The Cold Vein is my childhood too bro. Coming back to this album 'cause i got sick during last year. Reminscing my childhood and all that good stuff. Much love from another CO addict
Man it has been like 17 years since I first heard the cold vein and that intro still gives me goosebumps. This album is absolute fucking fire. I never knew this documentary existed. Glad youtube decided I need to see it.
same! then years later in high school i would eventually go and listen to the whole album. still is one of my favorites to this day. the production is bonkers
+Felicia Mumper Did you go to the show. I went to their show in ATL last night. It was bittersweet. Wasn't really a lot of people. It felt odd not having the DefJux machine behind them.
4:38 "where i come from" and then the beat drops ...wow. and from that line to 6:15 is an intro to a monolgue for an actor on a stage imho. "money is everything" is the end of the intro. and where the monolgue starts (yet to be written). call it: 24 hrs is like...
i sent him an email and he pointed me in the right direction, the beat was uploaded on soundcloud some years back. " THE INFAMOUS DEF JUX THROWAWAY (feat Vastaire OR Crypticone) " uploaded by thePARADOXICALstate
You could buy Uzis even easier back in the day dude. If anything it's harder to buy guns now regardless of the internet. Come on El-P!! Def Jux forever. Apocalypse everyday I awake. Rock that gasmask. I've always loved how I disagree with half the shit he says yet agree with the other half.
I agree with shane. Its shameful and filled with sorrow but it fit the mold of todays times. Its important to realize the strategy of group encouragement even without the medicine. 20 years, who thunk it up? Lol
Vasts speaking voice is so amazingly close to his rapping voice, it's pretty freaky
He seems to have a natural rhythm when he speaks. You could play a beat behind him just talking and it would probably sound good.
I swear, "The Cold Vein" helped me get through a lot of shit. "Pigeon", "Scream Phoenix" and "Iron Galaxy". Okay, the whole album.
The Cold Vein is my childhood too bro. Coming back to this album 'cause i got sick during last year. Reminscing my childhood and all that good stuff. Much love from another CO addict
Seeing Aesop rock and el p together just makes me smile
enit man imagine the convo's in that room with those 2 brains bouncing off each other ...haha 😆
try to get that fuck to leave the house these days lmao

dutch tv
el-p is a total legend, inspirational
that intro is eerie el-p was aware and noided in 2002
video starts off with gta 3 sounds in the background as el-p talks about the apocalypse. couldnt fit the mood any better
Why did I just think the same shit?
Ace has my full respect. He just keeps getting better and holds to integrity.
This is the greatest shit, Def Jux cats freestyling over an instrumental played off of a Dreamcast.
Do U know the title of this instrumental?
This album is jus timeless and LEGENDARY. So profound and had an otherworldly affect on me as a kid. Thank you for creating this masterpiece
The beat he drops at 3:09 is sooooooooooooooooooo nasty. I remember watching this on DVD back in the day and my head exploded when I heard it.
4:11 "beats to throw away", drops sick banger.
Sorry. No one brings it close like these dudes. Unsung. Destroyers. Pure.
This album is classic and underrated!
criminally underrated!
Best video I've watched in a long time
Great album to listen to in the winter , fits perefect , one of my favorite albums.
This is simply wonderful.
The good old days. Making me feel old. I was in high school when this dropped.
The birth of the most influential album man kind has ever heard.
3:12-3:19 • 3:25 • 3:33 • 3:40 •
3:48 He’s unconsciously talking in the rhythm of the beat.
October 2023, the start of this video couldn't be more on point
Waiting 'til I can get the quad Vinyl set of The Cold Vein. Shit's art.
Love this and all involved. Had the pleasure of seeing most of them live and even meeting them. Peace and love
I first heard Iron Galaxy on Tony Hawks Underground and it always struck me. Such a classic record.
same! then years later in high school i would eventually go and listen to the whole album. still is one of my favorites to this day. the production is bonkers
go wings btw!
Awesome
Golden Age!
God I miss these days 😭😭😭😭😭😭 Bruh.. Chilling in the Stu kicking some freestyles with fire ass beats
Vast Aire hast the most unique voice of all time! Been a Def Jux fan since 2001.
cold vein hits hard
My favorite underground ever
Amazing moment in time
That Jaco sample on Pigeon is so good
Portrait of Tracy if I can pick it out right? Never clued into that before! cheerS
@@constancemerryweather525 you are correct
Lol, vast talks exactly like he raps...i always thought his cadence was intentionally done for effect
cannibal ox September 24 2015 @ the pyramid scheme. Grand Rapids Michigan.... I can't wait. its gonna be great!!!!!
+Felicia Mumper Did you go to the show. I went to their show in ATL last night. It was bittersweet. Wasn't really a lot of people. It felt odd not having the DefJux machine behind them.
Doclorian Rin yeah I went. Same thing... hardley any one there maybe 40 heads. They did bring poison pen and double ab tho.
Felicia Mumper Yo. Double AB is a fucking BEAST.
Doclorian Rin yeah he was great. He spit some spoken word style poetry that was great
4:38 "where i come from" and then the beat drops ...wow. and from that line to 6:15 is an intro to a monolgue for an actor on a stage imho. "money is everything" is the end of the intro. and where the monolgue starts (yet to be written). call it: 24 hrs is like...
such a timeless album. the cream of the crop
Aesop is soooooo sick!
Anybody know what song Cryptic used that beat that Vast wanted?
Freestyle with C Rayz, Aesop and Vast Air?? 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Crazy
I don't remember how, but i remember stumbling across this video a long ass time ago. This was before I knew who any of these dudes were
El P is that guy... legendary ACE in the HOLE
13:25 the ig asap rock
thank you for your inspiration
3.33 - 3.34
When did they give him the beat > loop
11:25 onward - hoooooly shit...... Is there any more???
too much of life is mood
put on that other beat yo
Thank you.
calling gta 3 "incredibly realistic carnage" is one of the best time capsules you could have made in the early 2000s
I've probably watched this video twenty times over the years
Vast talking and Vast rapping sounds the exact same lmao
At 9:24 is that DJ abilities??
Alec Lieber , nice catch me.
Instrumental ID at 2:20?
The beat at 2:35
Fcking great album
Lol, I feel his pain. I go through this shit with my team. It's all love.
The day Cold Vein got pulled from streams, SA froze...! My vasity years are in those 15 chapters
Abilities, aesop and el p playing GTA3... crazy
It’s crazy how something we make that we think is trash, a rapper will love it. Also, Seeing the bbl computer monitor is crazy in 2023. 😂
Tony Hawk's UnderGround!!
this is so historical holy shit
does anyone know who made the cover art?
Freestyles at 11:30 were great.
18 years later I need to know.....did Cryptic One ever use that shit? I searched for a while for it.
dude I've never been able to find anything all these years later
I actually asked Cryptic on IG and he said he never finished it lol
i sent him an email and he pointed me in the right direction, the beat was uploaded on soundcloud some years back. " THE INFAMOUS DEF JUX THROWAWAY (feat Vastaire OR Crypticone) " uploaded by thePARADOXICALstate
the whole opening minute is me on a daily basis
What did they produce their beats on?? Just that PC? What Software?
Couldn't be more right El-P
Damn...
When you see me shine light 💡
in the coldest winters we thought husky
Bazooka Tooth!!
When was this made?
best rap album ever
illmatic
@@JonathanPereiraDaFranca nahhh sorry
It's up there for me with Liquid Swords, Madvillainy and Deltron 3030
What the fuck that's aesop rock
You could buy Uzis even easier back in the day dude. If anything it's harder to buy guns now regardless of the internet. Come on El-P!!
Def Jux forever. Apocalypse everyday I awake. Rock that gasmask. I've always loved how I disagree with half the shit he says yet agree with the other half.
he is talking about back in the day. this was recorded back in the day
C-Rayz Walls killed that shit
So this guys casually recording (imo) the best hiphop underground album.
That 9x9 remix beat is so stupid. Ish bangs so hard.
THE DAY IS LONG , WHEN YOUR POOR!!! 🤣😂🤣😂SAD BUT VERY REALISTIC!
I agree with shane. Its shameful and filled with sorrow but it fit the mold of todays times. Its important to realize the strategy of group encouragement even without the medicine. 20 years, who thunk it up? Lol
I didn't take away a lot from this.
His talking voice is VERY KRS ONE!
The making of Run the Jewels
This was long before rtj. This was pure hip-hop.
They bisexuals
Where you get that from?
@@The_Word_Is_The_Way He has a guilty conscience
Talking about GTA III
