Big big tune!!!

[natebakeskate]

[SpeechMatic]

when i tried to rhyme like this my peers told me im doin to much i got to be more simplistic im a dumb ass 4 listening

[DJDisgust]

mr. lif drops some serious fuckin knowledge

my new fav mc..

[sk8ordie442200]

@DJDisgust fuck ya i know what u mean

[MJRBlog]

they give us everything we need to keep us tame. they say the planet is in desperate need, but they just keep mass producing all this shit in vain. Cause they know its to late. The truth is not seen it just is.

[bugsholmes]

Mr Lif is just about to release another classic featuring Andy Kayes!!

[ClassicGameMaster]

@Ievolovel Yea well their is always the possibility that man just takes advantage of religion for their own essential gain, people selling bibles etc, theirs a chance that there is a misunderstood creator whos watching a spirtitually dead world destroy what he created , i cant prove to you theirs a god just like you can't prove to me their isnt, were all by products of society, even scientists so i geuss it just takes an open mind to realize that man is imperfect and dont have all the awnsers

[ceetheproducer]

Best 5 minutes 30 seconds of my LIF(e)!

[skulldrix]

Krank

[4l12]

true @EmceeReus

[4l12]

true

[42oSupreme]

like mr. lif, i believe this modern world moves too fast in a different way than it ever has before; humans have always had to watch their back from one thing or another, but how can i ever contend with what i have to watch my back for? we're free, right?

"i kick open the door, and let some holocaust in... shed light on the tragedy..." lines and lines of pure poetry; its a different and unique form of the art of hip hop, so true to itself, unaltered. and rebellious, check it

[DopeSick408]

@42oSupreme Yes, check out Silly Puddy by Zion I if you like smart hip hop.

[42oSupreme]

@DopeSick408

good suggestion.

[DopeSick408]

@42oSupreme You're welcome!

[CamerOneiric]

um....this is definitely a company flow  beat from WAY back

[colin10987]

This song is soooo fucking sick

[ICrackYouLikeATeachy]

heard this long time ago , on badder seasons

[dirmaster0]

That sound at 0:14 is from the movie Akira!! :D DAMN LIF!

[MrMLD72MLD]

♥ .

[erbsone]

Enter the Colossus is a classic, period. Much respect to Mr. Lif

[ehchavez1]

amazing stuff...perfect example of what hip-hop is supposed to be like

[XxXUNDERSC0REXxX]

I never slept on this shit I was rocking this tune on most of mix tapes

[BTC141]

Yeah, i remember pumping this in the car with my team on the way to cyphers and battles. Lif always pumped me up before battling. Fresh Coast, Vancity, BC.

[cableguyskater]

fuckin articulate

[SocialDeviant77]

Great track, great message. Thanks for posting.

[kingtrav]

Not sure about this song but El-P does a lot of Lif's tracks.

[Hulmaldo]

This is El-P. It's on Company Flow - Little Johnny From The Hospital as an instrumental, as all tracks on that album are!

[WizardFM]

this song is produced by ELP but originally ppeared on the Company Flow album Little Johnny form the Hospital... then Lif used it here.

[Taberkalosis]

who is his producer, or does he make beats to, daym!

[robdibbles]

Iv'e never been into vinnie paz because i can spit his verse b4 he spits it. It's always the same cadence! I can't get into that. Plus He's always pissed off in his raps.

[traingunner]

yea i know exactly what u mean even i love his music. Its true

[robdibbles]

coo...Glad u agree. I like esoteric a lot. I think he's my fav boston mc iv'e heard.

[206maze]

heck yea but you should check out Vinnie Paz in the psycho social chemical album...thats when he actually raps good

[bigkillpac]

I know i'm 3 months late but I gotta say something.

Vinnie "brings the hardcore" on every album except his first. Now bringing the hardcore isn't all bad, but his first album is all on some crazy ass conspiracy shit on every track, don't nobody know what the fuck he's talking about but it's ill. Check "Never Antiquated", and "Books Of Blood: The Coming Of Tan".

[robdibbles]

I listened 2 both of them and the syles and subject matter is cool and different but it's a bit too old school. If I heard those a while back, that would have been ill as hell.

[AMOKIAN]

I liked the CRAZY ish...That stuff was DOPE

also Crop Circles Thesis was Dope too...hahhaha

Books Of Blood YEAH!!!!!!

I was upset when he went HARDCORE from the old stuff.

[LuckyTaylor13]

where can i download this as an mp3 file. it isnt on itunes at all

[TRIPLESIXSICCNESS]

buy the album

[MANICmeans93]

i'm so glad Lif is still around to keep our minds off of the wackness of the mainstream

[LlLWayneSucks]

boston rap is the shit

[migez1]

i think mr lif kills JMT..im sure vinnie paz would agree aswell...they both promote and rap about different scenarios...lif combines book knowledge with street smarts

[thepatateg]

word..although we still cant take anything away from jmt...he is fuking sick too

[TRIPLESIXSICCNESS]

vinnie and lif are great, different, its a matter of who's style you like better.

[TRIPLESIXSICCNESS]

LIF is on another level,

LIF, DOOM, MONCH, INSIGHT, R.A.

Paz is not ontheir level technically speaking.

[xxballsonweelsxx]

@migez1 apathy and celph titled are both on mr lifs level, listen to apathys verse on represent and way of the gun, he rips it, and his flow is unmatchable, celph titled is the king of punchlines, esoteric also has unbelievable flow, but JMT has a lot of talent that is equal to mr lif in different ways, paz is not a good example, hes too repetitive and predictable

[xxballsonweelsxx]

@xxballsonweelsxx sorry let me correct myself, i was thinking of army of the pharaohs, which involves JMT, my bad, but yea JMT is pretty good, AOTP has amazing talent

[TheGzarza]

@xxballsonweelsxx listen to checkmate by apathy he tears shit up

[thepatateg]

Fuck no...jedi is the sick too though but lif is simply better.

[metalguitarplayer1]

jedi mind tricks is better

[ooooo1Ceman]

he kinda looks like whoopie

[technine888]

lif is sick

[Mike828828]

Great post I own this EP on vinyl. Does anyone know the original sample? I heard it on Deep Crates, I know its a holy grail record for sure.

[jonotick]

@Mike828828

A bit late, but it's from Simon Haseley - Hogans Thing

[COUNTCARDULAR]

i cant see skating or bmx being allowed onthe streets with mind controlled nazi thug police armed with 75000 watt tazers.. its gonna gtet ugly.. road warrior 09 coming to a western city near you

[DMAR17]

I gotta use this song for my next skate video.

Legit classic!

[DerekChaps]

Fuck the illuminati

[JDMHustler]

you can't be any more B-Boy than this. lif's shit is raw.

[SoulsForPaper]

Yeah. Lif is one of the best there is.

[AllEnglishEvie]

Lif is so much better than most modern shite but I do like some modern stuff tho

[COUNTCARDULAR]

real hip hop before the illuminati took over with garbage like jay z kanye and naz.. burn all your jay z albums thay are satanic.. check paris for real ness

[TypiczHD]

@COUNTCARDULAR nas actually isn't THAT bad

[Quake2815]

@TypiczHD he isnt bad at all.

[DRK6644]

This beat is from Company flow's Little johnny from the hospital. thats the shit I've always wondered if anyone rapped to any of the beats from that album.

[Throwbacc7]

HE RAPS LIKE HE IS IN DA 90s. DIS IZ 4REAL!!

[4dville]

I heard this sample used on the show "My Gym Partner is a Monkey" on Cartoon Network.

[GOLDENSUNxXx]

Awredy...real hip-hop'

[EmceeReus]

Amazing Lyricism. Mr. Lif has proven himself to be a lyrical mastermind. This rap is so underrated. Kanye West, 50 and Young Jeezy could never match this.

Still amazed.

[xxballsonweelsxx]

@EmceeReus mr lif, aesop rock, pos, celph titled, and apathy are my current favorite rappers right now, (and eminems old shit)

[rybroca]

...arise...

[4Q85]

in my opinion best track ever

[SoleAce]

This song is fantastic, I'm surprised it has so few hits. His lyrics are so powerful, like an embodiment of culture in America....

[rybroca]

...the cure is not as popular as the poison...

[SoleAce]

lol, So true....some people want to be in The Matrix...

[alexmiddleton4]

we already are in the matrix

[BTC141]

@rybroca Awesome...brother you nailed it! That is the statement that sums up the virtues of our times!

[narutart15]

@rybroca damn.... strong thought.......
