El-P was always the perfect artist to make a song for CyberPunk 2077, he has so many songs that perfectly capture the retrowave future punk vibe. I love it.
I've known of El P for over a decade. Maybe two. I had this album downloaded for who knows how long and I finally heard this song last night. Oh my God
@@redjakOfficialI’ll sleep when you’re dead is genuinely one of my favourite album oat, the concepts and production are so otherworldly I don’t think many albums can compete 0:05
El-P play big role in my training lol... this music is a big energy boost love to workout on it. The things he touch becomes a gold he is legendary no doubt
EL-P is talented, creative and performative since it gives time of Company Flow. Since the mid-90s he 'shoots' rhymes and beats with skills of a true revolutionary artist. I wish you long life ..... Inspiration & Admiration!
Fantastic song, great video, and amazing all around performance aside, there's something about El's face at the end when fleeing with Killums that socks me right in the gut.
Dude is a musical genius. i'm pretty sure theres a lot of artists who make music for a living that haven't "blown up" or never will. If El was mainstream people would be more aware thats the reason hes not mainstream is because people aren't.
The dopest MCs all were interviewed up in the books named *HOW TO RAP* and *HOW TO RAP 2*. Everybody from Mobb Deep to Hieroglyphics to Pharcyde, to Kool G Rap, Chuck D, Black Moon, and Big Daddy Kane were interviewed, and others.
I agree with you. The douchiness I'm talking about comes from people who use art for their own self-interest rather than appreciating it as it was intended. Nobody writes a book or creates an album for people to name drop just to let others know they have good taste. The artist wasn't making a statement about how cool your are so don't pervert his/her message for your own self-interest.
Can't believe I never heard of el p until a few years ago. Purest of MC, very texturized and clever figures of speech. Know these days the difference between rhymes and absolute expression.
So cool what El-P did with this video. He invited any new yorker to email him and try to get in, and included 50 of them in it. Wish I was one of those 50!
Yes! The 2 most slept on artists in hip hop with Aesop rock coming in for a close third. Desire and ptsd are perfect albums. And El-p might be the best producer in the game.
People call hate against a rapper who dares to speak truth but will worship a pop idol. Pop culture is disgusting. At least that is what I got from this video
I will give any and all types of music a chance but i think to listen to this I'd have to be in the right mood. I like the sound and the way its composed. it all mixes together easily
I love how so many "acts" have their 15 mins and are then found, floating face down in the mainstream. I think that his (relative) lack of commercial success is what saved el-p from that fate-
Yeah I read about that I'm kind of new to EL-P but hes dope. I loved his production in Killer Mikes R.A.P Music. I'm going to see him and Killer Mike live next month!
In all seriousness, all bullshit aside, all hyperbolic exaggerations omitted...I think it is a sound assessment that El-P is the greatest Hip-Hop artist of all time. Not necessarily the greatest lyricist. Not necessarily the greatest producer, either. But, all things considered, there aren't really any MCs that I can think of that can really compete as an artist. From his near-flawless discography to his ruthless and head-spinning lyricism to his flat-out masterful production, El-P is the complete package on every front. He could very well be the greatest that Hip-Hop has ever given us.
I almost agree. i'm a white male, 36 years old, from australia so no doubt my opinion will get shit on, EL-P almost has it on WU..ALMOST. It's getting very tight, especially now with EL killing it with Mike on Run. These guys have a unique opportunity to take over right now as hip hops behemoth. I think they can accomplish something no other hiphop duo have done since Eric B & Rakim...a unique sound nobody EVER can fuck with
el-p has been famous in hiphop since funcrusher.. did you hear what he did on cold vein? dont hate just pass your time the best way you know how. el-p deserves all the recognition possible for his art.
El p is a mad genius. I love his videos, they're always twisted and dark yet are so creative. Its a shame that grwat artists like el, atmosphere, doomtree arent more recognized for their talent but maybe its a goid thing because if some shitty mainstream kabel fers them they'll get sensored and will make shitty music like most of mainstream is now. Underground for life
You know I get down, I'm a downer, heart pounder, LOLin', smelling like Sarin Felony forecast: El is, dressed to the nines like a target, dressed like a bullseye for a blind archer Heart of a piranha, swimming where the blood chums water Lark in the darkness watching, I got it this, boombox burner boy hot shit Burn like an LA sunset, colorful, toxic, snuff stuff, deadly and erotic Walk like a man not a product, run like a strumpet, talk to the hand sock puppet Look at them sky write: "fuck it, we heart nothin', we don't have a tear for your bucket", life's but a pageant, that ain't on no deep shit, try to pull the curtain back crack goes police whip Here come the stage mums, dress your little whores to display them, cutting through my brain like a ray gun Telling you these fuckers are shameless, Obama to Reagan, look at how they bent to their training Why would I be angered, not when I can chemically hang glide, angle, face dive mangled, anguish Notice I maraud odd language, roll a joint Hit a fraud god 'till he vanquish, bonus point [Hook]: I'm thrown With all this chrome and You sound like you're drowning Drown drown drown drown Get down, stay down [Verse 2]: You know I get bent I'm a Bender, Futura-Ra-ma-Dom-inant gene gone bad and Passed along to my blood stream pumping madness, pour a little hell down hatch it's Standard practice how to detach from a white noise planet with a dispatch straight from command to throw haymaker plus land it, never take a win for granted Remember the pitch that I sang with, to anoint masses, before, mass graves hatch like magic, everybody bows to the bastards, anthem acid dispatchers get rancid, fact of the matter I graph and track hapless, live in a mirage its hard to not crack kid Whats that? pass it Wanna watch? I'mma smoke till I'm bat shit Choke like a champion
As much as I enjoy RTJ, I think a new El-p solo album is long overdue.
I was about to post the same comment.
2002, 2007, 2012... 2017 it is
tehpeasant 2017 is rtj3 due and I can't imagine el's solo album in 2017 cuz he takes his time to make a masterpiece.
Fantastic Damage is as good as it ever will get.
Johan Sköld Yep FanDam is better than Cold Vein
El-P was always the perfect artist to make a song for CyberPunk 2077, he has so many songs that perfectly capture the retrowave future punk vibe.
I love it.
I’ve came back to this song over and over for 10 years
This song is ridiculously underrated.
True dat!
I hate that I just heard it this year, even though I’ve loved El-P since before this song came out
El-P is the man. Been a fan since I heard "Funcrusher Plus" back in '98, glad to see him get his due. Definitely one of my favorite artists.
El-P one of the best to ever do it
Mozart with the production, Shakespear with the pen
Incredible
you bugging 👎
Man this is such a well-composed song everything about it is so perfect
I swear, I love this record more and more with each listen.
+Ranger Kasdorf
Same here, so many feels.
Same and I hated it at first
Me too bruh , cheers!
$4 vic especially, its such a ride that song
I've known of El P for over a decade. Maybe two. I had this album downloaded for who knows how long and I finally heard this song last night. Oh my God
Cancer for Cure and I'll sleep when you're dead are masterpieces, slept upon by many.Fantastic damage also, maybe a bit more dated, but powerful too.
@@redjakOfficial I'll check those out! I definitely know fantastic damage .thanks !!
@@redjakOfficialI’ll sleep when you’re dead is genuinely one of my favourite album oat, the concepts and production are so otherworldly I don’t think many albums can compete 0:05

it's just occurred to me that I've been listening to el-p for about 18 years...i think I must love him.
I have been listening to him since High School and I am 36 now!
The subtle flash of the muppet hand attached to the drum sticks gets me every time. Classic.
I don't think you get enough credit. I'm grateful for your art Sir. SLAYS ❤😊
always a favorite... that simplistic beat... his vocal cadence... the whole theme.. one of my all time favorite songs hands down.
What an amazing album,single, video... Just fucken wow
John lewis yep
I don't think I'll ever fail to laugh when you see El running with an injured Killums out of the club. That face cracks me up so badly.
+Zack Perry Honestly, it strikes a dark chord inside me and makes me sad as fuck. Like holding my dying dog in my arms as it passes away.
This is becoming one of my favorite songs.
Got completely smashed and found this on my liked list a few days later,.. High Five!!! 🖐
this is probably my favorite hip-hop song of all time. perfect video, too.
EL-P is talented, creative and performative since it gives time of Company Flow.
Since the mid-90s he 'shoots' rhymes and beats with skills of a true revolutionary artist.
I wish you long life .....
Inspiration & Admiration!
This is exactly the kind of hiphop we all need.
Fantastic song, great video, and amazing all around performance aside, there's something about El's face at the end when fleeing with Killums that socks me right in the gut.
This is such a fantastic song. Sounds so nice in my car
Dude is a musical genius. i'm pretty sure theres a lot of artists who make music for a living that haven't "blown up" or never will.
If El was mainstream people would be more aware
thats the reason hes not mainstream is because
people aren't.

No one can topple El-Producto.. Beast of an album.
One of the greatest rap songs, ever. Criminally underrated!
Commenters should keep it real..
El for life! Mad respect from canada.
Perhaps one of the most inspiring beats to touch ears in a decade. Just makes me want to GO! El-p bends minds. Thank you for this.
Holy Fuck, that was amazing he always kills me with his lyrics. What a super talented dude!
EL-P is the best, never disappoints only makes me appreciate him more.
Can't believe I never heard of el p until a few years ago. Purest of MC, very texturized and clever figures of speech. Know these days the difference between rhymes and absolute expression.
So cool what El-P did with this video. He invited any new yorker to email him and try to get in, and included 50 of them in it. Wish I was one of those 50!
O my god those faces are perfect! El P always keep my head spinning, that's why he's one of my favorites!
BIG thumbs up to this song and music video.
This guy and Pharoahe Monche are the best MC's ever, both stand for something real
Yes! The 2 most slept on artists in hip hop with Aesop rock coming in for a close third. Desire and ptsd are perfect albums. And El-p might be the best producer in the game.
This video encapsulates all the mainstream music fans perfectly...Little prom queens n such.
GREAT VID AND DOPE LYRICAL FLOW, EL...
People call hate against a rapper who dares to speak truth but will worship a pop idol. Pop culture is disgusting.
At least that is what I got from this video
El Producto. Flawless Victory.
EL-P RIDES HIS BEATS AT EASE.
I love this song, the girl that bites Mr. Killums eye out is hella cute too.
i love RTJ. But no doubt that this is the DOPEST thing that El-P ever made
Fernando César I think you're right.
Fernando César check out smithereens👌💯
Man have you even fucking heard El-p - TOJ. Gonna blow your head off
Personally I like $4Vic more but this is really really close.
Timothy Saccenti and El-P hit again! Fantastici!
If cool is as defined by effortless likeability EL-P might be the coolest person to ever live.
This is the best hip-hop album of 2012.
I will give any and all types of music a chance but i think to listen to this I'd have to be in the right mood. I like the sound and the way its composed. it all mixes together easily
I love how so many "acts" have their 15 mins and are then found, floating face down in the mainstream. I think that his (relative) lack of commercial success is what saved el-p from that fate-
Saw him in Birmingham UK last year for the second time. Nice.
Yeah I read about that I'm kind of new to EL-P but hes dope. I loved his production in Killer Mikes R.A.P Music. I'm going to see him and Killer Mike live next month!
EL-P is the G.O.A.T I don't care what anyone says.
El-P speaks to my SOUL
Yep. Still great.
Its hard to explain when I first heard this song it felt different than any other song I've experienced idk why...
El P's the MAN ! Check out his older Company Flow stuff as well....
El-p is fucking sick
yay. everybody all quiet now. back to the music.
dope video, had no idea what it was gonna look like.. ill be bumping this album for a long time, probably in the far future
Holy shit. That was amazing. Always killing it
super duper fresh
El-P ahead of his time, been doin' it on another level from jump Word! Peace Respect!

word man, i feel very similarly.
Well said.
I almost agree. i'm a white male, 36 years old, from australia so no doubt my opinion will get shit on, EL-P almost has it on WU..ALMOST. It's getting very tight, especially now with EL killing it with Mike on Run. These guys have a unique opportunity to take over right now as hip hops behemoth. I think they can accomplish something no other hiphop duo have done since Eric B & Rakim...a unique sound nobody EVER can fuck with
***** But, as far as skill goes, is Wu half as lyrical or as technical as El-P?
hotpockets222 Maybe a better lyricist, but every other category, El-P has him beat. And, I love Aesop Rock.
Ths is truly amazng, El-P deserves the praise.
I bit out Killem's eye and I aint never gonna spit it out!!!
Was I stoned during this shoot? maaaaaaybe :]
Ah EL-P..............again with a dope ass hit!
We need a new El-P solo album.
funny funny sheeeeit... can't wait to see what's next in store for Killums
Got to love when el goes hard. Need to find the flosstradamus track he murders on nxt
We dnt hv ah tear 4 ur bucket...luv it!!! Lol
I like how he references my fav RTJ song
this is sick, liking the creativity
El-p, you make me happy
El-p is a true legend
Very creative. 5 Stars.*****
Lets just say best hip hop show ive even been to, probably best show period
burn like an LA sunset-
colorful:
toxic.
slap me, SLAP ME
I miss the madness EL-P had. RTJ is great. I need this back
awesome visuals..
Genius. OMG genius.
it IS the best track on the album IMO.. greetings from germany, neighbour :D
Oh hail no
el-p has been famous in hiphop since funcrusher.. did you hear what he did on cold vein? dont hate just pass your time the best way you know how. el-p deserves all the recognition possible for his art.
Beyond his time
Dope ish!!!
El p is a mad genius. I love his videos, they're always twisted and dark yet are so creative. Its a shame that grwat artists like el, atmosphere, doomtree arent more recognized for their talent but maybe its a goid thing because if some shitty mainstream kabel fers them they'll get sensored and will make shitty music like most of mainstream is now.

So good.
2:55 WHat I've always loved about El is how funny he can be at the same time as being serious
This song just froze my brain, sick !
This song is the champion.
Mr. P made a fine recording. I new Larry in high school. Nice kid.
You know I get down, I'm a downer, heart pounder, LOLin', smelling like Sarin
Felony forecast: El is, dressed to the nines like a target, dressed like a bullseye for a blind archer
Heart of a piranha, swimming where the blood chums water
Lark in the darkness watching, I got it this, boombox burner boy hot shit
Burn like an LA sunset, colorful, toxic, snuff stuff, deadly and erotic
Walk like a man not a product, run like a strumpet, talk to the hand sock puppet
Look at them sky write: "fuck it, we heart nothin', we don't have a tear for your bucket", life's but a pageant, that ain't on no deep shit, try to pull the curtain back crack goes police whip
Here come the stage mums, dress your little whores to display them, cutting through my brain like a ray gun
Telling you these fuckers are shameless, Obama to Reagan, look at how they bent to their training
Why would I be angered, not when I can chemically hang glide, angle, face dive mangled, anguish
Notice I maraud odd language, roll a joint
Hit a fraud god 'till he vanquish, bonus point
[Hook]:
I'm thrown
With all this chrome and
You sound like you're drowning
Drown drown drown drown
Get down, stay down
[Verse 2]:
You know I get bent I'm a Bender, Futura-Ra-ma-Dom-inant gene gone bad and
Passed along to my blood stream pumping madness, pour a little hell down hatch it's
Standard practice how to detach from a white noise planet with a dispatch straight from command to throw haymaker plus land it, never take a win for granted
Remember the pitch that I sang with, to anoint masses, before, mass graves hatch like magic, everybody bows to the bastards, anthem acid dispatchers get rancid, fact of the matter I graph and track hapless, live in a mirage its hard to not crack kid
Whats that? pass it
Wanna watch? I'mma smoke till I'm bat shit
Choke like a champion
Incredible
Wow..
Lol ridiculous
You are dope!
@@liljuve13 Why?
This is too dope
Glad to add another el-p to my collection
So fucken talented...I'm in ahhhhhhhhhh
Why is this not over a Milly!!!!
The message honestly scares me because its true.
fyi el-p gets his lyrics in personal letters from jesus christ. GODLY
Brilliant.
this song makes me feel better
preach on! El-P's "Master" status has been confirmed and re-confirmed for good measure.
great song and video.
This is so dope.
