Agent orange is one of greatest intro songs, ever. I believe it inspired Eminem and countless other rappers. It was so authentic, and different compared to others songs at the time.
It’s one of the greatest songs ever made in the hip-hop realm period. There’s a lot of them, but agent orange is definitely in the top of the underground.
Cages whole style with the North Faces and the Gold Teeth was crazy. nobody was rocking gold fronts like that outside of the south. especially white dudes. i hope he understands how influential and how appreciated his body of work was/is.
You're buggin', Gravediggaz popularized "horror core" way before anybody knew who this goofy motherfucker was and they were all wearing vampire fronts. Every rapper in NY in the early 90's was wearing fronts. Same with The North Face, everybody was already wearing TNF along with Polo.
Tons of people were wearing gold fronts. Lol. Also How can you forget about the obvious Wu Tang with the gold fronts? Smh. For I white dude, yes, but in general, no.
Bro why is he an entire rabbit hole of music I can't find anything for sure on him man this dude is fire bro what the fuck why is this dude just unappreciated
@@TheBeeShine I just found him a little while ago but movies for the blind That ENTIRE album is an absolute masterpiece Jesus christ is it good 10/10 I am just now listening to nighthawks 7.5 so far I'm like halfway thru the album I think the song never knew you was a single I could be dead wrong but that song from my interpretation it was a very dark song about a girl he was stalking but never actually talked to her idk lots of people think it's about other stuff from comments on TH-cam but some of his earlier stuff like the beef between him and eminem are extremely interesting considering the fact eminem featured on his and a bunch of others but the eastern conference album idk what exactly happened I've searched hours I'd love too see you do a full interview especially on the eminem beef I would legit no joke pay 500$ too see that interview cage is the only rapper that I've ever seen eminem shy away from or in his limelight shy away from cage is the only rapper with bars as good and in my opinion honestly better this but maybe some things ig aren't ever gunna be figured out I'd love too see an in depth interview tho on everything the eminem beef,how he came up, what his future albums if any plans are set,and definitely tours hopefully in the United States Caz if so I would be the first too buy v.i.ps and for sure love to do a meet and greet and get a poster and hat signed bro that would be awesome as fuck
@@justinwithrow1717 Very dope to hear! Cage is a legend. Here are 2 MUST-haves from his catalog; the album "Porn Again" by Smut Peddlers (Cage & Mr. Eon) and Cage's solo album "Hells Winter". Enjoy!
@@TheBeeShine this was a brain overload I've been getting alot of Howard stern reels with beetle juice and I was wondering why this dude is on his show all the time this makes sense😅😅😅
Man. I started rapping at 15, which was 1999, but didn't get really serious until about 2002, and stayed that way for 4 or 5 years. I loved Cage. Copywrite. Eastern Conference All-stars. I'm just blown away Cage is this pretty boy. Not at all what I pictured.
@@dullknifefactory when Movies For the Blind came out he was on a kind of white goon vibe. Gold teeth, North Face jackets and posing with a real python draped around him.
And I can almost see clear I start buggin like an insect and lay larvae in your ear. I actually just listened to this song last week lol. One of the greatest and creative songs ever made.
It's really too bad Cage went emo.. Movies for the blind is not only one of the best underground NY hip hop albums but one of the best hip hop albums in general.
Cage just broadened his horizon to not be so one dimensional as he matured into an adult and his catalogue as a whole is very progressive that's a great value in any Artist.
Yea Necro makes me sad makes me think of all my old friends from Heaven Knows What and I miss them terribly Ari, Illy rip, Mike even Issiac for fucks sake love you guy's forever
@@dedkat7necro did the b side song radiohead on the agent orange single so i’m guessing when they was making that he programmed the drums for agent orange over the loop riz had originally made and recorded the song with cage.
Hey guys i just wanted to let yall know i made a blend tape with classic cage over classic necro beats. I tried posting link but it hid the comment. Cage so obscure today i just thought id let yall know since this interview about both incase ya interested in what theyd sound like if they never fell apart. Its on my page. Classic interviews btw. Ive watched it dozens of times over the years.
I either bruised Necro's ego or my poetry was too real and made him self reflect, "the king of death rap" told me I needed therapy. That's a compliment and I have a diss track (work in progress) I've made 3 different versions. I'm commissioning the artwork Friday. My track isn't on TH-cam yet.
No way I’ve always wondered about cage never knew what he was actually like. That album (you all know which one I’m talking about) is un fucking real and shit on Eminem
I wondered about him to. I always heard Eminem bit his style not sure if it’s true or not. So I just went and searched up cage. The first song I clicked on was called “shoot frank” and in the first 45 seconds of the song he’s biting Eminem’s whole flow and rhyme scheme. So now I’m confused.
I can remember being on holiday in Crete, back in 1998, and being the rebellious little twat i was, playing "agent orange" loud AF. The people round us were agast. F"in brilliant.
Shit you would prob be lucky to get any money nowadays……… now they will just steal your shit and act like you’re crazy ……… on the crazy note ……. Why do our artists/ creatives end up in psych hospitals ……… I ended up in a psych hospital when I was 15 as well …. The meds they put me On and that whole experience was the beginning of not only My creative energy being destroyed but my confidence….. I went from an honors art student …. To me not having the motivation or drive anymore ….. that creative voice seemed to get silenced in my head ……… and I’ve just kinda noticed a weird pattern recently of some artists talking about being convinced when they were in their teens ( going through puberty/adolescents ) that something was wrong with them that required medication……… the damage these doctors did to my life and mental wellbeing was disgusting….. but when your a minor it’s not you they have to convince…… it’s your parents ….. and all you have to do is scare the shit out of the parents and they will allow the liscenced DR to have their way with a teenager…… but I’ve seen enough stories now that paint similar patterns to know it can’t be organic …. It’s psychological warfare targeted at creative/disagreeable people….. the non conformists ….. I could go on and on ……. The crap I went through was fraudulent and they knew it ……
How did Eminem body him? They ain’t never battled other than a few lines here and there in some songs. Other than that though there’s nothing to show that he got bodied, yeah Eminem is way bigger and had more success. B😮t cage remained underground. I love Eminem, but In my opinion Cage would’ve gave Em a good run for his money. “Movies for the Blind” and “Leak Bros” are on of the hardest rap albums.
@@TheBeeShine No personal intimate knowledge but Necro has stated 100's times through out his whole career about how it went down. Like I said, I don't know either of them intimately but everytime Necro has ever been asked about this track from the time it was made to modern day, his story remains the same.
@@TheBeeShine also no hate at all. Just a guy who pays attention to and loves hip hop. Look up any video where Necro talks about Cage. His story never changed. I believe him. Necro seems to be about money and good business but he really seems upset about this one to the point he gets upset when people play the beat. I figure it was a hit! If it makes him upset it could only be because he never got his proceeds
Yeah that's facts. The reason Necro absolutely despises Cage was initially because he never received any payment for the production of Agent Orange. Among other shit over the years of course... Necro tells a story about bringing Cage to Carnarse, Brooklyn and all of Necro' goons were gonna rob him 😆
The Agent Orange demo is a piece of history
"It was me Alex..." Classic track.
Thanks for watching!
dope ass song. fuck i miss our era
“And 3 of my mans!”
“There was me”
@@SillyGooseAlex boutta say😂
Agent Orange is my #1 favorite song, I love singing that shit as loud as i can lol
I am getting chills just THINKING of the beat right now. Top ten best beats of all time easily, the song is up there also.
Necro and cage sound the same
@@LEFT4eV3r Do you even have ears?
Didnt really talk about MEETING Necro but I liked the video
He wrote it on a whopper wrap😂, legend
Indeed! Cage the great!

Agent orange is one of greatest intro songs, ever. I believe it inspired Eminem and countless other rappers. It was so authentic, and different compared to others songs at the time.
agreed - the shogun assassin sample with the clockwork orange soundtrack and cages fire verses is unbeatable combination.
It's also untouched 🔥🔥
It’s one of the greatest songs ever made in the hip-hop realm period. There’s a lot of them, but agent orange is definitely in the top of the underground.
As soon as you hear u no its a necro beat 👌
Taking calls at burger King to book shows is hilarious. I respect him for talking about it
That song is fire Cage I remember hearing it on hot 97 late night when they played underground hiphop.
Cages whole style with the North Faces and the Gold Teeth was crazy. nobody was rocking gold fronts like that outside of the south. especially white dudes. i hope he understands how influential and how appreciated his body of work was/is.

Listen to nighthawks cage and camu
Bro is 50 looking like he's on MySpace in 2004
This is from 2012 tbf
Glad i found out about this gem. Hip hop history directly from the source. Cage seems like he’s very self aware
Thanks for watching, Phil!
Such a real detailed story, and one we feel we can relate to as rappers. Good shit!
This dude is a legend
Indeed! Thanks for watching!
💯 Facts homie!
Man. I started rapping at 15, which was 1999, but didn't get really serious until about 2002, and stayed that way for 4 or 5 years. I loved Cage. Copywrite. Eastern Conference All-stars. I'm just blown away Cage is this pretty boy. Not at all what I pictured.
He used to look so much different in his drug days. Late 90’s early 2000’s he looked much fatter and thugged out
This is a very old interview. Cage looks old as hell now. Still a legend even if he's on some weird goth boy shit now lol
@@dullknifefactory yeah he hangs out with my cousin’s friend all the time. Daryl Palumbo
@@dullknifefactory when Movies For the Blind came out he was on a kind of white goon vibe. Gold teeth, North Face jackets and posing with a real python draped around him.

Love me some Chris Palco! Peace from Florida.
I had beef with Cage in 2012. We had a back and forth. But I’ll always respect him as an artist and wish him the best
Where? Dc?
And I can almost see clear I start buggin like an insect and lay larvae in your ear. I actually just listened to this song last week lol. One of the greatest and creative songs ever made.
"People said his brain was infected by devils" - Shogun Assassin. The cleanest, most eerie sample ever.
The only good thing that ever came from dubbing a japanese movie😅
He went from a B-Boy to Edward Furlong lol
It's really too bad Cage went emo.. Movies for the blind is not only one of the best underground NY hip hop albums but one of the best hip hop albums in general.
I would rank Hell's Winter up there also
I like Kill the Architect. His lyrics are just as prolific as his early stuff, he’s just a different guy. His Sam Hill stuff has been fun too.
@@fgsdgd1 Sam Hill is a trip hahaha
I couldn’t disagree more
His emo side is where the dark lyrics came from, he never wanted to be mainstream
Cage is a 🐐
Cage and Soulja Boy broke into the industry while working at Burger King!!! 🍔 👑
🎶🎤🎵🎛🎶🎚🎼🎹

Why does he never talk about Smut Peddlers?
Cage just broadened his horizon to not be so one dimensional as he matured into an adult and his catalogue as a whole is very progressive that's a great value in any Artist.
Agreed. Hell's Winter is my favorite project from him.
Yea Necro makes me sad makes me think of all my old friends from Heaven Knows What and I miss them terribly Ari, Illy rip, Mike even Issiac for fucks sake love you guy's forever
what year was this interview
There had to be a story that gritty to come up with that masterpiece of a song and beat.
I hear him mention DJ Riz, but not Necro. Did Necro produce all versions of the Agent Orange beat, or did Riz?
Necro did but Cage and Necro had a falling out lol
@@dedkat7necro did the b side song radiohead on the agent orange single so i’m guessing when they was making that he programmed the drums for agent orange over the loop riz had originally made and recorded the song with cage.
Agent Orange = Masterpiece
was that the Burger King on Dolson Ave in the Shop Rite plaza?
Where is bro now?
Saw him and necro play wetlands in nyc
Goretex is a child molester
"...the illest 4 letter word, observe as I serve...."
But he didn't talk about how he linked up with Necro to produce the beat?
Wrote Agent Orange on a wrapper.
Whopper Rapper ;)
