"Dedicated to Chester" That was enough for me to give a like

One of the most beautiful Collabs of the 21st Century... R.I.P Chester

You can actually feel the emotion coming off this performance ...

Rappers these days can't perform their songs live let alone perfect. This is so good.

Respect to Jay Z for this.

Shit, I shed a tear. This was hauntingly beautiful. Mad respect for Jay-Z doing this after all these years.

''So for one last time make some noise'' I really felt that :'(

I could see the pain for the loss of Chester in jayZ' s eyes. 😔

Great performance, Jay he was feeling it! Chester deserved it

He never has his eyes closed like this...fuckin amazing man

I remember when this Mashup happened, and how iconic it was and still is. Two musicians that will live in history for my generation. My kids will definitely be listening to Jay Z and Linkin Park.

I love the fact that during Chester’s part Jay stayed silent other than emphasizing Chester’s lines with a “Yeah”. He let Chester have his moment during this even though Chester is gone.. that’s respect. That’s love right there. Jay absolutely loved Chester and Linkin Park. There’s a reason he agreed to do Collision Course. He actually enjoyed Linkin Park’s music and thought Chester was one of the most impressive singers he’s ever met. He was always blown away by his range. Mad respect to Jay for letting Chester still have his moment.

I remember bluetoothing this song to my friends on my flip up Sony Ericsson... This video gave me so much feels, R.I.P Chester! :(

It felt like he was backstage singing.....Miss u Chester!!!

I could never respect Jay Z more for this. This is such a beautiful tribute. Thank you for being such a beautiful human being. And thank you Chester for being the voice of a generation. I love you and hope you’ve found peace.

2:10 "Chester". Damn

Yes. So fucking epic.

Man what a song , amazing blend of two different styles, man Jay Z got emotional, Chester is deeply missed 😢😢

When Jay said "You can't replace him, with cheap imitations from this generation"... I feel like he wasn't talking about himself anymore.

Almost 2 years from the tragedy and now listening to this I still feel heartbroken, miss you Chester. Respect to Jay Z.

The way he hold the mic... His eyes closed all the time... Jay-Z really respects Chester, damn. Uniting two completely different genres back in 2004 was a really risky shot. The way it turned into the one of the best collab ever seen is fucking amazing. Legendary for sure. Thank you for this tribute.

that, "Get em Jay." at the beginning gave me chills

I must be hormonal this had me in tears the sheer respect from jayz just beautiful

“Dedicate this song to Chester.” He is a GOAT🐐

Thank you JAY-Z ,Respect,God Bless,#MakeChesterProud

One of the few videos that i will be happy to see trending. Legend/storyteller/RIPNUMB

I always wondered what was going on in Jay Z's mind during all this: Looks to the left, remembering the spot where Chester stood during their House Of Blues show, for playing Collision Course for the first time. Then gets a flashback of every time he performed with Chester, gets emotional, closes his eyes and stands in front of the mic stand in a pose similar to Chester's.

Such a classic! We hope you're resting well Chester

heartbreaking to see jay standing there by himself without chester.. rip

Love the way Jay pauses for Chester to come in.he waits.can see the emotion in his face.

It's been four years and this still brings tears to my eyes

I feel like this was the last tribute i needed to hear, rip chester, your music will live forever.

One of the best tribute to Chester ❤️

I remember hearing this for the first time on the radio in the car and it made me cry. Even on the radio without seeing Jay and his body language you could feel the emotion. Greatness recognises greatness. Linkin parks music imo is genuinely beautiful, Chester was clearly in so much pain and he took his pain and created something beautiful that resonated with so many.

He raps on the Mic the way Chester sang on it.

Jay-Z is a beautiful human for doing this. There's a reason HOV is the GOAT.

Thank you Jay-Z for remembering Chester 🙏🏽

That was emotional to watch, even 3 years on

Sincere tribute from Jay-Z to Chester.

my heart stopped when I read that title... RIP CHESTER

I just cried so hard. I remember hearing it for the first time and listening to it so many times. It just hurts so much

This made me tear up, and I don’t listen to a lot of Linkin Park but I was a kid at the time they came up and I remember how much they took the world by storm. Lots of respect and gratitude to Jay-Z for such a moving, emotional performance.

This tribute always moves me. I’ve never seen Jay get emotional but you can definitely see it in this video. RIP Chester! You are missed and loved!

RIP Chester ❤️

You can see Jay-z wiping away tears. Damn.

Thank you Jayz for not forgetting Chester...It was a perfect time to say Good...Chester came, saw and conquered...

this is beautiful. Just look at Jay-Z's posture and hands. After the first hook and listening to Chester's voice his whole demeanour softened. and for Jay to not echo a word in a song for that long... If you just watch his other tributes and such you can see there's a difference. It wasn't just respect to Chester, there was sadness in his eyes. Even in his interviews back then when they asked him about Chester and etc, his mode would always change. His responses never felt like a politically neutral statement or rehearsed. And this man is pretty damn smart at responding to questions and situations. I just wanna say thank you for your openness and willingness to do this Collab. Every time I watch the documentary, I smile when I get to see what you feel. From the start where you were still maybe apprehensive while heading over, to when you were listening to the beats and probably thinking ok I think we can do what MTV needs, to knowing MTV gonna owe you guys big time, to the respect you gave on stage and finally that look we all know after seeing Chester scream. You are a true G:entlemen. Btw, Collision Course was the 1st LP I ever bought. The memory of the first time I played that on my Technics, remembering practically running back to the player after to stop it after the 1st 10 seconds, feeling this deserves everything to be perfect. Spending the next few days tuning my system back and changing stylus. And finally when nobody was home at 2pm on a Tuesday, my neighbours thought I was pissed at my sister getting my Starbucks order wrong.

Chester will never be forgotten ❤ may we all wear his heart on our sleeves

he closed his eyes all the time...

Man jay put more emotion into this live lounge than I seen on stage with some artists… I prolly would’ve cried. You can see all the memories rushing back, when they were in the studio just chopping it up. He looks up and hopes that Chester can see that he gave this performance everything he had.

Man this was honestly really cool of Jay-Z to do this, especially with as much heart and authenticity in it ultimately honoring Chester, much respect to Jay. Perfect tribute keeping Chester's spirit alive through the music

The way Chester sang "I become so numb" forever sends chills down my spines

holy shit, the "chester" part onwards, really hit me in the feels, it's so weird and sad not seeing Chester during a live performance, and just hearing his voice.

Flawless performance. Just like the studio version.

I always go back to this video. Will forever love and respect HOV for this touching tribute. Jay tha GOAT for real. Rest in paradise chester

INSTANT chills. Well done, Jay Z. Much love to Chester, who we lost WAY too soon.

After him, there shall be no more.

THE LEGEND IS BACK TO SLAY..👑👏💯👌

This was such an amazing tribute to him.... Jay-Z can always write his ticket... I appreciate this.. I'm 39 and I miss Chester. 💞

00:30 "Get em Jay" This hit Jay fr man

This man is still fire 🔥 🙏 respect.

I'm here from Linkin parks post respect for doing this and respect to Chester for being such a great musician and helping us, thank you

You can see he didn’t feel right doing it but my god he absolutely killed it, sounded better than the live performance he actually did with Linkin Park 14 years ago

I come here way too often than I care to admit - that's how beautiful this performance is to me.

Chester you will continue to live in our hearts forever!!! ❤️

The performance duo between Jay z and Linkin Park was the first time i saw Jay Z emotionally touched at the part where Chester sings. I personally believe no one had ever moved Jay Z like that before especially with his own song and this is why Jay Z felt compelled to do this tribute. There really will never be such a great collab ever again. Rip !!

Jay is so clear, theres no cutting corners.

What a wonderful song for Chester one of the best singers that ever lived 😢you will be missed hard core

So emotional watching this, props to jay z but most of all rest in peace Chester ❤️😞

Anyone notice the usual irritating BBC 1 noises at the beginning and end are missing? I assume they are silent out of respect for Chester...this was great, mad respect for Jay Z.

Much Respect. RIP Chester

Rest in peace Chester Much Respect to you Jay Z

thank you so much for this jay z. he deserves all the tributes...:(

I SEE HIM SINGING FROM DEEP DOWN HIS SOUL.... RESPECT J

Bloody amazing. Mind blowing performance when the came up with combo. Chester and jay z. Damm I wish Chester was still alive to do another collab

My respect to JAY. He sang from heart as his eyes were closed the whole time.

talk to someone you trust about your issues. Most of the time you will be glad you did. If you cant fix your own life, try to help someone elses

This is the iconic and legendary crossover Jay Z when he goes into other musical genres. This man has been able to reinvent himself for 20 yrs. You got to respect Rip Chester

Me : don't damn cry. You're in a bus. Jay-Z : to Chester. Me : damn you Jay-Z

The king of hip hop says goodbye to an angel.. #respect

not having Chester in the world honestly sucks. i miss him so much and it's evident that Jay Z does too and i thank him for doing such a great tribute to Chester.

I'm shivering... what a memories!... love for Chester and Jay Z

This brought me to tears.. RIP Chester. You are so missed

A so raw performance ❤

I can feel the sadness 😔

Rest In Peace Chester

The 1.8k dislikes is disrespectful asf for real

chester will remain in our hearts forever.

This shits legendary!

Scrolled through the comments for a couple minutes and didn't see any negative comments. Proud of you guys

This is a top 40 hip-hop song of all time. What a classic.

Great performance. When Chester is singing, I still can't get over it. RIP Chester 🖤

Wow. So many feels. What an amazing tribute. Had me choked as soon as Chesters voice played 😥
