"As long as there's dough to grab, I'ma hold the mag, load the bag, 'til I'm a helmet and a folded flag" RIP BROWNSVILLE KA - your artistry will reign for centuries.
From 8 years til now, there hasn't been one month i didn't rock this. Unbelievelably deep, raw, yet sophisticated rap. Bow down ta this. Ka, please flood us with more of that real sh. Marci keep on. Respect.
KA is a beast. This dude is revolutionizing how quick metaphors can stack up on a track. Mature rap. This is not bullshit. I can listen to this guy for days. To street aware, too intelligent, too much depth, too vivid, internal rhymes and multies like CRAZY. Its rap for thinking minds. You should make an album with Roc Marci already. You complement each other on a track. "Long as it's dough to grab, ima hold a mag/load the bag, till I'm a helmet and a folded flag/ .."Almost died tryna make paper, now I pen survival/mac-10's reliable in fight mode on that night road/ ^WTF!!!
"You heard the prophet spoke I'm from the projects; to get by, I sold dope Had high hopes for folks that got high on coke Who used to be responsible adults Fell from grace, in love with the way freebase taste From the hood, L.I. to B.K" Roc is cold. Ka is amazing as well.
I came here to bid one of the finest pens I've ever heard farewell. This one hits me differently. The music that was articulated got me through some tough times. As long as I'm able to hear, your art will always live on. R.I.P. 🕊
Everyday’s an existential dilemma in NYC, that’s why the city has been responsible for so many artists: creativity and innovation, you have to be crafty when you’re rubbing shoulders with 8 million people. From Walt Whitman to Big Brown to Bob Dylan to Melle Mel, it never ceases...and now KA
Can we agree they could revolutionize the game & a lot of stigmas (i.e. age) potentially being the greatest duo we've heard? That Piece Be With You can be a game shifter. Hopefully these brothers plan to release this year with it..they both are getting A Lot of attention. Been listening to the same KA songs for years now...& they ALL get better. Don't think I've heard a bad KA verse , if it even exist.
Grew up in Cali. But Imma golden era kid and always had that East coast ear. I’m glad there’s still New York katz still having that good East coast sound. Not succumbing to the bullshit trap music and mumble rap garbage and staying underground
Nightbreed is one of my favorite duos and that's based on only a few songs. I only recently discovered their unreleased album and it confirms they were one of the illest groups to never truly blow up and get their shine. The lucky ones that knew about them or those who discover them will likely feel the same. I'm just now going through Ka's discography and i'm thankful to have found it. This is real music that resonates with me. RIP to Nightbreed (Kev & Ka)
Some individuals have tht certain vibe . KA was a brother I got to know from my hometown thru Underground hip hop @ a time when the music is garbage. KA a real one OCEAN HILL BROWNSVILLE.. If You Know , you know. R.I.P. BROTHER...
@isaaccureton - I've just this minute come across the last track he made 'Borrowed Time' - never heard of him before this . Liked that track so much got to check everything else . I'm not american , black male or trendy but i do have really good taste in music. Sorry to read he is no longer here ....like you said he's got a vibe about him .......I am intrigued . Today wasn't a good day but much better now that I have had this good bit of fortune .
Almost 10 years old and still 🥶 as f especially with the grimy downtown LA visuals Edit: “‘til I’m a helmet and a folded flag…” R.I.P. Ka! 👨🏾🚒🇺🇸🧯🚒 NYFD Captain

Likewise Almighty
You ain’t never lie
Real Hip Hop! 👍👍
Still fresh
Same here.Cinematic af.
RIP king. One of the goats
Ka got that kind of voice that's perfect for movie narration
Fun fact: his voice became raspy over time due to being in fires & smoke from his service in the FDNY 🔥

Bk shit ya heard?
Soldier for real 💯
Roc somehow makes every verse cold, slick, colorful, entertaining, and hilarious. He's like Rakim, Kool Keith, and MF Doom combined
WIT A TOUCH OF KOOL G🔥😥💪🏾
Ka verse was harder tho, if u listen
Hit the henny like it’s padded 😂😂😂
@@thrillcutz2162 no his name is Rahkeim Calief Meyer

Roc is cold. Ka is amazing as well.
i’m still thinking about “generate cake scraped off dinner plates” that’s some lowkey DOOM shit bro wtf
Rest Well my Friend. The Great KA
One of the best records ever recorded
Just came back to listen again. This shit is timeless.
High degree of respect for these writers.
TIMELESS

Grown man hip hop...real ny hip hop

The Divine Spark True indeed 100 percent.
2000’s kids ain’t ready for this
@@americojavane7713 for sure... They can't comprehend
Everyday’s an existential dilemma in NYC, that’s why the city has been responsible for so many artists: creativity and innovation, you have to be crafty when you’re rubbing shoulders with 8 million people.
From Walt Whitman to Big Brown to Bob Dylan to Melle Mel, it never ceases...and now KA
I hit the henny like it's padded.
Rest up . I listen to u on a daily blasting the music all thru queens thank you.
Their flows can slice butter.
Marciano and Ka a perfect combo
This Song Is So On Fire..Straight Up Legendary..No doubt about it.
"Press keys like I write code"..so sick
".desperately the recipe is press keys like I write code. I'm quick 'witted'. You? Type: slow." The multi entendre's in this line alone...smh too ill.
That shit was ill!! 🔥🔥Whooo! Bananas!
@@verbalpainter thanks for elaborating, i never caught that, such a clever line man
@williamcapone5457 thanks for replying, so i have another unnecessary excuse to rock this joint this A.m. Salute!
LONG LIVE KA, sending respects to his family and friends
This is one of the illest songs in the past decade. Deserves way more shine.
after listening to this track over a hundred times i gotta say ka's verse is probably one of the top 5 rap verses of all time (at least my top 5)
......till I'm a helmet and a folded flag.
Damn!, that one touched me
Street Soldier.
Ringolero yeah that was some clever shit
For real i had to replay it and send it to my bro.i mean gawd damn
YEAH THAT’S A CRAZY 😜 LINE HE MESSED ME UP WITH THAT ONE ☝🏼 DAMN
His rhyme schemes and metaphors are just wicked in this one. Damn. One of my favs...RIP.
Roc Marci and KA might be the best gangster mix ever. You got smooth and poetry at the sametime
This keeps me cold when there's overcooked pseudo hot rap everywhere. Means a lot. Thank you.
MrDrumsplease word
Long Live the Spirit of KA
" yall all sweet I'm more unique with a better flavour."
Big tune 🔥🔥🔥💣💣💣
RIP fam!!! Sadly and gladly, heads will now know the greatness some never knew what right here all along. 1 Love!

Yeah I can't believe this isn't huge.
2021 and you’re right
I listen to this so much. Just pure technique and lyrical fire.
Grew up in Cali. But Imma golden era kid and always had that East coast ear. I’m glad there’s still New York katz still having that good East coast sound. Not succumbing to the bullshit trap music and mumble rap garbage and staying underground
Mega factz
This niccas been down for a while!!! LOYALTY is its own REWARD!!! FRFR
This where I heard him first time crazy
I think this is Ka's best verse
Still listening. My favorite song I think.
Favorite song from Brownsville's maestro. As DOOM said to Sean Price: "See you over there". 🙏
"Back to where my brother went that's what my tomb will say"-MF DOON
It don't make no sense how any one can be this godly with the pen.
CANT CHANGE OVER NIGHT LIKE EBENEZER. KA!
''i HIT the Henny like it's padded'' - WOOO - lol
Soooo dope!
Syyyck
lol
So simple but so Incredible!
Found out about this dude via Roc Marci, and he's gone WAY too soon. R.I.P. Ka.
"Recipe, desperately, press keys like I write code" DAMN FAM SHIT IS TOO RAW
REAL RAP RIGHT HERE
RIPPPP
@@surr3al1sfuck dude i can’t believe it…another legend lost. Rest in power
Where Have I been! This goes so Hard and over so many heads! On Repeat!
One of the best travks in hip hop history.. i want this played at my funeral
Whoever mixed this song did an amazing job
2 of the most underrated/Legendary MC’s.
"In time you see a thin line between friend and rival/Between you and me, stupidity amends bravado" Now that's slick af!!!
🙏
Hey... that's Los Angeles....damn, Ka was in town before I knew there was fire MC's other than Black Thought
I was still waiting for the album from these 2 😢😢😢😢😢
_I know what's right, but can't change over night, like Ebenezer..._
Rest In Power King KA 👊👊🏾
REST IN POWER KA. Thank you for your art.
Love from Nigeria
Every time i listen to a ka verse I hear something crazy I didn't hear the first hundred times
Rest In power Ka . That Staff part the seas
These two brothers have raised and set the bar for Hip Hop. Their styles are the ultimate compliment on the same track.
Roc raised the bar then did a muscle up (had to do it lol)
Ka is outstanding!!
🙏
