for sure

[@timofreeman4574]

Thanks to someone who replied to my initial comment: I have learned that even though it may appear he does not need the crutches to walk, I have been informed by someone who knows who this man is that he does indeed need them to walk. I stand corrected and I am glad that someone informed me!!! ♥️ Knowledge is power and it shall set you free!

[@BeastyBite]

this mans name is Bill Shannon and a true inspiriation for everybody who has to overcome injurys or illnesses. this guy needs his crutches to walk.

[@timofreeman4574]

@@BeastyBite Thank you so so much for educating me! I am completely dumbfounded how he makes it look like he's barely using his crutches. I'm going to check this Bill Shannon out , And you've helped recruit him another fan :-)

excelente video

[@Psyence1]

I don't think he's mocking anyone's disability here. I think this guy found out that he's really good with crutches. He rocks it out. He displays strength, flexibility, an dexterity. Put that together with some RJD2, and you have a winning combination.

[@HasanaMakabe]
