15 years ago I used this track to get my 63 year-old dad into rap. He's a Vietnam vet. Now he listens to Run the Jewels at 78.
Thanks for sharing this.
DAMN I thought this track is 2010 and I was really impressed about how well it sounds 11 years later, but it appears that it was released in 2006, DAAAAAAMN
Tell your pops welcome home
That’s super fucking cool
Say hello to Leroy
R.A's verse is one of the best I've EVER heard. Pure art.
+Albert Wesker Yeah literally the best flow ever
biggie sad he was one of the best he'v heard.
Albert Wesker truth
Just watched Tin Foil Hat with R.A as a guest
@Jason Reyes Haha that's amazing!
i love how its told from two different view points, one always hated the war and the other was blind to the evil he was doing
+ronaldmcdonald155 What if I told you they aren't different view points?
+Celina Stampfli Correct
+darkestification It is a battle within himself.
He isn't blind to the evil, he's embracing it.
NOBODY IS SAYING HE IS BLIND TO THE EVIL ....
R.A's verse is better than most rappers careers!!!
+Nadeem Malik real talk
+Nadeem Malik agreed
i'm glad you guys agree...
Nadeem Malik I swear LMAO
Yeah he's a well respected under ground artist. He raps about the realest shit
Crazy to know he's rapping about his own father in that verse.
For those that don't know, RA the Rugged Man's dad was Sgt. John A. Thorburn and this was his actual story.
Sweet
@@micheledevollNot sweet. Very fucked up. Very sad. RA's siblings are all really disabled due to agent orange...
This makes sense man, such a unique but incredibly detailed perspective, this makes it so much heavier tho 😅
My favorite verse was "for press use only, Babygrande records"
Yes, very rarely it plays at just the perfect time, time to perfection
This is a masterpiece. Stoupe is a God, the beat is fucking haunting made in to sound. Vinnie steps up big, and RA the Rugged brings complete and total ruin.
The truth!
Stoupe is the GOAT
I gotta check more of his stuff out. I mostly rep C-lance cuz I see alot of his work with artists I've discovered over past 5 yrs along with his jmt work
There is only one God.
There is no Jedi Mind Tricks without Stoupe. Haha
I made a project at my school about this song, the teacher gave me a fking good grade and now he shows it to every other class that he has since 2010.
Cool.
I would like to see it, honestly. Do you have a link to somewhere we could view it ?
send me the assignment, I'm doing one as well
We had to do a presentation on a book about slavery in middle school and I spat KRS's lines about overseer==officer from Sound of da police
Fuck yeah. Thats awesome.
Some of this is true. Ra had two siblings that had their lives destroyed by Agent Orange. He rapped in his dad's perspective. This is a great but depressing song.
Yeah same deal with "Rooster" by AIC. That song was written from the perspective of Jerry Cantrell's father who fought in Vietnam.
But its sad Though 😢 agree wit me
Yep. Two perspectives, one (VP) who can't stand it; and the other (R.A.) who lives for the chaos.
Yeah this is so fucked up. Every disability and disease he named his siblings suffer from due to agent orange and his father was a green beret(special ops) who got a Purple Heart in the Vietnam war after being shot down in a helicopter. His whole verse is from his dad’s perspective.
Because truth always hurts
Thank you for your continued support.
The pleasure is all ours. Thank you for the salvation in the most prestigious of raps. Adore this 🙏🏼🔥❤️
🙌🏼🖤❤️💛💚
Still jamming this. The crazy part is that it's about RA's dad. It's a true story. They even wanted to make a documentary on his story but it never happened. RIP RA's pops. I just hope he was able to find peace with his past before it was his time. The burden of that kind of guilt had to be hard...
Kick them asses so they do Another Album over your Beats which are pure Art 💚
"Wars are not paid for in wartime, the bill comes later."

I swear this song gets me high every time I listen to it.
its too good
5T3PH3N100 lol
lmao ok
Listen to the psycho social biological manipulation of human consciousness
It definitly gives me a certain high and makes me think about life. Always coming back to this song every once in awhile
I think when a verse still gives you goosebumps after 15 years of listening to it thats got to be the best of all time
R.A. this is beyond incredible to this day
Can you fucks stop reminding me it's been 15 years... i'm almost 30 now. 15 years and still hasn't been surpassed
The shit is priceless, you'll be thinking about it like an hour after you done heard it. Hip hop at its finest
That last line packs a punch! 💥
“I still try to think positive
Cause in life, God take, God give”
I usually don't listen to hip hop. I listen to death metal mostly.
But I just listened to this song 7 times in a row. Absolutely unreal talent on display here.
Mate don't disregard a genre because of the commercial songs and advertisements. Hip-Hop is incredible, it's the most complex genre. You've got so much to explore im jealous!!
Fellow death metal head here. Been jamming JMT for years
Army of the pharaohs are the kings of heavy metal rap
Dude Vinnie Paz is an O.G. in the rap game. Same with R.A. The Rugged Man they are amazing. I love death metal too, but expanding your tastes is always awesome. Jedi Mind Tricks are always solid too.
If you’re a metal fan you’ll probs like Jus Allah; Supreme, Divide And Conquer. He’s lyrically like the most metal of underground ‘superhuman portrayal’ hip-hop world, which Jedi Mind Tricks generally fall under when they’re not being philosophical.
Powerful.
Because it speaks the dirty truth.
@@JDC2389Yup...
Are there any specific, legitimate reasons why this shouldn't be in the top 10 best raps of all time? No? Good.
because theres better, but this is great
Ant Scain There isn't better. It is the reality of Vietnam, and it is fucked.
Ant Scain
what are other good raps that can compare to this? id like to give em a shot if uve got any links
alex931022 dance with the devil - immortal technique.
Most other IT raps too for that matter. revolutionary vol. 2 was pretty fire.
Ant Scain Chino XL, Pharoahe Monch, Tonedeff, Cormega and Tech N9ne. They have bars for days.
Everyones like RA RA RA.
and im like "Yooo, Vinnie killed it too."
Lol
dead right
Boxcutter!!!
I actually liked his perspective better as it shows how hard it is for people who don’t have it in them to kill innocent people, i think most can relate it’s pure evil. Really cool song tho i like both perspectives
@@the8thgate543 it was RA’s dad prospective RA was probably talking about how his dad got manipulated to kill people and what he was doing was amusing him
R.A. just straight up destroys this song.
R. A. the Rugged Man's verse is the best verse in Hip-hop history!!
@aryan raina Calm down bro... You know there are some verses in hip-hop History at least as good than this, right ? Even in "mainstream garbages"...
Some subjects can Hit people in different ways.
Plus the guy recognized this is one of the greatest, what are you expecting ? You want everybody to think this is the greatest rap ever no matter what ? Then it would probably become one the "mainstream garbages" you spit on...
You need a bit more maturity bro.
It's in the running because the subject matter is powerful.
@@redshady4182 man must've had a bad day or smth
My uncle Gary Tanner. Passed the military exam at 21 years old with a score so high that they allowed him to bypass officers school. They sent him to Nam as a captain.
When i was in high school i brought home deer hunter to watch with the family. My mother exploded. Like I've never seen, out of no where of something seemingly harmless as it was "just" a movie. I never really got it then. I am in my 30's now and i get it. This song means so much to me i cant express. Its truth. Its brutal. Its revealing It means and says something we should all intimately understand. FOR THE FUTURE.
Very true
such a perfect song, im a combat vet (not vietnam) and this shit encapsulates two mentalities SO WELL. 2nd verse is absolutely god mode, goose bumps everytime.
That's cool as my guy ❤❤
One of my favorite songs ever. Its literally a real story. Amazing lyrics everything just flowed. Ending almost brings a tear to my eye
People allergic to words of wisdom- lowkey, he was right my generation is stupid af listening to Drake and wayne while masterpieces like this are not noticed
you're so right
I feel you that this generation's stupid, but vinnie and them are satisfied with where they are, if they wanted to be a pop. act like Drake & Wayne he'd of made more love & partying/ comedic songs,
MrVidsAllDay you're a true poet.
May Allah look over Lowkey.
Shoaib Khan WORD
Hip-Hop doesn't get much better.
Steve McGrath simple statement, but could not be more true.
This gotta be the best story telling song of all time. My big bro put me onto this when I was literally like 8 years old. I’m 24 now. I can almost rap R.A’s verse word for word. I even broke this song down for a school project in high school 😭😭😭
R.A. The Rugged Man's voice is hypnotic in his verse. I go into a trance hearing it. Such a great song. Deep lyrics, haunting loops, tight bars, and sick beats. This is a great example of what rap should aim to be.
*hip-hop
@@Ryu_hayabusa561 thanks for being a prick
@@Ryu_hayabusa561agreed
i remember being in highschool around 2010-2011 and the chills this song gave me. really opened up my mind to the suffering endured during these times. masterpiece, plain and simple.
This is the type of verse you havent heard in 7 years but still know almost word for word due to how fucking great it is and how much you memorized it back in the day.
the rugged man's verse is just insane. The most intense verse I've ever heard. Fucking insane
If this song doesn’t give you goosebumps, please see a physician.
one of the most incredibly written songs I will ever hear in my life
One of the most haunting hip hop songs ever produced. You can seriously learn more about what the Vietnam War was actually like in a little over 4 minutes here than in 4 years of a high school "education".
U heard never again on the swarm album? Thats pretty heavy
Vinnies flow + Stoupe on production + R.A & ONE of the greatest verses = CLASSIC .. Still here for this in 2020 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
3017 an im still here, JMT will always live on in the hearts of those who know what real life is. Reapect to this group, its nice to find a non corrupt voice that speaks for the silent 👏👏👏👏
Man's living 995 years in the future
This is one of the heaviest hitting rap songs I've ever heard in my life, and that verse from R.A is just insanely written. This is a beautiful song.
what's crazy is that JMT have given a lot of heavy weights and legends features/verses on their albums. Black Thought, Sean Price, Canibus, Kool G Rap, Ras, Killah Priest, GZA, Tragedy Khadafi have all appeared and yet R.A. comes in and spits arguably the best verse of all time..
this whole album gets me into a self-reflective and bummy mood. especially songs like this, serenity in murder, and when all light dies. great stuff. love JMT
Legit one of the hardest musical pieces ever.
I think you never heard psycho frame but yeah hard is a point of view, musically wise it isnt a hard track, lyric wise its one of the heaviest !
R.A tells his dads story so good, paints a vivid picture with words!!!!
Best verse in Hip Hop period!!!!!!!
If you choked back tears to verse 2, you’re still alive.
Listening to this in the morning fucked me up I forgot how potent it is, what a song
One of the things i love about RA's insane bar is his intensity. Vinnie is cool as hell as always to split a track with RA. One of the finest tracks ever laid down.
Tonight I saw this song preformed live, life is complete
No way!!!
His flow is godlike
As a war veteran this is some powerfull shit.... your right they are the same cause I am both
This is some of the best rapping I’ve heard in my life
My favorite war song ever
Still one of the songs with the most powerful lyrics ever!
This is on another level. Honestly one of the greatest songs I've ever heard.
When I tell people I listen to rap they act surprised/really?.. but, they dont know about art like this. They think of *insert pop radio rapper here* with empty lyrics telling no story or anything meaningful. just what they get paid the hoes they get and the cars they drive.
this this and more this. jmt and MF doom satiate my rap needs aplenty.
Aesop Rock & Capital Steez
I know they fucked up rap and it is put in a negative light it fucking sucks
Indeed it seems like all the mainstream rappers have gangsta mad libs books that help them write their lyrics.
Brizzle412 i feel u bro
This is the best song I've heard actually describing the mentality of a Soldier on the front line of war
2022 and this song still runs wild in my mind.
Was listening to older rugged man albums on spotify, heard this gem, its fulfills me with tears every time. Probably my all time favourite song(rugged mans verse alone is my favourite)
Props to the ones who were here before this vid had hit even 300k. Come back every year since the release, beyond amazing job. That last bar is the main reason I listen to it.. “my son died he ain’t live, but i still try to think positive cause In life god take god give. “ .. My boy i hope your living an amazing life up above..
Simply a legendary song. Gives me goosebumps every time.
That second verse doe 🔥🔥🔥
manasseh dawkins such a flow!!!
One of the dopest tracks ever made. Instrumental is on another level
shivers down my spine every time... rugged man's verse and the last part of dance with the devil are the only songs that give me that feeling of intense chills
The part where he talks about his friends intestines and body parts flyin its fucking intense
Amazing song, captures it perfectly.
The beat is historically accurate, it’s almost as if you’re in the forest surrounded by gunfire with the military playing the horror screams through speakers to scare the Vietnamese… you have the jungle drums this might be the greatest concept beat ever.
Very true. And with those intro samples
one of my fav jmt songs
I first listened to this song 10 year's ago and I'm coming back to it today because of RA's verse! Priceless.
Rugged Man one of the greatest verses in Hip Hop period
1:40 is dope as fuck.
Society Of The Fly who is the guy?? He is dropping some raw power the whole song
m4verickWiz I don't know I'm trying to find out though when I do I will write you. Also can you tell me if these Rhymes are any good.
m4verickWiz Update > the guy rapping at 1:40 is R.A. Rugged Man
Society Of The Fly don't forget Vinnie!
Society Of The Fly hey bro the rhymes look pretty sick it'll be nice to hear them with some beat !
I'm in tears every time listening to it and still I can't stop.
farQuhar85 same
Man I get chills everywhere when I listen to this..
Brutal tune....wicked beat....excellent lyrics.....
This song hits different when your grandfather died of heart disease after agent orange and now I have connective tissue disorders and nerve disorders. 😊
This pure brilliance,period.
By far my favorite album of all time, and one of the most overlooked albums of al times
this is the greatest rap song iv heard
This song may well have single handedly converted me to rap.
Oh theres bangers like this in all genres my friend
@@mxgxhxdx1312 all genres yes
This song is much, much more relevant to us now than when it was released.
May God bless you for this. 🔥❤️
EM never talked about these things. So it is different. It is like comparing Metallica with Dark Funeral ... come on stop it , kids.
Shhh go listen to drake
+Rogelio Acuna you're stupid
VândâL¡¡ Vąndettą¿¿
That's all you got internet vandal? Lmao if your mum finds out that you're being keyboard warrior YOU will be butthurt.
Em is a very skilled lyricist but I relate to paz's music more, he's on a different level
Yea , me too , Benny
I'd love an Iraqi war update to this. No glory in war.
Glory is coming home man.
word same producer vinnie and ra
Anyone that says there is,is either a civilian that watches to much tv news,a dumbass,or a monster
Steve McGrath The vietnam war was far more evil.
Lokey - Obamanation
2023 had to comeback to this fire track!
Straight lovely hip hop music
Vietnam broke my father.
I'm so sorry to hear that....
RA THE RUGGED MAN'S verse is insane . his name should really be on this since the story he tells is about his father in the vietnam war
This song is so beautiful.
This gives me chills.. real chills..
What a masterpiece
Unbelievable lyrics.
God bless this channel please i pray this music will be alive when my kids are alive i will make sure they know what hip-hop is!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
this song is just amazing
This is without doubt the best rap verse I’ve ever heard of.
RAP= Rhythm assisted poetry....and that's just what it is...well this stuff anyway.
Too bad that in most cases today it stands for "retards attempting poetry".
sWORDof+heSPIRIT unreal poetry. Everything about this track is majestic
@@Shard.11 Most cases? Most rap is underground
still gives me chills every time i listen
Two of the greatest!
Today I looked over at my friend and I saw him pulling up Spotify so I put this song on and told him to listen. I go back to doing whatever I was doing at the time and when I looked back at him he had turned the song off and was listening to Chief Kief. I almost euthanized myself right then and there.
he has a different taste then you
Cam cline lol you got me crying over here lol....
Real recognise real
You want him to be a copy of you ?
Oh i read Chief Kamachi and i was happy for him 😁
still dope af in 2016
Still dope in 2020. Check out Stig of the Dump, English cat on a joint with RA called brain dead, nice combo
Hands Down one of the best songs ever made .... In All of music!
dope! just discovered this on Pandora!
same :D what station did you find it on?
this is fucking sick
thats war for ya
One of the best tracks ever.
Truly a work of art
How can someone even dislike this song!
good point for real
Don't this sound like.... what is going on right now? This song is very much the same just in different location.
It's always been the same.
Khan WrathOf
History repels its self.
War. War never changes.
The US just keep using the same war-for-profit playbook every decade. The weapons get deadlier and the enemies change but that's all.
