Shabazz Palaces - An Echo From The Hosts That Profess Infinitum (not the video)

[grimblegrumble1337]

I feel like every time this song plays, someone is being sacrificed

[cresplove]

SEE U IN ITALY , NEXT WEEK!! :D PEACE!! :D

[beezerboy94]

I absolutely hate rap. I love this song.

[spartan3924]

i got here from a video showing an old fighting game where the player was jackie chan and kept low kicking how this is related in any way is beyond me

[jvilela123]

thom

[matthewjamal]

shots at all you soft niggas, huh!

[arteffectmusic]

so fuckin sick, glad my uncle showed me this

[DJMaxwellRelishHand]

It's like somebody rhyming over a beat similar to Dinosaur Holocaust's...

[titohn7]

TY! I'm hooked on this!

[sirklondike303]

thank god for the underground

[holocactus]

@sirklondike303 Amen!

[MOVIEmusicFIEND90]

I love being me, listening to everything and keeping an open mind toward everything. Thats how i got here, with an open mind for music.

[Az1Promo]

Awesome!!!

[TwentySeven1337]

This is great, I wouldn't have known about this if it weren't for Anthony Fantano.

[lloplop]

@TwentySeven1337 thats sad. sad I even know his name. the clueless critic for the clueless masses...

[TwentySeven1337]

@lloplop Someone's trying too hard. I, for one, tend to agree with most of his opinions so I follow his videos. So you can just sod off.

[MonsieurRondu]

@lloplop your cynicism leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

[ryaltwigs]

fav for 2011!

[toolowkey91]

On that shroom trip tip

[epicshitzz22]

i eat kids.

[Mell0xmatt]

best weird shit.

[ritavegan]

The best trip hop Ive ever heard.

[SicktistiK]

@ritavegan This is not trip-hop, at all. Trip-hop is a completely different genre. This is still hip-hop, although it is trippy. Not my cup of tea though, unlike trip-hop.

[ritavegan]

@SicktistiK Ok.

[echobears]

that was unbelievable

[JonAd1990]

Got to give love to Digable Planets, wish they stuck with Butterfly.

Great album

[Pozos88]

The beats amazing

[brecker12]

my stomach tightens, my eyes widen, my desire to live emerges again!

[bebopdad]

Should have been Digable Planets, but I guess they would be holding butterfly down!

[loomer5089]

has got some trip-hop/witch house elements in it. good shit

[eachneverydaynosleep]

some crazy shit gonna get around n listen to it now..

[Koopgeminikiller]

BEST HIPHOP OF 2011 @))! In my opinion its the best hiphop I've heard in at least 7 years. I Love this shit, Shabazz revived hiphop for me!!

[gregasterisk]

best hiphop of 2011

[magnifiedvibes]

Dope.An instrumental version should be posted! magnifiedvibes.tumblr.com

[edwardmartian]

Butterfly is so ahead of his time, this sounds like it was made in 3011

[MegaAndrewilson]

All praises to Allah for laying down a slice of paradise through Ish

[ListenToTheDanielle]

Song Of The Day.

[tawnyfawn]

whatever. this is fkn awesome.

[grandlebowski]

Being deaf would really suck right now

[RobertLambton1]

Shabazz Palaces has ruined music for me :( ... I can't listen to anything else because it pales in comparison!!!!!! :D

[mistersalty510]

Big props to Sub Pop for having the balls to to take a chance on this shit. I'ma go cop it on CD this weekend like a good ole days, and then listen to it with some blunts and beers with my friends in a backyard like the good ole days. Viva la revolucion!

[DrROFLcopter1]

This beat is fucking scary......in the best possible way.

[CRAIGSLISTRAPIST]

WTF is wrong with fucking wanna be non-conformist try hard fucks? I mean - I understand not wanting to listen to Weezy all day, but gravitating to god awful crap like this just makes you look foolish.

[speaker00001]

@CRAIGSLISTRAPIST HAAHAA your the fool. You call your self craigslistrapist and you go out of your way to hate on people. Look in the mirror. You go around calling other people "try-hard" yet your the one that is obviously trying hard. And by the way I listen to lil wayne tracks and shabazz tracks. Im a fan of good music and can appreciate originality- no matter how popular the artist is.

[igethardoffmusic]

@CRAIGSLISTRAPIST YOU'RE A COW WHORE

[Metalgazer]

Tripped out and melodic... best thing I've heard since Gonjasufi.

[oldaverich]

Wait a minute...no strippers? Thought that was a requirement. This is great music and makes me wanna go find my digable cd's... It's like Butterfly found himself in a Thom Yorke nightmare.

[redfirebluecipher]

True Hip Hop Ish! Yeah Yeah, Oh Yeah! See-Cipher- Divine.. Blue

[olehh1]

this is what hip hop needs

[AlanAnthonyDoyle]

*****

[MrShanechon]

fusion of jp zen and rap, can i say that. novel and creative

[amateurstanding]

Well Sub Pop got some of their credibility back...

[BethlehemFilmakers]

The only song on the Internet that doesn't deserve dislikes from anyone.

[myklgee]

new album is on some ish! no pun intended...can't stop listening to it. super hypnotic.original yet tasteful.

[cramham]

how do i disable the reply button? iv'e got things to do today!

[MyEggIsBoiled]

A little bit similar to Gonjasufi, according to my ears.

[earthslayer666]

@MyEggIsBoiled

lyrics & vibe are totally separate; . . . flow is most def different...

[MyEggIsBoiled]

@earthslayer666 That's the magic of opinion. No matter what you say we're both right.

[xsquaredthemusician]

so this is like my new favorite rap. I used to rly only like tyler the creator for his over the top evilness and stuff but this is like animal collective but also hiphop. The music is just as important as the message.

[nem700]

@xsquaredthemusician

tyler is cookie cutter. You need to get on jus allah if you want evil. and kool keith and mf grimm too. tyler aint about nothing.

[Discreet17712]

@kasztan "Who do you think you are?"....don't bother..."swags ya brand so go open ya can" or should i say obey your thirst as drake does so you could understand...lol

[PassTheMusik]

I cant stop fuckin listening to this song, the lyrics are fuckin amazing and the beat is too dope.

[earthslayer666]

@PassTheMusik

too dope for real!!

[IdeasFecales]

Dope

[matthewjamal]

wow :) 

[kasztan110]

it's pointless, freaky (in negative way) i don't get it.

[janalyn629]

loooove this

[nehemauitka]

i cannot get enough of this man and his music!!!

[yolo1998]

oh yes.

[HappyFamilyPlan]

Ish from Digable Planets

[Galenskates]

Who produced this?

[Outerspacehaze]

this is dope

[musicfuelsmysoul]

I CAN'T F+CKING WAIT FOR THE ALBUM TO COME OUT, IT'S GOING TO BE SICK.

[killingmoon3]

next level shit

[spdstr588]

kids screaming and crying is the beat?

[fwahstatus]

swag

[denverwarner]

"it's Africa at work"

[777ALLAH]

ALLAHU AKBAR

[ChowHimself]

@777ALLAH TAKBIR

[davedanksful]

jaw clinched, head nodding, my kids love this shit

[wolvesnrp]

@slzzzp using "odd" samples isn't "pushing the envelope" dingus. people have been making shit like this for decades

[ryanlovelock]

you think sampling is the only thing that marks this out? n when did i even say that?

so show me this stuff. and try not to be a condescending prick to people you dont even know.

[wolvesnrp]

@ryanlovelock what does my not knowing you have anything to do with your being stupid?

[slzzzp]

@wolvesnrp

because it says more about you and your arrogance in making assumptions about people than it does about me. anyway if thats how you want to roll. still waiting on some names, always lookin for new sounds

[pfive]

@wolvesnrp Gonna need a citation on that

[DeaflyBlind]

@wolvesnrp no they havent

[iwazused]

@wolvesnrp True, but his flow is unique. As far as modern day hip-hop goes, this is very different from the norm. 

[marklar47]

butterfly >>>

[thedude9099]

what genre is this?

[Chocolatmenthe]

@thedude9099 : Hip-hop with some hint of "Chopped and Screwed".

[APPLIEDARTSFLA]

LETS GET WEIRD!

[aaddaaMKrriissttoo]

More Shabazz... less predictable hiphop.

[facade3]

@aaddaaMKrriissttoo Right?!

[samich666]

@aaddaaMKrriissttoo amen



[wowdaddy3]

hmm? nope it does nothing for me. Pass

[showimprovement]

kinda reminds me of anti pop consortium

[AcshIttable]

sounds like a worse version of Jam On It by Necleus

[0709ae]

@AcshIttable lol wtf, your ears aren't working, this sounds nothing like jam on it. Can't handle that next level shit fool!

[johnnygogo]

ubercool!

[lexissopro]

awesome beat

[Jasonisabeast]

this is fucking BADASS!



[KINZOisHERE]

keeping and open mind. way to go SUBPOP!!!!

[ChowHimself]

Good to know, Sub Pop.

[rlwnek]

just fucking awesome

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

This sort of music scares me. I love it but when I start to just listen to it and imagine the picture in the video I get kinda freaked.

[beezerboy94]

woah, dub hop with kalimbas and frightening ambient noise! This is truly unique!

[joshg253]

Reminds me of Kool Keith.

[CoPezz]

its more like dub pop.... on schizophrenia

[CoPezz]

its more like dub pop

[K1dCharlemagne]

not really consistent with the modern-day sub pop sound... and that's a compliment.

[Samodrei]

not really liking this. i did however enjoy Of Light and the Self-titled album.

[xtinct2]

no no
