Been following your videos for a while. It's great to see you growing as an artist and combining your talents on this video.

[OfficialPromoterwWc]

This is quite excellent. Real Hip Hop and no doubt about it.

Pray that you Link Up with world Wide connects ...

Peace to you, sun.

[MrTru843]

This. Is. Incredible. I don't care about the contest anymore... PLEASE make a mixtape or something.... Your flow isn't as much about "flow" per se, but the story, the imagery you give (And I don't mean your animation, which by the way was epic) is mind blowing... I guess what I'm saying is.... I NEED MORE!!!

[HistorianHimself]

@MrTru843

you can download my album on my website. also, i'm working on two new albums now.

[sephirothD2]

This is awesome! The faces on the mountains are a great detail.

[JarlFalstaff]

I am glad you finally did something with Mike Kalombo.... 

[castillojose13657]

[lllzenithlll]

you never disappoint man.

[thamagicsho2003]

Yeah im feeling this famo, you did the video too?!?

[CriticallyIndefinite]

@thamagicsho2003 Yeah. If you go on his site he describes how he made the video. I thought it was pretty cool eye opener not only because of video itself but his style, never heard anything like it.

[HistorianHimself]

@thamagicsho2003

thanks Ea. yeah, animation is my day-job. originally i wanted to have the monster getting shot by missiles and lazers as it walks (with explosions on beat) but i didn't have time to animate all that by the contest deadline...

...did you notice what's hiding in the mountains?

[njpanyca]

pure INSANITY!

[HistorianHimself]

@njpanyca
