Luis yah that's him enit bit his flow and lyrical content is one of the best out there imo the kid can Rap hard ...its that New York accent man smashes it every time 👊
At this point I hope Despot never releases a record. Honestly. As much as I'd love one, I honestly think it might tarnish his legacy. The guy is a legend and the pressure that would be on him is just out of this world.
I saw Despot open for Das Racist. I didnt even know who they were. I paid 15 to get in, watched him open and left. Im guess thats the only time I'll ever see him perform.
Despot. I just meant to thank you for making this album. As an Asperger's running Borderline personality Runner... I just feel like you need to do what you do,never be ashamed. Never be pressured z and thank you Dr m Australia for maybe being the closest American identity that I can empathise and relate to even though my understanding of how you Benis ephemeral...
I am automatically sold on any music video that features falconry. This is dope, I first heard this on that KEXP preformance with El P, Killer Mike and Motherfucker Jones.
It's a crime they don't have a proper opening title sequence using the lyrics version. Because the lyrics could just as easily come straight out of Bobby Axelrods mouth.
+GeminiEye1 I can listen to this track all day, what is Despot up to? is he seriously sending his fans on edge as he puts together album of a lifetime?
+GeminiEye1 I don't know who Jay Electronica is but you have me intrigued. god bless new music! I am old enough to remember when MTV opened minds. that was some shit we will never see again.
love this video, love Despot, and love Ratatat - thanks to Despot. Yeah, I'd lived under a stone, but crawled out from under and saw the light. Great stuff, guys. Thank you.
I first saw this guy perform over a decade ago. I instantly fell in love. Some MCs are so brilliant and charismatic that they don't need to be prolific. Quality over quantity. I'll gladly wait another decade for the "new album".
This is his actual moms, right? the one who still calls him Lechkey? And I'm assuming dad and brother? The projects-shaped ring is cold af no matter what tho.
Despot might be one of the weirdest and greatest rappers ever. He's in the same league with Doom and ODB....no. That's it. There's only three people in that league. Doom, ODB and Despot. There's no ranking though. They exist in a state of chaos. Edit: I shamefully missed out Biggie. My previous comment still stands though. Sickest flows ever. RIP Mr Smalls, Ol' Dirty and Doom.
I can’t believe they put this underground banger on Don’t Look Up between this and the Wu Tang Clan in the beginning the composer has good taste in hip hop
This whole, we will never see his album stuff would be really funny... If his music wasn't such a joy to listen to. I'm younger then despot so im just hoping on all those post-mortem albums to be dropped when I'm 80...I'll wait.
This song was miles ahead of its time.
Here 7 years later and this song still hits hard. Love it!
yeeeea
this is a clssic
El P….where you at god?
Maybe one day my children's children will enjoy the Despot album.
Maybe one day your grandchildren's children will enjoy the Despot album.
I have grandchildren, I hope there grandchildren are so blessed.
It would be nice...
@@moonmanvic I doubt it
It's gonna be Despots great grandchild to pick it back up.
Despot the hardest rapper who look like he’d give you directions and cab fare if you was lost in the city.
the half life 3 of potential rap albums
oh NO 😭
lmaoooo
Great analogy
Did it never come out?
@@samrose2484 right lol
Maybe the Corona quarantine will force Despot doing his album finally.
Well we just got one new song, kinda...
fucking lold
I hope so because this song is still so fucking dope and I want more
i'm still waiting
@@Izzy7s7 I just realized it was your channel I was listening to it on.
one of the hardest thing i've had to accept about music in general is that we will never get a despot LP
One of the harder lessons I have had to accept from life.
I never get ad's on this track and that brings joy to my heart
dude fuck yeah i never notcied that what a G
you've been holding on to this pot of gold for a while Despot, you damn leprechaun
marco herrera I'm offensive and I find that Irish
+Marco Herrera Chico To be fair, he's been playing this song live since 2012. He doesn't even like this version.
Yes.
salame boi
That "looking at the camera while this hawk lands all up on my glove" moment was pretty damn badass.
Always and forever one of the hardest tracks ever made!!!
"...how'd that little guy get on such a high horse."
Dope!
"you want a new song... tell em 2 put coming soon on my tombstone" - Despot 2016
we're never getting that album
I really hope he was joking
this is the realest rap video to ever exist in the history of existence...
there should be more rap videos with rappers parents doing tai chi...
Despot looks like he couldn't care less if he's in this video
Yeah, I love his flow and word play, but god damn, this dude couldn't show an ounce of enthusiasm in his videos if his life depended on it.
Seems like that's kind of his aesthetic, though.
Luis yah that's him enit bit his flow and lyrical content is one of the best out there imo the kid can Rap hard ...its that New York accent man smashes it every time 👊
ya its kinda his schtick. u should see him live its hilarious
how is he supposed to look?
Just randomly met a childhood friend of Despot and he insisted I listened. Wow! ✔️🙏🏾👍🏾👏🏾👌🏾💯
I love this video. It screams "This is where I'm from and if you can't tell by this phat ring I'm pimpin... I'm proud as hell about it."
At this point I hope Despot never releases a record. Honestly. As much as I'd love one, I honestly think it might tarnish his legacy. The guy is a legend and the pressure that would be on him is just out of this world.
Still one of my all time fave hip hop tracks. Love you Despot and love to your beautiful Family too.
It's funny we got RTJ3 and still no Despot Album.
I know. What the f*ck?
Jarrick Williams
Das Racist formed , played Conan and broke up.
...still no Despot album.
Aiur Das Racist need to come back, they're doing nowhere as a good solo-wise compared to when they were a Trio.
I saw Despot open for Das Racist. I didnt even know who they were. I paid 15 to get in, watched him open and left. Im guess thats the only time I'll ever see him perform.
thats the joke
4 years since the video, about 9 since I saw him do this song live, still doesn’t get old. Album soon.....
The Lizard, the Falcon, the Tai Chi, the beat, those bars! Amazing
Philip Larkin!
I just got abducted by aliens and I was taken to the year 2099. Technology was insane but still no Despot album. Humankind is still waiting.
Keep your head up everyone. Maybe this is the decade.
"Don't Look Up" movie watchers will materialize in 4....3.....2.....
Everyone tweet El-P when is Despot albums coming out.
savage af
This funny asf, seeing as how if we do this El might block us all
idk I think they're sorta friends now. wouldn't be surprised at all if El and KM were on his album
There is a company flow sticker on the bus at the very beginning...
That ship has sailed. Maybe we should pester Billy Woods to put it out on Backwoodz.
Despot. I just meant to thank you for making this album. As an Asperger's running Borderline personality Runner... I just feel like you need to do what you do,never be ashamed.

lol @ "motherfucker jones". Best comment ever.
Trevor Smith despit? Dee spot? Desput???
Anyone listening, on the cusp of 2020, laughing about the perpetual TBA album release?
Perhaps, give me your Facebook
Shiiva Inu We been laughing about the album release since 2011 minimum
Yes ma'am. Still waiting.
It’s coming out this year
God Almighty weirdo
Billions brought me here
MrSechelt yup same here
i was actually shocked to hear this song open up billions.
It's a crime they don't have a proper opening title sequence using the lyrics version. Because the lyrics could just as easily come straight out of Bobby Axelrods mouth.
HOW'D THAT LITTLE GUY GET ON SUCH A HIGH HORSE?
Just talked to him….album is due out any day now.
I remember listening to this in 2008
Stumbled on this- best click of the month
Yes, please roll another one
July 2019: still no album
yo im still waiting on this album
still in rotation, forever & always.
This video deserves many, many more views.
Any decade now baby... the album's dropping for sure.
Still bumping this in 2019 because Despot is holding out on us....
MAYBE ONE DAY
I've been waiting for a Despot album as long as I've been waiting for a Jay Electronica album. Will this be the year for both?
GeminiEye1 As a huge hiphop head, I'll admit this guy can SPIT. That flow is SLIIIIIIIIIICK.
shit I been waiting since 97 I managed to collect a bunch of random singles and bump those great artist hopefully a full album since
+GeminiEye1 Despot is so hot!!!!!! I am gay for this track!
+GeminiEye1 I can listen to this track all day, what is Despot up to? is he seriously sending his fans on edge as he puts together album of a lifetime?
+GeminiEye1 I don't know who Jay Electronica is but you have me intrigued. god bless new music! I am old enough to remember when MTV opened minds. that was some shit we will never see again.
FIRE!!!!!!!!! Never thought I'd bump a rap song by little white ginger lol
He makes what my grandma used to say sound bad ass
love this video, love Despot, and love Ratatat - thanks to Despot. Yeah, I'd lived under a stone, but crawled out from under and saw the light. Great stuff, guys. Thank you.
Despot is like El-P’s slacker cousin lmao
Never gettin an album I guess
awesome to see despot gearing up to drop his album
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHALOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!
hector gonzalez plz let us believe his album will drop
He preformed this song like three years ago and he's just now releasing the video for it haha
I bet this cat is just teasing everyone. His ocd makes him overly critical and he will never release the full lengh.
+reason2910 yea dude, i reckon you are spot on.
I first saw this guy perform over a decade ago. I instantly fell in love. Some MCs are so brilliant and charismatic that they don't need to be prolific. Quality over quantity. I'll gladly wait another decade for the "new album".
Only 4 years left. ... hopefully 🥹
Started thinking "Damn when is this dude gonna come out with an album?" Looked up his Instagram..... He's a fitness model now?????
lmfao nah that boy is diesel forreal
Rapping is truly a hobby to him. He’s been running a super successful nightclub in NY forever now. Keeps him pretty busy I imagine.
despot plz come back we need u
This is his actual moms, right? the one who still calls him Lechkey? And I'm assuming dad and brother? The projects-shaped ring is cold af no matter what tho.
The year is 2021...let us get this video to 1,000,000 views.
Despot, I never thought this fucking day would come.
Despot might be one of the weirdest and greatest rappers ever. He's in the same league with Doom and ODB....no. That's it. There's only three people in that league. Doom, ODB and Despot. There's no ranking though. They exist in a state of chaos.
Edit: I shamefully missed out Biggie. My previous comment still stands though. Sickest flows ever. RIP Mr Smalls, Ol' Dirty and Doom.
i had a dream ... one day despot will release the best album of them all and the world would finally come to peace
I don't know how many times I've listened to this song, but I can't get enough of it.
Detox will come out before the Despot album.
Just got back from my vacation in an alternate dimension where I picked up the Despot album. It's aiight.
Dizzam! Just got this dude from #Billions Season Premier! Super DOpe!
What a great track and video, only just discovered Despot!
i seiously replay this song again and again, more than any track i have ever heard, this track needs a case study or i am just stupid for it.

Going tell my kids this was vanilla ice
Amazing, this song perfectly reproduces my state of mind on several occasions.

So good.
"So rich I burn Bridges to keep the stove lit". 🖐️✊
Such a dope video. Especially the end.
July 20
This guy is amazing. I can't believe his name isn't everywhere.
Yes Billions brought me here!!!
I, too love falcons and accordian music. It's great together! And nursery rhymes!
One of the greatest rappers you’ll never know about
So rich I burn bridges to keep a stove lit.
ridiculously dope
LMAO mom at the end like "you want me to roll another one?"
One of my favorites.
Brilliant!
most precious metals are.
I can’t believe they put this underground banger on Don’t Look Up between this and the Wu Tang Clan in the beginning the composer has good taste in hip hop

Great Track!
This whole, we will never see his album stuff would be really funny... If his music wasn't such a joy to listen to. I'm younger then despot so im just hoping on all those post-mortem albums to be dropped when I'm 80...I'll wait.
