From the album, The Night's Gambit. Video directed and edited by Ka. brownsvilleka.com itunes.com/ka/thenightsgambit amzn.com/B00DWKVRJS / brownsvilleka
+Ric Smith wouldn't be able to hold my composure in that place, KA & Roc done made me appreciate places like this, in this social media era I done forgot about the Roots of physically going to find songs. That look like a hip hop vatican
"Ka is continuing to build a very strong legacy." this. I honestly don't think he realizes how brilliant his work is. The videos, the instrumentals, the weight and substance of his lyrics .e.t.c. everything is masterfully crafted. Once again well done Ka, keep up the good work.
"Every" was the song that got me into KA but this song showed me why he would eventually usher his way into my personal top 5 & soon to be maybe favorite. The imagery & cohesiveness of this record is beautiful. This song gave me inspiration just as a fan of hip-hop...I found KA 'digging thru the crates' & this song will entice you to dig even deeper. That's why I love that golden era...you can always find something for You even Now. Pleased a lot of them dudes are resurfacing, such as KA, & getting their homage. KA just took it to the 10th, I've never seen a rapper reinvent himself (aside from Ransom) as well as KA did. ALL ARTIST take notes...off the record!
+ArC Live (*adding on*) anybody interviewing him in future, would be a great question to ask how long it took to write this song. I love his is 1 of the very few that admits it might take months to complete a joint...you can tell, hence the quality.
Ever since listening to Grief Pedigree he became one of my fav artists. I bought all his projects from Iron Works on CD to Days With Dr. Yen Lo on wax. Salute. Real heads appreciate the work Ka puts in. Dude is a genius.
Brilliantly ILL concept KA WordUp! Gratitude Love N Much Respect From Canada Brother, and as always your lyrical content, flow, delivery and video editing is a statement of excellence and enlightenment! Peace N Blessings!!
On some very real shit, Ka is an incredible, total package Hip Hop artist. I can't believe how inspiring he is. Every single album mentioned in "Off The Record" were hood favorites and undeniable classics.
Got a feeling this albums gonna be the best 15pound i ever spent lol does remind me of "Labels"but in a good way, this was painstakingly crafted so All praises due.
Met KA earlier today at the old location at Fat Beats. Real cool and chill, got the album signed ("2nd one wit it" =D) and took a pic. I like how he was actually there to chop it up with fans and sell the album. Going to listen to it soon! KA/Roc Marciano album on the way!
Yes. He said that he told Roc that he was going to drop first because there are a lot of people who still need to get familiar with him. The group name is Metal Clergy.
JEALOUS OF THESE REOCRDS!
I just came from your latest Ka review. Thanks for all the great recommendations man, I still appreciate and benefit from them today!
Minor spelling mistake, I win.
creative mentions!

What's Ka best album?
This song is dope asf. That room is heaven.

the thing?
this is the first time i've seen this video. i cant even put into words...this dudes....fuck. aaaaaaaaaaaaaah this is so dope
That was cool how he followed "Reasonable Doubt" with "Illmatic".....KA is the greatest....gave a brotha his inspiration back
Then followed that by Ready to Die....(it's also cool that I am replying to my OWN comment from 6 years ago...)
every album this man makes was/will be classic
A Classic paying homage to infinite Classics!!!💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥 KA has a way with his words, truly one of a kind!!! This album is a Certified Classic!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The Night's Gambit top 10 hip hop albums of the decade! Grimy and lyrical
Days With Yen Lo is even better.
Grief pedigree is better
Orpheus vs The Sirens is greater
Dope..Reminds me of a GZA type concept. (Labels etc.)

As a 16 year old I am happy to say I know each and every one of these albums dope to see someone rappin abt em like that

KA the most slept on artist & this song ("Every" too) are his most slept on songs
Damn... I need that record collection
If you needed like...a quintessential golden era and hardcore era hip-hop starter guide...this one video is it.
Busting out the classics
Brilliantly ILL concept KA WordUp! Gratitude Love N Much Respect From Canada Brother, and as always your lyrical content, flow, delivery and video editing is a statement of excellence and enlightenment! Peace N Blessings!!
I don't think it gets any more real than that. Wow.
oohhh, this nigga is nice. It's dope how he's telling a story using record names in his rhymes.
Tribute! Great track. So many good albums in that stack!
"Right after diary, it's War Report/ Got Supreme Clientele, I give 'em more to snort" this track is unfathomably well-written. One of my fave tracks
KA has got to be the most underrated MC in the game!
Pure art on this record and visual on point. KA could never go wrong. Respect!
This song and this video are amazing. Truly brilliant. KA and Roc Marci, the best thing to come out of New York in years.
Don't forget Skyzoo and Torae
Ka is truly one of the best MCs right now. Really appreciate how genuine and humble he is.
KA is a breath of hip hop fresh air
My man Tone Spliff turned me on to Ka 8 years ago this week as we drove from N.Y. to L.A.. He's on some other other shit.. Respect!
On some very real shit, Ka is an incredible, total package Hip Hop artist. I can't believe how inspiring he is. Every single album mentioned in "Off The Record" were hood favorites and undeniable classics.
1 OF THE GREATEST TO GRACE THE MIC.
VIRGIN ISLANDS PEACE ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Every genre of music needs a love song to that genre. I think this it for hip hop.
Great record! Glad to have mixed it!
No words. Just elation. Thanks Ka.
Lyricism at it's finest 🔥🔥🔥
Ka is continuing to build a very strong legacy. Much respect and continued success my man.
Got a feeling this albums gonna be the best 15pound i ever spent lol does remind me of "Labels"but in a good way, this was painstakingly crafted so All praises due.
what hip hop creativity means
Yo the Nights Gambit is dope af. On constant repeat.
Pure Dopeness!!!!! #RealHipHopIsForever
Ka's wordplay level is off the roof.
ka is the truth, this is incredible
All Classics...
I introduced Lord Jamar last nite to your music,he is feeling every single joint!
Probably the most creative song and video I've ever heard.
great, great song
one of the best conceptual ones in t' genre, I'd say
this dude is a sure master craftsman - shout-out, Percee P)
Cheers, KA
ka is so dope.... and hes humble
I almost didn't click on this video....after Jungle...sooo glad I did
"far as respect, we failed as teens...was colder, now older, Its All Hail the Queens" I play this song every week & KA everyday.
This dude is a monster wit it. How the fuck am I bumping into this marvelous shit now? I guess better late than never. Rewind!
KA that's where the realness at!!!DOPEE
Met KA earlier today at the old location at Fat Beats. Real cool and chill, got the album signed ("2nd one wit it" =D) and took a pic. I like how he was actually there to chop it up with fans and sell the album. Going to listen to it soon! KA/Roc Marciano album on the way!
Ka's in my top five! This brother hasn't disappointed me yet! Salute
Loved it. Original as hell.
The Classic hip-hop 🔥💣👊🎤🎼🎙
I had to get this. Lot of cats like this depend on word of mouth. Major media outlets refuse to play this
Can't wait for the album to drop. Track has been on repeat since I heard it. Being a vinyl junkie the video is heavy!!
The more I listen to the song, the more I pick up the albums he used to write this. And now I see the video and...god damn Ka...
Runaway Slave! Slept on LP!
Mad creative..luv it 💪🏾💯
Ka, one of the most underrated
What an absolute legend.....
That's the creativity that hip hop was predicted on. Hip hop is an artform that took special wordsmiths aka MCs.
Dope video and concept! I just copped this cd bro! I love the fact you spit that real NYC rap! I'm going cop all of your cd's bro peace!
Yes. He said that he told Roc that he was going to drop first because there are a lot of people who still need to get familiar with him. The group name is Metal Clergy.
he drops a whole hip hop starter pack in this joint 😁🔥🔥 put me on when I was like 16 lmao
Serious GZA vibes 🔥
Great follow up to Grief pedigree! Been knockin this on repeat since Sunday! Salute
Love this type of concept track.
Damn, It took me 7 years.
