You're right. I'm 37...but I guess that's an old head😢. And I always look for rappers under 40 who are the next fire hip hop act, and this song was fire
It’s not that we ain’t open minded, we just know good hip hop when we hear it. Main stream hip hop was (still imo) really going off the rails for a while cuz these youngins are so hell bent on making their own sound that they lost sight of creating quality music. Mumble rap, emo rap, rapping to metal..all acts of desperation to be “different”. Then turn around and lie to everyone including themselves saying that they think it’s good and they like it. Then us “old heads” keep it real and label it booty as it should be..that’s when we get called closed minded or not open to new rap. Idk though just my opinion.
I’m happy for the re upload otherwise I would have never found this , this is amazing….. it’s like I was under a spell for. Few years with average rap lol this brings me back to my joy for talent.
It's almost as if J.I.D. J. Cole and EarthGang are giving me hope for the direction of rap as it's own Genre that can elevate , aleviate and be a general force of mad decentness
Yo yes. Honestly they're in a league of their own. (White guy late 20s here but diverse upbringing.....this message is powerful af and I, too, am looking for peace amongst.

Might be a bit of a stretch but I got a theory. Maybe they uploaded this again to put Earthgang / Jid back into our minds (like they ever left), because one of them is gonna properly drop soon. I know they both gotta be sitting on finished / near finished albums by now.

Honestly, J.I.D. is underrated as a rapper. The boy is incredibly talented.

In what way is he underrated?????
this why us old heads need to be open minded. There is some great Hip Hop being made. This is an example
Ur right .. ever since the lil pump and those like him I lost hope. But kids like this .. they care about the music and the words they say.

I imagine a new Earthgang album is coming soon this re-upload and they were on the 85 south show
Two words: UNDER RATED
Song so good you gotta upload it twice.
Bro. I just want to say missing this video amongst others in my playlist does not go unnoticed. Certain songs I listen to 20 to 30 times a week. Don't know why the original was taking down
Everything I listen to with either J.I.D. or EARTHGANG is a complete banger. So much talent at Dreamville, shit is goalz right there~
This made my heart beat deep as hell in my soul. Mad respect for the artistry and so much more for what it invokes. 🙏
This jawn go hard much respect from Philly 🔥
This song set the bar for me. Beats hard, bars harder.
let’s get this back to a hundred million views lol
Mannnn this joint bout 2yrs old and I heard it then. . But i was today yrs old when I heard that guy jid say. Yo girl ride the the C train to come ride the D mann,,,,. Ok.

The music beats and lyrics are top tier 🙌 💯 🔥
Mad respect for Earthgang and J.I.D because people sleep on them for too long
Reupload but still 🔥 🔥 🔥!!
Bumping this before my fb games
The talent in this is a killer
Honestly after this i would be terrified to try to make another album and try to one up myself cause its near perfection
the vocal sample in this beat is harrowing.
sounds almost as if the souls of long lost slaves can be still be heard crying out for redemption.
That’s really fuckin deep
Stop smoking

This was and is still a classic why lie , rewatching it from Nairobi Kenya 🇰🇪👊🏾💪🏾

Rather than getting medicated, I prefer being meditated
Let's get meditated y'all !
Not at all how mental health works but go off.

I love this song!
Saludos desde Argentina, Buenos Aires

Goated song. Should be an anthem.
Think this was one of the first tunes i heard from JID.. as glad as I am grateful for that piece 🙏
Why'd they take this down? Earthgang and JID speak truth !!
Genius to re-release this.✨
I really don't know if Earthgang and JID can even make a bad song. These are the people keeping my hope in rap alive.
Damnn I aint even know a vid dropped for this🔥🔥 never too late!
Still looking for peace in America
One LOVE! Give thanks

Lyrics
(Lay, sleep, wake up, lay... down, sleep
Uh, wake up
Cry, eat, sleep, world...)
Everybody-uh
Everybody-uh
Okay, everybody wanna be a nigga, but nobody wanna be a nigga when it's time to be a nigga
If you thinkin' it, then say it, when you see a nigga; please be clear, I rhyme, I do not mind read
I ride the beat then have your girl ride the C-train to me to ride the D
And give me brain, and you can see the stains I place upon the sheet-oh, you gon' come for me?
Well, my nigga, you better have an army at least-more than a gun for me
I'm more than a man, not a God, but the boy is a man, we ignore all the noise from the outlandish
Standout with the cannon, outstandin' south bandit, don't panic, please, 'cause if I get nervous we get un-sturdy and we start to squeeze
[Johnny Venus:]
Okay, niggadom
Nigga from nigga slum
Blue tongue, red tongue
Nigga flavors, go 'head, son, get you some
Nigga got a lot of gifts
But package store was always open
Jail house don't ever close
And my world view was always shut
Trap spot was always bunkin'
Neighborhood was always crunk
See I was outside riskin' snakes eyes
With my life chances, stakes high
Only outlet was the moon walk
Michael Jackson dances, so shuck and jive, nigga, bust a nine
Shoot behind the line, my only advances
USA eat me like a cancer
UK eat me like a cancer
Gettin' money and they tag the crib
Ask King James, "what's the fucking answer?"
Still a nigga out in Calabasas
Still a nigga when I greet the masses
Oval office, presidential grasses
When I fuck my white girl and I meet her daddy
I know deep down inside, man, he hate that shit
Plotting for the perfect time to bury me
Nigga, please, show 'em the green like a caddy
Venus, Serena them daddy
But that shit don't change my appearance
Asians like, "That's my nigga"
Latins like, "That's my nigga"
White folks like, "That's my nigga"
'Til it's time to die, bye, bye, nigga
Now don't get offended, I was just giving you hard time
Come to your block, give you hard line
My, did I come at the wrong time?
But see I sent comets to the Earth
Me, I was humming at your birth
I put colors on the spectrum
I let you assign them worth
Looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you
Looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you
I be looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you, ooh
Looking for peace when I stare at you
[Doctur Dot:]
You know I'm here for the nigga shit
Whole life been nigga rich
Since my momma let a project nigga hit
Set it up so when I meet the reaper
Let my son reap the benefits
Nigga shit on social media
Get a nigga pinched, end up in the pen
Surrender your independence 'til the sentence finished
Even with no pot you got a cup to piss in
Burning bridges with my tunnel vision
Bitches leave niggas for cunnilingus
Fuck me like her nigga non-existent
No negativity, niggativity
Why you being silly fucking with me
Giggity giggity
When I'm in the city
They like, Doc you litty
Not as lit as I'm finna be
I just wake up and do shit differently
I can never say they doubted my ability
Along the way some niggas just wasn't feeling me
Niggas lost faith and quit on me
I just tuck 'em in the back of my memory
One monkey don't stop no show, my niggas got goals and responsibilities
So you know by any means, really mean any and everything to the team
Nothing off limits nigga, ain't gon' keep shit clean
Me and my niggas them niggas that they should've never let go free
Niggas got me talking through my teeth like I'm 50 Cent in '03
Ain't no Kunta Kinte, nigga Toby what they told me
"What it's gon' be?"
[Johnny Venus:]
Looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you
Looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you
I be looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you, ooh
Looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you
Looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you
I be looking for peace in America
Looking for peace when I stare at you, ooh
Looking for peace when I stare at you
[DC Young Fly:]
Lift them tities up, thank you
Oh let go then, AY
Finna pick these niggas up
Aye man get the fuck out my way boy this the lyft driver
Yuh, boy I shoot your ass
Aight nigga uhhh
Smoking in the carI ain't got no gun fuck the police ay
Cool me up with this shit, eat this shit
He need to come on man 'fore I cancel the trip
I do need to work though so I ain't going to cancel it
Might be a bit of a stretch but I got a theory. Maybe they uploaded this again to put Earthgang / Jid back into our minds (like they ever left), because one of them is gonna properly drop soon. I know they both gotta be sitting on finished / near finished albums by now.
Good call
