“They tell you to think big,
Then they tell you to see a shrink”
A true wordsmith
Thank y'all for bringing back SOULO!!!! This man is an introvert and an underrated gem in this game giving him his flowers while he is here that's Carson, CA finest right there!!
CARSON ARSONIST
He and Razzy!!!
And reason tde
@@williamhesquire Add Ray & Brandy, CArson doing its thang
"...know your roots and who you're rooting for..." Ab-soul
KRS TWO

"they tell you to think big, then tell you to see a shrink" 😤 tough
only comment that matters atm
Not All Heroes Wear Capes
Ab-Soul always stutters , and iThink it stems from the battle between knowing A LOT but always having to tone it down just for safety .... this man definitely knows more than he let's on ...
Real talk
And a decade of narcotics abuse doesn’t help
This couldn't be more true. This my main cause for stuttering but people won't understand 😕
His presence is so different from others, modest, lowkey, yet so intellectually powerful. A grandmaster, legend. Thank you Ab Soul for what you bring to this world
Is always the quiet ones that are the loudest. Such a respectable, genuine dude, a true role model. I hope the younger generation is introduced to Herbert after this album drops. I know I've been waiting ever since control system was dropped.
Kendrick gave the common ppl a therapy session. Soul boutta give us thinkers' thinkers an intervention
“They say you gon’ sail/sell or you gon’ sink. They tell you to think big then they tell you to see a shrink.” SOUUUUUL!🙏🏽🔥
Explain the bar
@@jariel1909 self explanatory homie
I wanna hear a kanye and ab-soul collab. Sounds like something he'd say
Freestyle starts at 23:50
Legend
Appreciate it 💯
Hero
Vamos🔥
Oh man 🤣
Sway's introduction of Soul is beautiful. I teared up
Love the connection between sway and soul. He really values him in many ways. That story about sway giving him 100 dollars was powerful.
“It wasn’t an album it was an algorithm” 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The greatest lyricist of his generation. 👌
He up there for sure
Daylyt will go back n fourth with soul.
@@dezdolla they battled lol
@@Alafi1 i know. I was just stating that daylyt n soul can go back n fourth non stop.
I was heavy on Ab-soul 10 years ago. Seeing him here is feeling nostalgic.
Fever dream. So excited.
Same bro
“KRS 2”
“3Pac”
- Soul’s ad-libs over Sway are crazy 😹 🔥🐐
What Sway did for Ab with the $100 defines what a real 🥷 is!!!! 💯
One of the most underated lyricists of this era him cyhi, earl, krit, vince, joey, denzel, cordae, boldy, saba, wale...
You gave him his credit & disrespected him in the same sentence puttin him next to a few of those names
@@hippopproof2559 lol seriously
@@hippopproof2559 how? All of these guys are lyrical and underrated..where is the disrespect?
Roc Marciano, Griselda, Ransom & Freddie Gibbs
Vince nice but I wouldn't call him a lyricist. It's no disrespect either. I don't call dmx a lyricist. Big/hov/Nas etc lyrics, can-i-bus. But like pac, Vince, dmx they can paint pictures without the fancy wordplay. Which is still incredible to do in a short song
Ab-Soul will go down as one of the greatest lyricists in our age....Already greatest wordsmith in TDE. i hope ab bounces back up, heals, and kill those beats...like he always do
The only album release I whole heartedly anticipate this year!!! Love you Ab
You know this. Soul has affected my live in a lot of ways. I can't wait.
As a LIVE HARD FAN of Ab-Soul.... this moment feels GREAT!!! WE NEED TO SUPPORT HIS JOURNEY.
We love you Sway. Thank you for what you do and everything you have done and your contribution to music and the culture and art. We love you man. Thank you for always giving the most genuine and respectful interviews in the game.
Sway is pure Hip Hop 💯
Soul is so humble too, how he mentioned that sway really is a big reason for big come up. Sway took a chance because he believed in him
“If you behind Ab, then maybe you can stomach this” - Soul
Damn 🔥🔥🔥
The intro alone was enough! Ab -Soul to the world.
This dude is so freaking underrated! I discovered him inadvertently and went back to the beginning of his catalog..
He has a poetic delivery much like K-dot...
Long-term mentality, then
Intelligent movement, now
Been a TDE fan since my highschool days
Soul was always the one preaching sense, till this day, MOONSHOOTER. Should be on Radio waves! Let's go Herbert! #TDE
Him an Kendrick both were preaching sense tho
Beyond excited.
Ab Soul & his talent, perspective, the ability to persevere is a gift to the world. A constant reminder of what not giving up and embracing your presence in this world looks like. Control System will forever be one of my favorite projects. Excited about Herbert.🌌
“”They say you gon sail or you gon sink/ they tell you to think BIG, then tell you to see a shrink..” Soul, wtf dawg 😭🤯 lyrical mastermind!
24:21 The love for Canibus first album in the freestyle though, channel zero reference and the buckingham palace quote, love it.
Soul’s my favorite artist, been a big fan of his for a decade. Words can’t describe how excited I am for his new album. It’s been a long time coming but I know it’s gonna be something special
bro, he killed that verse even tho he was nervous. Soul is back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait to smoke & cry to his album when it drops. SWAY, you the goat for bringing him back on your show. Thanx for that ❤
Ey sis i pray you're not under depression...but you will make it through! believe and trust yourself! All love fam
I rather wait till an album it’s on 432hz healthy frequency ~~~
Otherwise it’s trash.
@@Legend.Status.ZR1 I don’t recall asking for anybody’s opinion..
I felt that
😭💔
i met both of these dudes in person thanks to divine timing and man is it good to see two of the greatest in the same room . god bless soulo and his journey
Love Ab-Soul! We been missing you! Glad to hear your voice and can’t wait for the album!!
Really nice to have Ab-Soul back
We love you Ab-Soul
12 years I been listening to Soulo. Been a huge part of my life getting me through the transitions over the years. Much luv Soulo.
"Sway had the answers all along that was never a question"
bars
You can search far and wide and will never find a negative comment on anything posted about AB-Soul. Not a troll, not a bot. Just positive experiences from the music, powerful lyric quotes, and knowledge. SOULO we love you man. It's beautiful to see you back and anew. Keep this shit rollin!
“ If im not better than kendrick nobody is”-ab-soul
What a moment.
🇿🇦Love You Soul
Fellow South African😎🇿🇦
Can’t wait until he comes to SA🔥I swear I would buy a vip ticket
Sway's introduction of Soul is beautiful. I teared up🥲
Goosebumps. I’ll forever be a true fan to bro. I ain’t even a fan boy but he just hit different, lyrics and all. I’m glad to see him back.
"I make my dreams a reality so to speak, or so they said, I could still be asleep"
My jaw just dropped to the floor from the way he just spewed out those fucking COMPLICATED BARS, that just felt like he couldn't wait for the people to hear him. He's ready. And so are we. Thank you
Man, i gotta say that “Do Better” song be so stuck in my head. Like I could be at work, find myself slipping and say “Do Better”, i could’ve forgot to do something and then I sing “I gotta do better gotta do better TODAYYYY”. Wish I listened to the music more and in depth but in my defense early 20’s me just wasn’t there yet. THANK U 4 being transparent.
One of my top favorite artists of ALL time! So excited for the new project! 🔥👽
Salute to Ab-Soul and Sways’ crew⛪️
I'm so glad to see him back at it. Me being an older cat (49 to be exact) I'm looking forward to this young king new project keep it up
2 things that really stuck to me in this interview are the build up to when Ab was spitting and said "Sway had the answers all along."
And sway to the end of the interview when he told Ab,
"Embrace the season brother."
In context, its some legendary stuff
the story about sway droppin man the quick 100 that is powerful stuff...life changing
You can still see how hurt he is over Alori Joh. RIP
So glad he’s still here with us on this green earth 🌏 not a artist that relate to more than SOUL. Rest in paradise Doeburger. 💜🍔 know your roots n who ya rootin for
Sway, my man... I love you. Recognizing the messiah right in front of you!!!
The vibe is legendary. Congrats soul
Very good to see Ab Soul giving Sway his props 👍
And good to see Sway's reaction to it 💯
"They tell you to
think BIG,
then they tell you
to see a shrink"
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Souuuullllll!!!!
That freestyle took me back to 2000 - 2015 rap vibes
Which rappers exactly?
@@PenguiinLips He did a lil Jayz homage at 25:09
The onion has definitely been peeled back. So proud of Ab-Soul man. had a hard time holding back the waterworks 😭
Aww this is nice. I’ve been binging old Sway x Ab-Soul (shoutout to the Pineal Gland performance) clips over the past few weeks and it was nice to hear the backstory Ab-Soul shared around 6:00. That was love.
What a great intro sway gave to ab soul
soul.O has always been 1 of my favourite at TdE....BIG UP, Super fan from South Africa
Can't explain how excited I am for this project. For his rebirth and growth within himself. It resonates POWERFULLY
Ab allwes been a fav of mine
I want an entire Ab-Soul X Lupe Fiasco album
Maannnn they ain’t ready but I would love that
@@suleymandibba62 they have a few songs together
T.R.O.N. and Thorns & Horns and another one but I forgot.
@@eltronado1547 world runners
@@eltronado1547 oh trust brotha I’ve listened to all of their collabs. Two of my favorite artists. I’m just saying them doing a whole project together would be crazy.
Would spend mad years dissecting their bars lmao
I love his voice. We dont hear enough of it.
Hell yes so great to see Ab soul he is criminally underrated fr fr
Whewwww Sway that intro was powerful. There is life and death in the power of the tongue and those were words of life!
Soul is 1 of 1 man. God bless family
Humble as fuck. We've missed you, black lip bastard. Can't wait to hear what you've come up with after this time. So much love
This man has a great soul on him ⭐️
First little brother break up now everyday I wake up somebody got a problem with Soul, wassup feelin irrelevant cause my movement intelligent run a check up like stethoscope " - Ab-Soul
"First the Fat Boys break up, now everyday I wake up
Somebody got a problem with Hov
What's up? Y'all niggas all fed up 'cause I got a little cheddar
And my record's movin' out the store?" - Jay-Z
It's a intelligent movement 📈
Ain't no love, in the heart of a city
You ain't never Seen a Junkie so Freshhhhh.❤
Sway I’m 26 seen you on tv since I was at least 5 -7 years old ur a og and been a subscriber for 12 plus years goat !!! Sway got the answers !
The real ones will always love AB SOUL 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Sway makes the best Ab-Soul interviews. I'm excited.. Really looking forward to this album.
It’s blessing to have dude back. If anybody got anything bad to say about soul, I got problems with you and you obviously got problems with yourself. So glad this nigga back.
Ab-Soul 😮💨🏆💓💓💓💓💜💜💜💜💜
Mark 8:36 🙏🏿 Ab-Soul touched my heart with this interview. So many people been tryna put me on for years. Finally, I'm ready to expereince. Can't wait for the album to drop. Blessings to you, Herb and the whole Sway family! Love from The Bay 🌴
Damn this brought me soo much joy💚
I love your music and you speak so much wisdom, so much truth, so much to share with the world, please NEVER stop Ab-Soul. Herbert. I love your poetry. Thank you!
Soul word play is some of the greatest I've ever heard.
Beautiful interview ❤️thank you👸
You came a long way. Illuminate, rappers shit and turn me up soul (Soul and Dot) move me always!
🔥 🥵 cmon AB.....LET'S GOOOO!!!!!! GO TO HAVE HIM BACK!!!! STRAIGHT BARS!!!
AB-soul is my favorite rapper no lie
One Love 🫶🏼thank you! thank you!
I hope that all is well for everyone here and I hope that you all have a great and memorable day today.
It's so interesting how most of our favorite rappers nowadays can't really freestyle off the top anymore. That in itself is art is suppose.
Herb! Ab Soul it's good to see you out here brother
Forever my favorite artist. The GOAT.
Hey y'all. I'm lit and Herbert is making sense to me. 🔮
Ab-Soul Mann🔥🔥💯 I feel like crying listening to this man 😭😭
We love you Herb a lot of us will never give up on our dreams because of you. We RUN WE RUN WE RUN THIS WORLD
I like his reaction when he heard the beat.
Damn i respect tf outta sway for not diving into Mac Miller and his girl at the time (allegedly she committed suicide) that he talks about. I think her name was Lori Joel. Damn I didn't know so many ppl around ab was dying like that. First his girl... then cap steez then Mac then burger then tde starting splitting up doing their own things... damn ab been through so much and the fact sway knows it on an even deeper level and doesn't bring up certain topics for clicks... sway the best man
*Alori Joh
Those were literally some of the most potent bars I’ve heard in ages dawg…..and he was fucking around…..my god….
I found out my brother passed this morning and went back to this interview because I'm inspired by Ab-Soul, Black Hippy and TDE. I miss you my boy love hope God and the angels helping you get use to the upper room.🙏🙏
Condolences to your families loss ❤
@Mike Austin I appreciate you thank you
Sway probably do so many selfless acts that he can't even remember 25%. He needs to get a humanitarian award or something. Someone please get him in a Hall of Fame or something. Sway is the culture!
Aahhh this made me so excited for the album and happy for Herb! Much love from the west coast!
