      ***** Unfortunately I had a really bad experience with him in Long Island NY where he was trying to pick up some chicks HARCORE and wasn't having no fans. I was so disappointed. But honestly I know he is a great guy and have since forgiven him. Can't blame a dude for getting his game on lol

      He's probably scared to do Slug, despite his shift in demeanor as of recent years. If you watch some videos of Slug during his young, emaciated emcee years he seems very mysterious / possessed.

    • @killerskillet

    • @BboySoloUniverse
      @BboySoloUniverse Před 8 lety +3

      +brandon payne depends on his mood. He might start copping an attitude and just not have it with Nardwuar's hijinks. It would be fascinating though.

    The last Brother Alli album it's fire one of the best albums of 2019. I'm shocked this video does not even have 1k of likes

    • @nikolademitri731
      @nikolademitri731 Před 4 lety +1

      Xaviert Jiménez Word, that was my intro to his music, and I fell in love with that album, man, but he’s still legit pretty underground, right? I’m dumb af when it comes to hip-hop knowledge (and picky af), so I may be wrong, but I thought it was under the mainstream radar, no? I know it was huge amongst most hip hop heads, at least all my friends who are big hip hop heads, but I don’t know if it was so big that people would be checking out this several year old vid.
      Seems like with these older vids, and a lot Nard’s vids, in general, that to get the BIG view/like numbers, you gotta be mainstream, or like legendary.. But hey, he got over 1k likes now, still I agree with the sentiment that he should have more, and more accolades, in general! ✌️❤️🏴♾

    • @xaji402
      @xaji402 Před 4 lety +1

      @@nikolademitri731 that album was my intro to his music as well. As far as I know he's still pretty underground. But I like it. You can see he does music just because he loves what he does so he puts all his effort to make good and enjoyable music not just because is his job now. I recommend you to listed MF doom, madlib or Freddie Gibbs. Just in case you have not give them a chance. Also I hope you are safe and healthy wherever you are right now. Peace ✌️
