With both Hex One and 5th Element being huge fans of Big Pun, Deep Cover '14 was born out of admiration, celebration, and as a tribute to his life and musical impact. In 2007 as part of his first mixtape, 5th Element remixed the song Twinz adding his own beat to the classic song. It seemed only right for Hex to do the same in some way by instead "remixing" the lyrics. He takes on the task of using not only the same rhyme scheme but also the same rhymes but with completely different words! The result is a refreshing new take on a lyrical benchmark set by one of the illest to ever do it. R.I.P. Christopher Lee Rios AKA Big Pun.
Lyrics written and performed by Hex One
Beat Produced by 5th Element
Hex One is one member of the rap duo Epidemic recently cosigned by Talib Kweli, Vinnie Paz, Rittz and R.A The Rugged Man for winning 2nd place in R.A's Definition of a Rap Flow contest. Tek-nition (the other member) won 5th place among 1000+ entries. 5th Element is the producer of Epidemic's debut album "Illin Spree" released in 2011.
Special thanks to the homie Dj Rawwk for helping us film!
Hologramz coming soon!!
I think some peeps don't understand the great level of ingenuity that went into this track. Hex didn't just recite the lyrics Pun and Joe wrote like any other copycat would. He actually went a step further. If you listen closely, he tried to stay as close to the source material as possible by maintaining the same/similar rhyme schemes and patterns while using different lyrics. It's what Mos Def did with Children's Story on the Black Star album. That shit ain't no easy task but he executed it damn near perfectly. It's even more amazing considering how lyrically intricate Pun's parts on Twinz (Deep Cover '98) are
+TimelessBeatz it's fuckin nuts dude. I love Pun and Joe and the first time I heard this I was hooked forever.
exactly, insane track
Crazy track! Gotta love that Paul Mauriat sample they chopped too, sounds sick!
3 Memphis Kniccas - Bone Diss 1 and 2.
CORC I know right! only noticed after a couple of times listening to it as he was rapping big puns lyrics popped into my head and it matched perfectly I was mindblown!
One of the best demonstrations of lyrical ability. EVER. Hex didn't have to quit. He gave up on it too quickly. This sort of ability is undeniable even in today's climate
He's one of my favourite so thats sad to hear(im old and nowhere near up to date). guess you only get paid these days if you use auto tune and all that shit... Hope he's doing well.
@@Muzik-kq3thhe needs to come back 💔
I was wondering what happened to him. I didn't realise he had quit. That's genuinely sad to hear. He's been my favourite lyricist ever since he and Tek dropped Illin Spree. I hope they make a comeback and finally get the recognition they deserve.
Ah man that's sad. Was going through 1000s of old mps last night and was reminded about him. Absolute monster.
Hex One is rhyming like 10 words every line in every song and his message couldn't be stronger.
No emcee in history can match his advanced, godly concentrated long multi rhyme schemes.
GOAT!
He's incredible
Eminem??
@@Euoplocephalus2003. Em is better 😂
@@ishaking6278 Rino kills Eminem in his sleep bro😂😂😂. Emma-Nem is a grain of sand in comparison.
@@Euoplocephalus2003. Eminem > Rino, and I'm dead serious at this point, cause this is a fact, and it can be %100 proven after that garbage Eminem diss that Rino put out. Even MGK put out better diss.
what the fuck... I stumbled upon his "peep the steeze" track and due to autoplay I suddenly hear this track whilst rolling..something.. and at first I was like:" wait what.. I don't know this track, but this flow.. someone....somewhere... *humming big puns flow..*-noodles shoot that fucking whore - dead in the middle of little Italy little did we know we riddled to middlemen who didn't do diddly!! Wow man, good job - you did that shit so well... the lyrics literally came to me! Insane stuff man
Haha that's a super dope way for it to hit you man. One love. Surprisingly not many people really caught the concept of this joint like that
Seventschiko hi
Appreciate it, can't believe how underground you are, it's sad what happened to hiphop. If you even wanna call "new school" hip hop . I mean obviously there are good artists around but the mainstream is littered with garbage and stuff like this track here is sitting on 97k views. Huh? Like what? I don't get it, this is not only insanely hard to pull of, paying tribute in the way you did - staying original and still pay homage to the original rhyme scheme and flow ON A DIFFERENT BEAT, but you murder every track I hear you on. I mean.. how are you only known by hip hop fanatics. Love your icon rap as well, I hope you're good man - would love to spark a jay in Switzerland with you one day bro. Hope you're touring, your yt hella quiet. one love. keep it up - you're actually a prophet of real rap.
Hex is so fucking slept on, do you understand how genius he is?
If you can't recognize the briliiance of those lyrics you ain't Hip Hop.
Hex, come back.
helladope crazy rhyme schemes on this. straight flipping Pun's style! Hex is a beast
Beast mode.
"And on the 8th day God created Hex One"
Love this quote
He needs to be resurrected
ahhhh 2015 if i could only go back some goood times
14 #derp
This is an absolute masterpiece
Yep quality
How this only got 96k views, been listening to hip hop since The Show - Doug E Fresh and this is up there with the best Ive heard
yep I think the artists themselves are a little disappointed aswell, to put it lightly. They haven't been releasing in a while.
hex one , r.a the rugged man , and A-F-R-O should do an album together , block mcloud on the hooks , snowgoons, mr green , and dj premier on the beats , would be tight .
Dopeness! Support the homies
Rest in Paradise Big Pun, Hip Hop is in good grips!
0:15 hex rocking da shogunz t shirt! sick. a collab needs to happen!
so true! 2 of the best crews nowadayz!!
Joint is fucking fire! Hell of a tribute.
A Propo '88 produced Epidemic album would be insane.
stuckyrini pheeeeewwww that would. Sick that's how I felt when I saw the shirt...real recognize real
big pun flow.
tha godddd Hex you a monster bro... hip hop is grateful for your presence b
Lyrics:
Verse 1
I'm keeping raw 5th I need you to hold these glocks
I got these forty shots loaded for the phonies that these shorties clock
It's better you run to confront us is deadly
The ones that's fronting like dealers we drill and kill 'em with guns and machetes
Everyone on top sock their jaws if they're hot drop their scores
Rock their broads make their b****es drop their drawers
Shredding your bread with this metal jittery beretta it'll be
Letting the settled lead embed in your head and kidney kid
I see you broke players trail with the pace of snails
The cake you make is stale my mental weight could break the scale
I'll give you f****t n****s something great and afterwards you suffer fate
I'm asthma for the rappers that I suffocate
I'll subjugate you with words and urge the fact that we ill
With the tracks that we kill reverse the birth of like half of these children
The raps that we're skilled in are fulfilling the mass appeal
And the answer be the factory that my faculty's building
The illest without applause you spit it without a cause
'Cause you without a gimmick's like a prison without no bars
Of course these false enemies get snuffed chemically
With these drugs like crushed ecstasy this melody gets buzzed
We clutch triggers precisely gun slingers with gloves
Leave you thugs riddled with slugs 'cause these bugged n****s is shiesty
Despite thieves we don't let 'em gain an inch
If you ain't paid and rich already we cant make no cheddar with'cha
Stick ya with a tax to surpass the ignorance you brung
I sprung to write this scripture with the influence of Pun
F**k rules we moving with a plan to attack fools
So thats cue to do this s**t so fluid that its taboo ask who
Ever the Hex don't sweat it collecting these checks for credit
Treading on this quest for the lettuce and it's
Chorus
Yea and you don't stop
Penny stocks drop 'cause this hot spitter's thriller's finna drop
Yea and you don't stop
Hex will rock the spot while 5th L gets the drums chopped
Yea and you don't stop
We getting props heavy my squad's ready to flood your whole block
Yea and you don't stop
Until that one day when these pop m***********s flop
Verse 2
Guzzle OE's to ease thirst making speech burst
Raping each verse with force I'm slaughtering your weak words
You bleed worse disperse the shells I wrote for these irons
My poetry's science I see the scope through both of these eyes
Devising a plan I want lands that stretch with murals
Just being this thorough could hurl some sweepers to either commit to kill
Or blow the steel with ill drums to fit the sequence
Feasting this whole season my n***a 5th will flip the script and
Tweak the frequency as I move through your speakers
Fry your fuse box if you try to tune your receiver
Slip the mask on if cats want beef speak
The gat's long and at arm's reach plus I'm rolling with my folks
So the phillies might flare pass it to the rear
And blow the smoke through the city night's air
So prepare your prayer for when I unleash this young beast
And make you leak blood these cuts get deep
I snuff beats my rugged steeze leaves your whole contraption broke in pieces
Vocals blasting thrashing with a focused team of rogue assassins
Even god knows to not be reckless he exits
When a scheme flexes try to test and leave breathless
We eat your breakfast yo my dogs get them dollars
Get us pissed off we'll rip your ears apart until you're dead in silence
You'll get demolished with a hot round without the pop
When shots sound and the D's wouldn't name me if I got found
We rock styles for crowds in the basements
Until my foundation gets shine I'll thrust lines
My designs align divine forces for sport
Every thought gets caught in short paragraphs
Of very sharpened darts that spray like a derringer
It took ten seconds to pen your death's letter son I'm the editor
We dismember you frauds just for stepping if bullets
Spit through my message I'll clutch the trigger 'til you start regressing
Chorus
Yea and you don't stop
Penny stocks drop 'cause this hot spitter's thriller's finna drop
Yea and you don't stop
Hex will rock the spot while 5th L gets the drums chopped
Yea and you don't stop
We getting props heavy my squad's ready to flood your whole block
Yea and you don't stop
Until that one day when these pop m***********s flop
Yea and you don't stop
Penny stocks drop 'cause this hot spitter's thriller's finna drop
Yea and you don't stop
Hex will rock the spot while 5th L gets the drums chopped
Yea and you don't stop
We getting props heavy my squad's ready to flood your whole block
Yea and you don't stop
Until that one day when these pop m***********s flop
