"I don't even kill flies, I don't step on ants and roaches, i love all God's creatures."
"When I feel like I can properly tell the story of the rich and famous (from my perspective), that's when you'll get Longterm 3."
"Control System part 2? Control System is like Scarface, I'm scared to listen to that. That was a cornerstone of my life, a lot happened with me in my personal life when that dropped. To go back there would be kinda ill, but i'll never say never."
"You gotta know me and Kendrick are like Ken and Ryu, and I'm Ken, I'm the prototype in a lotta ways. Kendrick Lamar is the good kid, with this album he was tryna get back to *K.Dot*, get back to his roots, sag his pants, roll through the hood."
"You know who that is right? You don't know who the woman is ?!"
"Black Hippy is just a name, it's a name for our fusion. We all have our own personal goals that we have to reach, there's still a lot of ground that I wanna cover personally. I still got a lot of ground to cover before I can think about putting together a group album. I could probably speak for them when I say that as well."
"It's not supposed to be easy here, it's not supposed to be easy. How fun would that be? How much would you learn that way? If everything was just so easy. When it feels like hell that means there's heaven around the corner."

keep em comin!
MONTREALITY fuck yeah i'm happy to see y'all bring back these interviews. such great content
Could you guys put the songs you use in the background? Some I haven't heard in a while I and I can't put a name to it and it is killing me.
Soul needs to write a book for the people
Mos Blunted I believe in a past interview he said he was slowly writing a book.
"Slipping through the Crack" :)
The Book of Soul
Soul is wise beyond years. He isn't a rapper at all. He is a philosopher who uses music as a tool to teach others.
BIGBIZGRIZZZ !!! “Thank you Steve jobs for giving me a job, a digital way of displaying my rhymes” he said something along this lines before
@gotdamackloaded i understand both of yah. It weird cuz its like he doing more than music at this piont and it isn't being respected.. Or at least on a large scale. Because is definelty is respected. On sum If you kno u kno type shit
Yes sir
Dude is definitely a rapper’s rapper.
him an dave c on the same level
what he just said about suicide man..shit hit home when i felt him choke up talking bout it. Man misses Alori and I got mad respect for him for that and being that strong. Made me think about my situation different I aint gonna front.
same it hit me too
SAME
You know steez came right to his mind too
Celsos czcams.com/video/jcOSBM2QVig/video.html #3rdidomzimmortal shit s/o absoul
Fuccckkk me toooii
ab-soul just goes over wayy too many peoples heads
He's underrated.
He goes over mine a lot, but I won't quit trying to figure out what he means. I don't know anything about religion or philosophy so it's hard.
unun septium that's the point.. it helps you expand your mind research some of the gems he dropping
Mike Cawley all the time. U gota be at a certain level to understand this man.
A lot of philosophy is mostly just looking at the world through not only your own personal lense, but through the lense of the universe as well, ya dig. Sounds like (black) hippy shit but that's the point. Just open your mind to the world around you. Weed and LSD sure help I'll tell you what though. Maybe not philosophy but introspection which I feel is a subset of philosophy.
It can also be hard to tell exactly what anybody means when they are saying philosophical things. The fun is deciphering the code and then using the codes to expand your knowledge that you can expand to someone else.
Fuck it, I'll say it. Ab-Soul's the absolute G.O.A.T . I don't know what's wrong with people 🤷🏾♂️💯
Darius Harris not as long as Lupe alive
Darius Harris Killah Priest is better than Soul ....
Can we get Soul-o on the Joe Rogan Experience? fuck
Jared Greenwald asap
Or we get Joe Rogan on Ab Soul experience!
That would be amazing
Winston Wood Hey if souloho3 makes it i want my shoutout tho.
I don't think hes famous enough. That sounds dumb but like Joe rogan probably doeant know of him or his viewers probably don't know either
"When it feels like hell that means that heaven is around the corner"
When it feels like hell, heaven is around the corner- ab soul bro on point
His message about suicide was so powerful, hit me hard. Ab-Soul's so awesome.
They should get Earl Sweatshirt on here
One of the realest in the game no question
LouisDawg416 I strongly agree
Yes sir
Montreality ain't messing around no more. Love these interviews
I'm still bumpin DWTW in my daily rotation. Soulo is so underappreciated .
Afro Shinobi I’m not talented I’m skilled
Because the whole universe is just a city to me🤯
Background music, in order of appearance. 📝
Lil' Wayne - Misunderstood
Louis Armstrong - What A Wonderful World
Jay-Z - Dear Summer
Travis Scott f. Kendrick - Goosebumps
Black Hippy - Vice City
Flatbush Zombies - Palm Trees
J. Cole f. Kendrick - Forbidden Fruit
Future - I'm So Groovy
Ab-Soul - D.R.U.G.S.
ScHoolboy Q - Tookie Knows II
Nas & Damien Marley - Patience
ScHoolboy Q f. Kendrick & Ab-Soul - Blessed
This is why Ab-Soul is one of the best we've got. It's amazing how much we could learn if we listen to him. His points about us not needing ANYTHING to do anything and experiencing hell meaning that heaven is right around the corner are gems.
And if anyone ever disagrees about him and Kendrick being Ryu and Ken, check out Soul's song "Rapper Shit" on SoundCloud and tell me they aren't some of the greatest today to do it.
"it's not supposed to be easy here" that one really hit home for me
Thankyou for these interviews Montreality, these were made for Ab-Soul. He got me into hip-hop back in the day when I was listening to other bs genres. Peace.
Jonas check out The Underachievers, Flatbush Zombies, Mick Jenkins & Dillon Cooper
I know all of them and have seen UA, FBZ and Mick Live. (in Europe)
15:21 is another reason why, i love this guy.
Damn near made me shed sum tears.. RIP Alori
Book of Soul: "And if that happens before I turn 28, then I'm going out with Kurt Cobain." Remember that? He turned 30 last february. I'm happy to call myself a fan. What a trip it's been so far.
real talk.
Leon ayye day 1 Soulo fans
Long Live└A RIP LA
oh yeah and i would love it if you guys interviewed kid cudi
Immortal Vegan THEY LIKED IT
Immortal Vegan definitely just watching this interview had me thinking about him lmao
AB SOUL IS MY DUDE!!! Literally my favorite out of TDE.
It's crazy, how wise, open minded and awemesome Soul is, top 5 of the new school rap
The Universe told me to watch this interview 💫
Sooooo we can expect a Jay Rock and Kendrick interview then?
Joseph Su'a what about isaiah rashad?
I was alluding to Black Hippy only but fuck it, whole TDE crew :D
haha i really meant the question for montreality sinced he liked your comment maybe he would respond to me😂😂. but yea
haha still stands tho. Hope they see it and do so :D
Joseph Su'a and sexy ass SZA
the day I decided to watch an Ab-Soul interview was the right day. HiiiPOWER
Ab-Soul is one of my favorite rappers in the game. Hes lyric, content heavy, great delivery, multiple flows, and catchy hooks. Every time I listen to his music I catch something new in his raps. Some of my favorite songs that hes on are:
King Rich House, Back Then, DRUGS, Bubble Gum, Hearses, Money Team, Illuminate, Huey Knew, Soul Cry, 10 pints, Enter the Void, Thorns and Horns, Diamond, and Track Two.
Man, Ab’s soul (no pun intended) shines so bright.
I feel like he’s an old soul well on his way to attaining samsara.
Thanks soul, that last part helped.
I was hoping AB Soul acknowledged The UnderAchievers cause when we talking bout 3rd eye guys man them boys moved oceans
"You dunno who the woman is? Iz meee"
Seriously, Lady Justice has lost something (the justice system has lost its purpose). A concerned man (In this case its Kendrick) offers help and gets killed for interfering. Peace!
Dy Balance damn...thank you lol
Dy Balance Makes even more sense than what I thought, lol. Buy I figured it wasn't a person in particular.
Damn...Q and Soul back to back? Montreality back !!
Morning sunrise playing in the background 😭
control system is the best TDE album ever
I knew it would be Mural. "Black Obi, Shinobi hittin Kenno in the face with all my throwing knives..." So many good refrences (Gambit, MK, Contra etc.) Definitely my favorite Lupe song, the wordplay is unreal.
I love how soulo rocks with beast coast
Needed to hear this man.... "these days" life is toxic but Soulo is too real... a breath of fresh air
Been a fan of ab soul since day one today was the first time I seen this interview n I needed it great message!
first interview I heard where the music in the background was bearable good job bless uo
My dude talking abt Mother Earth wearing a rabbit hat😂😂😂😂
Might as well be naked all of our shit is made from animals. Hes talking about over consumption
Think of hunting, he stay wearin that hat and got its use outta it frfr
Man Ab Soul is the greatest at what he does. On a spiritual, intellectual level, and he allows his music to further enhance his thoughts to reach vast amounts of people daily. Crazy
that last question and message Soulo have within is so painfully beautiful thank you Herbert Anthony
Can't wait for souls next project
Protect Ab-Soul at ALL Costs
He's a good dude. It's easy to see that he's a deep thinker too. I'd love to have an entire album with just him and Alchemist on the boards. That would be like a Gangstarr album.
The end of this really hit me because I have been contemplating things.
I need that message at the end
mural one of the greatest rap songs ever made.
yeah that messsge on suicide gave me chills 💜
I ❤️ Soul! always spreading positivity...good vibes
I just need another ab soul album. DWTW was a bag of candy. Addicting and sweet af but still need more
you guys give great interviews and interview awesome people. thank you
This still my favorite interview of all time.
Chill ass man, respects to Ab for doing something different being real talking about real shit in his interviews and music. We need that 🙏🏽
Best ab soul interview that last part inspirational af stay woke fam 😹😹😹🙏🙏🙏
Man I absoul'utely cannot wait till his next project! LT3, or whatever he puts out... he's ahead of his time and his discography has helped me immensely.. anyone at TDE could drop but man its been a minute since SOULO has been here... but I don't know if people can handle his next project hahaha it will soulidify why he's probably going to go down as the best lyricist
I needed this
I can listen to Ab all day
hope you guys interview Jay Rock, Kendrick and Isaiah Rash
We got Isaiah Rashad in the bank, dropping soon. ✔️
Peep our 2012 interview with Kendrick while we work on getting the second one with Kendrick + the one with Jay Rock :
czcams.com/video/JfgSLlby8UM/video.html
MONTREALITY awesome
I heard that Wayne Misunderstood in the back 🔥🔥
I fiend for Soulo Interviews
One of the realest rappers ever! 💯
New haven stop on the YMF tour was sick. Awesome performance, always great to hear from Soul. Subscribed!
Blind Woman is Murica, listen to the hook of XXX, You close your eyes to look around
SOULO x Lupe
They should create a collaborative album.
great artist and video, been listening since 15 years old in high school. one thing i would say is dont give what you can handle it will cause a bad chain reaction trust!
I wonder how Ab is so intelligent and then I think maybe it's because he is not ignorant. INTELLIGENT MOVEMENT, HiiiPower!
The rawest rapper out here cuzz🔥🙏
Him and lupe make a project and that will be fire.
12:46
"I'm talkin bout no shoes....no socks. Runnin. Chasin food"
That shit had my dying for some reason haha
beautiful interview
Man! You are Great ! The Next teacha after Jeru and Krs... Peace and thank u Ab !
Its not easy to be here. when it feel like hell it means heavens round the corner. how lovely to hear....
Big up I was really feeling like shit!! Mad at the world and this made another day seem doable when ab said it ain't supposed to be easy I felt a huge weight lift off. Much respect ✊🏾
TDE love
One time Ab Soul had a performance in minnesota at the cabooze and at the time my girl was like 2 months pregnant and we wanted to go to her last concert before she went through the whole process of being pregnant so we got there early and waitin in line while it rained and everything just to get front row. it was a dope concert in the beginning then right before it was time for Ab to come up the crowd got more bunched up and people were pushing towards the front so at that point we looked at each other knowing the front row might not be a good idea seeing as shes pregnant and people are pushing so since we couldnt really push our way through i just had her stand in front of me and i created a barrier so she wouldnt get pushed into the stage. any way this is where it took a turn for a KO....this drunk BITCH was trying to push through me even tho she knew the stage was directly in front of me and there was no way her thirsty thot fish pussy smellin ass was gonna get any closer to ab soul but she continued to do it...I seen a dude behind her trying to encourage her so i said to him "bro can you get your girl?" and he had the nerve to say "bro just let her get in front of you" meanwhile my girl is looking like wtf is this nigga thinking? and i said "fuck you im not doing shit we waitin in line to get this spot yall can suck a dick. and my girl is 2 months pregnant and your drunk ass girlfriend is trying to push her way to NOWHERE which is pushing us so tell her to back up" and dude goes "fuck you" and instead of immediately takin off on him i just called him a "punk ass bitch" and made fun of the herpe on his lip and the fact that he got it from eatin his girls ass and people around us started laughing. by the way at this point Ab Soul was like 2 or 3 songs in his performance already so im already pissed tf off that hes making me miss the show so i turn around and i guess he was embarrassed so he PUSHED me......booooooaaaaaaaaa i LOST MY MIND!!!! I turned around and grabbed this nigga by the neck and pushed him backwards like 4 feet and since everybody felt the energy they all parted like the red sea and let me go to fuckin town on this bitch ass nigga. i connected with this dudes face with every punch then after i tossed this niggas head back about 4 or 5 times i just put him in a choke hold cuz i could tell he couldnt hang wit the hands and thats when security came and broke it up. they tried to kick me out but clearly they couldnt because i got pushed first and the security guard fucked up by mentioning that to me while trying to kick me out and keep the other white kid there who actually took our front row spots. so instead of doing us all the way dirty they let us back in on the opposite side of the stage where i proceeded to record him perform "Empathy" which you could search on youtube right now by typing "empathy live minneapolis" just to verify my story!
shout out to the black lip pastor
BlackK GMS damn lol that must've been some shit
Can I not click yo pg and see the video??
just tellem shes pregnant
Khalil_OG apparently they are lol
Khalil_OG im glad you attempted tho
SOULO THE GOD.... ZEST ZEST ZEST
Ab-Soul is light years ahead of most rappers
The guy gives me chills like I aint never had.. Never understood somebody so much
Ab-Soul so precious man
It’s not supposed to be easy here....yea I cried. 🙏🏾🧙🏾♂️
I love he's view on women & I love that he listens to the lyrics & want to learn from lyrics , actually hear a message
Definitely haven’t been thinking about offing myself but these times have thought me a lot. I really needed that last few minutes Soulo 🙏🏾. To everyone else keep your head up and keep grinding
The Intro gave me warm tingles in my being
Damn i teared up on the last question...blessed fit perfectly in the background too!
I truly appreciate ab soul for his words
My favorite interview of Ab Soul I like his way of thinking 💭 on things just full of wisdom. 🙌🏽
I love this man so much
we appreciate you Ab-Soul
Ain’t nothing wrong with a righteous man
i would love to - at least once - see the people behind the camera asking these super dope questions
What he said about suicide hit so deep.. I needed that. Thank you SOULO. I'm still figuring it out
Danny Brown! Should join TDE
Pro Habits Q said he would fit in, but ya never know
Pro Habits kendrick said if he can add one person Danny Brown was his choice
I dope sign is when all you fav rappers are one another's fav rappers. Pat yourself of the back; you're onto something!
By far the best start to a video I've seen
wish he did more interviews, or even had a podcast. Id watch that shit religiously
My nigga ab soul man
damn. completely changed my point of view on him. I didn't know all this shit. great video!
this man is an inspiration to me. i feel like doing good now
THE GREATEST INTERVIEW IVE SEEN THUS FAR IN 2017
the excerpt that really stuck with me was when he spoke about karma with the law of attraction question
