“Screw the compressor on the tec it ain’t make a sound like a Tesla” 🤮🤮🤮🤮
Roc is nasty on the mic my god 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Roc closing the track like a true OG, Earl flowing over another smooth ALC loop, can’t ask for more. Shouts to Boldy Blocks for providing 🔥

"In any case, if I seem distanced and reserved, then give me space
, heavy pinch of herb send me on my way"
“Head of the herd, making sure everyone got a plate

Slept on verse
"there is no sin" sample was genius there. AL crazy af
@@xavierdumar5388 def

Underrated bar !!!! Hit home soon as i heard it
This lineup should be illegal, best single on the album
This is super hard but Fake Flowers tho.
❌ 💐❌ 🌸 ❌ 🌺 ❌ 🌸 ❌ 💐 ❌
It's a tie between this and fake flowers fr
that lineup is crazy bro
this line up is COMPLETELY illegal, actually
"If I seem distant and reserved, please give me space" 😭😭🙏🏻
I felt that one
"A glutton for punishment, keep a sub machine gun with 100 clip" Simple bars but the way he flows it is like a breeze in the autumn
I shed a tear every time I hear a roc marci verse. Shit is beautiful
Word
THANK GOD FOR ROC MARCI
I've already replayed this one like 5 times. Jesus.
Facts
On replay #22 as we speak…
@@Geeandrezzi i feel u bro hhah
Roc Marciano is The God in This Machine...
Roc spitting at a high level
Been spitting at a high level for years
Bruh they all did. Boldy gave a splendid intro. Earl delivered like a monk who hasn’t spoken in 50 years, and Marci was just being Marci as usual. 💥💥💥
Elite. id say he can go bar for bar with anyone
@@Geeandrezzi mann they was talkin that shit what a crazy collab Al, earl, boldy and of course ice cream man
my nigga earl just be spittin straight quotes
“Head of the Herd making sure that everybody got a plate” - Earl Fire 🔥
Why was that good
Earl been that. Shit goes over folks heads way too much
@@korruptnovellst4751 Earl the shepherd. He gon make sure everyone eat. Simple as that don't let it go over ya head
@@Malakai888 but why was that good? What's the wordplay?
@@korruptnovellst4751 again you let it go over ya head it's really not that deep, it's just a bar. If you cant understand then that's on you.
"screw the compressor on the Tec it ain't make a sound like a tesla, da shit was as loud as a whisper...." 💥💥
Praise to the Most High. Gems scattered throughout like grains of sand on a beach.
Facts
this beat is heavenly
One of the most beautiful loops ever made. Alchemist Iz A LEGEND!!
Dankie Bhudda South Africa we UP!!! n' hella tuned in
Yessss you said it!!!
What's the sample?
"Heisman magic
Stickin' out an arm and they standin' down, cram it in
Stamp and send the package out, Jackson style
Something wicked inbound"
Nice to see earl is awake.
Can you explain what he means here?
Those are gun bars. I'm sure there's some type of double entendre too though
Damn. Just Damn. This makes you just wanna break out the MPC and attempt to try to at least reach half of this greatness
feel u
Word man!
Word!!!!!!!
Bruh real music will inspire u I’ve been known around my way to burn down cipher’s I’m sitting here thinking I’m not to old boldy a year older than me lmao
@@MrDirtyd405 never too old brotha what do you got to lose go get that shit!
God this album. Alchemist the best producer out rn
Facts. It’s not even debatable. Every project he’s dropped in the last 2-3 years has been album of the year contender. He’s literally outdoing his own work lol
@@Geeandrezzi Muggs carrying this shit too yoo, these two saved the last decade
always has been
@@Geeandrezzi Madlib is still number 1…Al is 1.5
Rip Dilla
Yeah he's on an incredible run
Roc never misses!
I have never heard a bad verse from him, ever
@@barneyveld6730 ever
Alchemist really brightens up the day with these cinematic textures with these loops
Earls best verse hands down. Song of the decade for me
been waiting on this collab since reform school geez
Roc, you’ve just gained a new fan
The 🐐 Roc Marci! Amazing work
why has alchemist been making the biggest comeback lately... like he never left but now shits even crazier
he never left
Give Alchemist his flowers! I can listen to this track without the verses just the beat banging all day and forever!
Shouts Outs to the rappers for making this joint a classic!
"Volatile don't want no problemsos wit a problem child" man I felt Boldy's verse in my soul 🤲🏾
Roc Marciano really started his verse by saying " Broke generational curses with my cursive"
😂😂😂 he's sick with it 🔥
Earl ridiculous as usual, pen as sharp as ever and sounding inspired
“The pain run deep, you only see what it is on the surface”
ALC is the GOD of instrumentals any kind you can think of. This man has mastered music so well that his beats are so deep in a way that's almost unexplainable it just strikes the soul and brings calmness. Super serene sounds every time even trap beats he's put out giving them producers pressure in the trap game Benny The Butcher and Freddie Gibbs killing them shits not to mention Boldy's "Method to my Madness". Alchemist is definitely one of the very best Artists Hip Hop has ever had. He leveled up so many artists sounds with his beats look at Griselda, Boldy, Currensy, Earl, Action Bronson and a whole lot more.
Roc had the best verse, homie really said “I broke generational curses with my cursive.”
naw, bojay
Love this track!!! They all came through!! Marci's verse was on some other shit like usual, Earl bodied this, I like Earl's newer type flow and cadence of today a lot! Boldy as well brought the heat!!! Beautiful, raw, smooth Hip Hop!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
only thing earl bodied was a trash can. dude whack af.
@@claymanclutcher go troll to somewhere that gives af lol, Earl is clearly too abstract for you too comprehend, much love to you though my man, even if you’re a troll😅👌🙏💯
@@docm4544 hes not even abstract. just random boring platitudes. and you used the wrong to. earl fans smh.
“Winning Grammys now?
5 star living
On the 5 south, jammin out Heisman magic
Stickin out an arm and they standin down
Cramming in, stampin sendin packages out
Jackson-style, sumthin wicked and bound fast
Wind whippin up disasters in a distant clouds
Hit the basement, the moon full at its roundest
….Wolves howling”
Earl is a GOAT for this shit
I might be reaching but sound like a Tyler diss?
@@ajw2345 nahhh didn’t come off as a diss. He was saying Tyler winning a grammy was a “photographic memory” for earl.
@@Geeandrezzi gotcha it just sounded a lil sarcastic to me. The way you explained makes sense didn’t think about it like that
That boy was TALKING
@@ajw2345 It’s more like “damn, we really winnin Grammies out here?” which connects to 5 star living etc
Earl Sweatshirt always coming through with the heat🔥.
Bruh, FACTS. Earl floated on this shit like he was walking on water
Our South African representative (Thebe Kgositsile) doing the most
He’s wack
@@deevargas9871 not sure how someone can like Boldy & Al while also hating Earl
@@Robert-si5su cuz Boldy got bars,Earl sounds like a white boy rappin lol Stove God,Roc Marciano are way better than him lyrically
Roc is insane
Roc verse might be the best I ever heard ..
Three of THE BEST OUT ALSO THREE OF MY TOP SPITTAZ RN. ONLY BOLDY COULD BRING ROC AND EARL TO THE SAME DINNER TABLE. INSTANT CLASSIC...
earl aint one of the best. and bc of that. it aint no classic. shiit. u mean classic trash.
they should put Roc verse in an art musuem for people to hear 200 years from now
💯
roc marci yeah boi
Roc pen game really god tier gotta listen a couple times to comprehend this shit
This one of the best Earl verses by far. Kills the track
U know the face u do when u smell something bad thats was my face for this whole song🔥
thizz is what it iz
For the whole album
yeah it’s called stank face
You know that face you put when you exhale a long shot of a cigar ? That has been mine
You know the face you make when you kick your little toe into the leg of your sofa? That was my face.
Boldy tho. no one touches his flow and his line work is immaculate as always. on this track his line work is literally immaculate. I mean line for line all of them are strong, but its a close boldy earl roc. Although Earl gets hard props for writing his lyrics to reference the sample source material, an roc, as gross as that work/pain deep/surface shit was, he tied it all together so well and its structurally appropriate-- honestly way better than when p did a similar line on his alc album. And the tesla twister whisper shit *mwah* picked up the 100 clip from boldy put a bow on that bitch. I dont know how many times ive listened to this song, its fucking perfect top to bottom. just the concept is genius. turned a love song into an even better no-love song like that. shiiiiiiiit. *tear*
I LOVE them raw, soulful beats🔥🔥🔥 All 4 of them KILLED IT🔥🔥💯💯💯
Roc Marciano is King of Gods🔥👑
I found alchemist around 2007ish (or somewhere around then) through a mix tape he released and I knew he was something special then. So happy to see all of his success. The past couple years he has put out banger after banger and its always fantastic!
He's the reason I started producing myself, nowhere near his level but he was definitely a huge inspiration
Bro , he been hot wayyyyyy before 2007
Same here..he and Dj Muggs got me producing back in 2011.I must have made a thousand beats since then! I miss when making beats was an addiction
Song of the year contender, like period
I just felt like Roc was gonna be on this before it was even confirmed
this song made something with me. Hearing Earls voice comin in gave me goosebumps.
When he said "Niggas winning grammys now" i felt it.
this track alone is a reason to hop in my whip, worrd up
Lmao I found an excuse to hop in the car soon as this dropped
came on thinking earl was gon have the best verse off rip, roc tore this up
ian gone lie both they verses was hot as hell earl was saying that shit if you listen and roc was too both had raw ass flows
Earl ripped that shit point blank period
Marci the illest with the flow 🔥🌊
Im just thankful that we getting to hear something new from earl every once in a while thankyou al hope he does more features with him
Everybody on this track you can’t sleep on em, Wolf gangggggg!!!!
Broke generational curses with my cursive 🔥
The album is fire take me back to the 90’s thank god for Boldy & the butcher they still holding it down for the culture💯🙏 Give The Alchemist his fucken flowers now!! He’s been a beast in the game to fucken long and don’t get the respect he deserves💯🏁🍻
Absolutely beautiful.
First time I met Jay was at novo with black and Emory. Round my hood so you know this shit proceed my regulation. You already know what’s understood don’t need no explanation
Earl said “hit the basement the moon full at its roundest” too much fire lit right there🔥💯🎤
Wow the Earnest Scared Stupid sample after Bo James verse "I never forget a face" peace Alchemist
way too many of my favourite artists on one track, the god marc murdered this as per usual
My homie zay said recently “ I love how boldly just raps with ease” it was simple at the time but every time I listen all I can hear is him sayin that . And it literally Just sound like it’s just too easy for him . Shit is so hard . Nigga can keep a rhyme forever
Amazing lyrics and majestic beat.
One of my favorite songs of the year!!!!!!
☀️🍇🖤Listened to this often. Unique sht.
Stop by to hear some heat...thank for keeping hip hop alive🙌🔥🔥🔥👊👏🥇
This song is beautiful
After listening to all these mouth watering releases this year, i think this, by far, is my STANDOUT track
My life like a Roc Marci verse - ASAP YAMS
What song? 😂
@@jawnkandy an old tweet from Yams
So eloquent, can't get enough of it
This is the sound of ART
Roc Doing what he always been doing . This beat was calling for the Marcberg .Alchemist does such justice with these guys .They all suited for this style
I legit just realized the sample is saying "if I seem distant and reserved," Gladys knight and the pips walk softly is where he got the sample from if anyone was wondering
Edit: I'm not so sure if I have the right song used for the sample.
Earl flow pattern reminds me of a young Freeway ..I love it!! Whole song 🔥
I feel like this is one of earls best verses
this might be one of the best loops ive ever heard in my life
When a NY pimp meets an Ex OF member. Straight Fire! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Masterpiece… the right energy… this is an insta classic… shit make me wanna drink some fine wine and eat expensive cheeses 🗣💯✊🏾
Just listening to this over and over and over again. ALC is holding shit down like a septic tank.
Everyone involved is a GOAT!
Verses are smooth as hell.
Got this on repeat
I swear this is one of the best songs ever
Beat of the year!!
Roc is a monument
Earl killed it
roc too
This is smooth and a killer track at the same time
Muggs Is Legendary and Alchemist is right behind him. Blessed 🙌.
What a blessing this is
Incredible 🔥👍👌💪💯
Fuego ALC !!
