At least he said "the original", but he called him Asap Rock, not Aesop. And yeah, I listened to mainstream as a kid, and out of all the underground shit I fuck with now, Aesop Rock was the most acquired taste with his weird flow out of probably anything (and the most rewarding, because I'm a huge fan now). My point being that I highly doubt Asap would appreciate Aesop's music.
Why would Ace work with someone who literally stole the kings name and couldn't even be like my bad. And 2. The difference in skill between the two is so vast that I really don't think Aesop Rock would do it and if you did it would be the most unbalanced track ever in terms of skill more a battle track or cipher
People hating on Aesop Rock and People hating on ASAP Rocky. Wtf is wrong with you people? Super lame. ASAP is better than a lot of the trash out there right now even though he definitely isn't the illest rapper ever, it's OK. The songs are fun. Aesop Rock is so ill with his wordplay and his a rapping wizard. Obviously both of them are happy to meet each other.
Aesop rock is way better then rock yeah he had one good mixtape and 1 good album but after at long last asap I didn't really vibe with him anymore plus he copied spaceghostpurrps style bad but then tried doing other boom bap and trap styles which are not bad but not the best
Ra Poetik Music like serioualy lmao and these are grown men too 😂 quarreling over rap artists that both respect each other, negativity is a disease that'll never have a cure.
@@JohnnyRose-c8wthat's not even close to the same thing 😂 Rocky is apart of the A$AP collective started by A$AP Yams (RIP). Rocky's actual name is Rakim, his parents named him after the rapper. But he decided to go by Rocky because it still kind of sounded like his name and distanced himself from the legendary title that already is Rakim.Thus you now have A$AP Rocky. Purely coincidental that it sounds so close to Aesop Rock. As a long time fan of Aes I found it pretty funny. But you're talking about straight up jacking someone's name
Dude I always thought ASAP ripped off Aesop's name, but turns out it was complete coincidence, who knew. Aesop is my man, been jamming to him for years. ASAP is fairly new to me but also talented. Great artists showing props, I like it.
Why do people still think Rocky got his name from Aesop, his group is called ASAP (Always Strive And Prosper) mob and he got Rocky from Rakim which is his name. Plus why are people comparing these when they are complete polar opposite artists, I fuck with both of them and obviously Aesop is a better lyricist but I don't understand how you can hate on Rocky so much.
Both of these guy's including clams casino & tyler the creator are some of my favorite artists.. Can you imagine all of them including brother ali on a project it'd be insane
I like listening to both, two of my favorite artists of all time. People are corny as fuck trying to shit one on and big up the other. It’s possible two enjoy two different things at the same time. Doesn’t always have to be hate attached.
Thank you lol. People act like you can only like one style of hip hop.. You can like rappers like Nas, Guru, Biggie, Prodigy, etc. and still like new school artists..
Here's a funny story. I've listened to A$AP Rocky loads of times before I heard about Aesop Rock and when I heard about him, I thought he was a rip off of A$AP Rocky but when I looked up Aesop turns out I was wrong Aesop's been doin music since 96 or 97 and he got the name from when he was doing a movie, So I thought A$AP Rocky was a rip off but turns out he wasn't, he got the name A$AP cause he was inspired by other rappers with the name ASAP and rocky is his real name so yeah but hey it's pretty cool though cause both these guys are really talented rappers without a doubt like Aesop tends to tell crazy stories with poetry and old metaphors from people such as Shakespeare and Herman Melville and etc and I enjoy that, A$AP just the cool and awesome rapper just showin off for the rap game, I just love the styles of hip hop that they do.
this comment section is horrid. there's a bunch of people hating on mainstream rap like ASAP Rocky and to a lesser extent people bashing underground rap like Aesop Rock. Grow up children and stop trying to seem better than everyone else because "your music taste is better"
why the fuck can't people just enjoy music for what it is and stop creating these artificial beefs between artists? i fucking hate when people feel like they need to tell everybody else what they should like, shit is so petty.
This need to be negative is too strong, guys, you're fighting a lost cause. For a lot of people, bashing on something is the only way they have to feel real.
Damn, so many pretentious assholes on here. Aesop has been in the game far longer than A$AP, so they're gonna have different styles from the hip hop they were raised in. Aesop makes awesome beats and rhymes that are like college-level poetry. A$AP makes awesome beats and rhymes that, while being way more surface level, make it easier to understand and helps you live in the moment of the song. They're both awesome rappers that really aren't comparable to each other because the come from opposite sides of the spectrum. And both their names are extremely similar, which means (Holy Shit!) COINCIDENCES EXIST. Nobody should be sued or forced to change their name. Plus, the guys seem cool with each other, so why is there so much hate from the fans? If everyone rapped the same, rap would be so fucking boring. Sure, I listen to Brother Ali and Aesop often, but sometimes I'll put on some RiFF RaFF or Drake.
+TheHoundoom pretty sure A$AP just gets his beats from other people. he's coproduced like 2 tracks judging from the wiki pages of his albums. aesop rock has produced multiple albums as well as other random shit, although blockhead used to be his primary producer. no hate here however
TheHoundoom yeah as an old time aesop rock fan (been listening since freshman year of high school), i can say i dig most of what a$ap rocky does. it's just a totally different style
This was funny and cool. There's nothing else to be said. Two good rappers with similar names made a slightly interesting little moment. Both are good at what they do.
All these "real hip hop fans" in the comments hating on ASAP Rocky because they think it makes them look cool. Guarantee they've never actually listened to a Rocky project because if they did, they would show him some respect (and Aesop Rock is also fantastic!)
I agree. I listened to Aesop Rock for a while now and just recently got into Rocky about a month ago and he’s dope. They’re booth good at what they do in their forms of rap styles.
If anyone doesn't deserve hate from the "new" scene, it's Rocky, he was always on point with his music. I like most of A$AP even though I prefer Aesop Rock by a mile. I even got Ferg's CDs at home...
Wade Zabel No. Technically it's pronounced "EE-sup Rock" (as in Aesop's Fable, and as heard at the end of "Keep Off The Lawn") The man himself pronounces it "ACE-op Rock" and refers to himself as "Aes" (pronounced "ace") in many of his tracks.
I like how the internet takes a wholesome moment and turns into a negative underground vs mainstream bs argument... y'all can learn something from the rappers you cherish so dearly .. they're not as rigid as you are
The first time I heard of asap rocky my friend invited me to his show thinking it was aesop rock. Danny brown went on before asap. First time hearing him, too. Was very wtf
I love Aesop rock but the cornballs in the comment section trying to discredit rockys contribution to the genre are so cringey. That’s why people clown underground rap fans they’re so pretentious
Rocky is ALWAYS a humble dude and ALWAYS thanks those who do things like that for him and that's whatsup....(just like when Angie Martinez introduced him to the real Rakim....epic)....
I find that a lot of the people talking down on A$AP ROCKY don't actually know what he sounds like? He's definitely not what a lot of people would call a "mumble rapper" or whatever the fuck.
@@dontsettlefor500mill you’re in every comment spittin bull shit bro. Sad ass rap fan you are. Please provide facts on how he stole the name? I’ll wait.🤔
@@RANE303 Alright. You're lucky. I have a free minute to school you. I never claimed that ASAP straight-up stole the name. What is a fact, is that IF he was a true dedicated professional in the hip-hop game, he should be familiar with Aesop Rock. Maybe ASAP had that name since a young buck, but there should have been a moment when he became aware of Aesop Rock, who existed before him, and thoughtfully reconsidered his moniker choice. I'm sure he was not aware of his existence. Aesop is almost 45 years old. Asap is about 33.
Actually, a while back someone recommended A$AP Rocky to me.
I misheard the name and have been listening to Aesop Rock ever since. :)

He literally has the largest vocabulary in hip hop, someone actually did the math.
I'm also almost 20 years in, still a project

atleast ASAP gave Aesop his credit where due

Asap didn't he said asap and not aesop and fuck rosenberg cause he knew that would happen. Completely unrelated i want him on rusillo and wahtever shity name they come up with for him
I dont think ASAP even tried to listen to Aesop. If he did he prob turned it off after 30 seconds.
At least he said "the original", but he called him Asap Rock, not Aesop. And yeah, I listened to mainstream as a kid, and out of all the underground shit I fuck with now, Aesop Rock was the most acquired taste with his weird flow out of probably anything (and the most rewarding, because I'm a huge fan now).

Not at all maybe if they actually made something

Hate that the dude filming and asap rocky himself both said "asap rock" instead of Aesop. Dudes a legend get that shit right.
put some respek on his name
I'm actually yet to hear any American pronounce it right. Even the ones who laugh at other people for saying it wrong.
The same dude who is educated on the topic, probably wouldn't even bother hitting the record button.
@@michaelhall5429so he doesn't pronounce his own name right? Haha jp
I mean tbh i have no goddamn idea how to pronounce "aesop" so it didn't sound wrong to me
lol @ him saying the internet about to blow up with that photo when ASAP dressed like an anonymous black unibomber
very under-rated comment. thank you i was thinking the same.
every once in a while i come back to this vid
Legit, one of my fav HipHop moments right here 🤩
Ima die hard aesop rock fan. Test me. But asap rocky is a legend too mayne
The first time I heard of asap rocky my friend invited me to his show thinking it was aesop rock. Danny brown went on before asap. First time hearing him, too. Was very wtf
HAHAHAHA seeing Danny Brown without knowing who he is was probably traumatic
I love Aesop rock but the cornballs in the comment section trying to discredit rockys contribution to the genre are so cringey. That’s why people clown underground rap fans they’re so pretentious

Amazing. Love all those dudes.
Rocky is ALWAYS a humble dude and ALWAYS thanks those who do things like that for him and that's whatsup....(just like when Angie Martinez introduced him to the real Rakim....epic)....
All I seen was Brotha Ali and Aesop Rock. The true legends
Now they just need to bring in Aesop (the Original Legend) from the Living Legends crew!
Hell yea!!!
The black wolf is super underrated... you are dope
i was sitting on my fire escape and i saw...... BITERS FOR ACRES
Yes to this
The biters being the dirty pigeons.
Aesop Rock is so chill man. I mean, he’s probably super stoned too! Gotta love him ❤️
I listen to all three artist and seeing this video definitely made me smile.
Why people talking shit about Rocky just cause he’s not underground. Like he’s not bad either
Oh now i get why people always confuse the two, they look so alike..
I find that a lot of the people talking down on A$AP ROCKY don't actually know what he sounds like? He's definitely not what a lot of people would call a "mumble rapper" or whatever the fuck.
Read the title and then got most excited when I saw Brother Ali. What a dope room to be in.
Awwwn this is so sweet, makes my hip-hop heart happy
it’s like when i tell people i like aesop rock is one of my favorites and they go “ oh yeah asap rocky ?”
damn you must feel so cool when that happens
@@WallhacksYT lmao nah i like asap rocky too
Though he was gonna say "Aesop Rock, the original, ASAP Rocky, the fake."
Wtf is wrong with this comment section
Thank you Ali. May peace be upon you.
I've been waiting on this moment for ever and it was right here the whole time
Now every time u mention asoep people r like u mean ASAP right thanks alot
DayZero GAMMING whenever I pronounce it I overpronunciate everything. “AEY-SOP RAW-KUH”
Yeah, thats exactly what that pop-wankster had to have in mind when he jacked AESOPS name!
ECO dom lmao he didn’t have Aesop’s name in mind, even the pronunciation is different stop it
@@dontsettlefor500mill you’re in every comment spittin bull shit bro. Sad ass rap fan you are. Please provide facts on how he stole the name? I’ll wait.🤔
@@RANE303 Alright. You're lucky. I have a free minute to school you. I never claimed that ASAP straight-up stole the name. What is a fact, is that IF he was a true dedicated professional in the hip-hop game, he should be familiar with Aesop Rock. Maybe ASAP had that name since a young buck, but there should have been a moment when he became aware of Aesop Rock, who existed before him, and thoughtfully reconsidered his moniker choice. I'm sure he was not aware of his existence. Aesop is almost 45 years old. Asap is about 33.
Brother Ali looking down like "damn he really just said his name wrong"
He said asap rock smh 🤦♂️
I didn't like that they called him Asap. It's Aesop.
+Marcus Elgart oh shit my bad... are you sad that i said that? did it make you cry? i hope you replying to me made it all better,... Marfus Elfart
Nobody realizes how fucking geeky and surreal this moment is. Two word nerds, FROM THE SAME REGION, different generations. Is crazy.
Legendary hip hop moment very wholesome
aesop rock stans are so upset in these comments. jesus.
