Appreciate the comment and love for STEEZ, but let's be real, DOOM blesses his own beats haha. Either way, when I saw this in my recommended, my eyes almost popped out of my head seeing these two collabed. Amazing... RIP Young King.
The line "in reality vanity is our sanity then we lose sight when we're trapped in sanity" is brilliant. He saying following social norms is what makes people think they're sane, but in reality to be sane you have to develop a personal ideology, but as soon as you're seeing through your ideology you're no longer accepting reality at face value so you lose your sight and you're distorting the world with your philosophy. it also sounds dank as shit
Steez was a genius. He died of despair, not mental illness. This young man was acutely aware of what was going on in the world around him. But I believe his work, although brief, will stand the test of time. ❤✊✌
Fast forward 11 years and the group Pro Era is non existent, but STEEZ remains. He outweighs ALL their work if you come back. This song will never be topped by any of those members.
I get chills knowing I’m not the only one mind blown with steez since I ran into his music in 6th grade 21 years old and him and doom r really eternal to me
I’m 25 and used to listen to him soo much my senior year of high school and the summer before. Still come back every once in a while. This one was always one of my favorites
hes talking about chicago the blunt game, listen to the chorus. have you ever played that game? google it and act like you know. engage in conversation cause you miss the part where he said he grew up in NY.
lol its the base name for it, they use all over the united states dude, ive been around, like a male slut, but yeah lol, well im from new york, and when i was visiting my home town in texas, they asked me if i played chicago, i was like fuck yeah, pass the blunts puto. now hold your fucking breath cause im taking my time with this two big home runs.
Two of the most underrated lyricists and overall musicians of our era, and they both went out without the recognition they deserved. Now we comprehend. RIP STEEZ and RIP DOOM, your creations are timeless.
Lionel Swank just go with the flow dont let the world bring you down to there level the world is black and white if you see grey look closer anyone that might wish to oppress us, we will gladly devour
Hate that I discovered this dude and pro era so late. Heard 1999 at a friends house. listened to that shit like 3 times through while we played gta5. Actually started listening to steez when I heard his verse on suspect and like water. I'm always fuckin late. first j.dilla, then nujabes, now steez.. either way, respect to steez.
I know what you mean... Its like i Discover new music (but when i say new music its just some underground dope shit thats already been out for like 10 years) Give Cannibal Ox - Pigeon a listen
you good daddio its better to be late than to be a radio head, steez wanted a short shot and thats just what it is, just keep spreading that hip hop knowledge
I started listening to him a few days ago, and he already took Eminems 2 year spot of my favorite rapper. STEEZ is already one of my biggest inspirations (he destroyed my writers block and I'm writing like I haven't before). Before listening to this song again, the previous time. I was almost crying out loud with tears in my eyes over his ability and potential with his smile looking at me, even smiling myself when I caught something new . I feel like I've known this guy for a lifetime but I was a little kid at the time of PE...this is also my favorite song by his btw. STEELO if your reading this I love you over 147%
sometimes i come back to these videos and just ponder where his career might have ended up, what producers he would have worked with. so much potential wasted, i miss him dearly.
The fact that this was produced my DOOM blows my mind til this day...these two been such an inspiration in my life. since middle school and all the hardships. I jus wanna say PEACE TO DA GODS and hope everyone continues to flow thru life with love and willingness 👽✊🏽
I just found out about STEEZ recently and I absolutely love his style. This song is amazing. I love the DOOM instrumental, it compliments his voice so well.
"I got it locked on a indigo ribbon" An indigo ribbon is a sign of infinity and unity and is a reference to indigo children. 1.5 years since I heard this song for the first time and im still comprehending what he spits lol
I can’t help but think about what we’ve all lost. In an alternate dimension, STEEZ never left us and is the reigning GOAT. Imagine the breadth of work this dude would’ve released by now, almost 10 years gone
They gotta do something this year. Doesn't have to be new music, doesn't have to be huge just let this dudes message/legacy be remembered. He needs murals and shit at least.
HipHop does need more rappers like STEEZ!!!! Mixture of flow, intelligence, complexity, spirituality, reality, meta-reality and inspiration. R.I.P. Capital STEEZ
In reality, vanity is our sanity Then we lose sight when we're trapped in sanity Think about the two "I's" In Insanity And read between the lines, it's more to it actually
I remember being at a party and taking aux and putting this song on you can tell some people can't understand it and were not feeling it and then you got the indigo children coming straight up asking for the name. Steez still brings tears to my eye randomly. Or is it random? I believe he knew what he was doing. I dont belive the insanity god complex shit people talk about.
Wow, I've only just discovered STEEZ, he's fucking dope, sad that he died though, this song is blissful, could smoke all day to this, I don't think they comprehend.....
Same here. I'm an older head (lol) but I appreciate good hip hop music. Steez was a force, ahead of his time by 20 years if u ask me. On another note, I was fortunate enough to catch Jay Dee production before I realized he was the MPC god he was. Hopefully they've met, and collaborating on some stuff we weren't ready for here on earth.
Just jumping in the comments and say It’s 2am, I’m lit and binged watching every STEEZ related videos.. once again lol (last binge: 2 months ago) Saying yo to steez 🙏
"Then we lose sight when we're trapped in 'sanity', think about the two i's (eyes) in 'insanity'" I think that flew over y'all heads like the birds in his first verse. That bar was hard and increased my respect for this young brother.
Still listening in 2020. Steez was someone who really could have changed the direction of rap music but he reached the epitome of his spiritual awakening too soon and took his life as result. Rest in Peace Capital Steez
I've listened to this song so many times and I just picked up on a pokemon reference. "How hard could it be to spark fire with a drumstick. If the flows that I'm spitting are far-fetched." The pokemon farfetched carries around a stick (well a leek) but I can't help but smile at that line. Steez was so special man. Rest in power.🙏 #47
3 ปีที่แล้ว +1
Also "Ever since birds flew..." Farfetched is a Bird
"can you blame him for making an engravement? and leaving the game the same way that he came in They say we came this far from cavemen, how hard could it be to spark fire with a drumstick?" ... Holy fuck bro, way over heads..... rest in paradise STEEZ 💯💯
im a true fan of STEEZ and i hate the fans who say they dont like the bandwagoners. this way he will live forever rather than his legend dying with him and us. like we need his shit spread no matter whatway
Would've been a great to see steez and doom collaborate eye remember wen ak first dropped so inspirational the beat selections and the viberations from da lyrics he spit it actually hits your soul this is real music.
“Lyricism isn’t appreciated in songs and I won’t dumb it down just to business smart, the beat’s cool, but it isn’t from the heart and of course your BARS JUST DON’T REQUIRE THOUGHT” is the REALEST statement ever about modern hip hop Best Rapper of all time in order are 1. Capital STEEZ 2. MF DOOM 3. Earl Sweatshirt 4. Nas 5. Joey Bada$$
Steez was 19 when he died.... you mean to tell me he dropped all this gold as a teenager..
Having so much brilliance throwing your brain is exhausting.
He was rapping since he was young bro he was rapping for 10 years when he died most rappers today only been rapping for a couple years
Ss hard to comprehend
you mean to tell me this is not music?
He was 17 when he made this album.
DOOM and STEEZ are making classics up in the sky rn.
😇🎤😇🎤
faxxxxxxxx
Yeah
not everyone goes to heaven
@@mikelawrence8351 wow....

Thank you for blessing a DOOM beat Steez R.I.P. bro
Such a handsome talented young man. rip
he blessed more than one DOOM beat my friend :)
Appreciate the comment and love for STEEZ, but let's be real, DOOM blesses his own beats haha. Either way, when I saw this in my recommended, my eyes almost popped out of my head seeing these two collabed. Amazing... RIP Young King.
@@poofnewsales8726 i like that u put bof of their names in all caps...respek
It’s was produced by the blackbyrds “love is love”
He may have passed but he’ll never die. Those are some eternal bars, and from such a young guy

Nice interpretation.
Perhaps a small piece it feels like he is saying alot more than that though
Wow.

Viktor Vaughn What's up bro
"you mean to tell me that this is not music?" 💯 favorite line ever
what's he tryna say yo.
N.L.M.B people don't fuck with beats like that,
it's a nod to ben shapiro, a hiphop fanatic
Fuck Lil uzi is what he meant lol
Głø Tøvęñ Steelo unfortunately took his own life long before Uzi blew up
I don't think they comprehend.
I feel you
I get chills knowing I’m not the only one mind blown with steez since I ran into his music in 6th grade 21 years old and him and doom r really eternal to me
I’m 25 and used to listen to him soo much my senior year of high school and the summer before. Still come back every once in a while. This one was always one of my favorites
found his music in 6th grade too im 18 going on 19 and it’s still fire🤙🏽
Exact same here . Those years are very powerful yrs of our lives
Bless u all maybe one day one of us will be able to create music this amazing
Coming back to this after getting the news of DOOM's passing is even more heartbreaking. Rest in Power to both the Kings!❤️🕊️
The jazzy ambiance keeps me right where I belong..
Ever since infinity and beyond
[Another steez song]
As a Chicago native the title just makes it all the more reason for me to always bump it
Nothing to do with chicago, but yeah, real "hip hop" right here.
Nah its Chicago nigga
hes talking about chicago the blunt game, listen to the chorus. have you ever played that game? google it and act like you know. engage in conversation cause you miss the part where he said he grew up in NY.
Oh wtffff lmao that's what baseball is called in NY huh? Shit well Chicago still that city tho even steez knew that
lol its the base name for it, they use all over the united states dude, ive been around, like a male slut, but yeah lol, well im from new york, and when i was visiting my home town in texas, they asked me if i played chicago, i was like fuck yeah, pass the blunts puto. now hold your fucking breath cause im taking my time with this two big home runs.
MF DOOM and Cap Steez = musical aural pleasure
ORAL
emilio lee
Well, definitely aural as I intended to write, but could be oral too - whatever floats your boat lol
@@Bishopspipes agreed bud.
This song will never not make me think of them 3am mornings rolling in 2012 thinkin bout how the sun would be coming up soon
Two of the most underrated lyricists and overall musicians of our era, and they both went out without the recognition they deserved. Now we comprehend. RIP STEEZ and RIP DOOM, your creations are timeless.
i dont know what i was thinking listing to all that trap music that shit was getting old but this this stays go
fannywenny duality

SHY Cce worlds lost brother. keep your vison pure
My friend said STEEZ sucks... Time to get new friends
+Kirk Hamlet your friends a fuckboii
Just listen to the man and stop hating

Rest in paradise to DOOM and Steeze, all my prayers go to their families
2 of my favorite artists along with Earl
This is one of my favorite songs of all time
Steez was enlighted as fuck

doing it rn
2019 gang wya
I could fucks with this
Schnuts still here
And Forever
Yea
Schnuts i think it’s kinda not like able for people which is why it’s put to the side but steez was trynna pass s message to us and nobody got it
MF Doom and Steez would have held it down for sure if they were to have done more collabs.
Pro cakes was sick, Steez was smart widd it and killed it , then pro cakes 2 came out i shit my pants Steez made pro era like with his verses
i listen to all of them and steez was the only one that i have vibed with ,, he was conscious with it
Imagine a whole album produced by Doom
They never collabed in the first place . Steez used a beat from dooms special herbs instrumental album
The one and only king capitol will forever exist in out hearts
damn.... DOOM AND STEEZ... didn't know doom produced this until now.. been slapping this since high school crazy.. RIP
The fact that this was produced my DOOM blows my mind til this day...these two been such an inspiration in my life. since middle school and all the hardships. I jus wanna say PEACE TO DA GODS and hope everyone continues to flow thru life with love and willingness 👽✊🏽
Yes, sir. "White Willow Bark"... and then this gem.
Two geniuses ❤✊✌
RIP STEEZ, RIP DOOM , Mac Miller, X, Juice WRLD, Lil Peep, etc
Happy 31st birthday Steez, miss you ㄣ⃒

Friendly reminder music never dies. Steez still in our hearts even in 2024
DOOM was the most underrated rapper in old school and STEEZ was the most underrated rapper of new school both under appreciated rappers of their time
I had to pause after that first line .. He aint burning my speakers again 👏🔥
Word to MF DOOM
WHAT'S HE TRYNA SAY
My nigga .👋🏾 google... Rap genius
i thought muskegon boys had some sense
Shayne Urban what ?
You know our kids are going to be bumping this !

you listen to the rapper Asheru?
Yeah man , favourite song is I Am Hip Hop

word I don't think I ever heard that joint. I've only heard the album "soon come" and a few other miscellaneous tracks
I can’t help but think about what we’ve all lost. In an alternate dimension, STEEZ never left us and is the reigning GOAT. Imagine the breadth of work this dude would’ve released by now, almost 10 years gone
Unfathomable

In reality, vanity is our sanity
Then we lose sight when we're trapped in sanity
Think about the two "I's" In Insanity
And read between the lines, it's more to it actually
brilliance
i dont get it
look up the definition of vanity
L33ThaxFTW1 THINK ABOUT THE TWO EYES IN INSANITY.
Peep my recent comment
Rest In Peace to both of these amazing artists..
PRO ERA + DOOM + Classic !!!!!
R.I.P STEEZ
steez and pro era was officially hip-hops last hope before asap took over and changed everything. balance in peace steez 🕊
I remember being at a party and taking aux and putting this song on you can tell some people can't understand it and were not feeling it and then you got the indigo children coming straight up asking for the name. Steez still brings tears to my eye randomly. Or is it random? I believe he knew what he was doing. I dont belive the insanity god complex shit people talk about.
thats the whole purpose
Such a bright smile. RIP to one of the greatest lyricists to bless the mic.
still listening in 2016. pass the pot let me skillet.
Word
assuming you didn't catch it (not that you didn't) it's also let me scale it 😁
Joey shows love in A$AP's song 1 train, that's one of my favorite lines
I always thought it was "pass the pot and let me skillet" cause... well, pots and skillets.

They need to put this version on spotify man idk why they got that slow version
its for copyright otherwise it cant be on there
Just jumping in the comments and say It’s 2am, I’m lit and binged watching every STEEZ related videos.. once again lol (last binge: 2 months ago)

Still here till infinity and beyond
"Then we lose sight when we're trapped in 'sanity', think about the two i's (eyes) in 'insanity'" I think that flew over y'all heads like the birds in his first verse. That bar was hard and increased my respect for this young brother.
Rest In Power STEEZ and DOOM. I hope y’all are collaborating on some heavenly fire right now.
I come back here before big meetings to cool my anxiety. Still. After 8 years. Rest in Peace King.

Thankful that I discovered Steez's music a couple years back.
this is probably my favorite steez song brings me back to 2013
O_O
Production by.. MF DOOM?!?! HOW DID I NEVER NOTICE THIS UNTIL NOW?
el chabón puso ''Production by MF DOOM'' porque usó un beat de MF DOOM, no porque el mismo DOOM lo produjo.
I don’t think they comprehend
DOOM and Steez lost im so depressed and lost rip to the greatest
Still listening in 2020. Steez was someone who really could have changed the direction of rap music but he reached the epitome of his spiritual awakening too soon and took his life as result. Rest in Peace Capital Steez
I've listened to this song so many times and I just picked up on a pokemon reference. "How hard could it be to spark fire with a drumstick. If the flows that I'm spitting are far-fetched." The pokemon farfetched carries around a stick (well a leek) but I can't help but smile at that line. Steez was so special man. Rest in power.🙏 #47
Also
"Ever since birds flew..."
Farfetched is a Bird
@ You right I didn't even peep that. Steelo a legend lol.
smile back if u reading this
I did 😅
😢
We really lost both of these legends. Still in disbelief. RIP STEEZ & DOOM ❤️
I'm two days late, but the tenth anniversary of his death just passed. Long live King Steelo, RIP.

im a true fan of STEEZ and i hate the fans who say they dont like the bandwagoners. this way he will live forever rather than his legend dying with him and us. like we need his shit spread no matter whatway
