"You're just a puppet like a marionette, marrying birds you just met, buried in debt." Y'all can't tell me Droog ain't nice with it...y'all just can't.
When this dude came to my city in a Royce/Premier concert, nobody knew who the fuck he was. But his wordplay, rhymes, stage presence, confidence impressed everyone the fuck out. I've been a fan since. He can rock shows easy. Everyone was talking about him after the show.
hes saying people wait in lines for these new sneaker releases and he doesnt like them at all. people in some neighborhoods throw old shoes on a phone wire (people say to signify drugs being sold in that area) and droog is saying now a days the new releases that people fight over arent even good enough for him to throw on a phone wire
Not only does YOD have mad sick bars… his concept albums have a fresh and different sound every time. Dude is the definition of a true artist. One of the few that I’m still constantly “checkin’ for”
Old Droog got a Nas sound... actually sounds just like him vocally and he spits some sick bars. Wish I was in time to vote for him on the XXL Freshman list.
Man there was this big speculation with Your Old Droog when he first got hot. niggas was saying it was Nas under a new name lol. Droog knew what he was doing cause there was no pictures of him online.
Damn, ya'll some haters. First rapper I've heard in a long while who's not talking about hoes, the club, getting high, selling drugs...Just cold hard bars. NYC stand up!
For real for real. I don't get why some good artists fuck wit Riff Raff. And why anyone would allow someone like Bizarre in a group with some actually talented artists (namely, of course, Proof). 2 Chainz does have a handful of good tracks tho, but only a handful. Check...pretty sure it's called P.I.M.P.S. ft. Bun B and Big K.R.I.T. (could be wrong on the title of that one, but if you jus search 2 Chainz, Bun, & KRIT you will def find it. And, believe it or not, that's actually a good track by Chainz). It's crazy tho...fuckin 4 years after your comment I'm posting this one and Droog justtt barely has more shine now than he did 4 years ago when you posted yours. *_SUCH_* a sad state that the hip hop game/culture, and by extension the entire world, is in today...
Sway this was the best Thanksgiving gift right here G. Patna went so hard in the paint on these multiple wack rappers with his freestyle. WHEW!! Definitely top 5. Happy to you Heather and Traci and The Staff!!
to say this dude aint nice is Phukin crazy ,the E P he dropped was nutz,the freestyles are fire ..,but of course if u dont Phuk with hip hop u aint Phukin with Droog.........
kids dope. im not surprised that he sounds like nas like that one dude sounds like ghost face. these are nice mc's that influence a younger generation. just like rakim influenced nas. no hate, just the way it is.
I think it was Kool G Rap who Nas was compared to. I don't think Droog sounds like Nas in the same way Bronson sounds like Ghost because I think Bronson is biting Ghosts whole style on a lot of his joints...
+kingman88 honestly the reason they sound like those rappers is the queens/brooklyn accent...if you listen to action talk he sound just like ghost and when droog talks he sounds just like a mix of nas and game
I can see how dude can be compared to nas just by his voice, but Bronson like ghost? when they say quick phrases in between verses FOR SURE, but if you put any 4 bars up from both of them the comparisons end immediately
ive been sincere since ears could hear. that bar stoopid ( droog gets alot of nas comparisons and " sincere" is the name of nas' character in the movie belly) craftsmanship
This dude is fire! Hands down the one of the best youngsters. He has bars for days and his freestyle game is top notch. Battle rap base with easy transitions and you can tell he gets lost in it. Storylines are above average in a 2.5 minute flow, his album is dope though. Eeal Hip Hop!
i can see where some are saying they arent getting where the hype is coming from with this cat kus some of the flows wasnt all that IMO. but frankly he stayed consistent and theres not much competition in todays market. ide listen to him over most of the saturated rap that takes up the radio.
Droog is dope! gotta give him his props. One of my new favorite rappers... his style is kinda nas, my favorite rapper of all times. they should do some music together.
It's a language thing cuz he Ukrainian and "droog" mean fren.. like most clockwork lingo was derived from Russian. Not some Kubrick shit but if that's how u found it, congrats. U found a dope rapper.
He ain't bad but he sounds more like game to me then nas. More of nas style though. I don't hate on nobody cuz they sound like another rapper cuz there is a lot of them out there that sound similar to one and another.
yeah he's the real DEAL…..when i first heard him i couldn't help but consider him from the school of NAS the great but now hearing him again i can hear more of his self in his skills he jus needs to figure it out and let HIM shine out of the NAS comparisons but also after hear his influences i can definitely hear BIG L and BEANS keep it up we need more like him !!!!
Y'all stop comparing new rappers to legends who been doing this for years and majority of em at this point is either washed up or retired. These comments are cringey asf, let droog have his own legacy. 💯💯💯💯
I was mad at people saying he's just "average" or "not even good" then I remember that we're at a time where Young Thug, Future (I actually like these two), Yachty etc are celebrated as goats. Never forget that haters always have more to say than supporters.
Dude, you're awesome! Add in Rakim to that and that is best MC of old school 80s golden era, best MC of old school 90s golden era and my favorite MC of the new era and my favorite least known MC of the new era.
Why some many of ya'll hating cause he's white or maybe ya'll thought it was Nas doing some alter ego shit and ya'll feel let down cause it wasn't Nas? Fuck that this dude got skills that would bury 60 percent of the trash that's out now. I heard some of his other shit This dude kicks some NY fire I dunno maybe everybody to into that durty south flow!! Hey to each his own
Yeah, either way his EP is dope. Didn't even know he had an LP and I know that Nutty Bars is on there. That track alone proves as a lyricists he's already in the top 10
Also, people just into the ignorant things. Because dope southern artists like Yelawolf or Big K.R.I.T (who's really been killing it on all his features and had a good album) don't get shine or enough of it. They're known but it's more like in the 2nd or 3rd tier, not compared to the "top" guys.
Your Old Droog and Alchemist should do a whole album together... thumbs up this shit if you agree
thisss
Premo,Pete Rock MR West, Black Milk
YO! what's the name of that ALC beat they gave DROOG?
HeaddressScreen The Alchemist - Bangers ft. Lloyd Banks off the 1st Infantry album ;)
and freddie gibbs!!!
These are the type of rappers the industry won"t let you know exist. Total respect for YOD,TGF& Mach-Hommy All of you are the true kings of hiphop.
hes mad talented but hes a complete asshole, his social media presence and the fact that he cant hold onto industry relationships prove it
1000000%
Camp Wisdom right there
Ummmmmm. Then why is he on Sway?
But Droog is insane and up there working towards the best story teller
CRIMEAPPLE and Boldy James too!
''saying my style is dated is like checking to see if wine expired'' bruh 🔥🔥🔥🔥
"You're just a puppet like a marionette, marrying birds you just met, buried in debt."
Y'all can't tell me Droog ain't nice with it...y'all just can't.
Buried in debt got me too. That line has hard.
Dude can rhyme. You can hear his influences pretty clearly but that's not always a bad thing
IntellectualDesp facts shits always inspired even NAS said no ideas original b
@@martyrmayne that’s a fact too. That goes for any genre
I mean yeah? That's the shit..!
Nas done influence most of the dopest rappers ever
Actually, scratch that. I just listened to pieces of this guys album and he's fire.
hes amazing check this out soundcloud.com/your-old-droog/where-the-rhymes-at-light-years-freestyle
he dropped something today !!
listen to the newest one? 2019
Absolutely the most underrated rapper alive. He is brilliant.
agreed
When this dude came to my city in a Royce/Premier concert, nobody knew who the fuck he was. But his wordplay, rhymes, stage presence, confidence impressed everyone the fuck out. I've been a fan since. He can rock shows easy. Everyone was talking about him after the show.
"While these herbs wait in line for kicks I wouldn't throw on a wire." Game over.
tv show 'The Wire' bar? i didnt watch it yet
hes saying people wait in lines for these new sneaker releases and he doesnt like them at all. people in some neighborhoods throw old shoes on a phone wire (people say to signify drugs being sold in that area) and droog is saying now a days the new releases that people fight over arent even good enough for him to throw on a phone wire
+Hemokinesis you might be the biggest herb for that comment lol
I agree.I must have been tired lol
yeah no two people seem to agree about the origin of the shoes on a wire thing, but yeah its a big new york tradition for whatever reason
Not only does YOD have mad sick bars… his concept albums have a fresh and different sound every time. Dude is the definition of a true artist. One of the few that I’m still constantly “checkin’ for”
He only sounds like nas SONICALLY. I don't think he raps like nas, he raps like an agressive New York rapper.
because he IS an agressive ny'er fam
So Nas
he sound like the Game the way he talk though
Nas isn’t an aggressive NY rapper? Lol
This comment makes zero sense.
"Get on the mic and spit that porno for pyros"
gah damn, that line was fire lmao
lol janes addiction other band lol
literally
@@MiguelRodriguez-vm8zm Perry Ferrell's other band***
Packing a line of fire, saying my style's dated is like checking to see if wine expired. Damn.
When the artifacts beat dropped...fresh as fuck..bring back that ole boombap
Haha, I love Sway's face as soon as Droog starts rapping. He really has an awesome hip hop voice.
I'd rather look broke in the 'burbs than be fresh in the slums.
God, that flow though. Time to Spotify this dude. He was fire on the Complex City Cypher! :D
Dude is so sick. Unbelievable beat selection, great delivery. IWEC is a great project too
Got the raps for you I ain't talking gyros.
#popeapproved
Old Droog got a Nas sound... actually sounds just like him vocally and he spits some sick bars. Wish I was in time to vote for him on the XXL Freshman list.
Man there was this big speculation with Your Old Droog when he first got hot. niggas was saying it was Nas under a new name lol. Droog knew what he was doing cause there was no pictures of him online.
Hes from Brooklyn, he's definitely inspired by New York styles
I never understood why people thought he sounded like nas, yeah his voice is a little foggy, but he sounds more like The Game mixed with MF DOOM.
Damn, ya'll some haters. First rapper I've heard in a long while who's not talking about hoes, the club, getting high, selling drugs...Just cold hard bars. NYC stand up!
I want to see Chief Keef do this. That would be funnier than a Kevin Hart movie.
Hahaha. If Chief Keef can eat off music no wonder rappers like riff raff 2chainz & bizarre from D12 have fanbases
but Kevin Hart movies aren't funny
nah no shit I would listen to 2 chainz b4 chief keef
For real for real. I don't get why some good artists fuck wit Riff Raff. And why anyone would allow someone like Bizarre in a group with some actually talented artists (namely, of course, Proof). 2 Chainz does have a handful of good tracks tho, but only a handful.

It's crazy tho...fuckin 4 years after your comment I'm posting this one and Droog justtt barely has more shine now than he did 4 years ago when you posted yours. *_SUCH_* a sad state that the hip hop game/culture, and by extension the entire world, is in today...
Droog just waiting for Sway to start preachin' in the end, solid!
fact that this only has a quarter mil views is fucking w me, definitely a top 3 freestyle out of all the 5 fingers of death
It makes me sad that dudes like this never popped off while mumble drill rappers make millions
Check out his newest album. Your Old Droog is still getting better.
It's a sad but accurate sign of where the artistic soul of society is at. The trash.
That's what the matrix pushes...garbage ass music instead of dudes like droog.
Droog is a true music lover his knowledge of music and rapping about it respect
Sway this was the best Thanksgiving gift right here G. Patna went so hard in the paint on these multiple wack rappers with his freestyle. WHEW!! Definitely top 5. Happy to you Heather and Traci and The Staff!!
Never even heard of this guy, he's good.
to say this dude aint nice is Phukin crazy ,the E P he dropped was nutz,the freestyles are fire ..,but of course if u dont Phuk with hip hop u aint Phukin with Droog.........

LOL @ "It's on iTunes, btw." This dude is straight beast-like
You know your dope when your voice alone makes beats better
Yodwave is unstoppable shoutout to The Unknown Comic
old droog is that 21ccentury rewind that lyricists, best references
Greatest to ever do it YOD
hot.. you can tell he rapped it off the top too. Love this man's work
Look at Sways face when Droog freestyles :DD
This dude is fire! Hands down the one of the best youngsters. He has bars for days and his freestyle game is top notch. Battle rap base with easy transitions and you can tell he gets lost in it. Storylines are above average in a 2.5 minute flow, his album is dope though. Eeal Hip Hop!

Not a curse word or a nigga, was spoken during that whoooole set...rakim style....gotta love it
is he black or white or mix
When he said “No sixth beat?” 😂😂 He’s nice with it
Orwell, R.L. Stine, and Dr. Seuss!!
Droog is dope! gotta give him his props. One of my new favorite rappers... his style is kinda nas, my favorite rapper of all times. they should do some music together.
Re-watch and only watch Sway: Says it all.
How does this only have 198k???
Dude is a beast.
droog is unrated afff. hes beast.
Wow! I was interested in the name from being a Kubrick fan from the start, but once I heard the lyrics...this guy is killing it.
It's a language thing cuz he Ukrainian and "droog" mean fren.. like most clockwork lingo was derived from Russian. Not some Kubrick shit but if that's how u found it, congrats. U found a dope rapper.
"You gotta save some rhymes for Tony Touch and 'em" - LOLLL
Sway was glazing bro said " I'm like a mix" and sway did the Jazz Face
i love the way sway covering his mouth by the time yod start rapping
Y'all crazy if don't think this dude has studied Nas his whole life. His nice though.
He ain't bad but he sounds more like game to me then nas. More of nas style though. I don't hate on nobody cuz they sound like another rapper cuz there is a lot of them out there that sound similar to one and another.
+Big Pav ΑΛΟΥ dope pic long live CK
A person could study Nas for a lifetime & not be 1/5 as nice as droog is.
i agree
he sounds more like nas from us who was there growing up on nas.
I love when ever sway comes out with the "YOU WHACK ASS MOTHERFUCKAS"
had to buy the Album immediately!! sick!!
Droog is nice
yeah he's the real DEAL…..when i first heard him i couldn't help but consider him from the school of NAS the great but now hearing him again i can hear more of his self in his skills he jus needs to figure it out and let HIM shine out of the NAS comparisons but also after hear his influences i can definitely hear BIG L and BEANS keep it up we need more like him !!!!
this aint really the 5 fingers cause all beats had similar tempo. but he sounds good need to peep him
Y'all stop comparing new rappers to legends who been doing this for years and majority of em at this point is either washed up or retired. These comments are cringey asf, let droog have his own legacy. 💯💯💯💯
My favorite artist out NY right now.
Droog is the Don,on the mic...
ALCH WHERE YOU AT!
never heard of this dude, he killed that shit
def gonna check out more
Fuck yeah yo, finally got some raw talent. Been commenting for the longest 4 sway to get droog on the air.
This video should have more views.
How does this only have 185k?
Dude is nasty, his voice sounds like Nas but his flow is a mix of MF Doom and Sean P.
sehr genial , kommt richtig gut rüber !
yesss the last beat is quasimoto. he killed this
Last rhyme was the illest!!!
Sometimes the Almighty blesses us with a gift to allow others to speaks for the unspoken masses. Facto Salute King.
I was mad at people saying he's just "average" or "not even good" then I remember that we're at a time where Young Thug, Future (I actually like these two), Yachty etc are celebrated as goats.
Never forget that haters always have more to say than supporters.
I’m here 4/28/2019 and this shit still fire 🔥
CRAZY! THIS IS MY DUDE!
I'm feeling this guy. Dope lyrics and that Big Pun/Nas voice. That Sex Pistols line was ill.
Murdered it in 5 seconds, rest was just afterkill
Nas really looks different nowadays
OhMan Goddamn stfu
Uncluded bro how did I not catch that untill now. Regardless dude can spit.
Yo, what's that last beat? The one with the sax. That shit is mad fire.
Its wrong side of the tracks
See this is why race don't matter, its the environment that brings you up.
His transportation album is dope..
He sounds like The Game
Best rapper alive
Yoo he nice, and Sway snapped at end!
Nas x your old droog x joey bada$$ = illest collab
Dude, you're awesome! Add in Rakim to that and that is best MC of old school 80s golden era, best MC of old school 90s golden era and my favorite MC of the new era and my favorite least known MC of the new era.
HE GOES IN!
DROOG IS THAT WORK!!
Why some many of ya'll hating cause he's white or maybe ya'll thought it was Nas doing some alter ego shit and ya'll feel let down cause it wasn't Nas? Fuck that this dude got skills that would bury 60 percent of the trash that's out now.

Nelson Gonzalez lol Droog ain't even white. Ukrainians aren't white.
Asher Thompson Most Europeans are white so i don't know what you talking about. Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Nelson Gonzalez Western Europeans and Northern Europeans are white. Eastern and Southern Europeans are not.
That was nice Droog
This is fire as hell and not even near as good as the bars on his projects y’all are crazy
Sway having such a good time up in there haha from the first bar
Anyone got the list of beats used on this?
yeah I know all of them, lemme know if you still want em
Imagine if Nas and Droog doing a song together. Would have been confusing but dope as fuck tho lol
Ill, nuff said regardless of color or comparisons it's still refreshing.
The first beat is soo good
What is the first instrumental, anybody know? I've heard that beat before, YOD is so dope
4:52
Get em' Sway.
I was unware that this was another Ghostface and Action Bronson situation. I notice the differences no problems.
Wasn't ready for that last bar.
NY!!!
Aggressive NY rap.
You be marrying birds you just met very in debt BAR
