It is so legendary how black thought drop a real classic verse but still gives everyone room to breath and to shine . Legendary Track already . The production is insane
Lotta well informed lifelong hip hop fans have mentioned this fact - the “old guard” get’s devoured by the new hungry young up-and-comers (e.g. KRS ate Melle Mell, LL ate up Kool Moe, Canibus tried LL when he got older, etc.). Testosterone is a helluva drug 🤷♂️
2022 has been a great year for hiphop so far This project as well as albums from Conway the machine, Kendrick Lamar, Joey Badass, Larry June, Denzel curry, Westside Boogie, Vince Staples, Benny the butcher, Pusha T, Roc Marciano x The Alchemist, Curren$y x The Alchemist, Earl sweatshirt... still JID, BSF, Freddie Gibbs and more to drop too
Having followed El-P's entire career from the dirty basements / 1 bdroom apartments in NYC to now doing tracks with the Legendary Black thought is humbling. With that said he merked it! Brought me back to the FanDam days. Not to mentioned him over a DangerMouse production...can't get any better than that.
Nope.👉🏾 If you know you know. Since '97 when he was with Company Flow and dropped "Patriotism" on "Sound Bombing 2". Not to mention all his dope albums.
The way rocky just stood next to these absolute lyrical titans undaunted is not surprising but still impressive. This was bars to bars heat. Front to back.
Dude can wake up, produce Adele, go to lunch, cut rap tracks for any number of people, take a nap, perform some Broken Bells in the afternoon, get some dinner, and finish his day with his pick of another dozen artists in 4 or 5 genres.
@@nicolasmartin3609 he's not a lyrical monster but he can definitely spit way better than most people give him credit for when he actually tries. I think he's similar to 2Chainz in that regard
@@geekmac9349 well, I didnt listen enough to Black Thought or RTW to say Rocky's on the same level, but his skills are way more up than 2Chainz' in my opinion.
@@nicolasmartin3609 yeah he's better than Chainz, I'm just saying that Chainz is similar to Rocky in the sense that people also don't really think of him as a lyricist cause of the type of music he usually makes but when he actually tries he's much better than people give him credit for
Black Thought, Killer Mike, 2 of my favorite EMcees ever in life on tracks together. i'm thankfull to be alive long enough to hear it. Asap and El- p killed as always. dope
Rocky really impressed me here he wasn’t the one I was the most excited for but he had a dope verse this is gonna be one of if not the best posse cuts of year, I’ve always loved his rhyme schemes he structures it in a dope way. El might have got him tho, I’m kind of bias but he’s just too fire
@@joeg4589 how? On this song he makes up for not being as good lyrically as Black Thought, who is one of the goats, in every other aspect. Not everyone is extremely lyrical, but some people have really good flows and rhyme schemes
@diggy dub idk I think Dangermouse killed it! Maybe you try listening a few more times? I had this album on repeat all morning yesterday it’s so damn hot
It’s so nice to see sample driven hip hop is creeping outta the underground cuz I’ve heard a few tracks this year (& last year too) that would’ve been bangers in 87-88….I was around then & 80% of the music I listened was hip hop & in the DMV where I grew up hip hop was about as underground as it got….DC’s always been a Go-Go town
This is that 50 Cal.,double cheeseburger with extra fries, shot in IMAX hip-hop. This is larger than life. This is a celebration. This is rap music at its finest.
What a fucking banger!!! I was never so hyped before, since they dropped the tracklist a few months ago, i already knew i will be straight fire. Black Thought on the mic, Danger Mouse with the production & all these dope features. The song with MF DOOM is also insanely good ❤ RIP MF DOOM
@@milemile4813 the new project that Roc Marciano and Alchemist are about to release. Joey Badass’ “2000”. Larry June’s constant single releases. Domo Genesis with Evidence “Intros, Outros, Interludes”. Westside Gunn’s “Peace Fly God”. All great music overall!
Bought 2 copies (black & red vinyl) of this yesterday. Don't even have a turntable anymore but that might change. Heard it once and thought it was great. Old school hip hop is alive. Call me crazy but a lot of people might want this on vinyl in 10 years... kind of an instant classic in my opinion. Plus a Doom verse?!
unfortunately i think tagging the artists that made the video can get them in trouble regarding ndas, or so i’ve heard. on a completely unrelated note…. check out negative feedback / george muncey
Okay, this video was absolutely fire! I love the idea of everybody filming themselves, except Danger Mouse. But, what I like more is, this is 4 of my favorite Emcees on one track! Been sayin' for a minute now: don't. sleep. on. Black Thought! 👉🏾🤛🏾 RTJ 🔥
And my screen don't work, got a iPhone 4 Like the Wi-Fi broke, it's still a smartphone though Okay, like que paso, malecón, cabrón 'Kay, tough guy, don't take me for no fungi See you with my third eye, peep you just with one eye closed Uhm, one time when I was duckin' from the one time This one time, weapon on my left side, I'm gun shy
His production has gone to the stratosphere since RTJ1. So cool to see him realize how good he is with bangers and not just sci-fi beats. He toes the line well between modern instrumentals and backpack boombap. His verses are always great too. El-P will go down as a legend, one of the best to ever do it on both sides.
@@uzi978 Lol! Obviously you don't. He's been close to this level for quite some time now. Been dope as a mf rapping since Fantastic Damage and the Definitive Jux days. He's just in a mainstream lane you and other folks appreciate more now.....

@@adrianwilliams2816 you don't have to hold back when you got el-p and killer mike on the track.. killer mike's verse is godlike.
You explained it sooooooo perfffffectlyyyyyyyyyy!
If Black Thought wanted a longer verse he would have just made a longer song, knowing him lol
Honestly one of the sickest beats I've heard in recent memory.
Same here. Its my favourite track on the album and sounds mint in the car with the sub thumping.
@@harpervscmbc581 this and belize have gotta be my favorites, like sun and moon on this album
Killer beats and flow, all the way from Ireland!!!
This the type of shit that keeps your faith in humanity because you know that hip hop is alive & well. 😁🔥🔥🔥

Yeah El-P is insanely good. What a team up him and killer Mike make it's just crazy. They are the best thing happening in rap right now.
@Jeffrey Juliano Yes he did, my all time favorite indie hip-hop record of all time. Nothing compares in my opinion.
@@JEStheUniversual which album are you talking about?
@Jeffrey Juliano
Taking it back to that Company Flow........
I hate how the common public doesn't see El-P's greatness
Rocky’s just having fun with rap now
And it shows. It's so fun to hear him rap. His verse on Wave God's was also similar in entertainment value
He went off with that Dr. Seuss sh*t. 💯🔥🔥🔥
Ehh so/so. lol guess I can't feel the dude
Can you blame him? 🤑🤑🤑🤑
@@CannibalOX99 i assume your old lol
This what the future of hip hop should be. They all crush it. Black Thought will always be a timeless. The beat is soooo inspiring as well
Even as a feature ASAP Rocky always has the best music videos
I wish the man would try his hand as a film director. I feel like he has the eye and brain to create cinematic masterpieces.
Hell yeah
@@xbabu142x I agree
@@xbabu142x D.M.B & shittin me were directed by Rocky
El-P is sooo underrated as a rapper.
He might be my favorite after Aesop Rock and DOOM
He just destroys it. Gave me chills.
Swear to God bro
Nope.👉🏾 If you know you know. Since '97 when he was with Company Flow and dropped "Patriotism" on "Sound Bombing 2". Not to mention all his dope albums.
I don't think I have ever been more hyped about release. Each are the best at what they do... Gratz Black and Danger for getting this done!
I totally agree! Counting down the days like a little kid waiting for Christmas.
Riiiiiggggghhhhhht.
You are not alone my brother! This is the biggest most important hip hop collab album of the year
yeapp
ASAP Rocky always clean with it.
Black Thought is ridiculously consistent 🔥🔥🔥

Never would I have thought RTJ would be collabing with the one and only A$AP Rocky, all of you are truly amazing and straight Living Legends
❤❤❤
This song is amazing, just got the full album and wow.. speechless. Real hip hop.
EVERYONE WENT IN!
WE’VE NEEDED A POSSE CUT LIKE THIS FOR A MINUTE! THANK YOU RTJ, ROCKY, BLACK THOUGHT, AND DANGER MOUSE!!!
😂 yeah this is unheard of!! Dope collab
Please let's praise black thought this man is unmatched
Can't wait. This is dope. El and Mike rode it like the beasts they are.. gonna be a classic

A$AP Rocky goated for this collab
I like Rocky but was honestly not expecting his verse to be so strong among the other three. Man ate
That's what I'm saying. His verse was honestly my favorite outta everyone's.
Lol same. He absolutely snapped. I.mean you have to when the GOAT taps you up
I was impressed. I mean he had to bring his A game on a collab with strong lyricists
Phenomenal track! Everyone ate this track
I like El P but I did not like El P
@@kidindie6 On what basis?
Ok the song is utmost 🔥 but the video is so creative too. This album is going to be nuts.
Is nuts. Check on the DOOM tack.
It’s an EP it’s out already gggg

The dmv scene don't get enough attention imo but I'm talking about the newer scene tho. Like 2010s and up. Still regional
You always had oddisee
Soooo happy to see RTJ in this collab. I don’t think they get enough love and holy hell they are amazing. 🖤
This is that 50 Cal.,double cheeseburger with extra fries, shot in IMAX hip-hop. This is larger than life. This is a celebration. This is rap music at its finest.
this. is legendary stuff right here
Just 4 MCs in their prime swapping bars like trading cards. The talent hums with power.
Effin’ love this so much… So fresh, hard, punky and true to the roots of hiphop. Damn, I needed this!
Everyone did their thing but El-P killed this shit 🥶
What a track! Much respect to Asap!!! He went hard!
Thank you for these gifts I never asked for but glad to accept. DangerThought please keep blessing us.
All 4 if them are lyrical geniuses🔥🔥🔥
Im here for big asap !!!!!
What a fucking banger!!!
I was never so hyped before, since they dropped the tracklist a few months ago, i already knew i will be straight fire. Black Thought on the mic, Danger Mouse with the production & all these dope features. The song with MF DOOM is also insanely good ❤ RIP MF DOOM

gives everyone room to breath and to shine . Legendary Track already . The production is insane
Who's were from the beta squad video with Dave❤
👇
I can’t stop listening to this song
Damn A$AP Rocky held his own but this songs a bop
Black Thought just got so many flows. This album is incredible. Thank you Black and Mouse!
Everything killer Mike says gives me goosebumps
Such a sick idea for a video
The phone concept is incredible
Nothing released this year sounds like this album. From the beats to the lyricism.
🤔 Not even the new by Black Star?
Here cause of the beta squad video with Dave
Wooow Rocky beat this 🧨
It’s like hearing horses in the distance and knowing the calvery is coming for backup and saving the town from some ol bullshit . This one is dope
Could've been used for Django 💯
the way the voices are recorded is very good, feels far away, like in the past/future or some other dimension, hard to explain. very good track.
the echo is ethereal
The BMW M3 E46 GTR never revved this hard!!!
Dope and Rocky did his thing 🔥🔥🔥
Gotta have this track on REPEAT!
one of the hardest tracks of the year
How is this video so incredible? They aren't doing anything special😢 but I'm fucking impressed
I totally get you
Awge has to be involved somehow, the iphone is centralized regardless of the actions happening in the video. Very sick!

@@itscameronwalls I see what you did there. Legend
I hate how legendary collabs like this aren't as mainstream all that falsified Hip Hop. At least I know where the real music is at 🙏
This was a dope line up. Not sure if asap really fit but it was dope to see him on a joint with black thought
I love the concept for the videos on this album. I like seeing the artists actually performing the song & it's visually engaging, but not distracting.
They all did what they supposed to do in their profession and killed it! 🔥🤘🏼💪🏼
This joint came off. . .all aspects. Well done
This is the best iPhone ad I ever seen
i cant belive RTJ and Rocky is in the same track... and it fucking SLAPP
This album will be crazy

I can't wait for the album like I am a teenager waiting on the latest Tribe's album.
most didn't get half of the jewels that el p was givin.....respect fam.
this album has some of the coolest music videos ive ever seen
They are making good music vids with low budgets
Super creative
This is big.. And it's exactly the quality I thought it'd turn out to be. Mike has reached another level 🔥
Can't believe Asap Rocky held his own wit Black Thought & RTJ
This should be an iPhone advertisement
I’m sure It is
Legendary lineup of artists and everybody delivered
So hyped for this upcoming album
The video director and editor need maaaaaajor props for this. It's super complex to put this together. Crazy
This is what hip hop is supposed to sound like... sample be bangin delivery bold n hard to a driving beat. Good piece of work
RTJ are the kings of royalties these dudes have built themselves an empire
Damn, this track is brilliant
I wonder how this was shot. Really creative
How am I just now seeing think. My favorites all on one track. This is truly amazing.
Man this record got me hyped for the album
This is art 🔥
I can't stop listening to this. I never expected to see these 4 together and they are all top artists to me.
Album is fire... No skips love from OHIO
Asap making a run for that status... with Features with the legends of Nas and Black thought
Rocky can rhyme, and he really tried with this. He's just with some of the greatest lyricists of all time. He held his own, though. Respects.
Rocky getting better n better, god bless that man!
