i remember being sooo into pro era & 1999 when i was the same age as joey, since we were both born in 95. i remember how much listening to joey n steez talk & rap helped me realize truths about myself and find a ground of talented, intuitive people in my area to collab with. their story is crazy & inspiring n im glad i got to experience it.
Same man! 2012-2015 really as a lowkey golden era of hip hop. Life was good when TDE, Pro Era, Mac Miller, Beast Coast, Rocky, were taking over the game.
Me personally I don't think when he said steez thought he was dreaming was talking about drugs I think he means it in a more spiritual way I believe that steez traveled through spirituality so fast and saw the truth to all of the negative things in this world without someone explaining things to him he just got so deep to where he genuinely believed that he was something way bigger then just his physical form to a point where everyday he felt like he was dreaming in a physical realm and he wanted to wake up this is the problem with pyschedlics you can open your mind so much to the point to where it's bad for you and you'll never be the same because you see how corrupted and how failed of a society we are on this earth you see the lies and you see no compassion no love for others
I messed with Salvia Divinorium a while back. Nothing seemed real for about six months. I thought I would need to check into a psych ward. Thankfully I recovered, but psychedelics are no joke
STEEZ’s death is so bizarre to me. It seems really strange that there’s not a lot of information about it. I truly believe if STEEZ was still here, he’d be up there with this generation’s greats like Kendrick and Cole. STEEZ’s music connects with me and I’m not really sure why. It goes beyond just liking the way it sounds. I feel like his music is being sent to me. I’m not religious, but it’s a weird feeling to describe. I want to be able to rap as good as STEEZ one day. He was an incredible lyricist and he inspires me to keep making my own songs. I’m not a very good rapper yet, but I’ll keep practicing. I hope King Capital drops some day. I want to hear it so bad. RIP STEEZ, you’re one of my all time favourite emcees. Does anyone else feel like listening to STEEZ’s music is a spiritual experience?
I highly doubt he’d be up with Kendrick and Cole. He wasn’t marketable but Joey was and even Joey isn’t up there with the greats even though he should be. He was probably the most lyrically talented in the group Joey coming in second by a little bit but Talent doesn’t always guarantee mainstream success. Joey hasn’t even fully achieved that
@@zzzzf99309 Idk I feel like STEEZ would've made albums that are quality, plus from his interviews he wasn't too averse to making mainstream songs to spread the message so idk its debatable
@@Will-bn9km yeah I’m not debating his music quality I’m debating his ability to break into the mainstream. I don’t think he could, Joey was the closest thing to being able to break into mainstream success and not even Joey has achieved that. Joey is still very success though but he’s not mainstream but more than Steez.
RIP King Steez, he was the artist that kept me falling through serious depression back in high school for me. When I found out he died it devastated me.
Bro I’m only 25 I remember listening to Steeze back in 2010-2011 around there, that man helped me through school. Never met him but his music touched my soul.
Whoever's reading this, i pray that whatever you're going through gets better and whatever you're struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen
The Manager didnt like the rest of Pro Era and didnt want to sign them so he purposefully neglected the rest of the group thinking Joey was the only star. Basically bad businessman makes bad business decisions. Ends up destroying the artists he promised to support.
The industry is brutal. It’s controlled by people wouldn't forgive him for his symbol. Steez found out it’s not just about talent and skill; they need to be able to control you and your image- that’s what matters
I'm a latin american teen and I just discovered Capital Steez today through an IG post about how he could have been one of the greatest. When I read that he passed away the way he did, I immediately thought about what happend to Cancerbero, a legendary Venezuelan rapper that "jumped off a building in weird conditions". Take care of that type of artists guys, because they are taking them away from us. Try to learn about politics and be open to listen new perspectives, we all can make a change in our own lanes. Rest in Peace.
I don't love anyone like I love STEEZ a true mystic for his age I'm 23 now and like to think I'm pretty focused. He's an anomaly for how good he was so young and a staple of my upbringing. Finding every piece of information I could on him was my favorite thing to do growing up. But yeah the dude more than likely got betrayed.
This video also fails to mention STEEZ’s friend riot who took his own life when he was 16. They had a demo tape that exists somewhere I think. That must have had profound impact on him
it warms my heart to know people still have steez in there soul fr I know it sounds corny but if you really understand him you would have the same passion for him Samsun think you brother for sharing the knowledge on this I've been listening to steez for years and I never knew riot took his own life
In my opinion, it totally is. I believe celebrities and rappers specifically are at the forefront of people who have the most influence in the world. To understand what it takes to be successful - we have to look at how others have failed (or succeeded) and use it as a case study. Theres a lot we can learn from Steez and Joey Badass' journey.
I think if Capital STEEZ were still alive today he most certainly would’ve wanted to shed light on what he was going through personally in order to help others
@@louaista everyone has the right to privacy. If people are basing their life off of what a celebrity influences them to do then we have a major social issue
Why would they care about a dude who couldn’t break 1000 sales on his mixtape? He was an unmedicated, marijuana using schizophrenic. A recipe for disaster.
My intuition has always told me that Joey is not a good person, not genuine and with low morality. I'm not going to sit here and say that he had anything to do with it but I will say that even in 2022 10 years later we still are searching for answers to this great humans demise. And don't get me started on King Capital project still not being out and the reasons to why it isn't
Issa talks about it a bit on his album Tempus. Couldn’t imagine texting my friend who is about to take his life and try to talk to him about it then have people come out with crazy conspiracy theories about what happened. Sometimes you just can’t reach people. I used to think about those conspiracies and realized how fucked up they are to think. Given where he grew up and the things going on around him he found the only way out was to take his life. I had fun off some of those psychadelics too but they definitely started to take their toll on me and I could really see how it could have happened now. Depression sucks. Rest In Peace King CAPTIAL STEEZ
Steezes death was wild to me because I found out about him just a few months after his death and didn't even know he died until a few months after being a fan
There were more info on his death and a whole video clip of Steez sister threatening Joey with a knife after his death. I remember vividly hearing her telling Joey steez loved him and asked him how could he do it. Joey was just laughing.
It is heartbreaking to me that this young man wasn’t able to reach his full potential. I don’t know who murdered him but I would bet, and I don’t gamble, he was murdered so drill could thrive. He would have totally taken us back to a time when rap music uplifted, engaged and encouraged thought. That is the exact opposite of what the status quo wants for the youth. Tragic loss…in the words of Chuck D…fight the power ✊🏼
Rip to steez but nobody murdered him bro and this is coming from a nigga that grew up on park side in Flatbush with Joey badass and got to actually meet 47 , steez was type laced and weird not gonna lie and back in 2012 nobody was really listening to these Beast Coast Kids except white suburban kids drill would’ve taken off either way
Capital Steez was ahead of his time but came out at the wrong time.. I remembered, I started listening to bruh a whole year b4 he passed.. But I didn't know he passed until that summer.. When me n people were talking about new artist we listen too.. I was like shocked.. SmH.. Just seeing this today made me realize I forgot about bruh.. RIP BRUH.. Capital Steez Steez couldn't take change bcuz he loved to hard.. He was like a Pac want everyone to do better but not like Pac -- He didn't like change(If he didn't understand it).. Pac love hard n let his guard down around people he trust..
I feel this. I just introduced my husband to Capital Steez, I hadn't listened to him in time because it hurt so bad. I remember I was obsessed in 2011 and I was waiting for an album after AmeriKKan Korruption.. waited a year, heard nothing.. actively searched in 2013 to find out he died? That shook me. It's such a weird feeling to miss someone you never met.
One thing I will say the 47 logo wasn't really a pro era logo it was more of Steezs logo and Ideology. I also would say I think people that say it's Joeys fault, is incentive to joeys as a friend. And also incentive to his family as I bet they wish it wasn't real. Rip Steez, I love your videos just maybe wanted to chime in
I agree - a "logo" wasn't really the term. I loved the way you put it. The 47 ideology was dope as hell though! thanks so much and i appreciate you chiming in!
The world was going to end on 2012 on December 24th, Steez being a huge conspiracy theorist and being high at the time probably was the reason why he killed himself
Lowkey makes the most sense, but then why would he tweet “The end.”, wouldn’t his last tweet be something a bit more optimistic I think he knew what was he doing in some capacity
@@Will-bn9km Yeah I got the timing wrong, The world was supposed to end on the 22nd ig Steez was prepared for it and when it didn't happen he decided to do it himself either way I still don't know why he tweeted the end
I hear a lot about this idea that Steez felt bad because Joey got more promotion and was considered more marketable. People need to understand one thing about this claim: Steez would have had a place in hip hop no matter what. He didn't reach his peak lyrical ability and yet his fanbase has only grown over the years. Looking at the praise Steez gets now, it's clear to me that he would have always had a job working as a rapper.
Judging by his subject matter, it does t seem like he wanted to even be mainstream. It seems like he knew all that shit was fake and controlled, he just loved to rap and spread his messages of spirituality and symbolism. Yeah I know he was signed to a label, but I find it hard to believe he had mainstream aspirations considering his mindset. Dude was WOKE, and I mean the true sense not the plastic semantic people use for blue haired people today.
Good point. I was just noting that there would always be a fanbase for an artist like Steez. His spiritual themes would have attracted a niche audience. And he was so good at rapping that we would have always had a job making music. Dude could have even been a ghostwriter@@marcus7990
Exactly, he may not be getting some corny features with some singer who's popular for 5 minutes, he would be a true hip hop figure. Not a puppet for already which disgusting people to profit off. I could never see him going down the mainstream route, he's do it for the love and inner peace more than anything. If he got to far deep into that extremely brutal and weird world of the big corps it would have had a very bad effect on his mental health to an extent that is may have just drawn out the pain and confusion. Twisting his perception on what's real.
@@marcus7990He definitely wanted fame and money. One of the biggest reasons he became depressed was because his label didn't market him, and he wasn't nearly as successful as Joey. It's clear that he was very mentally ill.
He does say in one of the videos where they signing shirts for peep the aprocalypse joey gets free stuff all the time that he wish he get some stuff too. Seems so bummed out in video and distant
Feels like he understood the system was blocking him. His crew mates stuck with the system, he was trying to evolve. Just imagine someone like Joey with who you started the movement, sharing points of view, telling you all truths about the system, that things are not going to go the way you planned, that « we’re not changing the program, I’m playing my role in the industry. » The end. R.I.P
What if it wasnt him tweeting the end or whay if he agreed for joey and the others to kill him off and make it seem suicide ,because again,STEEZ SAID he would rather be killed by homicide than to go out without no pride as in hed rather be killed than to commit
Seems like Steez had real demons. That's why you don't do drugs at such a young age when your brain isn't fully developed he was just on another and deeper type of time and also seem like he caught the demon of jealousy and envy from his friend Joey
There is no conspiracy. No mystery. It's exactly as it seems. He wanted to be recognized, to be noticed. Realized he failed and that nothing mattered. The End.
Yeah i think it's just a sad story of someone putting everything they had into it something, being incredibly good and successful at it at the beginning, but ultimately not reaching as much success as they though they deserved. It also doesn't help when you're around people who entertain or validate all the spiritural nonsense you think. Like ffs, people talk about these rappers like they really had the metaphysics figured out at 19 from watching youtube videos. It's easy to see how his mind got fucked into thinking suicide was a good choice. They were all kids.
@@Lizard1582there’s nothing nonsense about spirituality white boy. Look at all the elite whites who steal spiritual concepts and rituals from us lil boy
They have to erase the truth, the light, the chosen ones here to expose whats really going on on Earth. That's what really happened, steez reached a point where he knew exactly who he is and his purpose. Divinely protected tho he left this realm peacefully.
More like joey jealous of him and took the limelight,bc steez didnt wanna make mainstream brainwashing music he wanted real hiphop,spreading poaitive spiritual lyrics,which the mainstream likes to suppress. This all makes sense,and juat proves joey sacrificed him!
A lot of people believe steez committed suicide cause he wasn’t getting the recognition that Joey was receiving idk if it’s true but if you listen to last straw it kind of add ups a bit and personally I think steez was better than Joey it’s just Joey fit the image the industry wanted steez reminds me of ODB both Spoke truths no matter how crazy other said they sounded and the industry just doesn’t accept that type shit but that’s my theory 🤷🏾♂️but who knows it could be something completely different whatever it is we lost a legend RIP STEEZ!!
Bro thank you!!! You’re the first person that I’ve seen make a reference to that track. When you hear it it’s very clear what was goin on and what happened.
On the real, Schizophrenia is serious. He most definitely suffered from it Psychedelic and cannabis use did not help underlying issues. I really do miss capital steez. So many years later I’m still writing 47 on stuff sometimes 😂
@@ceasefireforpalestine he said it so matter of factly like he was a doctor and was around STEEZ. Schizophrenia is serious but don’t be so quick to say that it could have been something else entirely but we’ll never know since he wasn’t properly diagnosed.
I’ve seen people hating on joeybada$$ saying he was d riding on steez and stole all of his stuff. I think Joey was inspired by steez but didn’t steal all of his stuff
@@Will-bn9km it's not hate it's seeing evil for what it is and you love to defend that evil being that was parasitically sucking from a loving being who was authentic and original it's not aimless just stating the fact that Joey used STEEZ talent only to his own benefit while STEEZ was alive and after he left
Mysterious? Conspiracy? Try depression an suicide.. It's not a mystery it's an epidemic. Cap was a prodigy but had major issues, Making this into some BS is denigrating his memory.. and incredibly stupid on top/.

@@Will-bn9km Yeah I got the timing wrong, The world was supposed to end on the 22nd ig Steez was prepared for it and when it didn't happen he decided to do it himself either way I still don't know why he tweeted the end
I hear a lot about this idea that Steez felt bad because Joey got more promotion and was considered more marketable. People need to understand one thing about this claim: Steez would have had a place in hip hop no matter what. He didn't reach his peak lyrical ability and yet his fanbase has only grown over the years. Looking at the praise Steez gets now, it's clear to me that he would have always had a job working as a rapper.
Judging by his subject matter, it does t seem like he wanted to even be mainstream. It seems like he knew all that shit was fake and controlled, he just loved to rap and spread his messages of spirituality and symbolism. Yeah I know he was signed to a label, but I find it hard to believe he had mainstream aspirations considering his mindset. Dude was WOKE, and I mean the true sense not the plastic semantic people use for blue haired people today.
Good point. I was just noting that there would always be a fanbase for an artist like Steez. His spiritual themes would have attracted a niche audience. And he was so good at rapping that we would have always had a job making music. Dude could have even been a ghostwriter@@marcus7990
Exactly, he may not be getting some corny features with some singer who's popular for 5 minutes, he would be a true hip hop figure. Not a puppet for already which disgusting people to profit off. I could never see him going down the mainstream route, he's do it for the love and inner peace more than anything.
If he got to far deep into that extremely brutal and weird world of the big corps it would have had a very bad effect on his mental health to an extent that is may have just drawn out the pain and confusion. Twisting his perception on what's real.
@@marcus7990He definitely wanted fame and money. One of the biggest reasons he became depressed was because his label didn't market him, and he wasn't nearly as successful as Joey. It's clear that he was very mentally ill.
He does say in one of the videos where they signing shirts for peep the aprocalypse joey gets free stuff all the time that he wish he get some stuff too. Seems so bummed out in video and distant
i remember that Christmas i made my mom sad talking about his death. was a big fan at like 17
Can they just release all of Steez’s work for us fans? It’s been 12 years.
Feels like he understood the system was blocking him.
His crew mates stuck with the system, he was trying to evolve.
Just imagine someone like Joey with who you started the movement, sharing points of view, telling you all truths about the system, that things are not going to go the way you planned, that « we’re not changing the program, I’m playing my role in the industry. »
The end.
R.I.P
What if it wasnt him tweeting the end or whay if he agreed for joey and the others to kill him off and make it seem suicide ,because again,STEEZ SAID he would rather be killed by homicide than to go out without no pride as in hed rather be killed than to commit
Seems like Steez had real demons. That's why you don't do drugs at such a young age when your brain isn't fully developed he was just on another and deeper type of time and also seem like he caught the demon of jealousy and envy from his friend Joey
yh right he was better than joey. joey has bad vibes steez was a gd kid
When I come down ima def play some capital steez today
"And after Steve's began watching a youtube series" Giant typo my dude
4:24 into the video
8:19 what is this melody 😭
N.A.S.A by underachievers
Capital STEEZ absolutely loved his mother and sisters. I can't see him ending his own life and leaving them with that sadness and loss.
They said he was born in 97, how do you get this so wrong?
Thought I was the only one who saw that😂
I was born in 97 lol wtf
There is no conspiracy. No mystery. It's exactly as it seems. He wanted to be recognized, to be noticed. Realized he failed and that nothing mattered. The End.
So real
Yeah i think it's just a sad story of someone putting everything they had into it something, being incredibly good and successful at it at the beginning, but ultimately not reaching as much success as they though they deserved. It also doesn't help when you're around people who entertain or validate all the spiritural nonsense you think. Like ffs, people talk about these rappers like they really had the metaphysics figured out at 19 from watching youtube videos. It's easy to see how his mind got fucked into thinking suicide was a good choice. They were all kids.
@@Lizard1582 you got a new point. Dammit. I just thought steez was smart enough to know spiritual play play with real life. Rip steez
@@Lizard1582there’s nothing nonsense about spirituality white boy. Look at all the elite whites who steal spiritual concepts and rituals from us lil boy
They have to erase the truth, the light, the chosen ones here to expose whats really going on on Earth. That's what really happened, steez reached a point where he knew exactly who he is and his purpose. Divinely protected tho he left this realm peacefully.
Hard truth is he’s dead bro
@@marguerilla yeah sure the vessel
didn’t really leave peacefully and i love steez
@@ski-mask-the-slump-god the exit wasn't, the decision was
@@shawly47 ending it all ain’t peaceful man it’s a horrible way to leave can’t be encouraging that
Background track at 1:00 ?
on sight instrumental
4:30 ,he was definately killed off,they dont want ppl spresding this info. They sacrificed him. If not he faked his death. Simple.
Moron he killed himself
Dope! 🎉
Also steez was talked to by the cops about those 47 stickers for possible "hate crime"
Good point
jak and steezs mixtape is insane
He died december 24,2012 not February 2012
This industry is shady
We are the indigo children
We gotta keep the truth alive
LONG LIVE STEEZ 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
im italian but i remember that time , in the beginings I thin about the hollywood death and if Joey was behind that.
Steez & Big L, the biggest ‘what if’s’ in hip hop.
More like joey jealous of him and took the limelight,bc steez didnt wanna make mainstream brainwashing music he wanted real hiphop,spreading poaitive spiritual lyrics,which the mainstream likes to suppress. This all makes sense,and juat proves joey sacrificed him!
Joey was using steez flow with more of an accent he wanted to be steez
Security let him up there
Long Live Steezy
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
"Just remember ALL CAPS when you spell the man name"
Rip STEEZ
47
8:29 what is this song plz🔥📖👁️🎧
RIP my nigga Steez
You know steez chose pro Era branding right. The i-ching hexagram 47 is Sacrifice
Huh
A lot of people believe steez committed suicide cause he wasn’t getting the recognition that Joey was receiving idk if it’s true but if you listen to last straw it kind of add ups a bit and personally I think steez was better than Joey it’s just Joey fit the image the industry wanted steez reminds me of ODB both Spoke truths no matter how crazy other said they sounded and the industry just doesn’t accept that type shit but that’s my theory 🤷🏾♂️but who knows it could be something completely different whatever it is we lost a legend RIP STEEZ!!
Bro thank you!!! You’re the first person that I’ve seen make a reference to that track. When you hear it it’s very clear what was goin on and what happened.
Then you got dyme dissing issa gold on "access granted" taking shots at some of the pros
Death is a good motivator not a ritual
Disrespectful
Long live Capital Steez
47 forever
Pro era forever
Peace!
It's not that hard to get his date of birth right
On the real, Schizophrenia is serious. He most definitely suffered from it Psychedelic and cannabis use did not help underlying issues. I really do miss capital steez. So many years later I’m still writing 47 on stuff sometimes 😂
"most definitely" ???
@@ceasefireforpalestine he said it so matter of factly like he was a doctor and was around STEEZ. Schizophrenia is serious but don’t be so quick to say that it could have been something else entirely but we’ll never know since he wasn’t properly diagnosed.
Don't spread disinformation about our brother STEEZ
@@chrish813 Fact they love using that schizo bs
Thank god for Dr. Fort Nite's diagnosis. You "definitely" put over 10 years of conspiracies at rest with this one. Good job doc.
Everyone should listen to last straw and tell me who he's talking about
Not just that listen to Black Krown
Listen to dyme a duzin access granted too
He was born in 93
I’ve seen people hating on joeybada$$ saying he was d riding on steez and stole all of his stuff. I think Joey was inspired by steez but didn’t steal all of his stuff
You wrong lmfao
@@trippymane432 joey literally says steez is his biggest inspiration
@@justbandile5625 talk is especially cheap from an industry puppet
@@trippymane432 holding all that hate in ur heart ain’t good for u dude u placing it in an aimless place
@@Will-bn9km it's not hate it's seeing evil for what it is and you love to defend that evil being that was parasitically sucking from a loving being who was authentic and original it's not aimless just stating the fact that Joey used STEEZ talent only to his own benefit while STEEZ was alive and after he left
Steez was from the future.
Joey blew up right after he died 🤣 we've seen this BEFORE.
That’s not true, Joey blew up before he died. Joey blew up off of 1999 and was out touring before he came back and steez took his own life
RIP Capital Steez stay up indigos
6:00 joey acting shady here,he was always a leader,follows him to then become the leader. He jealous ,clearly was involved in his death
Mate, this guy hasnt even got his birth year right...
Steez was born in 1993 not 1997
I have lost a friend before, if I had the millions Joey had now I would release the project and give the profits to his family cause that’s your bro
Ayyyy,we all have our 3rd open to some extent it can be bad and good. Im a crystal/indigo children
Fat Trell just hinted that it might be linked to shrooms in a NJ interview maybe he was going a lil too hard and just got lost I’ve seen it before
Where at
@@blndstudiosyt4537 no jumper interview
still don't trust joey
Lol bro look like Remy Ma 😂
Mysterious? Conspiracy? Try depression an suicide.. It's not a mystery it's an epidemic. Cap was a prodigy but had major issues, Making this into some BS is denigrating his memory.. and incredibly stupid on top/.
At the beginning how does the tweet time stamp add up to 47???
Some people will be adding x times x divide by x triple x and minus x to get whatever number they want to find.
Joey Badass sacrificed him for fame and fortune
Done research on his chain all devil related he's on a European tour come December over here in England I won't be attending can't listen to someone worshipping lucifer
Man shut up
Joey sacrificed him for fame
it's terrifying that people like you live and breathe while genuinely believing something as stupid as this
@@mazdaroadster-mx5it's more worrying people like you wander these realms cluelessly and aimlessly . . . you've now had a planDemonic and had some disclosure this year 👾✌🏽
But then all these conspiracies make me think are they false due to him saying the end. Or was it the ppl around him
