Thanks for showing love everybody. And for all the new visitors...let’s just pretend that this video just came out today
Incredible stuff! Better late than never, you've got a lot of talent and I'm excited to listen to more now :))
just came by, what happend today?:D
Also don’t forget to subscribe
hisoka byakuya CZcams has been recommending this vid pretty heavily the past couple of weeks. A lot of new friends
I'm stoked to hear what your new shit sounds like man, thanks for the great music!
They dumb for puttin Dsmoke and Saxon against each other... Both of them would've gone far
I've been saying this 😆
I've been on Flawless for two years and knew he was gonna wreck shit but I wouldn't have been mad if Saxton or smoke won either.
right
They might start making music together so some collars between them would be jumping
Fax and old man saxton is very funny
He wrote this homeless living 13 months in his car in LA.
"Can't wait to go... HOME"
Damn.
Mad respect
Felt this
This shit was AN AMAZING VISUAL INTO the life of someone on their road to who they will become. Proud of you sax
I’ve been living in my car on and off for 3 years in la since 2013 and have seen countless other people living in their cars here. I enjoy it though it’s like camping at home lol
This shit dropped right when I was a homeless junkie living in my car, perfect timing lol really helped me get through those hard times
Thanks man, you have no idea how much I appreciate you for that
Your lines and Jonwayne's track 'TED Talk' kept me going through my own homelessness. This means more than I can express. Thank you, Saxon.
Damn, the fact that he loved your comment.. Love his music for expressing how people like me feel.
Childish Gambino needs to give this man a call.
I think he's done making new music as Gambino
I felt like Ali Tomineek gave a more gambino vibe
@Derrick Gray I'm happy I'm not the only one who thinks this. Since the first time I listened to this guy I saw them being like PB&J. Saxon is just a lot more laid back with his lyrics.
Cruz Den
Ali Tomineek is ass.
Derrick Gray first couple seconds reminded me so much of earl
The only artist that left an impression for me on Rhythm and Flow
THE
ONLY.
THIS NIGGA NEEDS TO PRODUCE THAT TRACK AND LEAVE THAT SHOW RIGHT NOW! *DO YOU THINK SNOOP WOULD SAY NO TO HIM TO PRODUCE THAT FOR HIM? AND JUST LEAVE THE SHOW?* HE WILL GO TO STRATOSPHETE!
CHASE MADE A STUPID THING LAUGHING LIKE THAT MAKING HIM LOOK LIKE A COMIC RELIF... HE HAS MOS DEF AND ANDRE 3000 VIBES. THIS GUY IS A MTHFKN GENIUS.
Bruh I gotta get one of my beezys on that shit, Saxon for the win guys!!!!
OMG SAME
Same
Khai Pham D Smoke is good too!
the most underrated rapper of all time. whatever it's worth, I'll always love you and share your music.
Honestly, that means a lot
@@oldmansaxon1 Keep it up Saxon, love your style and music, soon subbing to patreon,
@@darknarax appreciate the love. whenever your ready come on over to Patreon…no rush though
@@oldmansaxon1 When oldmansax coming to Australia??
Man when I first heard this song I was high AF and just the beat gave me a really good old school vibe, I thought damn I’m happy to see Saxon killing it. But then I paid attention to the video clip and to the lyrics and that shit hit me straight to the feels, I hope you doing good brother and that the exposure you got from the show brings only good things towards you
Same here. Great experience.
I'm waiting for the D smoke collab.....
dobbymick h realest talk
🔥🔥🔥 track
Me too. Need to see this happen
it went hard
Faaaacts!!!
Legend says he still liking comments to this day
Xaybo I don’t think it’s true though
@@oldmansaxon1 just wow
Old Man Saxon my maaaaaaan 🔥🔥😎👀👌🏾 we going home with you fam
Him and the janitor
yeap.
This is a PERFECT snapshot of what it was like when I was living out of my car in Los Angeles. As hard as it was, it created a sense of freedom and connectedness in me that has always stuck with me. I look back on that chapter with appreciation and fondness because it helped to shape me and embolden me to just ACT, instead of being afraid. You learn to live with less, and you learn also how to interact on a deep level with those around you. When you have nothing to lose, you aren't afraid to go after your dreams. It served me well, because I got to do so many amazing things in and around L.A. involving incredible artists from every genre. Sometimes, you have to LITERALLY knock on doors in order to walk through them. People respect someone who knows what they want, and who comes to them with humility and respect. Love you, Old Man Saxon--I see you. I see your true artistry and originality, and whether those out-of-touch executives say so or not, the world is craving the authenticity that artists like you bring. Keep doing exactly what you do!
This is all so on point. Im glad we connected through this
@@oldmansaxon1 Oh, absolutely. Thank YOU for what you do. Never stop. Never. Much love and respect.
This song never fails to ease my anxietys, overwhelmingly appreciative of you and your music. Thank you
Thank you friend. I’m glad my music can help
T.I admitted in the after show the biggest mistakes the judges made was pitting D Smoke and Saxon against each other. Saxon would have gone far and is an amazing artist
Foreign Fayz yup
And he still will go far. Now we all know who he is. Remember, the show gave all the talent the exposure they needed. Old Man Saxon is sick with it.
Where is the link to where T.I admitted the mistake?
That Was Fate
@@cibbiegonzales2786 he said on aftershow on netflix youtubechannel
Back after seeing him on Rhythm and Flow. Highlight of the show for sure.
Still slaps in 2024 as hard as it did in 2016
I’m still listening to this. I’ve been listening for the past 6 7 years now. I found it when I was 13-15 and now I’m gonna be 23 next month… choked up while I’m writin this, didn’t think my life would get so fuckin triflin living like mice and men. Thank you for this
Incredible flow... Damn... I believe Anderson Paak and Old Man Saxon would make a Killer combo.
i could see it
Furreel tho that would be so epic
Yess
OOOOM, THAT WILL BE MAD DOPE
I’d say Tyler the Creater
This like the greatest song to brush your teeth to
Hahahaha fr man
Start your day music
Real shit bro
@@nolan5813 Dude.... I was scrolling through the comments with a new toothbrush in my hand... You're so dead on.
😂🤣🤒
I got so much love for this I’m sad im only finding it now, really needed this…. God knows ❤
Heard this song while on deployment, I was miserable and I absolutely wanted to go home. I love this song
That’s crazy. I hope the music helped a little bit
@@oldmansaxon1 It did even though the struggles were different I really appreciate the humbleness of this song.
i'm so glad for netflix for putting me on D Smoke and Old Man Saxon
Yxng D that’s the spirit, feeling your outlook
Absolutely. Cant forget Flawless tho.
@@liontribe8489 / Flawless RT the Truth
Dude me too! And 2'live music is good too
For real!
as soon as they said “old man saxon” and you came out In a suit, I knew you were the truth 🔥✊🏽
Man I really wanted to see you go further in the show. Really talented
Had to sleep in my truck for a few months recently. This song gave me a lot of perspective and hope. I’m forever thankful of the artist that put their life into their work. Because I feel it in my soul. Thank you old man Saxon
Old Man Saxon is in his own lane entirely. A breath of fresh air in the industry and I’m excited to hear/see more of his creativity.
Look up Mac Dre from the California Bay Area... is where he got his style from
Still better than Big Mouf’Bo’s video. 😂
Austin Rooks 😂😂😂😂
@@pacerboi15 She came harder though.
Ya that shit was trash lmao 😂
On god
@@dower85 ya true I wanted rae to win out of the two but I agree sadly
Revisiting this song years later and brings me back to when I was living out of a small-cramped honda civic. Keep pushing on everyone
Me too 11 months ago two door Honda civic coupe but I love my car/baby to death thought about selling her uuumm nah
Struggling with housing and keeping afloat I find peace in this song just knowing someone who came from a similar place can make such a beautiful piece of work.
thank you saxon
its temporary. keep on steppin' friend
Who came from Netflix ?
That's me
Me!!
Damn me!
N98k 0 me
me
His style is so poetic, reminds me of Earl Sweatshirt
Me too
Deadass
The cadence is uncannily similar
Wordddddd
My exact thoughts when he started, same style and everything. He also kindve looks like an older version of Earl
This song makes me cry everytime. It reminds me of the home we lost that I grew up in. I was homeless after that, as a teenager. I got a house to share not long after, then my own house. But I never forgot 'home'. I've never forgotten 'home'. Or this song.
4 Years ago I posted how this song spoke to me when I was really down. My life has way up and way down in this time, but I always come back to this song. Gives me hope. One of my Favorites. Still appreciate you Saxon.
His sound is so original, he needs to blow up and bring a new swag to hip hop
Facts
Exactly
I wish
It's a new sound for these time, but hardly original. This what Nujabes, Apani B, Substantial etc were doing almost 15 years ago. It is lofi sound.
@@titoleskytitolesky7670 ty hip hop historian
I knew when him and D Smoke went against each other that was a lose lose situation. I think Old Man Saxon, D Smoke, and Flawless were the clear top 3 on the show.
Flawless is good in one area but even when he tried to change it up it came up flat.
Not hating on flawless but he's a good angry rapper who raps about the same stuff.
Smoke nd Old Man Sax have original sound and material.
Ceez B ummmm, flawless is great, did he not show that he has a lot of different styles he’s great with throughout the show
@@yaboyb1527 he is definitely talented, not denying that.
Flawless has bars & a solid message but when he tried different styles it was clear crowd wasn't buying it. His video was also not what was expected of him. It was the same, I'm angry I'm hustlin...
Maybe because he's had a long run underground expectations were set higher for him.
I was just saying if he switched up material, learned a few vocals, and mixed up his tone delivery he could create different sounding tracks instead of producing different versions of the same angry rapping "I'm here hustlin."
But definitely rooting for him to blow up. Would be a cool success story.
Flawless literally did something different for every round. Idk what y’all are talking about 🤦🏻♂️
@@ceezb5629 you are right .... flawless bis very talented ...VERY, I have a personal beef with him tho cause beanz got knocked out by him but yea every week his energy and tone of delivery was the exact same...material and flow might of been different but he carried that same energy...even when he was in the studio making his final song to perform on stage the guy was telling him to say "IM ON MY WAY!" but to kinda blend it out smoothly as he said it ...flawless ass still went on stage and was like "IM ONNN MYY WAAAAYY!!" Rough as fuck and that song was more of a softer, more mellow song ...he didn't know how to switch his energy
Very nostalgic song for
me. I was in a dark place then , so glad to be out , thanks Saxon 🖤
The fact that big mouf bo went farther than him 🤦🏾♂️
I would have much rather liked to see him do the music video challenge than her “I’m just a biiiii-iii-lll” crap smh plus her attitude was horrible.
More like big head bo
Honestly bro I was like why tf would you pick Bo over Rae that shit made me so mad Bo was so ass
Her name really fits her personality too
Ugh I couldn't stand her
This is literally fresh af you’re so original
I’m mad I’m two years late 🤦🏾♀️. I promise this won’t happen again
@@oldmansaxon1 Please keep your shit up man.
This shits already classic to me. Makes me bust out all kind of dance moves I have no business making.
I'm glad I decided to check this out. Good shit.
Old Man Saxon, we just can't stop listening to your great song. We send you love from Mexico. Mum and I were very sad you went out of the competition, but man you're so damn good. Our favourite of the show. Blessings! ❤
Thank you friend!!
Just finished rhythm flow, love this song! If the judged didnt put u up against D smoke, fo sho u would be in the finale. Much love bro, keep making music. Love from the Philippines!
Thank you friend
Same, his performance was everything‼️💯
Real instruments still make the soul feel good in the most hopeless moments
This guy was top 4 finalist quality for sure, glad I got to find out who he is though
Man, the track is less than a minute in and already perfectly paints what it was like to be homeless and not being able to get a job because I was homeless. Amazing work, my guy.
Everytime I hear this song it brings me down to earth. Thank you Saxon for making such a great video and song that some can relate to
I get tribe called quest vibes when I hear this brother's music. Creative and thought provoking
Dela Soul, Jungle Brothas, Native Tongues type of feel ...
Definitely
Same here.
I first heard this song when I was truck driving in the grind every day. Was working hard to have something. Two years out of a job.
To me when you say "I want to go home" it means the feeling of home. The home you go to after a hard day work. Where there is food, where you can lay down and not feel scared.
I was traveling all around the country and had a place to stay but it wasn't home. When I heard this song it made me realize how much "home" meant to me.
The heaviest CZcams comment of all time
You got this bro, if you ever need someone to talk to my Inbox is always open g. Keep the hustle and grind and you'll continue to do bigger and better things fam. Much love
@@dylanhess2672 I have no option but to agree. Being broke and lacking options is a sick, scary thing. But that bright day comes in the end...
Pedro, I know what it'slike to live in a shack without a proper door, no running water, no toilets (hahaha, yes, I kid you not), no power, no real job and real doubts on where my next meal would come from...hang in there. Things will definitely get better soon.
@@aggreyomboki2257 alot has happened since I wrote this comment. The struggle is still there but I guess that is always a constant haha. I am at home now. No more truck driving, no more traveling, but I am where I want to be. Life is better even with all the flaws. Every once a while I listen back this song just to remember how far I have come. I think what this song shows is how common our plight can be and it helps each other know that we are not alone. There is always a light in the tunnel
Oh, man, that saxophone gives it such a fine vibe.
This song really touched my soul I connected with it as 20 years ago I used to be homeless it broke my heart. But today I am a landlord, have a lovely family and a corporate job. I read in the bible that all things in life are possible and also realised that God is true He never lies to you. Take his word as your truth even if everything around you says no just simply in your heart and mind accept God’s yes and you will be ok for real. Old man Saxon thanks for posting bro. I’m a black man and live in the UK. Much love bro😀
MUCH love!!
I don’t see a lot of people commenting on the dancing at 2:53 and to me that was the most noticeable scene of this video. Sometimes all we can do is dance to the music that life gives us, despite the perils and hardships; we can only dance in the dark by our selves.
I know I’m late, but I hope Old Man Saxon found his home
Hope he's okay my life just got completely changed today, when I opened my eyes and see the friend that I was considering good friend just profiting on me all the time for 8 years . Don't put all yourself in a friendship if in final they go away and speak on your back .
The only rapper that stayed stuck in my head
Thanks Netflix! I can't wait to hear more music from Old Man Saxon! 100% talented! love this tune
Thank Cardi for the show! ❤
I swear this song speaks to me in some kind of way. I can’t stop replaying it
Looks and sounds like Earl Sweatshirt... i like it..
Arsenafly Earl Sweatpants
Nothing like earl lol
Same
Hell Yeah man 🔥🔥.
Was bout to say the same 👌🏽 like the old Earl but new 😎
First person to make me press pause on Netflix and search for more. The best so far
Same!
Thank you Old Man Saxon for showing me that life is worth living no matter the situation.!! You'll get your flowers inshallah. God bless and keep looking up because the sun will shine on you. Blessings from Canada 🇨🇦 🙏
Only love and respect from me man , i just keep coming back to this song every now and then for the past years ,just speaks to my heart.Hope i can come to America one day and come to your lives 🇬🇷🙏
THIS DUDE ABOUT TO BLOW UP🔥🔥
SixEight25 damn I hope so. LOVE THIS TRACK. I’m hoping the Netflix show helps him out!
Today was the worst day of my life. It was also the day I was introduced to your beautiful music. Thanks for making me feel a little better.
Glad I could help. I appreciate the love
how did you get missed? over shadowed by nwa? i really like the jazz trumpet and feel..
Hey, that's me today! Hope you're well, Aaron.
So glad Netflix put me on Old Man Saxon You can really feel the old school Jazz shit he be incorporating 🔥
Saxon is a winner in his own rights!!! Let him jump on another series he'll win that for sure! What were they thinking putting D smoke and you together. I was all the way out my feelings when they done that! Saxon... I adore you, keep shining as the super bright star you are! ♥️🙌
Incredibly underrated. Well done man, quality.

This shit is incredibly underrated hot Garbage.
nobody:
youtube: i will recommend this fire song just now
Living in my truck for the past 2 months this shit hits hard but I know its all temporary gotta keep pushing but ..i just wanna go home I can't wait to go home!!💯💯💯
hits on a different level
yep and never forget its temporary
I’ve been there brotha just believe in yourself and don’t stop the grind
Little late. But, I've been in my compact SUV for like 15 months. And honestly, I rather have my space then to sleep on a couch and pay rent... Home is where you make it brotha
Update I'm now making 80,000 a yr living good with my own place in Texas you were right Saxon it's all temporary n it's always better days coming good n bad just gotta keep rolling with the flow n keep pushing thank you for your music getting me through n still continue to push through God bless you n wherever your at in life rn
this gives some type of nostalgia.. sad yet relaxing. Love it
*Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hooo*
*Ho-dee ho-dee ho-dee heeeeey*
[RYTHM AND FLOW SPOILER ALERT]
Dang. I'm so bummed that you didn't move on to the music video round. Based on this you for sure would have had the best one. I was really rooted for you. Here's to hoping your time on the show brings you the success you deserve.
mans definitely has a stronger story and arc to his video here than most of the videos on the show.
This is talent!
This dude had a better production and verse than many big artists . UNDERRATED.was worthy enough to win that goddamn show .
It should’ve been him in the top 5 instead of Caleb Colossus
For real. That dude was trash. He got lucky.
@@rufus5208 cap colossus is nice. got tht mick jenkins flow that some dont appreciate
I'm sitting here listening to this dope track trying figure out something clever to say so I can get a like from Old Dirty Saxon. Dirty cause his flow is so sick.
Quite a story, smooth as hell. Was pleasantly surprised, didn't expect it to be so relaxing and sophisticated. Hope you're holding up strong, Old man Saxon.
Old Man Saxon.
Love your music, Jazzy and laidback
The Perils.
Very "On Point".
This song touched something in my soul, even though I cannot understand every phrase and slang. When i heard moment "i want to go home", i moved to the past in my memories for 15 years ago, when i had no place to live, to sleep etc. Now, when i am looking at myself and see, that i have much more then average Russians has, i see, that i am on the right direction. Thank you for that song. Благодарю.
Nice job man
It was unfair to put against the two best emcees in the whole show (D smoke and Old man saxon)
They should've let both of them through. Both went hard and not just the rap battle
Yeah fr though
Hassan Abdi I totally agree I was pissed
Yup yup that was some bs
For real, i mean why are they both not on the big scene yet? This is my new joint on the road to uni classes
It's so refreshing to hear a real story told through music.
I'm from South Africa and Old man Saxon has to be the greatest rapper I've ever heard. Despite people sleeping on him. He truly is the best for me.
Yo i appreciate this so much. The fact that im anybodies favorite rapper is crazy to me
Certainly wish you'd release tracks a lot more frequently though. Nonetheless. All the best.
Old man saxons shouldve won..love from Texas
I like D smoke but Saxon had the edge imo. Hopefully the show was enough to get him blowing up!
CZcams has been reccomending me some good shit today
Wtf me too :)
came here after finish watching rhythm & flow you are my favorite you are my champion from Japan love you old man saxon
THank you friend
Why do I only just now get this in my recommended? Have been looking for music like this for years!
Well, I live in a van too and it's really refreshing to see someone who is making music with a video like this that shows my life very accurately. It shows how people live in a situation we don't want and that we gotta keep trying to change it to better ourselves. But somewhere in watching this, like looking at myself living day to day, I realized it's about the attitude, not circumstances. I can choose how I wake up in my tiny little vehicle and how I go about my day. Still want a house tho and to achieve my dreams lol. But I'm so glad this exists.
Keep going Akash you'll get there. Never let your circumstances define you
❤️❤️❤️
Exactly.. I'd be thankful to have a warm car to sleep in even with one backseat visible still it's somewhere comfortable and a space I can be most would love to have this tbh and most would love to have things like ebt too
Rainbow Akash wish u the best I’m on my way in the same direction but great outlook
Well at least all you hobos have smartphones or are a short cart push away from the local library .
Rhyme and flow showed me you and I’m so glad it did 🔥🔥🔥
This resonates in my soul. The beat alone sends chills down my spine
this song is pure harmony thaaank you ❤❤❤❤
I can not believe someone this talented was looked over with such ease
Im pretty sure the judges already had their picks before hand qnd the ones to tale it or win but wanted to make sure. But it was a commitment round for the judges did you notice thats why they changed the battles around amd made it literally rhe top two of each team battle so they could find out their winner grom each team then. The judges did this show for them and if they want to continue the show they definatly dont need to do that again and let the best ones be in the finale for a much better finale and that makes for hetter ratings
like wtf
how am i just finding this song right now?
i feel like i owe you an apology mahn
this is music mahn
madd heat
I really like your style and your flow Old Man Saxon.
We are missing uniqueness, individuality and creativity in our music and our movies today!
Way to go...keep reminding us!!!
song is still giving me chills. love you Saxon, thank you
Fun fact: old man Saxon was actually homeless for a year living in his car before he blew up.
I dont believe this.. .Old man saxon didnt like this comment lol.. jk
Powerful message. Many who have been in this situation know the truth and importance of these lyrics. Thank you Old Man Saxon.
Being sb who grew up never finding a physical home. I can say years later having my home and listening to this makes me feel like I’m not home.. my home is far away filled with unconditional love ♥️
Parabéns (congratulations) !!!
Obra prima, obrigado por isso !!!
Thanks !!!
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Oooo,man. I find this track maybe 2 days ago...Just always replay! Big up from Hungary!
royalszabi Hungary is still here ✌✌
Afrika Mozambique, always listening, hes awesome
pörgessétek hiphop fejek
Karcsiiiiii.
nu va dam ardealul suna cunoscut?
I was low-key crushing on this dude low-key on the Netflix special. He was one of my favorites
Bringing class back to hip hop.
Old man Saxon will be just as popular as d smoke watch him
Here before he blows up in terms of popularity
Hands up. Came after Netflix
Old man saxon you were one of my favs and you lost the battle against the winner so this shows how good you are...i wish you the best man
I hardly ever listen to Hip hop, but i LOOOOOVE Old Man Saxon... it's just such a pleasure to hear you rapping.
I play this song a lot because I miss my home a lot. Thanks, you're a amazing artist that doesn't get the credit you deserve.
