I love what these young brothers are doing its not just the music but also showing how you can be yourself and not what the industry wants you to be. Positive vibes and consciousness. Hip Hop at its finest.
Ok, so I'm an old head and appreciate CC on such a deep level right now. It's not just the bars. It's the authenticity, the depth to which they make you think. It's the inspiration to think you can put in the work to the point of obsession and be the best version of yourself. I've seen a bunch of freestyles, the interview with Talib Kweli, and now this. Coast Contra really got me feeling some kind of way right now.
Yalls energy and the frequencies that yall vibe at are something the whole hiphop culture been needing for a long time. Shit... the whole world been needing it for real.
Y’all the greatest group I ever heard in my life. Every song is a breath of fresh air. I feel like I’m cleansing my ears of the bs I’ve been hearing I prey y’all never stop.
Man these young men with wisdom that transcends age. I'm already tellin' anyone who will listen that we need to appreciate that we are in the midst of the greatest new thing to 'happen to hip-hop in a very long time' and that could stretch to 'happen to hip-hop ever'!!! Then put their positive vibe, intelligence, humility, and just plain mf'ing likeability on top of that incomparable talent: "Didn't I Tell You!" but momma wore dat ass out! I ain't ashamed, I love these dudes!!!!
I really appreciate true artists that can still show that authenticity in the midst of fame. I pray y’all can stick together like brothers through thick and thin cuz at the end of the day, family and love is all that matters. I know we can be distracted by the shiny and glamorous stuff, but we can also come back to why we do what we do. You guys have no idea the culture and integrity that you guys are cultivating and spreading in this generation. By Gods grace, keep doing what you’re doing. This generation needs this now more than ever.
You guys are the best group that ever existed. Wutang, D12 , Bad meets Evil, Slaughter house, Tribe the quest have nothing on you. You guys are messiahs
the people you keep around you might be the most important thing in life. having people who have that conviction to do more really propel you to greater heights
I knew there was something that felt right about this group. Keep God first, he created us out of Love and will always give you what you need. Stay blessed my dudes.
Yo, you guys embody the type of attitude that is needed in any endeavor. I know many groups that were monsters on the mic but didn’t have the right mindset, thusly they didn’t last. I rocks with CC heavy. You are the epitome of true hip hop. Keep bringing it raw. Coast!!!!
That's love. The brotherhood is real with these 4 dudes. I appreciate what COAST CONTRA represents & what they stand for. The bars and flows are endless. Real Hip-Hop is back!!! I:m from Philly. So this warms my heart with pride! Eric , keep telling your story. Taj & Ras, your bars make me rewind like 10 times. Rio is the Columbian Kingpin aka The Bridge! The bi-lingual flow flip-ups are masterful! Thank you brothers!! May God continue to bless and keep these brothers in His hedge of pretention from troubles seen and unseen. In Jesus name, Amen🙏
Y’all aren’t just inspiring you black men. I’m a young white guy from ATL that never really liked hip hop. You guys have helped and encouraged me. I have been through a lot in my life and Rio’s verse in Diet Coke freestyle truly spoke to me and my struggles. Thanks for being authentic and being a good influence instead of one that just leads to degradation of the soul. My prayer is that y’all can stay together, keep God center and stay humble. Peace
Them Coast Contra fellaz are my brothaz! I love how they keep it real and aren’t afraid to show their intellect and spirit strength! They will always be family to me! kindred spirits i tell you! I feel like I’m eating with the boyz too!
Myself? I don't need or ask for much. All I "NEED" is a place to lay my head and food in my belly. Why do I get up everyday? I know there are a hand full of people (my friends and family) who's life would be worse off without me in it. They are the reason I don't drown myself in a bottle or choke on the pipe. (insight from a middle age, middle class, white, nobody in the middle of nowhere!) Keep crushing it!
most importantly that you guys never forget that love that brought you together had a purpose. It was always God's plan and now the real test begins. Hold your heads up high, high enough to reach the sky, never let it be the end, and remember where the story began. together holding each other down, with words so heavy you could weigh them by a pound. That thunderous sound as the four of you laid it down. May you always remember the blood sweat and tears, them moments you turned fear into tears. Tears of hopes and dreams with hands to lend the saddest moments when you smiled and grin. Don't let life divide who you were, them times so deep it made hearts stir, forever holding onto the grace now that you found your own living space. Much love from a old G.
Dude… passing the Light, Gods… much appreciated… y’all are spark plugs on the fuel of inspiration… I missed you at Red Rocks, but you’ll be back to Heaven’s Coast (Colorado), and I’m be there ✌️ 🫀🏔
Roommates.. stick the paper... buy and buy... we shared a two bedroom.. 6 yrs so when came time to purchase it was easy and still had money saved... glad y'all understood the building of self
I have been looking at your content for a bit and I must say that I don't just love the music but appreciate the bond that you have with each other. This video shows in its short length the years of growth and progress that you guys have made it through as friends. I am excited to see how this series progresses and what other conversations you have to offer the world. Your music is tight and a breath of fresh air and so is the way y'all relate. Keep up the great work. 🙏🙏
Mad respect, not even bc they rap but the fact there love for each other is beautiful not only that there love for God is out of this world. I need friends(family) like that. Keeping each other accountable 🙏 it’s hard too be the only one around who’s a follower of Christ, I’m not perfect and I do stumble more than I would like too, I pray and ask God forgiveness and try my best too not make that same mistake. God bless each and everyone who see/don’t see this🙏
Biggest thing is men your always need to remember you are better today than we were yesterday..so with this said keep think positive and keep being faithful to your love to whatever it is and always remember to never forget where your roots started so you can stay humbled and never to forget how and what built you ...much love my dudes ...so to that let's celebrate for such a great achievement..
Hey Ras And Rio! I'm glad to see this more relaxed and intimate exchange. I hope you brother's will make this a regular segment on this channel, as it's so wholesome. After you guy's take a little time to recover from the rigors of touring, I'm looking forward to some more freestyle's. Until then, please continue to take very great care and remain safe❣️
This is amazing. Simply isn’t content out there like this. On some real talk, shout out to those real old videos of you reading As a Man Thinketh. It helped me on my journey
Been following y'all for 5 years now!!! I'm so happy & proud of y'all!!! Big thangs still 2 come!!! Ain't no doubt!!! Stay blessed!!! One luv from 🇷🇴România🇷🇴!!!
Shout out to the whole Coast crew from the Mississippi Gulf COAST! Please keep doing what y'all are doing...I start my day with a playlist of y'all's music..it gives me hope that real hip-hop is still alive and you guys are a breath of fresh air for the culture!
I know yall will probably never read this, but yall making me love hip hop again! 💯🙏🏿 thank you so much, and please, please please, stay together, stay 1 and don't ever lose yourselves. If you can do that, then you guys deserve the stars! 🎉💯💜🕎🔯♍️ Love and Peace/Ahayah and Shalom
Great to see you doing well. I love you guys. The dedication you have to devotion and honoring God is amazing. Keep up the good work. We are watching and praying for you. Stay close.
Damn dude... Those bars at the end had me teary-eyed. We all struggle to forgive ourselves at some point; its even harder to love all of you. Much love.
I guess I'm a few months late (as usual) to the party, but even though Im aware the odds of you seeing this and recognizing me at THIS point are next to nil... I feel it's important to let y'all know I'm here wit ya. Blessings, my Brothas! I'm over here doing the impossible in the dark with both hands tied behind my back, but soon enough (I hope & pray, believe & act in faith on) that which is being done in the darkness will be brought into the light. I see you now... you will see me then - this note will be my witness. Looking forward to that day we can get on that level. Until then, I carry in my heart that which I have been entrusted with. Thank you for clearing the way and staying true for everyone to see! - B
I love y'all! The fact that all y'all aren't afraid to show your true self! It speaks volumes and I take from that! Also just the homie vibes and you make each other better!! Keep it up! Much love
thank you so much for making this and I look forward to more videos that rap was fucking sick. I was tearing up to you two are amazing. I can't wait to see more with Taj and Eric

Shiiit well said! I am all in on these guys!
