You know a situation is bad when Aes doesn't have the words
Damn.
Aesop’s one of my fav lyricists. So many great artists on the Rhymesayers label.
Definitely need to check out more.
Dang yes. Atmosphere, Grieves and of course, the legend MF DOOM ❤
Aesop is a true hip hop lyricist. He is known for using a huge variety of words within his tracks. A very smart writer
Just recorded a reaction to Rings. Amazing writing once again. That video should go up by tomorrow.
I've been listening to Aesop Rock since I was 18 and I'm 39 now. He's one of the best. Check out the albums Labor Days, Float, Bazooka Tooth, Skelethon, The Impossible Kid, None Shall Pass, Spirit World Fieldguide, Integrated Tech Solutions, etc.
Definitely want to explore more. Have 1 more reaction recorded
Thumbs up for Aesop reactions always. This whole album is front to back fire. His consistency, after more than 25 years in the hip-hop game, is scary.
Definitely need to dive into some of his music.
You just opened pandora's box. Welcome to the greatest writer of our time. This is probably his most direct song as it's a story telling song but if you really want you brain to explode check out his other stuff.. His older stuff is very complex but a lot of his newer stuff is too. He's def in the conversation of best lyricist of all time. I'll give you two examples "Oxygen" and "Rings" those two will blow your mind and are on opposite sides of his writing styles. He literally even does nursery rhymes lol.
Definitely want to check out more. Thanks for the recommendations!
@@SaeedReacts. Absolutely. Just a heads up a lot of stuff takes multiple listens to get a broad grasp on it. So if it moves quick and you miss a lot, it's not just you. haha. I still find stuff from songs I've been listening to for 20 years.
Your in for some thought bending and comprehensive rabbit holes. Benn doing the dig for 20 years.......GOOD LUCK BUDDY.. ... AND IM OUT.
LOVE Aesop!! Mystery Fish, Rings, Gopher Guts, Kirby, None Shall Pass, Blood Sandwich, Battery, Daylight, Take Me to the Basement, Shrunk, Cycles to Gehenna, Dog at the Door, Jumping Coffin, Long-legged Larry, Dog at the Door, Mindful Solutionism, Black Snow, 100 Feet Tall.. The list goes on. 🙃
Rhymesayers is GREAT; if you haven't checked out Prof's music, I urge you to do so !! ❤
Thanks for the recommendations. Will add them to my list. Have a great day!
Great list!
KYANITE TOOTHPICK IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES ON THE ALBUM
Tune in, how's my driving, drivers start dialing, I drive like a man who dies trying.
My son is a fan of Aesop. Whenever he comes over to visit with us old parents, he will pull one up on my computer to have me look at it. He says he's a rapper that is very lyrical and writes lots of stuff. You should use lyric videos of Aesop or you can't keep up. :) I am not a fan of his music, but his words are interesting, sort of. His video of his cat Kirby is pretty funny. Playing with his cat Kirby using a puppet and kitten is adorable. :D
Love lyrical rap. Have been a fan for 20 years. Incredible that i never heard Aesop Rock.
Check out “Pigeonometry” from the same album
Will add that one to my list. Thanks!
@@SaeedReacts. Aesop’s catalogue is long. Some of his tracks are straight forward stories like the one you just did and some are almost incomprehensible on the first listen. He writes like he’s drawing a comic book, sometimes very heavy on symbolism & metaphors. A great example of this would be “Supercell”
@@brianhansen6189”die already” 😢
He can’t shake his baptism
You sir have won me over in a few minutes..keep it up homie.
Thanks, man! Appreciate it.
THIS A GREAT STORY HOWEVER THERE ARE PLENTY SONGS THAT EXIBIT HIS SKILLS.
Will explore more!
This guy is the best story teller in rap. If you don't believe me, check out Ruby '81. Masterpiece.
That one is on my list. Looking forward to it.
This is a more straight forward lyrically song for Aes, but you keeping up so well for a first listen is impressive. Great reaction to a great song. Hope to see more
Thanks so much! Definitely needs multiple listens. Will check out more.
If you want a fun AES track, check out Long Legged Larry (think Dr. Seuss rap) or Kirby (about his cat). If you want a lyrical machine gun, try Gauze. If you want something clean (no curse words) with a huge variety of rhyme schemes, check out Jumping Coffin. Welcome to the AES rabbit hole
Thanks for these recommendations! Just recorded a reaction to Rings. That one should go up tomorrow.
The drum beat on Gauze is technically a masterpiece
Juxtaposed against his aggressive speed and ever changing flow, it’s like battle of the drummers between AES and the drums
It's really disgusting that in the richest country in the world, we cannot look after those who need help the most, especially since Americans look down on '3rd world countries' that have much smaller homeless populations. Last year, in 2023, California alone had around 171,000 unsheltered people, BUT we had over 1.2 million homes sitting empty because some Ma & Pa landlords and more Investment Firms wouldn't generate profit. We need to move away from the recent trend in commodifying what should be a human right to shelter.
The majority of homeless in the US aren't like Aggressive Steven, most are just priced out of even the rental market, and sleep in their cars or couch surf while maintaining a 9-5 and without being 'criminals'. Only after long periods of living outdoors, and without access to necessities do some turn to drugs to escape the realities of their situation.
Agreed
some turn to drugs? No... 95% of the homelessness is BC of *drugs* and mental illness, not the lack of charity from the government. See “Matt Walsh” “The truth behind homelessness”
@@TraditionalHippie Matt Walsh the hilarious actor/comedian? or Matt "I advocate for Ethno-Nationalism and defend white nationalists" Walsh?
@@GoodDocGonzo I like Upright Citizens Brigade and Matt Walsh the Catholic conservative. I see you'd rather smear someone than engage in the argument. The fact that you believe he is racist is not only gravely mistaken, but kinda pitiful. But that would make sense being that you have your head in the sand on homelessness. “Some turn to drugs” 😳🤪"they have a 9-5!" lol
edit* Sam Seder???? holy shit he has an actual audience. i thought the only reason he's able to continue to make content is bc of the obvious marching orders he takes. He obviously disingenuously approaches all the arguments he makes
Appreciated the Aes reaction and respect to you buddy for kickin your addiction. I know that’s a lifelong battle and I wish you the best with that.
Aes is goated amongst us hiphop heads who really appreciate lyricism.
Two songs that come to mind that are dense but easily digestible are “Rings” which he has an actual video for and “No City” which may only be a lyric video. There are many more as he’s been around since the mid-late 90’s.
Thanks again for the video
Thanks! Appreciate it!
I heard his name over the years, no idea why i never checked out his music. Will definitely listen to more. Thanks for the recommendations.
