"I write raps... and when niggas bite, I clap... because they shit sound better now." LMAO!! That's one of my favorite opening lines of all time. These guys literally reinvigorated battle culture. You can tell that those bars were inspired by his time in ciphers, dismantling emcees.
If I ever got dissed by a legend like KRS , I'd have the diss lyrics memorized too !😂 That means you made it !! Casual, Souls, Del, & the whole Heiro movement is still relevant today 30 years later. I went to Skyline (Titans 💯) in the mid 90's when Heiro broke & the whole school was dressed like the Thats When Ya Lost video for a few years. Northface & Girbaud for days lllol 41510
I'm on this one SB, my favorite Casual joint has to be Later On, which I peeped a plaque for in his background! Flowers to the channel, the guests, viewers, and the culture.
I always like the souls of mischief and casual I like casual perspectives and how he gives people who came before him and how he don’t back down and how he ain’t afraid to speak his mind
I dig what Cas was saying about Too $hort, like if all of a sudden, Wesley Pipes decided to get real righteous and start coming at people like he the new Jesse Jackson or something - you're gonna be like, ummmm, wait a minute... And yes, I said, Wesley Pipes...
KRS One wasn't dissing them. He says Frisco Disco, the disc is like a Nabisco, Chocolate chip cookie, don't f with me rookie. Frisco Disco is a song classic breakbeat.
HIERO TO THIS DAY MADE IT PLAIN AND SIMPLE THAT YOU COULD BE YOU WHERE EVER U CAME FROM.... SALUTE TO THAT CREW!!!!!!!! THEM AND FREESTYLE FELLOWSHIP, GOOD LIFE EMCEES AND THE LIST GOES ON FOREVER OF SETS THAT WERE PUTTING IT DOWN DIFFERENTLY AS "GANGSTA".
I would've never considered that Frisco disco line a diss but I can see how Heiro would've thought so especially if that incident occurred before KRS made that joint. Rappers listen on a different level than us casual (no pun intended) listeners. 😂
I always though Krs's "Frisco Disco" line was a retaliation to Paris' "I ain't pro-human cuz all humans ain't pro-black" attack on Kris' humanist position

I'm a little bit puzzled by Casual's assessment of Too $hort in this clip. To my knowledge, $hort was making positive rap songs during his independent days with 75 Girls. Songs such as Girl, That's Your Life and Coke Dealers are two that come to mind.
That more sparse remix (or maybe it was actually the original version🤔) of "I Didn't Mean To" was everything! This was back when Yo! MTV Raps had a tendency to play the a55 versions ...eg Punks Jump Up by Brand Nubian.
Aww man as a huge too short fan I love and loved his positive songs!!!! Too short always had a positive side and a dirty side. I think if u take short’s positive songs away it would take a huge chunk out of his music in whole. Short’s positive songs were just as good as his dirty songs. Short is definitely in the top 5
What’s up to casual? He’s breaking down when rappers be talking about their lyrics. He said what does the trunk mean but he won’t talk about guns. I feel you, bro. You shot out the boogie down production and shot out to the West Coast casual.
He said in a documentary you can sample him he will never come after you....I always took that as" my label or whoever owns my publishing /masters will tho" he had a wicked grin when he said it 🤣🤣🤣
Mainstream hip hop in California was different from Oakland local exposure. First short song I heard was The Ghetto. He’s speaking from a specifically Bay Area perspective.
@Crispin Deresenn the ghetto was radio friendly enough for a ten year old to hear it. LA ha Ice Cube snd NWA everywhere. Too Short gained National notoriety at that time.
Who is fried from the 90's? You must be talking about the west coast. That's a lie. The only person who might be that is maybe snoop. I have not seen any 90's or 80's mcs that can't talk. That's this new generation 100 percent. On interviews incoherent. Complete lies. That's the definition of fried. You can't remember anything or speak like a brain damage boxer. That ain't Nas, Ice Cube, LL Cool J, Wu Tang Clan, Fugees, Mobb Deep, KRS who doesn't smoke and more. Souls of mischief etc. I have seen a lot of shows and they are normal. Del from Oakland did a lot of different drugs. He is still coherent in interviews. I can pull up so many Vlad interviews of rappers fucked up on pills like a heroin addict.
They are called new school old school to Gen X was mid 80's early 80's rap. Like sugar hill gang with the abc rhymes. I'm an mc so giving you the correct shit. I was rhyming with some of the greats in cyphers back then after shows.
This saddens me 2 hear 👂 I love Krs one but Souls of Mischief are legendary 2 Del the funky homosapien hieroglyphics are beast good 2 see u casual I love y’all and you’re legends in Memphis by the way my nomen is Memphis Egypt bka Menefer Kemaat Ptah Amen Bey 🇲🇦🙌🏿
KRS was not Dissing Heiro.....he gotta lotta love for Bay Area underground groups....not to mention KRS and Souls of Mischief was both signed to Jive.....Short was too ironically.
I think Short’s sound just matured. The sh*t he was saying was on point. U can’t feed the people with just negativity. They’ll think ur selling them out. Even Rudy Ray Moore said collective communal type sh*t.
Wait what... Too Short one of the best rappers ever???? Da'fuck.... nah Bruh. He's unique just like E 40 but he doesn't have enough attributes as an emcee to be the best ever
Not gonna lie.. As much as i love Cas... Who's it on made me start not. Liking Hiero. "In Anguish you strange bitch.". I feel like was the seed for what i call the Halifax white rapper style. Mm. No.
In 1997, Opio told me that Krs One gave him dap after he spit a freestyle in New Orleans on a radio station. He was Hella juiced about that.
Fear itself will forever remain one of the pinnacle albums ever of hip hop, hair raising lyricism
"I write raps... and when niggas bite, I clap... because they shit sound better now." LMAO!! That's one of my favorite opening lines of all time. These guys literally reinvigorated battle culture. You can tell that those bars were inspired by his time in ciphers, dismantling emcees.
Beats too.😊

LOL.........I remember those times/days because in nyc.....WE DRESSED THE SAME WAY WITH THE SAME name brands!
Cool
Thought it was just me from N.C.😆🫡
Met Souls and Casual a couple of times in Scotland,Holland,Germany. Always happy to meet,talk,listen….smoke!
Well said Casual!!!! Super underrated MC!!
Fear Itself was always in rotation in my tape deck whenever I made the 3 hr drive from/to college every weekend.
I'm on this one SB, my favorite Casual joint has to be Later On, which I peeped a plaque for in his background!
Flowers to the channel, the guests, viewers, and the culture.
Bro "I Didn't Mean To" was and still is my jam!
That beat was 🔥🔥🔥…and biggie killed it
@@keezdahalfpint1408 biggie use his style while freestyle. Smash Rockwell showed big
@@michaelallen8112 I can’t hear his style in biggies flow on that…casual had more of a grand puba flow on the original
It should have been a bigger single then it was. It checked all the boxes
One of the best channels on TH-cam!! Great interviews...
I always like the souls of mischief and casual I like casual perspectives and how he gives people who came before him and how he don’t back down and how he ain’t afraid to speak his mind
I rocks with the whole Heiro movement… salute… salute Soren
Thanks 🙏 Soren , can you do more interviews on casual?
Spring 94-Didn’t Mean To was my joint. My theme song lol. Underrated hip hop legend
I dig what Cas was saying about Too $hort, like if all of a sudden, Wesley Pipes decided to get real righteous and start coming at people like he the new Jesse Jackson or something - you're gonna be like, ummmm, wait a minute... And yes, I said, Wesley Pipes...
That nigga talked too much…..
BIG shout out to Casual for being "interview ready" with the clean mic sound.
KRS One wasn't dissing them. He says Frisco Disco, the disc is like a Nabisco, Chocolate chip cookie, don't f with me rookie. Frisco Disco is a song classic breakbeat.
What is the song name?
@@bigcav925 hip hop vs rap
He called him soft honestly reading what u read.
Frisco Disco By Eastside Connection
Yeah I always thought of it as typical KRS filler rhymes, and honestly I'm not convinced they aren't
BiggUpz Casual Knowledge Rein Supreme Facts KRS ☝️👑💜👑
HIERO TO THIS DAY MADE IT PLAIN AND SIMPLE THAT YOU COULD BE YOU WHERE EVER U CAME FROM.... SALUTE TO THAT CREW!!!!!!!! THEM AND FREESTYLE FELLOWSHIP, GOOD LIFE EMCEES AND THE LIST GOES ON FOREVER OF SETS THAT WERE PUTTING IT DOWN DIFFERENTLY AS "GANGSTA".
Amazing Emcee! love and have the most from him, Biggies best Emcee
Salute from UK
For sure, @ezekielgskeen8607. Thanks for watching & supporting #UniqueAccessEnt.
shoutout to the entire Hiero crew! Legends!
Casual is underrated and dope
Mo niggaz got my back then Rodney king I always remember that line
I would've never considered that Frisco disco line a diss but I can see how Heiro would've thought so especially if that incident occurred before KRS made that joint. Rappers listen on a different level than us casual (no pun intended) listeners. 😂
KRS dissing them on Hip-Hop vs. Rap is a huge stretch.
Great job as always. Does the full interview talk about the Labtekwon/Souls/Casual/Heiro beef?
Soren you needs to go "live" for your show!! Have an operator screen and patch the calls into the studio like the radio stations.
Excellent Interview 💯
The "Frisco disco" line never sounded like a diss to me.
I always though Krs's "Frisco Disco" line was a retaliation to Paris' "I ain't pro-human cuz all humans ain't pro-black" attack on Kris' humanist position
Deep bro.. You know your stuff.. I remember that line.
Yep. Paris snapped. The black panther of hip hop...ima always bump that Scarface records,Guerilla FUNK!!!💪
KRS'
I think you're right. KRS was addressing an individual, not a crew.
Yo Big Ups to Casual aka Smash Rockwell
I heard an early Demo where Souls of Mischief dissed(mainly Opio) Big Daddy Kane.
Hieroglyphics was a west coast Wu-Tang damn near
More like a Native Tunges.
Wu tang meets heiro is one of the greatest albums put together
@@theoriginal668 Nah they wasn't Native vibe more like Wu
@@michaelallen8112 wu had more of a street storytelling style. Hiro didn't have that
Del storytelling is high ranking 💥💢 many of hiero crew storyline is there. Listen 93 miles in suns
Thank you Casual, Big Up!! #Sorenwordisbond

BRO CAS so well spoken

He's a great one, @mynameischucky.charlesleer4363. Thanks for watching & supporting #UniqueAccessEnt.
casual he a spitter...still love that's how it is.
That track brought me straight to this interview 😂
Casual smoothest flow in hip hop
All day, @RUSSIAN_SPY_INC. Thanks for watching & supporting #UniqueAccessEnt.
Salute to Casual aka my brother CM-PX!
“John be- similar to Fon-zie “
I read the Saffir battle was over some lines on cas album blown out of proportion.i love Cas and all of hiero seemed like a simple misunderstanding
No. The battle was started over Casual not showing up to a studio session Saafir booked.
SHOUT OUT TO THE BAY AREA!!!!
I thought he didn’t like being sampled on That’s When Ya Lost. Great use of a vocal sample tho.
He said in a documentary you can sample him he will never come after you....I always took that as" my label or whoever owns my publishing /masters will tho" he had a wicked grin when he said it 🤣🤣🤣
Respect to Dr. Ben and Sara Suten Seti!
CASUAL👑 Certainly one of the Dopest Emcees Ever. Young Casual was definitely not to be fukD with lyrically💯
He's an even better lyricist nowadays. He got better with time.
excellent interview!
Mainstream hip hop in California was different from Oakland local exposure. First short song I heard was The Ghetto. He’s speaking from a specifically Bay Area perspective.
@Crispin Deresenn I was 10.
@Crispin Deresenn the ghetto was radio friendly enough for a ten year old to hear it. LA ha Ice Cube snd NWA everywhere. Too Short gained National notoriety at that time.
Smash Rockwell!!!!
I remember plee saying he thought that was a diss
Casual has to be one of the most mentally present old school rappers out there. Half the dudes from his era are FRIED. No disrespect
Who is fried from the 90's? You must be talking about the west coast. That's a lie. The only person who might be that is maybe snoop. I have not seen any 90's or 80's mcs that can't talk. That's this new generation 100 percent. On interviews incoherent. Complete lies. That's the definition of fried. You can't remember anything or speak like a brain damage boxer.

Del from Oakland did a lot of different drugs. He is still coherent in interviews. I can pull up so many Vlad interviews of rappers fucked up on pills like a heroin addict.
You definitely were not born then.
They are called new school old school to Gen X was mid 80's early 80's rap. Like sugar hill gang with the abc rhymes. I'm an mc so giving you the correct shit. I was rhyming with some of the greats in cyphers back then after shows.
Like who for example??
Another smash!
White Crown is DOPE!
I told you hoes you get rolled through like a toll booth. 🎉
Oh shit!! Casual!! I aways thought him and Ope were the dopest of the SOM crew.
Cocktales my favorite LP from dog
This saddens me 2 hear 👂 I love Krs one but Souls of Mischief are legendary 2 Del the funky homosapien hieroglyphics are beast good 2 see u casual I love y’all and you’re legends in Memphis by the way my nomen is Memphis Egypt bka Menefer Kemaat Ptah Amen Bey 🇲🇦🙌🏿
8:03 schoolin
Yeah but years ago,
Too Short said he wanted to do more aware songs
but the label didn't want him to back in the day.
Facts , and short was good at it too
Well, shit., I think I need to go somewhere sit my ass down and listen to White Crown
KRS was not Dissing Heiro.....he gotta lotta love for Bay Area underground groups....not to mention KRS and Souls of Mischief was both signed to Jive.....Short was too ironically.
KRS WASN'T DISSIN' YALL ON 'HIP HOP VS RAP' IT WAS A GENERIC BATTLE BAR TO A ROOKIE; SINGULAR NOT GROUP..
I think Short’s sound just matured. The sh*t he was saying was on point. U can’t feed the people with just negativity. They’ll think ur selling them out. Even Rudy Ray Moore said collective communal type sh*t.
😎
I liked shorts conscious stuff I don't understand dudes mentality back then.
🤘🏾
Appreciate it, @deedabamkid. Thanks for watching & supporting #UniqueAccessEnt.
Peace to Soren and my man Smash Rockwell. Hiero Forever! Hiero is on a 93 city tour this year, go catch em. I'm definitely in the house.Peace.
Casual got those lyrics so wrong, lol.
13:10 - 14:08 💯
Shout out Smash
SOM > KRS. Period.
Casual is killer
WHY WOULD HE HAVE DISSED THE MIGHTY HIERO???!!!
heiro crew are amazing but unsure why it seems most of they shows have a non black audience
Wait what... Too Short one of the best rappers ever???? Da'fuck.... nah Bruh. He's unique just like E 40 but he doesn't have enough attributes as an emcee to be the best ever
*R.I.P. brother Saafir*
#townbizzness
No disrespect to Short dog but he the best worst rapper but a to the point story telling
Na he was dope in a different way. He wasn't a battle rapper so he's looked at lyrically but his song " pay style" was mad lyrical.
Not gonna lie.. As much as i love Cas... Who's it on made me start not. Liking Hiero. "In Anguish you strange bitch.". I feel like was the seed for what i call the Halifax white rapper style. Mm. No.
Interesting, @shaolin1derpalm. Thanks for watching & supporting #UniqueAccessEnt.
