this track grows on you. i didn't like it at first, but now.... i don't love it, but i don't skip it. I enjoy this song. Plus Dooms beats can make anything amazing.
@10lettername You must not be smoking the right stuff. He sounds nothing like little wayne. And EVERYTHING about this track is straight fire. Are all your 5 senses in order?
I didin't say Geedorah (MF Doom) has a whiny wayne voice, It's Gigan, the dude featured on this track, his voice is scratchy, high pitched, and difficult to make out sometimes. I'm not a fan, but i love Doom, he's the shit.
@grimmjow3003 Yeah, he's part of a group called Monsta Island Czars, based off the island in Godzilla. Everyone in the group has a name from a monster in the movies
as soon as i started this track i knew instantly it was mos def. arguably two of hip hops best MCs. black on both sides might be the greatest hip hop album ever made
@kmac71291 its not mos def ha it sounds like him but its not I thought the same thing. I saw a video of mos def praising DOOM's lyrics though saying he would like to do something with him
If you are listening to this, and you are wise to what is really going on around you- Then put a big middle finger up to say screw you to the people like you and me that try to control the world on a daily basis. I read the map , and the Lord drives my life. Wake up to a new understanding...stop taking things at face-value...start thinking...for yourself. Do not be counted as part of the masses, because at the end of the day...you're already dead.
I'm such a fracking n00b for not knowing this b4! man just imagine listening to hiphop for almost 14 years and not knowing this. I'm from east-east-germany - that might explain it ;) just excuse me... such a fat track... not that good for ppl /w depressions ;) but the best fracking track I heard since a long time. blah blah blah... one word: awesome!!!
This song and the entire album is one of my all time favorites. This was the first doom disc I had (burned copy) Over the next year I purchased every MF cd available. The best!
Does anybody else notice the similarities between the melody in this and in Everybody's Nobody by XV? I mean they're clearly different and aren't very complicated melodies anyway so I'm not accusing XV of copying, just sayin, cause I was listening to this and it hella reminded me of something that I couldn't put my finger on and I think it may be the XV song. Anyone know of any other songs that use a similar melody? Maybe some oldie or movie song? (And not 10 Years Later or Requiem: 820 Latham)
@antifugazi No, it is "Requiem: 820 Latham" by the Fifth Dimension from 1967. Yes, it sounds like the theme from "Twin Peaks," but it's not. It has been stated that the sample is "Requiem: 820 Latham"
This beat is a fuckin masterpiece, Gigan spit some dope lyric over it, but what keeps me coming back for more is the beat, the violins sound so fuckin sick, i cant get enough of it.
Told you the war was on they wanna keep you enslaved, this time its only people with the microchip that get paid ~ the rest are outcast, left to die they get no affection ~ its all a plan the next step is population correction that means, with the help of the U.N., they gonna merk a lot of folks at once and "keep it movin" ~ with no kinda repercussion for crimes, shit is obvious, lookin all stupid its in fronta ya eyes!
You guys are funny. bickering over the smallest things. the song is whatever you want it to be. however it applies to you. dont you get that about music? these guys (artists) dont care if you understand where they are commin from. make it mean something for YOU. after you do that, then I wouldnt mind hearing what you have to say.
i am sorry but i am so sick of people calling all these underground hip hop songs masterpieces or like it changed my life just stop really you sound like a tool i mean it is fine to think it but just keep your go damn mouth shut
i dunno, but i know its from one of Quincy Jones's songs, or a song Quincy Jones produced. go find that song out lol, ill tell u if i do find the sample, tell me the song name if u find it 1st
is it just me or songs like fastlane and this u can barely here the rappers over the music. I fucken love the rapping and the sampling is unreal. I just wish he would have done a little better job mixing.
This is raw hip hop at it's fullest... grimey basement beats....this the type of ish you listen to while you smoke a L with your homies rockin your Wu-wear..... Feel me ???
Man...I was so stoked when I heard the beat and I thought doom was going to spit on it. Blue balls.
