@@mrdyasi Actually you can find Yugen's lyrics on the Bandcamp page of 'Anima Mysterium' album. Some people also posted them on Genius but they contain some mistakes. I'll try to edit them soon
Have you ever wondered if some people were more attracted to the music depending on the video's colors and if videos with certain colors or vibrances received more views? (depending on the most commonly liked color in your culture/country or whatever)
Sa-roc, Koffee, Oshun, Yugen, and Sampa the great are some my favorite black female artists/role models. I just love the soul, intelligence, and confidence that they radiate when they perform
@@michael3556 nope its definitely the way the video is stabilized/shot. its not the fact that shes moving its the way the video picks it up thats unusual
the dopest female rapper to ever bless the microphone....ur jean graes , rapsody, say roc n who ever u can name ain't got isshh on Yugen ....she a Goddess
This video caught off guard!!! This shit is craaaazy hard. The instrumentals are really old school and the voice reminds me of Little Simz or Blu Samu. Really some Joey Bada$$ vibes overall
@@a.garcha199 why does my comment hurt u so much lol. Listen to what you want smh. Seems like you're just looking for conversation out of loneliness or some shit. I'm done
Beautiful mix of style (even if she has her own!) Reminds me of Wu Tang Clan, from the Afro samouraï soundtrack, and Joey Badass Great music, artist thx colors you're oftenly pleasing me ❤️
This lick is like my mind doesn't have a choice but to check out and my spirit can't help but be lifted. Aho!!! Y. B. Stay the light, remain the voice! Many blessings.
So many women in hip hop get painted, as well as paint themselves in such a narrow lane, that when you hear one lyrically spittin' that God Body topic, it makes my heart smile. Our young girls need to see in the media that they can be something other that conduits of sexuality, that they can use their intellectualism and spiritualism to own their womanhood and those things too, can also be portals to and of power. Yugen Morbid keep killin' i.
[ LYRICS ]
Blindfolded when I swing blades - cursed version of Cronus - my theses
Find god in geometry like Archimedes
Trace my vanishing point; fill the hollow with light from lasers
Make the mind state change like cloud formations
As star patterns split beams expose flaws in our time
Hidden complexes dematerialize
I’m silent-bomb-type, exit like Houdini - you couldn't see me
With a microchip and a tracker in each knee
As I climb to find the highest peak - fight the shadows of defeat
I’m Neo moving anti-clockwise until this cypher is complete
False prophets are the first to seek the shelter of cocoons
Like a new-born retreating back into its mother's womb
Outta this world, I search space like quantum physicists
Scaled the mountain like Moses only to find out where the lizard lives
I crush imbeciles and elevate seers
My order's silent mystics that levitate above fear
Colony of monks - who’s the abbot here?
Unplugged the mind-control device like system saboteurs
Took self on an odyssey, low key like Odin’s seed
Language mathematical, let digits set the oldest scene
From the point of origin beyond the species after us
Checking one, two over the microphone abacus
Took self on an odyssey, low key like Odin’s seed
Language mathematical, let digits set the oldest scene
From the point of origin beyond the species after us
Checking one, two, one, two
To recognize the order inside organised chaos
I roll solo, radiate out like the archetype of the logos
Trace the movement of the gods’ heavenly steps
Lifespan pre-set; eye-con-artists the pretext
Moving targets, our crow armies converge on crowds of men
We’re far from innocent, mentally trained on busted tenements
Immune to pressures from religious sects
Stay fighting till our own dominant thoughts find a way to manifest
Insulate the mind against lobotomized societies, dribbling
The most traitorous turn on the sibling
Many milling for millions though the system’s belittling
I honour family bonds like I’m Sicilian, ape-shit like simian
I grind elbows-deep in the dirt with root fingers
Spinning optics cloud the mind like mood swingers
I cast spells like spider webs
Used to rest my head on temple steps, icicle rhymes upon my breath
Now I’m perfecting the method in the madness, mountains out of anthills
My lungs pack cess, vocals caught up in semantics
Imperial, ears upon the great work of The Master
Whose concept’s in complex patterns like Venus fractures
I’m on an odyssey, low key like Odin’s seed
Language mathematical, let digits set the oldest scene
From the point of origin beyond the species after us
Checking one, two over the microphone abacus
Took self on an odyssey, low key like Odin’s seed
Language mathematical, let digits set the oldest scene
From the point of origin beyond the species after us
Checking one, two, one, two
Bless you guys are feelin' Yugen's vibe 🔥🙏❤️
Check out her last album 'ANIMA MYSTERIUM'
PEACE
Thank you for this. Could you please post all the lyrics to the album online, maybe on genius.com? 🌍 That would be maad dope
@@mrdyasi Actually you can find Yugen's lyrics on the Bandcamp page of 'Anima Mysterium' album. Some people also posted them on Genius but they contain some mistakes. I'll try to edit them soon
Heavily
Dope! Is any of her stuff on vinyl? If so where can I get it?
Yugen is fire!!
South Africa got some wild rappers. She is super good. kinda getting some old school vibe from the track. Respect from Ghana.
I'm ashamed I didn't even know about her until now.
The beat!!
@@kenzito101 you are not alone, same here. She good though
I do not know why the fuck I had given dislike to your comment, sorry I give you your deserved like
Much love from South Africa. YUGEN BLAKROK all the way
She did the most in that Black Panther soundtrack verse too!!!
That is where I know her voice from!
Dan Given sameee I was like who is she??
Thank you guys. Much love
🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
You have some serious lyrical skill, poetic and stylized. Im not sure how many I speak for, but hip hop needs you right now. New fan for sure.
dudeeee i loved this...3000
amazing and where can I get that neck piece
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
💓💓💓
This goes hard....
The background color is dope too.
Have you ever wondered if some people were more attracted to the music depending on the video's colors and if videos with certain colors or vibrances received more views? (depending on the most commonly liked color in your culture/country or whatever)
@@lemessycafé ha youre onto something
@@lemessycafé I like how you think...👌🏾
@@lemessycafé True and we Africans love our burnt oranges
somebody has to acknowledge how cool the name yugen blakrok is like as far as names go that is the coolest name ever
Yamanashi Takanawa My exact thoughts. Is mad cool.
Sa-roc, Koffee, Oshun, Yugen, and Sampa the great are some my favorite black female artists/role models.
I just love the soul, intelligence, and confidence that they radiate when they perform
Maaaahn, you know the Queens
Impressive selection, what do you think of Rapsody?
I love Sa-Roc but also Che Noir and Neelam are nice too
The flow and nonchalant flow is very much from the books of the likes of Bahamadia, love it and mad talented. South Africa stand up
Except for oshun, those are my artists too
"I honor family bonds like I'm Sicilian. Apeshit like simian"
What!!!? 🔥🔥🔥🔥
yah like really tho, what??????
Shes goes haaarrrd, old soul fo sho
A COLORS notification is like a magic wand whenever I click it all I get is a magical moment from magical tunes
agreed brethren! dope sheeet
I am waiting for a gorillaz collab with her!
Good call it makes sense
This woman was prolly reincarnated so many times, that she learned so much knowledge and knows to spread it with rap, a very popular poetry type.
Faxx
Indeed!!
It is mindblowing how she raps and wraps such concepts so nicely
The colors they chose mimic a sunset in the Savannahs of South Africa. Shoutout to Colors for the insight.
Lol
@@jarviselmerhath7769 lmaooooo. I love this comment.
@@thapelomaraisane8705 is it cause it mimics a sunset in the Savannahs of South Africa?
This looks like a really good quality cartoon.. The way she moves
I keep thinking about this comment and you're 100% right
That's called rhythm lmaooo
@@michael3556 nope its definitely the way the video is stabilized/shot. its not the fact that shes moving its the way the video picks it up thats unusual
Fvck yeah sis!!! Rap! Rhythm and Poetry!!! That was dope.
SA represent! 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
For real? We have this kind of talent?
Sorry I've been living in a cave.
@@kenzito101 it's not even like that. You know our media only shows us the same 5 artists.
I feel well Represented
@@kenzito101 checkout Iapetus Records
anyone else also thought of the soundtrack of 'samurai chamloo' w/ nujabes?? sounds super retro yet timeless ❤❤
oh, & SA represent 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
You're absolutely right!!!!!
Instantly thought of mugen
That's just the sound of her Battlecry bro
strong trip-hop vibe, i'm certain she's inspired by the bristol scene
Dope ass rhymes omg! I love her already, good stuff.
the dopest female rapper to ever bless the microphone....ur jean graes , rapsody, say roc n who ever u can name ain't got isshh on Yugen ....she a Goddess
Crazy you mention sa roc😂 I even put her above cambatta
Her presence, Vocals, Instrumental, the colors....everything was perfect!
Her flow is so powerful yet effortless and her lyrics are etherial... damn
She genuinely feels Occult. Her mood her movements her lyrics. I love it so much damn I wish Anima Mysterium had a full vinyl release.
It has one my friend !
I'm South African and I just discovered another South African talent, all the way in Australia. Big up to my people. Thank you colours ❤
Bruh, me too!!
OMG THAT VOICE AND FLOW HIT MY HEART LIKE A SLEDGEHAMMER!!!!
LOVE HER!
I've been a fan since she dropped-The Return Of The Astro Goth
House of Ravens and Neo.Vadar are dummy hard I'm with you there
@@gman8133 Been a fan since Chatterboxin and then seeing her live in 09
SOUTH AFRICAAAAAAAAA
2024 checking in.... checking 1 2 over the microphone abacus 💯 🔥 🔥
Yugen you got me held down for eons.❤❤
More 'raspekt Mecca! Much love from.Cape Town,South Africa 💜
The outfit is lit, the lyrics are interesting, the voice is dope
“Low key (Loki) like Odin seed” TALK🗣🗣
That was hard😇😭🔥🔥🔥
I’ll need 1,2,3 to 10 listen to get what she is saying, that’s the power of poetry contained here ...
South Africa 🇿🇦 is Yugen Blakrok ☝🏽🤞🏽✊🏽
As soon as I heard that voice I knew she was from SA 💕😍
True and the mouth such a teller. You can tell she was raised by the hard knocks debating bully type military science folk
"blindfolded when I swing blades" for some reason that just hits hard
"My thesis finds God in Geometry like Archimedes", that's where she takes me out🤌🏿🔥
This video caught off guard!!! This shit is craaaazy hard. The instrumentals are really old school and the voice reminds me of Little Simz or Blu Samu. Really some Joey Bada$$ vibes overall
SHE IS FROM MZANSI
She's been out doing this for many years lil simz has nothing on yugen honestly.
Automatically in my top 5🔥🔥. NO.... not top 5 female MC's. Top 5 MC PERIOD.
Must not know many...
@@a.garcha199 you can know many artist. Dosen't mean they're good. Your comment lacks sense 😂😂😂 but nice try though
@@Martin4489 Your comment lacks grammar, you don't know artists well if one display of talent is enough to solidify an artist in your top 5.
@@a.garcha199 why does my comment hurt u so much lol. Listen to what you want smh. Seems like you're just looking for conversation out of loneliness or some shit. I'm done
Top 3.
I love her flow, voice, and everything about her. She is super talented. Thank you COLORS, for getting us into so many creative artists
Beautiful mix of style (even if she has her own!) Reminds me of Wu Tang Clan, from the Afro samouraï soundtrack, and Joey Badass
Great music, artist thx colors you're oftenly pleasing me ❤️
I hate that I never knew she existed. Colors is really out here putting me on to my own people!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Much love from SA🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
2017 - ByLwansta, "Lindiwe" 🇿🇦🇿🇦 🙏
2019 - Yugen Blakrok, "Morbid Abakus" 🇿🇦🇿🇦 🙏
First time hearing of her and I like her sound already!
What a beautiful mind. Damn legit jaw dropped hearing her words. Wow so much power in her message
Yo South Africa rappers are NOT to be slept on!! This was fire on so many levels and that necklace is the bomb.com Yugen!!
Mid to late 90s East coast is my fave. And this just brought me back.
This lick is like my mind doesn't have a choice but to check out and my spirit can't help but be lifted.
Aho!!! Y. B. Stay the light, remain the voice! Many blessings.
Yugen Blakrok is one of the illest emcees to ever touch a mic. "Return of the Retro-Goth" and "Anima Mysterium" are classic material. JEAH!
She’s different 😢❤
Never heard of this artist, but this is enormously dope! Thnx for showing me another amazing artist Colors
I don"t know how many times I've listened to this
I am amazed each time 🔥🔥🔥
Couldn’t stop rocking back and forth and screaming what like an idiot. I loved this
I Swear Blakrok and Kaniff tracks are so amazing 😭😭wish Kaniff can hook me up with a beat one day .. it's so rare getting someone like him
We love you from South Africa!!!!
What a total badass. No one like her.
I think she just summarized my college semester
😂😂😂
babababaaaaa whos here for the talent of this MC!!! crazy proud of rappers like her
I'm happy to see a south African here
Second one ❤
After ByLwasta

This is when you have fun and enjoy what you do everyday

Yugen Blakrok - On point!
She Is Too Dope🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋
Highly Elevated......
Represent, represent Yugen!!! Much love. Been following her music for coupla years now. Glad to see SA finest rep on Colors!
Bless up from PTA. Shine bright baby

You should see her perform live...gosh 🙆🏾♂️🙆🏾♂️🙆🏾♂️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Really love this, the beat, her voice, her flow and the lyrics!! full package!!
Greetings from Turkey 🇹🇷
She's one of the best rappers I've seen these days
I obsessed. I need to see her live!! She makes me emotional
You and Sampa the Great are the Colors best woman performance so far! Damn good
You meet everyone twice in this life,
when they come..
and when they go.
That old school lyrist vibe! You feelin this🔥?
Her outfit.. everything about her is powerful
Colors! PLEASE bless us with the legendary Mumu Fresh (Maimouna Youssef ) on your amazing stage. That would be LEGENDARY! xoxo
The variety on this channel is A1.
"Trace the movements of the Gods, heavenly steps."
Yea, I'm here for this.
Colors always surprise me with their artist! Many type of music but every time with great talent. Thank you for that!
Woah this is South Africa!🙆🏽♀️
Bomb. She reminds me of Sa Roc
Kim Horton They are friends👌
If yugen and little simz hop on a track together that's a thanos snap right there!
I fall instantly in love with all of the outfits on colors🤤
The colors, The Dress, she looks like a badass African Princess !
Her tone is everything!!
dropped two classics back to back wow
I just bumped into this only today. Big up to Yugen. Lyricism on steroids
Kanif on production.
She's dangerously fly like, too fresh for anyone's good holy dam 🔥
fucking hell this is genius. every verse she's throwing deep knowledge.
I could hear that she was South African, i had to read comments to confirm and i was right!
Represent us!❤️
WOOOOOOWWW!!! LOVE U COLORS SHOW ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 represent 🙌🙌
This is crazy!! So happy to have heard her today, shocked that you're from SA wow. Following for more content!!!
Every single thing about this is dope, the lyrics, the flow the color everything. New fav artist
SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦
That crazy instrumental + A1 lyrics + the good ol COLORS vibe= a good fucking time
SHE ATE THIS!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
this sounds soooo old school!! you can tell where she gets her influence.
This is fucking awesome I loved her album
She is dope. Her voice reminds me of Floecist , yet she is more abstract and underground.
So talented and so beautiful... she could easily model, if she's not already!
YUGEN BLAKROK IS ABSTRACT THE FLOW IS TOO SICK THOUGH, CANT COMMENT ON IT YET HAVE TO SIT DOWN AND LISTEN 20 TIMES FOR ME TO GET IT
I love her flow. Her voice is nice and raspy. Love it 😍
National treasure!!! 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Yugen Blakrok is the bomb! wow!
Colors will never be this great.
Oh wow. Truth be told I only clicked by accident. South African rap is REALLY stepping up, used to imitate a lot. Uk rap did too. Exciting times ❤️🇿🇦
