To be fair the word clout has always been a hip-hop word. Big L used it back in the 90s. But ya STEEZ was still ahead of his time lyrically and spiritually
I just wanna know what he meant by "you heard that Gucci Gucci song" anyone know what song he's talking about bc I'm certain he didnt mean pump but I feel like I remember a song some like that
I heard it's cold outside, but you can't migrate till you learn how to flyyyy... looking at the birds in the sky, was this world really worth when we die?

from an unstable familiy of alkaline metals hitting prime time like channel 5 specials and i never handled rock like palestian rebels with pebbels prolly best spit i ever heard
HOLY SHIT I JUST REALISED SOMETHING "...And the fans need at least a week's worth of words, so kirk keep the beats running//Miles per hour (miles prower (tails from sonic)) working on my Genesis (Sega Genesis and also the Genesis in Christianity which means (Steez's) 'beginning'), its Penny Arcade (Amusement Centre for entertainment and I think they make comics), penmanship (writing by hand)" There are so many bars that go over my head 9 years later. Man had unlimited potential Rest in Peace
The last child not the least of the weak ones, strong minded I got a green thumb the fam gotta eat son, and the fans need atleast a weeks worth of words so kirk keep the beats running." I love his flow so much. RIP STEEZ
“Eye heard it cold outside but you can’t migrate til you learn how to fly” that line is hard asf yo 🔥 that’s some food for thought right there. Happy cday steelo! #longlivecapitalsteez #freekingcapital
R.I.P 2 a young wise man with good leadership & wisdom knowledge of what wats was really going on in the real world at a young age smh it makes me tear up a little to lost a young solider tht was leading a small army with his voice and views of wat was truly goin on around U.S!!!I SALUTE!To a young solider tht deliver us with the true power of word play n knowledge God bless#1
kingnitroluna62897 he changed because of what happened with steez and he said he would never go back to how he was on 1999. but change can be good and the change the joey has made is sick asf in my opinion. he still has the 90's feel but he has lyrically improved and and he has matured a lot.
Have any of u ever noticed That lil sniff b4 he said god armed with the strong army? I love u Steeze! RIP 2 Courtney(Jamal) Dewar Jr and Daniel Dumile the 2 best ever MCs! My 2 favorites anyway
[Interesting Bits:] 1.) "So therefore these critics just gone press me." Double entendre! -a. 'So therefore these critics just gone press me.' (press him with questions about his anarchist tendencies) -b. 'So therefore these critics just gonna me.' To oppress, means to use power to control someone... Press is also a term for media, the people who criticize musicians. In this case, Capital STEEZ about his wolfsangel. (the 47 swastika looking symbol) 2.) "This the first time I'ma let it out, 93 'til the death of me, I’m showing what I’ma'bout." A shout out to the next track on AmeriKKKAn Korruption “Infinity and Beyond”, and the 1993 album and song 93 ‘til Infinity by Souls of Mischief. 3.) "They can't block me out, sun." It’s impossible to stop him just like the rising of the sun everyday. The sun may not always be visible, but you always feel the heat/ sun rays. Could also be an entendre of sun/son. 4.) "Put me in a box and get out-done." Could be a challenge of thinking outside the “box” so putting him in it will only cause him to win, however a double entendre could be a boxing ring, and if you put Courtney in there his opponent will lose. 5.) "So assuming that I'm arrogant. I broke through the half of it. I break down where I got my clout from." Is a contradiction. Arrogant rappers usually rap about gangster life and all. He's saying he got half way past that with his lyrics. And for the other half of people he shows them where he got his clout from. Clout is. “A heavy blow with the hand or a hard object”. (I.E. Bats, Brass Knuckles, His lines... Et cetera...) 6.) "The last child, not the least of the weak ones." Capital STEEZ has an older sister named Jamelia, she's the one who nicknamed Courtney 'Jamal', which is obviously the male version of Jamelia. As for any others, I don't believe so, though in Today or Cant Explain he mentions something about his aunts and they're children all living in section 8. And describes life there in great detail so maybe he spent alot of time there at one point. I'm not sure. 7.) STEEZ is making another double entendre. He refers to someone who has a green thumb; a natural talent for growing plants, 'the fam gotta eat somethin'.' but at the same time he was also the one who always had the green thumb for marijuana and he was the one who basically supplied his group. 'the fam gotta eat somethin'.' Marijuana makes you hungry. 8.) "And the fans need at least a week's worth of words so Kirk keep the beats running -- miles per hour. Working on my genesis, it's Penny Arcade penmanship." ' Keep the beat running' So miles per hour is a measurement. Play on words, keep the beat running in miles per hour. In addition the pronunciation comes off as “Miles Prower,” the true name of Tails from the Sonic series created by Sega, who made the Genesis console, tying in to the next line. Penny Arcade is a webcomic about video games and of course the Sega Genesis was a video game console of yesteryear. Could all be just coincidence, likely isn't though. 9.) "Far-side zombie spark trees." Reference to Flatbush Zombies, a group in Beast Coast and personal friends to Jamal. 'Beast Coast' is a movement, although the term has been used to refer to the East Coast for several years previously (as a response to the claim that "the West Coast is the best coast"), since 2012 "Beast Coast" has emerged as a way to refer to the new wave of fresh, young, often experimental, underground hip-hop artists gaining prominence in New York. Some of the most notable "Beast Coast" artists are the Pro Era collective, the Underachievers and Flatbush Zombies. 10.) "I heard it's cold outside. But you can't migrate ti'll you learn how to fly!" Simple one but, birds migrate when it's cold. 11.) "Looking at the birds in the sky." This may be a reference from Jamal's own song Cab Fare Where he says “They still can’t explain why birds fly” He's trying to find a metaphorical meaning as to why they migrate. 12.) "What's this world really worth when we die?" Humans are destroying earth, an example would be global warming, extinction, ourselves. In some places I've seen people write 'Was this world really when we die?' Which could add a second meaning, was it really worth saving Humans. Definitely a powerful question to ask. 13.) "Am I too young to question that?" Courtney E. Dewar or Capital STEEZ committed suicide early December 24, 2012. On the night of December 23, 2012, he made his way to the rooftop of the Cinematic Music Group headquarters in Manhattan’s Flatiron District, where he texted a few of his closest friends to tell them that he loved them, and at exactly 11:59 PM, posted a tweet saying, "The end." He allegedly jumped off the rooftop of the Cinematic Music Group building later that night. He was 19. If you know of a fact I missed leave a reply. I'll add it to the list and credit you.
Very nice but u missed what most people do unless ur Jamaican lol but i could be reaching “Tryna get some drug money with my RAW presidents” people dont realize that raw is a brand of rolling paper for weed which is why he said drug money. “Spark trees, like Marley lost in a Safari/Safaree” so this is a triple entendre because safaree is Jamaican just like Bob Marley and and this part could be a reach but his said lost in a safaree and safaree is from Brooklyn NY and so was STEEZ so he could be saying he was lost in the place he was from. Also spark trees refers to weed which Bob Marley smoked a lot and Safari’s have lots of trees “Mom told me to foresee/4c” more play on words because 4c is a hair type that most black people had including Bob Marley. Could also be the fact that steez like to see the future while astro projecting “You cant migrate like you learn how to fly” Pretty sure he is referring to cj fly here who is also Jamaican so he is keeping on the Jamaican theme here All in all STEEZ was amazing
Even the title is clever .. Uno Hype is HYPE and Cap is the BEAST = HYPE/BEAST and the whole song speaks on them being underrated and literally starting a new era of rap in their city 🤷🏿♂️
listened to this song about 4 months ago and said I need an instrumental, 4 months later...I honestly would pay for this beat, we need to make it happen.

I have no idea why this video only has like 120 views, this is light-years ahead of what most rappers are putting out nowadays.
I can't explain how good this fuckin song is!!!
Does anyone think Capital Steez is better than Joey Badass?
He is. That's like his ultimate influence.
I Like How Joey Was On 1999. He Started Changing His Style and Flow And I Kind Of Lost Interest
kingnitroluna62897 he changed because of what happened with steez and he said he would never go back to how he was on 1999. but change can be good and the change the joey has made is sick asf in my opinion. he still has the 90's feel but he has lyrically improved and and he has matured a lot.

Of course steez is better than joey
