I think this same (or a similar) sample/tune is used in two Nas songs: 'the message' (from 'It was Written' album) and also on 'not going back' (from 'Hip Hop is Dead' album).
there is no such thing as gangsta rap truly.. because its a genre white pl came up with it to label the rap dat shows wats going on in our black community.. tho gangsta rap is the most used form of hip hop in the mainstream community it is not the worst. n.w.a was gud it's just most rappers now arent real gangstas to begin with. guru wasnt underground by the way. he ws signed to a label and he was part of GANGSTARR
@CjayCwalk I think you dont know the meaning of rap. Hip hop is about freedom peace good times life struggles wisdom and knowledge Gangsta rap is justifting negative output with flashy beats and/or ghost writtin garbage. Yeah Pac, Biggs, L and Guru were gangsta and look where that got them. I cant denie that they made REAL shit but dont get that shit mixed with this hideous EM/50/WAYN trash that premots negative and degrading lifestyles. All in all this rap elavates the world to a better place..
@CjayCwalk their is no difference between rap. guru and the rest like hime are under ground hip hop. and em,50 and gay ass lil wane are just conciderd rap. em is a bit different from the rest he saw his flaws and new he couldent do much. it also depends on your point of view.
Gosh... how many yaers has it been since I listened to this. Maybe back in 07 or 08? Wow, used to get me into guerilla mode. Thank you, Asheru. Hope you are still active and inspiring young black minds.
"2 dislikes" who the hell would dislike this?! obviously they made a mistake because they "ment" to click the like button, couldn't see with a huge cock in there mouths! and don't "thumb up" my comment because that shits annoying!
This is the shit!!! The piano is amazing. Hip Hop has so much to offer and these guys are taking it in the right direction. I've had enough of the chauvinist, thug-life bull-shit. Intelligent hip hop has the potential to shape the world. Hip hop has gained popularity throughout the entire world as a tool for political and social reform. We need more artist like Asheru and the Blue Black of the Unspoken Heard.
@ scruffy dog, trust man I know it's ridicously gay sometimes but it's better this wAY, not enough people are on the level to appreciate nor do they want to, keep it underground baby/
ha. people dont know what hip hop is anymore. I searched "Soon Come - Asher" (I forget the "u" in Asheru and the page was full of only Asher Roth even though I searched Asheru's song. damn.
ASHERU defines the real version envy and soul of hip hop a hip hop legend if all wannabe rappers who TRY to rap but most cant the world of music would be redifined and better than it is 2day this shit here is true n real REAL HIP HOP

yo im like a music nomad i flot from style to style i had almost completely gave up on hip hop but i think i found some good stuff here. im really getting in to this but anyway i digress. can anyone give me some artist or songs or albums they can recommend to me please thats like this
I also move through the music spectrum and have always been a big fan of Asheru. Recently I've also stumbled across a Swedish hip hop group called Snook, awesome group, especially the song Mr. Cool. Aside from that some good hip hop artists are Mos Deff, Talib Kwalli, Dead PreZ
An act as innovative and as educational that it's only right to call it a CLASSIC! Mad respect to Asheru (as a matter of fact, Unspoken Heard as a group) and to all of his various contributions - both to the music scene and that of the outside - for he has contributed a great deal. As he says: "Life is my syllabus." His various works as an activist speak for themselves. He's as ambitious & a go-getter as he is a beast on the mic. That's two for the price of one. Can't get any better than this!
after listening to nothing but heavy metal these days, i have always thought low of main stream rappers talkin about the same shit. These guys not only have a sick beat to there songs but meaning behind there lyrics.
nah man, rap is da way dey sing, 50 cent is a true rapper cos he raps, an he raps quite well. but his music is not hiphop, dis is true hip hop, 50 is a rapper, bt a commercial one. dats my opinion aniways, peace
yeh, he got mad skills, but, he dont use dem 2 no ends, he promotes the destruction of his own poeple with his talent, if he was part of the revolution, i know he wud b a strong soldier. but i ges its jus another black man who been fooled by babylon. peace
Psh, I'm not a big Rap fan, their are exceptions, but this????.... This is amazing... Since I heard the BDs theme Asheru is the shit, I respect what he raps about... Hope this guy gets real big, would love to see that.
Dont ask why we arent at the the top for we will rise why the rest fall into there own unknown but the real shall stay firm and remain soldiers till our days have come and gone we are invisible to those who wish to not see us but we will remain holding on to the real like the ones befores us and so on
Damn good post man...classic ish right here. Asheru and Blu Black killed it on Soon Come. One album that I could listen to the whole way through. Dope ish right here.
