    I remember riding around with the homies in 2012 smoking just vibing to this, wow those were some great times, till this day I am waiting for king capital to drop, till this day I’ve been loyal to Steez and jam his music everyday. I really hope a lost kid on UA-cam comes across this song and the artist because this type of music is just therapeutic.

This is social media you wont get every detail you want...... There is only so much info that we got from Pro era and others that released info about his personal being. So for anyone to go around saying ignorant lies and spreading information that is false or created upon themselfs need to give your head a shake.... RIP STEEZ

    My favorite thing about this video is everyone holds the mic regularly and when its STEEZs verses he holds it from the top of the frame like a Boxing ring announcer. little shit like that he thought of made him so different. so GREAT

    He wanted his career to really take up I guess it didn't happen at the time he wanted it to or expected it to I know I don't know for sure what he was thinking or feeling but as a fan I want to say I wish he was still alive I would love to hear more by him and see how his life would be right now capital steez I miss you everyday

    Is joey underrated?
    The way he talks, how he sounds with his words, it allows him to spit rhymes with double sometimes even triple meanings. Its crazy. He says stuff like "I don't drink too much, I know the bud-wiser"
    I guess the point I'm trying to make is that nobody is doing it like he is, he's completely original in his style, flow, word choice, etc. And I don't feel like anyone's picking up on this stuff, nobody talks about how fucked up he is in terms of rap. All these other rappers in a box talking about bitches n ass, this guy broke the fucking box and hes tearing it up!!

      Exactly Chris Conscious blew my mind with the double and triple meanings all cuz of his pronunciation

      It's usually more like Wordplay and shit, it's like there is no other Rapper that has his style. Like Biggie when Biggie rapped he would rap in Patterns, Joey has his own Style and Flow.

      "I don't drink too much, I know the bud-wiser" wasn't even his line dude, he borrowed it.
