@12:26 "help me. i need help" L M F A O! the sincerity in ur tone & eyes compels me to type a few ways i take those lyrics, IN HOPE THAT IT SPARKS SOME GLORIOUS MOMENT LIKE @2:04 "It's fun when u get one, when u catch a bar" & I HAD NEVER thought of him saying "monkey on ur back" BUTTTTT WOWWWZA DEFINITELY ONE OF THE MEANINGS HE MEANT NOW THAT I HEARD U SAY IT!! i alway took it as the primates have had enough of our nonsense, they figured out that we r NOT EVOLUTION'S PINNACLE OF SUCCESS & they're steppin up to replace us. i'm pretty sure aes would be proud that we got both of those out of it & i know i'm always missing a few he's just waiting for someone get
Hope you check out his track Cycles to Gehenna one day. It's easily my favorite storytelling song of his, possibly even favorite song he ever put out. It's a fictional story of a guy who rides his motorcycle wildly as a way to try and cope with the loss of his friend. To me it's some of the best lyrical imagery he's ever produced and the beat is just perfect for it.
look for ur aes reactions every day so THANKS for feeding my fiend for them!! None Shall Pass isn't in my top 25 Aes tracks but I DID A BREAKDOWN OF THE 1ST 8 BARS & IT WAS OVER 8 MINUTES LONG LOL!!! i never took the 'not enough young in his lungs for the water wings' as him saying he's old but that could def be it. i always took it as the 'vulgar poacher' is using the breath/life of the young to fill his water wings cuz aes' BEST album is Float & he's got a track called Float so i took the water wings as someone posing like they can float AKA rise above/carry their own weight but they realy gotta use the life force of the youth to give them any strength AKA their sqeezing life out of them AKA HUGE rise in teen suicide rate LINK TO me going over 1st 8 bars ruclips.net/video/rkQeEc_jZ7U/видео.html
@@durere I haven't made a top 25 or anything but, this one always finds its way into my rotation! This was my first real exposure to Aes so many years ago, so it holds an extra special place in my heart 🥲
@@durere i dig it & quote a handful of lines from it, but my top 25 r close to 100% quotable to me, i can listen to any 1 of em for hours on loop. Top 25ish r Commencement @ Obedience Academy, Kill the Messanger, Tetra, Marble Cake, Hall of Game, Sick Firend, Numb 2 Da Guns, Fast Cars, Citronella, Big Bang, 9-5ers Anthem, Coffee, Pigs, Nickel-Plated Pockets, One Brick, Drums on the Wheel, Jumpin Coffins, Frijoles, Klutz, Coffee, 5 Lice tracks w/ him & Homeboy Sandman, 2-3 from The Uncluded w/ Kimya Dawson, Rickety-Rackety, Untouchable, Daylight/Nightlight combo, Mayor & the Crook & a couple off of Garbology... dang i'm way past 25 already & there's a few new contenders on the ITS album sooooo , gonna have to recalculate LOL
oh & Dang i love Cook it Up, The Substance, one of the Tugboats, one of the Crows, LMFAO i put together a playlist of aes verses for an Aesop vs Eminem battle & some of those aren't in my top 25 but i think they'd be in top 25 of folks who thought eminem would slaughter him! i only skip a few of aes tracks, Dorks & RIngs & i know they are most requested reactions of his butttttt yeah I KNOW I'LL DIE HAPPY BCUZ I HEARD AES' ART. If i'm bleeding out i'll be hearing his lyrics in my head & i'll be smiling. CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE WHAT/WHO I'D BE IF I HADN'T FOUND HIS STUFF TO DOWNLOAD ON NAPSTER!!
why????? it is one of the most beautifully written poems but i HATE the beat & i feel u gotta be an uber fan to think it's in aes' top 25 OH & SOOO MANY AES REACTORS HAVE DONE GOPTHER GUTS WHILE 80% OF HIS ART HASN'T EVER BEEN REACTED TO
@@RavenousCatalyst594 You assume a lot. I suggest it because he asked for personal songs. I’m sorry that you hate the beat, that is an opinion that we don’t share. I’ve also never tried to rate any Aes song because my favorites literally change with my current state of mind. I am an Uber fan, but I also never said that because it’s irrelevant. I don’t feel that I’m any better than anyone else. I hope he ends up doing the whole damn catalog, that’s how I got here in the first place. TL;DR… that’s why
😂 Aesop raps like a sodoku, Ok agreed, that's legit. Just another thing to poke at and distract you while you're sitting and smoking and taking a shit. (That said there's a lot worse uses of your down time)

It really does. Thanks so much for being here!
A vocoder is a synthesizer that produces sounds from an analysis of speech input.
Thanks for letting me know. Had not heard of that before.

Always great to catch a new one. Definitely more to be unpacked in this one.
I challenge anyone to find me a better lyricist than Aes.
Lupe Fiasco is an exception because he's real as fuck.
Anyone else?
I've listened to this song hundreds of times and never heard the penny throw. But you should watch the movie funhouse...lol
I just saw its on Prime video, so i might check it out.

Sounds like a super interesting concept! Will add it to the list. Thanks.
Have you wondered what Camu Tao sounds like? Check out Getaway Car. He has a verse on the track with AES
Jetson is another great track featuring Camu!
Thanks for that recommendation!
Check out his early song Mars Attacks
