Damian Marley feat. Bobby Brown - "Beautiful"

Posted on March 22, 2006 12:04 PM

Damn, am I glad to be doing videos again?! That Flavor Flav shit will rot your brain.

By very popular request, we're gonna watch the Prince of Jamaica combine forces and weed-sack contents with the King of R&B. (By now you all should know that shit stands for "Rocks & Blunts.") In an ode to the loveliness of womenses both inside and out "Beautiful" [watch it now] emerges as Damian "Jr. Gong" Marley's third video single. Add the crack gurglings and dance stylings of Bobby Brown and you've got yourself a jam!

I didn’t know that was Bobby at first. I thought it was one of the destitute ghetto yute (youths) from the “Welcome to Jamrock” video.

I recognize that spin move Bobby does! He did it on The Chris Rock Show 10 years ago. (Come to my house! I got that episode saved on DVR.) I also saw someone who looked just like him doing it on the Red Line of the T in Boston.

Please tell me Jr. Gong didn’t smoke with Bobby Brown! Well… that’s the beginning of the end for his ass. I’m callin’ it. Once you smoke with Bob or Whitney, there’s no coming back. Aw hell-to-the-naw!

Did you see Bobby on "The Shop?!" (Them niggas can't do it like me, but respect to their spirit.) While he's obviously Pookied out, he hasn't completely lost his sense. I guess unlike his Corpse Bride counterpart, he hasn't discovered that Crystal Meth shit yet. I told y'all Bobby wasn't the problem.

Uh Oh… Damian is shoutin out Jazze Pha like all of the other rappers. As disturbed as I am by this, I would pay money to hear Damian say “’Ear me now! Dis be a Jazze Phizzle produc-shizzle.” (The worst attempt at an “izzle” catchphrase I’ve ever heard.)

I see they hollered at Black Eyed Peas for guidance on making the video. I thought I saw Fergie in the video too. I don’t think it was her though… just a light-skinned video extra (who serves about the same purpose in life as Fergie does.)

You gotta have the right layout for the crack monster… which they do. In the scheme of things Bobby sounds pretty damn good. Much like in Thug Lovin'. “And I know you’re getting boooooooored!”

Pretty dope video. I’m not angry at the social commentary in the background imagery because unlike other artists who misuse the visages of our fallen heroes, Damian Marley seems sincere. I’m actually quite surprised at how much of a handle he seems to have on the plight of black folks… you know… being that he grew up as an unofficial prince of Jamaica.

I’m also glad they put another track out from Damian that’s not “Jamrock.”

  • Y did you all put that picture of Bobby up there??? Now u know that ain't right

    The song: I actually like the song and it's a good look 4 bobby.
    It's good 2 c him doing something other than getting arrested. I hope this inspires him 2 get his act 2gether
    Nobody is ALL BAD, I guess it's just difficult BEING BOBBY BROWN...

    Not too much to hate about this video. It actually sounds like an interpolation/reggaetized version of "Human Nature" by Michael Jackson. Good tune and Bobby Brown did his thing even though he looked like one of those kids from Musical Youth in the video for "Pass The Dutchie". Now that's a throwback video for that ass.

  • Sincerely,

    I'm buggin. You know why I forgot about that Nas joint? Because I never saw it.

    I swear to you, all I know about that time frame is "Lean Wit It, Rock Wit It!"

    and yeah... I know plenty about the Red Line. I got Boston connects.

  • Who the fuck let Bobby get in the video lookin like he is about to go paint the garage?

    Rolling up one leg of your jeans: 1994.

    Rolling up both legs of your jeans: too much crack cocaine.

  • Wow I am glad to see Boby get some shine other than his tv show! Which needs to hurry back on for the second season.
    BOBBY IS A LEGEND- No matter how crackish he get's. It just goes to show you that two Ghetto a** crackheads cannot get married without tearring eachother apart. I hope Bobby returns to some level as a singer/entertainer that he should have been pre-Whitney Houston Style.
    BOY MARRIAGE CAN BE A BITC**! Messed them both up!

  • Go head Bobby.
    In all actuality whitney was on that oh wee before she met bobby. and bobby being younger then her probably was baited on it by her. hopefully he stays on the straight and narrow and gets her ass some help... go bobby.

  • March 22, 2006 2:48 PM
  • RGK says...
  • Song is str8...Hopefully Bobby can get his shizz right and entertain on some type of level (spot dates, someone's tour, shizz even Las Vegas).....was wondering if they was gonna put this video out ever since they showed him in the studio on "Being Bobby Brown"

  • CISonfire says...
  • It's a song with a good social message, and it's pop because they got Bobby on there singing the hook. So, we'll be seeing more of it on at least one of the Viacom stations more often. "Beautiful," eh? Who would have thought that if you spend ten years getting arrested, going in and out of court rooms, and using drugs that you could revamp your career. Now all Bobby has to do is divorce Whitney's ass and maybe he'll get it together. But we know that Whitney's the type of bitch who would pour hot grits on his ass! Better ask Al Green! Love and Happiness!

  • March 22, 2006 7:48 PM
  • Joe Schmoe says...
  • The song is hot, and the video is okay. It's good to see Bobby the performer again instead of Bobby the crackhead/guy gettin arrested regularly. It'd be nice to see Bobby really get focused again & get back in the game.

  • March 22, 2006 7:52 PM
  • bigreg79 says...
  • Yo...just saw this video the other day i was like "where did i hear this before?" Then i remember, Bobby was singing this hook on Being Bobby Brown. he was making it seem like Damien was gonna be on his shit, like this was his song...oh well!

  • FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Bobby Brown looked like he just rolled outta the bed. No doubt.

    Shows you that you can't do a collabo with B.Brown...he steals the spotlight and everybody ends up talking about him and not the other artist.

    I'm kinda surprised that you threw out the RED LINE too. You know Detox is Boston all day. I'd actually hafta say more of the Orange line for Bobby Brown lookalikes.

    Bobby Brown is everywhere. Videos, The Shop, Wild N' Out....

    "7 in the mornin, she shampoo's my locs.." = Best lyric of the year.

    PS: I ain't gonna lie. I thought that was Fergie too. The video looks like the "Like That" video by the Peas.

  • March 22, 2006 8:59 PM
  • Stylezz says...
  • This my friends was not a music video....this is how Bobby and Whitney view the world. Bobby man...why are you lookin like Damian just caught you on the way to the gym? Why do you have sweat wrist bands on?

    Those were the creepiest metamorphesis' ever. It went from lightskin baby to a couple of light skin girls to some dark woman...what the hell?!

    Songs addictive to sing to...like singing the guys part in Alicia Keys' Diary (IIIIII wont telll). I really REALLY wanted to see Bobby try 2 buss a timeless jog or frog back...hell I'd take a solid cross heal toe.

    The video is cool...but I don't want this style to be over done like the hype williams thing...that really makes me want to shoot my tv

  • March 22, 2006 9:41 PM
  • Darth Detox says...
  • Stylezz,

    Don't forget. Tommorow morning. 7am. You. My locs. SHAMPOO.

  • Not a bad video, hot song though, am diggin Dame Marley, dude come with some good reggae. Bobby Brown still look like he need to go to intensive rehab for a decade. Shout out to all my Jamaican brethren, Kingston I see you.

  • March 22, 2006 11:36 PM
  • smokeymacpott420@ayhoo.com says...
  • Yo Damian Marley is on the Martin weed, you know that Sticky icky to think about letting Bobby do a hook, that nigga talks out the side of his mouth like freeway! Man he needs to leave Witney, cuz that bitch loves to snort meth. Marley dog do some shit with Mrs Hill, Lost Boys, Trick Daddy, Busta busta, you know some fools that actually know why you are!

  • March 23, 2006 1:16 AM
  • Ron Mexico says...
  • Mrs. Hill looks like she has snorted a little meth herself.

    Lauryn already fucked his brother. I don't know what their relationship is like.

  • CINAMON-RIDAH says...
  • I like this one better than Halfway Tree.. I think he put Bobby in there cuz Bobby is known for the edge in his voice and that was great for the song.... Now how many takes it took in the studio to do the Hook---that's the question..

  • That Song is Hot, along with every other song on his Album. That is probably the best Reggae album of 2005. I am usually more into the commercial dancehall movement but after hearing this album things dun changed.
    Welcome to Jamrock!!!


  • March 23, 2006 9:49 AM

  • That is probably the best Reggae album of 2005.
    ^^^^^^^

    True,that is a hot album. I still be bumpin that shit today. But, what took so long for a third single to come out????? I always wanted this song to be the 2nd single instead of the one he did with Nas, but the again,every song on the CD is rockin.

  • That video was nice.

    'I told y'all Bobby wasn't the problem.'

    Man Ronnie you took the words right out of my mouth!!!!

    If you pay close attention to 'Being Bobby Brown', Whitney is usually the one buggin the fuck out over all types of shit. One minute she's just as happy as Bobby, the next she's yellin at that nigga to 'come on'.

    FYI, the reason Bobby looks so broke in that video is because Whit put him on 'restriction' after havin to make those back child support payments.

    He's gonna have to lick a whole lot of carpet to get his 'Black Card' privileges restored.

  • March 23, 2006 11:50 AM
