Aesop IS the greatest. No questions asked. The man deserves his acknowledgement. He's old man Aes now. I hate to think he might someday be gone without ever getting the acknowledgement he deserves.
I personally don't think he is trying to illustrate a failure or insuffiency. The way he delivers the final line "eyeing other things" and the verse about Da Vinci tells me that it's more about reveling in our temporary fixations, even if they don't result in an output.
@9:00 "THAT IS THE MOST..." LMFAO that's the most realest shiz ever is what u was gonna say right?? that he takes this crazy mundane whatever thing like drawing pigeons & ends up w/ the most relatable issue ever, getting overexcited about something that u think ur gonna do big things w/ & how there's tons of those things to give ur time & energy to & some just fall off
ive met aesop and he was unbelievably nice. Aesop actually did create the film score for a movie, the movie is called Bushwick. And a video game soundtrack for Freedom Finger
@@GeekCreeksong is about him filming his buddies skate and mobbing around town. Forgetting to eat, watching his friend jump off a bridge for fun, someone called the fire department thinking his buddy died from the jump, he didn’t, they got coffee after. This is after he had back surgery, reclining the seat back to take pressure off the stitches. Just a song about forgetting to eat cuz you’re having fun with your friends
I wonder if Aesop is on the spectrum tbh, bc he does feel quite genius. He’s written about his difficulty w social cues and people in general. I feel that majorly. Aesop’s so dope, man.
I’m sure somebody else already told you about it, but look up “rappers ranked by vocabulary“ it’s a huge list of any rapper you could think of and how many unique words they use, and you can debate over who is the greatest rapper of all time, but Aesop rock by a landslide has the largest vocabulary in rap and hip-hop
Ey man. What ever happened to that Aesop Rock vs Eminem battle/ comparison thing you did a while ago? I've been keeping an eye out for it but haven't seen it. Did I miss it or did it not happen or not get posted?
i don't think he's done it yet. i'm even searching the transcripts of his livestreams for Aes' name! i made a playlist of just the verses i know will bury Eminem & made sure they're all lyric vids & told him they ready for a live reaction anytime!

Love the underlaying concept of focusing on one pigeon and his correlation of drawling 1000 which he notices as being disrespectful hence the irony within the beauty of one. Genius and the 🐐
yo man new subscriber here, love that you love and appreciate Aes's stuff. Love your intro message about doing things for others without expecting something in return, such an important part of life we need more of that. love your vibe always looking forward to more Aesop reactions! Good stuff and much love from Hawaii!!! Edit: Aes is actually an awesome artist! if you look up the song Rogue Wave, the music video is full of all his artwork. Great song too! Also sidenote: would be awesome if you could turn on closed captions (CC) so those that don't understand what he's saying can read along with the lyrics since he goes fast. Awesome reactions as always, much love and appreciate you!
Hyperfocus, procrastination, burnout, distracted by "eyeing other things." This is all about having an adhd brain and not really about pigeons. that's my take on it.
It's about trying to copy what somebody else has done but lacking the skill and discipline to do so. You could take it strictly as a critique of what the rap game has became or expand it to apply to multiple other fields.
Certainly is about that but using his brief excursion into pigeon drawing to illustrate this. The Da Vinci verse fits the technology theme of the album and he shows how he is no Da Vinci haha Def ADHD. I feel that
You don't need ADHD to relate to the idea of having a big idea to create something but overreach and end up not being able to meet the grand plan you originally had.
I wanted to let you know that the track that Ren just dropped is once again different different but imo his best performance. Hope you react to It. Back on 74 retake /Message in a Bottle
Aesop Rock, true legend. I'm listening to that dude for over 20 years now still dropping dope albums.
Aesop IS the greatest. No questions asked.

@@apatternedhorizon Well, just regard all those who get acknowledgement These days. That says a lot.
Definitely give “Dog at the Door” a listen too. Equally as impressive. And it’s just simply a song about being slightly paranoid.
I’m officially requesting aggressive Steven! Such a funny story!! 🤣🤘🏻
I second this!
Funny but also "the bleakest shit I ever heard".
@@GeekCreek I ain’t even got the words
who the fuck is fuckin Steven?
"he probably watches movies in silent" is the wildest, craziest, and most accurate way ive ever heard someone describe aesop 😂
That was hilarious and probably true!😊
When this guy said he looks like the roach guy from M.I.B. looking for Orions belt I died.💀😅
нормально, текст вышка конечно, раз пошла тема про голубей, то зацени Cannibal Ox - Pigeon
This song seems as much as anything to be about how inspiration without discipline results in no real output.
I personally don't think he is trying to illustrate a failure or insuffiency. The way he delivers the final line "eyeing other things" and the verse about Da Vinci tells me that it's more about reveling in our temporary fixations, even if they don't result in an output.
There's a video for this with Aesop's pigeon artwork
Yo, this guy knows the dictionary inside and out ASAP. Rock is on fire rapping about some off-the-wall shit.

The lyrical goat.. Aesop has a brother who is a professor at Harvard
i never knew this. did grandma think he played for the cubs or did he rock mismatch converse? not that it matters but thats sick if true.
It's called being a Genius. They have different ways of thinking way beyond the norm.
I love that you give Aesop his flowers. You listen and appreciate and i look forward to every new video
Do some Hail Mary Mallon and Malibu Ken! Great reaction as always, love this track.
Salt and pepper squid when your hungry.
Salt and Pepper Squid is still ambiguous and impenetrable to me, but I find it intriguing.
You meant *Time Moves Differently Here?

Please do a Legerdemain reaction, the lyrics are so damn hard!
Been loving these reacts!

A thousand is a lot.
Great reaction
plus a thousand is a lot.
That’s why it’s gotta be an actual thousand on the dot! 😆🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I saw the DaVinci exhibit in Rome. You should definitely run through an entire album!

Idk if anyone stated this but he's an artist too he draws a lot, so he's just sketching pigeons all day his Instagram has a bunch of his sketches
Mathamusician was a fun word-fumble.
lol
Congrats on 80k dawg!!

My favorite on his most recent release. Great track about about adhd imo.
Plus a thousand is a lot.
Not sure if it's legit but I think it's about people and those who are considered less than (the homeless).
Prod. By Aesop Rock
“Mathmusician” is accurate as f*ck.
please do 100ft tall
He 's 5'10"😂
Best AES reactions
Fun reaction

To quote pirates of the Caribbean "this is either madness or brilliance. Youd be suprised how often those two overlap"

Yo check out Melanin 9 'White Russian'. If you like deciphering esoteric bars, the second verse will keep you busy for a looooong while.

There is a value to learning about Aes.
You suddenly discover you are not the smartest dude in the room and that's fine.
Aesop's Fables taught us a lot as kids. Now it's time to step it up a notch. Aesop rocks.
Yoy were right the 1st time, brah....He's a "Math Magician."🧙🏼♂️
Aes is an artist, in many aspects. He’s talking drawing them here
