I literally was so mesmerized by his bars on Hermit and the Recluse while driving I didn't notice the light went from green to red and accidentally banged into the car in front of me. Everyone fine. But the bars was crazy
And the following line is 100x better again because he's showing his hypocrisy but for me at least it also is something he really had to handle without the help of any God (that's how I took it I know he believes in a God but I don't, nothing against Ka obviously). "So I haven't spotted a product I can't scramble"
You had it right with the sports reference. “My Boys in the tiers/tears, but they ain’t ball/bawl, they all strike. Meaning the guys around him don’t throw balls, they throw strikes. They’re in the top tier, and they do this even though they shed tears. And the line where he says “moving rocks like easter Sunday” he follows with “trynna get fly, ima slide, peep the runway”. Just saying peep is a reference to the Easter bunny candy and goes with the trynna get fly portion as well. A lot of lines/entendres hinge on previous or future lines and don’t always complete both sides. Most rappers will settle for a simpler sorta half entendre if the line works better. So any easier way to get a line if it’s not clicking is don’t take singular as much, but add it to the previous or next line, or both.
I remember listening to this while I was high as hell for the first time ever. Never listened to a Ka song, but I fucking swear I was in a never ending trance when I listened and watched it. By the end I was at the verge of tears. Shit was magical.
Trying to find a reason I'm still alive breathing, wanna heal my inner child it's been a while grieving. Those bars are getting tattooed on my body very soon. My favourite ever bar in Hip Hop. Ka is that dude.
This is 1 of the best Hip Hop tracks to come out in the past decade, such a vivid storyteller, KA literally is Piccaso on the mic!! and this video is absolutely absurd, so deep & raw!
Being blessed in a myriad of ways today, first to rise from my slumber and in the midst of life receiving this brilliant gift of lyricism, mastery of the skillz, a true artistry of the culture. Ka the brother from another Hip-Hop planet !!!. All Respect Due Maximum word em up!!! Peace!!! Salud!!!....
As if he couldn't release anything better, this album is damn near perfect, its been on repeat for weeks. His catalog just keeps getting stronger and stronger every release.
yeah I can see that, a lot of MF Grimm's rhymes had to do with hustling, living in an environment with bleak prospects, striving to survive and succeed where many haven't got that opportunity to get beyond where they're living. MF Grimm is a real one, I got nothing but respect for his "The downfall of Ibliys a ghetto Opera", it's insane he put that album out in less than a day, I think it was?
*"Was Gun Crazy, My -180+ Was a Big Flip./ CAGED without HER, SO the WORLD is what My Rib get...""* ....... you know you a KA fan if you appreciate that triple meaning. He really is a great, & has now solidified his spot as my favorite rapper of all time.
Much Respect to one of the best doing it.
Same can be said about MMG!!!
could you guys sign this dude? or at least distribute his music? I think he needs more exposure, people need to know how dope his stuff is.
real recognize real
Much respect to your contributions as well.
Thank y'all for doing a great job at putting out great music
When I was 21 I was turning the volume up on this song drunk driving and crashed into a telephone pole. 27 now and 2 years sober. Good song

"They say God give you nothing...."
"Nothing you can't handle"
And the following line is 100x better again because he's showing his hypocrisy but for me at least it also is something he really had to handle without the help of any God (that's how I took it I know he believes in a God but I don't, nothing against Ka obviously).
"So I haven't spotted a product I can't scramble"
So beautiful..so painful..so true

Amazing. a true artist.
That's crazy this is exactly how I feel
XTRA DOPE! AND DOPE ANIMATION!!
Bleak, beautiful and resonating. This reminds me of MF GRIMM's music.
yeah I can see that, a lot of MF Grimm's rhymes had to do with hustling, living in an environment with bleak prospects, striving to survive and succeed where many haven't got that opportunity to get beyond where they're living. MF Grimm is a real one, I got nothing but respect for his "The downfall of Ibliys a ghetto Opera", it's insane he put that album out in less than a day, I think it was?
