El-P - Stepfather Factory

[oAzREZNoR]

what's all this capitalism talk? this is El getting back at the stepfather that nearly killed his mom.

[djkickinit]

Back when EL-P was cool.... his new shit is a bunch of garbage in my opinion....

[nw82]

capitalism is based on infinite growth, yet we live on a finite rock. it has reached its limits.

[MausTanker]

capitalism, communism, both fail. money is an outdated idea we hold on to. The only true answer, is a resource based economy, since money of any kind creates the sense of false scarcity. In other news. I think this song is totally about Bender from Futurama. hahaha

[barnumeffect5]

@MausTanker bender man of the house? no way. robot of the house? yeah.  and the cheapest way to keep him running IS with booze.

[ealbeal]

Capitlism is about to be engulfed in it's own self.

[fuk44]

trying to make ppl get this guy and aesop rocks lyrics is impossible without time

[zevluvfresh]

why the hell would that Lady Gaga and Rhianna trash be advertised with this?

[MrFuckingElectro]

fuck capitalists!

[killboi207]

@MrFuckingElectro  Fuck you sir. Capitalism created the computer, countless medicines, the lightbulb...... Need I go on?

U sound like a lazy commy pinko shitmonger.

[punkyhiphopdood]

@killboi207 the problem with capitalism when it comes to medicine is and always will be that the money is in the treatment rather than the cure. You cure a disease and you lose billions of dollars. Great things have come from Capitalism, but the system is flawed.

[killboi207]

@killboi207 History shows it to be the least corrupt form of government ever, but who learns history anymore.

[intoxsik]

@MrFuckingElectro I'm sorry, but any intelligent human being knows that at this moment, there is no successful alternative to capitalism. I'm not talking pure capitalism, that's a flawed system. I'm saying that capitalism with limits is currently the best option we have.

[shyko95]

@intoxsik We have all the supplies we need, take a look at The Venus Project, and watch the Zietgeist films.

[CallardSince93]

Sort'a reminds me of Aesop Rock?

[ZoeMyJesus]

@CallardSince93 I'll bite your face and make a sandwich.

[SilyiButton]

@CallardSince93

well El-P and Aesop are good buddies.

[HipHopiz4Real]

@CallardSince93

they are also both on Definitive Jux Records. Good artists over there

[killboi207]

Women are shit parents too, casie anthony ftw.

[MrUndeniable420]

[XxbrandeathxX]

Alien Rap :)

[barstuard]

is the voice at the end a sample from 2001 a space oddysey, HAL the computer?

fucking great use of it.

respect to el-p, a man keeping it real with vision in a dark world.

[cedens0001]

Sorry Kaya!!! I tried. However, your mom happens to be a whore; sooooooo... Hopefully, the next model will stick around longer.

[Unkn0wnS0urc9]

Future Will Look Like This If We Have No Feeling-Love Anymore ....

[inphadel]

at the worlds' fair, but is it really?

[CrashFantastic]

one of the most amazing songs ever written!!!

The bleak-o-meter goes up to eleven.

[DonCheto323]

I Fkkn Miss 1999-2003 ! Best Years Ever

[TheShakiebreaks]

hip hop isnt dead. its just living in the hearts of real music fans.love to america from the u.k.......................fuck the government XXXXXXXXX

[cosmicaptain]

no flow

[AEgamesFtw]

@cosmicaptain You have no idea what you're talking about. The flow on this is awesome and unique.

[SPRVLN1]

@cosmicaptain el-p has a ill flow, this song in particular is delivered more as a dialogue

[cezehiphop]

one of the most amazing tracks of 2002

[JOwENSelektah]

this tune marked part of my life............

[SybillaMenninger176]

Dnload the audio from this track at searchripgrab doht cohm.

[0ct0parr0t]

thats the coolist thing ive ever seen for so maany reasons

[theBIGGESTmidgetz]

his voice sounds like tech n9ne !!! i was trying to figure out through so many of his songs who he most sounds like... and thats who

[IncredibleStan]

@theBIGGESTmidgetz tech n9ne? really.......nah

[trademark310]

You know a song is hella deep when you never had a stepfather who beat you but you can 100% feel everything El-P is relaying.

[angridawg]

"Why are you making me hurt you? I love you." that is fucking chilling beyond belief

[barstuard]

@angridawg

for real. if it is from space oddysey, that's why, if you ain't seen it - watch it - there's a scene near the end with the computer that's just fuckin insane along them dimensions. i won't get in to specifics in case some haven't seen it but highly reccomend you watch it if you haven't.

if you go in with an open mind and patience it will blow you open.

[DjhiGhTec8o8]

7 people myst be deaf because i see 7 dislike votes

[skigerald]

"physical aggression towards you and your loved ones fleshy surfaces"

[southpawdj]

7 people dont have a clue!

[ChiVic64]

My favorite song from Fantastic Damage

[sirsquiggly]

these commercials are getting out of hand.

[CYBERxBULLY]

el p is a genious

[iluvfReSH]

Falling in love with El-P's music all over again. Hadn't listened to FanDam and Funcrusher Plus in a while...

Amazing shit.

[DopeSoundCity]

El-P got da sickest shit always. Big up to Def Jux

[FluffanutterSandwich]

51,000

[minameise]

Love this song, and old favorite.

[TheGaffattack]

all i can say its brilliant ! hip hop is evolving again !

[inphadel]

why are you making me hurt you? I love you.

[spex0the0juggalo]

This song... It's the kind that drives into my chest it's so fucking good!

Oh i bought the el-p FanDam albums just now.

How have i never listened to this before - those years wasted...

[fNiLoss]

0:57 EL-P!!!

[bcrem82]

more filthy than eating peanuts from under the fridge

[blazey234]

i like this kind of flow. try search Audio88. they do it kinda the same in german.

[fuckbradscottfabian6]

this is really good. unfortunate chorus though

[crudomundo]

I'm not fatherless yet, but if I was this would be my theme song.

[Sagefrakrobatik]

The other day I was listening to William Bennet connecting the recent allegations of black polticians being corrupt with the lack of fathers in black community. He should have lisened to this song.

[coldrockdaspot]

This might well be my fave El-P track of all time.

[spellx25]

Omfg...stfu with ur funny comments...its not funny...this music is made for a reason...the last thing EL-P had in mind is to make u laugh...he is an artist a damn good one..and he sees whats wrong with this world...and hes telin u about it through his work...so if ur so immature that u cant understand what its about dont comment at all

[Marcko98]

@spellx25 That's why he put slight sarcasm and subtle jokes in it. El-p Does incorporate a little humor in his videos. Soo jump off your High place ya uppity mutherf**k!

[Marcko98]

@spellx25 *Side-note* As minor a fact the one of the best ways to really convey info is through humor, that's why you can learn more about "IMPORTANT CURRENT EVENTS" in one episode of The Daily-show, or Bill Maher than a Full week of watching the regular news.

[thoraxtofu]

@spellx25 laughters not theres so we can cope with puppies and kittens. it helps us deal with stuff like this so i think its natural for the video to have a dark comedic element.

[Caconymic]

THE LATEST IN TECHNOLOGY

[cityhypocrite]

It's bender from Futurama!

[MatuArt]

shock doctrine

[SamuraiBlade2247]

this is ill...this is some true hiphop..but one question, does anyone know the meaning of this song? cuz i feel like this has a deeper meaning than it seems to have but i cant exactly figure on what it is....

[thatruggedrebel]

@SamuraiBlade2247 are you looking too deep into it, or not deep enough?

[bioLogickk]

@SamuraiBlade2247 In my opinion, this song is a statement on the technological boom, and the effects its had on society and on familial dynamics. Technology is replacing real relationships, etc etc

[Sagefrakrobatik]

@SamuraiBlade2247 "Far beyond a mere concept jam, El-P projects his anger about his abusive drunken stepfather as a world in which "robotic relatives" are sold to complete families basically for the sake of completing them"

This is what Noxie said from Rap Reviews.

[incantar]

@SamuraiBlade2247 Its about the coldness of technology, irresponsible corporations, domestic abuse, substance abuse, bad childhoods, malaise, numbness, and thoughts of suicide. Plus robot stepfathers. It's structured as an ironic sales pitch by the CEO of a robot manufacturer.

[SniperAKABanks]

@SamuraiBlade2247 technology is deleting all relations..

[astumpe80]

@SniperAKABanks what do you mean? we're relating right now.....via technology.........

[Maziyar]

el-p and aesop rock tear shit up. el-p has been around since 93 and aes since 97.

see these dudes live.

[BCK1970]

"...And in a few unsubstantiated clinical trials this condition

has led to simulated feelings of resentment and worthlessness

Manifested in the highly unlikely but still possible act

of physical aggression towards you and your loved ones fleshy surfaces

Remember, no cash returns

Only credits towards future purchases"

Epic.

[alfrr8]

el-profeta :)

[scam513]

El-P is so good, ahead of his time. Co Flow was sick too!!

[snipercheez]

Man, I'm an Idiot! I've been sweatin' Cann. O for the longest time and never even bothered to listen to EL-P. His shit is so Deep!

Le

[zhn0k]

@whydoesthismattr that's nice but i expected much more from the el-p that was with company flow.
