HighFocusTV B) Greetings from Mexico!
we came up with this freestyle underground track your shows are full of energy always enjoyed them. bless
You guys need to work with Clanarchy (check him out on soundcloud)
Wasssup
ok
This joint still sounds immaculate in 2024
Do they still make music?
@@baffledsquirrel2122 haven't heard anything in ages, it's all drill now it sucks 😞
@@baffledsquirrel2122 wish they would make new music
I found it in 2024! This group are really good! 🔥🔥🔥
masterpiece. ain't no rap like that in '24
Getting a track produced by Primo is pretty much the hip hop equivalent to getting a knighthood, good fuckin work
Haha, very true.
more to the point... who leaf has produced for in the U.S is the reason leafs got the primo connection.. primo rates leafs beats so much hes happy to do this...
Anybody with a bird mask and their bankroll can purchase a Premo beat nowadays. Mediocre MC's get beats by Premo, and it's sad considering he's a legend and does awesome works with Royce and others.
Cee Kay
yh man my thoughts exactly, everybody hyping bout a bank transfer haha, end product's dope tho
Cee Kay
im happy to admit im wrong here, but i didnt think premo has worked with any other UK heads? who else , non high focus rapper.. in the UK has premo worked with.....and how many non High-Focus artists have a bird mask? surely the point is, premo is working with high focus and is choosing to do that as he respects leaf and the HF movement.. are you saying, literally any UK rapper could work / purchase a premo beat.. even the overly shit rappers like eddie vegas.. ?
"we are underground if you wanna feel it you´ll have to dig it"
gbarassi 47
"If you want to find it pretty you have to find it beautiful"
that's the kind of lyrical spiritual individual bullshit the world really needs more of ^^
👌🤙
And if you dig it you need to need it the grounds are hard... harder then what you know levels are built upon these floors before you can reap the rewards you must know the struggle before you know the rewards 2:13/6/8 copyright D'zus Ruckus add dem words of yours let's get it together or be left behind N.W.O
DJ Premier is a genius. One of the best producers of all time in my opinion. Heard so many of his beats and they're all amazing
+Daniel S
Same man, Prem is a god,, listen to the Leaf Dog REmix of this tho (the first guy that raps), hate to say it but his beat owns this one.
It's a common opinion on the video im mentioning, look for yourself. And it's just that, an opinion. I happen to like leafs samples better. No need to be rude, champ.
leaf dogs not bad but his beat never owns this ...no chance never ever listen carefuly bro
I said "beat" before, technically its the same beat, different samples.
danHop no it isnt ... its 1. other drums 2. other samples 3. other beat... and for me preemos beat got more flow and groove than leaf dogs... this leaf dog beat sounds like the common shit u can find on youtube... i cant here any specific leafdog thing in his beat its like 1 of 10000000000
Only some are worthy of a premo beat. These guys totally qualify.
I just subbed to your CZcams and you made me discover this group
+Vincent Nicosia wait how did I make you find this group
+Lizard_Score I was following your day boi meme account (Rest In Peace) and I saw you tagged your personal Instagram so I went to it and read your bio and saw you made CZcams videos and I subbed and then watched one of your vid and this song was played and tada. These guys are on another level though
+Vincent Nicosia Damn that's some detective work. Nobody really actually reads my descriptions. The four owls are amazing. Listen to the natural order, which is their new album. Another great group from this label is "Contact Play" and "Dead Players". All really good groups, glad you found them. I have a really diverse taste in hip hop and do quite a lot of deep research into it because I just can't settle for stuff on the surface.
My favourite rap group is The Palmer Squares. Been repping them for ages.
Also go leave some questions on my new video. I'm gonna awnser them in two weeks when I come back.
what's a premo beat?
"We say yes today not tomorrow, cause the aim is to set the pace not to follow!!'' Dope!!
"We say yesterday not tomorrow, cause the aim is to set the pace not to follow!"
Ouff one of the hottest multi-syllabel rhymes I've heard in a while!
I have to say this is a top 10 dj premier track.
Premier is the 5th element of Hip - Hop! Since '87 not even wack production by legendary Christopher Martin, word is bond.
hiphop is hiphop no matter the color of your skin or where your from if you got barz and a voice you should have the right to speak out artistically
Man you so wrong it does matter the color of your skin and were you come from hip-hop is the way black and brown kids that didn't have no rights living in the ghettos going to school's were they didn't care a but you or teach you nothing hip-hop was the way for black and Brown kids to come together as one and speak out about the injustice that this country we are from was doing to us only because of the color of our skin so you see it does matter hip-hop is not something you do just to be look you don't do hip-hop your hip-hop
Fredo Ace its injustice to restrict who can make music. Hip hop is a culture of life and struggle. Everyone has the right to lyrically rhyme their life and struggle. Just because your colored doesn't mean you're the only one who's had life hard. Don't create segregation in our beloved diverse culture of music. Want proof that color firs hip hop? Eminem claimed King of Hip Hop by colored old school legends themselves.
Colour (correct spelling)
Hip-Hop is black culture, and it's foundation and construct comes from black people in ghetto's nation-wide. But that doesn't mean it is exclusive to black people. Anyone who's got bars and can flow and keep it real deserves their chance to rhyme.
RAP = Rythm And Poetry. What else ?
The Four owls are destined for greatness. Premo makes some of the hardest beats.
respect from greece
Lonnnnn
Premo and the four owls! What a day for UK hip hop!
The homies from across the pond killed it.
"People will only think again if they have to
Like a nose job feeling the pain for face value"
That lyric is too sick
Respect from Greece guys thank you for this awesome performance last night in S.A.F!!!
#Greeceknows
Ποια χρονια ήταν δικε μου ;Και γτ δεν ειχα πάει;😛
This track is fucking incredible!!! I'm a HUGE premo fan but this is the first time I'm hearing 4 Owls...I must say I'm VERY impressed by the flow, content, and delivery!!! We'll done guys and salute for repping tht real hip hop!!
Verb T mvp on this for sure.
Much respect to the hip-hop in UK. People will hate, it's dope af that they had the opportunity to collab with DJ Premier. To all you hip/hop is not in one country, it's within your soul!
truth
8 years ago?! time do fly like the four owls
After hate, all that's left is pain
So best think twice about yesterday
We say yes today, not tomorrow
Cuz the aim is to set the pace, not to follow
THA OWLS
Massive track !
Your a massive track! When are we getting another album!?
Holy shit
Just found yet another dope channel!

Dude wtf the real mouse outfit just complement these guys mouse outfit was the start to this kind of music for me there my hero
Now its 2022 where tf are the four owls
Yo UK hip-hop heads, no need to be insecure. This shit is raw, and the UK underground hip-hop scene is raw. Real hip-hop heads world wide recognize real.
High Focus is a growing light in a dying industry. keep it up lads
DJ Premier + The Four Owls = dopeness!
Fliptrix, VerbT, Leaf Dog n BVA killin it with dem dope lyrics..... Shoutout to DJ Premier as well
In my opinion, this is one of the hardest beat Primo ever made!
Props from Australia for the chopper read reference.
Chuurr

The last guy was the best on the track.
Verb T's nice !
By far
The Four Owls Unterstand what Hip Hop is .........
One of the hardest hip hop vocals I have ever heard.
The last guy killed it

check out foggy eyes or where you find me
in 40 years people will comment under this video, wishing they'd be born in the early 2000s to grow up with this. such fucking legends...
Mad Respect from South Africa # Loveforhiphop boom bap
Broooooo, same here! They're mad good! Old earth!
SA Represent lol mad love

Nearly 2 million views! I remember when these guys were hardly known. Big big shout out to DJ Premier for giving such a dope beat for the UK to shine on :)
"...the aim is to set the pace, not to follow...". Verb T much respect.
its crazy to see emcees from other countries with different accents, I enjoy seeing how they put their own personal spin on hip hop
Could UK Hip Hop bbe more underrated
“YO SEE ME ON THE TRACK MASKED UP LIKE I’M ROBBIN TRAINS!”
Absolute class in the first verse.
Enter 2015 like bang, time for other artists to think twice about their career. Big ups owls!
That Leaf, always comes with so much spirit when he flows. It's infectious--love it!
UK hip hop is alive!!!, US keep your eyes peeled!!!
I'm from New England, USA and I bump Four Owls weekly 🔥🎯 Keep up the real shit y'all
Bumpin this in the 603 kiid
Respect from Israel
To four owls and to DJ Premier

B.W
Learn some history it wont hurt you at all

StreetCliche K DEN
Preemo hooked this up
This song just made my top 500 rap songs of all time! This shit bangs hard! Primo on the beat.. The Four Owls kill shit!top notch
Most things get better with time but music is the opposite, the further back you go the better it gets RIP GURU
DJ Premier
nuff said
DJ PREEMO AND FOUR OWLS ITS SO DEADLY COMBINATION WITH HIGH FOCUS! salute
This beat is fucking ill!
2023 still here
Flip really loves the word Pandemonium
Ed Scissor loves "monolithic"
i listened to this song over 200 times now
That being said OMG WE GOT BARS FINALLY!!
Wow, UK MCs are bringing it. Weird masks, funky accent, no cars, no girls, no shiny shit...
JUST BARS! Now take all of that and add a U.S. bump, a BK-GangStarr bump, that neck-breaking-ghetto-walking bump. PRIMO BABY, Love High Focus but maaaaan,
UK might have the bars but USA baby... still got the beats! Good work!
Thx for keeping Hip Hop alive and oh yea, god bless the queen! ahahahah
coming from MONTREAL, CANADA. HEY FOUR OWLS!? COME ON AND VISIT OUR SIDE OF THE ATLANTIC! CHEERS
Still bangin‘ in 2024
Bird T has by far the best flow

:-) polloi ellhnes edo
MrMcPot Ninja se katouraw sto stoma mr mc kapot

Ηigh focus since day one ψηλε μου

Seriously, this is frickin' beautiful... black and white people making glorious hip hop music together, no matter how much the Barack Obamas and BLMs of the world may be trying to separate us. And while that statement may be simplifying some of the issues involved, please don't underestimate the value of what I've just said. God bless my brothers and sisters of all colors and backgrounds!
four owls go hard. and to have premo to produce this, that's insane. cuz they kill every beat
"Preem chopping up your ear like Mark Brandon Read..." Props from Adelaide, we get that shit...
I'm from Camden, NJ and my barber put me on to these dudes. Their authenticity cuts through. The UK equivalent of Slaughterhouse and I love the mask.
I have listen to hip hop for many years in the US, but I have never heard a group where every song is banging! Every artist in High Focus is HIGH caliber to the MAX. Sad for me to say but High Focus is shitting on a large percent of US artist. Listing to the Four Owls is where the US artist should have paved today! I’m a fan for real!
RESPECT FROM SWITZERLAND!
"Bars so fly they go over your head like bird’s eye view
So you need to think twice about the words I use
They’re confusing like doppelgangers in a parallel universe having deja-vu"
still some of the best shit ive heard in uk rap hands down
Verb T is consistent as fuck if you read this verbs youre a huge inspiration. Your style after all these years has only improved and keeps going forward
I wanna move to THE UK UNDERGROUND IS ALIVE....LISTEN TO THESE CATS ...FIRE
Can’t believe I’m just now discovering these dudes……I had to pause this song to comment because it’s impossible to listen to this and comment at the same time, that would mean the song is trash and this song is not trash this what Hip Hop needs again. The positive vibes, real lyrics and real artist. Hip Hop has no color you can be black, white, Asian, Indian or green it doesn’t matter just come with your own lyrics and real rap🙌🏾 Blessings to the Four Owls keep grinding and shinning👏🏾
Respect from Shirvintos. Can't stop watching this video, it's well made.
My taste of music brought me here 😌👌 Good music is still out there people! We just have to come together to spread the good vibes ✨
Damn. Absolute forgot this classic
2020 anyone?
Premier is of Extraterrestrial Origins👽
Damn that Primo joint is fucking stupendous.
I'm diggin their English/accent flow, sounds dope.
And that's what it's about... originality and style, if people dig it they dig it, if they don't then they don't, you do you and don't front.
3:08 " WE'RE UNDERGROUND, YOU WANNA FEEL THIS?, YOU HAVE TO DIG IT" Bars!!!
I'm still pumping it
Primo puts everyone on... I love that
I probably listened to this joint 10 times street I've been peeping the UK Scene for awhile these cats must've slipped under the radar this bangs hard.
Jehst
STWCrew Chester P, Jam Baxter and Edward Scissortongue. (Jam and Ed are on HighFocusRecords same as The Owls are.)
check rhyme asylum
check out coops lost souls mixtape
Thanks fam I will definitely check that out I've always had an ear to the uk hip hop scene keeping it fresh out there
I was a little worried that I was expecting too much from a Four Owls Preemo collab, but they delivered. The lyrics are tight, the production's heavy, and the video's ill. I don't like using this phrase but from the songs that have been released so far, it's looking like Natural Order is gonna be an instant classic. I'm definitely buying it and I can't wait for the tour!
Real hiphop is alive
in a few years time, this will be looked back on as an absolute classic.
Real hip-hop is in the UK now!
The Four Owls and Premier! Nice
This UK hip-hop sounds hard to this American. Wow. DJ Premier with the win again. Thanks fellows for bringing hip-hop back to its roots.
Premier Quality Guaranteed
Really awesome to hear some new, REAL Hip Hop getting recognition.
Everything Premo touches straight explodes
He's a public safety hazard
sry but seriously this group doesnt deserve all the hate. best elemental UK hip hop
UK hip hop finish 1st🙌
Verb T clearly shows his real skills on this shit
primo!!! when it gets down to body of work best producer ever hands down oroduced for legendary group produced for countless legendary emcees dead or alive man this guy will still be producing until he dies his music then lasted for almost three decades and is still revelant anywhere in the wolrd peoples fucks with him!!!! somebody get this guy a lifetime achievement award please!!!!!!
People love saying Dr Dre to me it's primo hands down not even close
Holy shit, produced by Premier. Wow.
U.K. keeping real hip hop alive 💪
the third guy was my favorite

Pree Is The Best Producer Of All Time My Favorite Producer Of All Time
I'd step in those boy's lane ANY time!
Wooow! Big respect for cinematography! This video is huge! Love it.
This is a sick track! Only heard about these guys a week ago and have listened to this one quite a many times. Respect from Finland
Abaut 8years listening..these guys are some extraspecial spice to the rapscene. Respect From Finland also :)
DJ Premier should make a whole album with Four Owls, not just one tune
