Nas & Damien Marley – Patience

February 7, 2011Musicby Staff68 Views

You’re watching the latest video from acclaimed hip-hop/reggae fusion duo Nas and Damian Marley. The video was both shot and directed by LA-based Australian director NABIL. The video was created in promotion of Nas and Damian Marley’s single “Patience”, taken from their debut collaborative album Distant Relatives. The track itself shows a sample from another musical pair, Amadou & Mariam’s “Sabali,” resulting in a mesmerizing work detailed with dark tones that match the lyrical content.

    sanches ur rite, ive experinced proverty when i was in russia but the message of this song is far more meaningfull, you really have to listen and THINK about what the message is. im thinking that our world is fucked up and tha goverment are not telling us what tha fuck is going on, furthormore our future and our new genration is going to be controlled and dieing, like the new world order

    I feel like this video is the movie 300 and Kanye West’s “Power” dropped into a blender. No hate for Nas, just sayin’ though.

    Imma have to be the only one to make some negy comments here. The track is dope, ok. Nabil did something creative, awesome visuals in places, kinda sloppy in others (sorry), and definitely on some “POWER” ish.
    NAS AND DAMIAN are dope, ok hypebeasts….but they are riding such a dead horse with that power to/uplift the people vibe. How many times have either of you been to Africa? I bet not as many as me for example, and I’m no multimillionaire reping some old ass message. Do some charity shows or come do some free shows in real hoods in third world countries. Playing for white boys in Europe and rolling in Bentleys is dope, I’m about that shit, but balance it out it homies. Balance it out if you trying to resent yourselves as some ghetto saviors. You know how much a ticket costs to see these brothers when they tour? Be real

    Mr. Smith,

    What Left-Brainers don’t seem to understand is the
    fact that the intuitive side of your mind hold thousands
    of more bits of data then the left.

    The reason why people (such as yourself) praise the
    works of Music Artist, is due to their ability to acutely
    illustrate the “encoded” ideas that the masses can’t
    seem to interpret. This gift, is right-brain function and
    has no place in the paradigms of computer
    programmers.

    The funny thing is, most left-brainers scratch at chances
    to exemplify their iq superiority, but never ask the question
    of why they can’t socialize, dance, dress, or get laid. As
    if solely talents in hard-logic were the only signs of human
    intelligence.

    I would beg to differ. I feel the signs of higher intelligence is being
    in proper balance with the Natural Laws of the Universe. This
    comes from wisdom, experience, and intuition, and are polar opposites
    to left-brain paradigms, ie “SMART DUMMIES.”

    Perhaps Damian Marley literally holds a sincere distaste for space travel and zoology (i.e. nerds) or…maybe he’s hyperbolically expressing dissatisfaction with our civilization’s priorities. idk

    I guess I like the video, lyrically I’m annoyed, I mean the beats sick, sounds nice, I love Nas from illmatic to stillmatic to the lost tapes.. whatever. But Its lines like these..

    “Some of the smartest dummies
    Can’t read the language of Egyptian mummies
    An’ a fly go a moon
    And can’t find food for the starving tummies”

    Yeah you don’t compare apples to oranges.. Scientists dedicating their lives to research, mathematics, and the sciences obviously don’t prioritize ‘feeding people who are starving’ over their life ambitions. Just another song that goes this is wrong, that is wrong, wow isn’t that screwed up, yeah we hear you the first 30 times.

    and then this

    “Pay no mind to the youths
    Cause it’s not like the future depends on it
    But save the animals in the zoo
    Cause the chimpanzee dem a make big money”

    Lot of people are out there trying, peace corps, UN, the red cross, yet you gotta act like no one gives a shit come on man, even I’ll go out and I’m no model citizen and I’ll do community service on the weekends and holidays. And whats wrong with saving endangered species in zoos and for educational purposes..

    flame me, just do it
