Percee kills the speed but aes' style is SOOO FARR above par its insane...I dont know 20 rappers alive that could decode what hes sayin the first time through let alone reading it....
People say aesop rock is underrated? he got alot of views on none shall pass... Percee P is the most gifted of them all.. true legend !! love them both but Percee P blow my mind.
How can one say that Percee P destroyed Aesop when aesop said shit like "Is glorious hazes of gray spun explain through my array of operation slave to idiot box revalations"
@@forcedtohaveahandle i dont think aesop would disagree even vinny paz said on his track with percee "to be honest aint no rapper that can f with you perce"
Percee P's flow on this is untouchable
Just found this it's been fucking years since I've heard this I'm trippin hard rn on this wish I could add this on apple music.
Aesop Rock was crazy with the words and imagination. But Percee killed those multis and interns.
[Aesop Rock]
Wake up, wake up
Ayo Percee P, it's time to wake these kids up
[Percee P]
Word up Aesop Rock, they'd better take their fingers off

Volatile strobe while your blind spot swallows the globe
Sing to the track and think back
When I was a boy I employed styles exhausted
By every lost child at present
Normally I drill pillars of normalcy
You're cordially invited to accompany me
In rotations of the tables to label the opposition
As I choose, refusing to evolve with the cold
Rapidly dissolved my involvement in a solvent of soul and roll back
Brain trip the Beta weights, trap for the slaughter
Like livestock infected with anthrax
On my call a pack or clan snaps, collapsed was the mandatory maze
Where the bluest ribbons yield the glory days
Desire on the opposite circuit and glorious days
Is glorious hazes of gray spun through my array of operation
Slave to idiot box revalations
And wrapped tightly in a practice with my colleagues and slackers
20,000 league nappers and the swelling increases
Once the mortar hit the pestle your whole vessel fell to pieces
And I laughed, I laughed for me and my starving art family
I laughed tangibly, your failures ampin me to vamp fresh
My mic stabs white flags and drags trembling,
Devil skin-wearers through the terrors of compliance
Once the day turns night, senoritas suck the woody like termites
And wonder how they got labeled dick-hungry damsels in distress
The all new and improved poetically portable Aesop Rock

I'm confused.
@@khalfanjunim2982 me too. Might have been high or drunk 9 years ago... I do love Percee p tho
@@steffe689 XD
Aesop and Percee both killed it. Aesop butchered it and Percee P shanked the shit outta it.
Beyond the point of return man, dead.
Perc and Aesop make a dope ass team, Aesop is dope but percee DESTROYED this. Damn!!
no lies, percee's verse gives me chills highkey
One of the best hip hop tunes ever made
Percee dropped it real nice and smooth, big props this is a dope track
2021 and still as good as the first day I heard this as a child!
Oh man is that rap and beat soothing
2019 wassup
How can one say that Percee P destroyed Aesop when aesop said shit like "Is glorious hazes of gray spun explain through my array of operation slave to idiot box revalations"
perc, careful son you gonna break the mic wit that heat
2016 rockin it, dueces
Clipper ship rockin it.
It kills me this record isn't on streaming platforms.
I'm not your average man braggin'... All hail Percee P!
Murdered Aes’. So underrated
dope !!
Literally, that song ended faster than I thought it would.
One of my favorite Aesop tracks.
me too
I have almost all his tracks, but I always come back to this one first.
Is you fat cats or lab rats?
Sup sup 2020
the beat is beautiful. fuckin gorgeous
two living legends on the same track!!!
spacebrain1991 Aesop Rock is not in the Living Legends what are you even talking about...
@@baronmind954 probably means theyre both literally living legends
@@Hero-oz9gx lol yeah that was all I had been able to deduct 😭
A masterpiece
2019 still banging
Aesop Rock is DOPE!!
still here man w0w dope AF
percee verse is elementary compared to a young aes
@bigshleigh a young aes? man aesop will still crush life at 70 bro
He's still crushing it at (almost) 50! I can't wait for a new album!
hello hardb
@WuTang069 wooords
Sounds like mystery.
@WuTang069 you have your reasons for hatin' but im not gunna argu your opinion. guess you arnt that open minded...
Again, DOES ANYONE know where a physical copy of this album exists?
nope. ur best bet is to download tracks from youtube while using the wiki page for the album for the track listing. best bet in my opinion
just download the files then burn to a cd
That's going to be super rare. I can't even find mine. You literally had to email Aesop Rock himself to buy a copy back when this came out.
fuccin sik shit rite here
only for tha true fans
word up lol
@bigshleigh
That's everybody, lol. Except for maybe Vast and El-P.
@mrfunkygiorgio no rick Ross and asap rocky dislike it
@REalhiphop92 dont forget who produced it...
Percee´s part is waaaaaaaaaaay ahead of Aeosop
srlsy?
obiusly, u cant compare them, percee been rapping since the 80's he got all the essence and skills. true hip hop head
he's not his average haha
@@davidlopezaijon6442 yes you can, they’re both MC’s, Percee murdered him. End of story
@@forcedtohaveahandle i dont think aesop would disagree even vinny paz said on his track with percee "to be honest aint no rapper that can f with you perce"
Lil Wayne and Rick Ross dislike this song!
👍🏾
Kick/bass drum sounds like it really needs some eq haha and theres a vid on here i believe ughh freestyle from percee that was this verse wow
@CorneliusMcGee Yeah?
I like Aesop but Percee P killed him on this track.
@sexysniper232 Im plenty open minded, I just don't like his verse on this track =]
@sexysniper232 Pssssh cmon his verse is weak
