Madvillain - Shadows of Tomorrow

[seanster321]

"who chopped down the cherry tree" chinese voice in the beginning

[FuckingDracula]

"Today is the shadow of tomorrow. Today is present future of yesterday. Yesterday is the shadow of today. The darkness of the past is yesterday."

Those lyrics are freaking epic.

[thatunit995]

these lyrics are so fucking AWESOME

[mynameisnotalfredo]

There need to be more Sun Ra homages in hip hop.

Today !

Thank you for sharing

John

[MrBudSmail]

what does the little voice say at the beginning?

[Initialrt]

what part are sun ra on this track? honest question.

[DenisFreeman2]

Fletcher is said to be Doom trolling on his own videos, possibly to get u to leave comments saying how good Doom is. or maybe hes just a committed troll with no life, who knows.

[Datathief100]

Flava Flav on helium......

[designeranoraks]

Everybody complaining bout hip hop being dead, not while this shit and these guys exist..... this is dope!

[bigjc87]

The MF Doom track Strange Ways would go great with this video

[paulg1972og]

Sun RA, True Shit! Kate Hampson is a fucking Whore!!!!!!!!!!

[mfMsher0ne]

MF DOOM is Jason Bateman in disguise

[MelCac]

@mfMsher0ne Jason Bateman is MF DOOM in disguise

[mfMsher0ne]

@MelCac MF DOOM is a figment of Salad Fingers' delusion...

[FreestyleFletcher]

@MaCOBBreCountyENT you're probably just gonna have to come kill me. that's what it's come to.

[TheSpaceJanitor]

good job with the video

[cky12qxz]

deepest lyrics ever

[335kd]

SUN RA

[AmSyndicate]

if you like doom then you should get a lot of stones throw. lootpack.

[ixxpanduhxxi]

tripped out

[TheYerp26]

I sound like an idiot? People on every single Mf doom song talk mad shit about you. You must be really desperate for attention. Get a life you fucking infantile douchebag.

[dfuzz1114]

sun ra sun ra lord quas

[ngeezy2288]

Just started listening to doom..wat are some other artists with good flow and meaningful lyrics

[miggs80]

@ngeezy2288 Their's a dude named Blu and a group named Cyne. Both are amazing. Cyne is probably my favorite stuff out. I mainly listen to early 90's hip hop so the modern day lyrical content has to be pretty dope for me to feel it. Check them out, I think you'll enjoy both both of the names I provided.

[miggs80]

@ngeezy2288 I meant to say Blu and Exile (not just Blu by itself). Also check out "Crush on You" by Cise Star. Cise Star is one of the members of Cyne that I mentioned in my last reply. If you like " Crush On You" then you'll probably like most of their stuff. They've got beautiful beats bro and sick lyrics.

[ArbyWanKenobi]

@ngeezy2288 One Be Lo, Binary Star, Common Market, Blue Scholars, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Cannibal Ox, Blu, Fashawn, Elzhi, MF Grimm, Asheru, Lone Catalysts, Superiority Complex, Classified, Shad, ATMOSPHERE, Nujabes.

[TheCookyface]

@ngeezy2288 murs,eyedea,common sense,atmosphere,flying lotus this dude makes some sick beats listen to massage situation,a tribe called quest and after you have listened to almost all of the eyedea songs then listen to his band face candy tell me what you think

[335kd]

@ngeezy2288 jay electronica.

[musiclover01ization]

[EternityOfYesterday]

All time fav song ever. I hope this plays at my funeral.

I played this for my peeps at school and got a ton of people into doom and lib.

the way it should be.

[turdmaflurd]

this song is so fucking sick

[RPKAK47]

谁砍到了樱桃树？

[lyricsfromsweden]

@RPKAK47 that's right

[cky12qxz]

I thought Ra had a falcon head lol

[HeppiHeppo]

i'm not a fan of hip hop music, but i couldn't find a bad song by this dude. he is truly awesome

[fabioz91]

man...this tripsmy nuts!

[adrock4]

This track has literally nothing to do with DOOM, but hey, FreestyleFletcher STILL manages to pop up!

[ilsekotch]

reads like 'thus spoke zarathustra'

[NedsMissingTeeth]

This video is quite possibly racist.

Happy new year folks.

[TheWeedBrothers]

2011

[AirrumSirhc]

Flying Lotus?

[agilNRW]

@freestylefletcher i think you dont understand good music

[FletcherTheSkidMark]

@FreestyleFletcher Oh so last year you were mixing science with psychology, this year you are just all about hate. when can we hear those science/psychology raps?

[lyricsfromsweden]

@FletcherTheSkidMark you call urself cool? you're sitting on youtube and hating on every doom song, pardon me but last time i checked that was lame as fuck

[FreestyleFletcher]

come on. y'all really think this is a good track? doom fucking sucks. he is washed up and sloppy as shit on the mic.

[FletcherTheSkidMark]

@FreestyleFletcher yo man have you ever thought of mixing science with a little bit of psychology in ur raps?

[FreestyleFletcher]

@FletcherTheSkidMark that was last year. i really needa update. now adays I stay stuck on HATE mode. Next year will probably be a completely different subject.

[basementrat]

@FreestyleFletcher EVERY YEAR UR STUCK IN DICKSUCKING MODE!!!!!!

[wangchung311]

@basementrat haha. epic. fagstyle is definitely the emperor of swallowing cocks.

[slugsupinbetween]

@FreestyleFletcher doom isnt even on this track dumb fuck.

[victornun147]

@slugsupinbetween dayyyumm, either YOU'RE dumb, or you're splitting hairs... quasimoto is dooms alter-ego. anyways, sweet song :)

[slugsupinbetween]

@victornun147 im saying doom wasnt the vocals. obviously it's mf dooms beat. nice try with the phrase "splitting hairs" but you used it incorrectly..

[Wolfsrain90]

@victornun147 ?

Quas isn't Doom's alter ego--he's Madlib's.

[blunted333]

@victornun147 mf doom + quasimoto aren't the same person, retard...

[spicneo]

@slugsupinbetween a drawing is lol

[WillyDaVieh]

@slugsupinbetween he is, he did the beat with madlib

[MrTheonlyrealone]

@slugsupinbetween yo dumb ass madvillain is a group consisting of mf doom and madlib and so yeah he is on the track he is on the second verse now dont you look dumb

[NABRstudios]

@MrTheonlyrealone Please don't act like you know what you are talking about... MF Doom did not rap on this track... the beat was produced by madlib, the first verse is Quasimoto, and the second verse is Madlib again... so this track was basically made by Madlib... Please dont argue with me. you. are. wrong.

[IamMrBeechum]

i love DOOM no doubt but i cant stand this song... to me theyre just statin the obvious

[FreestyleFletcher]

this shit is fuckin wak. listen to some real hip hop.  DOOM sucks

[17darkmaster1]

@FreestyleFletcher to you what is real hip hop.Because i know real hip hop it does'nt have to be mf doom but i know

[FreestyleFletcher]

@17darkmaster1 fuckin dudes with some spit. Dusty Grin, K-Rino, Immortal Tech, KAST, GZA, Canibus, Killah Priest, Muggzy Flowz, Fill Ney the Flyest Guy, Ghost, The Grouch, Slug, Aesop Rock, Kool Keith..... dudes with somethin to say.

[LexusFordsSA]

@FreestyleFletcher

Get a life and stop leaving MF DOOM hate messages on his videos. And what do you mean "dudes with somethin to say"? You mean to be a good hip-hop artist you need to have a collection of songs that talk about wars, the poor and other depressive shit no one really cares about? Go listen to Strange Ways by MF DOOM.

I actually can't blame you that much; you live in the Northern Mariana Islands - completely disconnected from reality.

[FreestyleFletcher]

@LexusFordsSA it's def more real on the Islands than when I come here to visit the states. everyone fuckin walks around with i pods in their ears. all scared of each other. and shit. no one buys music and the girls are all stuck up and materialistic.. at least the hot ones. y'all totally ignore the homeless and live in FEAR.... and I jam all kinds of music. party shit... to Devin.. to Dead Prez..... doomilazy is just some bullshit man. get with the program.

[basementrat]

@FreestyleFletcher This guy is a turd....hahahaha

[FreestyleFletcher]

@basementrat go back to your dirty ass basement and jerk it to your doomilazy shrine.

[basementrat]

@FreestyleFletcher ooooh ur a sassy boy

@lyricsfromsweden no. i read it. i'm cool, thanks.

[basementrat]

@FreestyleFletcher dont you mean "no i read it im a fag thanks"? hahah so did you pick a beat for out epic battle dicklips?

[TheYerp26]

@FreestyleFletcher You go on mad DOOM songs just to talk shit about him? Are you really that pathetic? You aint got nothin better to do i guess. Just because you aren't smart enough to understand half of what he says doesn't mean that he sucks. It means that you are fucking retarded.

[FreestyleFletcher]

@TheYerp26 whatever you typical dumb fuck. You sound like an idiot. I know what he's sayin and it ain't shit.

[killermanhat]

[hotdog7007]

Fantastic Planet!

[chavez1311]

If to know what is, is to know what has been. And if what is now has become then...

where are we?

[phenomenom20]

MF DOOM = ANOTHER ILLUMINATI PUPPET SMH

[jstewart713]

@phenomenom20

Explain.

[TheRunningScout]

@jstewart713 i think hes refering too that picture of the giant and quasimoto but i dont think that he realizes that the picture is quasimoto

[fabioz91]

@phenomenom20 tell me more

[M450N23]

this is so inspiring.. Yeah I dig the Sun Ra in this.. they all continue where the ancients left off...

[1legerdemain1]

thats amazing

[wyteboybb]

This took me on a journey.

[dazamaru]

I just love that madlib gives props to another fellow abstractionist...Sun Ra



[415BAY415]

Cool that Thom Yorke digs Madvillain. Maybe influecing future work??

[dazamaru]

@415BAY415 Who da fugg is Thom Yorke...and why is he even mentioned here?

[415BAY415]

@dazamaru he's the singer from Radiohead, which is a great band. But he likes a lot of different types of music, and reccomends stuff to fans on their site like weekly. He usually has Madlib,or MF DOOM on the lists. There was like 2 quazimoto tracks on the last one he made. Just spreading the word on underappreciated music.

[dazamaru]

@415BAY415 ive heard of radiohead....trip/hop electronica Right?

hey any cat that digs DOOM and Madlib is all right in my book....im gonna check him out...any recommendations?

[415BAY415]

@dazamaru Their style changes from album to album, sometimes in a completely different direction, but overall id say they are an alternative/ experimental rock band. Labels don't really do them justice tho. For songs to check out, id take a look at morning bell ( kid a version ), the national anthem, climbing up the walls,everything in its right place, and you and whose army?

I hav a feeling those will apeal to you, tell me what you think good or bad. That's just the tip of the iceberg

[dazamaru]

@415BAY415 ok...ive listend to Karma Police, Paranoid android, I kinda like Fake Plastic Trees.....but i think they are just not my flavor...kinda droll and depressing.....thanks anyway.

[415BAY415]

@dazamaru No worries, we all have different taste. Did you listen to the ones I said?

[dazamaru]

@415BAY415 im gonna look em up latr 2nite,bruva...i talked to my boy, he's into them...can I get them cuts free? or listen to a stream? I got recording software so I can record and burn em

im like that too...i listen to 20th century classical to the most degrading hip hop...LOL...its good to check out new bands....thanks

[DaneSupreme]

what up Mozart??

[MrMLD72MLD]

♥ .

[ktrack89]

how and/or where can i get this instrumental?

[embarazada1]

of course it was Thom

[svepe123]

[blockymock]

[NICKD92570]

@EmmanuelThomas02 fuck no

[arculano55]

@NICKD92570 actually it is

[ILLCRILLKILLER]

This is Intelligence. No less presented by Mf Doom and MADLIB with Quasimoto

[Ukicazabonje]

Stonesthrow the best!

[dom409]

@Ukicazabonje MF Doom left Stones Throw a while ago, he's on RhymeSayers

[MrP945]

@dom409 Madvillain was released on sthonestrhow though, nd Madlib never left

[Knobbingham]

yeah I never felt this song. the first verse always threw me off. too abstract. video is ill as ever tho

ONE

[Chickenbuster23]

lord quas is quasimoto who is madlib, madlib worked with mf doom to make the album madvilliany, madlib and mf doom make the group madvillian thats it

[doowallid]

what's the name of the sun ra sample song ??

[MeegoNappz]

The illest!!

Dope vomit spit remix

/watch?v=6wchDFK95nA

[SK8MAFIA4LIFE16]

in the desciption it says with madlib and quasimoto? madlib IS quasimoto, just a different alias/alter ego. madlib produces, lord quas raps.

[cRodz42]

it makes sense

madlib is Madvillain

Lord Quas is featured

[SK8MAFIA4LIFE16]

@crodz42 no u r-tard, madlib PLUS mf doom is madvillian. its a duo, not a person. do ur research.

[Borncause08]

Madlib raps too... Under the name "madlib"...

[SK8MAFIA4LIFE16]

but still, madlib and lord quas are the same person!

[Borncause08]

yup...

[allesism]

the same person, not the same artist

[baxzyc]

"Who chopped down the cherry tree?"

[stevesk8r]

the first time i heard this song when i got the album, i thought of it as an easily skipable song, but then i listened to it a couple more times, and somehow i absolutely love this song now

[Losx03]

simply amazing

Angel Race

[Maxmus050]

that voice is so fockin annoying ..

[xHEROINExWAFFLESx]

i love that pic with the alien from fantastic planet & quas's character

[sete374]

planet grave

[Rolexusn]

Ha ha this song is a crack. There's no deeper meaning though, he's just comparing past, present, and future in different ways. Hot song nonetheless.

[riccoman3000]

pure dopeness!

[Bonafide996]

this should be in the boondocks next season if somebody fights or rob something

[123456789eder]

Top Shotta

Surviver of a live crew, not out to jive you

It stings when he laugh when he at the bank drive-thru

Wylin', get me every red penny

Sold a lonely only child a imaginary enemy

[argueta714]

your fat.

[123456789eder]

yeah foo fur sure

[susideguy]

I think he is raping about how time is simply unfeasible, there is no know. When we see it or note its presence, its gone as fast as we noted it. There is now today, there is a future which is shaped and is the "real" today, and the past.

[1havtehsheep]

Mind = blown
