Gotta say, from writing to production, this EP just stands tall in your discography. Not saying older ones are bad, but this EP has a very special charm to it. Everything feels so professional but also intimate, if it makes any sense.
I've said it before, but it often feels like every track she puts out is her best one. Dice is *constantly* improving her work and it's greatly appreciated.
Wow I didn't expected to see you here! I always loved to watch your streams and videos but discovering that you are listening demondice made me love you more.
This song reminds me a lot of "you're an ace, kid" in it's presentation of (what I believe is) the message that despite all the weight of the past and the present, it's up to us to make the best of it and not let it drag us down. Even after all the bull that's come and gone since "Alkatraz," I find it somewhat poetic that your last song here "rhymes" with your last song there, that you've not been deterred from that mindset and you're still standing strong against it all. And to that I say, hell yeah. EDIT: Also I know I've certainly oversimplified the meaning, there are a lot of layers XD
This is the perfect track to cap off the journey that is this EP. There's a somewhat triumphant feeling to this song with its sentiment of looking forward despite the hardships and sorrows. All in all, this is an amazing EP. Great work DD.
I really like 2 sentences in this song: - "The young searching for more, become living expense" - "There no road loaded with silver and gold, it just a treasure you make for you" These two sentences scream in my face that don't just accept being used, work, then die. It motivated me to do more for myself and my family. Thanks Demondice for another amazing song.
After the raw emotions and darker tone of the other three songs, this finale is so cathartic! It doesn’t shy away from, dismiss, or say good-bye to the pain and mistakes that came before, nor does it gloss over the fact that there will surely still be hard times ahead. To me, it’s a triumphant song about the serenity found in accepting the dark with the light and the inner-strength that can only be achieved through facing your demons. The song may be “fake ass gold” but the hook is bonafide gold. “Survive. Thrive. You are alive. Don’t let em tell ya two and two makes five.” Goddamn! DDK, you took that baseball bat you carry and you smashed this EP out of the park. Helluva way to kick off 2022! Thank you so much for being you, and thanks for the blood, sweat, and tears put into your music. It’s incredible, inspiring, and I love it. Take it from the top, let’s loop it again!
What a fantastic song to end the EP! I love how it feels like a culmination of the themes of the other songs yet adds its own message: life may be full of struggles and to reach success can take a difficult journey, but putting in the work creates your own rewards. Also, I want to bring attention to how awesome the sound effects are! They don't distract from the song, being just enough to spice it up; good additions! Thank you so, so much for doing what you do. You've helped so many people, and please never forget you are appreciated. Once again, thank you. ❤️
Yeah. It's a complex thing in the context of the EP as a whole. Basically it's easy to lose sight of how much you have if ambition (which is good) twists your vision into seeing only what you don't have and maybe you think you should. Also similarly, the path of struggles can blind you to the good things. It can be easy to lose sight of the people on your side if you let yourself get surrounded by negativity.
This one feels a bit like "You're an Ace Kid" in that the lyrics are still cynical and grounded, but the message comes off as encouraging to me. This entire EP was incredible DD! Can't wait to see what the surprise is. Edit: YO WTF SHE'S STREAMING IN 10 HOURS!!👀
@@ruz01_7 I got so excited when she said that! Though I noticed that a few others here made the same comparison. Her explanation of all the songs made me love this EP even more.
The beat feels so 90s. Especially in beginning. I dig it. And the lyrics? They got depth to them. The only treasure on this road are the ones you make for yourself....damn.
This is literally everything i could ever ask for in a DD song. Catchy, and with a good message too. Her singing has improved a lot at zero risk of any of her other songwriting abilities. "Don't take what you have for granted, and certainly don't sell it all away goin after something that's gilded rock at best." A good finale to another banger album. I can already tell 2022 is gonna kick ass
Damn bro, song after song. I've only heard a few seconds of this one and it's already great. I love the piano. DemonDice coming back with a triumphant return for us to enjoy multiple pieces. Update after listening to more of the song: I love it. Completely up to par with all of her other works. It flows well together, rhymes perfectly in so many places and just generally sounds amazing, with the instrumental really emphasizing the lyrics to beautiful effect. This is an amazing song, just like the rest. She just doesn't miss. The meaning behind the lyrics to great as well, a little subtle, but still generally obvious that anyone could pick up on it.
Excited to see your first new EP since becoming a fan! Thanks for the great music. Gotta say, I used to feel a bit like this, thinking if I'd just reach some arbitrary level of success that I'd have nothing to feel bad about...and it really hasn't. There's so much difference between what people are told they may want and what any given person might actually value in their lives. I've been far happier with the idea of just being able to share my art with friends and others who appreciate it, even many people I look up to as fellow creators, and I've got to say thanks for sharing your work to inspire that kind of passion in me the past couple years.
as the old saying goes: "All that glitters is not gold." the real treasure in life really are the friendships and love and tenderness and courage we found along the way keep being you, DD, you are a great person
The use of hollowed instead of hallowed threw me at first, so much i wondered if it was a typo, but I think I might get it now. Something about the phrase "pyrite skies" made me smile.
Every demondice songs that she has realeased while it has a really great rhytm, but the lyrics are what I really like the most. It conveys many hardship and I think people really resonates with it
I think this is a great end to the EP. Demondice had a very intense track "take the bait" and a melancholic song with "dark hour," but she chooses to end the EP with a song with her original style to remind us that she's still in control after all.
I really like how this turns around the mood of this EP. Starting off with a venting about the struggles of the life you're living, a peek into your life so we understand what you're going through, and hearing how hard it is to handle it all, then finishing with a reminder that none of it is enough to keep you down because you're damn determined to make the most of the life you've gotten. This was beautiful, thank you DDK.
"The world's a nasty place of happy faces, painted on masks and if you say it unironically, the internet laughs" Man... that pretty much sums up where my depression has come from ever since I grew to be an adult and realized how much of everything is just a facade. I hate that we can't just be more straightforward with our _actual_ feelings in this world and every time I try to do so, I'm either ridiculed or looked at funny. It's anxiety inducing for sure.
I heard that lyrics and instantly thought of Dream's song, Mask. He's got a happy face painted on a mask, and he tried to do something serious and tackle a topic much more mature than his audience and the internet laughed. Its a great reference imo, though this interpretation could simply be wrong.
I keep on coming back to this song, it has absolutely blown me away. Im not sure if Karen reads these comments but I hope a vinyl is produced. Id love to buy it. Shirt Gang where you at?
Definitely the most hopeful sounding one of these so far to me. Gives me real "Pick yourself back up, hike up your pants, and keep swinging" vibes. The kinda song some people need to hear.
Siempre ame su musica desde que la descubri. Pero la verdad este EP reventó todo. Es muy bueno. Y siempre es genial tener nueva música para escuchar on repeat.
You inspire me DD. You're so real and you don't sugarcoat things, as life does indeed suck a lot of times, but you still are an optimist that knows there will come good things too! It's a pretty quick observation I know, but I had to say it, you really make me wanna try harder whenever I feel down.
This EP is absolutely wonderful, and the meanings behind each song really does hit hard. I am so glad that of all days for this EP to end, it is the “anniversary” of the day I found DD’s music. Absolutely my personal favorite artist, and I wish everyone a pleasant day with these new beats.
A lot of people have been making comparisons to You’re an Ace, Kid, and yeah it’s very similar. But what I really like about it is that it’s kind of like an epilogue or addendum to Ace. Ace is about not giving up when an opportunity doesn’t live up to your expectations. Someone chased gold only to find pyrite, and it’s basically saying “keep trying and eventually you’ll find that gold!” This song is from someone more experienced. Someone who had coke to realize that the gold won’t bring them happiness, and that the real treasure was the friends made along the way.
This song in particular resonates with me, the acknowledgement that things go wrong but you can still get through it and find something worthwhile is super calming. 100/10 gold star
I really love those last few lines. They're so uplifting and make for a great ending to the EP. It contrasts really well with the mood the rest of the EP has. Which shows not everything is doom and gloom. That sometimes the real treasure is what you have right infront of you. That being the future you make for yourself. You just gotta take initiative, be the master of your destiny. Its pretty inspirational. "There will be days of sorrow, know we'll be knowing better, there will be a tomorrow" Those really lit a fire in my heart. It makes me want to try harder, even it things are tough, because there's a better day ahead of me. That's at least what I took from those last few lines.
you know, it has happended before that at first a demondice song don't click at first, but something make you come back and listen it again and again, now I just love this song; may be is the meaning in the lyrics, may be is something else, but it kinda cheer me up.
This kind of music ain't always my cup of tea, but there's something about this EP I find really compelling. Your work is very interesting to me, and I really love what I'm hearing, you can tell it's from a place of sincerity and deep reflection. Basically, great stuff, DD! Can't wait to hear more from you in the future!
I'm actually really glad you chose to put this song today, I feel this one the most. To tell the truth, you put this album out just at the right time as I'm currently at the lowest point of my life, bar none. I won't go into details, but I'm trying to turn things around and your songs helped cushion the drop. I'm thankful you came back and made these songs, I look forward to hear more future songs, if possible. You rock, DD.
Man. This is one of those songs where you're bopping along to it at first, and then you just gotta stop and reflect on what's actually being said, and you realize "damn..... this is art."
I haven’t listened to the full ep yet and only to them one at a time as they’ve dropped on RUclips. I’m glad I’ve gotten a bit more time to process them but this one is my favorite so far.
I mean this as a compliment by the way. For some reason, this song reminds me of the style used for knuckles in the Sonic Adventure game. Like Jesus the bars in this song are good, and they sound so natural in the flow.
This is such a freaking awesome banger. It's impossible not to groove and dance along with the song. I really do love the melancholic, yet still optimistic and uplifting theme and story to the song. It starts with all of the reasons you wanted to reach for those goals and go down this musical journey, but it also shows the legitimate dangers and personal costs of being selfish on that journey and taking advantage of people to achieve what you sought after. I like that very open and honest nature to the song. But, I love the ending and how it tells you to value the people closest to you, the ones who you support you through it all. If you can learn to recognize the true treasures in your life, like the genuine love and support of those who're there for you, you'll get farther and be more fulfilled than going for a hollow, unattainable goal or "fake ass gold." Brilliant work, DDK. I love how you can communicate such a complex and meaningful message while making a badass bop that just makes you want to dance is real talent. Thanks for this song and this entire EP. It was an amazing line up of S tier quality songs. It's great to have you back, DDK. There's no one who makes music quite like you. You're the real gold here. Also, that spoken intro to the song was the best. "When I feel like dyin, then I start rhymin." Classic DemonDice. Not cringe at all. That gave me a good laugh. Love that cheesy, goofy, yet honest side of you, DDK. Welcome back.
Well, RUclips kept recommending videos and clips of you. I had no fucking idea why, never saw you before. Listened to the songs, now I know why. You got another sub and fan, nice music to add to my collection
Not to sound cringe, but as someone that had a real low in life a couple years ago this song really speaks to me. Went from nearly homeless alcoholic to graduating college with an engineering degree.
Hope shits been good for you man, glad to hear about that stuff. Its always nice to see peoples stories of how they turned their lives around so keep it up
@@Routam it's still rough some days, I started drinking to cope with a disability so, still disabled lol. But yeah degree in software engineering, so I can work from home when I need to.
"Proofs in what you put in" God damn it lmao, great line though. This is by far my favourite track, the piano the backing, it really hits like a late 2000's track. So good.
I love you so much. Your music means more to me than I can explain in words, and has helped me through so much. You have so much talent and always leave me speechless with what you do. Keep up what you’re doing DD ~
Wow. I mean WOW, this one hits differently doesn't it? Thank you Demondice, you're a true inspiration for so many reasons. I'm in genuine awe of your lyrics. This EP has been a fantastic ride.
I love the message that you can have fake ass gold(something you treasure) and still cherish what you have, even if other people find it worthless and hate on you because of it.
The message of this song is very powerful, and it speaks to a lot of the disillusionment i've been feeling recently with people and the internet So to you DD, and to everyone else here, remember that you are stronger than those who would try and bring you down, and if you rise above it they can't hurt you x
Can definitely connect with this one a lot through life. Trying to find a "nice path" to follow from expectations and promises. shit's never that easy but have to just keep on moving forward and make your own happiness on the way.
This song... it's basically what I'm going through now with my swimming career, as well as the person I'll be 2 1/2 years from now. I don't know what aspired you to make this song, but I know you had to go through a lot of pain and grief. This entire EP has a personality to it that I've never heard before, and I LOVE it. You're amazing. (That "for lies and Pyrite skies" hit me like a freight train. That was brilliant!)
I won't pretend to know what's going through DD's mind. But to me, this reminds me that I got comfortable because I'm living easy. I forgot about the mountain I had to climb to get here. I'm just now waking up to see the higher peaks I've yet to reach, but the fire is back. That pitch made of big dreams and heartbreak burns hot, all it takes is a spark.
Gotta say, from writing to production, this EP just stands tall in your discography. Not saying older ones are bad, but this EP has a very special charm to it. Everything feels so professional but also intimate, if it makes any sense.

im pretty sure we still got one more coming
sorry but what is the meaning of EP?
@@meltonvince332 it means extended play, it’s sorta like a shorter album which is usually 10-15 songs I think?
💗
DD always drops bangers🔥
I really like 2 sentences in this song:
- "The young searching for more, become living expense"
- "There no road loaded with silver and gold, it just a treasure you make for you"
These two sentences scream in my face that don't just accept being used, work, then die. It motivated me to do more for myself and my family.

Not to burst your bubble, but there is one more hidden video in the playlist on the channel. It's not over yet I don't think!
It's sad how the most talented our not as successful as the mainstream trash
Will this be on the Spotify?
Yeah. It's a complex thing in the context of the EP as a whole. Basically it's easy to lose sight of how much you have if ambition (which is good) twists your vision into seeing only what you don't have and maybe you think you should. Also similarly, the path of struggles can blind you to the good things. It can be easy to lose sight of the people on your side if you let yourself get surrounded by negativity.
@@Chuito12PR It's likely the one that got badly rendered indeed, because that was Take the Bait and the privated one is right before it.
The meaning behind the lyrics of this song is amazing. The vibe is like one of those you play in a car. I love the goofiness of DD in here too ❤️
"thrive, survive, you are alive"
in some really low points keeping these words in my head, it always helps me feel better
This one feels a bit like "You're an Ace Kid" in that the lyrics are still cynical and grounded, but the message comes off as encouraging to me. This entire EP was incredible DD! Can't wait to see what the surprise is.

@@dirtie6058 Yep! It's from "take the bait" as it's my favorite on the EP.

Even if “DemonDice” left rap doesn’t mean the person behind DemonDice did, that’s all i’ll Say.
@@NxrthSide118 agreed
I like Demondice's flow. Forthright, consistent, and clear.
That line mentioning pyrite is great. Almost called it pure gold, glad I caught myself 💀
The use of hollowed instead of hallowed threw me at first, so much i wondered if it was a typo, but I think I might get it now.
Something about the phrase "pyrite skies" made me smile.

This one had me non-stop physically jamming from 0:39 to 3:25, it doesn't stop. This one's really good. Pyrite skies... bravo.
Man. This is one of those songs where you're bopping along to it at first, and then you just gotta stop and reflect on what's actually being said, and you realize "damn..... this is art."
jesus christ this song fucking owns so hard. still hits as hard as it did the very first time
Just found this. Instantly going into the playlist.
Wholesome final track.
I haven’t listened to the full ep yet and only to them one at a time as they’ve dropped on RUclips. I’m glad I’ve gotten a bit more time to process them but this one is my favorite so far.
❤️❤️❤️
by far my favorite song in the ep, the flow, and the groove in the music is so perfect.
謝謝!
I'm listening to this EP like. One time each day.
Damn man you're pumping these out, must've had a lineup ready right?
Yeah she released these 4 as an EP a couple days ago on other platforms
I mean this as a compliment by the way. For some reason, this song reminds me of the style used for knuckles in the Sonic Adventure game. Like Jesus the bars in this song are good, and they sound so natural in the flow.
My life hasn't been filled with much gold, but those pieces I do have are very precious to me.
The songs keep coming and they don’t stop coming
You know you have a banger of an album when a song this good is considered underrated.
I ADORE the early Kanye energy of this beat, hell yes. Always have time for piano, soul claps and a pitched up vocal.
All the songs on this release are slick as hell. I love the beats.
I based a D&D character off of this song and he's now my favorite PC I've ever made.
i've thought it was "you had your bitches then you kissed em goodbye" for a solid week. my life is a lie
That laugh in the beginning cured my sadness for today, 10/10
This is such a freaking awesome banger. It's impossible not to groove and dance along with the song. I really do love the melancholic, yet still optimistic and uplifting theme and story to the song. It starts with all of the reasons you wanted to reach for those goals and go down this musical journey, but it also shows the legitimate dangers and personal costs of being selfish on that journey and taking advantage of people to achieve what you sought after. I like that very open and honest nature to the song. But, I love the ending and how it tells you to value the people closest to you, the ones who you support you through it all. If you can learn to recognize the true treasures in your life, like the genuine love and support of those who're there for you, you'll get farther and be more fulfilled than going for a hollow, unattainable goal or "fake ass gold." Brilliant work, DDK. I love how you can communicate such a complex and meaningful message while making a badass bop that just makes you want to dance is real talent. Thanks for this song and this entire EP. It was an amazing line up of S tier quality songs. It's great to have you back, DDK. There's no one who makes music quite like you. You're the real gold here. Also, that spoken intro to the song was the best. "When I feel like dyin, then I start rhymin." Classic DemonDice. Not cringe at all. That gave me a good laugh. Love that cheesy, goofy, yet honest side of you, DDK. Welcome back.
No road is loaded with silver and gold, it's just the treasure that you make for you.
Salute, DEMONDICE! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have become obsessed with this song. This is now my top favorite on the album.
your music has saved my life, and i really mean that
thank you
This is the new anthem fr. Makes me wanna cry and follow my dreams so good
Well, RUclips kept recommending videos and clips of you. I had no fucking idea why, never saw you before.
Listened to the songs, now I know why. You got another sub and fan, nice music to add to my collection
Love how she mentioned ‘Pyrite sky’
Pyrite is also known as “Fool’s Gold” cus of it’s light golden colour and abundance. It’s kinda like a fake gold.
Really needed this today. Thanks again for everything. You rock.
" When i feel lying dyin' then i start ryhmin' "
This explains why DD always rhymes.
Not to sound cringe, but as someone that had a real low in life a couple years ago this song really speaks to me. Went from nearly homeless alcoholic to graduating college with an engineering degree.
Hope shits been good for you man, glad to hear about that stuff. Its always nice to see peoples stories of how they turned their lives around so keep it up
@@Routam it's still rough some days, I started drinking to cope with a disability so, still disabled lol. But yeah degree in software engineering, so I can work from home when I need to.
Good on you! very nice!
Bro your story is not "cringe" and anyone who says other wise is not worth listening to. Believe in yourself 👍
"Proofs in what you put in" God damn it lmao, great line though.
This is by far my favourite track, the piano the backing, it really hits like a late 2000's track. So good.
Nobody's talking about it but the minimalist art has impact for some reason. I just love everything about this production.
Best of the new songs hands down
This song rings diferent today.. i can see butterflyes listenig to this
Your music is always incredible
Dropping a whole album on us Dice? I’m not complaining these are damn good
I love you so much. Your music means more to me than I can explain in words, and has helped me through so much. You have so much talent and always leave me speechless with what you do. Keep up what you’re doing DD ~
I like how she uses the word "cringe" it just makes me laugh every time.
Wow. I mean WOW, this one hits differently doesn't it? Thank you Demondice, you're a true inspiration for so many reasons. I'm in genuine awe of your lyrics. This EP has been a fantastic ride.
SO MANY BANGERS
I love the message that you can have fake ass gold(something you treasure) and still cherish what you have, even if other people find it worthless and hate on you because of it.
The message of this song is very powerful, and it speaks to a lot of the disillusionment i've been feeling recently with people and the internet
So to you DD, and to everyone else here, remember that you are stronger than those who would try and bring you down, and if you rise above it they can't hurt you x
This gives me Lin Manuel Miranda vibes, and it's just wonderful.
How tf are you so skilled, DDK???
Can definitely connect with this one a lot through life. Trying to find a "nice path" to follow from expectations and promises. shit's never that easy but have to just keep on moving forward and make your own happiness on the way.
.... this song has made me realize so many things about life and single handedly upgraded my emotional maturity in 3 mins just by hearing it. i love u
The beats on this track are some of my favorites, and I can hear your emotion in the lyrics.
This song... it's basically what I'm going through now with my swimming career, as well as the person I'll be 2 1/2 years from now. I don't know what aspired you to make this song, but I know you had to go through a lot of pain and grief. This entire EP has a personality to it that I've never heard before, and I LOVE it. You're amazing. (That "for lies and Pyrite skies" hit me like a freight train. That was brilliant!)
I won't pretend to know what's going through DD's mind. But to me, this reminds me that I got comfortable because I'm living easy. I forgot about the mountain I had to climb to get here. I'm just now waking up to see the higher peaks I've yet to reach, but the fire is back. That pitch made of big dreams and heartbreak burns hot, all it takes is a spark.
I use this song as a musical headbutt to my less open friends.
