Outrageous!!!! I try NOT to listen to it because I never want to burn out. Anyone talking about the top 3-5 emcees bullshit are hip hop dorks. Black Thought is by far the greatest emcee dead or alive, he would chop anyones head off effortlessly so that puts all that politicin’ to bed rest. Period. In all honesty I’m a dj premier junkie from day 1 but these beats are outrageous. The whole project is the greatest thing since pants with pockets. Every other emcee shines too. Track with thought and con is lava. I’m rambling but this or anything with thought gets me hype. Idc what anyone thinks. One of my favorite verses by black thought ever was on that track “bird’s eye view “ Jesus god almighty. His level of intelligence and cleverness and still manages to keep it street idk it’s madness. He’s always been like that. Always. That track w thought and Che noir is vicious too. Hustle don’t stop I think. .. that’s another. If I keep going there won’t be any room for anyone else to comment. Long live Black Thought!!!!!👑👑👑 ✌️
Listening to the strong production by Danger I wish he could have done another album with the METAL FACE VILLIAN (RIP) but Black Thought is tearing these tracks up so I’m not disappointed at all.
Apparently DOOM has almost 18 albums of unreleased music, and a ton of it is with danger mouse. Madvillainy 2 is completed and was slated to release, but DOOM unfortunately passed. Still a chance it gets released but his estate is holding it up. It stinks, but it is their right. Hopefully we get it soon.
When you're on the same track as The Talented Mr Trotter, you naturally raise your Bars. And if he "Thought" they weren't capable of doing so, he wouldn't have even put them on the track the first place. 🔥
This is beautiful!!! Black Thought and Joey always make magic together!!! GOD Body tip!!! Russ did his thing too!!! He's stepped it up a lot too lately! Incredible prod by Danger Mouse again!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💥💥💥💥
This album is off the charts and the creativeness behind the videos is just mind blowing. Truly genius!! This type of talent doesn't come along everyday!!!!
Black Thought, is never mentioned in the great MC’s conversation. This is blasphemous! I’ve been down since the “Roots” back n the days. And Dangermouse, has been one my favorite producers for over a decade.
Truee. I found out about Black Thought and has him in my top 5. When people ask me who are my top 5 I'd even say Black Thought as no 1 but didn't bc ppl just can't accept if the top 2 aren't pac or biggie.
@@bennybombo Good point. With Action Bronson and Royce. Black Thought went last on that track and bodied everyone though! It reminded me of Canibus on 'Beasts from the east' by Lost Boyz.
This team up is a dream. Can't wait for the album. Black Thought waxing poetic with that lethal pen game as he does. Dangermouse still amazing with the production. Growing his sound with every drop.

This is good work but just a few corrections. It's "While brothers drop down to their knees and make dua Popsicle sticks, race down the curb into the sewer"
If you listened to Black Thoughts freestyle on Funk Flex, his freestyle with Method Man on Sways show and especially his 75 Bars his lyrical skills cannot be denied period!!!
Charles bradley's cover of black sabbaths "changes" needs to be cut and made into an instrumental for you. Its so soulful, the combination would be unrivaled and deeply profound imo.

I had the same thought, this is the closest we're gonna get to that level of collaboration ever again. This is the Madvillainy of now.

I hope some Special Herbs albums are in that batch of unreleased goodies @Spencer Ellsworth
No matter how many he did you (and I) would say we want more. Let's be real 😆 .. but im grateful we got this!
One of Russ' better verses for sure, they all brought heat but Black Thought is unmatched still
I don’t vacation I guilt trip.. he got that off 🔥

So excited for this album to be released!
I agree, been listening to Danger Mouse since The System
yeah for shure cant wait too 🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️

Always been a fan of Joey Badass. Alot of Rappers avoid being on with Black Thought( Top 5 Hands Down) Joey Badass did his thing 🎶🎶🎶🔥🔥🔥
I was thinking the same thing. Joey and Russ managed to more than hold their own. Following Black Thought on a track is no mean feat.
LMBAO! Avoiding Black Thought like a road hazard! This is facts....
Joey can hang with the greats and isn't afraid to be in their presence. He'll soon be considered amongst the greatest.
I think they rapped together on a statik selecta album back in like 2013/14
@@bennybombo Good point. With Action Bronson and Royce. Black Thought went last on that track and bodied everyone though! It reminded me of Canibus on 'Beasts from the east' by Lost Boyz.

Beta squad video referenced this great song and I remebered it
Black thought is the GOAT
glad to see the greatest at it again, featuring his favorites of the time as is his style been waiting 10+ years for releases like this.
one of the hardest songs i've heard
This song is my favorite on the album
man this has instant classic feels
Been listening to this on repeat since the audio was released. Now i have visuals to look at while i continue to loop it 🔥

Respect from Athens,GA.

Favorite track off this album. Dope guest appearances as well on this one And a nice groovy chorus 👌
Thank you. Hip-Hop needed this album so baaaadly.
NO way this song has under 500k views. This chit is FIRE!!!!!!!
Yooooo i have heard this before how come I didn't recognise Dylan on beta squad lmao
his hook is toooo hard
Almost as excited as I was for Danger DOOM.
This might be a sleeping banger
Here for the G.O.A.T Black Thought. Nuff respect due!
top 5 song this year
That sample is really addictive.
Big up dylan big up beta squad
Danger mouse production with black thoughts rhymes it's just classic material
This shit is hotter than summer 🔥
lyrics
Because it's hard to find your love, I found it out
Because you better not, you better not stay
Because it's hard to find your love, I found it out
Because, a story so non-desirable
I'm from where too many lives twenty-five years or fewer
Nothing we receive is brand new, it's just newer
While brothers drop down to their knees and make do of
Popsicle sticks, raced down the curb into the sewer
The next American hangman, sketch the crayon
Gangland all a façade, the truth persuade all
Killin' birds with one stone is what we stay on
Wingspan never too wide for you to fray on
The ways never seems to amaze or inspire
Illiterate, the signatures been forged, the fire
Broken spirit, some assembly required
It confirmed the door of no return at El Jara
Screamin' into the ocean for emotional support
We never won awards, we was boards of the port
Puttin' swords to umbilical cords to cut 'em short
Translation, vacation is at a last resort
Because it's hard to find your love, I found it out
Because, a story so non-desirable
We took shoestrings, lemon drops, and chips from the deli
Knocked 'em out the box with spinner tops and skelly
"Do it, you'll get to it, " what Mr. Woo Mac would tell me
I was locked, my celly read nigga, no Makaveli
This inheritance was negative, marriage is the devil's piss
State's evidence, give us anything instead of this drama
In the mirror like Yayoi Kusama
Had me turn into Muhammad, to Buddha the Dalai Lama
If I would snatch a shoulder bag from somebody mama
Am I cancerous? Can't discuss what the short answer was
Hungry as munks, take the money and run
Sometimes simultaneously taking one of your lungs
What I mean is I've seen everything that's under the sun
Niggas below the poverty line live under the gun
We all schemin', savages ain't vegan, what the fuck is love?
Don't need a reason to die, we die just because
Because it's hard to find your love, I found it out
Because you better not stay, you better not stay
Because it's hard to find your love, I found it out
Because, a story so non-desirable
I was on thirty-four cruisin' through Medina
I was just a Neo 'fore I had the Nina
I had the snapback with the tees on
Practicin' my ollie, I could hardly get my feet up
Had me hittin' the staircase just to roll the reefer, uh
Now I'm smokin' big Cohibas out in Costa Rica like (?)
Havin' flashbacks, niggas gettin' clapped at in front of the cleaners
On 34th street, until this day it haunts me
It's why I had to move raunchy
I know killers in Marcy, so please don't taunt me
I spent some summer times in Canarsie
Me and Quan gettin' stopped and frisked by Hutch and Starsky
They was lookin' for hard drugs and armory
Mama told me not to let that shit bother me
Poppa said to move cautiously
So the streets would never father me
But you don't know that part of me
Because it's hard to find your love, I found it out
Because, a story so non-desirable
Yeah
My girl told me I should watch my tongue
My skin gets red too easy
She don't wanna change her name like Washington
Wonders where I got it from
My parents' marriage was a toxic one
Mmm, oh well, I'm 'bout to cop a gun
Hope I get to use it, it'll help blow up the music
I know somethin' slightly off with me, drama is therapeutic
Ego hates feeling futile, sometime I move without scruples
Like havin' Mrs. Perfect with me and still chasin' approval
From other women, I'm a glutton, I can't run from who I become
Dad's around the corner, haven't seen him in like three months
We don't speak much, I don't handle balance well, got a fragile shell
My money split the king and queen up, then the castle fell
The tension in the air is still crisp
Sometimes I wish this game was over like I'm Lil' Flip (Flip)
Sometimes I'm wishing that my brain came with a kill switch
I don't vacation, dawg, I guilt trip, real shit, yeah
Because it's hard to find your love, I found it out
Because you better not stay, you better not stay
Because it's hard to find your love, I found it out
Because, a story so non-desirable
Hard! Appreciate it the time to execute this👏🏿👏🏿💯
This is good work but just a few corrections. It's
"While brothers drop down to their knees and make dua
Popsicle sticks, race down the curb into the sewer"
We never won awards, We was wards of the court*
out in Costa Rica like Pura vida
All three of them went in, one of the best this year forsure .
