"Im at the table breaking bread with the wicked and the righteous, its hard to tell the difference through a history of violence" hes on another level.
I've been listening to Aesop Rock well before he was part of Eastern Conference AllStars, I'm 38 now and I've been listening to him since I was 15, God damn I'm old AF.
"I'm steady as the fingers of a surgeon, aware the destination is absurd as the excursion, aware that the extent of the hilarity be varying the climax and the ending all depending on the version." Fire!
Actual best bars on this album. Aes has consistent quality, and Homeboy Sandman definitely flops on a few tracks... but when he gets a beat that works with his flow? God DAYUM.
These dudes make my brain smile. Homeboy on Oatmeal Cookies: "I want a dime piece that smells as good as McDonald's fry grease that isn't always criticizing my beats... I want a single to blow like souls of mischief in 9-3 so I can buy bobby sonic a diet cola I-V" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"I'm steady as the fingers of a surgeon. Aware the destination is absurd as the excursion. Aware that the extent of the hilarity will vary, and the climax, and the ending, all depending on the version." - Favorite quote from the album
Lol. You sure that's it? I always thought it was "Lice got a secret handshake that includes painting the landscape AND equal distribution of syrup 'tween the top and bottom pancakes". Makes more sense grammatically, not that that's saying too, too much. Lol
Homeboy Sandman is really good. I saw these two guys live and then purchased Homeboy's album "The Good Sun." His performance sold me, and I already had passed my tener to the sales man when I looked at the track list and saw "featuring John Robinson"!!! (JR of Scienz of Life is a Master of the Craft that far too many are sleeping on; check out his discog and the collab, "the things they carried") Much respect to everyone making this really real-music. If any of you have the chance to see Aesop and Homeboy on stage together live, you should jump right on it; these two are proper Emcees who know how to move the crowd. Free downloads, powerful stage presence, interacting with the heads after the show, etc. these attributes show a dedication to the music. One Love
Listening to this many times I felt Aesop out did sandman but after my latest review sandman trades his complexity for coherency Both of there vibes meshed perfectly like if you feel the same!!
Mud is the SHIT. I saw homeboy live with Aes for the IK tour this summer past. I listened to Kindness for Weakness for a good 3 months straight. Lice2 that wicked shit.
+Elisha Stutes Gaming (MothaFnB0ss) the first lice is beyond art in my opinion. though the vinyl versions song 'get a dog's is different then the one I find online. I think since the TH-cam one is a remix of a Linkin park track and the vinyl is not. but homeboy sandman is an amazing artist, Aesop is as well, and together they are just top notch
Hey, Rhymesayers, can you make the track names on the image links to the songs' timestamps like you did with Lice? That'd be really helpful! Apart from that, noice. Great songs :) EDIT: Thanks!
respect. i see you on pretty much every aesop tune. you have a lot of very intelligent posts and portray being a true fan without belittling what his collaborators bring to the table and all that. it's super nice to see, so thanks for that.
To be honest, these collaborations with my favorite rapper Homeboy Sandman helped further my respect for Aesop Rock. So much so I gotta add him to my list of favorite rappers. The guy is just unreal with the lyrics.
"Im at the table breaking bread with the wicked and the righteous, its hard to tell the difference through a history of violence" hes on another level.

thank you
double thank you
Fuck you

+Heyim18bro much obliged
These guys never sold out. That's why I think it's called lice, because lice stick to their roots.
Ryan McDowell and also cause their lyrics sometimes make you scratch your head
ROFLMAO
That's quality right there.
safe to say they’re doing it for the heads 😎
Cool. My feeling is because they get in your head.
I've been listening to Aesop Rock well before he was part of Eastern Conference AllStars, I'm 38 now and I've been listening to him since I was 15, God damn I'm old AF.
I honestly feel these Lice releases are some of their best works 👌🏽
Hands down
because it was meant for now
Aes is definitely slept on as a producer. Oatmeal Cookies is excellent!
Oatmeal cookies is so good
I havent slept A WINK on Aesop, ever. Hes always been one of my favorite producers in the game.
@@zacharydobrowski8796 right? whos sleeping hes awesome?
Every track is dope, it's mad they are all produced by different people !
@@Lynxchillin08 That's what the project is about. Every song on all 3 EP's is a different producer. Still waiting on the 5 new ones for Lice 4
"I'm steady as the fingers of a surgeon, aware the destination is absurd as the excursion, aware that the extent of the hilarity be varying the climax and the ending all depending on the version."
Fire!

NO WAYYYYY FUCKING THANKYOU GOD

Longer than that, and I'll get bored of it. I'll be like water or some...

Scott Johnson fucking fire!!
Woot woot RobSoniC
Pure brilliance! But why does Rob Sonic need a diet cola I.V?
mud reminds me of kicking narcotics/opiates. in a good way!

SpongeBob pj's dream In the deep space, sleep spooning a nuclear brief case
Damn this is an excellent qoute.
Goooooood stuuuuuuff
5 classics, so much chemistry
Bro "unequal distribution of syrup between the top and bottom pancakes"... Never really heard Sandman before but respeck
Benjiro Ikeda he was going line for line with Aes, this guy is nice asf lol
Check out Real New York its one of his better songs imo
Lol. You sure that's it? I always thought it was "Lice got a secret handshake that includes painting the landscape AND equal distribution of syrup 'tween the top and bottom pancakes". Makes more sense grammatically, not that that's saying too, too much. Lol
Ha! sense of humor is how we cope ,deeper meanings and laughter ,reality and brutality

Whoever Dan Hayden is, give that man a medal
And a blunt and a beer. He earned it.
this shit makes my head itch
YOOO WHAT THE FUCK YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Thanks again for another out-of-nowhere amazing drop !
it's great to have awesome music drop as a surprise
The catacomb kid is alive!
Wow, Aesop keeps putting out free content. This guy does not rest.
Smite Must not sleep, must warn others.
Smite the diff in doing it for love or money
Listening to this many times I felt Aesop out did sandman but after my latest review sandman trades his complexity for coherency Both of there vibes meshed perfectly like if you feel the same!!
Mewtwo666 Gnostic Word.
A refreshingly aesthetic alchemy of two idiosyncratic styles.
Sandman is sneaky complex. He hides it right in plain sight and most overlook it, especially on his solo stuff.
Easily my favorite Aesop collaboration. All three of these EPs are brilliantly hilarious. I want MORE Lice.
Mud is the SHIT. I saw homeboy live with Aes for the IK tour this summer past. I listened to Kindness for Weakness for a good 3 months straight. Lice2 that wicked shit.
Aesop's verse in Mud is my favorite of the year. So good.
whats the end of the "spongebob pjs, dreaming of deep space" bar? hook comes in and i cant hear it....
...sleep spawning a nuclear briefcase.
sleep spooning a nuclear briefcase, spoon sugar till his teeth ache....3 cheers, two for his team 1 queen ______ ________ ______" fill in the blank.
"one queen in the premiers" ?
sounds like youre right. Tough cause of the mixing though, hate when stuff like that happens.
Shit, this is slapping harder than the first Lice.
the lice mutated
Way more on point than Lice 1. Way more focused. Way less sloppy. especially sandman, Aesop is always on point, he is the point.
chrstphr Lol. Amazingly enough, I think Sand may have had the deeper verses on average on this one. That's saying something.
Oatmeal cookies dat Rock co. Kane Flow sample.
It's actually from "Oooh" on AI: Mosaic Thump.
It's the sample in "Oatmeal Cookies" (when he says Oatmeal Cookies lol) - and Derek is correct I was wrong it's from Oooh not Rock co. Kane Flow.
just when the withdrawals were killing me boy sand and aes provided a dose of the good stuff
what were you goin through withdrawals for? opiates or benzos?
Mr 42 sand n aes made for the perfect aesthetic.
best lice album tbh

The Lice trilogy is my favorite of all aesops work. Stupid good. Would love another lice EP
Lice is amazing. OG hip hop
god does exist and she brought us number 2
+Elisha Stutes Gaming (MothaFnB0ss) reference to homeboy sandman where he says 'I don't not call god a he. because God is not a male'
+Elisha Stutes Gaming (MothaFnB0ss) look up the song he does called god to hear what I'm talking about
+Elisha Stutes Gaming (MothaFnB0ss) the first lice is beyond art in my opinion. though the vinyl versions song 'get a dog's is different then the one I find online. I think since the TH-cam one is a remix of a Linkin park track and the vinyl is not.
but homeboy sandman is an amazing artist, Aesop is as well, and together they are just top notch
god still doesn't exist, the albums dope though.
Your god can't save you from the LICE.
Happy surprises! The best kind of surprises.
Omg I’m so mad to just discover these guys through Garbology. Oh my god Mud slaps “The number on my ticket read eternity” raw
The production is on point with this one!
Perfect
EPMD homage on the album cover, all in the dome, so clever. brillant work.
Nice!! Especially "couple things" = FIRE
So good!!
"Shift go the shape of the minions; started out simian, graduated ophidian" - great line
Hey, Rhymesayers, can you make the track names on the image links to the songs' timestamps like you did with Lice? That'd be really helpful!
Apart from that, noice. Great songs :)
EDIT: Thanks!
Thank you
Love Sand's first verse from Zilch--perfect way to begin the album.
OATMEAL COOKIES!
My favorite lice mixtape
I think these collaborations only do wonders for the growth of these legends.
respect. i see you on pretty much every aesop tune. you have a lot of very intelligent posts and portray being a true fan without belittling what his collaborators bring to the table and all that. it's super nice to see, so thanks for that.
by the by, nice jack nance
good to see you here bro, glad you still exercise your right to bang the illest shit from the goat..
