Looks like we can add storytelling to Jamie Fox's list of skills

I've heard this story like a million times, and every time i feel like I'm listening to it for the first time

That story was good as hell and the storytelling was on point. I swear comedians are the best storytellers

They all thought he was going to say "Oh a different Kanye, before the fame, he was humble and quiet"..lol..Kanye has always had this strong self-confidence and Huge Ego, since day 1, that's who he is, he keeps it 100.

Yo Jamie needs a talk show. This interview was hella entertaining

Foxx paints a picture with his story telling felt as if i were there

the power of kanye

After watching Kanye's documentary everything makes sense. Wow what a work of art, Kanye is the best ever!!! Slow Jamz in the making, this is amazing!!!

kanye is legendary

"uh uhahhh, dont do dat..." HAHAHA

For those wondering the story starts at 3:30

I can't believe he is 47 years old. He looks so much younger

Comedian, actor, singer, AND storyteller. This man can do ANYTHING

He tells the story so joyously. Joyfully. Full of joy.

Dope. Jamie Foxx is a great storyteller.

whos back here again after watching jeen-yuhs

3:35 start of about kanye

Who else is here because they saw other videos of Jamie Foxx telling the same story lol

That 's crazy he said no one knew him. Then Kanye blew up with that song

Kanye West is a legend.

3:33 for when he starts talking about young kanye

I love the way Cruz lets the conversation flow. Most interviewers interrupt and talk over their guests.

In pretty much in ALL his interviews he tells these stories and I NEVER get tired of hearing them. How can someone tell the same story and STILL keep me mesmerized.

Ed slept on jamies couch for 6 weeks omg this man is a blessing to the entertainment industry, really and truly a jamie is something special

Back to hear this story after the Jeen Yuhs documentary. Amazing!

The 90s parties are undefeated

This hits diff after the doc

We need to appreciate this man while he's amongst us. He's a living legend for sure

Why did I listen to this like I was there. Who would have knew Kanye helped launched Jamie Foxx 🧐🤔

what jamie foxx hiding under that hat???? hes holding onto those headphones for dear life!!! lol

Came here after the documentary and it really makes you think how genius Kanye is

This nigga need to write a book...best seller

Going back and listening to the songs after the story’s he told gives them a whole new perspective it’s crazy

Jamie doing that part from gold digger live was fucking dope

I have heard him tell this story a hundred times and it's still as entertaining as the 1st time.

GREAT interview... this was a dope story to listen to. There's a lesson to be learned in stories like these... I meet so many hungry artists who are so desperate to meet "important" people... they wanna meet the famous rapper... the big time executive... that's the WRONG way to be thinking. Its always those UNKNOWN people who will Change your Life. They're the ones hungry for opportunities... ready to give... ready to work. You have to value every relationship you build... don't judge a person off their status... learn about who they are and what they do. Kanye gave Jamie Foxx his start in music... and at that time, Jamie was more well-known than Kanye. That's the lesson. Its not about status... its about the value of whatever it is you do, and how you use it to help the people around you.

Ive heard him talk about this many times on interviews but i still watch every one like 20 times.. this guy is talented.

I have always admired Jamie Foxx. He is so multi-talented it's CRAZY! He just makes it look easy.

A beautiful moment of God showing up in someone's life and changing their life forever.

How could anyone not like Jamie Fox.That guys got charisma

Jamie Fox needs a podcast or something! He’s a wonderful story teller, and I bet he had hundreds of story’s he could tell!

Did you know Jamie Foxx actually saved a mans life once? A car crahsed right in front of his mansion and started burning. He was the first person to be there and pulled the unconscious body out of the car before the medics arrived👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

The 90s and 00s was a crazy time for Hip Hop and R&B

Kanye West is a legend!

Jamie foxx pharrell interpretation is hilarious!!

. Jamie Foxx tells the story of how he met a young Kanye

Gives me chills every time I hear this story, 2 of my favorite songs

NOW we have proof of his story... We seen the clip on jeen yuz Kanye documentary

“This song is wack, he’s never gonna make it” 😩😂🤣💀⚰️

This is easily one of the best interviews I've seen in a long time ... and I clicked on it accidentally...

Thank u coody for having the footage of this story 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Its amazing

I can never get tired of hearing this story. Watching the documentary just makes it so much more surreal.

I used to think the Kanye story was a little farfetched until I saw it in Kanye's new documentary on Netflix caller Jeen-yuhs

man listening this story since 2015 and now 2022 seeing it was all recorded by Kanye's friend just overwhelms me man... Kanye's doc in Netflix, 2nd episode they show that exact moment when they made that Marvin gaye song in Jamie's studio

It’s so cool to finally see how this story went down on the Kanye doc! Awe 🥰

Jamie is one hell of a story teller man!

Here after watching the ye documentary and it just shows that Janie foxx was telling the absolute truth! Try playing this story while watching the scene in the background lol

Hands down easily the most talented human beings ever!

"I left to do a bad movie for 6 months." Haha

Jamie Foxx is like that one uncle who tells the same damn story every damn time. LMFAO

First of all-grew up in LA and LOVED this channel! Jamie is fucking amazing in everything he does! While in my current area filming Jarhead-I almost got on the bus. I didn’t get to meet him but the bus got stuck and my husband helped them get thru. I was so close. I adore him -have since ILC

Yall ever check out Dave Chappelles first time meeting Kanye? lol.. that shits pretty funny too.

Jamie and Kanye are 2 of my favorite artist .. chills

Yo this was such a good interview. Jamie is so dope

Damn I thought I know some hip hop but iam hearing this for the first the in 2022 and it's always fascinating how passionate these people are. Truly inspiring

After 18 years I'm listening to this song again... I'll simply say a masterpiece, great work Kanye and a brilliant performance by Jamie Foxx, my respects. Greetings from Chile!

Everyone talking about Kanye and Jamie, But the his homie Breyon the type of homie you need. He chilling at 3am and calls your ass up about an opportunity. It happens again and he like yo follow my lead and kicks in the door for you again.

I'm thrilled 🤗 to hear Jamie giving Kanye is 💐 for Gold Digger 😅😅😅❤👏💤🕊. Kanye believes in Ye. I have respect for Jamie Fox because he appreciate the people who open the way for him with his music dreams. He didn't talk bad about Kanye like that Chaka Chan. Love Jamie Fox🥰🕊

I still love Kanye. Because his music is genius.. just miss old Kanye. When he wasnt so effected by Hollywood..

Just seeing how Jamie Foxx started making music is so amazing.
