For years I've witnessed countless rappers imitating Metro Zu (especially Ruben) and it doesn't make sense to me how they keep surpassing him in terms of exposure. I've seen Ruben set trends and have these mediocre rappers follow many months or even years later and people have been foolish enough to think that what they do is unique. Can somebody shed some light on why Metro Zu doesn't get the recognition they deserve? I swear they're gonna end up in a documentary one day as legends who made this drug/trippy culture of rap what it is today.
I guarantee you're right, which is fucking sad to agree with. I'd love to know though, exactly what makes the world not realize that they missed out on this group when they were putting out their best stuff? But hey we still have debatably the most talented person of the group, Slikk, still making us jams after his seemingly impossible release. I'll take it for what it is and watch the docu when it comes out.
I know I'm 2 years late with this response lol, but I feel the same way. It's just that they (ruben especially) delve into super subversive subject matter a lot more often than the mainstream copycats and I think that's why they never managed to reach that level of exposure. I think its a double edged sword where they never had to sacrifice their art for the sake of the industry but it did keep them from attaining the success they clearly deserved.
Huge respect to you Slikk i was hot when you got locked up but I'm glad to hear you are out on this positive shit. The world desperately needs it. Just like they need to call to Christ. Stay up
+RUBEN SLIKK (Ruben Slikk) aye SLIKK been a supporter for 4 yrs now I was even talking to Zeus when you was down cause I thought you was gone for good but he told me keep my head and look at you now the lord blessed you family don't go back and fuck this lames saying they want the old you their scared of change this new shit is on another level and it's gonna take you to that nxt step to greatness
Yo this made me so happy. I think jail did some good for Slikk. How he got out, I have no idea. He had like 10 charges lol. Pray he stays in good health!
Been a fan for almost 4 years now. And I can honestly say he's going harder than ever with these past few tracks. Staying focused, perfecting a song and finally not talking about dookie lol
Smokin', trappin', and burnin till sundown Woke up early in the morning, I'm loading my gun now I can surely see the warnings before me to come down Crackers label me a demon because of compound It'll never be the same as it was and you know it Still adapting to the change, being present in the moment Running laps around these lames knowin' they ain't really on it A hundred racks, a hundred chains, all from slaying my opponents Was in denial but I had to face my issues So depressed, I'm fucking pissed too In the struggle, ain't no house to bring a bitch to Way too insecure to kiss you Know that you deserve the best don't, mean to diss you Got dookie breath, I smell like shit too I'm risking my life, know I ain't living right So I pray every night cause my money is tight But my family in need so it's well worth the fight Serving Xannies and lean, 'bout to plan me a heist Feelin' bound by my deeds so I'm calling to Christ Praised a lot for these streets and the truth in my life And I came from the dark but I aim for the light Gave me the strength to survive in this world I been slavin' and robbin' and jivin' you girl Need some time to work on me, can't lie to you, girl I was born for these streets I live and die for these streets Just for my family to eat I'm give my life for these streets I've hustled all my life to the bone And gave it all to these streets, yeah Oh, I was born for these streets I live and die for these streets Just for my family to eat I'm give my life for these streets I've hustled all my life to the bone And gave it all to these streets, yeah Smoking blacks and eating vinegar and salt chips Junkies on me, for that horse, it's like a salt lick I drop a six of purple act up in my malt liq' You take a sip and don't wake up, it ain't my fault bitch Won't rape a chick I just say, "Welcome to my cult bitch" If you ain't know, I have been sexually assaulted Before I found my swag and from society, revolted I know the police watching, got they eye on me remotely I'm focused solving problems to improving change totally The way a nigga livin' tempted me to be a vulture I'm carving through the excess drama like a sculpture Wanna hold my mama down and love my woman like I'm 'posed to I've been working all week, still ain't made nothin' When your baby gotta eat, you gotta die by something Pay respect to the deceased, gotta cry bout somerthin' Now I'm feeling like a crease, 'bout to fold all the money Do I wanna live in peace? Thuggin' Friday to Sunday Every Monday, I be searching for cheese like a mo'fucking mice [?] church, I'm a vessel for Christ I'm just living my life I'm just living my life I'm just living my life I'm just living my life
Mans truly og. Born authentic n2 some mindgames 🌍 🌍 his time gonna come just the times ain’t right with cosmos. True recognition soon if #bigcomebacks feeeeeshmeex
if anyone's a true slikk fan they will accept this, so what he changed it up? a true slikk fan will bump this just as hard as his old stuff. the people that stop listening because of this are so biased and shouldn't have listened in the first place, so much respect out to him for this, I say keep going slikk, fuck the haters, this is fire your gonna go far man
Don't know if he's gonna pull a 180. He's just ahead of the time. I'm surprised feminists haven't went nuts on him yet. ... oh and a lot of people are shocked to hear he was sexually assaulted... a lot boys were, but they suppress that shit so they dont even remember it. obviously, he's looked deep inside himself.
I pray Slikk gets his money and respect where its due! I feel like he really lives exactly what he raps unlike most of these sellout clout demons with 2 braincells left only capable of stealing SWAGGER!
Nah I don't think he will lose his real fans. this is the reason we started Listenin to slikk back in the metro zu days. I like his funny stuff too tho
like what yall got to say. I fucks wit metro zu hard but im not an original fan. my boy put me on them year before last. but all thus dude need us ONE gucci feature and hes on tv
+brokenupbeat I feel you but at the same almost nobidy blow up by theyself. they always have a co sign now adays. and i gareentee wen he gt more exsposure he gone delete most his videos
Wtf are you guys talkin about? This track is amazing Ruben sounds like he's really back on his shit. And he's cleaning up his act which is great to see.
Ruben Slikk will always be one of the most creative and influential artists

lil uzi vert's style (as in appearance)...totally bit off Slikk the jizzgud.

Dawn Duchess he smell like shit too
based
So fucking amazing best rapper ever
@Rape Waffen Ausarten I can't google that word
@Rape Waffen Ausarten damn I didn't even know where can I find dude at ?
Thank you, Ruben Slikk :)
***** I cried when he was finally freed :)
Smokin', trappin', and burnin till sundown
Woke up early in the morning, I'm loading my gun now
I can surely see the warnings before me to come down
Crackers label me a demon because of compound
It'll never be the same as it was and you know it
Still adapting to the change, being present in the moment
Running laps around these lames knowin' they ain't really on it
A hundred racks, a hundred chains, all from slaying my opponents
Was in denial but I had to face my issues
So depressed, I'm fucking pissed too
In the struggle, ain't no house to bring a bitch to
Way too insecure to kiss you
Know that you deserve the best don't, mean to diss you
Got dookie breath, I smell like shit too
I'm risking my life, know I ain't living right
So I pray every night cause my money is tight
But my family in need so it's well worth the fight
Serving Xannies and lean, 'bout to plan me a heist
Feelin' bound by my deeds so I'm calling to Christ
Praised a lot for these streets and the truth in my life
And I came from the dark but I aim for the light
Gave me the strength to survive in this world
I been slavin' and robbin' and jivin' you girl
Need some time to work on me, can't lie to you, girl
I was born for these streets
I live and die for these streets
Just for my family to eat
I'm give my life for these streets
I've hustled all my life to the bone
And gave it all to these streets, yeah
Oh, I was born for these streets
I live and die for these streets
Just for my family to eat
I'm give my life for these streets
I've hustled all my life to the bone
And gave it all to these streets, yeah
Smoking blacks and eating vinegar and salt chips
Junkies on me, for that horse, it's like a salt lick
I drop a six of purple act up in my malt liq'
You take a sip and don't wake up, it ain't my fault bitch
Won't rape a chick I just say, "Welcome to my cult bitch"
If you ain't know, I have been sexually assaulted
Before I found my swag and from society, revolted
I know the police watching, got they eye on me remotely
I'm focused solving problems to improving change totally
The way a nigga livin' tempted me to be a vulture
I'm carving through the excess drama like a sculpture
Wanna hold my mama down and love my woman like I'm 'posed to
I've been working all week, still ain't made nothin'
When your baby gotta eat, you gotta die by something
Pay respect to the deceased, gotta cry bout somerthin'
Now I'm feeling like a crease, 'bout to fold all the money
Do I wanna live in peace? Thuggin' Friday to Sunday
Every Monday, I be searching for cheese like a mo'fucking mice
[?] church, I'm a vessel for Christ
I'm just living my life
I'm just living my life
I'm just living my life
I'm just living my life
Every body trying to treat this like the old based Slikk. Stop with the comments. This was on a whole other upper escalation.
Mans truly og. Born authentic n2 some mindgames 🌍 🌍 his time gonna come just the times ain’t right with cosmos. True recognition soon if #bigcomebacks feeeeeshmeex

how has this man still only got 8k subs
I just found out about Ruben slikk from his dj smokey coman tape and damn I’ve been sleeping.... what else should I listen to?
King Astro Slikk The Magnificent is the best I swear but his other stuff is great in it's own way.
The early Metro Zu albums.. like Buddah Therapy, Kushpac, and etc.. songs like LSD Swag
@@NEMtvOfficiallove Buddha therapy, I love don’t try on there
this is great, thank you, one day at a time homie
Don't know if he's gonna pull a 180. He's just ahead of the time. I'm surprised feminists haven't went nuts on him yet. ... oh and a lot of people are shocked to hear he was sexually assaulted... a lot boys were, but they suppress that shit so they dont even remember it. obviously, he's looked deep inside himself.
