KRS-One - Beef

[brettux]

Spitting PURE truth over 20 years ago !!!

[TurkBack2]

Grilling a juicy steak right now.

[DrTommyGouranga]

GOURANGA!!!! KRS ALL THE WAY!

[maciekkk123]

Go Veg/etari/an !

[MISAMEscobar]

Is KRS-One a vegetarian or a vegan?? I think not eating meat is pretty healthy, but to go as far as being a Vegan, where u dont eat any dairy products or eggs is pretty extreme.

[maciekkk123]

Nothing extreme in Vegan diet, its tasty and healthy.. and if you like you can always find the alternative to dairy/eggs..

->Extreme is how people treat Cows and Chickens.

[SEPHORA853]

NGO UM OSIRIS  SEPHORA - beef.

[Kcamneb1]

I feel like a big juicy rump steak right about now!

[justforthelulzzz]

Why can't I listen to a song without looking at comments by a bunch of self righteous assholes.

[fiddle02]

@SKuXxSUPREME I agree. Saying vegetarian is the natural diet of man is the dumbest thing i have ever heard.

[dhampex]

Like that raza sample that krs one put underneath his rhymes!

[hustler1babe]

I love Krs one but right now i feel like puking :(

[Portlandhardstylers]

@hustler1babe stop eating meat then .

[badboyrhythmdub]

I had no idea KRS was vegan. Fair credit to him as diets seem to piss allot of people off for some reason. But he is rapping about subjects which are true to his heart which every rapper/ artist should be doing anyway. Sadly most just rap about material things these days. Now I'm off to eat some Quorn. Peace!

[ronaldsneek]

Those animals don't want to die.. Internet woke me up, vegetarian for 6 years, my son 5 years. Happy without sneakly packed corpses!

[StatenIzzy1]

if he's vegetarian..because animals are slaughtered massively..all for the cash its fucking terrible...a lot of the animals in these industry's are thrown into grinders for no fucking reason..is that really a civilized society ...i dnt wana sound like one of those pussy animal rights people...cuz im a street dude .urban type and i still looked into it and its horrible..the native americans really knew how to live and neveer killed animals ..unless they had too...they had ddeep love and respect

[newharbour9]

i eat meat but i eat my own beef i feed it stuff from subway like breed and tomatows so its much healthyer then store, i still eat store stuff every once in a while

[9998833]

food for thought..............

[WOMPWOMPWHATITDO]

Just because your girlfriend doesn't know how to be a healthy vegetarian doesn't mean the rest of us don't. You don't need to take supplements, all you have to do is eat more foods that contain iron, zinc, and protein.

[lazymatts]

my girlfriend stoped eating meat for a year and had low blood iron and protien. she was very skinny and kept blacking out. now she eats meat and is fine. You may argue that you can take supplements but if you have to take supplements it means your missing out on a vital part of your diet and you have to make up for it or some people just want extra.

[ProtestArtVideo]

@lazymatts the number of people that are sick and dying b/e of eating meat is huge... my mom had breast cancer and for last 10 years has been veg and now vegan & I believe it helped her to her road to recovery. There are multiple sources of iron... your gf just needs more support and to do more research... she can get sick now from cancer, diabetes, stroke, heart attack plus she's eating tortured animals who don't deserve to live in factory farms and die horrendous deaths in slaughterhouses

[16Tejaswini]

Yay, go vegan!!!!

[drex48239]

DEAD PREZ

[Fibromomto2]

This information is out there for everyone in multiple different formats, yet America is still 150 lbs heavier than it was in 1950. Wonder why? Listen to the song again... yeah, hit replay. For the record, visit a Tyson grow house sometime. They can take a chick and have it full grown and ready to process in 4 weeks. Tell me that is normal! Ask any animal farmer, they'll tell you all about it. And we still eat that garbage by the ton.

[blindcynic]

I'm a metal fan, but much respect for this dude.

[OnThatPowder]

chuuuuuuuch

[mmmikeyxx]

Jesus Christ this man is a gift to the world.

[themixedupkid]

they just dont make hip hop like this anymore...

[tennis3022]

I GOT 1 MORE......................

[TJMNabk]

YEA!!!!

[apictureofruit]

I like this song! So relevant....

[blackman666ful]

People live off plants alone but an only animal based diet won't sustain you.What does that tell you?Plant based is the source of nutrition not animal based.Wake up people and free yourselves!!!

[dggfhdfghdf]

I like this song with pickles, onions, lettuce, and honey mustard, oh, and Bacon

[kustomflex]

i have the book he mentions "how to eat to live" its Muslim and i see only truth in it! Having said that i eat meat everyday!

Blastmastah keeps it real!

[fffffcccckkkk]

this song is the reason i went vegan 6 years ago, thanks KRS!

[MyWordizBond]

Slaughterhouses must be stopped. Has anybody really seen what is going on there. It's worst than an horror movie I swear it will tear your heart apart. Str8 up murder. Jesus said thou shall not kill. Not only humans, everything.

Eat food grain, milk products, wheat, vegetable fruits etc. Don't even have to kill the plant actually. this is being God conscious, and the ticket out of this prison house.

[sherribailey75]

@MyWordizBond No milk products. There is a ton of abuse on dairy farms. And the male babies become veal. So if you really care about protecting animals, cut out meat AND dairy.

[Itsreallikethatyall]

this track rules! krs spits hot fire!!!!!

[islakay]

LUVS IT!!!!

[KnowledgeAccumulated]

this track made me think more about meat intake for years & in hindsight it almost feels like this track was foreshadowing of me becoming a vegetarian.

[gomandizzle]

Oh, donkey meat is actually very tasty with grilled onions and peppers.

[fffffcccckkkk]

so is human.

[chialikeitgrows]

@gomandizzle fuck you douchetard

[gomandizzle]

Hmmm . . . . I wonder why this song is not played on commerical radio?

[kustomflex]

i have the book. its hard to abide by!

[TruthIsWatISeek]

dont need to be a vegetarain jus do wat

WVliberty says support local farms, family farmed meat is healthy and good for you, fuck corporate farming

[chialikeitgrows]

@TruthIsWatISeek wow,take a biology class & get real

[TruthIsWatISeek]

[TruthIsWatISeek]

@TruthIsWatISeek jus grow and treat yo own and kno what your doing:]

[TruthIsWatISeek]

[TheTMoney87]

I eat meat and plants Im trying 2 cut off the meat

[WVliberty]

support local farms, family farmed meat is healthy and good for you, fuck corporate farming

[jaugernaut16]

songs gay but the beat is hot

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Its gay, i think its above your head.

[jaugernaut16]

no i know what its talking about but the concept sounds like a fucking school project! LOL!

[TruthIsWatISeek]

@jaugernaut16 how is it gay? its facked type in meet your meat u tube r google

[tuffskillz]

I agree as well

i also am a vegetarian

[mysticism9]

first time i heard this one...he's good

...i'll have to agree with him, as I am a vegetarain

[ughpivots]

eat your fuckin vegetables kidis... :|

[heylover3]

FRESH for 2010, you SUCKERRRRRS!

[ClarkesonTheMarksman]

Christ and people thought he was mad in the 80's cause he predicted BSE, KRS ONE, WOAH, mad skillz

[Boogers4dinner]

I wonder how KRS ONE feels about Chicken, or Seafood. Do you think he eats Chicken or Seafoods?

[heylover3]

I'm pretty sure he's a vegetarian no meat, fish or eggs. Although he might consume dairy, since he has some philisophical roots in philosophy from ancient India.

[Boogers4dinner]

Yeah, He looks healthy. That's what healthy eating can do for you as you get older. M.C. Lyte looks better than she did when she was young. It's amazing how not smoking or drinking and eating right can do for your youthful look..and not forget to stay away from drugs.

[heylover3]

Author George Bernard Shaw (a vegetarian) was asked how come he looks so young for his age... his reply was that its not him who looks young, its everyone else who looks old, but what can you expect from people who feast on corpses and spirits.

[Boogers4dinner]

Oh, wow. That's real interesting. Years of eating the right foods and drinking water will help you maintain a youthful look for years. :)

[useacondompeople]

timeless and intelligent. we need hip hop like this today. all nonsense sex/ violence now in rap. KRC one, please never give up. we need u and your music/intellect.

[jlajikal]

first time i heard this it changed my mentality towards meat....gradually became vegan.

[D7NEWTON7]

poison in our food

[puddleofwee]

look past the message, this song is badass

[GYANACRLO]

step into a world is better than this

[Lardyvegan]

Released the year I became Vegan, good times...

[EspritDuKarton90]

THE TEACHER !!! *****

[Lizzygreenblatt]

YOU TUBE KEYWORD: TEMPLE OF HIP HOP

[perfectsky5]

you can believe it or you can doubt it ...

[BlackHit]

This song is on point but I think KRS is speaking more to the large meat producing farms where the cattle are kept in little cages not allowed to move and be free like they're supposed to. If you getting good, organic free range beef, there is nothing wrong with eating that!

[heylover3]

No KRS is talking about BEEF in general. organic free range beef is still very bad for the body, mind, and earth.

KRS is a vegetarian, and for a good reason.

Look into it... veggie diet is the natural diet of man.

[newharbour9]

@heylover3 no REAL beef is good fake is not

[ESSENCEOFEACHTHING]

@heylover3

Yes! Animal hormones do harm to the human body.

[sunmanpatoo]

damn, i remember this song, wow...memories, thanks

[TheConsciousLife]

True That! This is a good one Peace. Eating means also what you rep, and what you listen to! What you feed your head....

[Indhegoh]

To meaningcorrupted1: I'm not judging you or people that eat a lot of soy, I'm just saying what I eat and my opinions regarding the subject. More power to you. We should both be on the same page, not arguing with each other. This lifestyle is hard enough, right?

[veganswines]

KRS ONE is so good and excellent. absolutely great!!!!!!

[MeaningCorrupted1]

one of the best beats and message songs of all time. wish they would give this one heavy rotation on the radio.

[jelyk]

krs kills it

[Indhegoh]

So, you're a vegetarian that eats a mostly vegan diet. At least you're vegan most of the time. I can't do it and I have mixed feelings about it. I originally planned on going all the way but lack the willpower. At least I don't eat meat and I don't wear leather or fur and try to stay away from animal-derived products. About 99% of the time I'm not even thinking about meat, but it's that other 1% occasionally that gets to me.

[MeaningCorrupted1]

wtf?

[MARIACLASS]

krs da best

[Indhegoh]

MSpheperd: Oh, yeah, don't eat too much soy, either, which is a mistake a lot of people make. A little is okay but soy lowers testosterone and elevates estrogen and too much can also effect the thyroid. Plus a lot of the fake meat is loaded with chemicals, preservatives and other trash. There are healthier brands, though, and some of it is just like meat. I don't know, when I think of meat as food it CAN seem desirable, but if I think of it as an animal that goes away instantly.

[SenRaps]

what youy say about soy iz TRUE. i have also hurt that it can make your dick smaller or stunt tha growth of in when you're young. that might explain why many Asians are small down there cuz soy has been eatn i think for 1000z of yearz so it may have caused mutationz.

i dont eat meat or fish and i avoid dairy and eggz. but i also avoid soy and basically never eat fake meat cuz most fake meats are garbage filled with poison...prolly worse than meat.

[MeaningCorrupted1]

it is true, i was eating lots of soy and now i have tits and a vagina! i was like whooooooooaaaaaaaa.... duuuurrrrrpppp!

[MeaningCorrupted1]

"i dont eat meat or fish and i avoid dairy and eggz. but i also avoid soy and basically never eat fake meat cuz most fake meats are garbage filled with poison...prolly worse than meat."

when i make soy "loaf" it contains mostly vital wheat gluten, chickpea flour, tofu, and nutritional yeast flakes... i'd say that shit is nowhere near as bad for you as drug pumped meat.

[Indhegoh]

MSphepherd: Our society is catered towards meat-eating so it can be difficult with choices and people's attitudes - especially in places like Michigan can reflect that (although Ann Arbor would be a lot better than other places).

This beat is like a Dancehall Reggae Riddim and it's just a simple beat loop so you focus more on the lyrics. Been listening to KRS since Criminal Minded when I was a kid and he was one of the things influencing my vegetarianism. I even have "Advance" = first song.

[Indhegoh]

MShepherd: I try to do my best but if you're unable to go completely vegetarian than be a "vergetarian" which is someone that is mostly a vegetarian but eats meat occasionally and if they can afford it, tries eating stuff like organic/free range/kosher meat, etc. Sometimes it's hard with me, too, and I occasionally still crave poultry. I don't have any craving for beef or pork or anything at all. It gets easier with time and more and more second nature. Don't care what others think, either.

[MachoLibRey]

I've been a vegan for 4 years, and I havent craved meat or chicken whatsoever

but now Im like a quasi vegan

if somebody offers me to go get some desert or something, Im down, other than that I dont eat any animal products

[heylover3]

hahah i never heard that term before... vergetarian... thats awesome.

You guys stick with yer veggie diets. I quit eating meat in 96 and hadnt eaten it since then. The longer you go without consuming it.. the more disgusting it becomes!!

[WeaponX1986]

@heylover3 I fully agree with you. Such a greedy industry.

[MShepherd88]

Regarding KRS's song, though, this is one of my favorites. The beat seems a little strange to me, but the lyrics are some of his best.

[Indhegoh]

If you go vegetarian or vegan do it gradually (I failed the first few times). I do it for EVERY reason there is (spiritual, ethical, health, evnironmental). Make sure you get enough protein, good fats, vitamin B-12 and omega-3's. I eat organic egss and dairy but the majority of my food is plant based.

[MShepherd88]

(To Indhegoh) Couldn't have said it better myself! I am a heterosexual male who is trying to go vegetarian for all the reasons you mentioned. It's hard because I still really like the taste, but I've made my way down to maybe once a week, and I intend to eat less.

[MShepherd88]

(To Indhegoh) I've found that it is difficult under some circumstances to be vegetarian though. Two examples that I can think of are when I'm staying with my "meat-and-potato" grandparents or eating at U of M's cafeterias where sometimes the veggie options are needing some help. What do you do when you encounter situations like this?

[Indhegoh]

Well, KRS-ONE isn't gay or a woman, and I'm not gay or a woman (I'm a vegetarian). I'm not a preachy vegetarian but I have a question to ask - do you think that every Buddhist, Hindu, Jain, Seventh-Day Adventist, etc. male is "gay" or a "woman? Quit having stupid, ignorant, brainwashed ideas. A lack of concern for animal life doesn't make you a "real man", it just makes you sick in the head.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Also, dont need to be fat to have a heart attack, the leading killer in usa. Back to sick animal abuses, watch this video @ meat (dot) org.

[hgprt12]

All vegetarians I know are ether gays or girls...

Which are you?

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Tons of dudes r - athletes, musicians, historic figures famousveggie (dot) com. Watch Meat (dot) org and u should respect it.

[hgprt12]

name one real person. its perfectly easy to claim you are a veggie for ratings. I do not know single vegetarian heterosexual male. Do you?

And how long have the been a vegetarian for EH?

1 day?

1 month?

1 year?

all their life?

You can survive on vegan diet but you can't be healthy.

These are just questions I am not homophobic or racist.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

Good question. Well for older people to show long term health Paul McCartney and Bob Barker have been for 25+ years. For athletes Olympian Carl Lewis was for many years and many athletes today on famousveggie (dot) com / veganbodybuilding (dot) com have for years, unsure of how many. Me about 10 years. Veg dates back to Davinci...we live about 5 years longer on average, meat is closely correlated to heart disease which is the leading killer. Health VeganHealth (dot) org Registered Dietician.

[hgprt12]

Do you agree that there is an age (a teenage) during which vegan diet can have deleterious effect on health? -- I tried being veggie; didn't last a week! I do not understand how

people could live without meat. if you are 20-30 (and fat) going vegan will not harm you at all but if you are not what effect will it have? I felt angry and unfocused during my "go veggie" attempt. Vegetarianism doesn't work for everyone.I will agree that reducing meat intake can be beneficial for some but not for all.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

I hear you, at first any lifestyle change is hard and frustrating. After time it gets easier, espeically when throwing in some of the veg-meats available now, but cutting back helps you and animals some. That website veganhealth (dot) org by the RD and through experiences of others I know that have done it since birth and are healthy adults now. Some cultures have been doing it for centuries, so its very feasible and proven okay, more of a habit than necessity from all of my research.

[VeganMotorcyclePilot]

I forgot some of it is mental since were taught (mainly from commercials/businesse$) milk and meat make us strong. At first I though I would get weaker too because I was into fitness and lifting weights, until finding out more like veganbodybuilding (dot) com and veganmusclepower (dot) com. Some people actually do it soley for health reasons not animals or planet...

[mijablaqtiger]

I stoppedd eating Meat

when I first heard this.

Preach!

[stuntsly9]

dey do dat wit chicken 2 cuz im bout 2 stop eatin dat shit

[cyborgsleuth]

They do it to whatever they get their filthy hands on.

[hgprt12]

All vegetarians I know are ether gays or girls...

Which are you?

[rsamuel36]

krs1- you are da man Raymond

[MShepherd88]

Teach on, KRS!

[AfraRe1]

Damn I still love this track

[kustomflex]

This wasn't even public knowledge for years after Kris was warning us hip hoppers! We have no excuse!

[kekkan]

Damn I was looking for this.

[TheThirdEyeCeesU]

Now THIS is what I'm talkin' about!!! Classic health joint from the Blastmaster KRS-1. Good lookin' out, bruh!

[ganstawar93]

thank you, and sorry, i could find '30 Cops' on my computer. if i get it, i will put it on!
