Love this, dont normally listen to hip hop these days except for the classics, but this track actually has progression in it, every instrument, vocals included, progressive music will always be a bit more powerfull, fuck the same beat looped
Hey-peep my channel-there ain't no mainstream Hip Hop what so ever-i listen to Wu Tang,Sunz Of Mann,Ol'Dirty,Immortal Technique,Necro.Ill Bill-i can go on forever-point is-i've got songs there-that even ur ignorant ass has'nt heard,if people like u were running Hip Hop-new talent would never get heard-this kind of style also has a place in Hip Hop-u know how young they are-and how long they've been doing this?-and spit rhymes that are positive-with no bad language-its refreshing-we need more....
@chocomilkyninja If they're noticed won't they turn into mainstream? Just remember that everyone starts from somewhere, even if they're mainstream shit doesn't change, you're just being a lil bitch.
@kazujin107 Well I'm sorry I don't want to have to track down a Magnetic North album instead of go buying it at the store. It's fine as long as the music is still the focus, eh?
they had to stop selling their first album cuz some big record company found their song "drift away" and didn't like how it used the lyrics "drift away" and how it had some similarity to the other song (it goes "give me the beat boys, free my soul, i wanna get lost in the rock n' roll, and drift away"...) in the song and pulled a huge lawsuit case on them.
but they re-did that song (by changing like two words) and resold their album.
Yeah...when I first heard "Drift Away," I thought it sounded suspiciously like the song of the same title from Uncle Kracker. I like Magnetic North's take on it better, but hey, copyrights must be respected.
fark yeh...these guys keepin it real...sooo much better then the crap and filth they call hip hop today...mainstream can burn in hell..underground for life!!!
OMG This is actually the illest thing I've ever heard....Just Derek is such a sick MC, the bad thing is IT'LL NEVER HIT THE MAINSTREAM, and i mean ever, but I dunno wish like a movie company could just hear it and put it in a film, it deserves Worldwide recognisition..
THEY NEEEEEEEEDDDD LEARN TO MARKET THEIR BEAUTIFULLY PURE HIP HOP MUSIC!!!!.......i believe in them, they will eventually get through the disgusting corporate-interest music sceen...luv these guys, keep the real hip hop alive and spread the word...peace out, much luv.
this song is so great not one of the greatest magnetic north songs one of the greatest rap songs of all time why are they not signed to a major label there music needs to be heard
I agree, they seriously do need to get widespread recognition soon, but...it's going to be hard. You know how it is. These companies etc, are focused upon sex appeal, and on occasion, ethnicity. Sad.
while i think Magnetic North is a great group, i really dont want them to get signed to a major label!! i'm just worried that if they are signed to some big time label, they'll change their music and image too much... it would be cool if they could be successful indie artists!! XD
fucked up to say, but Asians are pretty hard to market in general because we're not seen in the same light as the "major" races to the major labels...
We have so much talent from, but the only place Asian-American/Asian artists are marketed on the North American continent seems to be only Canada and small portions of the coasts
@v7kg21 i think they havent signed to a major label because they are doing music for fun, for they'er self, from heart not for money and i think thats way they'er songs are so damn good :)
Any one have the lyric?

Mainstream is too hyped. You gotta go underground to know where all the good music is...
Magnetic North needs to be known. Someone needs to advertise their music. Youtube is worldwide.. Spam it. Post it. Scream it. Spread it like a virus.
chocomilkyninja 3 years ago 71
yeah.... get off your high horse about hip hop, some mainstream shit is good, not all.
this is barely underground, if you want underground, look up some menteroja, the mighty underdogs, CYNE
