- Russ is back with his latest album, 'SHAKE THE SNOW GLOBE.' The tracklist includes the previously released cuts, “NIGHTTIME (Interlude),” “CIVIL WAR,” and “BEST ON EARTH.” This is his first LP since 2018’s 'ZOO' and he says he's mellowed out since then -- but will fans and enemies forgive his previous way with words?

He’s cocky but tbh he’s saying a lot of truthful things worth acknowledging...
@Blockaye the 1st every rapper says that😂
@Blockaye the 1st bro didn't juice wrld get inspired by future to do drugs?
Blockaye the 1st bro shut up💀that’s literally what kids are doing everything you’re saying makes no sense
@Blockaye the 1st ISNT PUMP AND PURP AND FAMOUS DEX AND FUTURE AND YOUNG THUG AND LIL WAYNE AND A MYRIAD OF OTHER RAPPERS ALL OF THEM HAVE PROMOTED DRUG USAGE AT ONE POINT OR ANOTHER
@Blockaye the 1st he says straight facts you just a fucking sheep 🐑

Cringe bro
J D even tho it’s facts lmaoo
@Luqman Beast I know it’s facts but using quote this for Russ is hella cringe.
Russ' personality would be perfect if he were a WWE wrestler.
in WWE, you cant pay your "boys" to jump your opponent for you.
Jeremy Galkin 💀
@@prodtfm hahaha! 😂😂😂😂Damn Boi!
He's WWE's Seth Rollins, but without the cardio.
big heel type beat
Every rapper is cocky, they’re just mad he speaking facts and will have a longer career than a lot of those other rappers
The fuck kinda planet are you living on where this pretentious asshole who tries to jump anyone who talks shit is going to do better than literally any other person. People stop caring about you when you cry over everything.
Russs is trash
Poliojones how many rappers out here promoting violence, drug dealing and drug using? And we’re getting on Russ? Really
@@MrSayWhatIThink23 I mean yeah if your brain is smooth enough to not understand that they are saying that shit as filler lines.
Young & Ambitious a lot of people like me did drugs before listening to rap and simply just relate to it . Especially when it comes to people like peep and juice . Some people have addiction problems and just find peace in other people going through what they have .
The Russ memes were funny back in the day but honestly I agree with everything he has to say 🤷🏼♂️

Y’all can’t lie Russ speaking facts
123 Collins I can lie actually watch me. Russ is good
but wrong delivery so it distorts the message
Mohammed Lamin not wrong just harsh, and sometimes you have to be harsh to get the message across
Hes cocky but he speaks truth
123 Collins And He is Still - Mad Corny so far Lol 😂
DRUG ADDICTS HATE HIM.😂😂
😂😂😂 NOOO
Facts
John Nino Yamson in general people don’t like him. It’s more because he’s an average rapper that talks like he’s actually doing something new
Find out how one man made the game hate him with one simple trick
I’m Spoon
He’s average cause he’s not talking about the same things Atlanta born rappers are??? He’s still a great rapper and an even better one for bringing the change we need to hip hop, no more of this glorifying rappers who do drugs then be sad as hell and confused when when they OD
It’s blatantly obvious that a large number of rappers glorify substance abuse. how can it be so easily misconstrued that someone who is against those messages gets turned into “someone making fun of people with addiction problems”??? It’s one thing to speak on drug use as a coping mechanism, it’s another thing entirely to brag on how much drugs you do.
Exactly
Thank you for saying this.
Glorifying substances and abuse them will lead to the down fall of generation somehow turned to making fun of addiction problem
Bunch of clowns
Best explanation
people who dont want to think of themselves as addicts or fiend-like will see blatant call outs as an attack to their character and will get offended and defensive
A Russ message is like swallowing a pill with no water. Some people just have a hard time accepting the truth.
He's right hes just douche bag too
a russ message is like giving a pregnant lady a laxitive, youve got the right intention but youre doing everything horribly wrong
Rappers like Russ are what kept me enjoying hip-hop.
This is kinda off topic but damn wouldnt that be disgusting
Well I like Russ. He is straight forward and actually pushes a positive message.
Factsss
True
But he still bitch
@@backtoback2800 L
he is 5′4 and a bitch
Russ has a good message and makes great points. He stands for the right things. The problem is he's an arrogant asshole about what he says, and in general. But I feel like we need dudes like him to shake the game up lol.
Basically right message but bad execution Lmaoo
@@bryansantillano To make a long story short. Yup lol.
Check out the song remember me from boondawg he has a very equal message
I agree with you except for the part where the game needs him, he needs the game. Don’t get it chopped, the game has survived a long time without him
Matthew Henry look my guy I know you might not understand but the music is changing just like rock music isn’t the same neither is rap. I love old school hip hop and I might not like every new rapper but I do fw certain artists and you might call it mumble rap but there’s plenty of people who enjoy it.
only immature people would actually HATE him. The guy is a genuine personality.
It's not like this Russ dude is wrong at all.
MY BOY SHAWN CEE ON GENIUS✊🏽💯
On gang
AYE LEts tag it 4:00
Yessir da mf goat
LETS GO I GOT SO HYPED SEEING HIM TOO
Right! Ive never seen a Shawn Cee clip on Genius. Pretty sure Dontai has been. But as soon as I saw Shawn Cee I was ecstatic for him
He talks real. People hate to hear the truth. Especially other rappers with all that auto tune.
L
bosslosox5 especially the ones who talk bout drugs 24/7
Tf wrong with auto tune you corny fuck
@@Jedanzaid It sounds fake and robotic. And stfu, I never said I don’t listen to rappers with auto tune.
Lol, people are just sensitive. That’s why
I can see how he would get back lash about the shirt regarding to lil peep but to brag about yourself actually being successful...people hate on anything
@@mylesmikieal Myles Em TV litterally everybody does that on hip hop brag about how successful they are.DLO is right people are sensitive
@@rinzoviktor7055 you ain't never lien
As someone I was watching recently said... People have things that bother them. Just because you can't understand it, doesn't make their feelings any less valid. Because if you were in a similar situation, and/or you felt negatively affected by something someone else said or did, then you wouldn't want people calling you weak or something along those lines.
TheUltimateKIC It’s not that I don’t understand or anyone else of that matter that the topic applies too. No feelings are being invalidated by any means. The fact that I understand it better than others is why I get it and I don’t care. I mind mine and worry about being a better me. Why would I care what a single soul says about me? I don’t. Never will. Why can’t grown ass men get that? And If something bothers an individual, then figure it out. Best life advice I ever had. Manifest your own path and stop worrying about others.
Don’t do drugs eat fruits instead like watermelon🍉
Saiyan Prince beautifully put together
Saiyan Prince stfu
SHAD DA CHOPPA SLINGA How’s that racist? Watermelon is my favourite fruit so I said watermelon
@SHAD DA CHOPPA SLINGA Ion kno mane , I could realize the misinterpretation but you cant call racism for the fuck of it b. Get the facts before you do so, and before you go on and call me a white racist. I'm a mexican who loves watermelon and many other fruits. Spread love not hate brotha, some I learned from Haitian friends.
Lollll seen a nigga call u racist, whoever said that themselves is racist because y did u automatically associate watermelon with black people😂
i think russ has a silver tongue, he's very aware about society, but i don't think he's in the position to address certain topics in the way he does.
I think so too but I honestly love that he’s gifting this message and mentality to hip hop as of right now so that he may be remembered as a sort of “Kobe” to the rap game in a few years when they finally realize that Russ was on to something
Certain topics... like?
Nah, the people offended by him are just too busy tucking their penises and are hurt that someone would tell them something they don't want to hear.
Russ is literally "Love him or Hate him, He's speaking facts."
I’m actually screaming that I’m on here 😂❤️
hahah me too
Yooo how did you get on there
Nora Fathe where
Ayeeee
I love that song manifest
Ma boiii Shawn out hereeeee
s c x r c h . Fr bro shawn really made it to genius ☝🏼☝🏼
@@Elequite I made it too lol
Here I am 😊😊😊
Oh never mind 😞
ayyyyyy
I have not heard about a single name other than Russ in this video, which goes to show the kind of appeal Russ has. You can fight him, but you cannot ignore him
Well...it is a video about Russ innit? Plus you heard all the producers so that's cap
"my haters are my street team" lmao mood
I still don’t understand why they hate him.
He just speaking faxxx🗣🗣
Used to hate Russ, but then realized that I what he said is actually truthful, and I was just conforming to society
prod. KashKari oh dear lord
Stfu
Glad you woke up 🙌🏼
prod.KashKari you were a sheep
"no one is more hated than he who speaks the truth"

Plato
From this I assume that Cardi B and 6ix9ine are the biggest truthtellers
@@p.atrickclarke thanks
@@tommyscarlet I like Cardi B
The quote doesnt fit in this case. If someone like kendrick lamar were to put out the same message he would get no shit for it. Russ has only himself to blame for people not taking him seriously
Man, i can't hate someone who's actually talented and keeps it real
He is doing NOTHING WRONG Stop glorifying drug use and using depression as an excuse.
He isn't giving a bad message just the way he gives it is worse than anything else
@@purpsly What now Russ has to make lullaby for y'all to stop drugs?
@@asutoshsilwal586 he shouldn't fucking use someones death to make himself look cool and smart, thats a fucking dick move and you know it.
Poliojones sounds like you can’t handle the truth tbh 🤦🏽♂️
@@alexandergutierrez7611 aight
Love him or Hate him, hes telling the truth,
and if the truth hurts that means your living a lie
saying the truth about producers making trash?
@@netfreaks22 I mean they be letting trash artist use their beats
@@netfreaks22 Yup
Put it like this:
You're at the dinner table and you need the salt, which is closer to your dad than it is to you
What do you do?
A. Could you please pass the salt dad?
B. Pass the fucking salt.
You're essentially asking for the same thing, but there are right and wrong ways to do it. Russ may have some points, but he could pass them on way better, and that's why people dismiss him
If he is black and from the hood, he would be loved by same reason and praise as a hero.
My issue with Russ is that he seems to see himself as some sort of genius because of some very obvious statements. Of course drugs are bad, of course violence isn't good for any community, etc. . The thing that he doesn't seem to realize is that music is a form of expression for artists and not a melodical ethics class for teenagers.
In short, dude's got a little man syndrome
That's a tired ass excuse an unaccountable when that message comes out an destroy lives.By being easily accessible.That's hurting people there is an impact younger generation that are more susceptible an they mimic the behavior.There's is much more to life than fame an sitting idly by is complicit.Share your truth don't wallow an make it a lifestyle.
Bingo thank you someone said iy
This is a very interesting observation. Interesting point 🤔
Fair point ☹️
MY BOY SHAWN CEE MADE IT
Right ! I was hyped to see him
gang gang
The problem with Russ is, he tries to give a good message, but the way he execute it is so wrong. He won't even throw hands himself lol
So having no message at all would be better ?
D A R K K O id rather not have cake at all than to have cake with dog shit on top of it.
D A R K K O hes saying the execution of the message not the message itself
@Marilyn Mercury nah, I don't think brawling is cool, but why send goons? Can't you call him out face to face, or if things get outta hand then brawl
@@balmainrichard1335 u know that is what happened right... He had tried to have a convo with all of them and then shit went left...
I’m not even a Russ fan at all but he one of the realest in the game. FACTS.
People hate on him for the same reason they hate on anyone who speaks truth they don’t want to hear-it makes them uncomfortable. It forces them to WAKE UP. People don’t want to do that.
I also liked how you presented this video...big ups
my dude shawn cee
2:53 the most savage moment 🤣🤣
Everyone should read Russ' book. It fully explains the stuff he can't fit into a song or a Tweet. Very insightful and motivating. IMO he's a genius.
He honestly speaks what others stay quiet about respect and he makes good music too ! 💯👏🏾
Just drop the tmg vid already
Qnni Russ will mentally fuck the shit out of people

Sibusiso Dladla honestly even if you can’t stomach the truth J S is speaking facts. Btw Mac was one of my favorite rappers. Still doesn’t mean Russ is wrong.
Big facts. Truth hurts. And these rappers know the drugs are for marketing.
@Blockaye the 1st imagine protecting a whole genre which has inspired millions of people to take drugs and do voilence in a youtube arguement.
Amazing video!
He elevates my mind set to new wave lengths.
Never heard of him, and he's right about every point criticized!
Never heard of him?? What wait you been under a rock these last 2,3 yrs
@@holdmyweight3597 I think so. He's good though.
@@ADGBeats your beats are trash
I once vomited on my step mom thank you
He violated😂😂😂 "i was talking about anyone who made wack beats so if u responded im assuming u think u make wack beats" ouch
Everyone is just sensitive about how they got their success and hate the fact that someone got what they have by themselves. And even more success.
MARS Valdez exactly
Mars Valdez nah he’s just a dick
@@imspoon7188 why??
I’m Spoon for speaking facts ?
@@theaitokyo People from New York and New Jersey are dicks for no reason. Russ really thinks he's better than everybody.
Only in rap music can people hate a guy who tells the truth and promotes positivity 😭
i did not even know about all the hate i just listen to everyone regardless if i like the music im bumping to it simple.
Shawn got on genius without even droppin the rnb album smh
Nú Noia i was waiting on this
Love him or hate him
He's speaking facts
Self made rapper with talent he winning tho. Russ all day baby 🙏
MY G SHAWN CEE
He's literally speaking the truth. Just when people feelings get hurt, they don't like that.
response at 2:51 was genuinely hysterical. I'm not super into rap so idk the nuances of the backlash, but from what i see here, it feels like he's speaking truth and people just don't like hearing it because they see their life reflected in it and they know he's right
Great content
Just like what the great Muhammad Ali said before "It's hard to be humble, when you're as great as I am."
Russ is a truly talented artist. A one man band. We just need to give him more respect he deserve.
He is from Atlanta.... 🤦♂️
I'm from Jersey, please keep him in Atlanta. We don't want him
I'm only here because of memes kind of like the way NYC doesn’t want Jersey?
@@Mainzeption I assume you're from New York?
Originally from New Jersey
And?
Gained respect for Genius and Russ from this, great video!!
He’s just being real and truthful
Seen russ at staple center one of the best shows I been to
He ain't wrong with the drugs thing he's very straightforward about it a bit too much that people think he's got no sympathy
Jacques looks like such a nice guy and a good friend to have fr fr
Good video !
NO WAY SHAWN CEE MADE IT ON HERE! MY BOY IM PROUD OF YOU!
"vitriol" new word learned today
People just cant handle with a humble honest guy
This video introduced this guy to me . I'm going to follow him .
Praise the lord another intellectual
He’s cockiness is okay, we just often pick and chose who can say what and when. Mohamed Ali is the cockiest guy ever but it’s over looked. We just pick and choose who to go at.
well said
Muhammad was *respectful to people. Russ isn't. We don't pick and choose anything, Russ is just tone deaf and unlikeable
You guys realize the dead people y’all defending would be here if Russ or anyone else for that matter got this same message across? Why u think half these dead rappers started in the first place
Hell no. Russ is a mediocre rapper who tries to act woke about shit. Russ trying to put a right message with below mediocre bars who just has some cringe ass bars which makes people not take him that serious. Like stfu
@@furiouskenneth9471 you seem furious kenneth. opinions dont matter only facts do. and your claims are all opinions boi. you not even replying to what kindred hammer had to say, just attacking the strawman you envy so much. stop being a hater just because you hate to look in the mirror. honestly kids these days are sad af, we dont need assholes like you making it worse. you have been warned - az
Furious Kenneth lol you’re mad bc it’s true. when y’all sheep gonna realize rapping bout drugs and lean is so overplayed and dumb asf for their audiences. then bitch and moan when the rapper dies or someone who was a fan dies 😂
Furious Kenneth I take it one of your favourite artists has died from drugs 😂
@@furiouskenneth9471 I agree. Russ is painfully average.
Dope shirt, where did you get it
I just like Russ because he does everything by himself. Something I wish I could do.
He's just true to things, thats why others hate him. But because of that, i love russ💖
"Im 14 and this is deep ."
Support and respect for Russ for being courageous.
This really elevated my mindset
Imagine being a grown man and listening to Russ
So who do you listen to ?

Talking or rapping

he's throwing some game out, too. I dont care if he's hated, he just keeps pumping out good music.
Never thought I’d see a video title with the words Russ and love in it
When guap said we hear you trying to help we just don’t care, that right there is why nothing in this world, and the industry has changed 🤦🏾♂️
Damn
Lol is hating Russ still a thing?
Apparently
IKR sooo 2016-17
Why is it a thing?
Fuck I hate this ignorance
Well, we love to hate Russ. Simple!
Lol Russ is still making music?
Dude your jumper is fire.

luis rdz he deleted the post I think. idk he probably got hate from it
Russ better than everybody they talking about.. He talks about real problems.. How could you hate that
Because he's overly abrasive about the problems he talks about
Marcel Gordon Abrasive= He speaks the truth...truthfully? Without sugar coating? I see why people don’t like him. Everyone’s super sensitive 😂
Marcel Gordon yeah bro your just a little bitch
Up until this video, I never heard of Russ, but based on what I've just watched... he gained one more supporter.
I just became a russ fan! He is shooting all the right brazen truth , mad respect
He can talk about rappers because he is one, he can talk about producers because he is one. Arrogance is nothing new in Hip-Hop, he's just showing it with "class" instead of drugs, tattoos, jewelry, guns, etc.
This world hates on confident people like Russ and Kanye West....I guess that's what happens when you place a lion in a sheep's house
Real talk
@@bosslosox5 thanks thanks 😅
At least Ye has the talent to back it up
@@burkaysahin1934 Russ is too underrated
You can't put those too in the same vein at all Russ is overly cocky not confident ye has the talent to be confident and is doing more for the community of rap and the black community other than just saying the issues with it
A) He's Straight Forward
B) Spittin' FAXXX
Y’all can’t tell me he don’t put out quality music tho. Favorite song of him “Losing Control” ever since then I been a fan.
Russ is talented he just need to hire someone to talk for him cus he don’t know how to
lmfaoo
🤣🤣🤣 facts
Nah you a pussy getting offended about another man's opinion. It really says more about you then Russ.
Duncan Coetzee just unnecessary and irrelevant
Nobody bashed Ice T in the 80s when he made songs about bashing gangs and drugs
forreal bro
Russ a real one yo ☝🏼
what he's got and very few others in the industry is 'Confidence' and 'Clarity'. and others who don't got that, hate on him for having those qualities.
*Love him or hate him but you can't deny that he's talented!*
I personally haven’t enjoyed one song from this man but that’s my opinion
