@NathanExplosion55 this is off the EXTREMELY hard to get a-hold-of "Euphony". It was released in 2001 by 'Cryptic One's' Centrifugal Phorce records. It was like a collaboration/showcase album featuring a bunch of DefJux buds and of course...The Atoms Family.
Aesop is a diamond in the rough. His style is so soothing and refreshing its ridiculous. Everytime you listen to a song you get a new meaning and more questions rise up in the back of your head. Every time something clicks as another thought breaks. That's the beauty of what this man had brought to the table. How many platinum rappers use 4-5 syllable words in their rhymes, huh?
hey guys, i doubt anyone cares but i have nothing to lose by trying. yes, i know its generic as everyone on youtube is asking to check out their rap channel, but if you have a few minutes to spare wether you wanna legitimately check out my music or visit my page to laugh at how bad you assume i am, it would be much appreciated if you checked my shit out. thanks
In "How-To.Rap", Aesop Rock says: "The way I write - it comes more naturally for me to be into an abstract idea. It takes a while to sit and hatch it all out on paper, but it’s what I want to write, so it’s what gets me excited. I don’t go out of my way to listen to only abstract hip-hop or anything like that. I like it when people do whatever comes naturally to them."
That's a really fantastic book that he is in, they got lots of gems from almost all of the best intellectual hiphop artists.
Aesop Rock isn't a rapper, he's a rap artist. Vincent van Gogh style. Painting images in my mind with his lyrical brush. That's the only way I can describe it. Peace world. Keep Rockin' Aesop.
@barnumeffect5 for someone who's been in a psychosis, it's pretty clear. You should see the music video for "we can make the world stop" by The Glitch Mob. Cat people are all around.
Sigh...i have to do this. Aesop Rocks songs have no definite, concrete point to them he himself said they were nonsensical. It is all about your PERCEPTION of this song, what do you get out of it? what does this song mean to you? you don't have to be a genius to understand, he said himself that you'd have to have had no interest in pulling anything from them in the first place to not understand or grasp anything from it. Thats the beauty of his music it's just different for everyone
@Klonzepam Actually you're very wrong. Aesop said he's got something specific in mind when he writes his stuff and that he's not purposefully trying to create songs that are understood differently by everyone. He did say hes got no problem with people having different perceptions of what a song is about, but it is NOT his intention. I'd like to know where he says that his lyrics are nonsensical. I don't believe you and I think you made that up just to give credibility to your opinion. No offense
@Klonzepam I appreciate your dignified response, but I think you misread man. Here's the quote that you're probably thinking of that I got off wiki. "I'm no genius by a long shot, but these songs are not nonsensical, that's pretty preposterous. I'd have to be a genius to pull this many nonsensical records over people's eyes."
@Klonzepam My girlfriend thinks the same thing as you - that every listener has their own perspective - and I respect that. I'm just saying that wasn't Aesop's intention and he actually has something specific in mind even though it's not always decipherable
@HOLIDAY112 There is an objective reality- an objective truth. Klonzepam, to say that truth is what you make it proposes that there is no objective truth. If that is so then there is no standard by which you say that truth is what you make it, because you hold that to be an objective truth while at the same time rejecting objective truth.
@Klonzepam Can't trust Wikipedia, even if so, music is suppose to be taken to your own perception, I'm able to take these "nonsensical" words and relate,
This song isnt about literal water...its a metaphor for the world, and he says it in the beginning . "The water isn't safe, the LAND is made out of water " and he's just saying the future of man doesn't seem so good.
@Sturtzies asmuch is that is true, if over consumed it allows more lead topass in your liver which will give you brain damage so watchout people...no disgrace to your comment because you are equally correct
@Sturtzies and considering the fact its in toothpaste aswell (which explicitly tells you not to ingest any and if you do to go to the hospital), your teeth get much more than would be needed for this use resulting in a damaging effect. you dont need any more than whats in your toothpaste. and the flouride they use is waste material that they would otherwise have to pay for to dispose, but instead WE pay them to dump there toxic waste into our water supply
@Sturtzies it only damages your memory and is added to water in the united states. The only city it isn't added in is washington d.c. aint that sketch as shit.
@encef1 9/10 of the people, such as yourself, who comment things like what you have just typed, can't understand Aesop themselves. You only comment this to make it seem as though you understand his abstract lyrics in their entirety, trying to appear as if you have some higher-levelled grasp of language.
Please, you don't. So stop lying to yourself and pissing me off. (:
@TheAsianWorm Actually, you're on to something. I can't understand his songs until I listen to them 50 times. But I enjoy them. I was also expressing my anger that he isn't better known, not mainstream, but known enough that he didn't have to have a day job in addition to rapping.
@TheAsianWorm You're right, people seem to think that they have to some sort of genius to be able to enjoy Aesop. I don't understand all of Aesops songs, but in my opinion, that's also why I like him so much, 'cause he gives me this urge to understand.
I think you're more sad about how many people can't respect music like this. It's getting listened to... it permeates the culture, instead of exlpoding into it and immediately fading away ala Lady Gaga, blah blah blah
@angelospingos no no no...hip hop has always been meant to be like this...check out Canibus, K Rino, Prince Ea, Killah Priest and Jay Electronica...just some of many intelligent MC's.
nevermind the fact that its poisonous. or that people in third world countries that have never brushed their teeth in their life nor had fluoride in their water have teeth whiter than yours.

You are all wrong, this song is one giant metaphor about him wanting to be a better person, an example, and just over all being just clean and ahead of the pack. Its deep, real deep.
@owned323 ive heard dat aesop susualy uses water as a metaphor 4 hip hop. which wuld make sense cos wen u rap u have flow and beats have flow and water flows. this song culd mean a lotta things.
I love Aesop Rock, so dope with his complete own style. I love how he does things his own way and still keeps it honest. I am actually trying to do the same. I am a new rapper who just put out my first ep. I'd love it if you went to my page to check it out and told me your thoughts. Thanks for the time! Take Care!
even reading along i had trouble following his lyrics, i feel like i might be able to catch up with aesop after listening to it ten more times. regardless of how well i understand the song, it's beautiful.

@xXACarmine37Xx its a by product of producing aluminum and theres so much of it they decided the best way to get rid of it is to lie and say its good for your teeth and put it in our water , when in fact what is does is makes a population docile.
@kefka777 Despite it being a toxin, it's actually pretty healthy for your teeth in small doses. Besides the amount in the drinking water is so miniscule that in order to overdose you'd have already been dead from drinking too much water. If anything i'd be worried about the chlorine, although the amount in the water is harmless as well.
@ivegotamnesia They're actually linking it to influencing intellectual development. Go to flouride alert dot org and look under "Flouride Effects on IQ"
@GnomesAmok lol, was thinking the same thing, but people tend to rate things up that seem controversial. Mention Tibet and Im sure youll have a following.
rewritten for Aesop: Aesop is a fucking genius...all his lyrics make so much sense that they don't...His Instrumentals/Beats are the best; his flow is fantastic... there isn't anything wrong with his music at all...It's fucking perfect!
I find it funny how everyone comments on Aesop rock songs stuff like "If you don't understand what he's talking about you're stupid or you're not listening properly" etc etc. When no one really bothers at all to offer their own opinions haha. Could someone in their infinite wisdom explain this song for me?
@PapaCodySlim I Want to see him to, but I think that his ticket prices are a little much. I think that he's selling them for essentially as much as phish.
i would like thank God for Aes Rock... Without him, i wouldn't listen to hip hop anymore, as well as a few more underground hip hop heads... Hip hop is not dead, it is ALIVE, hidden in the shadows of the underground... For every shitty ass mainstream rapper out there, there is a genius lurking in the darkness of the underground. Amen for true hip hop music!
I'm so high right now, ah this buzz is fucking EPIC!! This song is just perfect right now. I can imagine this song being played when I meet GOD!! Aes Forever PEACE!!
AESOP IS TIGHT IVE BEEN UP ON HIM SENCE WAY BACK WHEN LIKE 95.. im glad he puts it down how he fills and dont sell out for the might DOLLA.. B-DATT GOTS A TIGHT VIDEO ON YOU TUBE GO PEEP IT OUT.. DESTINED FOR GREATNESS,, STAY TRUE HIPHOP HEADZ

@StirCrazyCalmness It was prolly just a typographical error. We all mix letters up now and again when we type too fast. If you notice sometimes posters hit the wrong key which is right next to the intended key. I'm assuming that's what happened with that one. Hell even I do it from time to time when I don't review my reply before

If anything i'd be worried about the chlorine, although the amount in the water is harmless as well.

I don't think Aesop's song was meant to reflect the insane delusions of people worried about their "precious fluids" being poisoned by Communists

rewritten for Aesop: Aesop is a fucking genius...all his lyrics make so much sense that they don't...His Instrumentals/Beats are the best; his flow is fantastic... there isn't anything wrong with his music at all...It's fucking perfect!

I find it funny how everyone comments on Aesop rock songs stuff like "If you don't understand what he's talking about you're stupid or you're not listening properly" etc etc. When no one really bothers at all to offer their own opinions haha. Could someone in their infinite wisdom explain this song for me?

Someone should make a basketball mix tape using this song. None of that
LeBron bullshit though... make it a real, exciting player like Nash, Kobe, Dirk or Durant.

i would like thank God for Aes Rock... Without him, i wouldn't listen to hip hop anymore, as well as a few more underground hip hop heads... Hip hop is not dead, it is ALIVE, hidden in the shadows of the underground... For every shitty ass mainstream rapper out there, there is a genius lurking in the darkness of the underground. Amen for true hip hop music!

they got an excellent interview with Aesop Rock where he goes through his lyric writing methods, its in the HOW-TO RAP book thats out now
pretty much all the greatest underground groups and classic hiphop groups are also in that book breaking their processes down, its incredible

@StirCrazyCalmness It was prolly just a typographical error. We all mix letters up now and again when we type too fast. If you notice sometimes posters hit the wrong key which is right next to the intended key. I'm assuming that's what happened with that one. Hell even I do it from time to time when I don't review my reply before
i submit it.
