+Immortal Technique this whole song, RA's verse is hard to understand, 6ut once u get it, it's hard to choose who killed the song, they 6oth went in with a "masterpiece" mindset
Real Hip Hop still exist, just not on the radio. Long live REAL Hip Hop and brothas' like these cats spittin' rhymes that mean something and makes you think. Keep it up fellas!!!
The fact that RA is on this track tells you everything that you need to know. The GOAT himself acknowledged another legend, Locksmith and recorded this 🔥🔥
"Laws of Religion caused the hoards of division, Doors of admission causin infliction inscription like the walls of egyptians, Paint a portrait like the lord and the christians, Taint and altered his pigment, False depiction got us all in the prison But it aint no god in the system, can't evolve in conditions, Where they write me off for being off and left my thoughts in partition bitchin, Often would grapple tackle this road to no progression, Claimin you atheist but still worship your possessions, Ground broke with a downstroke and a noun spoken to town folk, Scrounge dope with a pound rope where they found no amount floats, Sex trafficin out the Vatican rather than found hope, Profound smoke for burnin, oh chyou thought they found a new pope, Black chemical signified, the simple lies, the massive rallies, Screen shot of a rap blog saw the image of Alex Rally, A massive tally I pass it barely i'm Makaveli, As strong as the purest dope of this rapper from out of Cali." ONE OF THE BEST VERSES I'VE EVER HEAR MAN. KEEP KILLIN THE GAME.
@@BrandonDiaz also "oaths" not "oh chuyou" , "scrounge for" not "scrounge dope".. To be honest there are so many mistakes that it would be easier to just write the correct whole verse. So yeah, correct lyrics: "Laws of religion cause the hoards of division, doors of admission Causing the friction, inscription like the walls of Egyptians Paint a portrait like the Lord of the Christians, taint and altered his pigment False depictions got us all in a prison But it ain't no God in this system, can't evolve in conditions Where they write me off as being off and left my thoughts in perdition, bitching Often would grapple, tackle this road to no progression Claiming you atheist but still worship your possessions Ground broke with a down stroke and a noun spoke And the town folk scrounge for an abound rope But they found no amount floats Sex trafficking out the Vatican rather than found hope Profound smoke from burning oaths you thought they found a new pope? Black chemicals signify the simple lies, the masses rally Screen shot of a rap blog, saw the image of Alex Crowley Amass the tally, I pass it barely, I'm Makaveli That's strong as the purest dope or this rapper from outta Cali"
man having these two guys rhyming as sick and powerfully as they do , is like having Kool g rap and Big daddy kane in their prime trading rhymes, amazing lyricism, extreme multisillabyc skills mad crazy flows what the fuck else could we possibly ask for?
Spot on. Saw Locksmith's freestyle on teambackpack, heard him drop RA's name... a quick TH-cam search later and I'm listening to this mindblowing track. Glad to say I just stumbled upon another genius to listen to.
I think this is the only collaboration R.A. has done wherein he actually gets outmatched. Usually his verses are superior, but I think this is the one exception.
Don't get me wrong Locksmith does have a nice flow on this song,but he also had two verses vs Ra one verse.So compairing Locksmith two verses vs Ra verse imo I still think Ra had him personally.
Ra got it, he spazzed the fuck out. But, the fact that it is even a debate shows that Lock ain't nothin to fuck with. RA's flow is just on a whole different level that just can't be matched when he's on his game.
I miss this type of rap...when u have to actually listen to enjoy it...Lock is so underrated because he don't sell out. You got a fan here forever homie, if u ever release an album know at least I'm bumping somewhere in the world
No matter how old locks videos are it sounds like a song that could be played new today. One of the cleanest lyricist in the game, this guy should be famous...
You ain't kiddin! (Immortal Technique)... I had ta replay it just ta hear him reslay it! N that says alot coming from me cause Im a big R.A fan... Lockz already earned his spot with yall to me as one of tha greatz!
A 6 min remix track w/ 16 bars back to back of Locksmith, RA The Rugged Man, Diabolic, Chino XL, Immortal Technique, , Tech N9ne, Vinnie Paz, Canibus and Chris Rivers as an anchor .. damn thatd be legendary
i swear to god RA has the best stamina out of any rapper, the guy doesnt breath from the beginning till the end of his damn verse, this song is literally the best fucking thing ive ever heard.
if anyone does a track with Ra they will get murdered on there own track, yet locksmith from the beginning showed that he can not only rap at Ra's level but even better than him. Locksmith is slowly becoming one of my favorite rappers.
Steven Himlin I disagree. In my opinion R.A lyrical ability and what he was talking about was way above Talib Kweli. R.A was able to say more in a shorter time than Talib was able to.
EJK k i agree not only that but R.A has mad flow on any beat! like this dude can flow over a classic piece or whatever.. he is an amazing lyrical genius.. not gonna lie.. Locksmith did his best though.. but going up against a Rap God isnt easy.
This was about the first time someone outrhymed R.A. on a track. And in this case that says more aboout Locksmith than the legendary R.A.. Go on killing 'em, Locksmith!
@@sir3543 There's math to prove God's existance. I'm just saying. Ancient Math and Sacred Geometry are wonderful things. Instead of spewing stupidity based on your limited knowledge, go study those fields. You'll come to the same conclusion if you dig deep enough.
@@Phearsum There is math to prove God's existence? Oh my god. That is the funniest shit I have ever heard in my life. "Ancient math, sacred Geometry." Haha! I can't. Yeah sure, I'll believe some ancient fucking math and geometry from the same decade where people largely believed the earth was flat.
Now that’s an incredible track with R.A. I never heard before and I’m even happier learning about Locksmith. I’ll definitely check him out, only knew him from his hook in RAs last album. Brutally nice!
iamlocksmith: don't ever stop making music, your talent, vocabulary, word play, display, scheme, presentation, and delivery is immaculate and untouchable, thank you for making real music.
When I see locksmith the 1st thing that comes to mind is when he reduced dizaster to a choking act haha he's dope with his writtens as well as battle bars.
wtf locks last verse one of best ever..
It was interesting i have to say, nice profile
+Immortal Technique this whole song, RA's verse is hard to understand, 6ut once u get it, it's hard to choose who killed the song, they 6oth went in with a "masterpiece" mindset
read my comment up top
+Immortal Technique Truth spoken from one of the best I know to speak it.
+typedrew it's a fake account lol
Wow, this locksmith dude is the sickest guy i have heard in ages, and i've heard a lot of new guys lately
Lock been doing this since the early 2000s but he improved over the years.
Check Passionate MC, Hex One and A-F-R-O. They tear shit up. Also Mega EvErs is a local artist to me. He's dope too.
Yup, he goes in
Anthony Storms Passionate is the weakest out of those 3.
JediMindTricks183 Yeah I know. But there's no need to down play him. He's lyrically on point.
How I have never seen this before, what a collab. NIIIIICE
2 of the best!
One word son!!! NASTY!!
I never realized how much RA Locksmith has in him, 2 generations of sick bars
finally a battle rapper who can rap over a beat. locksmith is crazy lyrically
hes not a battle rapper?
check out wrekonize
he used to battle same with mac lethal. FUCK GRAMMAR
Frank Furter
yeah i know hes moved on to focusing on music which is great. he was a badass battle mc though
Well said! Writtens as well as battle bars
YourMothersBestFriend he is bro check him out
THIS NEEDS MORE VIEWS
locksmith. lyrical fucking genius that speaks his mind.
there aren't really words to describe how dope this is...
I was blown man. How come i never heard of Locksmith? This proves that the industry suck's ass. Period!
Said Ibrahim lad check out his battles. he's insane. proper emcee
Said Ibrahim Nah there will always be great artists. Who cares who the labels push. Support who you want we have the internet now.
This kind of music doesnt turn people into materialistic puppet slaves for green pieces of paper. We cant have people being intelligent now....
You have to embrace occult satanic agendas to be "industry". Cover one eye and cover yourself in blood.
I've heard of him before I think he did some shit with tech N9ne or someone in the underground but I've heard of locksmith
Damn Locks second verse blending with the beat gave me goosebumps...dang!
Battlerapper who actually got bangers luv it!
Real Hip Hop still exist, just not on the radio. Long live REAL Hip Hop and brothas' like these cats spittin' rhymes that mean something and makes you think. Keep it up fellas!!!
This was hard af!
The fact that RA is on this track tells you everything that you need to know. The GOAT himself acknowledged another legend, Locksmith and recorded this 🔥🔥
This needs a million views
"I'm the goat above Frasier, Norton, Foreman and Liston" crazy bars
i wanna see immortal technique with ra the rugged man and locksmith
that would be amazing, I rather see just tech and lock
Chino XL on something with these dudes! Or K-RINO! Both are wicked as well as others!
even throw tech n9ne in the mix
thanks
They are all MARTYRS! 🤗😎
'claiming you're an atheist but still worshipping your possessions''
SOLID TRACK FUCK
💯
Locksmith has got to be one of the top 5 lyricists in hip hop right now. Dude is unbelievable. He has fully mastered his craft.
Every aspect
"Laws of Religion caused the hoards of division,
Doors of admission causin infliction inscription like the walls of egyptians,
Paint a portrait like the lord and the christians,
Taint and altered his pigment,
False depiction got us all in the prison
But it aint no god in the system,
can't evolve in conditions,
Where they write me off for being off and left my thoughts in partition bitchin,
Often would grapple tackle this road to no progression,
Claimin you atheist but still worship your possessions,
Ground broke with a downstroke and a noun spoken to town folk,
Scrounge dope with a pound rope where they found no amount floats,
Sex trafficin out the Vatican rather than found hope,
Profound smoke for burnin, oh chyou thought they found a new pope,
Black chemical signified, the simple lies, the massive rallies,
Screen shot of a rap blog saw the image of Alex Rally,
A massive tally I pass it barely i'm Makaveli,
As strong as the purest dope of this rapper from out of Cali."
ONE OF THE BEST VERSES I'VE EVER HEAR MAN. KEEP KILLIN THE GAME.
'uncommon valor'... check it out.
I agree!
*perdition not partition
"Alex Crowley", not Rally
@@BrandonDiaz also "oaths" not "oh chuyou" , "scrounge for" not "scrounge dope".. To be honest there are so many mistakes that it would be easier to just write the correct whole verse.

The lyrical potency of Locksmith and RA is simply amazing
I think this is the only collaboration R.A. has done wherein he actually gets outmatched. Usually his verses are superior, but I think this is the one exception.
MinusxOne Honestly though? Locksmith is probably the best new hip-hop artist there is today. Watch his freestyles on Sway. Shits crazy!
Don't get me wrong Locksmith does have a nice flow on this song,but he also had two verses vs Ra one verse.So compairing Locksmith two verses vs Ra verse imo I still think Ra had him personally.
Locksmith's rhymes were more consistently themed and more coherent, in my opinion.
lyricalslonglost
you sir know what you are talking about :)
Ra got it, he spazzed the fuck out.
But, the fact that it is even a debate shows that Lock ain't nothin to fuck with. RA's flow is just on a whole different level that just can't be matched when he's on his game.
Came here for R.A., left with an another amazing rapper on my favorite list.
I always knew Locksmith would blow up. That boy got skillz!!!
you are so good that people cannot accept it or it hurts their head to fathom your greatness
Locksmiths coming to my town in less then a month :0 so excited
full body chills listening to this song.
"I don´t know what to say" Then says so many things that you get goosebumps. GREAT!!
R.A. never gets the credit he truly deserves.......just sayn
lyrically locksmith is one of the greatest. RA always spittin fire. This song is legendary, Respect from Australia
Dom K no problem
Just a couple of GOATs in an abandoned building.
Dope !!! Real emcees must cross borders !! Respect from Paris...
I wanna tanks Locksmith for saving rap!!
this is the first time I heard of locksmith this dudes style is on point for real im most deff a fan
Lyrical greatness.
One of the most underrated for sure damn
I miss this type of rap...when u have to actually listen to enjoy it...Lock is so underrated because he don't sell out. You got a fan here forever homie, if u ever release an album know at least I'm bumping somewhere in the world
And buyin the album to support him🙌🏼
No matter how old locks videos are it sounds like a song that could be played new today. One of the cleanest lyricist in the game, this guy should be famous...
This is Hip-hop!!! Nuff said!!!
Locksmith’s second verse is one of the best of all time. Simply incredible on multiple levels.
Rap ballads are in desperate need, he went like a guitar solo
locksmith is a freaking legend
Damn, RA is usually the one showing the other MCs up on verses. That was ill shit.
I'm so glad i stumbled across Locksmith he's definitely one of my favorite artists.
This is too ill man this song been on repeat for days
I agree this ain't rap its art!! Bless up!!!!
You ain't kiddin! (Immortal Technique)... I had ta replay it just ta hear him reslay it! N that says alot coming from me cause Im a big R.A fan... Lockz already earned his spot with yall to me as one of tha greatz!
2:16 Lock's foot slipped off the toilet in the background lol.
just noticed 😂😂😂
The real question is whats up with the pyramid jacket Lock is wearing at 2:15
oh no
Thats a real SHITTY problem
Hhahahhhaha
Mind blowing...so insanely sick
A 6 min remix track w/ 16 bars back to back of Locksmith, RA The Rugged Man, Diabolic, Chino XL, Immortal Technique, , Tech N9ne, Vinnie Paz, Canibus and Chris Rivers as an anchor .. damn thatd be legendary
That's an awesomely insane line-up !
So, you might as well throw in Apathy, Beast 1333, and K-Rino for good measure . ☮️
this is the defintion of lyrical abilities...and beyond .. ...been a fan of locksmith since 2004...
i swear to god RA has the best stamina out of any rapper, the guy doesnt breath from the beginning till the end of his damn verse, this song is literally the best fucking thing ive ever heard.
2:15-2:18 except there I guess.
New gen hip hop. Future of rap. Right here.
I have listened to this song a 1000 times and was almost like it was prophecy for today....
if anyone does a track with Ra they will get murdered on there own track, yet locksmith from the beginning showed that he can not only rap at Ra's level but even better than him. Locksmith is slowly becoming one of my favorite rappers.
nba2kmixer23 Go listen to some of his TBP cyphers, he kills the mic every time.
nba2kmixer23 this is the only song i have ever heard where Ra has been out rapped
+Temuera Burton in my opinion, it also occurred on "Learn Truth" with Talib Kwali.

these 2 got to put out an album
Locksmith is one of the greatest underground rappers of all time
This song is full of quotables!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolute fire!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BEST RAPPER ALIVE!!
"Claiming you atheist but you still worship your possessions!"
Real talk!
Yeah, because my possessions actually EXIST!
+Æsir where is your possession?

This is one of the only RA features ive heard where he doesn't totally outshine and over take it. Locksmith completely held his own loke always
RA has such an amazing voice! lock always holdin it down( and then some )
The song that introduced me to Locksmith
2 of the greatest!
lyricism on the highest level son
I think it could go higher.
Damn RA rocking that funky 4 +1 shirt. dope shit right there !!
Right?? He always got some dope ass ol' school shirts like that!
When I see locksmith the 1st thing that comes to mind is when he reduced dizaster to a choking act haha he's dope with his writtens as well as battle bars.
My two new favorite emcees. Lock n rugged
why al the guys featured with locksmith are dope and the beats, dont even get me started. shit is dope.
All I have to say is BAARRRRSSSS!!!! MC's better step their pen game up because this is a straight Lyrical CLASSSIC!!!! PEACE!!!
Well never forget meeting locksmith ❤❤❤ then token the weekend after was a crazy 2 weeks. Got tons of pictures

Real crazy shit!
Lock is quick becoming a top 10 in my eyes...crazy dope
How can this not inspire a nation of people who respect and demand this style of art?
This will be a classic
I guess my weed is strong cause I watched this countless times and I just noticed how frantic the camera is moving
Damn locksmith destroyed the track with that 2nd verse holy shit
Rick Sanchez the intergalactic Hellspawn I don't know if you know but...
Official...the track was straight napalm!
The lyrical aesthetics in this song are ASTONISHING!!!! The beat bang too, THIS IS HIP-HOP and, Lock smith and, Rugged are MCEES!!!!
