And Im gonna say it again, for the 'SPECIAL SESSION' ones. Let me remind people. That eLZhi DIDN'T EVEN want to do this project anymore! He ask his followers on twitter and the majority of them said, "YES DO THAT SHIT!!" Including me.....so PLEASE come off that Nas wannabe shit because eL' been doin' him since the mid-late 90s. Houseshoe suggest he do illmatic ova, he thought about, forgot about it, asked about it and his FANS made him be ABOUT it. Thank You.
Man this is so dope! Lyrical storytelling is on a level of Kool G Rap! Hearing you rap is like hearing G Rap in his prime. Also he is still rapping peace bro! Yo much success to you. I listened to Slum Village though at that time I didn't have the cd.
@PacersFan6 Bull. Only a teenager would say something like that... Not only is that retarded, but it's blasphemous as well. Elzhi is a good rapper, but even his best songs are not touching Raekwon, Ghost or Nas especially. He could never be top 3 when those dudes are still rapping... When AZ is still rapping, when Common is still rapping, when Inspectah Deck is still rapping, Pharaoh Monch, Mos Def, Jay Electronica.... There are plenty of rappers who are better then this dude. Top 3 my dick. lol
@busymike not an underground dickrider at all... just the way myself and a lot of people see it, nothin' retarded with that. everyone's entitled to their opinion, so there's no need for you to desrespect anybody that doesn't agree with you. have a nice day.
@rmsg120nsb "A lot of people" meaning people on the internet who dick ride underground rappers. lol But you're right, you can have an opinion even if it's wrong.
this night I dreamt that someone said '' its not like you get three tries to rise like G5's'' in a freestyle, i was so angry because i knew it was from this elzhi song haha..
Can we get a super human album consistin of all the best of the midwest, such as Elzhi(L's High)ya didn't know dat he was referring to weed consciousness, then let's go Twista and royce da 59, Cnote(the one who stays wit ben franks-who is this?), Kanye West and Lupe Fiasco. This is what you call the Flame.
and for the people cryin "this aint original", it aint a tribute to nas cause hes "dead" fools, its a tribute to an era, style, and level of hip hop that only exist as a part of history now in the heads of those who valued it. and if youve turned on your radios or tv in the last 10+ years i dont have to tell you that lyrics and rhymes have become a fucking joke.
by thw Royce 59 is a fucking lightweight and Elzhi runs fucking circles round him. El is 95% of the lyrical substance on Motown 25
while i agree with you almost 100% of everything you just said
you're wrong about two things.
1. Elzhi's Elmatic was almost a COMPLETE tribute (excluding this track) to Nas and Illmatic. You can see it in his style, lyrical content, he pretty much sampled all the songs on the album and ran with the same (if not similar) themes on each song. I agree with everything else you said, but just know, this mixtape, Elzhi said himself was a "homage to Nas & illmatic"
@Mon3ymike90 "represent" and "detroit state of mind" are the only tracks that really follow the original concepts, other than those tracks, elmatic concepts are completely original, far from bitin'. nas ain't dead, but you gotta agree his recent spittin' is dope but it ain't "it was written"/"illmatic" status, just sayin'...
@encdee While I agree almost entirely with this post ... Mon3ymike90 having pointed out the homage to Nas ...
I have to say Royce is far from a lightweight. I wouldn't put him on quite the same echelon as Elzhi, but he's proven time and again that when he focuses in his lyrical ability can match a good proportion of the elites.
@YungPinero no doubt. I gotta admit Im not the most familiar person with 59s catalog. i dont even really remember why i commented on 59 seein as how hes not even on this track. Mostly i guess i was just thinking of it from the stand point of 59 being the one who filled in for AZs verse on the "lifes a bitch" track. I def dont think 59 is comparable to AZ so i was probably just talkin shit...
Since Dilla left, Elzhi was the only one who made me keep caring about Slum Village. So the break up wasn't a big deal to me. I'm just glad that he ain't slowing down. Keep it movin' El, you're one of the most talented spitters of all time.
Why is Elzhi do almost all of his mixes to Nas songs. Don't get me wrong Nas is one of the greatest. Probably best with the ]word play. But for real its kinda like an obsessed fan or groupie or something.
@97822626 this came as a bonus track for elmatic which was a tribute project to illmatic and available for free download. and this was the first and last time he did mixes to nas songs.
@rmsg120nsb He bit Rae and Nas with this joint. Rae and ghost wer complaining about "Shark biting ass negroes" on the very album this song cam from. It's quite ironic. Do you own shit Elzhi and be original.
@Noomega18 he's not bitin'. first: eL, royce and guilty made a version of verbal intercourse in a mixtape with the original beat and eLZhi made this the part 2 which has nothing to do with the other versions from the beat to the concept, you'd know that if you were listenin' instead of talkin' non-sense.plus, this mixtape is to pay homage to Illmatic, it is a tribute from a fan that actually can rap and it is a FREE MIXTAPE.he didn't want to release this anymore but his fans pushed him to do it.
@rmsg120nsb I don't waste time listening to stuff that is repeating things that have already been done. Royce is maybe my favorite MC at the moment, probably. Skyzoo is in the running too. I was disappointed to hear he was engaging in this blashemous act of biting. I copped his latest joint with EM, and will be purchasing "Success is Certain" when it drops. I only purchase and listen to origianl music sir. I am not into biting.
@Noomega18 dude, you're the waste of time, not eLZhi lol. this is a free project, so no one would ask you to purchase it and if you listened to it you would understand how damn wrong you are when you say this is a copy. is just a tribute, get over it. seems like your butt hurts or somethin' and eL is better than the 3 dudes you mentioned. if you want to listen to you're favorite mc gettin' smashed by eLZhi in the same track listen to "motown 25" or even royce's "verbal intercourse" version.
@rmsg120nsb Nas ain't dead. Hip hop is in need of new original music not tribute albums. Gangstarr did a tribute song to Big L but they didn't remake his music. Elzhi ain't touching Nasir or Royce. Skyzoo mixtape with original music "the Great Debater" shits all over this biting mixtape of Elzhi. Elzhi is talented but he offers nothing new. If he did, he would be making original music. He could have made new material instead of this. He is going to stay second tier going this route.
@Noomega18 i told you he didn't wanted to do this anymore, the fans asked him to drop it, so he made it free. each song has the same name as the original but the lyrical concepts and writin process are actually different and the live band makes some beats soundin' even better than the OG's. if you think eL ain't touchin' royce, nas or skyzoo, you're completely wrong and if you think he can't bring nothin' new, clearly you didn't listen to the preface.
@Noomega18 plus, SV legacy wasn't considered 90's music, most of the props they got was in this century and i consider them legendary, 'cause there was no sound like slum village music and eLZhi, even though he wasn't an original member, was always the best lyricist in the group. if you don't like this or eL is aight to each one his own, but there's no need to be mad at him 'cause of the great he did.
@Noomega18 thats what im sayin nas is still rapping dont pay tribute yet, come up with ur own shit. In total jcole, elzhi, and jcole are 3 biters who will never be as good as nas and should've not copied nas rhyme patterns, beats, and cd format..pce
@Noomega18 Plus, you're like the 12386472387th person in eLmatic youtube videos that's talkin' the same bullshit over and over and i'm gettin' kinda tired to explain the same thing over and over again to ppl who are constantly judgin' others too quick. listen to the fuckin' songs!
I prefer this version of the song over the mixtape version anyday. I just wish it was as mastered as the tape version!!! Regardless, keep doin what you do EL
ima 16 year old emcee from NC, and i want YOU to check out my channel. im definitely worth the listen. everybody says hip hop is hidden and you just gotta know where to look... im tellin you where: just click my name! you WONT be disappointed

-PS: im a aspiring artist! lol. n i wonder if this took some shots at T3....
@imPulse1919 Yeah u can rhyme...do something to the 6foot 7foot trac...its crying to be killed and check out Rules of Rap by Page Kennedy feat. Elzhi...its tremendous!!!
Fuck t3.... hes detroits version of Solar.... elz tha best nd he made a mistake by not glorifying it, instead he tried to conceal his gr8ness... this is elzhi's "FUCK YOU" to T3 yuhhhpp
@irRASSINal1 If he does a song with jay electronica,lupe,blu and j. cole
.....They will all get the recognition automatically theres no way all them can get on a track together and not get some attention that shit would get like 100000000000 views
As much of a fan that I am of Slum Village I'm kinda glad that he's on his own now. SV hasn't been the same since Dilla left the group and I felt that he wasn't gonna get his shine if he stayed with the group. This dude is nice...I've said it before, he's a "Detroit Nas".
One the best joints I have ever heard. I knew this shit was special the second it started. Niccas cant say rap sucks when we get shit like this. Yo, hats off to Elzhi, this track is remarkable.
Elz one of the greatest artist the cultures ever had with a lyrical skill pretty much unparrelled, there's only a handful of cats who can hold up with El on the mic Black Thought for example n he's also who I'd love to hear an Elzhi track featurin... Imagine Elzhi feat Black Thought over some J Dilla
Thats what makes el stand out. Ive been listening to slum village since the early 90's when dwele was an emcee and that guy is vicious with it too, low key. So, before el came the slum village back then was classic, but when el came, he enhanced the group to a degree that help t3 out. He makes get better when i listen to el. Thats what its about. cats need to stop hatin and get back to the fundementals of writing.
The reason for slum village breakin up is the villa manifesto album had elzhi on a few of the tracks on the entire album. Elzhi came is 07 beastin on the mic and I guess t3 got upset cuz every body started lookin to el and not t3. You have to understand something, just cuz you are a founder of a group dont mean you should get mad, cuz a new member comes in, on another level that you can t comprehend. Elzhi has a certain philosophy when it comes to writing and no one has that except for him.
Hey this song then inspired me to keep going... Literally I know what the People want. HIP HOP baby. Keep these names in mind -- JCole Jay Electronica Talib Kweli Mos Def Big Krit Currency Stalley Jakk Frost Lupe Fiasco Much Love to Hip Hop -Souljah Ali
@mightyhealthy08 jae barber(his manager) said that it's commin out by the end of this month and elzhi said him to stop all the cheap talkin' and they agreed to give a release date this week.
el is the best in the game period. There is no one livin on planet earth right now, that is strategic with the flows like he is. He is definitely one of those who does his homework as far as his flow. This cat is a genius and aint no body seeing this dude at all. I just wish he was still with slum cuz he made that group and dilla passed him the torch.
all the good mc's that come up in your mind can't fuck with this cat right here. man, i will be pleased if he jumps on the booth with nas or blu and if he signed a fuckin' major record deal, he would've killed the game already. best out right now and definetly one of the best ever...

"I thought it was great to be finally signed / But little did I know I made a huge mistake / I found out the label and the manager was fake / And the person that betrayed me the most was my partner / Though all three would be the reason for my departure," before continuing, "I'ma show 'em / That it was nice to know 'em / Or maybe I should hoe 'em / And throw 'em in a poem."
@groente12 yes.........he was talking about how T-3 (the last original SV member) was letting the label play elzhi on the money..........it's more complicated obviously but thats the general idea
Even bit the queens accent smh queens niggas stand up!

As much of a fan that I am of Slum Village I'm kinda glad that he's on his own now. SV hasn't been the same since Dilla left the group and I felt that he wasn't gonna get his shine if he stayed with the group. This dude is nice...I've said it before, he's a "Detroit Nas".

Elz one of the greatest artist the cultures ever had with a lyrical skill pretty much unparrelled, there's only a handful of cats who can hold up with El on the mic Black Thought for example n he's also who I'd love to hear an Elzhi track featurin... Imagine Elzhi feat Black Thought over some J Dilla

Thats what makes el stand out. Ive been listening to slum village since the early 90's when dwele was an emcee and that guy is vicious with it too, low key. So, before el came the slum village back then was classic, but when el came, he enhanced the group to a degree that help t3 out. He makes get better when i listen to el. Thats what its about. cats need to stop hatin and get back to the fundementals of writing.
trinityzion1 11 months ago 2
The reason for slum village breakin up is the villa manifesto album had elzhi on a few of the tracks on the entire album. Elzhi came is 07 beastin on the mic and I guess t3 got upset cuz every body started lookin to el and not t3. You have to understand something, just cuz you are a founder of a group dont mean you should get mad, cuz a new member comes in, on another level that you can t comprehend. Elzhi has a certain philosophy when it comes to writing and no one has that except for him.

el is the best in the game period. There is no one livin on planet earth right now, that is strategic with the flows like he is. He is definitely one of those who does his homework as far as his flow. This cat is a genius and aint no body seeing this dude at all. I just wish he was still with slum cuz he made that group and dilla passed him the torch.
