photo is printscreen from a video made by TKTK Media. I don't own a rights.
2023 and still waiting patiently for the despot album to drop
I know, drives me nuts!
I took my 11 yr old son to see him with El-P and Killer Mike he got to meet all of them it was his first show it was a great show in Cleveland Ohio!
goin down in history as coolest ever!!
Dude adopt me please
dude's son is 20 now. still no Despot album.
@@devinthaduud1862 actually insane to think about lol
@@devinthaduud1862 lmao, this. I still have a mixtape my buddy gave me of his stuff when I was like 16, I'm in my 30s now.
[Verse 1: Despot]
Every time a bell rings an angel gets a headache
The other shoulder's home to a devil yelling "checkmate"
Fix it on your own with a pebble and some stretch-fate
Patron saint of "Take away the pain at the best rates"
Just take two of these and call me in the morning
Match a color to your sickness quick and skim over the warnings
Or take two more and try to dial "dead"
Now that's one less thing to think about while getting out of bed
Doctor said feeling bad's not reserved for the stupid
I can't make it better but I'll see through that you sleep through it
Broken brain, blue, scoopin' a crude capsule of nooses
Bring us your blank stares we'll fill 'em in with abuses
How many milligrams to kill a common cold?
And how many more to make you forget that you're getting old?
The best package for expending your misery in the gold
Treasure-digging in that mammoth pile of out with the old
In with the new miracle medicine, easier living regimen
Knowing is half the battle, retiring forgetful veterans
Shoulders slumped over a barrel of you'll never be upset again
Locked and loaded, escaped, it ain't half as cloudy as heaven is
Reveling picking a kingdom fit for you
While the rest of them are toiling over tying their shoes
One to your health, and another put your mind on something else
Famous sleep deprived city finally found itself help
[Hook: Despot]
A few clicks of the cap to feel better
A new trick to attract a big spender
Come get a spot in line for a feel-good bender
Why settle? Change your mind, limited supplies, enter
And I hope you get well soon
Jump on the speedy recovery boom
Yeah I hope you get well soon
Get on that speedy recovery boom
[Verse 2: Despot]
Kicked that old non-habit-forming shit
Mr. go and stub your toe on a childproof lid
Spoonful of sugar chasing down a reason to live
Smooth pusher pulling pleasure out disease with a twist
Flick of the wrist pops open the pearly gates, slow traffic
Break the only egg you got and put fragments in seven baskets
'Til you counting amount of colored bottles lining your jacket
Reassurance is standing right under God's magnet
Look it up, that's the stuff. Take an extra one for luck
Grubby finger reaching down to pull you out of the muck
Same hands that fashioned man scribbled frenzied 'til they blister
Make the pad blast cures out as quick as he could script 'em
That's all it did, just puddled with the putty of creation
Only take a break to point at the direction where the pain went
Great, here's another one, pummel 'em 'til the brain bends
Name on the label and directions on the same print
Said he couldn't see it clearly as they [?]
Those puzzled picture pieces limp on broken jigsaw fittings
Power struggles said it need a couple more to fix the vision
The blunder that repeats until they spoon out of the prison
Drugstore cowboys, blazing guns, hope burglars
See the steam of salvation rising off of each burner
Either feed the foul patient or survive to seem hurt-up
Give him what he holds sacred and prescribe the beast murder
Thank you!
Thanks!!!
This is a very intricate song
a scaner darkly ...the beat is crazy
don't think he's lazy, a perfectionist probably
STUART PIKE Perfectionism kills creativity like mad. I hope he conquers it soon.
Maybe both
Even if he only drops a track here and there over the years he's still is a legend. Lyrically he his on another level. plus he is doing introspective think hip hop with a gritty Queens Burroughs vibe. keep on releasing tracks Despot!
Despot is one of the hottest hip hop artists, b. he needs to drop some hot shit already
One of the dopest, most slept on MC's doing it today.
this track is sick
Fuck, it's been years since I listened to this. Still so fucking fresh. Him and Blockhead work so fucking well. If they did an album it'll rival Float for sure.
One of my favorite tracks. He maybe my favorite emcee
the best show no doubt,your son is a lucky young man..real hip hop stars!they can only be bitten,never bit,El's production is the sound of a true pioneer.respect to you and your son.
El-P said he witnessed him working on it
He performed it on the RTJ 1 tour
Dude said “pretend you know the words”
Despot is like Tool. You have to wait.
But he's a lyrical prodigy and Maynard is just an angst-ridden man child.
hip hop may be disappearing, but Despot is gonna be its ghost haunting the mainstream forever.
haha this guy thinks Despot's ever gonna drop an album
I wanna believe too man
+Nohbdy S. I feel you, El-P even said he witnessed him working on it, I know Despot through a friend, His GF. and she doesn't understand either. I wish he would though.
thank you blockhead

"How many mg's TI cure a common cold,& how many more too help u forget your getting old?"
This is such a deep song
im glad blockhead has another talented artist to work with as an outlet so his production skills are heard... he brought the best out of aesop rock. im sure he will do the same for despot. all three of them can shine on their own, but blockhead's tracks are better when aesop or despot are on them, and aesop's and despot's tracks tend to be better when working with blockhead instead of other producers... both aesop and blockhead offer a hellava discography... DROP THE ALBUM ALREADY DESPOT!!
At this point, all you can do is hope.
Substance d .... A scanner darkly ??
Man when this shit frist came out I could not find it on RUclips or anywhere else the beat stabbed me in my frontal lobe shits dope this is the joint that made me like him cause at frist I didn't have it for this kid plus I love the fact he stays himself Brooklyn to the fullest!
I think this is one of his old joints... FiRe!!!
yess
Blockhead is fucking fantastic with his samples.
It was released in Def Jux Pharmacy. Nothing "unreleased" about it.
A SCANNER DARKLY. swag.
still bangs dude
Despot that ive never heard before, head exploding
Like him even more for this track. Big ups PKD reference
dayum..despot just doesn't fuck around ever.
I've been waiting for him to drop an album for 8 freaken years - WTF?!?!
How you feelin now? Hahaha
@@TommyGFPV LOL its been another 8 years since this person left this comment and Despot STILL has not released an album LOL
0o I Died In A Time Machine o0 I know lol
Soo that's 16 at this point?...
@@STANLEY2BRICKS Guys I think we at eighteen years now looool
they have a song together on meyhem lauren's mixtape "mandatory brunch meetings".
The enigma that is despot. question with this comment. Do you feel a freestyle has to be off the top of the head or can it come from an unreleased track or a written before the cypher. Just curious because it seems to be some strong debate over the "internets" on this topic. my answer is this as long as its real no ghost writes or stolen rhymes and its from the heart with flow I don't care.
I always defined a freestyle as off the top, but others say if they never heard the beat before it's a freestyle? Idk tho, like u say long as it's there shit and it's hardcore who cares right. I respect the art whatever way! 🖤
Despot jest kotem!!!
hes gotta be working on some long time secret album er some shit
+Keegs R he said the album will be so good that hes going to quit his career and never make music again
so you know its gonna be amazing
@@LizardScoreisnoturanium52 damn I think he ended up doing those things in the wrong order ☹️
amazing flow
#TidallyBeautifulChaos! Thank you for sharing this! #GraciasOtraVes 🍀🍃🖖🏼💖🖖🏼🍃🍀.
Song deserves more production value
Nice wrk....a subtle positive push
you are right dude
HELL YES...
I like the reference to a scanner darkly. and just addiction/prescription in general. but i was talking about the track d did with el cause i saw the still and thought that i paused the video.
lyrically good to me: syd barrett, nocando, tool, deftones, aes, eyedea
Who was making all those cosmic beats for Despot?
All of them are unique damn good.
This one was made by Blockhead
Darkfalls, I second that statement!
some time in 2043
keep fighting the good fight
yessir!!! also listen to King ME! amazing song
The mans got great standards.
if you try to rap about everything you ultimately water raw content down.
Respect.
Yeah he's really a pro at playin the ole long con hahaha
raw as fuck.
he needs to make a song with action bronson, that would be fucking beautiful.
Robin Trower sample? That's fuckin dope
#comingsooncomingnever unfortunately...
elaborate. his choice of words and the meaning behind them combined WITH the flow is amazing. i wanna know what lyrically good is by your standards. examples?
im buyin 3 dog
! I concur
The featured video is called "white boy drops sick beat" with a picture of a skinny kid with glasses in grade school, oh the irony
red head rapper ! cool
like, blockhead, who's done The Music Scene, ETC...??
The one and only. . . Uncle Tony
when is he dropping that lp? damn
this screams divorce
i longed for a shitspot album this bum
couldve changed my life yolo id have slip traded yo dope polos as it stands little dodo youre extinct as the momo down the street crash her jeep into a home tho if youre writin raps then arrange a home soon.
shouts out Philip K. Dick
has he recorded an album?
+Rick Davis no, try again in 4 years.
Yes. He played tons of new shit all the way back on the RTJ 2014 tour. He just won’t drop it.
751 views 😒 shame
lyrically Despot's not as good as his delivery. he's a shy boy and i dont know what he's afraid of. he's better than most the garbage but i don't wanna compare his talent to garbage. he can do better and i would love to see him do better.
Fuck off
This sucks
stick to justin bieber then ya ballbag
