CYNE -- "Running Water"

[074FaTiiH]

vision is so ghost

[djMICHAELBOWDEN]

All due respect. Beast to the Max. Reminds me of "none shall pass" Aesop Rock.

[MikeWeezie]

Ingen Frygt? Dansker???

[BeatsOutDBricks]

this song makes me vision the world like if i didn't belong here

[randyrandyyrandyyy]

Seriously though.. I hear this every day, and it just hits me harder every single time. My soul at this point is on the verge of awakening to the light of love and appreciation of people as a whole. THANK YOU CYNE, FOR C.M.N.E.

[mmaronde15]

So dope..

[Heysmisu]

Thanks for exist.

[ElCaballo500]

If anyone could tell me what the elephant symbolises that would be awesome:)

[8triforce92]

Thanx!!^!!

[TroothBeT0ld]

This song is too dope....UNFORGIVABLE

[ThisKidYouAllKnow]

I ront understand the symbolism and meaning behind the words, but the flow and beat alone really speaks to you

[midwestmiddleman]

3mins of bliss...

[TonyMaczeta]

This is what i like, for real it's amazing. Respect Cyne !

[toorawforu23]

R.I.P. Nujabes..........

[matthewgroen]

@toorawforu23 I didn't know Nujabes produced these beats

[toorawforu23]

@matthewgroen Yep

[tymtrppr3]

@matthewgroen he definitely didnt. Speck and Enoch did

[tymtrppr3]

@matthewgroen To be precise it was only 3 tracks that Nujabes was featured on; DTFN, Highs 2 Lows and Feather

[tymtrppr3]

@tymtrppr3 i forgot about lady brown so 4

[Dutchmaster909]

i would like to see lil wayne get destroyed by cyne on national television in front of millions of people and see who is the best rapper alive!

"I Stand & I Fall & Get Up Cuz I'm Ready To Run Like Icarus Because I'm Close To The Sun"

[420HAVEFUN]

the offical facebook page of Akin Yai only has 56 likes as i write this..

what a fcking shame...

[samjs721]

@420HAVEFUN

that doesn't matter. cyne was never out to be popular. they only care about the content of their music. as long as they keep doing what they do best i dont mind.

[420HAVEFUN]

@samjs721 i agree , its just crazy in my opinion... , i thought Akin Yai would have a little more recognition on facebook... atleast from his true friends and fans, heh.

[samjs721]

@420HAVEFUN

maybe his true friends dont have facebook etc. i know i dont. maybe thats why.

[samjs721]

@420HAVEFUN

how do i sound ignorant? all i said was that dont care about being popular. thats not being disrespectful.

[ralik1212]

@420HAVEFUN because facebook is fucked up shit it's like brainwash for very stupid people

[Heysmisu]

@420HAVEFUN 225 with mine :D

[magozfelix11]

Made babys to this song! :)

[7finner]

this song made my headache go away

[Kyuzo24]

Cop this shit on Vinyl if you can, for herein lies the ever elusive Soul in Hip-Hop

[7Jamal8]

can i pot this track to the genre old school?or is 2004 to late=):

[surphkid11]

@7Jamal8  its underground not old school

[Flickodasicko]

@7Jamal8

the genre u could put it under is "GOOD MUSIC" right under pac n the rest of the other legends

[AdeptThePhonetic]

@Flickodasicko saying good music and pac in the same sentence is an oxymoron dude.

[Flickodasicko]

@AdeptThePhonetic sure.....

[7Jamal8]

omg old school in 2004>=???awesone

[AkagiFreaks]

Be hurt your ass or not, conscious is not the only form of hip-hop. Sure I love Cyne, as much as I love bluntsongs.

[Jonald944]

Slowly making a playlist of real rap songs, gonna add a good bit of Cyne to it! :)

[xTheFBP]

@Jonald944 Better have CunninLynguists, Binary Star, Cannibal Ox & Blackalicious in there!!

[Jonald944]

@xTheFBP All in good time my friend :)

[TheDquiK]

thank you pandora. now CYNE please get on the radio, your awesome

[AYEMang]

@TheDquiK Fuck the radio.

[vampiro212]

damn i've been listening to cyne all day...always dope coming up on additions to the music library.

[Oatmealisnotcereal]

Cyne, Tupac, Biggie, Big L is the rap/hiphop I listen to. Real rap, real meaning. Not none of that weezy bullshit..

[xTheFBP]

@Oatmealisnotcereal Wow, how original. Nobody on a CYNE video would be listening to CYNE...

[Oatmealisnotcereal]

@xTheFBP Too original. 

[brandons767]

Damn

[skatedgk11]

music is also a living for artist so by supporting they need money.

(i download, but i understand why they always want you to pay.)

[SmokinJoeification]

Artists nowadays recieve very little money for songs with the record labels and taxes getting in the way so if youre paying for music your really jut feeding the fucked uo thing that is the music industry

[leprickon]

@SmokinJoeification that's why more artists need to go independent! that's what tech n9ne and immortal technique did and they're both making more than they ever could at some shitty mainstream label. it seems that many coming up artists dont want to really work hard and are just in it for that quick buck.

[flyntvy805]

Somehow, this song has spoken to me. The words I do not yet understand, but I figure listening to this another hundred times should help

[dacomeupkid1]

trippy video

[VonHalford]

This is low quality, check out the other one /watch?v=YjerrJj4OhM

[VonHalford]

This is my favorite song

[stuwiitube]

...Damn this is amazing.

[MrMarkless]

This is DOPE!!!

[Ddoomalay]

first day into cyne and already im HOOKED !!!!

[yellowdough]

love this music!! enchanting... deep lyrics. hits the soul!

[migeezel]

check out this guy T11 and his song Intoxicated

He's cool man check him out, and search his other songs too yo

[mconionhead]

Aesop rock none shall pass

[moloi99]

Gotta love it!

[mynameisdady]

Nah, but when people preach that stuff about limewire and torrents it is annoying because the music industry is built around money like any other industry. Some of the best hip-hop 'labels' make shed loads of money from -loyal- fans, however are still as underground as the fuckin subway. Unless some how the venus project and the zeitgeist get their act together, all artists particularly underground artists are gonna need us to help. You love underground music? DO IT A FAVOUR... BUY ITS STUFF.

[GushOfEmotion]

Fucking dope right at ya !

[Drseptember2010]

CYNE is the best underground rappers keep doin ya thang

[antknow]

i never new he was talking about the clown called it until i really listened to the chours hahaha.

[iluvc0mpton]

whats the song called at the veryy end

[sdb077]

Sick video.

[saigalrahoul]

damn this song makes a reference to Stephen King's movie "it" throughout !

"down here we all float" - "pennywise in the gutter , im stealing the boat"

[emcee2205]

mainstream isn't all that bad sometimes... if u don't wanna think too much... sometimes music is simply what sounds good. All this poetry is perhaps too much for some. Having said that this is sick lyrically and musically. But it wouldn't really be something you'd dance to. Lil' Wayne's dadada really doesn't sound all that bad, but i guess he could use the same music and talk about something else. But hey... this shit wouldn't be all that cool if it wasn't all that esoteric

[scat4u]

@emcee2205 well said. but, instead of referring to it as mainstream, it should just be called dance music, since that's about all it is good for.

[TheRalphwoods]

What albums this off??

[420HAVEFUN]

@TheRalphwoods Evolution Fight (2005)

[JayexBabe]

Sick

[Saikanix]

Such an incredible song.

[ttowntiller34]

16 people are lil wayne fans...

tsk tsk.

[AnubisEye009]

@Otherfile1 copy and paste is a valuable tool isn't it? *condescending stare*

[DesalCbl]

Is this Mr. Lif's evil twin? Or alter ego?

[mynameismeowth]

im ready to run like icarus cuz im close to the sun..

fucking CYNE, so beautiful, you can cultivate my new experience any time.

Cultivating

Your

New

Experience

[csgunner1]

@mynameismeowth like icarus cuz im close to the sun...now thats a work of art, fuck i love hip hop

[eyesack9]

With age cyne gets better... every time i need a break from all the bullshit i turn on a cyne song and it all fades...

[dipmuthafukinset]

@eyesack9 my exact thought.



[iamright94]

i try to pick a specific part of the song that I like or where i thought something truly special was said, but i cant since every part of this song was just pure poetry. these guys true philosophers and just have such a way with words

[pepitolopez12]

im new to listening but i already know they are one of the best.

[aredmistywind]

Its tracks like this one that makes me love hip hop!

[AgnesSteinberg]

arbitrary comment about this being real rap and lil wayne sucking

[Triggernappy]

@AgnesSteinberg the irony of this comment is as deep as cyne, nice job!!!!!!!!

[TheEazyDuzIt95]

@AgnesSteinberg yeah but he doesn't

[bmullin151]

@AgnesSteinberg haha there is literally 10 of these comments on evey video i watch

[RenegadeAction]

@AgnesSteinberg are comments on appreciation arbitrary to you? An arbitrary comment is one not really worth saying. Thought should be put into the system by removing "arbitrary" comments.

[leahlauraful]

i like this.

[rechedelphar]

i just wish it was a little longer

[Lucifer986]

this is art

[yourmumisadick]

if you wanna hear akin from CYNE latest solo track links here /watch?v=4xSk7G5DnK0

[fruit017]

you know i'll make a rap group called Co-cyne just so i can't possibly get the chance of standing with them...

[wh1t3kid]

raw.

[ollycollison]

shit this is so good

[92292sept]

Does anybody know any other artist who are just like them?

can you please message me

[3592687410]

@92292sept - i got u. Artist: "SHAD"

[HighandMighty609]

This is tough man....real music for real ears...you gotta love it....underground artists like MURS, CYNE, BLU, BRO ALI, ESOTERIC, TOP SCHOLARS ALL NEED TO BE LISTENED TO BY THE MASSES!!!Please pay them their respect!

[KomDaKom]

I don't usually say things like this but I just can't resist man, I've listened a lot of underground rappers but I gotta admit

CISE STARR AND AKIN IS THE MOST UNDERRATED RAPPERS IN THE WORLD ! !

[nickistix87]

haha my bad:)

[MrDJRaulDuke]

iMoreAsianR Re:

Cyne is fundamentally against consumerism, as are most real hip-hop bands. If anything, Cyne would want his music shared and pirated across the web. This way, every individual--regardless of class or salary-rate--is able to listen, and, perhaps, learn from his music.

[nickistix87]

@MrDJRaulDuke cyne consists of two persons, Akin & Cise starr:) good point though.

[deathbycupid]

@nickistix87 your completely ignoring enoch and speck. you think them beats are just playing themselves?

[buffbobbeefpants]

i dont even really listen to rap but this is pretty good

[MrHalfkast]

"Sometimes I'll let the stress get the best of me

Empty liquor bottles litter the floor before was my enemy"

Youtube is the shyt, forever finding gems like this daily, video is dope 2!!

[PocketsGotBigMoney]

good music video this guy deserves respect

[Lucifer986]

it was never about underground or mainstream half underground hardcore are whack its about art, Cyne show little concern for genre restrictions and expectations ttat fans might have they simply made music that they felt. The artist simply expresses and that is what cyne did and its up to us to draw what ever meaning we find within a song. This is what HIPHOP is. larger then the block and the screen and the small speakers that only allow sound to go so far. HIPHOP IS A EXPRESSION OF EXISTENCE

[akparker1]

sometimes i let the stress get the best of me...

[BlacckChrome]

how could you even dislike this...

heard the instrumetnal a long time ago, damn and i thought my verse was dope haha

[Warriorzecele]

Now you need 13 bullets!

[KingUw]

wtf? how come i just found these rappers? im listening rap for 10 years and i have never heard these guys. these guys should be @the top

[GeeKuroKami]

I love listening to real chill hip hop songs on rainy days, sick as fuck.!

[ChiVic64]

Did anyone else notice the reference to the movie "It".?

"We goin' to the river, downhill we all float

Penywise in the gutter, i'm stealing the boat"

[MrBlueScholars808]

This is real hip-hop. It can't get better than this, I'm so thankful for real poets.

Peace.

[xxeu4riaxx]

@MrBlueScholars808 So true!

[MrYoungkriss]

Im 14, and i got to say cyne is my favorite, gotta lov'em. i remember months ago when i first found him, was seriously like getting an eargasm

[phatlaced]

Way to fucken underated...

[guthrielindquist1]

@phatlaced agreed to the fullest man. its sad how music like this is overshadowed. but hey. as long as i am able to vibe to their music im cool.

[bertohlok]

@wayneisagook i agree this does look like ann aesop rock video.

[wayneisagook]

this looks like an Aesop Rock video

[wallacoloo]

Not at all what I expected. This doesn't sound remotely like running water.

[stacerobin1]

hmmm cyne have really got me listening... and I have the best ear for this stuff. trust me. but some of y'all are kind of ruining the overall vibe with your nonpositive reparte. Really. Do not call each other out and correct one another. This ain't hardball. And while the 9 bullets thing was funny (it was it was), bullets aren't really ... funny.

[wlebluwre]

nice,thanks! just bought it at amazon. very nice album!!

[wlebluwre]

which*, sorry : D

[wlebluwre]

wich album pls?!?!

[solucky1985]

@wlebluwre Evolution Fight

[peturr916]

So many CYNE songs on my playlist, always pumped when I run

[excruciator000]

Don't know about you, but "running water" sure got my water running.

[MurderousDopeman]

@excruciator000 gross

[emny84]

@excruciator000 HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHHA­HAHAHAHA

[pewse]

best ever

[pauliscoolin]

where is he from?

[superniokas]

this beat is mezmerising

[gmaster8007]

yo, sick shit man.lovely beat.

[iMoreAsianR]

fuck the people who put this on limewire, this is real music and deserves to be bought. i just bought a couple of their albums, hope this helps them pay the bills. because honestly only trash music belongs in limewire, i don't understand why people would pay to listen to shit like lil wayne, whos lyrics consists of "fuck bitches get money"

[NBAjojoTV]

@iMoreAsianR soooo true!

[MellaMique]

@iMoreAsianR man i happen to come across your comment, which i think is stupid, money doesnt matter to him, its about the message he's sendin and if it happen to get across faster through limewire so be it. some of us dont have money to buy "a couple" CDs. Its all about sharing. i also happen to make music, and id rather be heard than bought.

[mcRioRemedy]

@MellaMique nicely put

[MellaMique]

@mcRioRemedy thanks man, foos be gettin the wrong ideas these days..

[conor1236955]

@iMoreAsianR

people dont intentionally put songs on limewire, if they do their faggots, if you use limewire, everytime you open, it scans your harddrive for all your media files and puts them on there, so if youve ripped those albulms to your computer, then used limewire at a later date, youve just contributed to the pirate community :) argh!!

[MellaMique]

@conor1236955 haha

[griqs]

@iMoreAsianR I agree with you in this I feel like buying an album but where can I FIND THIS AT? I want to buy Cyne's album and Nujabes

[iMoreAsianR]

@griqs i bought nujabes modal soul from japan in this music store i forgot the name, but it had force of nature, nomak, fat jon all the guys on the samurai champloo sound track. as of nujabe's album impression and departure i got from amazon. they cost alot, but it was worth it. i bought 3 of Cyne's albums evolution flight,cyne, and time being from my friend who is a small time dj in new york(went to college with him" he got 2 of each of those albums, and they're signed by all members of cyne

[piercehannigan]

@iMoreAsianR fuck bitches, get money is Biggie. dummy.

[iMoreAsianR]

@piercehannigan dummy? u like listening to that? now im not saying i hate biggie, i love most of his old stuff. juicy was a great song about his life story, which i enjoy listening to story-telling hip hop, his message was that he started off a loser, with no money in his pocket, to being somebody, he had to shape up for his family.

[KyriSvk]

@iMoreAsianR I wish i could find this music in stores :/

[mcRioRemedy]

@iMoreAsianR ooh la di da, buying a couple of cd's. that means your one of the good guys does it?

most music stores dont stock cyne smart arse, so what now? are we not to listen top them on here because we never paid for them? what about you tube? more people use that than limewire, get a grip moreasian. at least you got it right bout lil wayne being a punk. . .

[iMoreAsianR]

@mcRioRemedy no shit its hard to find, but those who constantly search for it like i did, deserve to listen to it. even if stumble on utube and found one of their songs is good enough. mtv just feeds u the music they want u to hear, unlike underground where u have to search and look for good music, like how it was back then

[mcRioRemedy]

@iMoreAsianR a bit of a selfish opinion but on you go.

so when you bought your cdv and your friends sayed can i get a copy please - you must have turned around and told them "NO", go n buy your own. sad really. spread the love not the hate mate. . .

i have more underground imported records than you, i have been collectin since 91/92.

but when i come across a banger or someone new whos great, i let everyone know bout it and have a listen, thats just me though... P.S-no1 i know watches MTV anymore

[stupidguy97]

@mcRioRemedy He's just telling people to support CYNE by paying for their records; it's not like he's actually saying that their music should be taken off youtube so that nobody else can listen unless they pay. Either you're too dumb to understand that simple concept or you're just a fucking troll. In either case, annoying jackasses like you should shut up and enjoy the music.

[mcRioRemedy]

@stupidguy97 i have the albums dickhead, i do enjoy the music, i just find it sad that he wants less people to hear CYNE because the cant afford cd's. or maybe have never heard of CYNE until stumbling across them on here or limewire (i personally dont and never will use limewire, its just not my thing)

you seem to me to be the dumb troll replying to something that didnt concern you, maybe if you listened to the track instead of replying you might be happier, but people like you never are. . .

[stupidguy97]

@mcRioRemedy Really? I'm the troll? Look who's talking. You're the idiotic dickhead who's insulting someone on something that doesn't even concern you (your original response to iMoreAsianR). If you've actually learned how to read, maybe your tiny brain would be able to understand that HE WASN'T SAYING THAT MUSIC SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF YOUTUBE. YOU EVEN SAID THAT MORE PEOPLE USE YOUTUBE THAN LIMEWIRE. It's funny how people like you think that they're the shit when they're just retarded egomaniacs.

[mcRioRemedy]

@stupidguy97 it actually did concern me stupid. i was giving a general objective, he made the staement to get responses. . . DO YOU SEE?

and i cant read now? i should learn should i? YOU REALLY CANT HELP MAKING YOURSELF LOOK LIKE AN ANGRY TEENAGER CAN YOU. . . and yes, me and him are conversating, we dont need a third wheel thats a square. so fuck off, I AINT WASTING TIME ON YOU ANYMORE, youd only love it if i kept replying to ya, its only socialising you get to do i bet. BORN LOSER

[KevinLikesBergers]

@iMoreAsianR I doubt they care.

[l2oss]

@iMoreAsianR Music shouldn't be about the money..true music like Cyne, 9th wonder & Murs, Pharcyde, Nujabes, and other less popular artists create ART and should be SHARED.

If you want to support them go see a group live!

[MichaelDaPsycho562]

@iMoreAsianR thats true man u got my vote

[TrueDominguez]

@iMoreAsianR maby broke muthafuckers like me cant afford 2 i rather burn that real shit off of limewire so fuck you 2 say that music on limewire is trash yea i agree that lil wayne music n all that mainstreem shit is wack im all about that underground the truth but just like immortal technique said (burn my music) tho there music deserves 2 be bought n have more recognistion but it ant about the money if thats wat ur promoting its about the message

[iMoreAsianR]

@TrueDominguez then maybe broke asses like you should have finished high school. Go get a job you lazy idiot, i had 2 jobs while going to college(2 years ago), i had 2 you can't even get 1. plus their music isn't even that expensive, you can find it on itunes for 11$ per album, even on amazon music. 1$ per song.

[TrueDominguez]

@iMoreAsianR haha u act like u know me shit chill out n stop bragging im still in school n i was just saying but im ghetto cant blame me right? n i havent tryed looking 4 a job
