[jolsonator]

i love the chopped up dj'ing part at the end. the skipping is hella coo.

[WeareFANTOM]

Fuckin' hipsters. "I only like underground music" / "Kanye sounds like shit"

"I dislike mainstream music, it gives me eczema"

Anyway, Q&M got genius touch.

[jolsonator]

@WeareFANTOM haha triple thumbs up. its annoying when peeps dislike music just b/c its popular, why not appreciate both, good music is good music, popular or unpopular. given: mainstream typically is saturated w/ bullshit.

[psorgatz]

Where can i get this song? I have So Be It, but its not one of the tracks and this song is too sick not to listen to all the time

[ALPHABETASSASSINS]

KANNYE IS GARBAGE

[cov626]

If you like dope hip hop check out this dope ass 21 yr old emcee from cali just search "Dope One TCF" or "NaFuKnoProductions" this foo is dope as fuck!

[thedudem45]

[jolsonator]

@thedudem45 i hate eyedea, and I'm from his homestate of MN. hes's so whiney sounding, he's on some annoying emo rap bullshit. I like the others u listed, RA doesn't get enough love.

[ChicagoILLinois77312]

C.H.i.CAGO!!!

[MuDvAyNeXI]

[bigdl72]

kanye?

its all about qwel, and krayzie bone

[cockroachbalogna]

Kanye west actually has one or two good tracks out that I can listen to

-Runaway

-Good Friday.

Thats about it..

I'm definitely not a kanye fan, but still.

Fuck it though, Qwel>Kanye any day, all day, every day. hands down.

[Gremlin371]

this is an example of real hip-hop and it only has 16,600 views!!! the world is so ignorant when it comes to music.

[UsErNaMe1869]

thug life

[kaltklax]

naja, wer immer noch an MTV hängt und immer alles damit vergleicht hat sich eben noch nich davon getrennt..darum: trennt euch davon!!

[MrSITCHris]

its sad that this is the underground shit. Qwel is def one of the hottest MCs in the game and dont nobody know about him. The only good mainstream shit right now is of course EM!

[FreestyleFletcher]

@MrSITCHris  what about OUTKAST dumby.

[MrSITCHris]

@FreestyleFletcher FIRST OF ALL OUTKAST HASNT PUT ANYTHING OUT FOR A WHILE AND SECOND OF ALL THE LAST GOOD OUTKAST ALBUM WAS ATLIENS. DUDE ILL FUCKIN SCHOOL YOU YOU ON HIP HOP DUMBY.

[FreestyleFletcher]

@MrSITCHris maybe u could school me but i bet i could school you too. that's how info flows dumby. plus.. the new big boi album is solid.. he's got a good style now. he fell off after aquameni.... plus how could u not like that album.. u gotta b alone on that one.. maybe you are just a commercial rapper player hater. andre has gotten so sick. and they may not be makin albums but they sure are gettin on tracks. peep royal flush. pluss mainly i'm sayin that they are what is needed in the MS

[FreestyleFletcher]

@MrSITCHris also I think they just hold a special place for me. ATLiens was the first cd i ever bought (after tapes) in 7th grade when it came out. i even lost my personal virginity to the cd chick. wana get schooled. come to my town and we can rap..... or learn about those real central texas mcs. Dusty Grin, Omniii, Heroes, Promise Pseudo, the word association, emcee eats, tony of the cosmos, bless one, van smear, professor pressure, freestyle fletcher, Kilmatik, n Jonny Kastle

[MrSITCHris]

@FreestyleFletcher  YEP JUST ANOTHER TYPICAL YOU TUBE E THUG YOU ARE. I BET YOUR RHYMES ARE BOOTY WHOS YOUR FAV M.C. lIL WAYNE OR IS IT KANYE OR LET ME GUESS DRAKE. JUST THOSE THREE RIGHT THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO FUEL MY HATE FOR COMMERCIAL RAP OR SHOULD I SAY CRAP

[FreestyleFletcher]

@MrSITCHris e thug, how's that? and i don't listen to those guys or the radio, i don't let that shit enter my consciousness. i don't get hung up on it. besides that will all change in time as real rap rises. so i'm not worried. so they arn't really a concern of mine. and my lyrics go a lil deeper than that. i'll send you some. just don't steel em

[FreestyleFletcher]

@MrSITCHris and Perceph One (houston female) come to my town in two weeks and catch the most intimate Quel and Maker show you ever saw in you life. 1 foot tall stage in the corner of a lil bar called the triple crown with amazing sound. no more than maybe 25 to 35 folks there. DUMBY

[zonker42569178]

fuck kanye fuck wayne duck drake fuck gucci fuck soulja boy fuck the new mainstream shit!

[FreestyleFletcher]

@zonker42569178  focus less on fuck this fuck that, and more on the good dudes in rap....that's how to rise dude. you're not reachin anyone with that mentality.

[twonalgas777]

legit

[Chetrooper1]

isnt this the beat to doomtree's knives on fire?

doesnt matter i fuckin love all of G4 and doomtree.

THIS IS REAL HIP HOP

[scarykiwi]

rtie here! Typical Cats r awsum

[isrv]

MTV the death of HIPHOP

[FreestyleFletcher]

@isrv i say that hip hop is better bc it went to the underground. it's better these days. if we had a time machine these new underground cats would kill old rappers

[FreestyleFletcher]

@FreestyleFletcher also I think they just hold a special place for me. ATLiens was the first cd i ever bought (after tapes) in 7th grade when it came out. i even lost my personal virginity to the cd chick. wana get schooled. come to my town and we can rap..... or learn about those real central texas mcs. Dusty Grin, Omniii, Heroes, Promise Pseudo, the word association, emcee eats, tony of the cosmos, bless one, van smear, professor pressure, freestyle fletcher, Kilmatik, n Jonny Kastle

[isrv]

@FreestyleFletcher uhhhhh...? 

[FreestyleFletcher]

@isrv what do u mean uhhhhh?

[isrv]

@FreestyleFletcher dont understand your comment lol are you like saying mtv has helped it in a way??

[FreestyleFletcher]

@isrv i didn't say anything about MTV... MTV is over as a music channel. mainly just talkin about mainstream.. seems like people are always so focused on hating on it. and even though it sucks and is soulless. it has no bearing on good hip hop. and the internet will give rise to good rap... things change.. that's all i'm saying. just sayin.not worried about bad rap. it is what it is. i consider it pop. and it serves it's purpose. all i know is i'm seeing Quel and Maker in less than a month.

[twonalgas777]

legit

[FilthyRotten666]

typical cats no doubt! qwels style is STILL untouchable!

[illmofos]

qwel + maker = dope fuckin genius music....

[DJRustyshackelford]

fuckin phenominal song (SP)......wow

[is300onyx]

I just got done listening to the Benie Sigel - The Truth. That song holds nothing compared to this. Qwel and Maker IS The TRUTH! Chi-town represent! UIC represent! G4 represent! Typical fans represent! WHAT!

[h0ndawg]

Doomtree rocked that organ sample too, they tore that shit up.....watch for the flying teeth

[entanglement]

love from london. qwel has been smashing it for a long time now; ever since i heard the manhattan project i knew he was on some next

[whatdahek4120]

He ripped this beat way harder than Beans. Top of the line spitted! Check out there live shows truely great artist.

[Astrobot203]

I'm Gandhi with a bulletproof vest

Malcolm X kickin' a freestyle, whatchu expect?

You ain't expect Martin Luther King with a gat

Leavin a church yelling "Go back!"

[Gremlin371]

ill qwel and maker are a good mix

[fiend4hiphop]

you think so...i couldnt compare the two...beats rockin anyone who can rip it its gunna sound good..two diff styles...i like them both and im slowly starting to hate kanye more and more

[xtremelink]

Beans rode the beat better IMHO. But I do like what Maker did with the beat past 2:20.

[Gmoreno89]

@fiend4hiphop don't hate...just ignore

[xtremelink]

Sorry but Beanie Sigel and Kanye West did a better job with this beat. And that's coming from a Qwel fan since '03.

[ageof]

u nuts?

[rizwan182]

Kanye West is whack as fuck, no way can you honestly like both.

Let me ask you this, what do you look for in a song?

Where my Qwel/Typical Cat fans at?

[yungthuggydoe]

RITE WIT U NIGGA

[funnystuff114]

@rizwan182 Don't be a tool.. Kanye is dope, he's one of the best producers of this decade. There's no reason you can't like both.

[rizwan182]

@funnystuff114 I'm not being a tool by stating my opinion, a lot of people look at Qwel for his lyricism, I'll give Kanye his first two albums; they were sick. But now it's definitely not the case. I don't look at both in the same playing field, just my opinion.

[DudefromEvanston]

@rizwan182 I gotta disagree, I love typical cats and Kanye. Kanye may be a total asshole who gives chicagoans a bad name, but damn did he make some great music. His newer albums ain't really shit, but his first two, im my opinion those were gold

[scrEYEB]

i like kanye and qwel

in a song, i look for anything interesting or mentally stimulating.

Qwel is an INCREDIBLE song writer

and kanye is FRESH. he's never afraid to take creative risks, regardless of who feels it or not. 808's and heartbreak was such a fearless record. he knew people would hate on it, but he made it anyway because HE liked it.

[fresh81steez]

@rizwan182 i dunno man,the mainstream is different. lilwayne,kanye west,rick ross are dope.. but so is qwel,aesop rock,mrlif & apathy. eminem nas and jayz are dope. so is binary star,cannibal ox and krs one. Respect to all hip hop,representing the culture,and milking the industry and getting paid.

[LoveSickAndTwisted]

@rizwan182 FUCK YES! CHI TIL I DIE!

[Ibprius]

@rizwan182

I dislike mainstream hip-hop. That being said, Kanye is mostly wack, but he comes out with some gems now and then. He samples, occasionally puts thought into rhymes: Those 2 things makes him better than most.

[MrSimpleFuc]

@rizwan182 actually you can... its called D-I-V-E-R-S-I-T-Y :0

[XanderBBo]

@rizwan182 I like Kanye & Qwel.

I like Kanye more as a producer than a rapper but he's not terrible.

808's wa whack, but College Dropout & Late Registration are dope.

[pimpin12595]

@rizwan182 you can like both you cant compare them though not the slightest bit.

[xXK1LLT4KUL4RXx]

@pimpin12595 Real talk

[illmofos]

@pimpin12595 real talk! kanye is beast! but MAKER is beast too!. all i gotta say is im glad im from CHICAGO..

[mikeskills83]

What track is this on the album

[MOSTtheJACKAL]

very soon!!!!!

[ThemBaddApples]

Maker will be a house hold name SOON!

[orangeAgent21]

omg. he's been out there for at least 8 years. i remember him from costume way back when.for you to say he will be a household name soon just sully's the purpose of his being

[ThemBaddApples]

Oh really...I'll let him know how I have "sullied" his name when he gets back into town!...I know to super backpackin underground heads they think they were the first to "discover" everything, but I've known the cat since he was a kid...when I say "house hold name" I"m talking a whole other status level...

[PEERAMIDEYE]

what song what album?

[misserlis]

chicago (we can change the world) on the album songs for beginners, 1971.

[PEERAMIDEYE]

what crosby stills and nash song??

[AdamWhitney]

Thanks for the help guys, Luckily Jeff from G4 is a bit more help than you fellows.

G4 and specifically Qwel = Run shit!!

[erikstalin]

sample?

[echerock]

this is the jam

[AdamWhitney]

Where is this on So Be It, I have the CD, is it hidden?

Qwel is best writer in hip hop, bar none.

[Isamright33]

best rap there is right now or ever was, most likely will be.

[JabberOff]

Fucking brilliant. It's a shame the Four Horsemen have already ridden through.

[danoe12105]

damn man these two together are unstoppable!! always a raw sound when these two make music

[imhh1]

wow thats super dope .. cant wait for the album
