West, Kanye - Murder To Excellence Lyrics
[Jay-Z:]
Bloody murder, murder murder [x4]
[Kanye West:]
The paper read murder, black on black murder
[Jay-Z:]
This is to the memory of Danroy Henry
Too much enemy fire to catch a friendly
Strays from the same shade, nigga we on the same team
Giving you respect, I expect the same thing
All black everything, nigga you know my fresh code
I’m out here fightin’ for you, don’t increase my stress load
Niggas watchin’ the throne, very happy to be
Power to the people, when you see me, see you
[Kanye West:]
And I’m from the murder capital, where they murder for capital
Heard about at least 3 killings this afternoon
Lookin’ at the news like damn I was just with him after school,
No shop class but half the school got a tool,
And I could die any day type attitude
Plus his little brother got shot reppin’ his avenue
It’s time for us to stop and re-define black power
41 souls murdered in 50 hours
The paper read murder, black on black murder,
The paper read murder, black on black murder again
Murder again…
Is it genocide?
Cause I can still hear his momma cry, know the family traumatized
Shots left holes in his face, bout piranha-size
The old pastor closed the cold casket
And said the church ain’t got enough room for all the tombs
It’s a war going on outside, we ain’t safe from
I feel the pain in my city wherever I go
314 soldiers died in Iraq
509 died in Chicago
[Jay-Z:]
I arrived on the day Fred Hampton died
Real niggas just multiply
And they say by 21 I was supposed to die
So I’m out here celebratin’ my post demise
If you put crabs in a barrel to insure your survival
You gon’ end up pulling down niggas that look just like you
What up blood? What up cos?
It’s all black, I love us
[Kanye West:]
The paper read murder, black on black murder,
The paper read murder, black on black murder again
Black on black murder again
Black on black murder again
[Jay-Z:]
It’s a celebration of black excellence
Black tie, black Maybachs
Black excellence, opulence, decadence
Tuxes next to the president, I’m present
I dress in Dries and other boutique stores in Paris
In sheepskin coats, I silence the lamb
Do you know who I am Clarice?
No cheap cologne whenever I “shh-shh”
Success never smelled so sweet, I stink of success
The new black elite, they say my black card bear the mark of the beast
I repeat, my religion is the beat
My verse is like church, my Jesus piece, now please, domino, domino
Only spot a few blacks the higher I go
What’s up to Will, shoutout to O
That ain’t enough, we gon’ need a million more
Kick in the door, Biggie flow
I’m all dressed up with nowhere to go
[Kanye West:]
Yea it’s all messed up when it’s nowhere to go
So we won’t take the time out til we reach the T O P
From paroles to hold G’s, sold keys, low keys
We like the promised land of the OG’s
In the past if you picture events like a black tie
What’s the last thing you expect to see, black guys
What’s the life expectancy for black guys?
The system’s working effectively, that’s why
I’ll be a real man, take care of your son
Every problem you had before this day is now done
New crib, watch a movie
Cause ain’t nothin’ on the news but the blues
Hit the mall, pick up some Gucci
Now ain’t nothin’ new but your shoes
Sunday morning, praise the Lord
You the girl that Jesus had been saving me for
So let’s savor this moment, and take it to the floor
Black excellence, truly yours

West, Kanye Murder To Excellence Comments
jayz must really like melo
WHAT UP BLOOD
WHAT UP CUZ
ITS ALL BLACK I LOVE USSSSS
Kanye should have put the original song's name as he sampled only the part these girls also sample!!! It's sad to see their names put forward instead of mentioning a 100+ years old romanian tradition. They shouldn't get as much credit for something they didn't even make. A more fair approach would have been clearly stating the nature of the sample and it's origins and only after that mentioning them. This makes me feel like it was stolen without giving any credit to my country. It's very disrespectful!
Here's the link to the ORIGINAL:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3r0AsEB8gM
It's back on Spotify 😭. Thank you HOV
Murder to Excellence is finally on Spotify so I don’t have to watch this Melo comp anymore
only real ones knew the struggle
It's only on for today cause it's Hov birthday
Melo is back!
We weren't ready for this song has so many messages !!
Fetele de la Căpâlna❤️ Gotta love this soundtrack as a romanian
Full WTT album - https://www.reverbnation.com/jayzkanyewestwatchthethronealbum/songs :)
“314 soldiers died in Iraq, 509 dies in Chicago” still one of the dopest lines ever!!!
"Black Excellence, Opulence, decadence"......Damnit Jay!
Why is this the only way i can fully listen to the song
That beat switch tho🤯🤯
LMFAO WHY IS THIS THE ONLY MURDER TO EXCELLENCE LINK
Carmelo Anthony joined the Baltimore riots. I had alot of people on my mind about this. Jay Z was the one who created this song.
The US president cannot convict someone of a crime. I don't know who has all the wealth. I couldn't get passing grades at WCC no matter what I was capable of. Jon Cuatt said that will was so good at persuasion. In my 7th grade year book in said most cats are left pawed. I dont care about what hand someone prefereable uses. Hey tough shit buddy you joined the riots skipped a day of work. No job poor on the streets. It was absolutely barbaric how I couldn't get a job until 24 years age. I am trying to think of the comment where I was going to write. Instead of failing grades at school. How about employee of the month. You should judge me by my actual performance. How i am on the inside is none of your business. I am a tolerable law obeying citizen.
This joint is timeless
Cause I can still hear his mama cries, know the family traumatized, shots left holes in his face, bout piranha sized
Yeezy went crazy
i miss melo :(
I loved this song so much back in the day and still do. Cant believe how long ago it was when I uses to roll around my hometown as a dumbass teen hot boxing the ride to this song with my buds. I never cared much for kanye until this song. And seeing how he is supporting our president due to facts even though the lying main stream is attacking him at every way for it...I can concur that he really does have soul
Back to this being the only video of murder to excellence 🤦🏾♂️
Matthew Penn I know dude wtf
Lol @ a melo tribute
Could give a shit about Carmelo.
Song gives me chills bruh
Jay and ye dropping once someone signs melo😳👀
“In sheepskin coats, I silence the lambs Do you know who I am, Clarice? No cheap cologne whenever I “shh-shh” Success never smelled so sweet I stink of success, the new black elite” god fucking Damn Hov smh Jay Z is the best rapper to ever live
PAPER READ MURDER
Didn't know Melo had bars like that
Simon Hill underrated comment
He’s great at altering his voice to sound like Jay Z and Kanye at any given moment as well.
Prettying balling,!;(
Template @activegeareds #footaction jpgeinaction
Melo ain’t been good since Jason Kidd been on the knicks 😂
The background girls are from traditional romanian song. Check this remix of the original song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWcSDap5GKw
Carmelo murder to fatulence
Bring this album back to Spotify
Melo is the most garbage player ever. Only scored a lot cause he signed max deals being the best player on a team who was allowed to shoot so much. Basically a Kobe with no other option. Sucky teams but his pockets sure were full. He’s not a team player and over hyped. Garbage af
2018 still missing the genius Kanye West. Please come back bro
Listen to his song Ghost town, that's easily the best song this year
Watch the throne of me
So they ain't put Kanye last verse
Did anybody else just come for the song and not the Melo tribute? Lol
Fuck u punk
Yeah, jay z stingy af wit his good music
Vali Iordache 😂😭😭
Thomas Stark we eating good on Spotify
Hell ya kkkk
He should of been a Piston smh
Aaron Bohannon
Woulda been titles instead of just the 1.
How do I get my this song in my video to upload to youtube
we only here for the tune
The Knicks for Jay, What about Ye tho
Omg this song❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Where do you find the 2nd half
Shout out to the people that got away with uploading Watch the Throne by making nba tributes to the songs.
This made me like melo
🤣😄😮
This song already on iTunes Music
Kanye always had better verses than jay when they did songs together
Bmore24 t gotta disagree
Jay has always been overhyped and isn’t as good as people say he is. He’s really honestly not a top ten mc 100
Not always it depends there both lyrical and Kanye dose better in this song is but I find Jay more lyrical
@Joseph R U DUMBNU JUST LIKE LIL PUMP AND MUMBLE
@Joseph IS IT CRACK YOUR SMOKING OR DICK?
How come the Knicks and Nuggets were good when Smith and Melo were on their teams🤔maybe Melo should go to the Cavs
BAB Squad foreal melo was a beast on team usa, he just need a competitive team. In Addition to that lebron makes everbody around him better, so it would be the best fit if melo would go 2 the cavs
Imagine Ife he goes to OKC that would be crazy😂😂😂😂
i was looking for 'murder to excellence' ...... i didn't find it, but i found Carmelo Anthony
TFW you have to watch a Carmelo Anthony highlight video to hear this since it's been deleted elsewhere on YouTube and Spotify
Ayeeee I can't wait to play you in smash
They brought it back on Spotify, we in luck
This song was deleted from YouTube and spotify wtf

I feel the pain in my city wherever I go
Three hundred fourteen Soldiers died in Iraq
Five hundred and nine died in CHICAGO....
Melo is an overpaid bum
Kenyatae Thomas you sleeping on melo
This song made me appreciate Jay Z. " Do you know who I am Clarice?"
Nick Harley his silence of the lambs wordplay was golden
Kanye West & Jay-Z Ft. Fetele de la Căpâlna (Romania)
Yes and it sounds so good 🖤
Exact!!!!!!
The song dont even go with the video
Hey man,but it's the only video where the song is available. So i'm not complaining
Black on black murder..Melo killin niggaz on the court lol
I arrived on the day Fred Hampton died That is a hard ass line
poetmm it really is
Had to Watch a dang Melo Highlight to hear this song
The Knicks ruined Melo
where did all jay z music go? why do they keep all the illuminati bigoery but not let a rich black brother mason shine?
Dashwan Jones jay z owns a streaming service called tidal, so removes all his songs from all other platforms to try get more subscribers to tidal
Big boi 18 Nah not all platforms, it’s on Apple Music
Thank this nigga Melo we can hear it on YouTube!😂🔥
Can't find this song anywhere else
@Milkaysa Harun Yea. Big respect to Jay doe for being a legitimate businessman and hustler 4 Life.
The only app u can find his music on is Tidal
Ayy, that’s a win:win situation. Mellow was a cold-hearted killer. He MURDERED on the court 8)
@The Raging Demon and amazon music.. At least here in the uk
Everything Jay Z is back on Spotify 😭. Thank you HOV
dominos... dominos...
And the beat was shit and so were the rhymes
Shit as trash?
Robin Ray haha lil yachty is so trash it's hilarious
RNO Boy this song go hard y'all sleep
This song was whatever they were talking about black on black crime but didn't really say how to stop it
the song name is "murder to excellence". trying to inspire the young people to aim high and reach their goals, becoming excellent.
Do you listen to music or skim through it?
Listen, Kanye said we need to redefine black power, Jay also mentioned I love us..indicating we need to love ourselves and put the guns downs. There a lot of jewels in the song..
@David Lee See I'm influenced by the ghetto you ruined
love the Knicks
This song is fire
