Death of an Indie Label - Part 1 of 5 - Esham Shockumentary

[tamatownskater]

This is so sick. I love being able to see into a piece of Hip Hop history.

[XHEADTOWALLX]

Down since day one.

This shit takes me back...

I still got an original RLP devil in the moon shirt.

[wadeandawesomeshit]

the music is fucking annoying

[TheZigzach]

I cant hear shit



[Juggalo4VCompiler]

I'm down with both. True to E of course. RLP will never die fools. Some of the talk here is bogus to me. Pointing out that ICP has songs dissing redneck bigots in the south and comparing that to boondox is retarded. I can guarantee that trenchcoat dirty has the same anti bigot values that us juggalos and suicidalists have. Sure, the new shit isn't the old shit and the new rappers aren't the old ones but that's never been how it is IRL. shit changes. We're all still family, haters ... suck it

[johawkjonesisnasty]

What is that first song? That ooo wee shit?

[ADramaSandwhich]

@johawkjonesisnasty It's Esham's Oooooooowweeeeeeee!!!! from DMT Sessions.

[GimmEdatBlooD2]

I loved aint ya homey even if he was talkin shiz

[GimmEdatBlooD2]

Even tho that person may suck u jus simply go somewere else an do something else

[GimmEdatBlooD2]

Who the fuck cares es down for life an can talk as much shit about me a ninja as he wants an i still got love.its bs someone cant perform wit out being bombed wit shit.

[RiddleBox3092]

I lost respect for Esham after that Druggalo song and I Ain't Cha Homie. His shit before that was pretty damn good. like before his days with the JH

[TheKINGTATE23]

Esam should write a book.

[LordKragcore]

whats the song right at the start?

[warlock253]

@LordKragcore its on his cd DMT Sessions

[Mr3rdparty420]

Esham is still the only wicked motherfucker out there the onle one keepin it real icp is all fuck the south in the begging now they got some southern rapper under their label its just fucked puttin all these sell out fuckin rapers on their shit FUCK THAT ESHAM IS STILL AND AWAYS WILL BE THE ONLY TRUE HIP HOP OUT THERE BESIDES IMMORTAL EASTSIDE MONEY AND HO'Z 4 LIFE MOTHERFUCKOZ

[TheNintendoJuggalo]

[budsallday420666]

Fckn Dope!

Anyone Know

[anythingoriginal]

Hey ESHAM!! What's the true story between you and Dice??? There's a flip side to every story!! I used to love your shit, but IDK you remind me of Eminem now. I might still listen to your old shit, but there is no way you could ever puff a blunt with me!!

[TheEviIOyo]

That shit aint outta business lol. esham is still paid and just signed some new nigga

[aerodevelopment]

for all of you that want the opening song its called Oooooooooooohhhhhwwwwwwweeeeee­eeeee off of dmt sessions

[landoland42]

All In The Name of R.L.P.

The Wicked Shit Will Never Die(!!!)

[ScalpYourWig]

befor e-scum ,ther was ... Geto boys , kool Kieth , Cap 1 of SIMKEN HEIGHT's , Insane Poetry and so on

[AcidIntellects]

Before ICP, Necro, odd future..there was ESHAM

[IsaacBaranoff]

@AcidIntellects Before him was Insane Poetry, Brotha Lynch Hung, Ganksta Nip and Bushwick Bill.

[AcidIntellects]

@IsaacBaranoff True except for Lynch..he def came out after Esham..but they are all pioneers of their time..and i am a fan of every artist you listed as well

[AudioLiquidation]

@IsaacBaranoff Correction. only Bushwick Bill of the Geto Boys came before, Esham pre-dates Insane Poetry, Ganksta NIP, and Brotha Lynch.

[killashanniganz]

seriously someone tell me what the name of the opening song is please

[warlock253]

@killashanniganz its called "oooooohhhhhhwwwweeeeeeee"

[ScalpYourWig]

lol...neenahfox....you are stupid...he was charged for the crime he committed...plus james aka deadgirl is mentaly challenged...just like esham and fem and icp and kid cock...they all hoes outta detroit...especialy you neenah

[NEENAHFOX]

@ScalpYourWig You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Don't believe everything you hear in yhe streets. The bitch wasn't raped! and Esham's music is sampled a lot. Don't talk about shit that you don't have personal knowledge.

[Itsandy89]

6:00 Future Juggalos of America Convention lol. no offense.

[redrum41987]

kid rock at 8:08

[Maccassi8200]

Was the name of the intro song that always be playin ? i need that FAST

[anonimity304]

Damn, Mas+amind lookin fat as all hell these days.

[LASVEGASGHETTO]

this shit brought back memories...RIP RLP...respect from las vegas nevada...whats up oscoda michigan!!!

[LASVEGASGHETTO]

i was born in michigan and lived there in 91-92 and in 94-95 and i dont care what anyone says...ESHAM & ICP WERE FUCKIN KILLIN IT BACK THEN! some of the best & original music ever...PERIOD...who remembers when natas - do u believe n god came out...or when project born - born dead...or fuckin mastamind - lickuidraino came out...i do...i lost all my originals through the years but i bought the fuckin tapes when they first came out. esham & icp sucks now but their first shit is UNTOUCHABLE...

[hubcapface]

@LASVEGASGHETTO Agree on the ICP front but Suspended Animation and DMT Sessions were pure dope.......best shit i've heard in ages. I think Esham is still killing it. That stuff with Psychopathic was the only down point in his career.

[gothominc]

@hubcapface I agree..BillYen

[sideways77transam]

HUH I STILL HAVE THAT RLP T SHIRT THAT ESHAM HAS ON. BEEN OFFERED SERIUOS MONEY FOR IT. WOULDN'T SELL IT FOR A MILLION DOLLARS RLP FOR LIFE BABY

[nikkynala26]

goddamn E about time you dropped a whole movie like this. Always be down even if you drop the whackest song of all time. REEL LIFE DAY ONE all that shit!

[keithmartinez100]

Esham is the greatest!

IF you don't know now ya know!

Nobody has done what he has done,he opened all the doors !

R.L.P. FOR LIFE!

[IsaacBaranoff]

Esham could have easily relaunched RLP as a subsidiary of Psychopathic when he was under them, or ran the Urban Music Zone subsidiary. He didn't because he wanted his independence. The fact that you can't buy any of his back catalog in physical format nowadays, and that so many people complain about not getting orders from the Hellava Store proves that he does need some help doing things, and his brother doesn't have the right mental state for that.

[wicket4life]

@IsaacBaranoff i ordered that I ain't your homie CD and they never sent that shit

[TACyadig]

Djb is absolutely right. Esham did this to himself. It's unfortunate really, one of the greatest industry secrets. His attitude is what killed it for him.

[LordInfamous2011]

Hmm...so tyler the creator and them odd future boys are all over MTV, doing shit esham first did 20 years ago?? Where is esham's props? where is esham's respect?

[keepItreal923]

i've been waiting for something like this from him.

[SuicidalAlice]

wow..nice..



[earthworm6661]

Nevermind found it

[earthworm6661]

Any one know what the song in the very beginning is?

[oldripyone]

[oldripyone]

[detroitmastermind]

DEAD BOY( James Smith) IS CHAOS MAGICK.

[keithmartinez100]

East Side Hoez And Money!

Fuck all the rappers in the world!

Can't nobody touch ESHAM!

[modogg2279]

I'm Michigan Born & Raised. I Grew up listenin to RLP since i was a kid. I got mad love for esham and the style he created.

[BeterKayfabe]

Esham had such a profound influence on me as a teenager. It's both awesome and sad to watch this.

[FreedomRecords562]

Been waiting years for this. so happy to see some Esham footage

[killaz702]

ESHAM'S DOPE HOE!!!

[bubbazz92]

Esham is bomb Niggaz

[SMACKER7034]

I loved Esham, grew up on all his stuff. My brother's band at the time, "sometimes why?" where at the Disc in Detroit recording an album and Esham and Natas were recording Blaz4me. long story short, my brother's band was the band featured on Booya, and my bro and the bassist did several other tracks on the album. All the kids in my neighborhood went nuts!!! For one reason though, Esham was an absolute innovator, and NOBODY was doin shit like him at the time. One of my biggest influences. respect

[TheBC313]

@SMACKER7034 Thats awesome, Booyaa is a killer track

[coldsoulschmidtbull]

mufuckin lil bitch ass jump off the porch rappers need to respect they founders, originators, legends, vets, and elders...... who paved the way

[STRIK9DETROIT]

Why would/did the label die? He's always been independent,aside from distribution.He owned that gotham shit too.

[TheKINGTATE23]

esham is the greatest

[nokilla1]

BUY the CD you fucks.....best documentary I ever seen from my all time favorite artist REEL SHIT no dick riding E goes down as #1 to me

[tonysakich]

This looks awesome....

Have you considered a narrator and a more traditional story arc? I was sort of lost to what is going on for half this.....

Other than that, awesome

[jiggaflex]

i cant believe hes had this footage all these years, then drops it on ya ass out of no where.

lol kid rock looked so young

[anonimity304]

[TheBC313]

Damn Esham looks so much like Cube @ 9:03

[LBM630]

and "LOL" @ Kid Rock at the 7:59 mark... pff

He sold out waaay worse then anyone from Detroit. At least Em stayed true to his roots for the most part.

[LBM630]

I've said this once & I will say it again: "Boomin Words from Hell" all the way to "Tongues" will be the illest shit anyone who does Horrorcore or tampers with that genre will ever put out..

[TheBC313]

Awesome footage, Cant wait for the rest

[Druggalo313]

kid rock 828

[Druggalo313]

[YpsiClown9014]

[LilEagal777]

Lil Eagal da angel from above

[REELLIFE1980]

Damn this is that reel shit wheres part2?



[midnitebluez313]

in the beginging of the vid it says in 2011 the label died....8 really really hope esham doesnt quit making music. when that day will come, it will be a sad day for hip hop and a sad day for the detroit music scene.

[HorrorcoreStash]

Glad to see something like a Documentary of Esham on here, been a fan for awhile. I still hope the RLP Documentary is released, unless this is what it has become. Either way, looking forward to seeing all of the parts.

[DevilRap]

I was at that show @Todds.....so dope

[YpsiClown9014]

how and where can i see the rest of this?

[Slicknificent]

Esham looks like Eric Sermon in this video lol.

[Slicknificent]

DAMN IM ANGRY THAT ESHAM TOOK SO LONG TO SHOW HIS OLD PERFORMANCES!

[evildoerdoinevil]

this shits nuts

[paypatone]

For someone who thinks ESHAM is the g.o.a.t. I dont know man it makes me sad and pisses me off at the same time seeing this. Deadboys lost his minds after all the time he was locked up and..well where he's at in life. These two should be living the life they worked 20 years for, the good life but we can all see that is not the case. reel life, man it dont get any more real then this.They created a style that so many get paid for, few if any give him props for all he has done. DAY 1er RLP

[Phunk2k]

@paypatone well said

[SumoSmurf]

@paypatone Well said. I totally agree.

[TheDjb85]

@paypatone As much as I agree with this, I don't. Esham has been given props only to disrespect those who compliment him or gave him the credit. He paved the way to his own demise by being so ungrateful to those who paid homage. No need to give examples. His jealousy burnt all his bridges so therefore I don't feel bad about it all. I can understand being angry with seeing so many who were influenced by him progress to successful careers, but it was that attitude that killed possibilities RIP RLP

[TheDirtRoadNinja]

Esham you will always be my favorite rapper.

[xXSaigonGamesXx]

Was a good documentary

[Phunk2k]

whens part 2 coming gothominc?

[devilz37]

So is there no more RLP?? If there isn't this is a very sad day :-(

[Wickedblackjuggalo19]

Well nice sick & wicked. I definitely enjoyed the documentary.

[Phunk2k]

10th

[Titsbongripsnbeer420]

Thats when you know something is wreong with the world,when little kids know about esham. Waite till yer older to know and get into Eshamès acid rap tunes. peace

[mediacesspool]

@Titsbongripsnbeer420 Better to have kids knowing Esham than following the newest corporate clone rapper. Esham has always told stories at face value. It seems like rappers nowdays are manufactured by rich, corporate dicks that research "urban" life and spit out a false interpretation that, in turn, becomes the standard. If a kid is jammin' to Esham instead of some corporate tool like Chris Brown, they've done their homework and they have earned my respect.
