[aw1133t]

OK - let me quote, "You blow idiot" from shifty2ify.

Love the witty repartee...can't live with an opinion other than your own? Chill...it's just what I think...

[aw1133t]

Wow, this blows...

[shifty2ify]

@aw1133t you blow idiot

[myspacecomrogiie]

[shifty2ify]

[simonking195]

@shifty2ify wasnt aware we're a seperate race... hes xenophobic not racist lol

[urion43]

@myspacecomrogiie your loss for being closed minded. And if anything WE are the ones with "gay" accents they speak ENGLISH in England. bigup jehst from canada

[trizthe1]

Olschool.. I love that shit.

Hiphop 4 life

[altar3]

underjehstimated

[ForsakenVictimsMusic]

Like sick beats and lyrics? Check us out...

[MrJackWaters]

This dude to me, is london. "To painted train lines, chrome over red brick, reflected, like a gem stone in a cess pit". JESUS FUCKING CHRIST. this dude just completed me

[micicle]

Is there an instrumental track for this song? I love the beat

[MikeyBiz1]

amazing lyrics, chester p and jehst? where are they???

[cestmoijesuistonpapa]

anybody that loves hip hop should know and love him

[BaronMilkington]

"Your death wish written in blood." *spine tingles*

[kurt2161984]

proper wordsmith......

[feartoilet]

i can't listen too much other hip hop after jehst. nothing compares.

[jimmybeast1112]

@feartoilet Immortal technique, diabolic, sun rise above, fort minor, styles of beyond, kruse, macklemore , apathy, dead prez <3 .. check them out

[feartoilet]

@jimmybeast1112 nothing compares.

[jimmybeast1112]

@feartoilet You didn't check them out..

[feartoilet]

@jimmybeast1112 i did, i always listen to immortal and apathy. but neither of them put me in the mood that jehst does, thanks for the suggestions, i still need to check out macklemore.

[z0mgrugbyreturns]

@jimmybeast1112 lol. None of those guys touch Jehst at his best, and I love all of them to death.(Except Fort Minor, they're average)

You find me one song from any of them that comes close to this song. You can't. The lyrics and production are just that much more with Jehst.

Content wise a few of those named can hang with Jehst, but in terms of lyricism and poetry? No way.

[DemiSonic]

I love the use of Yes's Sound Chaser, what an awesome sample!

[HipHopAus]

"Infected by the forked tongue of a liar, now my thoughts are the colour of fire"

"I see ghosts dance in the trail of my weed smoke"

One of the greatest of all time

[OldSkoolGeneral]

Survival of the hardest artist!!

[AleyG23]

wat a fucking tune.

[BillBuchananFtw]

@mattybeatslayer LOL chris morris refference there

[khalithistle]

actually mate im gorgeous, and you're a appalling, useless, weak-voiced, mechanical mumbly talentless shitstain of a rapper. i bet your mum cant even tolerate that shit. give up. now. noone will ever care about you.

[jpoetic26]

I drink black rain...take ah notha swigg and Im drunk... Damn!!!! He a beast!!!

[z0mgrugbyreturns]

@jpoetic26 He says black grain, as in black malt, alcohol.

[Praying4tidalWaves]

prying open my third eye

[mcrst]

amazing.. truely amazing

[nathanblud123]

his music is an addiction

[voguifly]

Will I ever be able to stop playing this over and over?

[FakeDeath92]

that album cover is kool

[conceptual0theorist]

just underestimated is the brother of stupidity. underestimated... jehst is a drifting beauty. a master of the universe, his own. peace.

[stef28rojas]

can see dancing ghosts in the trail of my weed smoke....(YAY)...!!

[fityfive]

i think this is my favorite hip-hop song of all time...

[BIGTXX]

what an epic event in your life to happen.....kinda profound really

[shamploo82]

I think Jehst and Shing02 should do a track together! tootnik!

[groovechamp31]

this is about the demise of the steel industry in the north of england right?

either way its about as raw and sick as it gets....

'jehst gives belief to a sceptic, the truth neglected like open wounds that turned sceptic'.... quite possibly my favourite rhyme ever.....

[jjamietthomas]

wounds that turned septic even

[mountjarvis]

infected by the fork tongue of a lier...referring to the reptillian bloodline

[EyezofMan24]

yeh hes up on all that shit, new world order and so forth. the guys heavy man seen him live a bag of times.

[mountjarvis]

i'm not quite sure why somebody has thumbs downed me, he is referring to the reptilian/illuminati bloodlines :S

[ubmilitant]

wats that enlighten me?

[khalithistle]

no, he's not. snakes = forked tongues. snakes. snakes as in liars, cheats. an association dating back at least as far as the old testament

jehst may be a conspiracy nut but he's not a fucking lunatic

[khalithistle]

where did you hear him do so, exactly?

[khalithistle]

you appear to be right, and in that case he IS in fact a lunatic, or at the very least a bit of a space cadet. shame. maybe interference from big daddy reptile is the reason why he hasnt put out anything worth listening to since 2003

[mountjarvis]

@khalithistle again your being a moron for speaking out on something that you are not fully educated on!! do ya home work, he may not have put out his own work but he has put out alot of good artists work out on his label, which he is more focused on. He hasnt bought anything out from himself becuase he has been tieing up alot of loose ends with the label and making his release perfect and waiting for the right time to put it out.

[khalithistle]

i dont need any education to find everything jehst's done since falling down (and a lot of falling down itself) to be a lot of shite. and "waiting for the right time" my arse, the guy's put out one ep in seven years for fuck's sake

[mountjarvis]

@khalithistle 1 ep, underworld epics is classed as an album you goon, 1 EP yes but you make it sound like thats all he put out.......

[khalithistle]

underworld epics is classed as an album, yeah, but it's not classed as a jehst solo album

[ILLER121]

havent heard the mengi bus mixtape then no?

[mountjarvis]

@khalithistle hmm again you do not know what the fuck you are talking about, 1 ep have you had ur head in the sand?? because i recall a mixtape - mengi bus mixtape

an album - underworld epics

a 12" dynamite sound

an album nuke proof suit

an instrumental album nuke proof instrumentals

a 12 stand up 12

a 12 monotony 12

a 12 the misson ft micall parknsun

plus countless feutures and remixs

and dont forget the 30 releases of other peoples work he's put on his label, YOU GOON!!

[khalithistle]

in seven years, he has put out ONE proper solo album, which was 33 minutes long and so for all intents and purposes an EP. underworld epics and mixtapes are not proper albums

and rappers/musicians generally put out 12 inch records and do guest appearances AS WELL as albums. they dont pick one or the other.

so i repeat...one EP in seven years. and it was shite

[z0mgrugbyreturns]

@mountjarvis No he isn't. He's referring to the snake in the garden of eden. Liars in most Christian countries are charactarised as having forked tongues.

Reptilian humanoids don't exist. It's a David Icke myth created to discredit traditional NWO and illuminati theories. Icke is a disinfo agent lunatic. Anyone who buys into the idea of reptilians is a whacko. Not a shred of evidence for it. Not a shred, not even in Ickes own books. Only hearsay and stories told by other lunatics.

[MrGangaheaD88]

@z0mgrugbyreturns IF they did exist and have been in control for thousand of years they surely would have perfected the art of covering their backs.

[z0mgrugbyreturns]

@MrGangaheaD88 Ditto for Pink Unicorns. What's your point?

[MrGangaheaD88]

@z0mgrugbyreturns be open to possibilities

[z0mgrugbyreturns]

@MrGangaheaD88 I am open to all possibilities, that's why I thoroughly researched the subject and came to the conclusion there's not 1 shred of evidence. Not even circumstantial evidence.

Those who believe without evidence are morons.

[lkinop]

Yeah it is, each metaphor is relative to the steel industry and the grim northern atmos but he has also linked it to contemporary living and thrown in some intraspsychic perspective. Very intelligent and provoking. A truly misunderstood genius.

[Lebowsk1]

Yeah, he tends to be stream-of-consciousness but yeah, the steel industry thing is there because that's where he was originally from.

[asboman123]

at 2:28 the music stops and u can hear piff gettin billed.

[kijo24444]

this song is crazy good, the lyrics are spot on

[shamploo82]

uninspired by the freak show i c ghost dance in the trail of my weed smoke!!

[grimeydesign]

this an anthem no one should did this tune

[figmentofthedeadbeat]

hands up, heads down.. swagger.. ill.

one of the best songs in the world for me.. peace

[illadelphuk]

just listen to the sample...doppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeee

[JamieBarnes11]

The sample is from Sound Chaser by Yes

[Lil2007Prof]

jehst..best UK rapper straight up, da complex lyrics are just out of dis world!

[vitalmc92]

this song gets better everytime i hear it, gives me shivers i love it

[NaturalThreat1]

Jehst = God.

[Lebowsk1]

Jehst gotta prove himself with newer material, but Falling Down album = God, no doubt about it.

"The land ravaged in the wake of this groundwar", just poetics you don't find anywhere else in rap.

[Lebowsk1]

Since writing my comment here I've been listening to the Menghi Bus Mixtape and I gotta say he's on fire there as well, amazing verses. Just a bummer that that was 3 years ago(?) and we're still waitin for Dragon of Ordinary Family.

But hey don't rush it Bill, better to get it right. Really can't wait for new jehst though.

[jeffdeancummins]

truth neglected like wounds that turned septic uk all day

[mesie2006]

This is something you play on a saturday afternoon with some mates whilst relaxing with a biftah.

[hibobslay]

its a head bopper, id stay if tyhey put it on, nice chill out tune

[tbsaint123]

Its grim up north!

[khalithistle]

this just might be my favorite uk hip hop song ever. the atmosphere of it is unbelievable. the last bit of the first verse in particular (from about "ghost town" line onwards) is especially beautiful

[alanmorrison1986]

but even parasites starve in this carcass of industry

[Scumbagheadpoo]

yo wait wait im one of the biggest hip hop head there is , and there aint nuttin wrong with oasis there pure your just a brainwashed culture created puppet

[Scumbagheadpoo]

best lyrasist in the world no doubt

[JungleDanger]

'Uninspired by the freak show, I see ghosts dance in the trail of my weed smoke.'

[JungleDanger]

can't touch Jehst...

[Ki09100]

untouchable.........

[pipstar1990]

big up usta blast this years a go still fukin heavy off 1 of jehst better albums

[Praying4tidalWaves]

this guys rhymes are so fuckin dope, every track,

was at a party and some bitch put on lil wayne, i just went outside and smoked a joint.

[adssm]

well done now everyone on utube thinks ur cool XD......no

[hibobslay]

lol, yh went to a party and some person put on oasis, so i went outside and had a fag, then went in and smashed everything up and raped his mum :D

[mesie2006]

I think if I went to a party and someone decided to put L.Wayne on i'd just leave too haha.

[digletniglet]

id probally leave if they put this on aswell not because it's not a bad song it's because it's not party music at all? i'd probally prefer lil wayne than this at a party

[tbsaint123]

lil wayne!? hahah

[mesie2006]

Yeah but i'd at least rock somthing ill at a party, like Busdriver, Forreign Beggars or even DnB Mc's.

[truespiritxx]

Like Biggie and Tupac thought, you gotta make the tunes brothers listen to but you also have to make the tunes that girls and radios will play.

Basically Jehst here didn't make a tune to rave to but one to chill and take in.

That's why Lil Wayne's songs are better for parties but his lyrics are whack.

[digletniglet]

wow ur dumb im not saying jehst is bad at all or a shit performer, im just replying to wat sum1 else sed saying its a party tune when its 1 for zoning

[digletniglet]

u can work it out from what i sed about party music and how this is not party music

[Xca1ber]

Jehst 4 prime minister

[4holy6]

joker

[stevieba]

the whole falling down cd is top notch !

[PlekzMan]

@stevieba

Couldn't agree more bro.

[JamieBarnes11]

I love that Yes sample. Relayer is a dope record.

[nafe123]

dr gee can suck a big donkey dick

[busterp08]

he says i see ghosts dance in the trail of my weed smoke..

[absolutelywankered]

jehst is so amazing, im so glad i found his music

[Rendwon]

i really enjoyed this song... upps.. Rendwon.

[MetalMaskMilitia]

I see ghosts thoughts in the trailsof my weed smoke.

this line gives me the fucking shivers man.

[idemt]

Yeah man that line is deep

[BoomBapReconnaissanc]

It's "see ghosts dance" I think. It's not a particularly deep or meaningful line if you compare it to countless others on this track.

[MetalMaskMilitia]

oh shit yeah it is dance.

[KaneVyrus]

fucking SICKKKK

[kkokhey]

jehst is sikkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

Big up dis bredda real

[shortstuff2k9]

song is dope

jehst is sik

fuck u if ya disagree hater

[stephenw94]

he is a lyrical beast!

i thought this was called black rain.

[JamieBarnes11]

Love that sample of the guitar with the volume pedal shit going on in it.

[Lebowsk1]

Probably the heaviest lyrics ever to escape da booth?! "calculated like the lies of a politician, gripping the slingshot I size up the opposition" ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[NELHAMS1234]

J3H5T is in my top 3 most favourite uk rappers ever!!!

Good Video

Great Tune

[yourmumisadick]

klashnekoff better be in your list

[flukebeatmusic]

klashnekoff fell off long time ago

[freddydeadleg]

Can u explain How?

[flukebeatmusic]

Just my opinion. He aint come close 2 Jankrowville since Parrowdice. I love them tunes and a fan of his first compilation. The other stuff dont grab me.

[freddydeadleg]

i AGree he hasnt cum close at all lets home his next release is back to his best aye!

[NELHAMS1234]

yer klash is in there

[necrorules]

RETURN OF THE DRIFTER.

[jnorth]

It's a real pity that his new stuff isn't as good, but he is one of the most consistent UK emcees in the scene

[83BarFly]

i defeinitely prefer his more melodic, poetic style, but thats just preference. the worst thing jehst could do as an artist is bring oout 10 albums that all sound the same. if he did that he'd just be another artist who's first album was the best, and set a standard that he could never live up to. plenty of artists fall under that catagory, the best ones however, re-invent and come out with something new everytime. jehst has done this with every album, thats just how damn go he is!

[ONEamWALKAH]

Shame more people over here in the US will never hear greatness like this.. They all wanna hear the new Wayne. eh.

"My tears pour as a torrential down pour"

"Snow flakes cover the ground in white carpets, Seasons of espionage as time passes, The lionhearted, Survival of the hardest artist, My open arms embrace darkness"

"You could see me as cynical, Trapped in my own gothic vision,

Encapsulating chaos in this composition"

Fukk. Dark lyrics. Amazing.

[hheerriinn]

nice to see some over seas love respect, jehst is too sick

[ADILPROUD]

hip hop dead in da u s a they aint got the hunger no more all want is 4 dare tunes to go platinum an b played in da clubs. they make thier tunes to b heard an not listen too

[ONEamWALKAH]

"They make their tunes to be heard and not to be listened to"

Couldn't have said it better myself. Jehst is pure fire.

[2ears4music]

true true

[cuntsgab]

jehst!! good stuff.

[selectark]

Wicked

[symer1]

one of my favourite songs ever.

[LazytownWins]

To me this is a Uk Hip Hop Classic.

[IYANDIY]

...still craving darkness and infamy, even parasites starve in this carcus of industry..

...my words are folk law, survive the cold war, NEW WORLD ORDER and so forth..

ohhh jehst early onto the 'NEW WORLD ORDER' agenda, like that ref

[pollypepperpot]

u can never say eminem is shit. like 50 cent is actually shit bt u cant say he is wen he has achieved his records bt at least eminem is a real lyricist chek his old shit out b4 he got known. jehst is personally for me better than eminem but a few years ago i would have said different and i still recognise that eminem is a beast. btw this is not my account i am typing on but shit has 2 be said. peace

[SplitGenetics]

lol your spelling makes me laugh :D

[steas]

tru dat

[lr2025]

Poetry an truth. REAL.X

[DjHood06]

infected by the forked tongue of a liar now my thoughts are the colour of fire, my nights spent bunning the kia, uninspired by the freak show, i see ghosts dance in the trail of my weed smoke!

[Piotrasdabadman91]

steaming clouds come from my firy breath, its the least twilight before silence of death

[omera10]

jehst is no jhon lennon wannabe hes a creation of his enviroment he reps that in all his track hes unique a breath of fresh air from the real hip hop side of life.. bless!

[Qwlagoobeirtch]

jehst is one of the dopest emcees

[symer1]

One of my favourite ever tunes..Jehst is too sick.

[PrinceKaspian]

true say hes a hard man to track down... the ynr webpage is rarely updated... just look around... many of them are with parkinsun so just check his page... did you no the famous 'jehst myspace'...

[PrinceKaspian]

if u mans are so on jehst, why are his gigs rarely packed out... ppl need to practice wt dey preach man

[Lebowsk1]

where the hell can we find info on them? looked on his myspace, no luck. only been to one myself.

[petewaite]

ive been to two jehst gigs, one was a no show, the other he was an hour late,

he's sick, but that sucks.

[darty124]

what a tune goin straight on my ipod
