    This is X's first song, and the beat is fire!

  • @exzisd
    @exzisd 4 ปีที่แล้ว +276

    Firstly want to say this is a great first song by X. In some ways it reminds me of Dance With The Devil by Immortal Technique and the transition shows inspiration from Odd Future both obviously the beat but perhaps even more-so the vulgarity of the lyrics. Very stylish in the mixture of sounds on this for his first song. Very telling of his later work in many of its collective aspects. Vice City will probably always be my favorite earlier song from X it just has some magic to it. This has something special to it as well. Found out about this from Trap Lore Ross and its weird because I saw the X interview on No Jumper when he first talked about this song but didn't remember hearing him mention this because at the time to me he was kind of just another rapper being interviewed on the show. I got into the music after but missed this track until now. Its cool to discover the early stuff like this. The beat is sparse and bizarre, I like the backtracking and thinking that maybe his mother made him do that or maybe he chose that for some reason. The flow is more like classic boombap and well told you can tell he wasn't singing but his Jamaican roots were coming out early on here which is surprising and almost reminds me of Matisyahu for some reason even though Matisyahu is not Jamaican. Even the album artwork shows a bit of influence for his aesthetic. This song was really like a seed for his career's work. At 15 talking about these topics shows an awareness to some heavy subject matter and also an understanding that life isn't always fair. It shows a sort of wisdom or coming of age and growing up fast in a way but also seems dialed back like he wasn't rapping for shock value.

      It was deleted in the 1st half of 2015 from soundcloud which is why it was lost for about 4-5 years because a discord server called XXX & SKI HUB. They bought it for 4500$ which Cleo was okay with because they could use it for the Documentary i think.

      I feel like I grew up seeing the world in the same light that x did, what I’ve found is nobody wanna face the dark truth till its too late, I wouldn’t wanna be an willfully ignorant person, in a void of knowing someone you love is in pain in some way.. and do nothing, fuck think of all the pain that could be prevented from your loved ones experiencing, if you have insight about what could possibly affect and bring on your downfall, or theirs, and you can change and prevent that, would you? I would in a heartbeat..love, power, respect, and whatever u want.....ok let me put it like this so it makes better sense, whatever you want In life, be that love, clout, happiness, respect, money, fame, ect, ect whatever you want, it can be given to you, as quickly as it can be taken away, and...once you have it, whatever it is...you hold onto it, for dear life, and you never let go, if you’re in the gutter and you need out, grab ahold of the metaphorical rope, and climb up, hustle up fam, and don’t stop till you at the top, you may fuck up once or twice, but don’t let that shake you, do what you gotta do, bc theres always hope for those who are, motivated, I lost my motivation for only a split second and my grip slipped from what I loved...I know what it’s like to lose my soulmate, to lose that feeling..When you feel your soul click w her, in a way that no other person can top, and even after that love’s long gone, you’ll find that it never ever clicks the same again, at all, and you’ll miss it like fuckin crazy... miss it so much to the brink of insanity, where you’d give anything to have her back, and you’d take back all your fuck ups and mistakes..but you can’t, i can’t..I know what it’s like to lose, basically all that I had left to love, I know how it feels to be alone for what feels like forever, and isolated, perspectives that have come from haunted memories, seeing spectre like ghost’s of my younger self as I looked when I was 16 manifest in front of me as if I was really standing there, chasing after them hoping to talk some sense into myself, tell myself to “keep my grip tight on that rope till my knuckles are like white sheets”, I feel like I’m stuck in the Twilight Zone the episode called Spur The Moment, whatever y’all do DONT LET GO OF THAT ROPE wherever it leads for you, take my word for it, I lost my grip on love and fell from the top all the way crashing down. Hard...it’s not worth losing at all. If I could turn back time I’d go back to age 16 and start all over again...bc this ain’t no living this is straight eternal hell for me, being chased by the ghosts of your past..shit if I was an anti-hero or something I’d be Hell-Spawn Forsure
