Jehst is lyrically the best thing that ever happened to the UK. Ive heard it all and no one can compare, his flow is unmatched, world wide, believe that. Peace
This a real Banger forever and always!! brings back memories man damn time goes too fast Just believe in yourself peeps and no matter what don’t forget where you come from
COULD NOT AGREE MORE. He really is a true poet, amazes me that someone can write stuff like this and not get half the rewards he deserves. Keep supporting, trust me he appreciates it.
Indeed I love his lyrics they are deep and have a clear massage and its good that he's still undergroup and not mainstream, getting sick of all the mainstream shit that call themself hip hop and shit
Jehst: I stay lazy laid back catching UV Rays I feel like I need to blaze to make it through these days of stagnation My crew see ways to reach peace The creation of beats, deep bass and free speech From the cheap seats, I watch the rain sweep streets I wake from deep sleep and embrace the sun Run the rat race to make first place or none Set the pace with drum breaks and scrape the funds together To see me through, to do whatever I need to do I believe in you and your cause So take the tape off pause Let it play and record Check the DJ then spend the day indoors I'm absorbed in scores, trying to iron out the flaws in the beat More draw to keep my cypher complete Kids playing in the street, out the window hear the rhythm I'm hidden, my loops are the fruit that’s forbidden I drop words, envision the night-sky by day By night I envision the daylight to stay A single step ahead at this pivotal stage J-Star upgraded for the digital age As the sands fall, I stand tall below the fire ball The sky illuminated by the light that inspired all Evolution I'm trying to reach a resolution Pursue revolution and review my contribution -------------------------------------------------------------------------- My body clock tick tock by day My body clock tick tock by night My body clock got me up to play My body clock got me up to fight My body clock tick tock by day My body clock tick tock by night My body clock tick tock ok My body clock tick tock alright ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- NMONIC: The night is my time to rise and shine Cause when there’s moonlight in my eyes I'm at my prime My instincts are fine as I adapt to the dark and I start to find myself Within this nocturnal Embarking on journeys I then chart in my journal See I'm saving them for later use Cause every day has a dream and another excuse To break loose and run away Escape to the neon fires where shadows play Pray they can stay young forever They paid their fare to never Neverland And together they fly Behind the responsibilities and then sever the tie that binds them to the sun I watch Icarus fall and see it has begun It's the beginning of the end See I'm back to day one and I have nothing my friend Not a penny to my name So I guess I'll just have to jump the next the train again So I guess I'll just have to jump the next the train
@takeahint123 I would. think about it, Shakespeare was a reject in his time loads of critics and people who said he couldn't write for s@~t but he could. Very philisophical about his ryhmes. Very similar.
@talkingturkeys yeah i think thers def a couple vinyls for sale on discogs.com i was unbelievably lucky, went to the record store and tucked away right at the back of independent hip hop found the voicemail ep.
Yeah Rhyme Asylum got to be my favourite group of MC's they're lyrically deeper than any other MC I ever come across and metaphorically they're better than Jehst in my opinion, but they need to drop another album, Jehsts got more material out and more content... more songs covering more subjects and hes shown hes consitent... Rhyme Asylum just need to show they're as consistent too... Still it must take mad sparks of inspiration to come as lyrically deep as they do.
Does anyone know if there is truth to the rumor that SonnyJim was Nmonic? Maybe this was something well known in the UK, but I am from the Sates so I'm not really sure. They sure sound similar. So does anyone know if this is true? Also, I am willing to PayPal money to anyone who can produce a copy of Nmonic's EP. It can be a dubbed cassette for all I care; I just really want a copy. Thanks. Peace and Blessings.
@MrConnorDuffy Are you 100% sure that it's not him? Someone was kind enough to send me the full ep and it sure sounds like him. If it's not him, I wonder who it is? I couldn't find any pictures of this guy anywhere.
I hear that Lance Armstrong, the cyclist who one the tour de france like 4 times, doesnt produce a certain amino acid that causes pain in his muscles which allows him to power through the steepest hills while others cant due to the pain. An anomaly of sorts. jehst is kind of like that. too bad his beats suck 3 quarters of the time.
@insanemania Oh Wikipedia It MUST BE TRUE THEN! I'm not saying Shakespeare isn't inspirational 400 years on just that there were better than him. Jehst IS a modern day Shakespeare, he analyses life in the SAME way SAME use of situations and SAME ability to transcribe complex predicaments into layered structured lyrics. Your English IS AWFUL, try harder stop using abbreviations.
@insanemania shakespeare was the best fuckin writer in the english language EVER? Dickens, Swift, Chaucer, Orwell, Huxley, Elliot, Austen, Bronte, Shelley, Defoe, Louis Stephenson, Byron, James, Carrol, CS Lewis, Wilde, and that is just the English ones there are better writers who had command of the English language. I feel you've fallen into the Shakespeare trap, he was good but there were better.
Jehst is lyrically the best thing that ever happened to the UK. Ive heard it all and no one can compare, his flow is unmatched, world wide, believe that.
Peace
The only one that could is Chester p both legends of uk hiphop
@@ewancamful Or Phi-life Cypher
Seen Jehst live a few weeks ago in 2023, so awesome! Love this number and love Jehst!
I never get bored of Jehst.
@Doin' Sublime - A UK Tribute to Sublime group 1 is Jehst x lee Scott project
You skateboarding?
I produced this track 🙏🏼
Sample?
Evil Ed the don 🔥
must be a nostalgic memory
'My crew seeks ways to reach peace, the creation of beats, deep bass and free speech'
Still banging in 2021
this song is timeless!!!
Yes my friend. GOAT.
Always
Evil Ed on the beat 😉
This a real Banger forever and always!! brings back memories man damn time goes too fast
Just believe in yourself peeps and no matter what don’t forget where you come from
Jehst becomes more of a legend each time I hear a track I have yet to hear
jehst is a genius, need to listen to his songs like 5-6 times if i want to really think about each line, perfect smokin music
wack british cat, “toy-rap”, nothing serious…
@@ABerti you kiss your dad on the lips
@@dbhoy07 “deep” words Mr. Einstein…
One of the best hip hop tracks ever made. What imagery!, what lyrics !and what meaning!. This is MUSIC!
good times listening to this in my youth, early morning sen bliss
i heard that 12 years ago here i am again it never gets old : )
Masterpiece
this can't get old...sick song
one of my fav tunes by jehst. well deep
COULD NOT AGREE MORE. He really is a true poet, amazes me that someone can write stuff like this and not get half the rewards he deserves. Keep supporting, trust me he appreciates it.
U can just tell from the first 5 seconds that this is a heavy track.
Fuckin love this...
Been a while since I last heard this
This aint' music..this is art..
Modern day poetry painting imagery.
could this be any better? Wat the fuck, its just incredible. Tracks like this make me feel alive man, this is the shit.
Damn. Such a dope song, im new to the UK underground but jehst is without a doubt the best lyricist ive ever heard.
Indeed I love his lyrics they are deep and have a clear massage and its good that he's still undergroup and not mainstream, getting sick of all the mainstream shit that call themself hip hop and shit
Jehst on his best as always.Love UK hip hop.Respect from Serbia.
Still buss it
If anyone else is looking for some good uk underground try: The Four Owls, FlipTrix, leafdog, or Rhyme Asylum. Peace guys
They're all good but they ain't Jehst.
Wow this is great stuff,Cant get enough of jehst love Nmonics flow!
Just beautiful, really moving.
Not heard this before. Top marks.
This is it Jehst burn them in this track one of my favorite for all the time ..
Jehst:
I stay lazy laid back catching UV Rays
I feel like I need to blaze to make it through these days of stagnation
My crew see ways to reach peace
The creation of beats, deep bass and free speech
From the cheap seats, I watch the rain sweep streets
I wake from deep sleep and embrace the sun
Run the rat race to make first place or none
Set the pace with drum breaks and scrape the funds together
To see me through, to do whatever I need to do
I believe in you and your cause
So take the tape off pause
Let it play and record
Check the DJ then spend the day indoors
I'm absorbed in scores, trying to iron out the flaws in the beat
More draw to keep my cypher complete
Kids playing in the street, out the window hear the rhythm
I'm hidden, my loops are the fruit that’s forbidden
I drop words, envision the night-sky by day
By night I envision the daylight to stay
A single step ahead at this pivotal stage
J-Star upgraded for the digital age
As the sands fall, I stand tall below the fire ball
The sky illuminated by the light that inspired all
Evolution
I'm trying to reach a resolution
Pursue revolution and review my contribution
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
My body clock tick tock by day
My body clock tick tock by night
My body clock got me up to play
My body clock got me up to fight
My body clock tick tock by day
My body clock tick tock by night
My body clock tick tock ok
My body clock tick tock alright
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NMONIC:
The night is my time to rise and shine
Cause when there’s moonlight in my eyes I'm at my prime
My instincts are fine as I adapt to the dark and I start to find myself
Within this nocturnal
Embarking on journeys I then chart in my journal
See I'm saving them for later use
Cause every day has a dream and another excuse
To break loose and run away
Escape to the neon fires where shadows play
Pray they can stay young forever
They paid their fare to never Neverland
And together they fly
Behind the responsibilities and then sever the tie that binds them to the sun
I watch Icarus fall and see it has begun
It's the beginning of the end
See I'm back to day one and I have nothing my friend
Not a penny to my name
So I guess I'll just have to jump the next the train again
So I guess I'll just have to jump the next the train
FAVORITE TRACK OF ALL TIME
Still true? :-)
deep bars from both, sick tune
this is so fucking sick im gettin right into my uk hip hop mad props from south oz
I stay lazy, laid back catching UV rays, i feel like i need to blaze, to make it through these days.

So i guess i'll just have to jump the next train...

very cool track
this is a sickkkk song!
@Rukkah he's a genius man pure and simple man's got skills.
is there anyother nmonic songs? ive only heard him in this and fist of the north star !
damn this song tuff
@takeahint123 I would. think about it, Shakespeare was a reject in his time loads of critics and people who said he couldn't write for s@~t but he could. Very philisophical about his ryhmes. Very similar.
mint !
@talkingturkeys yeah i think thers def a couple vinyls for sale on discogs.com i was unbelievably lucky, went to the record store and tucked away right at the back of independent hip hop found the voicemail ep.
This Nmonic guy has a sick voice,
if some1 got this song please can u send it??
I dunno how many times iv had to jump the next train..
done my research, turns out nmonic retired from hip hp and only brought out one EP, which was supposedly amazing. shame that you cant buy it no more!
@thereturnofda111 it's on an old nmonic ep... i think, jehst produced it... it's a lost gem.. this is definetly the best track on it
This is so dope, Nmonic's voice shits me up the wall though unfortunately.
@TeaMaster1978 Plus, fancy sending me his Ep?
epic artist but im glad hes still underground coz not everyones intelligent enough to get his raps
REAL !!!
jehst/ micall parknsun gotta love em.
Nmonic
Yeah Rhyme Asylum got to be my favourite group of MC's they're lyrically deeper than any other MC I ever come across and metaphorically they're better than Jehst in my opinion, but they need to drop another album, Jehsts got more material out and more content... more songs covering more subjects and hes shown hes consitent... Rhyme Asylum just need to show they're as consistent too... Still it must take mad sparks of inspiration to come as lyrically deep as they do.
just enjoy both jesus

nicee
Doubt it.
plasma left it so theres only the 2 of them now
Shakespeare on beats.
Jehst......lyrical genius......any argument there??? didn't think so.
Rhyme Asylum are technically very good rappers, but Jehst is much more introspective and political, so he is a better lyricist.
Still
oh shit, what album's this?
@MrConnorDuffy Are you 100% sure that it's not him? Someone was kind enough to send me the full ep and it sure sounds like him. If it's not him, I wonder who it is? I couldn't find any pictures of this guy anywhere.
I think he was just a mate of jehsts from up in huddersfield who just drifted away from the scene
instrumental?
@Jmaccxx How can you even say that :/
is this sample from Imagine (John Lennon)?
no
36oz is a kg. That's heavy.
@MrConnorDuffy Yeah, definitely. As long as you don't mind sending me your e-mail. Just pm it to me through YT.
@Kelamov yeah, thats what i said.
@brasilarethebest we're not were. English not englishinstead not isntead.

@pasiegopisuena The Voice Mail EP
@BlivOne looooooooooooooooool alie he ses bare of the most unfortunate words aswell......jump the next thwain. still entertainment value.

@TeaMaster1978 No.
I hear that Lance Armstrong, the cyclist who one the tour de france like 4 times, doesnt produce a certain amino acid that causes pain in his muscles which allows him to power through the steepest hills while others cant due to the pain.
