Lil B - "Illusions Of Grandeur" (Music Video)

[JubileeGiggles]

I can't tell but he's like smirking as he lip syncs this song. I think he's making it sound like a real story spoken by a stupid dude. i don't even think it's a real story. but it's so hard to tell with this dude. cuz yall know he's smart as fuck and playin everybody cauze it sells. cuz for sure some of his shit is real life, no joke. other stuff is playin with people and laughing all the way to the bank

[TresOjo]

Ambient Rap, Let a genius do his thing.

[markbradberry]

Super rare

[CHOCHAMONST3R]

LILB the truth

[1Anonymouse]

the most diverse,raw and rare bitch in the industry. lil b is the future.

[ComicSansFrenzy]

Thank God for creating Lil B, changes so many lifes with his music, I can feel what he's saying and I'm a suburban kid from Georgia

[barangatang]

its unique yes he is

he is twice as brave as EVERY RAPPER for doing something dif.

[Fhenry]

he should keep doing shit like this...

[SuperWow12345678]

Based Forever

[ggnub100]

did you guys even listen to the lyrics? he's talking about his past how he used to rob with his friend . like "two guys with bad thoughts" now he's positive. i just found out why lil b is different than most rappers today, and i just actually turned fan today. he's awesome man, very intelligent in his interviews.

[ggnub100]

wow his lyrics are crazy

[freezerburnfire]

@kushmaddness genre is BASED duh.

[IndeedItsIVE]

I seriously dont get it, lemme try to be objective here. First off, i ended up watchin this in my search for a "good" lil b song. But as an artist myself, i can honestly say he is bad at rapping. Let me elaborate, he has no flow or rythm, two essentials to a good artist. Please, one of ya stop praising ur based god for one second and tell me wut it is about this guy or his music that does it for u?

[TheDouble333able]

@IndeedItsIVE jealousy haha u an artist? lol

[REIGHNmINDkEY]

this nigga is doing something that i was thinking of trying he is using binaural and meditative beats to hypnotize you into listening to his tracks, he is spitting in more of a come voice to guide put you in the zone and make you focus on what he is saying, pure genius! he could say nothing and just because of the binaural it will catch your mind and make you listen.

[railrat69]

mind fuck

[oldirty209]

this song is like Fresh Water.. every time i Hear it

[AstroSoda]

So real im in awe of his lyrics

[coriejay]

It's as if every time I listen to some of his music, I feel like I can connect with him on a personal level. Like I actually feel the emotion and passion in his lyrics. It's amazing. I wish Lil B was my friend in real life.

[drpnasty28]

Wat he says make sense but to me it sounds garbage

[MitchTG01]

@fgysajknzxcn if you were a true lil b fan you would know based is not a genre, it's a lifestyle

[fgysajknzxcn]

@MitchTG01 lol true

[x30n0n]

lil b likes imogen heap i think ... makes him that much cooler to me

[MackD0322]

Used to not like him, until i listened to his lyrics more.

[ThatBattleboi]

name ONE artist who raps about shit like this. Seriously, i wanna know because i will listen to him/her as well.

[1IO]

@ThatBattleboi nas

[tweety14ification]

Man stop fucking hating on basegod, if yall dont like him take those fellings to your bedroom and thts when u going to realize tht basedgod fucked your bitch TYBG

[pollofritooo]

He must really like Imogen Heap... (that's the singer in the beginning btw)

[perfectPOISON59]

This is real shit, me being a robber turned positive as well. Having a felony on my record fucking sucks! I feel this dude he speaks the truth.

[turtlej333]

I'm sorry to the "fans" of this "rapper" but he's not trolling he was never trolling he sucks sorry but I tried with an open mind to

Listen to this guy but no not going down he needs a new profession the people who signed him need new professions I feel like going to each persons individual house who respects and truly likes this guy for his music slap you sit you down and put a tribe called quest on so your urges for good music with meaning and deeper values are met and you never look back or

[akingamongstmen10]

@turtlej333 How does that hater-aide taste son? #BASEDGOD so stfu

[pwned564]

@turtlej333 he's unsigned and still has millions of followers #tybg BEST MUSIC EVER PUT OUT HE FUCKED YOUR BITCH

[wooders0n1199]

@turtlej333 damn man,i fuck with b and tribe. you just aint based. listen to his message, stop all that useless negativity man. BASEGOD FUCKED YO BITCH AND MINE TYBG

[coriejay]

@turtlej333 Music is subjective. Ppl have different tastes. You don't have to listen to him if you want.

[xScooby]

experienced time differentiation and led myself to an ego death (6th sense "i see dead people" shit), got prescribed anti-psychotics, trying to find the hope elsewhere, cause i'm educated on the inhibitors found in pills. chasing my brother's dream without the extra lag. basically my world got turned up down with they proved the "god" particle imaginary, and we only give definition to ourselves in infinite space. i get the lyrics from all perspectives now. #basedgod

[waldo1997jaredify]

@kushmaddness dude u hve no idea wat ur talking aboutlil b does it ht way because he wants to and it is art so stfu.

[freedomfighterNY]

Damn this is some Tupic style shit. +BASEDGOD

[mulletman245]

I heard tha Basedgod does all of his verses the first take

[ClayMatthews11]

Its called Spoken Word (Over a Beat)...You assholes smh Grow up #BasedGod

[VansSkully]

If you not a robber you not gone feel this ,

[Poochieman2408]

Lil b is my favorite rapper hands down...ain't no one in the game spitting real ish now ah days

[FTPWGM]

Stay based and positive.

SO #PROLIFIC

[GrumpyPancake]

Amazing beat, I can't get enough of it

[JDiceAkaIronMan]

this dude wackkkk hahaha youtube should block him!. come to my page for the official wild boy remix feat. mgk now!!!! oh yea? dont forget to add or subb me ppl thanks

[LoGiK215]

@JDiceAkaIronMan cool u fuckin virgin

[ThankGodImYoung]

First I heard this I thought he was off beat as fuck, listened to it again and realized he was rapping to the ACTUAL BEAT and that's coming from a fucking drummer. Thank You Based God.

[akingamongstmen10]

Lil B is really creating his own sub genre within rap.Listen to his shit with the pack, he can rap in time with a beat. He does this out of time ish on purpose. BasedGod on you haters

[kattiediehl]

@akingamongstmen10 he is amazing. i've been listening to the pack for a few years and he's beast. <3

[akingamongstmen10]

@kattiediehl I don't understand all tha haters ae. Lil' B is a (Based) God

[AloneFX]

@akingamongstmen10 Its pretty much like poetry or somewhat slam peotry but I may be wrong there

[plungeybabie]

@akingamongstmen10 thats a real good excuse

[phillyfox13]

@akingamongstmen10 he spittin spoken word if u take the beat out

[akingamongstmen10]

@phillyfox13 Belee that, gospel shit

[sonicmann101]

@akingamongstmen10 and if you listen to it, he really isnt off beat.

[MrAyowill]

damn dis sum real shit yo lil b i got u on fb but yeah keep doing wat u doing bruh yo shit real

[SWGuruu]

people need to understand that this is lil b. people listen to shit songs and judge, this is the based movement. TYBG

[MercaStaphInfection]

if you're not a fan you won't understand him. all the dumb people who are quick to hate on shit and judge shit they don't know about don't like the basedgod because they judge him as an artist based on songs like paris hilton or ellen degeneres. idk how any smart person can't tell that those songs are just him fucking around having fun and they're funny. that's why i like lil B cuz he knows his real fans will hear his real music and he makes it for us. and it gives him a stronger fan base too.

[emesghali]

this is an incorrehent man slowly talking to classical ballads. not rap.

[anablast912]

i LOVE this song , i listen to it every day .

[jetsfool559]

lil b i know the lord forgave you right away. keep doing positive fun things with your music<3 tybg!

[efaw5135]

stay #ACIDIC

[Habufffff]

wtf is nice about this not only he doesnt flow which means u should atleast rhyme when u go this slow and he doesnt even do that he has slow flow on this song and still doesnt rhyme? wtf r u guys thinking to urselves when u say this is good music?

[efaw5135]

@Habufffff Exactly what i was gonna say. Can we start the #ACIDIC movement instead of the #BASED movement because lil b sucks so much.

[TehSwiftyy]

@Habufffff You have to understand Lil B on a personal level and not give af about if he flows to the beat or not because its just a barrier to artists like him to really express himself . Lil B shows that he can have fun making dumb ass songs and still get support from his fans and make songs like this, D.O.R and B.O.R which are his better and more lyrical and meaningful songs. As "whack" as he may be sometimes he basically started his own genre and people respect him for that

[kushmaddness]

@TehSwiftyy lol if a flow stops u from expressing ur self.. then ur not a real artist buddy... and if he started his own genre please tell me what the name of it is

[laridinhigh420]

@kushmaddness its called based music u dumb bitch

[LetsMakeAmovie23]

@kushmaddness he's showing you exactly what you don't understand, what he is saying is wrong with hip-hop rap nowadays: Flow is meaningless without a meaning to it. Sure Tyga is raw and has a sick ass flow but wtf is he talking about? The same shit Lil B says in his joke songs but Tyga makes it sound "raw". While Lil B doesn't exactly "Spit Fire" his music is (to me at least) exponentially more emotionally powerful than that of many other rappers nowadays.

[wooders0n1199]

@kushmaddness BASED RAP

[fgysajknzxcn]

@kushmaddness his own genre is called based. you should know that if ur a lil b fan

[mloafy123]

@kushmaddness Who the fuck are you bro? Every time I go to listen to a good ass Lil B song I see your bitch ass name everywhere trying to hate on Lil B, if you don't fucking like him then stop going to his videos and stop trying to hate on him cause you coming to comment on this is just getting him more famous with more views, so thank-you. Also don't get all mad at Lil B just because he fucked your bitch. Have a good day sir, go listen to garbage YMCMB. Deuces. Thank-you BasedGod.

[superkushify]

@mloafy123 amen.

[UGK17]

@kushmaddness BASED

[plutofarce]

@kushmaddness Shit hop...

[plutofarce]

@kushmaddness On second thoughts... This song's inspired me further... Gimp hop

[alestaire7]

@kushmaddness Based music

[wideopen114]

@kushmaddness the genre is BASED #tybg

[darn3ll1995]

@kushmaddness BASED MUSIC

[ATribeCalledBased]

@Habufffff Close-minded faggot. Define 'good' rap? Just because he doesn't conform to the norms of hip hop, doesn't mean he's bad. You're just crying because he fucked your bitch twice

[ChrisTVist]

im starting to worship lil b...

[fgysajknzxcn]

@ChrisTVist i know right

[smokeymk3]

I feel like lil b use to just troll everyone but his newer music I have heard is legit i feel.

[cre8ivmind1]

@4atlanta4 dude please shut up..lil b is awesome

[LandosTrees]

i want Asap rocky on this!

[MaccAdasTV]

@LandosTrees lol word !



[Khandhalha]

"They're both robbing for the supper, Lord forgive em." So cold.

[OhCanada91]

I am so blessed to be in the presence of this rare masterpiece, thank you based god

[4atlanta4]

Lol wtf?? Ok yeah ill give him credit he tryin to talk about sumthin but dude lyrics and da way he format his verses suck.

[goinHAM1307]

@4atlanta4 But He gets more bitches than you..

[4atlanta4]

@goinHAM1307 (shows how small yo life is) i gotta main bitch and a son, and i been out here fuckin bad bitches so havin hoes dont mean nuthin to me no more, and im not a millionair but my funds is good. this nigga is just garbage and your whack for suporting this lame ass shit. in no way shape or form is this real music his beats strait ill give him that but dude verses suck. and a word of advice getcha funds up cus these bitches aint shit

[GlNOB]

@4atlanta4 If you dont like his music DONT LISTEN to it.

[babymario]

@4atlanta4 Dont be mad because basedgod fucked your bitch.

[4atlanta4]

@babymario HA!! iiaght dude

[realelite9]

u fucked my mind, lil b

[Nutfuck69]

cant hate on this at all. straight from the mans heart turning his pain into poetry

[CBJBlover4ever]

Finally a song about real shit.

[Vocalur]

His words are deep he's pouring his heart out but it's still a waste of good music I mean the music in the background is a setup for some tight lyrics but his lyrics aren't tight. Still deep tho

[lukewarneke]

How is he "off the beat"? I don't get that. He just uses beats differently.

[TxIndoboy]

Based God, please make more songs like this !

[csabin17]

@TxIndoboy Listen to Illusions of Grandeur the mixtape and the I'm Gay, He has plenty of music like this

[TxIndoboy]

@csabin17 i know, I'm God // Cold War // D.O.R. // B.O.R. // I Am The Hood etc. but he makes to much shit music

[babymario]

@TxIndoboy Cold War's pretty good.

[MysticalJames]

He might get hate, but this is deep as fuck.

[MrYoungBLAZETV]

#BasedMuzik the creativity in his sound is flawless.

[yungdrastic]

Before you call me a hater, I respect this mans individualism, his hustle, his drive, and puttin' the bay back on the mainstream minds. But he does have issues riding a beat. And his bars are not really clever or thought provoking. But I "liked" this video to show support.

[kareembankjosef]

@yungdrastic if this song in particular doesn't provoke any thought in you then i think you missed the point. I don't know what you're expecting from him. Do you want him tumble syllables like a gymnast? Because that's not his style. You said you respect his individualism, well, his flow is a core part of that.

[injeaniouskes]

@kareembankjosef No, we just want him to be on beat for once

[kareembankjosef]

@injeaniouskes then go listen to "base for your face" and his "I'm Gay" album. He knows how to ride a beat. You should know that if you really follow his music

[injeaniouskes]

@kareembankjosef and why would I do that? I'd rather listen to grass grow

[Mystikal22693]

@injeaniouskes It's a very slow beat he's riding it slow (kanye Shrug)

[SwagSwagSwagBASED]

This shit goes so hard. I can feel this shit

[injeaniouskes]

@SwagSwagSwagBASED NO IT DOESN'T!!!

[swagsodmgcftbyzee]

good song

[injeaniouskes]

@swagsodmgcftbyzee no it's not

[dirtydiana122]

BasedGod, I used to laugh at your songs. Now I cry when I listen to some of them.

[kXpimpin]

Very deep. Very rare. Very based.

[enjoisk8r79]

People that say lil b sucks font know good music yeah he talks about gettin head but alot of his songs have s strong message hes a poet

[Sonnyice777]

This beat is tuff buh lil B is not a rapper i wud respect him more as a poet his voice n this beat dnt register wen i listen to him on dis... idk wat buh sumthin is off...

[ItsBigDaddy373]

Wow, this actually sounds somewhat intelligent. I am surprised, Based God.

[TheSame0ne]

@ItsBigDaddy373 If you see some of his more serious interviews, he is a smart dude, I think this "swag" stuff is an act. That's just me, though haha.

[ItsBigDaddy373]

@TheSame0ne Thats exactly what I think almost lol, I just need solid proof.

[funkysmurf12345]

@ItsBigDaddy373 yer a fuckin idiot

[ItsBigDaddy373]

@funkysmurf12345 How am I an Idiot if you can't spell "you're" right. Bitch.

[SuperfuturePDX1]

@ItsBigDaddy373 lil b's actually smart when it comes to music people just don't see past it

[Kidfrankie987]

Y dosent this Got 1millions views

[tweety14ification]

Its called a poem dickheads

[rberent]

what the fuck is the point of having a beat if you're not going to follow it?

[RedRare7249]

@rberent the beat follows him... how is a human being going to follow an inanimate flow?? that is what is wrong wit humans. OPEN YOUR MIND

[rberent]

@RedRare7249 wow....just wow.

wow.

[yungdrastic]

@RedRare7249 Your point is weak. It's called "flow" for a reason. See, I can tell you don't know your Hip-Hop. Pac, Crooked I, Bone Thug, Em, Fred the Godson, Rakim, to name a few can follow a beat and anticipate rhythm. And it should be expected, remember, they're professionals, and if I'm gonna BUY an album, I rather listen so someone who's gonna take their time to get it right.

[kareembankjosef]

@yungdrastic So because his flow is unorthodox it's NOT right. Look at immortal technique, raekwon, ODB, Onyx. These were all unorthodox rappers who at times, didn't anticipate rhythym. that doesn't mean they didn't take their time. that's their style. A real hip-hop enthusiast will know that

[StupidToy1]

I feel it man beautiful beat

[MrTank116]

PLEASE someone answer me... is lil b serious? idk if he does some of this stuff to just blow himself up, or what?

[BovartNigga]

@MrTank116 Listen to the lyrics. Even in his silly songs, he droppin serious shit.

[CKGHOST]

its funny how all the dumb songs is over 1 million views smh

[TheDSMovies1]

Way to disguise your very shitty rap skills in a shitty remixed version of a good Imogen Heap song, godamnit your life is a joke, kill yourself for the sake of the rest of the world

[GamerGranny]

@TheDSMovies1 Deep throat a cactus you cunt.

[TheAdamn20]

[MrArchangel101]

THAT NIGGA SUPER GAY & GARBAGE...& WHO EVA SAY HE AINT GAY U MUST BE GAY 2 ..STR8 UP

[Mattluvzunot]

@MrArchangel101 the fact that you are taking his music seriously and Lil B himself doesn't even take his music seriously shows how much you fail at life. Thank Based God the next time you speak sir.
