[rayzian]

2011 still no album :(

[ShaneKarma376]

@rayzian Its unreal man. Were talking like half a decade! I appreciate being a perfectionist but Jeez. Half the places I filmed these clips at are closed down now. Worst part is "Donuts With the Grownups" is probably he best song ever and it's not on anything, youtube, album. itunes or otherwise.

[variously2]

@ShaneKarma376 could you, uh describe it, um, to me, oh fuck. where is this work of wonder. one of the few hip hop artists that truly excite me and nothing to burn into my ears other than this. sure i'd like to give you my money despot. while every other lil' jane pushes hip pop product hocking hubris and hate. this and bigg jus are veryexcitingthings

[WuTang069]

Crazy breath control he did that whole song without someone to finish every couple lines for him thats dope and hard to do

[TheNaramatu]

3:45 Satan's Grimace on a Ginger's face. Seriously now that El-P stepped down I have feelings Despot will never drop an album, NEVER.

[rocketcunt]

This beat makes me think of INCEPTION

[HitTheFan]

First time hearing Despot, surprised I haven't earlier it's So Good! Where's the album?

Horray for me!

[SeherCinema]

[ShaneKarma376]

Seems like hes 5 ft  off-stage and 12 ft. on one!

[toaster816]

shane is despots album out yet, im dyin.

[ShaneKarma376]

Haha yeah man me too. Hes touring right now with Ratatat and every night of the tour writing a new song for that night's performance! Im thinking there's no shortage of material and it should be this year. I have been waiting since "Homesickness" appeared on Def Jux Presents Volume 3!

[toaster816]

haha its torture waiting, but its guna make the album huge.

[merk1music]

so dope.

[Meggalif]

This nigger look whack as shit but this song is bumping...coke.

[lowbrowartfag]

I met this dude at Scribble in 01. I didn't know who he was and I can't remember how we ended up talking but we had one of the most random/ funny conversations ever. I don't remember much of it, but we ended up talking about that dude from Home Improvement... Johnathan Taylor Thomas. I remember laughing about something he said about JTT and then he threatened my life for laughing at JTT. Despot was like 5'3" at the time, I hope he got his growth spurt.

[lexyota]

Queens-bred rapper.

[4rcheType]

soo dope!

[toaster816]

dude needs to drop the album...i think 3000 of the views on this vid are from me.

[14111taft]

@toaster816 another 2000 from myself

[toaster816]

big ups

[volumuscle]

awesome!!!!!!

[theraccoun]

quality.

This song is so true

[doooooofman07]

this guy is serious. he is fuckin raw.

anyone know when the album drops?

[ShaneKarma376]

Yeah bro looks like very early '09. It's likely gonna be called "Hooray For Me". For now he finally has the "Homesickness" 12" on iTunes. He has released maybe 10 singles and each one is better than the next. The future of hip-hop.

[DrHellno389]

was just hoping you could direct me to somewhere I might get some corroboration on that. I've been waiting for this album to drop since I heard get rich or try dyin on the definitive swim sampler, but I'd given up hope on it ever being released

[ShaneKarma376]

Yeah man Despot is almost completly done with the album. He has kind of been on hiatus working on it the last few months. It's supposedly coming out possibly before new year if not very early '09. I can't wait. I know he is a perfectionist so hes taking his time.

[gorefaggot]

you see that skateboarder in the back? he's awesome.

[FlaVaChAsA]

why doesnt all of us Hip-hop lovers get together and provoke a revalation to mainstream crap...I want blood let us pit our fave real MC's verses mainstream so called lyricist's...its unfair I know but Hip-Hop needs to cut the fat....

[IMattNovakI]

Im down,

[BearTreeMan]

Im down,

[shirasong]

toby magurie with red hair!!!!!! and a little older

[equalmcDUB]

love the leprachaun comment haha ya dude is sick wish he'd drop a freaking album already though

PEace out D-Dub

[Acin101]

Yeah I hate crap artists who rap like "they get paid to breathe" Despot tells the truth on this track, it's awsome!!! can't wait for the album

[IMattNovakI]

Hehe, good song, good artist... Lol him and his polo shirts, Lo-Life Crew is epic!...

[ShaneKarma376]

Bro Ive seen Despot live maybe 20 times and have never seen the same 'lo shirt twice haha. Lo-Deck and Thirstin Howl III got a run for thier money lol.

[guitarphreak179]

dopest leprechaun i've ever seen

[hobopowerlazer]

hahahahahaha

[hobopowerlazer]

This makes me proud to be human.

[altergrounds]

i just love the fact that he looks like an elementary school guidance counselor in this video...now that's dope...

[strafer]

Kind of acts like one too.  Real mellow.

[alexfreddy]

i wanna hear 'look alive'...help a muthafucka out

[eagle2dips]

He opened a show i saw a couple summers ago when Lif dropped his last album...I had never heard of him, but his set (it was only 3 songs or so) was really impressive...i was slightly disappointed when i downloaded a few songs of his though....good live performer though

[ShaneKarma376]

In honesty if you downloaded anything on iTunes its one of 2 tracks he did very early in his career, pre-def jux. He has definetly evolved. Check out his new song "Look Alive". :)

[neffone77]

Despot! One of the illest on Jux.

[sharmark]

Awesome!!.....I'm so psyched that this dude is dropping his album this year. On another note.......that shirt is ridiculous ;P

Thanks for putting this up.

[kritiko5]

awesome

hes really good

hope his album turns out as good as this

[donaldag]

blockhead did a great job. i love this track!

[blesstonx03]

pure ill... the entire DefJux label is slept on... EL-P did have a spot on Conan O'Brian a while back... I think its on here somewhere...

[ShaneKarma376]

Yes he did. If you liked it you def gotta see the clip of him on Jimmy Kimmel when he did "Overly Dramatic Truth". Classic!

[freetoys4everyone]

will his new album have crap artist and all the other songs on his myspace?

[ShaneKarma376]

I'm pretty sure its gonna be called "Hooray For Me". From the looks it that "Snarky Parker" has a 2008 copwrite now so im guessing it will be on new album so other previous releases may be as well. Algernon, Blockhead and El-P are all rumored to have worked on it cant wait!

[freetoys4everyone]

thanks for the reply. I'm gonna pick this album up the day it comes out.

[freetoys4everyone]

does his new album have crap artist and all the other songs on his myspace?

[Namesake]

Seen this dude a few times, his flow is on point and he looks funny when holding a beer.

[sl2002uk]

Can't wait for his album comin early 08

[robchrist91]

isn't that beat on the video game bully?

[alexfreddy]

this man is so slept on

people need to open up their eyes

DEF JUKIES!!
