we need an EarlChemist album 🙌
Exactly 🔥🔥
That should actually be the name of da album like "Alfredo"
Hell yeah
Please Lord make Earlchemist happen
Noo change the name that sounds horrible
The sample has an air of victory to it, and then it’s immediately subverted by Earl’s voice to make something that emanates feelings of victory from a wounded man.
TLDR: This shit slaps.
Its that 3 am roadwork mentality. Getting ready for fight night. You know what I mean 🥊🥊
actual art interpretation in the comments, very wicked
Perfect description
Wow thats so deep maaaaaaaan
You sad and depressed all the time - Earl sweatshirt
"Peek in the orbs. Speak on what I absorb. Observed boundaries, I found a different route to explore."
insane
And run around deep
These two bars alone require a lifetime to digest and synthesize into something real, and boy is it real. If you know, you know.
@@el_mal_de_ojo what does he mean by Peek in the orbs ?
@@b47ancevic53 in the bars before that he's talking about how he's approached the top of the rap game (the peak) but it wasn't inspiring him anymore (didn't feed him) so he had to get a feel for the whole thing (presumably, the different corners of the rap game but also more broadly referring to experiencing all that life has to offer, highs and lows, and how it's all beneficial). Peek in the orbs, as I understand it in context, means 'look into my eyes' and is asking whoever is peeking to describe what they're seeing, what Earl has 'absorbed' from his experiences, to describe what he knows. This plays into the line of finding a different route to explore and run around deep - he made his own path through life, and it took him to dark places from which he's come out of. "I had a bad bout with grief and I tossed a match on it" alludes to this as well - he obliterated the bad state he was in
man this lyricism is so hard to explain, its like these words belong next to each other and the horns are there to cheer them on
You said it right
Dope.
you riding a nice warm sunset wave bruh maybe we'll cross paths when our wavelengths plateau together
Probably the best way to put it
This was the gayest bs statement I have ever heard, his lyricism is trash, he's saying nice things, that isn't being lyrical. Old Earl used to actually have good lyrical bars.
YOU BE WITH THE BOYS AND I BE WITH THE DOGS!!!!
It's spelled dawgs

Bruh where is nak? Time stamp
@@taradesmond3487 0:15 he introduced Earl
I love how earl rap now cause it forces you to focus on his words and the beat separately. You can't just nod your head aimlessly to the beat and halfway listen to what he got to say. Lowkey genius if that's the case.✊🏾🔥
he raps like a spoken word poet on some def poetry jam shit
YAH BUT THIS WAS MID, All 4 Songs I dropped in the last month in a half are harder ALL than this!
@@lilsavdabest bro, after listening to what the fuck you got going on, they are not harder. that shit actually makes me laugh, I could freestyke a song better than your whole discography
@@lotusberry725 I could record my snoring and it'd be better than any song he'd ever release😭
@@jbslump ong 😭😂😂
Am I the only one that feel like Earl and Mac would’ve destroyed this together
Yeah he would’ve
Hell yea
They got an unreleased track
Nah, you not the only one
Not particularly
I love how it’s been 3 years and Earl hasn’t disappeared
our boy is finally outside for good :D
word bro. hes been pretty consistent the last few yrs. its dope
He told us he was in it for the long run
he found a different route to explore and run around deep
He’s past his cicada stage
Earl has swag that most people can’t comprehend yet
Facts man his style light years ahead
FR FR.. what kicks he had on?
As in drip or music wise?

[Intro: Earl Sweatshirt]
(Back with my people)
Uh
Yo, yo, yeah
Uh, uh, yeah, yeah
[Verse: Earl Sweatshirt]
You be with the boys and I'ma be with the dawgs
Blood on the Travies, it serve as a challenge coin
I'm the voice, I had to speak for the org, pastor, preacher
Smashed up weed on the organ, master teachings
Actually couldn't hold me (Who's gonna stop me?)
I was hungry
Mama made her son read, so I'm hunting glances 'til the peak
That still didn't feed me
I had to get a feel for the whole thing
Peek in the orbs, speak on what I absorb
Reserved boundariеs, I found a different route to еxplore and run around deep
I told you 'bout the reaching, you found out and screamed, that sound to me like a loss
I had a bad bout with grief and I tossed a match on it
Kerosene, burned the ring down to ashes
And memories, feather feet behind
And ahead of the beat, throwing 'em off
Arriving in the nick of time
[Chorus]
These niggas nickel and diming
I'm giving 'em five and sliding, my way up the street
Pretty penny, you my luckiest find, skin copper
Titties bouncing, save a generous slice for me
Please (I need a piece of this, about this small)
Please, save a generous slice for me
Change jingling in my pocket
These niggas nickel and diming
I'm giving 'em five, pretty penny, you my luckiest find, skin copper
Titties bouncing, save a generous slice for me
(Please, please, please, please)
had to restart the song to rap along with the words
we really growing up with earl, and seeing him evolve. shit beautiful 🥲
Bro it’s a blessing to be alive same time as Earl. I was born in ‘96 so definitely grew up on his music🙏
YAH BUT THIS WAS MID, All 4 Songs I dropped in the last month in a half are harder ALL than this!

Earl Sweatshirt : smashed up weed on the organ / Master teachings👏🏿👏🏿🤺
Alchemist is a fucking legend, nice to see him still making tracks
Both earl and alchemist making tracks together is a dream. Every one of their songs together are great.

I feel like earl never messes up when he records he just goes in and does one take and calls it a day
Most likely
He a human and probably makes mistakes like everybody else
We need to stop deifying artists like they are perfect , it's unfair to them expectation wise
@@christianhuertas7774 lmao it was a joke bro
@@prod.wetcurl7720 jokes can perpetuate harmful ideas 🤷🏻♂️
@@christianhuertas7774 the only idea i perpetuated is that hes talented asf..which most people would probably agree
Al in the stands supporting Earl is the most wholesome thing i've seen today
@@pffft5679 no way really???
The sweetest part is the video shows how much it means to him. Everybody else is like mannequins
@@pffft5679 you’re blowing my mind i don’t believe you
@@beckettstevens9529 wow
Earls next album is gonna be his best im calling it now
Over the self titled "Earl"?
@Hollow Vegeta² tripping, Srs was fire
It better be because I haven't been 100% impressed so far overall, not saying he's bad at all But I want to be blown away & hear a full strong album with no skips. Hope Al produces some of it.
@dylan murphy have you not heard FEET OF CLAY
How is this 2yrs old legit feels like yesterday 😂
"Earl is not my name, the world is my Domain"
"Peace to every crease in your brain"
*KID*
he said that on this as well
it rhymes yeah but what makes it quotable?
@@ICA_Ghost my thoughts exactly
DOOM may be gone, but he lives on in EARL ✊🏾
Agree Brother
ONG
I was thinking the same thing lmao
Not even close
Earl is a huge DOOM fan so yeah
Earls Rhinestone Cowboy, just going off the whole “audience” vibe
Wow never saw it like that, so true !!!
This man already had a unique style of wordplay and made a another one IMO
SAVE A GENEROUS SLICE FOR ME
PLEASE
PLEEEEASSEEEE

Earls voice exudes triumph in this one, like he made it to the end of some dark tunnel
Exactly!! It’s so victorious. “Had a bad bout with grief and I tossed a match on it, kerosine..” my favorite verse
👉 th-cam.com/video/iFpjW1eibWI/w-d-xo.html 🔥🔥
Most of us lost hope in the new generation of rap, but Earl and Al keeping it alive
🌲💨
Love Al in the dummy audience at the end. Him approving Earl's performance means so much like.. you nailed this and kept your eyes on the prize. Earl has Al's approval.. Nuff said!
Chills.
it's even better when you consider how long theyve been working together to my recollection elimination chamber off of Domo Genesis's No Idols mixtape was their first collaboration and it's been nothing but art since then. my favorite being 45
"Behind and ahead of the beat"
Best rapper alive
R.I.P. DOOM
Was this a DOOM ref?
@@MrWatts-dz6fb yes
@@MrWatts-dz6fb Nah, the lyric isn't a ref
Just wanted to shout out DOOM lol
@@andrewbalaguer Respect 🙏🏾 All Caps 💯
@@MrWatts-dz6fb It ain't the same without him
But Earl's carrying the torch knamean
I know Earl has tons of fans and gets so much love, but I still get the vibe that most people don’t realize how amazing what he’s doing really is, especially recently. He’s an absolute linguistic wizard, but it doesn’t seem like he cares about having to prove that anymore, so he spits at a level of nonchalant wisdom that nobody else really matches, and sometimes he makes it look so easy that people don’t notice. Truly the Buddha of the rap game
That’s it, that’s the truth
That’s all we needed
Your comment deserves to be TH-cam hall of fame. When the mic is recording Earl begins levitating, “on-the-fly rhymes” as I call it. Poetry.
@@nogloryent.8185 corny
He following in his pop footsteps & stayin true to the goal he set for himself.
I can’t speak for my mans, but remaining enigmatic seems to be the road he chose.
That of the hermit.
The villain.
Spot on
Bruh. Earl is God-tier.
The beat almost teases you and makes you want more and Earl gives you more than you thought you needed on every line.
“I had a bad bout with grief, I threw a match on it” SPEAK TO EM EARLY MAN
🔥🔥🔥🔥 yesss
“It’s been a minute since I heard applause”
"Sitting on a star thinking how i'm not a star, just can't call it dogs"
i think about this all the time especially when he was the special guest at flognaw a handful of years ago, he hadn’t been seen inna few years at that point.
Wait when did earl say that?
@@yvercastillo6754 it’s on a song i think off “some rap songs”
It was on Veins off some rap songs
Bro Earl is actually talking HEAVY shit but with cadence. He seems chill but it's almost as if he's at ease with what not controlled just throwing perspective on what has occurred and what he see's around him.
Al is one of the best producers in all of music, and I'll keep saying it til I die
"the rest of the plan got scrapped when i landed invested in arts"
I do less when I stretch before I hit the bar
Pull up, Tan Cress' on the shoulder of the coat of arms
Double back when you got it made
30 racks of weed, no fat in the collard greens
Told you we the best 'til we good and gone
@@budisilaban7044 off top was me no cap i don’t bottle thangz
This is one of the best Earl music videos
Yes

nahhhh prolly Hive. this up there tho
Lonewolf is a god
@@dahotboycj8148 I think grief is the best
“Had a bad bout with grief and I tossed the match on the kerosene burn the ring down to ashes... the memories”
Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the contender for the the top spot that was once filled by the amazing MF DOOM. After a brief abstract period of extreme experimentation, the Sweatshirt returns with a power track worthy of the rapp godds. RIP Dumile
If this album doesnt happen soon I will die.
I’m hoping for either Earlchemist of AlcheMarci
Me too bro
It’ll be called “Brad Pitt “
@@RC-ok3wl where'd u get that info from?
@@Jaymo_G59 Brad Pitt
“Feather feet behind, and ahead of the beat, throwin em off, arriving in the nick of time”
This was the hardest bar IMO!
Insane 🔥🔥🔥
That’s the hardest part 😤
I never got that 1st verse until recent, but he explains his whole childhood and development as an artist, its really crazy listening in
3 years later I still have not got fed up with this song. I think it actually gets better with time
“I had bad bout with grief and I tossed a match on it, kerosine, burned the ring down to ashes” this verse mannn
Alchemist: no more gloominess and please, be happy!
Earl: ummm okay i’ll try my best
Boo
I honestly don’t know a rapper that really touches earl in technique. How he perfectly flow on a beat like this with such an insane rhyme scheme, and also pack his lyrics with such meaning. U can vibe to this or focus in and both takes are masterpieces.
Not to hate on Earl at all (he's actually part of this group) but his recent work has been heavily influenced by the Slums collective. I would highly recommend checking out MIKE who's arguably been the reason for Earl's style for the past few years :)
@@SmasterThaMaster dw my friend i beeeen tapped into slums. Dem man are legendary. Earl influenced more by their production and overall sound cos thass where they are pioneers. Nun of em touchin earls lyrical prowess cos he been in the game since so young. He influenced the slums bois in terms of the ways they write and subject matter. Cool to see the back and forth inspiration
I want a new Earl album with nothing but production from the alchemist
The flow is tooo buttery
We need an alc and earl tape
i will forever be an earl sweatshirt fan. his music has evolved so much over the years but his unique sound and style is still there man
I love him and his style but think it’s time to evolve again. Don’t want him to end up as an underground rapper with 4+ albums with this esoteric, poetic jazz
@@CharlieCoops best part is that his career isn’t up to you. he can do whatever he wants regardless of your or my opinion.
@@LiveYourLife229 and that’s the truth
@@LiveYourLife229 📠
love to see earl growth as a human being as well as an artist, truly matured into a beautiful human being
Love the retro effects thrown in the mix. Visuals are dope asf in general.
No fancy, catchy trap beats, just a simple jazz instrumental with fully loaded rhymes.
Earl is the best member of Odd Future, still raps this hard till this day
True but my boy Frank Ocean is a close second
Dudes been MIA for way too long
@@hasanz7585 Tyler, Earl, Then Frank that's how it should always be but Earl should be number 1 as well...
Earl went for rhymes, Tyler went for sounds, Syd went for both. The others idk
@@xRand0mHero not really cause Tyler bringing back his rap ability which is dope asf Earl just be moaning on the beat but his latest song with the alchemist is fire asf
@@roamfoam9653 srs is his best album tho.
STANDING ON THE TOP LIKE WE READY FOR THE DROP 😭😭⬇️
You be with the boys and Ima be with the dogs is a crazy ass opening line 😮💨
Earls rapping has got so much emotion and heart it’s more than just bars and heat
Hi ! I have link for you . I am Horrny ? From slovakia . With love
My new favorite song!
The Earl era I loved the most was "wind in my sails" "mirror" "45", the same vibe as this one, I'm so happy 😭
Respect sir, them tracks are killer!
This tape is a blessing ✊🏿
Earl went from rapping on GarageBand beats to working with the Alchemist. Legend
I'm sure I'm not the only one who had to play it back like 6 times just to get the full feel for my man's words
not alone there homie
When earl drop it literally makes my soul happy bruh

Been a good ride isn't it?
If you haven't heard it you should check out EARL.
@@leogg1402 man i remember that run OF had .. they came a long way since the ass milk days & its dope.
My favorite OF album so far is No Idols by Domo & ALC, Domo Genesis could've went places with his talent...
@@upclosenpersonal100 bruh Domo was heat Under The Influence was dope
I like how Na-kel introduced earl before he started spittin dat juss shows u never switch up on tha ppl u call friends💯💯‼️
Earl does not drop music nearly enough. Arguably the best of his contemporaries.
love this project so much such a blessing rn, yo imagine if they announce a earl alc project in this video🙇♂️
Lol I was shol tryna read the posters at the end for dates 👀 but I'm happy with all they've given and patiently await to be grateful for any more gifts
I was a old earl sweatshirt fan then I stop listening to him,but today after I just smoked and hear this song I'm truly at awe at just how talented earl is.
His stories are breath-taking,He has his own flow,ignoring what would match the beat;my God im still figuring out different things from just this one song...BRB. must replay
"these ....... Nickel and dimein (diamond?)/ I'm giving em 'five' and sliding, my way up the street/(loose change, found on the ground?) Pretty penny you my luckiest find..." Damn Earl, bars.
Alc and earl give me madvillain vibes, we need an album from both for real 💯
Would be a classic, possibly along the lines.
this feels like his rhinstone cowboy
with the applause and the mellow but victorious vibes
Earl and Lonewolf never disappoint 🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Mama made a son read, so I'm hunting glancing to the peak, that still didnt feed me. I had to get a feel for the whole thing"
Now thats deep bruh
Alchemist and Earl make a legendary combination! Loved this
So crazy i barely know bout earl sweatshirt but hearing this this and nobles made me a fan
Check out E Coli with Earl and Al.
and wind in my sails!!!
@@feelaway4297 especially wind in my sails!!!
My fav track is Hive. He was clear and flowed crazy on that joint
LoneWolf has evolved so much wow
His videos are insane
- I love the one he did for Boldy, Al, and Vince
th-cam.com/video/3kZnnaKCs2Q/w-d-xo.html
Ima get this to a million myself if y’all don’t
It feels like the beat is about to drop throughout the entire song and I love that
Ayo Al Chemist you're the illest Bro
Two geniuses, simple as that
I've been following earl since 2010 and I love this phase! Earl is eternal
Downloaded the entire album and I have no regrets. Definitely deserves a Grammy Nomination
Earl the hardest lyricist in the game rn. Hands Down
the way he says “the ni**as nickel and dimin’ is so clean
He actually said nggs nickel and dimin
Alchemist doesn't let up. This dude puts out so much heat with so many great artist....earl, freddie, bronson...etc.
first earl and alc song i ever heard. hooked ever since! much love to them and sage, MIKE, wik, medhane, westside gunn, benny the butcher & boldy!! 🔥
This shit is hard Earl sounding way more energetic and full of life. Looking forward to what’s cooking 💯🔥
lone wolf is a genius. inspires me so much
My Guy I been listening since Sly Tendencies .. ❤🇿🇦
One of the best producers in The Alchemist and one of the best rappers in Earl perfect combo.
I understand but just can't comprehend his flow, it's a masterpiece. 🔥
Covina my hometown & Earl sweatshirt my fav rapper = instant classic
Yo same bro, thought I was trippin when I saw the sign
I love his unorthodox rhymes so much 💙
One of the best songs on the project, two of the best to ever do it 🔥 would love to hear al produce a full album for Earl
Gonna be heat again
Can we all admit earl is basically the deadbeat father of the rap game
drake tho
@@z39836 nah dead beat as in mans don’t take his career seriously and push out much content for his fans whilst drake is the opposite
@@Leoneligy drake? opposite? we talking bout the same drake? drizzy drake? 300 song albums drake? doesnt write his own bars drake? hasnt cared about quality since 2015 drake?
Lmao nigga pop up when he want to
That will always be Jay Electronica.
YES. Earl always dropping truth
Nice to see earl is happy this song sorta help me have a nice day
"..You found out and screamed, that sound to me like a loss.
I had a bad bout with grief and I tossed a match on the kerosene.."
