Jehst - High Plains Anthem

[megabouncer]

"in the place to be see, I was home bangin beats baggin trees tryna make ends meet" -Jehst

Congrats Jehst, keepin your head down puttin in work is working out well for you. This tune will be played as a classic for decades to come.

[xDANCINRICKx]

@jakyredeyes ....he samples nas, haha ... I'd say jehst and nas are more similar than different once you get deeper than the surface

[NickHeath11]

hahaaa tunnneeeee

[spurren1]

first verse is soooooo dope

[MrVoiceless100]

i accidently bumped in to giggs-fire in the booth the other day nd i had to listen to this to sooth my hearing , this track will never get old, return of the drifter is a classic

[xDANCINRICKx]

@Johnpollum101 jehst's style sounds New York influenced to me....golden age new york...he even samples nas....his accent is the only way to tell he isn't from NY imo....no disrespect to the UK....i prefer NY style hip hop

[JakyRedEyes]

@xDANCINRICKx hahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, nothing alike, our emcees have there own flow, style, persona, mindstate. This sounds nothing like anything i have ever heard from US, and i bang shit from all over the gaff , also how the fuck you ganna compair a city to a 4 countrys you fool. peace n knowledge

[jonescjify]

im a indian gettin chiefy with my piece pipe in my long house no tipi

[johnpollum101]

Jeh5t set the bar with this track... I Dont think UK Hip Hop should ever try to sound American. Love this EP.

[YoBludclart]

smoke the peace pipe LOL

[peterpieper1]

keep doin what your doin jehst

[TheOPTIMYSTICALbeats]

by far one of the illest in the uk

[Macdoo2]

[JakyRedEyes]

@Macdoo2 Its people starting to fucking recognise hopefully.

[back2flow]

Unbelievable lyrics. 

[Wyan88]

weak

[TheCavs6]

Just now heard of this guy, how big is he in the UK? I hope hes not big at all, and I mean that in the best way...good tunes

[Harpercent]

@TheCavs6 Huge, if you're talking to the right person but if you're talking to the wrong person then they will answer...."What's Jehst?" just the way it should be

[TheCavs6]

@Harpercent tight from the little UK emcees ive heard, hes by far the best...

[WhiteCloudsWalker]

@TheCavs6 Uk MC's may get limited recognition, but they are realer than any other hip hop affiliated nation present today.

[TheCavs6]

@WhiteCloudsWalker i dont know about all that, a little bias talk...I'd say they arent parallel with the states but again I'm not sure

[TheNoseyGekko]

I don't get the promoters and H line...can anyone explain?

[nusbert]

@TheNoseyGekko He's refering to promoters who spell his name Jhest.

[RiversideHQ]

one of the finest examples of real hip hop

[jonescjify]

mad respect jehst from tulalip washington live from a reservation in a place that once was my nation

[ODOTSTARRR]

[ES4LIFE14]

[Jmaccxx]

[TheTheredestman]

Jehst is the illest..no one in the worlds touchin his delivery or wordplay..

[elmocounts123]

@BBoilard07 I know what your saying bro but it just depends what music you like if you like good beats great flow G-eazy is the way to go, but if you like older kinda rap hopsin and wu-tang clan have never failed me

[PRiiZMx]

"Your crew has more bad apples than cheap cider"

[BBoilard07]

i wish we had rap like this in america. everything here sucks.

[PRiiZMx]

@BBoilard07 'Reef the Lost Cauze' is sick, hes from philly :)

[MetamorphosisUK]

@BBoilard07 fam trust me there are brilliant artists in america. You just have to find em. And you should hear the crap they play on the radio over here! Trust me your just lucky to hear Jehst than some mainstream british rappper.

[Jmaccxx]

@MetamorphosisUK We have Example for that man, nuff mainstream UK rappers now, some of them aren't half bad either. The irony though is that the likes of Jehst and Chester P won't break in unless they dumb their stuff down a little or spit over an Ibiza trance style tune. Fingers crossed though, still time....

[robbief1888]

Listen to this track religiously every morning. Speaks the truth. Jehst is real.

[BananaBase]

this guy is amazing, strong lines and a tight flow and phat phat beat

[HardieUK]

[crustocheevz]

Everyone listen to a guy called Twisted Pennys from Leicester. He is what Jehst would be like spitting bars if he was slightly retarded

[XlburrowsX]

This shit is good , ive come from Sheva's channel :D

[nemoz95]

I'm sorry but, coming from a brit, the US is better

yeah we've got a few brilliant guys like Rhyme Asylum, Jehst, Lowkey, Chester P etc. but we don't have enough. Plus we invented grime, which is the most retarded sub genre of rap EVER!

[giroyagetme]

@nemoz95 nah the orignators of grime are sick its all the sheep that made it wack

[nemoz95]

@giroyagetme originators of grime? like who? if ur talking about wiley or d double e then no cuz they're pretty wack too

[blunted83]

[TheAaroncruz]

love how the beat compliments his style not the other way round.

[Ambersdf]

'Battling me? that'll be an embarrasing mistake, like promoters who don't get the H in the right place...'

.... Classic.

[harrisonbishop69]

jehst = GOD!!

[lostris01]

just because your from the us doesnt make "your" rap music any better than the uk guys, you mention jehst but forget about all of the opther sh1t hot rappers not only the uk, phi life cyfer, Tommy Evans to name only a couple and why dont you look closer to your home land and listen to Abdominal with dj format. i cant even believe people mention biggie in comparison the jehst, thats an insult to the intelligent rapping, not just talking about bitches guns and money. bore me

[crackstah5150]

@lostris01 That's Right, a lot of people consider biggie as the king of NY, which is a lie because Big L was one of the best lyricist of all time. But when it comes to Hip-Hop i don't try to compare who is better or which country has the Best MC's ( not rappers Dunn) its all a lifestyle. We should all give props to the MC's Doing their thing from Cali al the way to Europe.

[MrBushmonster]

@crackstah5150 dont forget about australia

pegz and drapht are heavy

[crackstah5150]

[TheB1gEasy]

met him yesterday!!!

[MrEasyskanking]

Fuck a duck !!!....jehst dropping ill rhymes...uk nicness for real!!!!

[lukth]

how do you pronounce jehst? is it just like jest?

such a fuckin good rapper though, UK hip hop livin it large

[Yalkable]

Yeah. No one I've ever talked to here in America has heard of Jehst. May know of other very good rappers, but no, they don't put their shit on repeat. It's Drake, Kanye who hasn't been good in about five years despite his intense work ethic, Little Wayne who's made like two or three shit albums since he had something good on tha carter II, yada yada. No Soul on Ice, no Infamous, no Plains, no Clear Blue Skies...just whatever's on the FM.

[pinkfloydfan417]

@Yalkable I'm 20 and from America. I'm starting to get into UK hip hop. I really like how dirty and grimey it is, and the word-play is just amazing. Jehst has one of the most interesting flows to listen to, in my opinion, out of all the rappers I've heard. Nobody I know has heard of Jehst, but everyone who's into hip hop that I've shown him to has liked him, so that gives me some hope for the hip hop scene.

[PlekzMan]

Still VERY ILL! Jehst is the hardest rapper ever to bless these fine shores we call England, if not, the world... Only Canibus can touch him lyrically in my opinion...

If your into real Hip-Hop, I'd appreciate if you could check out and leave feedback on my music... And a subscription would go down nicely! On my networking grind, excuse me for clogging up the comments page!

Peace.

[djpheeze]

OH SHIT. Haven't listened to this in a while but u know what? The UK has its own Nas.

[chronicriminal87]

I love this tune, one of his best imo

[funklabADV]

The dirty rascal or the king of the castle, I'm partial to both titles.

[skarecrow08]

"...embarrassing like promoters who don't get the h in the right place.." what does that mean?

[leedsanalogue]

@skarecrow08 - the "h" in his name - like if someone put it on a poster/ flyer as "Jhest" when it's actually "Jehst".

[garymalick]

@skarecrow08 Herb

[orbodotws]

@MrStockford1 there is such a great guy in Germany... his name is Absztrakkt...

[MrStockford1]

not from england either. mi, usa. into lyrics for a long time. this cat can definetely spit and i'm just checking him out today and see all these comments about him being the best and im impressed at the new york premo, pete rock beats. nice to here some old school over the big lake. anyways sounds like brother ali, jack haney, and elzhi all mixed up. very talented and doin it too. but saying nothin new

[KingKiddKoopa]

that'll be an embarrassing mistake like promoters who don't get the H in the right place

[ethiolove098]

is he from brixton?

[Thepipflip]

@ethiolove098 kent i think but im guessing he doesnt live there anymore

[ethiolove098]

@Thepipflip

oh ok, thanks lad.

[djredi2step]

@ethiolove098 born in kent, spent his teenage years in huddersfield and now is based in london

DAM IT!!!! some guy referred me to jehst on another video now i cant find it to thumb it up. whoever you are mystery commenter thank you.

[jamiemarkwhite08]

@urion43 i like your thinking mate!

[jamiemarkwhite08]

@urion i like your thinking mate!

[palepaul1]

siickk

[urion43]

I'm not from England but I actually think Jehst is possible THE greatest rapper of all time. I love complex lyricists like Big L, NAS (illmatic), Biggie etc but Jehst just takes it to another level and is way more versatile and poetic and the same time. Around here American Rap is waaay bigger and people look at me like I'm crazy when i say some guy they never heard of (Jehst) is the best but its truth.

[GeoOneloveHipHop]

@urion43 brave words bro. big up the real hiphop heads in america who appreciate uk hiphop! peace

[toasty303]

@urion43 yea i know wat u mean man. im from the US and everyone in my city thinks that rappers like lil wayne and kanye are the best but they havent even heard of real rappers who are actually good like jehst

[4wheelsharmony]

@toasty303 *they havent even heard of real rappers who are actually good like jehst and all the other uk soldiers

[1guyb]

@toasty303 search ''lowkey fire in the booth'' to hear some decent uk freestyle.

[GASSEDUPTVOFFICIAL]

@1guyb r u mad lowkey is brass, Benny banks or K kokes fire in the booth are arddd

[1guyb]

@GASSEDUPTVOFFICIAL Benny Banks? pfffffffffffff lowkeys fire in the booth shits on his man, get yourself a hearing aid

[1guyb]

@GASSEDUPTVOFFICIAL you dont know what you're talking about bro. K kokes is weak in comparison tupac dmx and fuckin styles p all done that gun/ weapon personification shit be koke k, and all he spits is negativity. plan b's got something to say that is possitive and his wordplay and lyrics are better. and benny banks is negative too. how about some possitivity in hiphop and grime ey? aint all got to be about shotting drugs and shooting guys. You know what, listen to LOGIC- FIRE IN THE BOOTH

[whitesox7721]

@toasty303 Lil wayne talks about some real shit....sometimes. give him some credit lol

[toasty303]

@whitesox7721 yea he has a few good songs. he's good with wordplay

[japanigro]

@whitesox7721 Ohh great lets all rap about shooting other gang members and other shit like that, More like jehst spits the truth and spits realism! Drake, Lil Wayne Kanye are all commercial Money whores (FAKES) , Jehst is in it for the passion of the music, not the big bills!

[whitesox7721]

@japanigro lol you act like thats all he talks about listen to 6ft 9ft, Mr.carter, Hustler Musik, One night only. doesnt mention any of that... so stop hating. And Jehst does talk about real shit never dicredited him at all. stop being ignorant

[whitesox7721]

@japanigro lol you act like thats all he talks about listen to 6ft 9ft, Mr.carter, Hustler Musik, One night only. doesnt mention any of that... so stop hating. And Jehst does talk about real shit never discredited him at all. stop being ignorant

[TheAaroncruz]

@whitesox7721 i hear lil' wayne talking that keep it real shit. that's what he's doing.. keeping it real shit.

[Halfbunnedzootclan]

@toasty303 good man

[shoplifting1is1fun]

@toasty303

lil wayne is pop

[japanigro]

@shoplifting1is1fun Lil Wayne has a tattoo of a cock and balls on his forehead meaning only1 thing....Hes a DickHead

[giroyagetme]

@toasty303 bruv push it push it push it listen to nuffin else but jehst fall wack let em know lol

[philbluntuk]

@urion43 Big props for recognising man.

[shakealeg1990]

@urion43 whats depressing is that 95% of the people in the UK have never even heard of him, its sad to think of all the air time shit pop songs get when gems like this are stuck on youtube.

[Halfbunnedzootclan]

@urion43 good man that attitude will take you places

[japanigro]

@urion43 Jehst is more versatile than a Swiss Army Knife!!

[mastermind22222]

my mic stays in close range i travel the long plains but drift on a high like cocaine...class!
