[LifeHasLived]

[CobaltiSickle]

Why doesn't Mr. Lif have the award for "Best Rapper"?

[ThatWasMyPoptart]

CRAP!! This makes me want to go buy another PS2 and buy tony hawk underground and play it again just to hear the awesome soundtrack. haha

[MattSmith166]

@ThatWasMyPoptart Do it.

[ThatWasMyPoptart]

the good ole days of playing tony hawk underground. Good times. . .

[abSOULuteD]

When I hear this.. I think of late nights during the early mid 90's or in the 80's.

[kwieso]

wishing mr.lif a happy new year! I will always stay PHANTOM!!!!

[WXNXFofficial]

I normally don't like rap but, I love this song sense I first heard it c: this is better than those shitty songs right now c;

[123drue]

@WXNXFofficial There is lots of great underground hip-hop. Its totally different to the bullshit on mtv.

[topaulandbeyond]

@123drue yeah underground rappers put way more thought into their lyrics and usually have a WAY better flow.

[TheUnseen97]

@123drue MTV is basically "Mainstream TV". So yea. It is totally different.

[OfWgKtABIATCH]

i phantom.

[Spartan1430]

Nostalgia of T.H.U.G ;)

[TylarPomroyskates]

LYRICS LYRICS LYRICS

[TheHechoenmexico1]

i get high and eat shroom to this

[fookii99]

@TheHechoenmexico1 i somehow really hope your just a dumb 12 year old, rather than somebody hating on music that has any aspect of being apstract

[jtkkowal]

@PumaSweat I bet man, its a shame and really pisses me off how these new groups come in, some good some some bad, get all these views when all they rap or sing about is this bull shit, and u got rappers like this with incredible lyrics not get many views, its a shame

[jtkkowal]

Not a big fan of rap but this song is fuckin good, lyrics are crazy, true rap here

[PumaSweat]

@jtkkowal Dude you shold see him do it live! He has crazy energy when he does this song and the crowd goes CRAZY! I seen him with Wille Evans Jr two summers ago DOPE SHOW! and he is mad cool, I talked to that dude for like 20 minutes like we was oldskoll homies. He seriously does what he says.

[ChillChief1]

illest song

[therealbrooksie]

lil wayne is a joke

mr lif keep reppin boston my group epic fail will be joining the scene too

[TheUnseen97]

The second verse is simply the greatest verse in all of rap history. Go look up the lyrics on google. Type in "Lyrics for Phantom by mr lif" and click on the lyricsmode[.]com link. Sit there and just read the second verse slowing while understanding everyhting he's trying to say with all the metaphors and such. Just great.

[AABeatzz]

Classic 

[pwih1987]

And they say lil wayne is the best? Bullshit. The best tool for corporate interest.

[SlimR3d]

Thank you T.H.U.G for introducing me to Lif.

[ParticalEMotion]

This is where I am, this is where I wanna be.

[NESClassic1]

Thumbs up if you first heard this in T.H.U.G

[UseHERname93]

[killacole18]

@OverRankedX I think mr lif is 500 times better than T.I. all T.I. talks about is getting drunk doing pills and hating on white pple, T.I. aint mature

[ArcticInfinity]

[SlimR3d]

Lif is a beat master and lyrical genius. Well done Mr.

[ThirdEyeAlwaysOpen]

@SlimR3d Did Lif do this beat? Sounds like an El-P production to me.

[cKunke2]

@ThirdEyeAlwaysOpen It's definitely an El-P beat. I have the album and it says produced by El-P on this track

[DoinDMG]

THUG!

[617x]

I phantom

[3000NIZATION]

listen to this while your high , you wont be dissaponted (;

[IFknHateUTube]

this is rubbish chav nigger music

[ndovey85]

@IFknHateUTube rubbish troll is rubbish

[IFknHateUTube]

@ndovey85 It's not trolling if it's the truth.  this is chav shit and you know it

[ndovey85]

@IFknHateUTube Ah now see, what you've done there is confuse 'the truth' with 'an opinion' - an easy mistake. Never fear, child, you'll learn...

[IFknHateUTube]

@ndovey85 calling it chav music is not an opinion, it's a factual classification. I will concede though that calling it shit is an opinion though.

[opiodrome]

@IFknHateUTube Your trolling is shit.

[IFknHateUTube]

@opiodrome it's not trolling if it's the truth dumb cunt

[Xmare1]

@IFknHateUTube Go back to lil wayne's poser shit troll

[IFknHateUTube]

@Xmare1 lol at the idiot chav who could not decipher that i don't like nigger music

[Xmare1]

@IFknHateUTube lol at the fail nazi racist. Go back to your tralier and stop bothering people with real taste in music.

[IFknHateUTube]

@Xmare1 nazi's didn't give a shit about niggers one way or the other. It's always funny to see that chav education in action though, thanks for replying

[Xmare1]

@IFknHateUTube You do realize "chav" is a term for English people, right? There's a differance between American and English. It's always hilarious to see a racist fuck up. If you dont like the music fuck off, no one wants to hear some asshole bitch about what he likes. Oh, and that "nigger music" as you call it? It's made this artist millions, go do something with your life and stop wasting it trying to piss people off.

[IFknHateUTube]

@Xmare1 I know exactly what I said and having no shame and exploiting idiots with bad taste in order to earn money isn't something that I envy. I'd rather have integrity than cater to the most worthless and most ignorant members of society so that I can con them out of some of their money that they should really be spending on birth control and healthy food.

[hsojnamrebeil]

@IFknHateUTube you're talking childish racist shit in youtube comments and you think you've got integrity?

BAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAA­HHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH­AHA.

what a world.

[cKunke2]

@hsojnamrebeil Hahahaha. "IfknhateUTube" is a straight clown.

[twoNujabes]

@IFknHateUTube listen here mother bitch, if you dont like it then screw off, very simple

[IFknHateUTube]

@twoNujabes hahahaha mother bitch? Anyway, how the fuck was I supposed to know I wouldn't like it if I hadn't listened to it you stupid cunt? Got any other genius suggestions for me dick sucker?

[Balthazar121]

well... this song has really got the issue of my life put forward

[cyborgdata]

crazy....

[MrDJ217]

Perfect beat, lyrics that have true meaning behind it.... perfect song.

[BboyFlimsy]

I listened to this song the first time I did salvia. As soon as it hit was the real reverby part in the middle of the song. It was the only thing I heard while in some other dimension.

[LexyAAA]

This dude reminds me so much of Murs.

[ETruthy]

Oh my god. I fucking love this song...THUG...great memories :)

[powaa4u]

frauenarzt - titten raus <- legendary

[smileybob29]

He's Gunna be at Camp Bisco sooo pummpped

[doctorhelicopter]

This is sick. Mr Lif is a legend.

[BunnySoFlyable]

i phantom, apple dead people XD

[DUSKtheIMPALER]

This is so poetic and abstract.

[DUSKtheIMPALER]

Why don't they make rap songs like this anymore?

[punkyhiphopdood]

@DUSKtheIMPALER They still do, mostly in Seattle now though. But most of the best rappers left are getting well into their 30's and producing less stuff. There's just not a lot of really quality young MC's coming through. It's all mainstream sounding garbage that no one likes anymore.

[seanpaul212121]

@punkyhiphopdood *)) Mainstream that no one likes anymore jaja

[do0rkn0b]

@DUSKtheIMPALER they don't make hip hop like this because rap took over.

[whyboter1]

@DUSKtheIMPALER because people somehow thinks THIS is wac. But the mdern rap is about stupid shit

[ItzDaWizzyDizz]

@DUSKtheIMPALER Lead the way.

[thedoctorrobin]

@DUSKtheIMPALER they do you just have to look!

[colormejesus666]

Wait, the word they censored in this song on the T.H.U.G. soundtrack was the word gun... Seriously?

[Gud4nuffin12]

mint.



[akitsaws666]

[Casimmortal]

I loooove this song it brings bag so many THUG1 memories tryna run from the drug dealers and go to new york

[tehRelinquished]

Man, this song. I haven't heard it in years, I stumbled across this surfing YouTube, I forgot how incredible this is.

[ArmyOfThePharaohz]

this has so many subliminal messages.

[cKunke2]

@ArmyOfThePharaohz like what?

[ArmyOfThePharaohz]

@cKunke2 like the whole fuckin song lol alot of it is talking about society/gov shit

[cKunke2]

@ArmyOfThePharaohz Oh yeah. Not really subliminal though. Hes pretty up front and blunt about it

[MrHinadb]

i need this right now

[ESCOadrian92]

killuminati

[TomsConcoctions]

I bet Mr. Lif was stoked when Activision asked if they could feature this song in their game.

[Nahasapeemapetilon93]

@TomsConcoctions

i bet activision was stoked when he said they could put his song in their game

[Ievolovel]

@Nahasapeemapetilon93 Yeah, haha they better have been... Activision better not front on this!

[MaxiDude33]

5 people thought the dislike button said 'dis i like'

[left4dead44]

You gotta love this song there is no hating. First heard this on Tony Hawks Underground. Man do I miss those days of playing that game and listening to this song!

[scaryred24]

@left4dead44 Ya me 2. Long live THUG1 and THUG2.

[pickyourpoison559]

5 people just suck

[WickedCheesy7]

the only reason people dislike this is because it isn't the "Smoke Weed All Day, Money and Hoes" shit music of today. People are afraid of real lyrics

[ThaClownStudios]

@WickedCheesy7 AMEN BROTHER!

[BuzzedGaming7618]

@WickedCheesy7 Hater

[WeededMilk]

5 people tried to steal the Emergency Rations

[MrLifeKills]

How is it possible to dislike this song? If you don't like this song you don't like music, poetry, literature, painting, sculpture, or anything else that other humans like.

[headcrabslayer]

We will never hear anything as good as this. Hip Hop Is dead.

[Bluephantomsniper]

@headcrabslayer

No, there must be be a true "good" out there still waiting!

[headcrabslayer]

@Bluephantomsniper If there is they won't get a chance. People of today wouldn't understand.
