  • I miss the Blue Scholars and Common Market days. Not that Macklemore isn't that dude...I'm just saying those days were the shit.

  • @LEMON8ICE Yeah I'm in pain about Common Market too =[. Probably Sabzi's best beats in that duo in my opinion.

  • how did the manage to convince the metro bus system to let sabzi drive a bus? lol

  • Of all the Blue Scholar/Common Market masterpieces out there, this one takes the double espresso.

  • Just discovered this guy, and i'm in love, this is called rap! Props to this guy, thank you!

  • Comment removed

  • new fan n im stuck

  • I <3 Seattle its my second home, but nothing is better then Houston.:D

  • Is that Sabz as the bus driver haha

  • @YoungSpiceFiji Yup.

  • man blue scholars i've only discovered you 9 months ago

    you are one of my favorites of all time!!!

  • MC Geologic is ridiculously good at telling a story in such an enticing way

    It's a refreshing change from alot of other rap that is pretty scattered and has no plot

  • thumbs upp if your listening to this song in 2012!

  • @imFrezza No shit.

  • train to uni + joe metro song = god mood, good morning

  • terrible flow

  • @isubscribeeveryone2 eat a dick you piece of shit

  • Blue Scholars, Pearl Jam, Macklemore, Soundgarden.. Seattle's awesome

  • @CoreyL11 dont forget Art of Verse, check him out, an upcoming artist.

  • @meotoko77 Never heard of him but I'll definitely have to look him up.

  • sabzi is the bus driver lol

  • kinda sorta dope

  • Watch the Friday Harbor Music Video in the video responses! northwest movement and hip hop

  • such a moving song when on cannabis

  • Even though this is about riding mass transit in Seattle, as a New Yorker, it really resonates considering how much mass transit is part of our daily lives...Although, i think a NY version of this song would include crazier characters...

  • Nice Video!!!!!

  • these guys are racist lol

  • Shit, this song flows perfectly. Also, the video has so many likes that you can't even see the red dislike bar. #Swag. Keep up the good work!

  • its priceless

    i write this

    our lives are in crisis

    most talk but don't walk the path of the righteous

    despite this...

  • one of the dopest songs i have ever heard. I use to rap this song every day before class sophmore year in high school.

    An average day on the bus in downtown

    AWESOME

  • make my ass hole bleed

  • fuck me in the ass

  • I love you guys i would jack off to u guys

  • I got a boner, this is so nice

  • A$AP

  • One of my favorite hip hop songs ever

  • It never gets old seeing your home in a music video. Like every shot has a memory that i can connect to it. Seattle has that effect and blue scholars is my connection.

  • Ay you guys should check out the Fooligan Crew, they're from the PNW as well and filthy.

  • NW for Life!

  • Why does this just show the number of times ive listen to this song

  • 29 people missed the bus.

  • Vocalist's voice is boring as shit. also Blue Scholars is totally artificial listen Aesop Rock, Sage Francis if you want uncommercial and real music.

  • @immortaltendency dude blue scholars rap about the day today, sage francis and aesop are good but i mean there different artists aesops political and complex it takes a few listens to get it sage francis has a a few good songs im not always feelin it but hes pretty good but once again not theday today the blue scholars are a good rapgroup you wanna talk about a boring voice have you heard aesop monotone his voice is the same in everysong

  • @hcbiukhciuweewbchiew Dude. Aesop and Sage are fucking beasts of the hip-hop scene. Not hating on Blue Scholars - this is the first time I've heard them and they sound ILL! But Sage (despite having shitty production sometimes) has to be one of the top 3 lyricists ever. Tonedeff and Aesop (for me) are the other two.

  • @immortaltendency So your opinion makes it artificial and commercial? No.... no it doesn't. Stop being a fucking hipster and stop shittin on shit that ain't shittin on shit. Now fuck off.

  • @mkmoloch You dumb whore i did never find this song or this band commercial, Blue Scholars are pretty artificial in my opinion and you can not categorize humans due to their opinions so stop being a damn internet guy and shut up.

  • @immortaltendency God damn, calm down. You didn't directly say that they are commerical but you said "Blue Scholars is totally artificial listen Aesop Rock, Sage Francis if you want uncommercial and real music.". You did imply that this was commercial. And how can I not catergorize people on opinions? That is what opinion are ALL about. It's pretty easy to judge you as being a hipster if you're talking shit about something just for being a tad bit more commercial.

  • @mkmoloch HAHAHAHAHA you're funny you internet tough guy, actually i was emphasis that suggesting ''both uncommercial and real music'' due to i find Blue Scholars artifical and uncommercial, now get lost with your misunderstandings dumb.

  • @immortaltendency you're an idiot

    

  • @yeeeahboyeee123 You're an idiot i was wait such an idiocy, you can not set people idiot due to their theses, out and turn off the computer.

  • There should be an annual Seattle day with this song blasting on every radio station and public speaker.

  • If only Common Market was still alive today...

  • seeing them tonight in Ann Arbor MI.....who's comin with me

  • damn... just... damn. wow. awesome.

  • Fuck the coffee this is Seattles best

  • @RudeboyUT Repeat of that old top comment.

  • @RudeboyUT I like them, but I think macklemore is Seattle's best

  • What is Seattle doing lol?! Loving all the stuff coming out, chill beats, great lyrics and Blue Scholars flair. Awesome!

  • If you love the Seattle sound, check out This Shit by Sol.

  • Blue Scholars are incredible, but respect to Zia Mohajerjasbi, he is a genius when it comes to the videos

  • i was fine with just listening to the beat

  • Love this track! "...walkin closer to my final destination of death..." ...most talk but won't walk the path of the righteous... " Mad true.

  • these guys came to my school last year

    definately the best live preformance of my life

    god i love living in seattle :D

  • Blue scholars and macklemore? damn keep it up Seattle

  • @soccerpaint7777 and Common Market !

  • @soccerpaint7777 and Common Market !

  • @fingerslamen

    there aint no common market no more or am i mistaken? heard they r going solo now what is a fuckin shame!

  • @soccerpaint7777 Blue Scholars, RA Scion, AND Macklemore! Seattle hip hop at its best.

  • @soccerpaint7777

    dont forget the physics

  • @soccerpaint7777 don't forget: Knowmads, Language Arts, and Common Market!!

  • @soccerpaint7777 Can't forget Common Market!

  • @soccerpaint7777 and lets not forget RA Scion!

  • @soccerpaint7777 dont forget Grieves,Grynch, and a few others

  • hip hop isnt dead. its just malnourished and under fed

  • @Dewight007 What a line.

  • why does this have 28 dislikes.. faggots wouldnt know good hip-hop if it hit them in the face!

  • Comment removed

  • thiz is real music...

  • Who's watching this on Friday 7th October 2011?

  • @kyletranter11 October 13 2011 in Santa cruz!!

  • never heard someone capture the american city so perfectly

  • I don't ever really comment on videos, but I feel this may be one of the greatest rap songs of all time. It takes alot of skill to make a song that has so much meaning behind the lyrics while just writing about the sights and people you see on the public bus.

  • will be going to see this live next week. stoked.

  • The guy with the its beef T is in The Town by Macklemore

  • Its been 2 years, and in my freetime i mainly surf the internet for more underground songs, yet this song is still my favorite song.

  • Mainstream rap isn't music. Music is art. Art is supposed to move you, to make you feel something right? I think the Blue Scholars figured that out.

  • marinating in a pair of half broken headphones

    right now

  • whenever i hear this i literally stop what im doing to enjoy it.

  • throwback

    

  • i noticed that geo says a lot of things that nas came up with in illmatic. like sleep be the cousin of death and its like that yall. is nas like one of geo's inspirations?

  • @GotPurp9035 yea

  • I hop the 48 almost every day!

  • IM A KID FROM SEATTLE WITH DOPE MUSIC! I CANT AFFORD TO BE IGNORED! CHECK MY CHANNEL

  • yeah when i move out ill probably have to move to seattle

  • they should be well known by now... they are amazing...

  • 1:37 --- I'm a pale folk lol

    Thumbs up if you're a pale folk and weren't offended :D

    Words are words - that's all, i think we all need to realise this.. :)

  • all these cats set trippin bring 95 back " 

  • i was bout to throw my laptop after looking at the views in only 4 years! People make dumbass songs and get more in a week! Fuck who every runs the music on the radio

  • @Pistonsfanforlife09 the reason for this is prolly cause majority of people like songs with a catchy beat to sing along with and songs that usally involve sex, drinking and party'n. Why? IDK :(

  • Seatlle here i come

    man i wish i lived there

  • The 26 ppl that hit the thumbs down can go fuck themselves and listen to Lil' Wayne, or someone else equally as gay!

  • @marcandremck33 While I agree that those people don't know shit, calling music like Lil' Wayne gay doesn't help the cause at all. While I love hip-hop culture, there is too much homophobia in it. I hate to be preachy, but try not to use the word "gay" instead of stupid or wack or some other shit. Same with the word faggot. Saying those promotes hate. I can tell from your comment that you're an intelligent person, and whether or not you agree with this opinion, I hope you can respect it. Peace

  • @remzrider107 Dude, don't be making gay comment like this, aight? j/k lol

  • @remzrider107 Lil Wayne is a stupid wack hipster?

  • @marcandremck33 What's gay about Lil wayne? I think his "music" is shit, but i'm pretty sure he isn't homosexual.

  • Honestly how can u not like this song. Lyrics just blow my mind!

  • yo this song really gets to me. i mean like i went to flushing in new york for a bio class and i would take the train and like this song really gets to me cuz i would do like everything he say. i would nod at the people who where the same race as me and they would nod at me. i made some awesome friends. met a lot of Chinese people talking in their language.dam.. this song really mmake me miss flushing but i still love blue scholars. have all of your songs on my iPod, these guys keep it real

  • These guys are the real deal. When more MCs come with content that has weight and makes a positive impact start to follow Blue Scholars example, then we can be just alittle more hopeful about our uncertain future. BIG UPS SEATTLE!!!

  • Can't wait to go down 3rd avenue blastin this song

    #SeattleLove

  • Love this, It's beautiful :)

  • Geo is the Barry White of hiphop

  • hes got a similar flow of Masta Ace , respect to both muscians

    

  • Artists like this are the reason im proud to be from seattle. keep up this beautiful flow, keep up the unyielding beat.

  • no one can touch Geo's flow...

  • WHen is Duckdown gonna let them release their first album? It's been 2 years!!!

  • Dear Seattle,

    I'm hella happy that more and more artist are coming up that are lyrical. I'm a little jealous that LA has the same tone deaf people that care about how much they spend in a day and decide to make it a song about it..

  • Did the bus stop at Macklemore's - The Town clip? I recognize the same passengers wearing the same clothes in both clips :P

  • I fcking love blue scholars... two dudes that know whats up....

  • God 'The Killing' really did make it look dark and dull when i was there it was sunny as Fuck!

    Seattl is my 2nd home :D Love it

  • seattles on top of the world

  • Macklemore and Blue Scholars holding it down for Seattle...and I'm from Boston (if you couldn't tell by my account name)

  • if this dude didnt make it big, there's just no chance, he puts thought into his lyrics

  • Seattle!

  • Geo has a really good voice.

  • Seattle is awesome mackelmore and blue scholars best ever im happy im from Everett

  • Soulful beats and old school rhymes... heaven

  • Hip-hop transcends all regional boundaries when it is this real

  • @golflawdog 'real' is such an empty, misused word, but I know what you mean and totally agree.

  • Makes me want to live there.. My favorite track.. Know every word. 

  • this video needs to be reshot, gotta see seattle in 1080p. 360p doesn't do the town justice

  • i have to say something----bc this songs tittled joe metro. sincerly, angryjo

  • Kentucky doesn't have this funky shit. I dig visiting my uncle from Seattle though. It's a beautiful city

  • this is real rap. good to hear someone with mad flow, and not talkin about bitches and money.

    all love from Vegas.

  • put it down for seattle

  • most chill song ive ever heard thumbs up if you agree :)

  • I'm trying to get this to 1 million view by myself! :D

  • blue scholars and common market are what hip-hop should be. If only other people would open up their ears.

  • @bokiloki777 dont forget macklemore.

  • @IDxProductions how could i forget...........

  • @bokiloki777 Yeah, but don't forget all the small-time, local artists. For example, here in Michigan, we have a LOT of really dope inspirational hip-hop, it just doesn't get out there. I'm not arguing, I just think all the local artists who don't care about making it big and are just doing it for the love of MC'ing deserve recognition. Even if it is a simple comment on the music video for the dopest hip-hop group in the northwest.

  • you want to move here because you dont live here... its rainy and cloudy and cold everyday.
