Blue Scholars - Blink

[wezzzleee]

the 5 dislikes work for the NWO. Fukem

[ElementKenji]

you know they are good at what they do when even though i dont completely agree with everything they say in the song i still think its pretty damn good music

[MrBereal351]

Correction jewish puppet masters...

[Jbinkley79]

Legendary, fuck the nwo!

[Yamboi09]

what a dope song. cant wait to see blue scholars tomorrow

[67mustangreg]

I will cry if I ever hear this on mainstream music radio. I walk seattle streets and listen to this song. 4th ave and university.

[LAYITLOOSE]

this is so legit

[shoplifting1is1fun]

Brilliance. Loving it. Rap you can think about.

[TheTalax]

This is soul rap, true poets with metaphors that push the limits of your imagination. This is how all rap should be, the only reason it's not known is because of the government screening out our media, and because people don't understand the metaphors.

For more soul rap, search "Bliss n Eso" or "Common Market". Bliss n Eso are Australian, and their lyrics are amazingly mind blowing. They're all underground and stay true to hip hop.

Like this comment to get the voice of these rappers out.

[pakot10]

the fuck is this revolution and new world order/illuminati bullshit?

[MrLmr420]

Can someone please tell me if this beat was sampled from some movie soundtrack song? I feel like I have heard it before

Blue Scholars are fucking sick

[zarenj21]

the radio is a downgrade.

[69cherrypoppin]

and if sleep is the cousin of death, then every time i blink's one step closer to my last breath...

[clanofhyrule]

george bush eats my shit

[theDolphino1123]

"It’s said talk is cheap, but war is expensive

I speak cuz it’s free and these words are my weapons"

Great example of a simple verse speaking volumes

[DoucheFagX]

Rapping philosophers right here

[ProMusicProf]

I've just always wondered, since now people say Obama inherited all the problems we have right now (example, the oil spill) - what should've Bush actually done in reaction to 9/11? They way it's always seemed to me is... if we didn't fight back, we'd still be targets to even more terrorist attacks. So what should we have done instead of war? Again I'm not really sure on the topic, I'm just looking for other viewpoints

[DemiseFromTheSkies]

@ProMusicProf Wait a minute. People still think terrorists were behind 9/11?

[ProMusicProf]

@DemiseFromTheSkies Well.... why the hell would our own government attack a center of trade to get money off oil? That makes no sense whatsoever. It's pretty obvious that it was terrorists

[DemiseFromTheSkies]

@ProMusicProf If you haven't figured that out on your own after 9 years, then there's really no point in talking about it.

[youknowthat212]

@DemiseFromTheSkies

[Forge11108]

@ProMusicProf i dont have all da answers but...we had reasonable cause to attack afghanistan, but iraq was total bs, bin laden actually loved George Bush cause the Iraqi invasion boosted al-qaedas recruitment n gave them an opportunity to bleed america, our over militaristic approach doesnt deter terrorists, it just encourages them to target civilians more, terrorists arent conventional armies so fighting them conventionally is inane

[Forge11108]

@ProMusicProf overall it was cheney calling the shots, unfortunately it wasnt entirely just a matter of approaching a bad situation with rationality, there were a lot of other pressures that forced a blind and hasty retaliatory action (us populace, military+oil industries, neo-cons etc.) What bush should have done? cant say, but obama wont confirm bin ladens death or capture till weve gotten what we want in the mid east, i just pray we actually give those people sum infastructure, peace

[ericsashes]

hmm i wonder if the video was made by a liberal

[nickname1331]

hmm, I wonder if you are a conservative.

[420420420387]

@ericsashes The video and song were made by openminded artists who are sick of the bullshit and lies the liberals, conservatives, and every branch of the government feeds us to keep us scared and blinded to reality.

[UnannoyMe]

How smart can this guy be...

[nickname1331]

how smart can you be?

[sumergido28]

de tanto volar algun dia caeran y tendran que aprender a caminar

[007ishy]

"Talk is cheap but war is expensive. I speak cause its free and these words are my weapon." damn truth

[Dodsskater]

nice song

[pigchickencow]

thats capitalism for ya

[blikbladae2]

I think scholars tones down their views when they rap, or really I'm hoping they a little more radical even though they rap with a deep seated understanding.

[RastaManVIBRATIONJah]

this is real rap most people listen to mainstream where they just talk about sex drugs n bein a baddass when 99% of the ppl who listen to it cant even relate

[a3nikevm]

yeah so? its still good music

[jjjhs08]

lol i agree except a lotta ppl do relate to that too, i just think its garbage music anyway

[SOSTacoJohnson]

There is only one conspiracy...

Keep people stupid, because ignorance is bliss. Once they are blissfully unaware, you can control the world; once they are conservative, the richest 1% can control us. Hell they could repeal the Bill of Rights and have no one notice... oh wait, the conservatives did...

[TheNicolock]

wow such a awsome beat love this song 5 STARS. i cant even talk that fast

[LeDuckDuckGoose]

I dont think 911 was caused by the American government... Conspiracy theories are essentially human nature cuz we create complex scenarios to answer a simple question...it was just a pissed of religious group trying to take a stand against America....

[CustomBumpMaker]

This conspiracy has ties far greater than a simple religious stand against a powerful nation such as America.

[a3nikevm]

HOLY FUCK THANK YOU!

[insurgent28]

Well conspiracy theory or not, Uncle Scam does want you to die in a foreign dessert for corrupt politicians, and for oil at that seems like a good trade. The conspiracy is why most of us would believe we are at war right now. I am not big on the illuminati theory, but there are still some questions to be answered about 9/11.

[tornskyblaster07]

I know there are patriotic people, but just remember that the best of heros can be corrupted. If you think about the government has to much control over us, but also if they didnt then it would be chaos. I believe there must be a balance. One problem Im seeing is the new Ice Age movie comming out promotes that dinosaurs came after the Ice Age when it has been taught that it was the other way around. It makes you think what exactly is true and what isnt...

[Jioxer]

What you call the fucked up war in Afghanistan could also be called conspiracy theory. You are the same as them the use the word conspiracy to make people that are seeking truth look crazy their not conspiracy they are the truth . If you could open you eyes you could easily see that. Maybe you shouldn't even listen to this guy you would probably offend him.

[kneegrow2727]

The video ruins the song. Great going.

[AllianceJedi]

DoNotTrustMeIAmALiar Is right on the nail, ive seen these retarded smoke screen vids on alot of Can-i-bus music vids too. ignorance is the shield of the matrix

[Eleventytwoo]

haha, his username doesn't fit with his comments.

[BurnumBurnum123]

"even though only 15% know where its at"

haha

[Forge11108]

i agree, total misuse of this song which isnt even about conspiracy theories, its about the fucked up "War" in Afghanistan and Iraq, awesome song though, support real hip hop! but wat exactly is a typical conspiracy theorists agenda? agenda suggests they got their own conspiracy planned or some shit like that

[DoNotTrustMeIAmALiar]

Good song, horrible, retarded conspiracy theorist video made to push an agenda that is totally contrary to the message and political activism the Blue Scholars encourage their fans to take part in

[truthoutmedia]

lol thumbs up

[BallinRiceBowl]

Amazing song and a great video. Makes you think, unlike all the other mainstream, but you can't really blame the industry for all the shit on the radio, it's also the fault of the listeners and mainstream followers.

[NickV801]

I love me some Blue Scholars.

[Jaimmortal]

wow geo's flow is incredible on this song, particularly the last verse.

saba never disappoints.

[jfoote2005]

amazing huh dude? True poet. and the beats? none better.

[skenehc]

This isn't revolution. This is simply not known by the majority. Tons of good underground crew like this everywhere, and they always make the realest and illest shit. Jurassic 5 was pretty good. Dilated People is the king, A tribe call Quest, Mos Def, KRS-One, even these well known ones aren't that well known in the mainstream culture. Thx MTV and BET, for fucking up the US culture.

[devilzadvokit13]

these guys reppin seattle, well done.

[gunfire456369]

I love livin' in Washington. Knowing these guys are local is even better.

[RhythmAndPoetry204]

props to the 206

[randalw05]

don't forget about the 253

[rodolfoyah]

this is real rap not that shitty mainstream crap

[allbusiness001]

Looks like too many kids watched some sensationalist video on the internet that cites no sources.

I'd advise you people to seek out the truth for yourself, instead of look for a neatly wrapped presentation.

[TheFelixxRevolution]

these guy'z are way to underrated

[stratisp]

Logic before anger usually helps when communicating. Oh yeah, this is the internet.

[xskater101189]

How do people not notice whats going on when its right in front of them. This is the reason things wont change.

[The00zexamator]

allbusiness01 is wrong, Nick is right.

Nick is always right.

[OmGiTzNiCk]

i know im right.

[allbusiness001]

Rappers need to stop thinking they know things about politics.

[NickV801]

You're crazy.

[TheFelixxRevolution]

allbusiness001 your trippin

[natenate88]

you're retarded... and rappers need to talk about sex, guns, n drugs i suppose? .. haha... yea fuk that... most rappers do the same shit.. n its wack.... BLUE SCHOLARS are leading the revolution of "Intelligent" hiphop.

[NickV801]

Damn good song.

[lobestrong77]

that's a good shit as I love!!!

[TheSpanishMen]

very good movie

[yumansveita]

Watch this video on youtube: Volker Pispers history of USA and terrorism 1 of 5

[leoboyvids]

BLUE SCHOLARS deserve way more play time on radio and tv! ALL THEY PLAY IS LIL WAYNE! FUCK DAT! HE IS NOT THE BEST RAPPER RIGHT NOW! BLUE SCHOLARS ARE!

[hillzagold]

He doesn't even rap.

[Fma1416]

I actually noticed when he can't come up with a word that rhymes(even when they don't even mean anything), he just laughs instead.

[warpknights]

omg...lol there's atleast several times in the day whens hes on all 3 my radio stations at the same time : (

[Bayani8]

nah i think blue scholars is way to good to be on radio. they shouldnt be put on stations with idiot music

[alam66anjum]

@Bayani8 I understand what people mean when they say things like this, but i'd much rather this music get spread out. Otherwise nothing changes, and that's what the artists themselves want, to switch the mindset of the world. It's already fucked, why not try to get more people thinking? It's not like a group like the Blue Scholars are going to change FOR radio, but if anyone decided to put them on, you shouldn't refuse if you really cared for their music.

[Bayani8]

@alam66anjum a year ago i would have disagreed. Because the music on the radio now is improving. However i wouldn't having a radio station that plays only philosophical and influential hip hop music. :)

[Bayani8]

@Bayani8 wouldn't mind

[alam66anjum]

@Bayani8

Fasho i feel it man.

[clementi69]

holy fuck I can't even read what you're typing

[liilsaiint16]

ckuz u a dum ass dats y

u dnt listen 2 da lyrics

2 da words dat dey sayin

u just listen ckuz people like dem

[g100as]

Yeah I agree wit ya. It was like that originaly in the east coast. (poetry over beats)

[Nublyk]

This video does not portray any of the lyrics in this song, fuck whoever made this stupid ass video.

[Bayani8]

dude....cmon now... some of the lyrics go well this video....and also the things in this video are what Blue Scholars talk about all the time....so this guy couldnt put all of their songs in one...so he just had to choose the best 1....

[ExplicitAndEquipped]

You should be glad the song is even on youtube, you ungrateful bastard..

[redryde]

please remember to vote come november. nodding your head to a hip hop song isn't gonna bring about change. do something.

[TheFelixxRevolution]

redryde uhh? if you knew anything voting doesnt do shit democracy died many years ago...did you not here "new world order" in the back round of this song...you are very ignorant my friend its a shame someone such as your self would kick it to the these guyz

[MKpercussionist]

voting is an illusion of choice.

[SKyllable2]

bush is merely a tool(fool) in the hands of masonry...

[vadstradamus]

Great stuff.

[hurtfulturkey]

Good song, retarded video.

[allbusiness001]

i cant wait for next year so everyone cant blame bush for everything anymore

[wubbie4]

I love Blue Scholars, they're like Immortal Technique, except not a retarded extremist

[juancfile]

yeah, they dont hide behind costumes and hyper masculine male bravado like some of the rappers...poised flow, strong message

[TheFelixxRevolution]

hey wubbie4 man you gotta respect tech for what hes doing he is a fanatic but still hes really blunt about his message and if your in a bad mood tech is nice to listen to

[hohohojae]

And no wonder the majority wants a war with Iraq

Even if only 15% know where it's at on a map

lol this is a beast verse

[justblazed01]

well....2sick....gr8...i dig it...my crew is The Inperious IluminatI...lol

[alexisondrugs13]

Sick!

[rubherduck010]

its true if u think about it u do die in the blink of an eye and they tell people not to take shit for granted like alot of americans do

[HomedudePedroski]

really awesome song!

[reggaelatino]

Powerful song and video. Lyrical truths and infectious horns have me playing this track again and again.

BIG UP Seattle's Blue Scholars!

[123inge321]

Peace all over the world,startig to smoke ganja and stop to kill people!!

[ShAuNoFDaFuNk]

if ya'll like this you'll like immortal technique's tell the truth search it on youtube you wont be dissapointed.

[HomedudePedroski]

I like Blue Scholars, they make sense.

[pimsleur26]

the goverment probly hates geo................

[shamrockstar13]

dude, this is some serious shit....great song, it's cool but think about it... and watch the video...I like it how there not like

RAP=Sex-drugs-smokin... u know?

[tukwila206]

they say talk is cheap but war is expensive.

I speak cuz its free and these words are my weapon.

Man the Scholars are the ish!

[blknight52]

See this is where I think you might not be looking too far in, War is expensive, and to give you the right to speak is just as expensive if not more so.

[hillzagold]

"Free" means without bounds.

[blknight52]

What Americans think that the sun goes around the earth? I think younz like to make up some Bs facks, song is good, but stop trying to say we attacked ourselves on 9/11, if you really think thats true i think you should watch the video again then try and find this info that two college students found. end of story.

[tukwila206]

You think they made up BS facts? What are you referring to? What facts????

They are displaying their displeasure for the leadership in this country. Which much of America feels.

When have the Blue scholars ever said we attacked ourselves on 9/11?

[Opeth44Life]

Are you fucking kidding me? Do you know anything about the September 11th attacks? Do you realize the building fell at an almost free-fall rate? And, according to the official 9/11 Commission Report, The (Steel) building collapsed from fire...Never before, throughout the history of the steel building, have any ever been officially reported as "collapsing due to fire."

[Opeth44Life]

The Commission also states that jet fuel is what ignited this deadly fire; interestingly enough, jet fuel doesn't even burn hot enough to melt steel, let alone hot enough to burn the 47 massive steel columns that the Trade Center towers were structured upon. The explanation for this self-implosive attack? How else would Cheney get his pipelines up and running under Afghanistan? How would Bush justify himself to his father if he didn't have a middle-east skirmish?

[Opeth44Life]

How would the central bankers stay in power without a major economical boost (obviously in the upper class' favor, during our continuous class war in America)? How would the Federal Reserve keep our nation trillions of dollars in debt, while still keeping the ones who run it endowed enough to control the fate of our country?

[badgerbooger]

lawl, steel just has to bend you idiot, and once it heats up and bends it loses structural integrity. I'd like to see you military press 300 pounds, and have a midget crack your kneecaps, and see how hard it is to keep that weight held up.

[shamrockstar13]

Dude, what are you trying to say????

[nightlypaladin]

Looks like too many kids watched some sensationalist video on the internet that cites no sources.

I'd advise you people to seek out the truth for yourself, instead of look for a neatly wrapped presentation.

[shamrockstar13]

wanna now what bothers me, that I heard the other day?

That 59 percent of americans still think that the sun revolves around the earth... think about that...

[colombianh3ro]

americans r dumb man, just look at the elections. People want peace and want the iraq war to end but they vote for john macass

[fissure226]

the world is dumb

[iancond314]

ignorant is a better word

[theadverbs]

i doubt that fact. some guy made that up, but if its true then wow. i live in a privileged part of america, im 14 and i realize the mistakes we've made. for anything to change then every body's got to take responsibility for history.

[vodun132]

to lex

"i heard a few heads, say that hip hop was dead no its not, its just malnourished and underfed" southside revival

[westsidekingsnumba1]

raw song

[anjiaoshi]

Brilliant song. Kinda weird video. "The Illuminati"?

[lex400sc]

and here i thought hip hop was dead...

[Kdizzelthesk8er]

if you'll like good rappin bout real problems in the world check out de group called: micheal franti and spearhead

[silentassassin23]

This is what needs to be played over the radio. This is real music about real problems in the world.

[colombianh3ro]

it'll never b on the radio, prodigy from mob deep did a freestyle on bet n he refrenced the illuminati, they took it off the same day

[v1tunv41ke4n1m1]

this is sooo wrong..

[Tenorman207]

Listen to what this guy says...! He's everything America needs to hear!

[Lostaries]

obviously real hip hop

[aliandsandiis]

keep rappin scholahss

[tchock]

THIS SONG FUCKING OWNS,

yo groups like this make me believe in true hip hop still. blue scholars are dope!

[sKaRR3]

and just to add on.....How are you able to determine whether the words that they say are honest or not? In my opinion you just have no taste for music/talent. What you need to do is open your mind and ears, and stop listening to mainstream hip hop....that shiit is crap.

[BrotherVBrother]

their politics are all wrong. but their music is good

[Dagdal124]

THANK YOU for that brilliant opinion.

[dulaomnagala]

mentally retarded? yes you are.

[Wes45]

YO yall some lucky asss people you guys from the northeast! Man I wish we still had hip hop like this in the Bean Town or in New York. All you here is money and shit over there! it sucks man! Yall ppls from Seatle got it lucky! I envy yall.

[Intoxicanttt]

Blue scholers are one of the best duo's around! 50 thousand deep man! Real hip hop...

[sclatoqueensny]

talkin the way i please is alot better than talkin like i got a stick up my ass

which obviously you do hahahaha

[McGavin08]

wow. you've spent a month trying to shit talk someone. how pathetic.

And since you claim to have a deep understanding of all levels of hip hop, you would know that this isn't "shit", this is truth. Blue Scholars rap about these views not merely for show & money, but because they sincerely support their beliefs. Otherwise, they would be making simple, million dollar songs sayin "ay bay bay". It's ignorant people like yourself that make rappers like Blue Scholars rap about these things.

[McGavin08]

Oh, and if i'm being too intellectual for you:

"ya just got owned bitch"

btw, even if you try to talk back, it's pointless. i've already wasted too much time on your dribble to keep an argument with ya.

[Stupidpepleeverywher]

you suck at life sclato, let it end at that

[mapac157797]

why u talking soo much shit only bitches talk shit

[mapac157797]

it aint mindless bullshit u mindless bullshit why do you give a fuck soo much what gangstar or some mutherfucker is soo much better all the rappers rap about the same shit all the time hip hop and "alive" because of fake rap tell me one goddamn group, person out there NOW thats doing hip hop nobody stupid its all corprate shit the last time i hear hip hop was like wu tang or somebody from like 97

[Wes45]

Lol!!! agreed!!!

[sclatoqueensny]

just cause you read something off a card someone gave you doesnt make you smart =/

[sclatoqueensny]

oh yea i forgot to mention on emore thing thats super smart

which is... suck a dick lil bitch ^___^

[sclatoqueensny]

and if you dont understand ebonics or whatever the hell u said u dont understand hiphop alot of it came from that kind of language

im a open guy i can understand all levels of hiphop but i guess u can only see one

which is unfortunate mr intellectual fag

but i aint mad

it aint nothin oh sorry i used ebonics again did i lose u? haha

[sclatoqueensny]

i dont care to write properly when im on the net

its not like writing a essay to ur special ed self... haha but yea to put it into simple words my opinion is what they spit may be true in some ways but just cuz someone says something true doesnt mean they are honest.. kind of like people repeating tupacs quotes same words but not everyones being honest

[Apotheocalypse]

the song presents a political message in the view of blue scholars, but does not go nearly so far as to suggest that a group such as the freemasons or the illuminati (which has not been proven to be active or even factual) are responsible for the world's problems.

As such i would suggest that anyone who watches this video for the opinion of Geo and Sabzi of Blue Scholars consider the fact that the maker of the movie is not affiliated with the creators of the song

[Apotheocalypse]

is this the official video, or just something some guy made to the song?

[jasonpalmer2]

There is no official video.

[sclatoqueensny]

oh yea and nas is fuckin siccccc =]

[jasonpalmer2]

If i'm decyphering your ebonics and poorly written english properly, you're saying that some of this "war shit" (referring to the lyrical opposition to the War on Terror is true, but some is not. I suppose some of the parts that aren't true must be about the Illuminati or the Freemasons. Maybe you'd like to tell me why ever single president has been a Freemason, Skull and Bones, or Illuminati? Or does that require too much thought?

[jasonpalmer2]

Maybe you'd like to degrade your culture and race even more by saying how you like to irresponsibly handle firearms or alcohol, or maybe you could "rap" about how you enjoy confrontation with the police or how great nas is or how you like to fuck your hoes. Go learn to read and write English properly and then I shall respect your comment.

[sclatoqueensny]

and the war shit some of that is true some is not

and if it soo damn passionate then do somethin about it niggga

ya aint special even if u claim thats not your obejective i dont really give a fuck

some may say why i care so much well i do cause i cant stand this kind of shit where it seems like a good thing but disguised with no point

[sclatoqueensny]

2 people can speak the same truth it all depends on motive

real hiphop or whateer the fuck only live because there is "fake rap"

haha amusing but hey its coo

[sclatoqueensny]

this shit is whack

real talk is its easy to do something like this if u open up ur mind a little bit and spit some knowledge and gain fame for something unique

not a hater or nothin but i see right through this b.s

id rather hear cash money million mutha fuckaz than hear this shit

[mapac157797]

fuck you where are you from and how did you hear about blue scholars. so basicly youre saying you have a better message and more knowledge. what do you mean bullshit they aint rapping about your ignorant ass already knew which you seem to imply (sheltered bitch) go a head listen to some fuckin stupid master p pop rap bullshit mindless fuckin shit u dont even give people a chance well dont expect it back dumbass

[NastyAddiction]

see thru this bullshit?? obviously someone smeared shit across your eyes cause that's the only bullshit you see. this music aint for you man.  ask what cash money has done for their people, then go and find out what these Scholars have done....50 Thousand Deep

[xl3ATOSAIx]

northwest classic =P

[robert33yea]

seattle i envy you for your

kickass hip hop
